Boom pole and top link

[jmc]

As an aside, you have to look closely at the drawing to see that the A-frame is hinged, not welded, to the boom. I wonder if anyone has ever made that mistake...

How about adding a hydraulic top link for additional functionality?

Just a random thought.

I have a boom pole that I use with my 2720 and I have a hydraulic top link from Fit Rite. It works fantastic with the boom pole. I can raise/lower with the 3PT or just run the top link in and out. The hydraulic top link also allows for very slow and precise load adjustments.
