Information regarding maintenance of attachments
Correct maintenance and service is absolutely necessary for smooth and
continuous operation, and for an increased service life of the attachments.
Please observe the lubrication and maintenance instructions in the
Operator’s Manuals of the attachments.
7.19 Maintenance of options
Joint rod (lifting eye) and load hook
Wear of joint rod (lifting eye)
Immediately replace lifting eyes with inadmissible wear (beyond max.
tolerance, for example), damage, deformations, surface cracks and
corrosion.
The nominal size must not be worn more than 5 % (max. tolerance).
Measurement can be performed with the accuracy of a slide gauge.
Welding is prohibited!
Load hook wear
Have load hooks (Powertilt, Powertilt for Easylock) with inadmissible wear
(beyond the tolerance, for example), damage, deformations, surface
cracks and corrosion immediately replaced by a Wacker Neuson service
center.
The nominal size must not be worn more than 10 % (max. tolerance).
Measurement can be performed with the accuracy of a slide gauge.
Welding is prohibited!
If the spring mechanism of snap link C does not automatically close any
more, stop machine operation with the load hook and have the error
repaired by a Wacker Neuson service center.
