8.7.2 Swing gear
A hydromotor and a multiple disc brake are mounted on the swing gear. The hydromotor powers the swing gear
which has the function of reducing the hydromotor speed to attain the necessary swing torque to allow the up-
per structure to rotate. The upper structure will be braked from the swinging motion over the swing gear and the
hydromotor and held by the automatically braking multiple-plate brake. The swing gear has two planetary gear
stages.
Oil level check: daily check for leaks and level check after 500 operating hours.
Oil replacement: every 1000 operating hours or annually.
