Electrical Swivel
Description
The swivel assembly consists of a 20 conductor slip ring and
cover assembly.
Each brush set incorporates two brushes, leads, and clips
which are attached to a brush holder assembly. The brush
set leads are formed into harnesses which are routed
through the mounting plate on the swivel. The collector ring
leads are formed into one harness which is routed downward
through the center of the hydraulic swivel. Extending from
the base of the hydraulic swivel, the collector ring leads are
also formed into connectors which plug into receptacles from
the chassis power supply.
The swivel cover is secured with a seal and bolts.
The electrical swivel also incorporates a slew potentiometer.
The potentiometer controls functions in the rated capcity
limiter, working area definition, and rear axle oscillation
lockout systems.
Theory Of Operation
The electrical swivel is located on top of the water swivel and
transfers electricity between the carrier and superstructure.
Wiring harnesses transmit the electricity between the swivel
and carrier, and superstructure.
Maintenance
Removal
1. Perform steps 1 through 4 of Hydraulic Swivel - Removal
in this section.
2. Disconnect the batteries. Refer to Batteries, page 3-2.
3. Locate the connectors which join the collector ring
harness to the receptacles for the carrier.
4. Tag the connectors and their receptacles with numbers.
Disconnect the connectors from the chassis wiring
receptacles.
NOTE: If the connectors are too large to go through the
center of the hydraulic swivel, they must be
removed, see instructions below.
5. Remove the clamp securing the wiring harness to the
retainer plate on the bottom of the hydraulic swivel
assembly.
