Blade Sideshift Cylinder

Usage:

Remove And Install Blade Sideshift Cylinder (If so equipped)

NOTE: Illustrations shown are of a 12G.

1. Extend the blade to the right.

2. Remove the pin that holds cylinder rod (1) to bracket (3) on blade (2).

3. Retract the rod (1) into the cylinder. Put blocks (4) in position between rod (1) and bracket (3).

4. Move the blade far enough to the right to get access to the blade sideshift cylinder.

5. Put floor jack (11) in position under sideshift cylinder (12).

6. Disconnect two oil lines (5) on the sideshift cylinder (12).

7. Remove bolt and nut (15). Remove pin (14) from bracket (10).

8. Fasten a hoist to bracket (10). Remove cotter pin (16) and nuts (17) and (6). Remove bracket (10). The weight of bracket (10) is 29 Kg (64 lbs.). Make a note of the washers (13) between the bracket (10) and beam (7) during removal.

9. Remove the sideshift cylinder (12) from machine. The weight of the cylinder is 34 Kg (75 lbs.).

NOTE: The following steps are for installation of the sideshift cylinders.

10. Put sideshift cylinder (12) in position on floor jack (11). Position the cylinder under the circle assembly with floor jack (11).

11. Install washers (13) on the shaft (if removed). Fasten a hoist to bracket (10) and position it on the machine. Install nut (17). Tighten nut to 0.00 mm (.000 in.) clearance. Back off one slot and install cotter pin (16).

NOTE: Use washers (13) between bracket (10) and beam (7) of the circle assembly, to achieve clearance of 1.8 mm (.070 in.) maximum.

12. Install nut (6) and tighten to a torque of 1625 ± 55 N·m (1200 ± 40 lb.ft.).

13. Install pin (14) and bolt and nut (15) thru pin (14) and bracket (10).

14. Connect two oil lines (5) to the sideshift cylinder (12).

15. Remove 3 bolts (9) and plate (8).

16. Extend side shift cylinder to the right. Fasten a chain (18) to the rod end (1) and bracket (3). Pull blade (2) into position in bracket (10).

17. Install strip (20) and shims (19) into bracket (10). Shim as required to obtain a clearance of 0.13 to 0.90 mm (.005 to .035 in.). Install plate (8) and bolts (9) on bracket (10).

NOTE: To find minimum clearance, sideshift blade (2) through the full range with shims divided equally as possible between top strip (20) and bottom strip (21).

18. Remove chain (18) and position rod end (1) of sideshift cylinder into bracket (3).

19. Install the pin that holds the rod end (1) to bracket (3). Install the bolt and the nut that holds the pin to bracket (3).

20. Fill the hydraulic tank to the correct level. See the Operation and Maintenance Manual.
