Personal injury can result from hot oil or hot components. At operating temperature, oil is hot and under pressure. Hot oil can cause burns. Remove the fill cap only when the engine is stopped, and the fill cap is cool enough to touch with your bare hand. Do not allow hot oil or components to contact skin. |
- Drain the hydraulic oil from the hydraulic tank into a suitable container. The hydraulic tank contains approximately
420 L (111 US gal) . Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, SEBU7173, "Hoist, Torque Converter and Brake Tank Oil - Change" for the correct procedure. - Position a suitable container under manifold (1) in order to contain hydraulic oil for storage or disposal.
- Remove two nuts (2) and the washers. Disconnect wiring harness (3) from the filter bypass switch.
- Disconnect hose assembly (4).
- Remove manifold (1).
- Repeat Steps 2 through 5 in order to remove the remaining manifold.
Note: Cleanliness is an important factor. Before the removal procedure, the exterior of the component should be thoroughly cleaned. This will help to prevent dirt from entering the internal mechanism.
Note: Put identification marks on all hose assemblies, on all tube assemblies and on all wire harnesses for installation purposes. Plug all hose assemblies and all tube assemblies. This helps to prevent fluid loss and this helps to prevent contaminants from entering the system.
