Boom Adjustment
Vertical Boom Alignment -
Unfolded Position
When the boom is in the working position, the inner
and outer boom should be level or slightly increasing
in height from the centre section to give a consistent
and even spray application height. A new boom
may be susceptible to stretching or sagging as the
components are worn in. Several adjustment may be
required in the first 12 months of operation until the
boom settles.
INNER BOOMS
• The boom centre section must be level with the
chassis before any boom adjustments are made.
The centre of the centre section should line up
with the centre of the Paralift when look from
the rear. This can be done by either shortening or
lengthening the centre section adjuster bolt at the
top delta links, or by adding weight discs to the
cable drums.
• The inner booms must be adjusted first so
they are the same height as the centre section
or slightly increasing in height from the centre
3
section (to allow for boom stretch) .These
adjustments are made by lengthening or
shortening the tilt adjusters on the tilt cylinder.

• To lengthen or shorten the tilt adjusters, the

necessary.
