2. 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.
