PowerTilt PTS06
8.24 Adjusting the play on the PowerTilt
Checking the circumferential play
☞ Switch off the machine
☞ Fit and raise a bucket
☞ Apply load to one side of the bucket (have one person press it down)
☞ Mark the position on the housing and the shaft
☞ Apply load to the other side of the bucket and mark again.
☞ Circumferential play (1.5°) as torsion between shaft and housing in mm (in)
Possibility 1: Air inclusions in the hydraulic system (PowerTilt and hydraulic lines) can
cause excessive play on a new PowerTilt. Bleed the PowerTilt via the hydraulic
connections on the housing. Repeat this procedure several times if necessary.
☞ Bearing wear can cause the shaft to have axial play in the housing.
Possibility 2: axial play > 0.5 mm (0.02”) -> adjust the PowerTilt. If adjusting requires
more than half a revolution, or if play cannot be remedied with the adjustment, replace the
internal bearings.
Caution!
If bearings are not replaced:
☞ Damage to the end cap, shaft and housing
☞ Slacken and remove the screws of the securing ring.
☞ Press the securing screw out of the oscillating-flange clearance by screwing in the set
screws.
Notice!
To remove/mount the securing ring, slacken the fastening screws of the shaft on
the other side.
