8.7.2 Swing gear<br />
A hydromotor <strong>and</strong> a multiple disc brake are mounted on the swing gear. The hydromotor powers the swing gear<br />
which has the function of reducing the hydromotor speed to attain the necessary swing torque to allow the upper<br />
structure to rotate. The upper structure will be braked from the swinging motion over the swing gear <strong>and</strong> the<br />
hydromotor <strong>and</strong> held by the automatically braking multiple-plate brake. The swing gear has two planetary gear<br />
stages.<br />
Oil level check: daily check for leaks <strong>and</strong> level check after 500 operating hours.<br />
Oil replacement: every 1000 operating hours or annually.<br />
1. Tilt the cab.<br />
2. Remove the panel underneath the radiator.<br />
3. Provide a suitable catch container.<br />
4. Remove the locking screw cap.<br />
5. Allow the gear oil to drain completely.<br />
6. Mount the locking screw cap.<br />
7. Fill in the prescribed amount of gear oil at the measuring plug or the<br />
drain hose.<br />
8. Check the level on the dipstick.<br />
9. Mount the panel underneath the radiator.<br />
10. Lower the cab.<br />
Capacity swing gear: 2.5 liters<br />
Attention !<br />
Fast-filling the gear oil<br />
• Can result in damage to the swivel gear.<br />
• Fill the gear oil slowly to avoid bubbles. This prevents incorrect<br />
measurements.<br />
