Inspection (1000 hours)


When the wear pads are worn to 6 mm (0.23 in) or below  they should be replaced.
It is permissible to rotate the top wear pads 180° to prolong  service life, provided the contact surface is more than 6 mm  (0.23 in) thick. 

Note: If rotating the wear pad the grease nipples will have to  be swopped over.  Dismantling

Fit new lock tab B and fit nut C. 

11
Set the hydraclamp clearance as described in Sideshift  - Hydraclamp Clearance Setting.

Repeat procedure steps 5 to 11 for the bottom clamp.
The only difference on the bottom clamps is the wear
pad is on the opposite side of the rail from the top
clamp so bolt K need not be completely removed.
Note: If the wear pad is trapped between the rail and
carriage, lower the bucket to relieve the load on the wear  pad. 

13
Lift the bucket and set the carriage to the opposite end  of the travel, repeat the procedure for opposite side.

glass in position as shown W.

b Sit the bottom edge of the glass on the spacer

blocks as shown X.

Make the inside seal smooth:

a Wearing surgical gloves, dip your finger in a soapy

water solution.

b

Use your finger to make the inside seal smooth.

4

All exposed edges must be sealed using Black

Polyurethane Sealant (see Sealing and Retaining

Compounds).

5

Clean the glass after installation:

IMPORTANT: Use extreme caution when wiping the inside

of the new glass - pushing too hard on the inside of the

glass will affect the integrity of the bonded seal.

a Small amounts of sealant can be cleaned from the

glass using the 'Active Wipe 205'.

b Large amounts of excess sealant should be left to

'cure' (see Note 4) and then cut off with a sharp

knife.

Note 4: On completion of the glass replacement procedures,

the sealant 'curing' time is 30 minutes. This means that the

machine can be driven and used after 30 minutes, but it

MUST NOT be used during the curing period of 30 minutes.

c

Clean the glass using a purpose made glass

cleaner.

6

On completion of the glass installation procedures tidy

the work area:

a Remove ALL broken glass from the cab area.

b Remove the protective covers from the cab seat and

control pedestals.
