Retightening procedure of the crawler carrier
mounting bolts
REMARK
The required tightening torque for the mounting bolts of the
crawler carriers has been determined and applied during the
assembling procedure of the excavator at the mine site. This pro-
cedure has to be repeated one time after the first 1000 operating
hours through your Komatsu dealer.
General
The required tightening torque for all mounting bolts (M48), illus-
tration Z24073 has to be determined with the four measuring bolts
(7), which dimension is analogous to the mounting bolts.
The required axial tensioning force of the bolts (M48) is deter-
mined by means of the elongation of the bolts.
For determination of the tightening torque, two especially pre-
pared measuring bolts (7) are installed on each crawler carrier
(A). The measuring bolts can be identified by the centering dot at
the bolt head and at the shaft end.
Necessary equipment for the retightening procedure:
Measuring device (1 - 6) delivered with the new machine, see
table below.
Special hydraulic torque wrench, see illustration Z24072 on
page 373. This tool will be provided by your Komatsu dealer.
