Measure the total clearance between the boom cylinder and the frame at the pin bore. The total clearance of dimension (a) plus dimension (b) cannot be more than 1.0 mm (0.04 inch). If the total clearance is less than 1.0 mm (0.04 inch), the addition of shims between the boom cylinder and the frame will not be required. If the total clearance is more than 1.0 mm (0.04 inch), add the correct thickness of shims in order to obtain the required clearance.
Install the spacer and pin assembly (7) .
Use the following table to determine the correct shims.
