Checking wear plates of the telescopic boom
Fig.176: Plain bearing plates on
telescopic boom
Position I shows the slide bearing plates at the rear of the loader unit
Position II shows the slide bearing plates at the front of the loader unit.
The slide bearing plates at the front become visible when the loader unit
is telescoped.
1. Check the slide bearing plates at the rear for wear.
2. Check the slide bearing plates at the front for wear.
If the wear condition is too high, the inner tube of the loader unit is no
longer guided correctly and the loader unit begins to strike. Have the slide
bearings replaced by an authorized service center.
