Initial Hydraulic Oil Fill
for the following procedure.
The following procedure is used at the factory to fill the
hydraulic system on a new crane. It is necessary to use this
procedure in the field only if the entire hydraulic system has
been drained.
1.
Open the hydraulic tank shut-off valves (17).
2.
Open the vent valve (8) or the schrader valve (9) on top
of the tank (2). Failure to do this will result in over
pressurizing the tank.
3.
Fill the hydraulic tank to the appropriate level depending
on cylinder position through the fill plug (7) opening.
Do not fill the hydraulic tank through the breather (10)
port or through the top of the filters (5). The hydraulic
system could be contaminated from unfiltered oil.
NOTE:
It is extremely important to perform the following
bleed procedure in the field anytime the system is
drained completely.
4.
Check that all pump and motor cases are filled with fresh
oil filtered through an owner-supplied 10-micron filter.
NOTE:
Ensure all lines cracked during the bleeding
procedure are tightened to specification.
5.
Install bleed line shut off valves into the test ports on the
swing pump and utilize them to bleed the air once you
have started the engine at a low idle.
6.
While running the engine at a low idle retract and extend
the counterweight pin puller ten times to remove air from
the cylinder.
7.
While running the engine at low engine idle, park and
un-park Drum 4 and Drum 2 (if equipped with a pawl) to
operate the pawl cylinders a total of 10 times.
8.
While running the engine at a low idle, retract and
extend the gantry cylinders to remove air from the
cylinders in the following manner:
a.
Extend cylinders 50% out 229 mm (9”), pause for 2-
4 seconds before changing direction, then fully
retract. Pause for 2-4 seconds. Repeat.
b.
Extend cylinders 75% out 330 mm (13”), pause for
2-4 seconds before changing direction, then fully
retract. Pause for 2-4 seconds. Repeat.
c.
Extend cylinders 100% out, pause for 2-4 seconds
before changing direction, then fully retract. Repeat
four times.
NOTE:
Remove the pin and support the cylinders to
prevent them from striking anything during
operation.
9.
While running the engine at a low idle speed, bleed the
air out of drums 1, 2, 3 (if equipped), and 4 in the
following manner:
a.
Ramp the handle command from 0% to 25% (hoist
up) and hold for 15 seconds then ramp to 100% and
hold for 30 seconds.
b.
Ramp from 100% hoist up and then down to 0%.
c.
Ramp the handle command from 0% to 25% (hoist
down) and hold for 15 seconds, then ramp to 100%
and hold for 30 seconds.
d.
Ramp from 100% hoist up and then down to 0%.
e.
Repeat steps a—d three times.
NOTE:
This step will be done as the machine is being
driven out to test. When you are first moving the
WARNING
Burn Hazard!
The oil in the hydraulic tank may be under pressure and
extremely hot. Hot oil can escape when servicing
components.
Before opening the tank for any reason, relieve any
pressure from the tank using the schrader valve or the
vent valve (see
CAUTION
Avoid Damage to the Hydraulic System!
If the Hydraulic Oil Low alarm comes on
at any time during the startup procedure,
add oil to the tank.
CAUTION
Equipment Damage!
Check pump pressures during the first two minutes of
operation. If the pressure for any pump is not within the
specified range, stop the engine immediately to prevent
pump damage. Troubleshoot to determine the cause of
the problem.
