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 bolt heads. Remove the eight bolts
and four bolt retainers securing the two retainer plates to
the spool. Remove the retainer plates from the spool
and the lugs on the carrier frame.
NOTE: The swivel assembly will be removed with the
turntable.
NOTE: If a lifting device capable of lifting the entire
superstructure is not available, superstructure
weight may be reduced by removing various
components such as the hoist(s).
13. Attach a suitable lifting device to the four superstructure
lifting lugs (two at the boom pivot shaft bushings and two
at the lower lift cylinder pivot shaft bushings). Take in
cable or chain to remove slack. Do not pull up on the
superstructure.
NOTE: It will be necessary to rotate the superstructure
while attached to the lifting device. Outer race bolts
can only be removed from the front or from under
the cab.
14. Remove the 40 bolts and washers securing the turntable
bearing outer race to the carrier.
15. Carefully lift the superstructure, using care not to
damage the swivel assembly, and set it on blocking that
will not allow the superstructure to tilt or shift, or rest on
the swivel. Leave the lifting device attached.
NOTE: If the same bearing is to be used again, mark the
position of the bearing on the superstructure so it
can be installed in the exact position it was before
removal.
The bearing weighs between 585 kg (1290 lb) and
642 kg (1415 lb) depending on the bearing used.
Ensure the bearing lifting device is capable of
supporting the weight.
16. Place an adequate lifting device under the bearing and
remove the 44 bolts and washers securing the turntable
bearing to the superstructure.
17. Using the lifting device, remove the turntable bearing
from under the superstructure.
Inspection
Check the bearing teeth for chipping or cracking. If any
evidence of these is found, replace the bearing. Ensure the
bolt holes are free of dirt, oil, or foreign material.
Installation
NOTE: If the same bearing is to be used again, align the
marked teeth on the pinion shaft and the marked
teeth on the bearing.
Installation is in the travel position. Ensure the
swing lock is disengaged before attempting to mate
the bearing to the superstructure.
1. Using an appropriate lifting device, position the turntable
bearing under the superstructure. If the same bearing is
being used, position it as marked prior to removal.
2. Install 44 new bolts and washers securing the bearing to
the superstructure. Refer to Inner Race Torquing, page
6-10.
DANGER
Ensure the lifting device is capable of fully supporting the
weight of the superstructure. Ensure the superstructure
will not tilt or slide during lifting and moving. Failure to do
so may result in death or injury to personnel and damage
to equipment.
DANGER
Ensure the superstructure is fully supported before
proceeding.
DANGER
Ensure that any blocking material used is capable of fully
supporting the weight of the superstructure and will not
allow it to tilt or shift. Failure to do so may result in death or
injury to personnel.
DANGER
Anytime a grade 8 turntable bolt has been removed, it
must be replaced with a new grade 8 bolt.
