Measurement, bearing clearance (removed)

1. Inner race
2. Dial gauge
3. Magnet base
4. Lift
5. Outer race

1. Put the slew gear on a flat surface and then set 3 magnetic bases on the outer race at 120° intervals.
2. Set 3 dial gauges on the inner race.
3. Lifting the outer race vertically, axial clearance is the movement between bearing races.
4. Read the values of dial gauges.

Installed condition
Clean the outer race of slew gear and the underside of undercarriage.
The slew gear wear is not uniform over the entire circumference.
To obtain the exact play, it is necessary to take two measurements and pivot the superstructure by 90°.
1st measurement

1. Position superstructure on center line of undercarriage.


2. Bear the digging unit on the ground until the wheels are partially lifted off the ground.
3. Place the magnetic base.
4. Adjust the dial gauge to zero at the underside of undercarriage and outer race of slew gear.
5. Gently lower the excavator onto the ground and raise the bucket to the level of the cab floor with arm extended.
Read the values shown by the needle on the dial gauge.
6. Bear the digging unit on the ground once again to check that the dial gauge pointer properly returns zero.

2nd measurement

 Position superstructure at 90° in relation to first measurement.


 Measure the clearance according to the method shown under paragraph (1st measurement).

Figure 2
Measurement, bearing clearance (installed)

1. Outer race
2. Superstructure

Measure the clearance twice in each position and record it in the table below.

Clearance read at 1st position of Clearance read at 2nd position of


superstructure superstructure
A (1st measurement)
B (2nd measurement)
Total A+B A+B
Average clearance Total / 2 Total / 2

If there is a large difference between measurements A and B, there is likely a mistake, therefore, repeat the measurement
several times.
NOTE!
The most important factor of slew gear failure is concerned with the axial clearance. Therefore, lubricate the bearing and
slew gear teeth periodically.

Before connecting the booster cables check the following:

 Size of booster cable and clip should be suitable for the battery capacity.
 Check cables and clips for breaks, corroded surfaces, etc.
 Make sure cables and clips are firmly secured.
 Keep the starting switch in “OFF” position, (both machines).
 The battery of the running engine must be the same capacity as that of the engine to be boost started.
 When starting from another machine do not allow the machines to touch.

Connect the booster cables in the following manner :

Figure 1
Connection, booster cables

1. Connect clip (1) of booster cable (A) to the battery positive (+) terminal of the machine to be boost started.
2. Connect clip (2) to the battery positive (+) terminal of the engine which is running.

4. Connect clip (4) to the upper structure of the machine to be boost started.

NOTICE
Make sure the clips are firmly connected to battery terminals. Start the engine with the fully charged battery, then
crank the engine being boost started.

When connecting the cables, do not allow the positive (+) and negative (–) terminals to make contact.

NOTICE
Make sure that the booster cable connections are correct. Connect the booster cable to the engine block as far as
possible from the battery. After the engine has started, the booster cables must be disconnected in the reverse
order.

Starting engine

1. Turn the key switch to “START” position and start the engine.
2. Cranking time maximum 30 seconds, wait minimum 2 minutes between cranking attempts.
3. After the engine has started, the booster cables must be disconnected in the reverse order.

Disconnect the cables as follows :
