B-13 Inspect Slewing Bearing Bolts
Regularly inspecting the slewing bearing bolts is vital to
proper machine operation. This inspection should be
performed after the first 50 hours of operation and
every 600 hours thereafter. If the bolts come off or get
loose, replace with new ones. Apply threadlocker
Loctite 272 to the new bolts and torque to specification.
After the bolts are replaced and torqued, re-inspect the
bolts for tightness.
