Adapter Installation with S110, S130 and S145
Prior to installing the Posilok
®
tooth system components:
• Thoroughly clean all bearing surfaces on the tooth base, adapter, and pin.
• Visually inspect top and bottom of tooth base for wear, refer to the nose rebuild section for
acceptance standards.
Install Pin
• For applications where soil fines pack and harden, it is
recommended that the outer sleeve of the pin be covered
in grease (see Pin Rebuild section).
• Place pin into adapter base.
IMPORTANT:
For S110, S130, and S145 sizes, the end with
hex socket must be inserted first.
Tip:
Pin can be inserted from either side of base.
Recommended corner positions should be installed
from the inside.
•
If pin is not fully retracted, use hex bit to turn
head until pin body is flush with the end of the pin
sleeve. Retract pin by turning counterclockwise.
Hex bit size
: 17 mm for S110, 19 mm for S130 and S145.
Install Adapter
• Use appropriate lifting devices to position adapter
onto tooth base until it solidly contacts end of
base. For wear cap style, pre-assemble so that eye
on tip can be utilized as shown.
