[QUOTE="AGoodSteward, post: 5996216, member: 145414"] My fav trick with a boom is to slide branches down the upper arm instead of throwing them. The elbow is usually out in free air. Use chain lube(aerosol) so it doesn't get gummed up. Our HR manual has all the grease specs and locations marked. Watched a guy one time with his groundie just bouncing their bucket up and down for 15-20 minutes. Definitely find somewhere to have it inspected. You never know what abuse it's seen. Get ground protecting sheets and keep them stashed onboard. Folks with well cared for lawns don't mind paying extra for not leaving ruts. Laser range finder so you can see clearences and reaches when bidding. [/QUOTE]
