Removing the jib:
- Position the boom and jib as shown in figure 1. Make sure the boom is positioned slightly above horizontal. This makes the jib easier to turn.
- Remove the two pins from the left-hand side of the hinged section of the jib (see figure 2).
- Rotate the jib 180° (see figure 3).
- Secure the D-shackle on the main boom to the eye on the jib (figure 4). Raise the jib when you do this, until it can be secured in the D-shackle. Secure the D-shackle (see figure 5).
- The jib is now suspended in the D-shackle and can be moved easily.
- Remove the two pins from the right-hand side of the hinged section of the jib. Lower the jib when you do this so that it is easier to remove the pins.
- Use the shaft on the underside of the boom to guide the jib into the appropriate section of the main boom (figure 6) and secure it in position (figure 7).
- Secure the lever on the hook on the jib and lock it into place (figure 8).
- Disconnect the hydraulic hoses (figure 9) and the power plug (figure 10). Secure the loose hoses to the jib.
- The fixed section of the jib can be removed from the main boom, if necessary, by removing the pin (figure 11) and manually pulling the section out of the main boom (figure 12). It is also possible to work with the compact crane if the fixed section of the jib is still in the boom.
- To install the jib, perform the steps in reverse order.
- Do not forget to secure the pins!
