The present invention pertains to a wear pad assembly for adjusting a position of a wear pad in a telescopic boom of a work machine, comprising a threaded boss, a threaded bolt configured for threaded engagement with the threaded boss and a wear pad connectable to the threaded bolt. The wear pad assembly further comprises locking means configured to lock the threaded boss and the threaded bolt in a first engagement position and at least a further engagement position. The present invention further pertains to a method of adjusting such a wear pad assembly, the wear pad assembly being mounted to a first telescopic boom segment such that the wear pad provides a sliding surface for a second telescopic boom segment, the method comprising the steps of unlocking the threaded bolt by disassembling at least a part of the locking means, rotating the threaded bolt from the first engagement position into the further engagement position, and locking the threaded bolt in the further engagement position by reassembling the disassembled locking means when the threaded bolt is in the further engagement position.
