Description of Change: A new accumulator group has been introduced for Motor Graders. The new hydraulic accumulator groups provide a vessel that complies with "Canadian Standards Association Boiler, Pressure Vessel, and Pressure Piping Code B51-09". The new accumulator groups are for use on the service brakes and on the blade accumulators that are used in mining applications. Reference Table 1, and Table 2 for the group numbers that are involved in this change.

Adaptable To: All Motor Graders that are built for Canada on 1January 2010 or after 1January 2010 will have the new hydraulic accumulators.

Note: The previous accumulators for the service brakes, and the previous accumulators for the blade should be used in all markets except the Canadian Provinces. The Canadian Provinces require a Canadian Registration Number (CRN) for pressure vessels and fittings on mobile equipment that are used in mining applications.
