Rev. 9/9/2021 JIB-FM, MANUAL Assembly Instructions: Numbers in parentheses correspond to parts numbers in the exploded parts diagrams on pp. 3-5. Step 1: Create a foundation for the jib. The necessary minimum foundation requirements for each JIB-FM model 7 crane are provided in the diagrams and table below. When the foundation is adequately cured, install eight (8) /8” jam nuts on the anchor bolts. Wind them to the surface of the foundation.

Rev. 9/9/2021 JIB-FM, MANUAL Step 3: Install the roller assemblies on the roller pegs as shown below. Liberally grease the thrust bearing inside the socket. Then, install the socket over the top of the mast. Make sure that the seats within the thrust bearing by rotating the socket clockwise and counterclockwise. The socket should turn smoothly in both directions.

Rev. 9/9/2021 JIB-FM, MANUAL Function Tests: Verify that the jib operates normally by performing the tests below. If an issue is discovered, tag the crane “Out of Service”. Restore the crane to normal operating condition before returning it to service. 1. Test the bearing: rotate the boom in both directions. Make sure that the boom rotates smoothly. Listen for unusual noises while the boom rotates. If the boom wobbles or is unusually noisy, remove the boom and socket from the mast.

Rev. 9/9/2021 JIB-FM, MANUAL Connect the load to the hoist chain/cable, using appropriate rigging. Then, raise the load only as high as necessary. To rotate the boom, slowly direct the load to the desired location. Once the boom and hoist are properly centered above the work location, lower the load and disconnect it from the hoist. Inspections: Apply Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) crane inspection procedures in 29 CFR 1910.179).

Rev. 9/9/2021 JIB-FM, MANUAL Maintenance: At least once per month: 1. Check the mounting plate (base of the mast), the anchoring hardware, and the concrete foundation, particularly around the anchor bolts. Make sure that the mast is securely anchored (i.e. does not wobble). Confirm that anchoring hardware is in normal condition. 2. Examine the socket and the rollers attached to it. Confirm that both spring pins are securely in place. Each roller must be evenly worn and undamaged.
