<strong>Maintenance</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Care</strong><br />

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 />
