Opening & Closing Booms
Be attentive to opening, closing & parking of
hydraulically controlled booms at all times:
• Always check for clear and available
space before operating booms
• Be especially vigilant of bystanders or
power lines
• Regularly check for loose or damaged
structures or components. These can
be snagged or fail during operation
• Be sure a folded boom is properly
positioned and locked into position
before driving. A loose boom arm can
be very dangerous.
• Be aware that in opening or closing
a boom, it also changes the weight
distribution of a sprayer
• Never allow the boom to be operated
by untrained personnel.
