Usage:
Start By:
a. separate track assemblies
 |
At operating temperature, the hydraulic oil tank is hot and under pressure. Hot oil can cause burns. To prevent possible personal injury, release the pressure in the implement hydraulic circuits (boom, stick and bucket) before any hydraulic lines or components are disconnected or removed. |
 |
- a. Fully retract the rod in the stick cylinder.
- b. Adjust the position of the bucket so it will be flat on the ground when the boom is lowered.
- c. Lower the boom until the bucket is flat on the ground.
- d. Shut off the engine, and put the hydraulic activation control lever in the "Lock" position.
- e. Move the control levers for the boom, bucket, stick and swing through their full travel strokes. This will relieve any pressure that may be present in the pilot system.
- f. Slowly loosen the air breather cap on the hydraulic oil tank to release the pressure.
- g. Tighten the air breather cap on the hydraulic oil tank.
- h. The pressure in the hydraulic system has now been released. Lines and components can now be removed.
- b. Adjust the position of the bucket so it will be flat on the ground when the boom is lowered.
2. Release the pressure in the hydraulic system as follows:
2. Remove the access cover assembly from over the rear side of the final drive.

4. Disconnect hose assemblies (2) and (5) from the travel motor. Disconnect pipes (6) and (7) from the travel brake valve. Put plugs in the pipes and hose assemblies to keep dirt and debris out of the hydraulic system.
5. Remove twenty bolts (4) that hold the final drive to the undercarriage frame assembly.
6. Install suitable size forcing screws in two threaded holes (3) in the undercarriage frame assembly. Tighten the forcing screws evenly to loosen the final drive from the undercarriage frame assembly. Remove the final drive. The weight of the final drive is 651 kg (1435 lb).
NOTE: The following steps are for the installation of the final drive.
7. Be sure the mating surfaces of the final drive and the undercarriage frame assembly are clean and free of dirt and debris.

9. Fasten a hoist to the final drive, and put it in position in the undercarriage frame assembly. Be sure all mounting bolt holes are in alignment.
10. Put a thin coat of 9S3263 Thread Lock on threads of twenty bolts (4). Install twenty bolts (4) that hold the final drive to the undercarriage frame assembly. Tighten the bolts evenly.
11. Connect pipes (6) and (7) to the travel brake valve. Connect hose assemblies (2) and (5) to the travel motor.
12. Reinstall the access cover assembly over the rear of the final drive.
