Jib Backstops 1. Use shims (2) as required to equalize the travel distance of the rear jib backstops on the right and left side of the attachment. Place the shims (2) between the rear backstop inner pipe (1) and rear backstop outer pipe (3). In the erected position, at the 5 jib offset position, the rear backstop travel is approximately 0.5 in (12.7mm ). Once the spacers are added to adjust the backstops so they contact simultaneously, tack weld the spacers to the outer pipe to hold them in place. 2. Repeat process on front backstops. In the erected position, at the 5 jib offset position, the front backstop travel is approximately 10 in (25.4cm).

Operator's Manual
The crane serial number is written on the Crane Rating Manual. The Crane Rating Manual is located in the upper cab. The crane serial number should always be furnished when ordering parts for the crane, or when corresponding with the distributor or factory regarding the crane. The serial number is the only method the distributor or factory has of ensuring that the correct parts will be furnished.
In the event the serial number can not be found on the Crane Rating Manual, a number is stamped on the bumper on the left side of the carrier and on the front face of the upper frame between boom foot lugs. This number can then be used to identify the crane.
