Maverick (NH TS-100A,115A ,125A,135A Asy. Man) 01/05
Under Mount frame Asy:
1. Before beginning any repairs on this section make certain the boom is extended outward to
full extend and laying on the floor. Before removing the Boom Pivot Pin support the boom with an
overhead hoist so as when Pie is removed boom can be lifted out of the way. NEVER REMOVE ANY
PINS OR BOLTS unless boom is supported at pivot end and head end is resting on the floor.
2. The under mount frame asy is made up of the Turret, Center Section Frame Weldment,
Boom Mount, Swing Cylinders, Swing Cylinder Trunnion Mount, Turret Cylinder Link and Counter
Weight.
3. The Turret Asy will be shipped assembled to the Boom mount with the hoses and cylinders
plus attaching hardware assembled to it.
4. The Swing Cylinders have replaceable mounting bushing which can be replaced by
removing the bottom cover and trunnion mount weldment. The Cylinders can be dropped down
enough to replace the bushing. The replace the Trunnion Mount weldment. Also by removing the
cylinders the Turret Cylinder link can be removed.
5. The Turret assembly has a large bearing assembly bolted to it and then bolted to the Boom
Mount. This Bearing CANNOT be removed (or replaced ) unless the Boom is disconnected from it
first. When disconnecting boom make certain the boom is supported as not to fall (See Step 1). The
Bolts retaining the turret to the bearing and the bolts connecting bearing to the Boom Mount MUST
be torqued to the required specification, This is very critical. See the Bolt Torque Chart in the
beginning of this manual.
6. DO NOT remove any mount pins and/or bolts unless the components are supported properly
to prevent them from falling
7. The Turret Bearing Assembly has 3 grease fittings, each 120° apart. All three of these grease
fittings must be greased because of the diameter of the bearing this to ensure an even distribution
of grease though out the diameter of the bearing assembly.
8. If the hoses for the swing cylinders are disconnected or replaced make certain that they are
reconnected correctly as shown in this section (Swing Cylinder Hose Routing). If the hoses are not
connected correctly the swing will not function correctly.
