SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR

When lifting parts or assemblies, make sure all slings, chains, or cables are correctly

fastened, and that the load being lifted is balanced. Make sure the crane, cables, and
chains have the capacity to support the weight of the load.

Do not lift heavy parts by hand, use a lifting mechanism.

Wear safety glasses.

DISCONNECT THE BATTERY CONNECTOR before doing any maintenance or repair

on electric lift trucks. Disconnect the battery ground cable on internal combustion lift
trucks.

Always use correct blocks to prevent the unit from rolling or falling. See HOW TO PUT

THE LIFT TRUCK ON BLOCKS in the Operating Manual or the Periodic Mainte-
nance
section.

Keep the unit clean and the working area clean and orderly.

Use the correct tools for the job.

Keep the tools clean and in good condition.

Always use HYSTER APPROVED parts when making repairs. Replacement parts

must meet or exceed the specifications of the original equipment manufacturer.

Make sure all nuts, bolts, snap rings, and other fastening devices are removed before

using force to remove parts.

Always fasten a DO NOT OPERATE tag to the controls of the unit when making repairs,

or if the unit needs repairs.

Be sure to follow the WARNING and CAUTION notes in the instructions.

Gasoline, Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG), Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), and Diesel fuel

are flammable. Be sure to follow the necessary safety precautions when handling these
fuels and when working on these fuel systems.

Batteries generate flammable gas when they are being charged. Keep fire and sparks

away from the area. Make sure the area is well ventilated.

NOTE: The following symbols and words indicate safety information in this
manual:

WARNING

Indicates a condition that can cause immediate death or injury!

CAUTION

Indicates a condition that can cause property damage!

Description and Operation

General

This section has the description and repair procedures for the boom assembly. This section also has removal,
disassembly, cleaning, inspection, assembly, and installation procedures for the dampening cylinder, extension
cylinder, and lift cylinders.

Description and Operation

BOOM

The boom is the support for the attachment/rotator
attachment. See Figure 1. The boom pivots on two
support towers at the back of the lift truck. Two lift
cylinders mount to the boom and the lift truck in
front of the support towers and allow the operator
to raise or lower the boom. The boom has an inner
section that can be extended from the outer section
to allow the attachment to reach over one container
to a container behind it. The outer boom section has
the pivot and lift cylinder mounts. The inner section
rides on wear plates and is fastened to the rod end of
the extension cylinder by a pin. The shell of the ex-
tension cylinder has wear pads at the front that ride
on the inside of the inner boom. The back end of the
shell mounts to the back of the outer boom by a pin
and bushings.

The boom has a yoke at the inner end that connects
to the attachment/rotator attachment. The attach-
ment pivots on pins in the yoke, but the movement
is controlled by the dampening cylinder that is at-
tached between the boom and the attachment.

The hydraulic hoses for the dampening cylinder
and for the attachment are held in a support chain

that keeps the hoses and wiring from bending at
the wrong angles when the boom is extended or
retracted.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

The boom lift cylinders and the boom extension cylin-
der are all double-acting cylinders. The boom cylin-
ders are controlled by two parallel hydraulic valves
mounted on the lift truck. A large volume hydraulic
pump and a flow divider provide enough oil flow to
operate the boom cylinders at full speed at all engine
speeds. The hydraulic system for the boom cylinders
is described in the manual for the lift truck.

Each of the two lift cylinders and the extension
cylinder has a valve mounted on the cylinder to
prevent any movement of the rod until there is hy-
draulic pressure at the pressure port. The oil from
the opposite side of the cylinder cannot return to the
tank until there is pressure at the other port. This
arrangement prevents even the smallest movement
of the rod caused by leaks in the cylinder.

CLEAN

WARNING

Cleaning solvents may be flammable and toxic
and can cause severe skin irritation.

When

using cleaning solvents, always follow the
solvent manufacturer’s recommended safety
precautions.

WARNING

Compressed air can move particles so that they
cause injury to the user or to other personnel.
Make sure the path of the compressed air is
away from all personnel. Wear protective gog-
gles or a face shield to prevent injury to the
eyes.

Clean all parts in solvent and remove residual sol-
vent or allow the solvent to evaporate.

INSPECT

Inspect the parts of the extension cylinder for dam-
age, rust, or wear. Carefully inspect the rod sur-
faces for dents and scratches. Verify that the internal
stroke surfaces of the cylinder shell and the grooves
for the seals do not show any nicks, scratches, or
other damage. Repair or replace parts as needed.

CAUTION

Be careful not to damage the finished surface
of the piston hose when installing the piston
hose into the cylinder shell in a horizontal po-
sition (parallel to the cylinder shell).

3.

Lubricate the cylinder shell bore with clean hy-
draulic oil. Put the piston hose assembly into the
cylinder shell.

enough to support the cylinder in a horizontal
position.

2.

Drain the remaining hydraulic oil out of the lift
cylinder.

3.

Disassemble the guide using a pin wrench to un-
screw the guide counterclockwise. See Figure 19.
