BOOM ARM ADJUSTMENT

Before adjusting the boom arm, lower the lifting hook about 12 in. This will provide enough slack in the strap to enable the adjustable portion of the boom arm (top tube) to be pulled out of the bottom tube to its farthest adjustment hole. See figure 8.

To adjust the boom arm:

1.Remove the bow tie cotter pin from the adjust- ment pin and remove the adjustment pin.

2.Slide the top tube in or out to the desired adjust- ment hole.

3.Align the adjustment holes of the top and bottom tube and reinsert the adjustment pin.

NOTE: Do not force the pin into the adjustment hole. Be sure that the strap is not pinched when inserting the pin.

L-BASE INSTALLATION

After determining the ideal spot for your lift to be permanently mounted, remove the entire lift from the vehicle except for the L-base.

1.Inspect the undercarriage of the vehicle where the lift L-base is located for obstructions that may hinder the installation of the five (5) mounting bolts that will secure the L-base to the vehicle. Ob- structions may consist of electrical wiring, gas tank, bumper mounts, or exhaust pipes. You may need to adjust the base extensions to clear obstructions. If possible, install the L-base with the base extensions fully extended. See figure 9.

The bumper mounts on some vehicles are gas pressured. DO NOT drill into them. They may explode causing severe injury.
