Me either but my guess is there's a knob on the back.

Well it appears the chain is only to extend the innermost section, from other
pics I think the first section is extended using gear & racks like 8460.

Yeah, interesting the pieces are in white not yellow. But maybe that's just for
the photo. And yes I like the bike and the forklift too - that's an interesting
rear shock on the bike. I wonder if I could fit a 2-speed gearbox in there...
And the forklist looks like a 3 section lifter too, sweet!

| Could you explain to me how the chain would be used in extending the boom sections? I am very curious (if possible, could you post a few drawings or sketches?). Thanks. (20 years ago, 15-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic)
