Boom Adjustment
Outer Boom Wing Alignment -
Unfolded Position
1. When adjustment of the inner booms is complete
the outer booms can now be aligned.
2. 24-30 m TriTech booms must be 30-50 mm and
33-36 m booms must be 50 mm forward of
the inner booms. Use a string line to assist with
achieving the correct measurements.
3. To align the outer booms, the cable adjusters and
boom stopper bolt are used. To pull the outer
boom forward, wind in the boom stopper bolt.
The turnbuckle that is connected to the cable
damper springs at the front of the boom must
also be shortened to maintain cable tension.
At the same time the rear turnbuckle must be
lengthened.
4. To adjust the outer boom rearward, wind out
the boom stopper bolt. The rear turnbuckle must
be shortened and the turnbuckle at the front
lengthened.
5. Once correct alignment has been achieved the
1
cable spring tension must be set so there is a 3
mm gap between the coils.
Required measurement at tip
varies depending on boom size.
See step 2 above.

Wind stopper bolt in to adjust
boom forward. Wind stopper bolt

NOTE: It is advised that all threads are lubricated
prior to making adjustments.
NOTE: If cable adjustments run out on the
turnbuckles, it is advised that you should contact
your dealer and purchase new cables.
NOTE: It is important that both wings are adjusted
the same. If one wing is adjusted further forward or
back than the other, the boom may not sit level.
NOTE: The rear cable is used for folding only, and
must not be tight when the boom is unfolded.
