3.4 USING THE WHEEL KIT (8530908): After installing the Wheel Kit, it may be used to transport the Jib System. See
Section 2.6 for more information.
1. Turn the handle of the Wheel Jack clockwise until it comes into contact with the ground and raises the Base off the
ground. Do not raise the Base more than 2.0 in. (51 mm) off the ground.
2. Use the Leveling Indicators located on the Counterweight Base to verify whether the Base is level. The Base may be
transported after the Base has been determined to be level. See Figure 8.2 for reference.
;
Do not transport the system on uneven ground. A sloped or uneven surface could cause a loss of control.
3.5 SAFE WORKING AREA: The user must stay within the Safe Working Area (A) of the Jib Boom and must not work past
the end of the rail (B) or behind the Counterweight Base (B). The user must remain as directly below the Connection
Eye as possible. See Figure 9 for reference. Leaving the Safe Working Area to an Outside Location (B) is dangerous and
could result in serious injury or death. When working on either side of the M100 Jib System, keep the anchor point as
close overhead as possible. If a rotation stop is in place on the jib mount, never work past that rotation stop. See the
instruction manual for the M100 Jib Boom (5908371) for more information.
