Mounting procedure:

1. Remove Paint Boom from packing box and visually inspect for damage. Locate the two piece mounting bracket with four button head bolts as well as the Guide Marker chain.


2. Attach the two mounting brackets to the right side (as you face it from the front) of the E-100 horse-shoe support rod. The vertical post bracket is mounted on the back-side of the vertical support rod (handle bar side). The second bracket is attached to the front side of the support rod with the four button head bolts using 3/16" hex wrench. There is a slight gap between the brackets when tight.


3. Loosen the setscrew (lower left corner of the 4" x 24" paint box) with a regular screwdriver, then sliding the 1/8" hex wrench through the slot (curved end pointed in the 10 o'clock position). Tapping required to pass by the Philips head screw. Tighten the setscrew. Slip the yellow connector with chain over the 1/8" hex wrench. Adjust hex wrench in or out as necessary to avoid traveling over paint stripe.

4. The Paint Boom is attached by sliding the square vertical tubular section over the vertical mounting post. The fit should be snug with the painted post.

5. Locate the package with Quick Disconnect parts, hose camps, and Teflon tape.

6. Cut the 2 hoses just above the 90-degree barb fittings on the T-connector block on right side of unit just behind the paint shoe assembly.

7. Remove the T-connector block by using adjustable wrench, turning counter clockwise.

8. Loosen setscrew below block holding the pipe connector for the T-connector with 5/32" hex wrench. Slide pipe to outside (1/4" to 1/2") and re-tighten setscrew. This provides more clearance to the outside for 90-degree connector with female quick coupler attachment.

9. Apply Teflon tape to pipe connector end, about three wraps. Connect and tighten the 90-degree connector with quick disconnect coupler on pipe connector using adjustable wrench turning clockwise until snug (about 5-7 revolutions). The quick disconnect coupler should be parallel with deck and pointing toward the front of the unit.




10. Remove hose camps and hose from T-connector.

11. Tighten the 90-degree barbed connector on the right side of the T-connector 180-degrees.

12. Remove the 90-degree barbed hose connector from the left side of the T-connector.

13. Reapply Teflon tape to barbed hose connector and connect to the center port of the T-connector with adjustable wrench so the opening is facing up, same direction as barb connector on right side of T-connector.

14. Connect and tighten the pipe fitting on the male quick coupler to the vacant port on the T-connector using adjustable wrench (tighten 5-7 revolutions).

15. Add both hose clamps to hoses leading to the spray nozzles.

16. Reconnect spray hoses to 90-degree barbed fittings. Attach front hose to front barbed fitting closest to front wheel. Attach rear hose to center T-connector. Adjust hose clamp over barbed connector and tighten with regular screwdriver. When using the Paint Boom the paint shoe connection can be wrapped around and held between rear hose and vertical nozzle assembly.

17. Attach the quick disconnect male hose connecter to the quick disconnect on the right side of the unit just behind the paint shoe assembly.

18. By using the right hand control cable you are able to activate the two spray nozzles just like the spray shoe assembly operation.
