Attaching the hydraulic
attachment to the carrier
Mechanical mounting aspects
You need an assistant to attach the hydraulic
attachment to the carrier.
◆
Agree on hand signals with your assistant, to
enable him to help you placing the carrier in the
proper position to attach the hydraulic
attachment.
◆
Lower the stick of the carrier into the holder
provided on the adapter plate.
WARNING Injury by impacts
A sudden movement of the carrier may cause your
assistant to be hit and injured by the boom or the
hydraulic attachment.
►
Only move the boom very slowly and in a
controlled manner while an assistant is within
the danger zone.
►
Always keep sight of your assistant.
WARNING Hands and fingers being cut off
or hurt
Bores and surfaces can act like a pair of scissors
and cut off or hurt parts of your body.
►
Never use your fingers to check bores or fitting
surfaces.
◆
Let your assistant instruct you until the bores in
the adapter plate (B) and in the stick (A) are
properly aligned.
◆
Install the stick bolt (C) and lock it.
◆
Lift the hydraulic attachment (D).
◆
Extend the bucket cylinder (E) until the bore in
the linkage (F) links up with the bore in the
adapter plate (B).
◆
Install the linkage bolt (G) and lock it.
◆
Carefully move the bucket cylinder (E) into both
end positions.
The adapter plate must not be stopped by
mechanical stops in either position. Consult the
Atlas Copco Customer Center/Dealer in your area
if the adapter plate is stopped by a mechanical
stop.
Making the hydraulic connections
NOTICE Faulty hydraulic installation
The carrier must have a suitable hydraulic
installation to operate the hydraulic attachment.
Improperly installed lines and incorrect rated sizes
may cause the oil to heat up and the hydraulic
attachment to be damaged.
►
Only use hydraulic lines of the rated sizes as
instructed (see chapter Technical
Specifications).
►
Check the rated size of the hydraulic lines on
existing hydraulic installations! Pressure and
tank lines for the hydraulic oil must have a
sufficient inside diameter and wall thickness.
►
Lay all hydraulic hoses so that they are torsion-
free.
◆
Switch off the carrier.
◆
Depressurise the hydraulic system according to
the manufacturer's safety and operating
instructions for the carrier.
◆
If no quick couplings are used, close all shut-off
valves in the installation at the boom.
