and use proper safety equipment to help avoid
injury. Always wear hard hat, gloves, safety shoes,

Adapter Installation with S110, S130 and S145 – Continued
Install Adapter
•
Using hex bit and socket drive, turn hex socket end of
pin clockwise to extend the pin into the pin hole in the
opposite side of the adapter.
Tighten to the specified
torque value shown below.
• Insert the pin cap to prevent the pin hex socket from filling
with soil fines. Cap should snap into place.
Retighten Pin
Retighten the pin every 600 to 1200 hours of operating service depending on the severity of application.
Recommended Pin Torque
(To assure adapter is fully installed).
Size S110: 150-190 ft-lb (200-260 nm) Sizes S130 and S145: 90-290 ft-lb (260-390 nm).
Adapter Removal with S110, S130 and S145
Clean debris from adapter pin head slot and remove cap from pin head.
•
Retract Pin – Insert Allen hex bit into the head of pin and turn counterclockwise until the pin
body is fully retracted.
Do not continue to turn after ‘stop’ is felt. The Sidewinder
®
pin is designed for
operation with a ratchet wrench and should not normally require use of an air-impact wrench.
IMPORTANT:
The Sidewinder pin is not usually removed from the nose hole during an adapter change-out.
Remove only when there appears to be damage.
•
Remove Adapter –
Use appropriate lifting devices to support and remove adapter. If soil fines resist adapter
removal, use a pry bar between the back sides of the adapter and the side shoulders of the nose.
IMPORTANT:
Remove worn out adapters directly
after taking the bucket out of service, before soil fines
harden in place.
