5.5 ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION OF THE BOOM
1.
Take a 2 (or 3) meter boom and put the "U" shape profile on it at one end.
2.
Emboss the "U" shape profile with the hub using the screws supplied, so that the boom is in vertical position and with the
protective rubber seats facing the direction of the movement of the boom (Fig.21).
3.
Put the cover (with the LED strip cables through if you use the LIGHTS KIT) on the bottom end of the boom.
4.
Unlock the motor with the hexagonal key provided and bring the boom manually in horizontal position (Fig.22). WARNING!
This operation brings the spring in tension and could be very dangerous.
5.
When the boom is in horizontal position, lock the motor with the key and then release the boom gently. Depending on the
internal position of the motor, the boom may rise slightly when released.
6.
Insert half of the coupling in the boom, if necessary help yourself with a plastic-head hammer (Fig.23-A).
7.
Drill two Ø 5mm holes in the boom with the drill at the groove on the joint, at least 50 mm apart from each other starting from
the boom head (Fig.23-B).
8.
Make a Ø 10 mm socket on the holes just made and fix with two screws supplied the coupling to the boom.
9.
Insert in the coupling the second pole of 2 (or 3) meters, if necessary help yourself with a plastic-head hammer.
10. Drill two Ø 5 mm holes in the second section of the boom with the drill at the groove on the joint, at least 50 mm apart from
each other starting from the beginning of the boom (Fig.23-C).
11. Make a ø 10 mm socket on the holes just made and fix with two screws supplied the coupling to the boom.
