I have a customer that has a Shuttlelift 3330D carrydeck that has had welding done to the boom (the tabs that pin the point section to the second section, no pictures unit located in chemical plant) when asked about documentation proving that the repair was done to Shuttlelift specs it took him three months to come up with this piece of paper that reads
quote:{ To prepare the tabs for welding you will have to remove all paint grind metal clean. Use 7018 low hydrogen rod to re-weld the tabs back in place, no welder Certification is required to complete this job.}
The tabs are not ever used, but when re-welded on boom they cut into the top tip of both sections of boom. I e-mailed Manitowoc but no reply yet, just wondering if any one has had to do this before, and would welcome any advise. Thanks Mike
