RT540E SERVICE MANUAL SWING SYSTEM
Removal
1. Fully extend and set the outriggers enough to take up
the slack in the pads.
NOTE: Do not raise the machine on the outriggers.
2. Ensure the boom is in the travel position and the
turntable lock pin is engaged.
3. Elevate the boom slightly and shut down the engine.
4. Tag and disconnect the battery cables from the
batteries.
NOTE: The boom assembly weighs approximately 5792
kg (12,769 lb) with stowed boom extension.
Removal of the swingaway boom extension will
simplify boom removal, therefore, the above weight
is for the boom without the swingaway boom
extension attached. The lift cylinder weighs
approximately 578 kg (1274 lb).
5. Remove the boom and lift cylinder following the
procedures outlined in Section 4, BOOM.
6. Remove the counterweight and auxiliary hoist following
procedures outlined in Section 5 - HOIST and
COUNTERWEIGHT.
7. Tag and disconnect all water and oil lines from the
bottom of the swivel. Cap or plug all lines and openings.
8. Locate the connectors and ground wire that joins the
swivel wiring harness to the receptacles and ground
stud on the carrier.
9. Disconnect the swivel wiring harness connectors from
the carrier wiring receptacles. Remove the ground wire
from the ground stud.
10. Remove the clamp securing the swivel wiring harness to
the retainer plate on the bottom of the hydraulic swivel
assembly.
11. Coil the wiring harness and secure it to the swivel to
prevent damage to the harness during turntable
removal.
12. On the bottom of the hydraulic swivel, bend the retainer
tabs away from the capscrew heads. Remove the
capscrews securing the two retainer plates to the spool.
