2 GENERAL INTRODUCTION

The Bil-Jax 3522A Articulating Boom Lift (Figure 2-1) is a Summit

Series™ Trailer-Mounted Boom, designed and manufactured to position

personnel with their tools and equipment at overhead work locations.

The work platform load capacity is rated at 500 pounds. During all boom

operations, four extended outriggers support the unit.

The boom lift is battery powered and operated with electronic pushbutton

controls, a hydraulic power unit, a hydraulic gear motor and hydraulic

cylinders. The hydraulic power unit includes a reservoir, pump and

control valves. Three hydraulic cylinders elevate the lower boom, upper

boom and jib boom. A fourth cylinder extends a telescopic boom. A

master and slave cylinder maintain the work platform at level while

raising and lowering the boom. The hydraulic motor and mating worm

gear allow the boom to rotate 700º around a vertical axis.
