The documentation of an TEREX Mining machine includes: the operating instructions the spare-parts list the technical handbook

endanger the lives of persons in contact with it damage the machine and other property.

The present brochure does not contain the specifications of auxiliary units for the operation of additional or optional equipment or the specifications of individual machines. The refilling quantities specified for consumables are approximate quantities which are intended as a help for planning consumable requirements. Each unit is equipped with suitable checking devices, e.g. dipstick or checking plugs, permitting the operator to check proper filling of the units.

The hydraulic excavator must be stopped immediately on any damage being suspected or occurring to ensure that the safety of the operator, of other persons at the place of use or of other material property is not compromised. All components of TEREX machines are carefully co-ordinated. Trouble-free operation and a long service life can only be achieved with original TEREX spare parts.

Rules for safety at work

Personnel
Personal protective working clothing: gear and

Personnel
The machine must not be started by unauthorized persons. It must therefore be secured. Observe the accident prevention regulations. The hydraulic excavator may be operated, serviced or repaired only by specially trained and authorized personnel with the appropriate technical know-how. If such know-how is lacking, meticulous instruction must be given by experienced personnel, e.g. from TEREX. The personnel must have read and understood the operating instructions and in particular the chapter Fundamental Safety Instructions. Only such persons may start up the machine during assembly work in order to adjust the attachments. Incorrect operation of the machine or the attachments may give rise to life-threatening situations. During all works, always observe the start-up and shut-down procedures prescribed in the operating instructions.

Wear a safety helmet, safety footwear and gloves. Wear closely fitting working clothing when working on the machine. Loose, wide garments may catch on machine parts and result in injury. If the work to be carried out requires auxiliaries, e.g. marshallers, the competences of each individual helper must be clearly defined beforehand. The individual responsibilities must be meticulously observed to avoid unclear competences endangering safety.

UNDERCARRIAGE

Tools and auxiliaries

Tools, hoists, slings, trestles and other devices must be in a reliable, safe state. Metal splinters may cause injury when attachment bolts are being driven in or out. A brass or copper mandrel should therefore be used for this purpose, and goggles must be worn. For climbing onto or off the machine, use only the ladders, steps, platforms and handrails provided for this purpose. Always keep ladders, steps and platforms in a non-slip state. Remove any oil, grease, earth, clay, snow, ice and other foreign matter immediately.

Systems and units (e.g. pipes, accumulators, etc.) must be properly depressurized before being opened. Protective devices on moving machine parts may be opened or removed only when the drive unit is stationary and protected against inadvertent starting. Before recommissioning, all protective devices must be refitted. Before carrying out assembly work, the machine and the equipment must be secured against inadvertent starting, e.g. by placing chocks under the wheels or tracks and by standing the working equipment on the ground.

Securing the working equipment

Before carrying out assembly work, the machine and the attachments must be secured against inadvertent and unauthorized starting, e.g. by placing chocks under the wheels or tracks and by standing the working equipment on the ground. Stand the working equipment on the ground in such a way that no movements can be made when mechanical or hydraulic connections become detached. Secure any equipment or component which is to be mounted or dismantled or whose position is to be changed using hoists or appropriate slinging/supporting devices to prevent them from moving, slipping or falling inadvertently.

Hydraulic and lubricating system:

Always observe the safety regulations applicable to the product when handling oils, greases and other chemical substances. Unused but open bores, pipelines and hose connections must be closed in a pressure-tight manner. Refill collected hydraulic oil back into the hydraulic system only through the return-flow filters. Dispose of waste oil without polluting the environment. Observe the correct working sequence when fitting or replacing components or equipment. The working sequence has been specified and tested by qualified experts.

4.1.2.3 Conversions or modifications to the machine Unauthorized conversions or modifications of the hydraulic excavator are forbidden for reasons of safety. The nominal pressure of pressure relief valves must not be modified without explicit approval from TEREX. Do not remove the lead seals from pressure-relief valves and pressure accumulators.

Replace defective, mechanically prestressed units only as an entirety. Never open them. In exceptional cases, open only when the system and the operating sequence are precisely known. The Technical Manual contains no information on such work. When the machine is at operating temperature, the consumables are at least at the same temperature. Precautions must therefore be taken to prevent burning or scalding. Be careful when handling acids, e.g. battery acid. Acid splashes may injure the eyes and the skin. Do not smoke when flammable liquids. handling

4.1.2.4

Recommissioning

Prior to recommissioning:

Be careful with naked flames and unprotected light. Not only fuel but also other consumables often have a low flash point and catch fire easily.

Grease all lubricating points. Check all oil levels and make the necessary corrections. Carry out function checks of all repaired components Check all functions of the excavator including the brakes during a test run. Release the hydraulic excavator for recommissioning only after all functions have been found to work perfectly.

