Two-Port Water Swivel
Description
The two-port water swivel allows engine coolant to flow from
the carrier-mounted engine to the hot water heater in the
operator’s cab. Through an internally drilled passage in the
11 port hydraulic swivel spool, coolant is transferred to a
circumferential groove on the water spool exterior. This
groove corresponds with a mating port on the outer case of
the water swivel. The spool grooves are separated by a quad
ring/telflon bronze ring seal. The lip seal prevents coolant
from leaking externally. Return engine coolant flow from the
hot water heater is accomplished in the same manner
through the opposite port of the water swivel.
Maintenance
Removal
1. Perform steps 1 thru 4 of HYDRAULIC SWIVEL -
REMOVAL in this section.
2. Remove the electrical swivel. Refer to ELECTRICAL
SWIVEL - REMOVAL in this section.
3. Tag and disconnect the lines from the case of the water
swivel. Cap or plug all lines and openings.
4. Remove the bolt and shim(s) from the water/hydraulic
swivel keying lugs.
5. Remove the four capscrews and washers securing the
water swivel and electrical swivel center post to the
hydraulic swivel. Remove the water swivel and center
post.
Disassembly
NOTE: Any maintenance requiring disassembly of the
water swivel should include replacement of all
seals and rings.
1. Withdraw the spool from the case.
2. Place the spool on a clean work surface in a dust-free
area and block the spool to prevent movement during
disassembly.
NOTE: Aligning discarded seals and rings in the order of
disassembly will assist with installation of new
seals and rings.
3. Remove the seals and rings from the spool.
CAUTION
When removing seals and rings, avoid scratching
grooved and gland surfaces.
