Slew Drive Gears.

The slew drive gear is designed to be largely maintenance free. However, we

recommend the gear teeth be greased on a monthly basis with a high pressure

grease.

3.

Checking Limit Switch Operation.

The limit switches require no maintenance, other than a visual inspection, on a pre

operation basis.

This is an important check, to ensure the switch is not

mechanically damaged, and the roller is always in contact with the cam, when not

under load.

The switch operation can be simply checked, by observing the LED display when

deploying the stabilizers. As an outrigger foot touches the ground and becomes

loaded, the appropriate light will change to green. This indicates that the switch

contact has operated correctly

If the LED displays green at any other time then the machine must not be operated, until the

fault is rectified.
