When fitting onto the rear of a timber frame which is fixed between the brickwork and under the lintel the “headroom” is the thickness of the timber crossbar (min 70mm) and the Low Headroom Gear will be required. In situations like this, the front of the motor boom is generally fixed into the rear of the lintel and an extended towing arm is used.
