Service and maintenance
Dump body 153
Exhaust heated dump body
(optional equipment)
In order to prevent excavated material from freezing to the body,
the machine can be equipped with a flexible tube between the
tractor unit and the dump body, so that exhaust gases from the
engine can be used for warming up the dump body. The flexible
tube is provided with an over-load protection (A).
If the tube works loose:
1 Slacken the bolts for locking tabs (A).
2 Reposition the tube.
3 Tighten the bolts.
Maintenance of exhaust flexible tube
Clean and lubricate the marked parts (B) every 1000 hours to
make sure the function is operational in case the trailer unit might
overturn.
Lubricate the surfaces with some lubricant.
NOTE! It is important that the lubricant is allowed to dry
properly (for at least 20 minutes) before the exhaust-pipe and
the flexible exhaust tube are joined together.
It is important that the engine has the correct back pressure in the
exhaust system.
The exhaust pipe (A) must be left in place and provided with a pipe
end (B), which is provided with a restriction.
