Using the Abaco AFJ25 or AFJ25B forklift boom is straightforward. First, make sure your forklift is a 2 or 2.5 - ton model. Attach the boom securely to the forklift. When operating, the driver benefits from great visibility, which helps with precise stone lifting and handling. The boom can be extended to a maximum of 99.25 inches. For the AFJ25, it extends 6 degrees high, and for the AFJ25 - B, it's 2 degrees high. The weight capacity ranges from 1,540lbs to 6,160lbs, so always check the weight of the load before lifting. Remember, all sales on these booms are final. For maintenance, regularly check the connections and moving parts of the boom. Keep it clean and lubricated to ensure smooth operation. If you need to handle heavier loads, consider the AFJ35 model.
