16. TROUBLESHOOTING
16.1 PHENOMENA THAT ARE NOT FAILURES
Note that the following phenomena are not failures:
1.
When the arm is pulled in, the speed of movement will drop momen-
tarily when the arm is more or less vertical.
2.
The bucket speed will drop momentarily when the bucket teeth are
more or less horizontal.
3.
When starting or stopping the swing, noise will be emitted from the
brake valve.
4.
When going down a steep slope at low speed, a noise will be emitted
from the travel motor.
16.2
METHOD OF TOWING MACHINE
When towing the machine, use a wire rope that has ample
strength for the weight of the machine that is being towed.
If the machine sinks in mud and cannot get out under its own power,
or if the drawbar pull of the excavator is being used to tow a heavy object,
use a wire rope as shown in the diagram on the right. Place pieces of
wood between wire ropes and body to prevent damage to ropes and body.
At this time, never use the towing hole which is intended only for light-
weight towing.
16.3
USING METHOD FOR LIGHT-WEIGHT
TOWING HOLE
• The shackle must always be used.
• Hold the rope level and direct it straight to the track frame.
• Move the machine slowly in the Lo mode.
The track frame has been equipped with a towing hole to pass the
shackle through for towing light objects.
In this case, the traction load must be 130 KN or less.
