NOTE: |
This Revised Service Letter replaces the 04Sep2015 (Revised 06Oct2015) Service Letter. Changes have been made to the Affected Product. Serial numbers DJX1391-1393, 1512-1515, 1526-1528, and 1530 have been identified as suspect motors and included in the Service Letter. |
The existing 2 speed spool will fail to shift properly on certain 305E2 and 305.5E2 Mini Hydraulic Excavators. The drive motors may experience automatic shifting issues when counter-rotating, climbing an incline, or performing a function that requires low speed operation. |
No parts needed for this program |
The existing 2 speed spool will need to be removed and replaced with the correct spool.
The replacement parts are not serviceable through the normal Caterpillar distribution channels. Contact your Technical Communicator (TC) to open a service request to the Mini Hydraulic Excavator (MHE) Product Group Support Team in order to procure the necessary replacement parts. The replacement spool will be shipped as a complete part, and the plug will be shipped with an O-ring seal installed.
Note: Do not attempt to procure the parts through the normal Caterpillar parts distribution. The parts to complete the Service Letter will be supplied from the Athens facility.
Refer to SEHS0424, Special Instructions, "Rework Procedure for Replacing the 2 Speed Spool for the Travel Motor on Certain 305E2 CR Mini Hydraulic Excavators", for the Rework Procedure. |
