Hold the boom fold switch for a few seconds after the first
boom has folded completely to give the other boom the
chance to match the fully folded position.

COMMON SOLUTION
Adjust the boom stopper bolt
Lubricate all boom pivots
Adjust fold cylinder mounts
Unfold booms completely and hold switch for
a few seconds. Then, fold booms completely
and hold switch for a few seconds. Do this
multiple times as necessary to purge any air
out of the hydraulic lines.
Fold the boom out and note the position
the outer boom is in. Fold the boom in to
transport position and note position outer
boom is in. Follow the table below to adjust
boom so it sits level in the out (work) position
and to have the bottom chords sitting parallel
in the folded (transport) position
Reduce the hydraulic flow to the folding
