Check the extendable stick for slop. Shim the
extendable stick pads in order to maintain an
acceptable fit and reduce slop.
Note: Do not apply an excessive amount of a
silicone based lubricant. Dirt can be attracted to the
lubricant and dirt can cause abrasion to the pad
assemblies and wear to the pad assemblies.
The extendable stick pads do not normally require
any lubrication. If the extendable stick becomes
noisy, a small amount of a silicone based lubricant
may be applied.
Adjustment for Top Upper Wear
Pad
1. Extend the extendable stick to one half of the
fully extended position.
2. Move the stick and move the boom down against
the ground. This will take pressure off the wear
pad.