General
After delivery, the Technical Manual is not subject to revision. Technical changes introduced into the series production after delivery of the machine may also be implemented in machines already in use. In such case, already delivered Technical Manuals are normally not automatically updated. All technical documents issued by TEREX Mining GmbH are written in German and then translated. Even a good translation may give rise to questions which your TEREX dealer or your TEREX distributing centre will be pleased to answer. This Technical Manual has been carefully prepared by the competent divisions. If any points are nevertheless unclear or incorrect, please contact your local TEREX dealer or your TEREX distributing centre.

In addition to the operating instructions and the spare-parts list, the present Technical Manual contains information enabling the user of the TEREX hydraulic excavator to safely operate, maintain and repair the machine in accordance with the specifications. The information supplied in the Technical Manual represents the standard version of the machine as delivered. All sketches and drawings are merely schematic. They do not necessarily represent the machine's actual state of design and must not be used as manufacturing documents. No reference is made to special versions.

TRAVEL SYSTEM
Wear limits
Track components must be replaced when they have worn down to between 75 and 100%. Sudden failure is otherwise pre-programmed. Careful and regular measurements are necessary to determine the extent of wear and to be ready for component exchange when it is necessary. Before measuring components, clean them thoroughly. Measure at several points. It is not the average, but the maximum wear value that is to be taken as wear limit. Because the wear life between 75 and 100% is low, we recommend that components be changed as a preventive measure as soon as the 75% limit has been reached. Exchange can take place while other servicing is being carried out.

Wear on the track components is due to movement, loading and ground contact, as well as to the hardness (abrasiveness) of the ground. Wear can also be increased by the following factors: 1. unstable position of excavator because of uneven ground. 2. one-sided stressing of the tracks when turning on the spot. 3. Driving over obstacles. 4. High amount of travelling of more than 10% of the operating hours.

TRACK CHAIN Track chain

General
Proportionate weight transmitted through the sprocket does not strain the pins and bushings connecting the pad-links. The track pins are full-floating.

The combined pad-link type track chain combines a chain link and a track pad into one unit. The drive forces are directly transferred from the sprocket into the massive pad-link unit.

TRACK CHAIN
Assembly
Opening the track chain 3. Remove both circlips (5, Fig. 1). 4. Remove both cover plates (4, Fig. 1). 5. Remove both track pins (3, Fig. 1). 2. First open the connection above the track link which is to be removed. (Arrow A in Fig. 1).

The track chain can be opened as follows: 1. Position the excavator in such a way that the chain link which is to be removed is positioned at the lower section of the sprocket (Arrow A in Fig.2).

Before opening the track chain has to be slackened in accordance with the operating instructions. The ball valve in the line to the track tensioning cylinder must be closed to avoid the piston being completely pushed out of the barrel when an engine is started.(see chapter 4.10).

Avoid uncontrolled movement of the opened track by fixing the track with help of appropriate means, e.g. chain hoists or forklift.

6. Afterwards remove the other two track pins accordingly.

Secure against falling down!

When the chain is not engaged with the sprocket the whole upper section of the chain may roll off from the idler and create injury and damage! Therefor uncontrolled rolling of the chain has to be avoided by securing the chain by appropriate means!

Sequence of assembly for bottom roller installation Position roller under the track frame and threat in mounting bolts (13) with washers (14). Remove securing device (20, Fig. 4).

Because of the securing device for transport the roller body and the supports have been pre-loaded. Therefore it is important to press the supports against the contact surface of the frame before The mounting bolts (13) are tightened. So the axial clearance of 1,0 to 2,0 mm is achieved. The supports have to contact the whole connecting surface of the track frame without any axial tolerances.

TOP ROLLER Top roller

General
3. The majority of roller leaks is due to dirt that enters into the duo-cone seals. 4. The roller can be made fully operational by removing and cleaning it, and then filling it with fresh oil. 5. Loose fastening bolts will immediately result in leaks and further damage to the bottom rollers.

Onto each track frame 2 top rollers are installed. 1. Top rollers have lifetime lubrication. They do not require any maintenance until the wear limits have been reached. 2. The rollers are sealed with duo-cone seals (4). Function and assembly of duo-cone seals - see chapter 4.11.

