Hot hydraulic oil under high pressure can remain in the

after the engine has been stopped. The uncontrolled release of
the hydraulic oil can cause sudden machine movement and can
also result in the following conditions:

e r a
Burns

Con pilla terpi


The penetration of body tissue

fide r: llar
Other personal injury

Death

ntia Inc
If hydraulic oil penetrates body tissue, the injury must be treated

.
immediately by a doctor who is familiar with this type of injury.

lG
Use a board or a piece of cardboard to check for a hydraulic oil
leak. Make sure that all of the attachments have been lowered to

ree
the ground and that all trapped pressure has been released from
the hydraulic system and the power train system. Also, make

n
sure that the hydraulic oil is cool before the removal of any
components or lines. Remove the hydraulic oil filler cap only
when the engine is stopped and the filler cap is cool enough to
touch with your bare hand.

Cylinders equipped with lock valves can remain pressurized for


very long periods of time, even with the hoses removed.

Failure to relieve pressure before removing a lock valve or


disassembling a cylinder can result in personal injury or death.

Ensure all pressure is relieved before removing a lock valve or


disassembling a cylinder.

NOTICE
Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during
performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting, and
repair of the product. Be prepared to collect the fluid with
suitable containers before opening any compartment or
disassembling any component containing fluids.

Refer to Special Publication, PERJ1017, "Dealer Service Tool


Catalog" for tools and supplies suitable to collect and contain
fluids on Cat® products.

Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and


mandates.

Note: When removing pins there is the possibility of a sudden release of stored energy, which could result in damage to the electric shovel. Note
the ratchet-lever hoist and safety sling securing the pins have the proper support to release the load and that personnel are out of the line of fire.

Note: Hydraulic hoses must be depressurized before disconnecting from the sleeve. The hydraulic fluid is under high pressure and could spray out
with enough force to penetrate exposes skin.

Note: Ensure that you have constant radio contact with the crane operators when equipment parts are moved with the mobile crane. Many of these
lifts are "blind" and radio communication helps to prevent accidents such as dropped loads, which could cause serious injury or equipment
damage.

Note: When working at heights, use approved fall protection, man, lifts, and stepladders.

Note: Put identification marks on the hose assemblies, the tube assemblies, and the wire harnesses for installation purposes. Plug all open ports,
the hose assemblies, and the tube assemblies to prevent fluid loss and prevent contaminants from entering the system.

1. Park the Shovel straight ahead with the dipper centered between the crawlers.

2. Dump a load of loose material in front of the dipper.

3. Use the HMI in the cab to bypass the limits.


Note: Use caution when moving shovel components, including the cylinder, when the limits are bypassed.

4. Position dipper (2) with cylinder arrangement (1) fully extended and dipper (2) heeled on the ground.
Note: Ensure that there is sufficient clearance to remove the guide bushings and the crowd position sensor cable (transducer).

Note: Never attempt to remove the hydraulic cylinder and sleeve if the dipper has been detached or removed from the dipper handle.

5. Prepare the machine for maintenance, perform voltage shutdown.

a. For (S/N: ER6 and ER8) machines refer to Testing and Adjusting Machine Preparation  for the correct procedure.

b. For (S/N: R3R and R3F) machines refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual Prepare the Machine for Maintenance  for the correct
procedure.

Note: Do not allow the cable to snap back into the housing because recoil could cause damage resulting in component failure.

Note: The cable is under tension and must be fully supported before disconnecting.
6. Disconnect crowd position sensor cable (5) from the back of dipper handle (6).

7. Start up the shovel.

8. Use the HMI in the cab to bypass the limits.


Note: Use caution when moving shovel components, including the cylinder, when the limits are bypassed.

Illustration 3 g06088890

9. Position dipper teeth (10) into the ground to position dipper (9) to rest on top of the load of material. Move the shovel forward until dipper
handle (8) becomes vertical. Avoid boom (7) jacking.

Personal injury can result from hot oil spray.

Make sure all attachments have been lowered, oil is cool and the
pressure has been released from the hydraulic system before
removing any components or lines.

Be sure there is no pressure in the tubing before it is


disconnected from the fitting.

Do not allow hot oil or components to contact skin.

10. Attach Tooling (C) (not shown) to the hoses to check the hydraulic system pressure.

a. The pressure hoses should be 690 kpa (100 psi)

b. The return hoses should be 207 kpa (30 psi)

Note: This initial position will ensure that the boom is not jacked.
