Recommended boom and luffing jib raising and lowering procedure:
999 SERIES 1 must be equipped with 149,000 lb (67 860 kg) crane counterweight, 999 SERIES 2 must be
equipped with 184,600 lb (83 730 kg) crane counterweight and 44,000 lb (19 960 kg) carbody counterweight and
999 SERIES 3 must be equipped with 219,600 lb (99 610 kg) crane counterweight and 80,000 lb (36 290 kg)
carbody counterweight for raising and lowering various boom and luffing jib combinations. Refer to luffing jib
rigging assembly No. 196199 (Boom No. 22EL) or No. 196200 (Boom No. 82) without intermediate fall or
No. A09286 (Boom No. 22EL) or No. A09287 (Boom No. 82) with intermediate fall for boom and luffing jib make-
up of inserts, pendants and miscellaneous parts, etc.
Three methods may be used to raise and lower boom and luffing jib combinations, depending on length.
A. Layout In-Line Method
Boom and luffing jib are assembled in layout, end-to-end, position. Slowly raise boom until luffing jib stop strut
is just clear of ground. Attach luffing jib stop pendants and unpin luffing jib stop inner strut from retracted
position. Slowly raise boom until luffing jib stop strut is fully extended and pins engaged (approximately 168
degree boom-to-luffing jib angle). Tighten luffing jib suspension with luffing jib hoist. Boom and luffing jib can
then be raised simultaneously using only the boom hoist. Luffing jib radius must be within capacity chart before
swinging over side of machine when raising over end of blocked crawlers. Reverse this procedure when
lowering boom and luffing jib.
Boom and luffing jib combinations in following tables may be raised and lowered using layout in-line method.
For jib lengths shown with (c), machine must be equipped with lowerworks jacking cylinders when boom
catwalks are attached.

Luffing Jib Raising Procedure
Luffing Jib No.135 On Boom No. 82 or 22EL
B. Layout Jack-Knife Method:
(Longer boom and luffing jib combinations must be raised and lowered using this method)
Raising:
Boom and luffing jib are assembled in layout, end-to-end, position. Slowly raise boom until luffing jib stop strut
is just clear of ground. Attach luffing jib stop pendants and unpin luffing jib stop inner strut from retracted
position. Slowly raise boom until luffing jib stop strut is fully extended and pins engaged (approximately 168
degree boom-to-luffing jib angle). Boom is then raised while luffing jib point wheels are allowed to roll on
ground. Tension should be applied to luffing jib hoist to keep luffing jib strut off luffing jib during boom raising.
Boom up until boom-to-luffing jib angle reaches value specified in table below or vertical, whichever occurs first.
Tighten luffing jib suspension with luffing jib hoist. Boom and luffing jib are then raised together using boom
hoist until boom reaches desired boom operating angle. Luffing jib radius must be within capacity chart before
swinging over side of machine when raising over end of blocked crawlers.
Lowering:
Position boom at 75 degrees prior to lowering luffing jib. Lower luffing jib until boom-to-luffing jib angle reaches
value specified in table below. Lower boom until luffing jib point wheels contact ground. If luffing jib is hanging
vertical, raise luffing jib a few degrees forward of vertical. Continue to lower boom while luffing jib rolls along
ground. Keep enough tension on luffing jib hoist to keep luffing jib strut off luffing jib. Stop lowering boom when
luffing jib stop pendants start to go into tension (approximately 168 degree boom-to-luffing jib angle).
Disengage luffing jib stop strut pins and lower boom to retract luffing jib stop inner strut. Pin strut in retracted
position and unpin luffing jib stop pendants. Rotate luffing jib stop struts forward and lower boom and luffing jib
to ground.

Boom and luffing jib combinations in following tables require layout jack-knifing to a specified boom-to-luffing jib
angle for raising and lowering. Boom lengths shown with (a) require only the middle two sheaves in lower boom
point. All other sheaves must be removed from lower boom point. Boom lengths shown with (b) require lower
boom point to be removed. For jib lengths shown with (c), machine must be equipped with lowerworks jacking
cylinders when boom catwalks are attached.

Luffing Jib Raising Procedure
Luffing Jib No.135 On Boom No. 82 or 22EL
C. Fold Under Jack-Knife Method:
Raising:
Boom and luffing jib are assembled in fold under position. Slowly raise boom; luffing jib point wheels will roll along
ground. When luffing jib hinge pin is 30 ft (9,1m) off ground, connect luffing jib pendants. Move luffing jib top wire rope
guide to working position. Tighten luffing jib suspension with luffing jib hoist. Slowly raise boom until luffing jib is vertical
and luffing jib point wheels are clear of ground. Tighten luffing jib suspension with luffing jib hoist. Boom and luffing jib
are then raised together using boom hoist until boom reaches desired boom operating range. Luffing jib radius must be
within capacity chart before swinging over side of machine when raising over end of blocked crawlers.
Lowering:
Position boom at 75 degrees prior to lowering luffing jib. Slowly lower luffing jib to vertical. Lower boom until luffing jib
point wheels are just clear of ground. Slowly boom down and assist luffing jib point wheels in fold under direction. Boom
down until luffing jib hinge pin is 30 ft (9,1m) off ground. Disconnect luffing jib pendants. Move luffing jib top wire rope
guide to stowed position. Raise luffing jib strut with luffing jib hoist until luffing jib strut is inline with luffing jib. Lower
boom and luffing jib to ground.
Boom and luffing jib combinations in following tables may be raised and lowered using fold under jack-knife method.
Boom length shown with (a) requires only the middle two sheaves in lower boom point. All other sheaves must be
removed from lower boom point. Boom lengths shown with a (b) require lower boom point to be removed. For jib
lengths shown with(c), machine must be equipped with lowerworks jacking cylinders when boom catwalks are attached.