SPROCKET
Adhesive When the sprocket has been prepared for installation, apply adhesive Part-no. 1 991 417 to one of the contact surfaces (arrow E, Fig. 2). Apply the adhesive with ca. 10 mm clearance from the threaded holes to ensure that no adhesive can be forced into the threaded holes when the gearbox is set down. Penetration of adhesive into a threaded hole leads to increased friction and thus to invalidation of the starting power data. Sprocket Pick up sprocket with lifting device. Align sprocket and gearbox, insert all mounting bolts and tighten hand-tight. Tightening of bolts

Removal and installation of the sprocket can be done while the travel gearbox is installed in the track frame. The track has to be opened according to chapter 4.3. Avoid uncontrolled movement of the track by fixing it with help of appropriate means, e.g. chain hoists or forklift before it is opened.

Removal of the sprocket

Pick up sprocket with lifting device. Unscrew all mounting bolts (4, Fig. 2) Insert 2 bolts ISO 4017 - M 30 x 150 - Part-no. 157 699 into the holes of the sprocket. Screw in all 4 bolts equally to separate the sprocket from the gearbox.

Start sprocket installation as soon as the adhesive has been applied. The adhesive starts hardening when the metal surfaces have been joined without any air being admitted and is completed after approx. 48 hours at an ambient temperature of approx. 20C. The hardening process is initially strongly delayed, so that the installation time can be extended to a maximum of 8 hours. At temperatures below -10C, activator Part-no. 1 991 468 must be sprayed onto the second joining surface - the surface with no adhesive.

Installation of the sprocket

Mounting bolts The threads and the heads of the mounting bolts have to be slightly oiled and must not come into contact with the adhesive. Contact surface Prior to installing the sprocket, all traces of paint and grease must be removed from the contact surfaces between sprocket and travel gearbox with solvent Part-no. 216 405 (arrows E and F, Fig. 2). Check the contact area of sprocket and gearbox carefully for mechanical damages. The contact surface (arrow F, Fig. 2) must be coated with mounting paste Part-no. 244 905. Threads Clean all threads from paint, rust and grease and blow out with compressed air. Check for damage and tap threads again if required.

After installing the sprocket screw in all bolts and tighten all bolts (4, Fig. 3) crosswise with a torque of 2500 Nm.

Closing of track Bring track to a suitable position (A, Fig. 1) by moving the excavator and close track.

After closing the track the ball valve at the track tensioning cylinder has to be opened and the pressure relief valve in the carbody has to be adjusted (see chapter 4.10).

The procedure how to check the accumulators is described in chapter 8.6.4.8 Track tensioning system.

4.10.3 Releasing the track tension

Before carrying out repair work the tracks have to be slackened. Procedure: Shut down the engines Open both pressure relief valves (3, Fig. 3); the track is slackening (each track is related to a pressure relief valve). Before opening the track the ball valve (10. Fig. 2) in the line to the track tensioning cylinder must be closed to avoid the piston being completely pushed out of the barrel when an engine is started. After completion of the repair close the pressure relief valves (turn in completely).

Fig. 3

Track tensioning system

Each pressure relief valve (3, Fig. 3) is adjusted to 330 bar and sealed in this position. The seal must not be removed and the pressure setting of 330 bar must not be changed.

Attention!
Tensioning of the tracks: See operators manual.

Pressure setting: See chapter 8.6 Checking and setting pressures

DUO-CONE SEALS Duo-cone seals

Duo-cone seals (also referred to as steel-on-steel seals) are used as shaft seals. The arrangement of the seal is such that one steel ring, elastically mounted in the fixed component, lies/runs axially against a second steel ring that is also elastically mounted, but this time in the rotating component. Duo-cone seals are used in the excavator's bottom rollers, support rollers and idlers. Leakages in such components are usually due to damaged duo-cone seals. In case of leakages, the duo-cone seals are to be changed immediately.
Fig. 2 Duo-cone seals

Observe the following points when assembling duo-cone seals: 1. The running surfaces A of the steel rings (1, Fig. 1) must be completely free of scratches and scores. Clean all traces of oil and dust from running surfaces "A" and seating bevels B. All surfaces must be dry and free of rust, slag and scale.

3. Place one complete half (1) and (2) of the duocone seal into/onto the rigid component and one complete half into/onto the rotating component (Fig. 3) - but without using any oil. Make sure that distance C is equal all the way around the seal.

Fig. 3 Fig. 1 Duo-cone seals

Duo-cone seals

2. Draw rubber seal (2) onto steel ring (1, Fig. 2). The rubber ring (2). is correctly positioned when it sits twist-free parallel to the surface of the steel ring (1)..

4. Before fitting the two machine components (rigid and rotating) together, carefully wipe the surfaces A of the steel rings (1) to remove any foreign bodies or even finger-prints. Then apply a drop of thin oil between the running surfaces, but without allowing oil to get onto the other parts. Attention: NEVER fit a new half of a duo-cone seal to a used half. When re-assembling used duocone seals, make sure that pairs that were previously installed together are kept together.
