Hi Dan,
This type of hoist is a first class lever. If you apply 4000lbs at end of boom connection point, the boom being 8ft long, then you would have 4000x8=32,000lbs at the 3pt connection.
That's alot of weight for a 3pt connection or the boom. Then start moving that load and that load weight can quickly triple(or more) in applied force or well exceed 100,000/lbs or just like having a 100000# hammer beating on the connecting pins.
Be very careful when dealing with distance and heavy weights.
