Oscillating Axle Lock-out Cylinder
The oscillating axle lock-out cylinder extends the
lock-out wedges between the chassis and the axle
when the boom is raised above the drive limit
switch. When the lock-out wedges are fully
extended, the oscillation lock-out limit switches
release and allow the primary boom to continue to
raise above the drive limit switch.
How To Remove The Oscillating
Axle Lock-out Cylinder
The oscillating axle lock-out cylinder is held in
place by the same pin that retains the axle.
Therefore, the axle must be removed as part of
this procedure.
This procedure requires specific
repair skills, lifting equipment and
a suitable workshop. Attempting
this procedure without these skills
and tools may result in death or
serious injury and significant
component damage. Dealer
service is strongly recommended.
Perform this procedure on a firm
level surface.
1 Disconnect and plug the oscillating axle lock-
out cylinder hydraulic hoses. Disconnect and
plug the steer and accumulator hoses from the
steer-oscillate manifold to provide clearance for
pin removal.
Bodily injury hazard. Spraying
hydraulic oil can perforate and
burn skin. Loosen hydraulic
connections very slowly to allow
the oil pressure to dissipate
gradually. Do not allow oil to squirt
or spray.
2 Remove the oscillation lock-out limit switches
from the oscillating axle lock-out cylinder.
3 Block the non-steering wheels, then center a
jack under the oscillating axle and lift the
machine 6 inches (15cm).
4 Support the raised machine with blocks, then
carefully lower the chassis onto the blocks.
Leave the jack under the axle to support it. Do
not lift.
Crushing hazard. If the jack is not
centered, the axle may tip when
the pivot pin is removed.
5 Remove the pin retainer from the axle pivot pin.
Use a soft metal drift to remove the axle pivot
pin.
6 Remove the oscillate cylinder.
