My boom lift nearly went KaBOOM! How does a 3 section boom telescope mechanism work? I build a model and explain the mechanism in detail. Then we move on to inspecting and fixing the fire damage. Lots of wire repair, several hydraulic hoses, a grease hose, and some cleanup and...does it work?

HEY ENGINEERS! - Regarding the chain tension, the tensioners are torqued to 50 ft-lbs, and it's a 3/4" 10 TPI thread. What would the max tension on the extend chains be assuming the lift is pointing straight up, the fly boom and basket weigh 1200 pounds, and there's 1000 pounds in the basket, for a total of 2200 pounds being lifted?
