SAFETY AND ACCIDENT PREVENTION

1 GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
1.1 Read these instructions with care
Enact all possible safety regulations, precautions and instructions when installing and/or performing maintenance on the tracked undercarriage.

1.2 Unauthorized modifications

PERICOLO DANGER

It is strictly forbidden to bring modifications to the tracked undercarriage which could compromise proper operation and safety. The Hinowa company is not responsible for any injury or damage caused by unauthorized modifications.

1.3 Safety valves

DANGER PERICOLO

It is strictly forbidden to modify or tamper with hydraulic geared motor control and safety valves whenever these are present. The Hinowa company is not responsible for damage to persons or property, to your machine or to tracked undercarriage components when standard settings for hydraulic valves are tampered with.

OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS

2.1 Remove paint before welding

Whenever you weld your machine to the frame of the tracked undercarriage you must first remove the paint in the welding zone. Heated paint in the welding zone, if it is not removed, can generate toxic fumes. Avoid potentially toxic fumes and dusts. Avoid inhaling dust if you sand or grind the paint to remove it. Wear an approved breathing set. If you use solvents or similar substances for paint remo-

PERICOLO DANGER

val be sure to eliminate this substance with soap and water before welding the bare section. Remove solvent or paint removal containers from the welding zone. Wait at least 15 minutes before starting to weld to make sure fumes disperse. Perform the entire job in a well-ventilated work zone. Dispose of paint and solvent in an environmentally-safe manner according to current local regulations.

2.2

Avoid welding near to pressurized pipelines

Never heat by welding near pressurized hydraulic pipelines or other flammable materials. Excessive heating near to pressurized hydraulic pipelines can cut them and generate flammable spatter with consequent severe burns for yourself and for other nearby persons. Install heat-resistant screens if you cannot avoid welding near to pressurized pipelines.

2.3 Avoid contact with high pressure fluids

Fluids which exit under high pressures can penetrate into the skin and cause very severe injuries. Avoid this danger by eliminating pressures before connecting hydraulic pipelines. Tighten all connections well before pressurizing the circuit. When inspecting the system and looking for leaks use a piece of cardboard and protect the hands with gloves and the eyes with safety goggles. Consult a doctor immediately if an accident happens. Fluid injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a few hours since otherwise it can cause serious diseases.

2.4 Structural connectin of the undercarriage

Weld the structures of the undercarriage such as cross-members and side frames as near as possible to the reinforcement points, as indicated in the picture. Do not weld outside the sketched area, in order to prevent structural failures of the side frames and/or of components such as rollers, wheels, reduction gear drives.

NOTE: The undercarriages that are supplied without cross-members are assembled through a junction reinforcement between the plate fixing the reduction gear drives support and the main structure. Such reinforcement is ONLY little welded (see picture). Before using the undercarriage, weld this reinforcement by fixing it also to the machines structure.

2.5 Hydraulic connections to the tracked undercarriage

Always make sure you connect the hydraulic components of the tracked undercarriage to your machines system according to the diagrams given in this manual. Pay attention to the type of undercarriage you have purchased because series PT undercarriage connection circuits are not all the same since various types of hydraulic geared motors are used. It is important to check, when connecting the hydraulic geared motors, what the geared motors direction of rotation corresponds to forward movement by the machine when the geared motors are positioned in the rear part of the undercarriage. Some versions of tracked undercarriages may be furnished without the drive control valve flanged to the geared motors. In this case it is your task to install the valve, complying with the diagrams indicated in this manual. If you choose to use in-line drive control valves then the connection between hydraulic geared motors and val-

PERICOLO
UMS01024

ves must be made using pipelines of appropriate dimensions for the working hydraulic pressure and the peak pressure. Adjustment of the drive control valves and the max. pressure valves that control the circuit, must be according to the settings indicated in the technical data card. We remind you that the function of the control valves that are flanged to the motor is to prevent pressure peaks due to the inertial force and to allow controlling the undercarriage when driving on a slope. The installer is responsible for mounting under his machine a PT undercarriage which is not equipped with control valves. In addition to this, we remind you that a hydraulic motor not equipped with negative brake always leaks, which can cause movements of the machine if parked on a slope.

IMPORTANT
The standard Hinowa undercarriages are usually installed on open circuits (see attachments). For different applications (for example closed circuits) please contact the Hinowa engineers. For the hydraulic connections, in particular the drain connections, please refer to what stated in the specific schemes for each model.

2.6 Procedure for the first undercarriages starting

Before putting the undercarriage into service, do what follows: 1) Oil fluxing: max. contamination allowed: absolute class NAS 9 1638 or 18/18 SO DIS 4406 2) Operate the reduction gear drive idle for about 5 minutes (machine lifted) at low load and in one direction, in order to ensure a good cleaning of the system and a perfect filling.

2.7 Installing tracked undercarriages with hydraulic widening

Be careful not to ruin the antifriction slide guides placed inside the central structure if you need to install your machine on a tracked undercarriage with hydraulic widening. Perform the following operations before welding your structure to the central frame of the tracked undercarriage:

WARNING ATTENZIONE
1) support the central part of the tracked undercarriage with blocks that lift the tracks off the ground and permit you to work in safe and secure conditions; 2) remove the pins from the hydraulic widening cylinder stems;

3) pull out the 2 longitudinal members of the tracked undercarriage that are no longer connected to the central structure;

4) unscrew the sixteen screws from the 4 protective covers (a) and remove the 4 slide guides (b) located inside each cover. b a At this point you can proceed to weld your machine onto the central frame of the tracked undercarriage. Be sure to make intermittent welds that do not deform the central structure of the undercarriage. Subsequently, to reassemble the undercarriage, repeat procedures for removing the longitudinal members from the central structure in reverse order. Start by repositioning the slide guides inside the central structure. Close them with the 4 protective covers. Insert the 2 longitudinal members in the central structure and clamp everything together by inserting the pins of the widening cylinder stems into their seats on the longitudinal members.

TECHNICAL DATA AND CONNECTION DIAGRAMS

Be extremely careful to make sure you comply with the DANGER PERICOLO hydraulic connection diagram for the type of tracked undercarriage that you use, as indicated below. First discover, as indicated in the manual, the exact input positions (A and B) for oil to the geared motor, the drainage connection and the two speed drive control (when furnished). A and B inlets of drive geared motors equipped with negative brakes and/or translation control valves must always be connected to open center sections of hydraulic distributors. The Hinowa company will not be responsible for damage to persons and/or property caused by failure to comply with this rule. For the max. performances of your undercarriage, please always refer to what stated in the technical data section of the drawing attached to the order confirmation of the undercarriage you have purchased. In particular the maximum stated operating slope refers to maximum technical performance data expressed for the tracked undercarriage and may not coincide with the actual slopes that can be climbed by your machine while still remaining in a situation of safety.

PRECAUTIONS TO ENACT WHEN STARTING TO USE THE UNDERCARRIAGE INSTALLED

4.1 Work with your machine in conditions of safety

PERICOLO DANGER
Make sure that the work site terrain is strong enough to firmly support your machine. When you work near an excavation position the tracked undercarriage with its drive geared motors to the rear. Be careful not to tip over when working on frozen terrain. A rise in temperature can soften the terrain and make it unstable.

4.2 Parking the machine

PERICOLO DANGER

Park your machine on solid and flat terrain with enough room to permit inspection. If you cannot do this and must park on a slope then insert safety wedges below the tracks.

4.3 Working in streams

If the bottom is level and the water flows slowly then the tracked undercarriage can work in water up to the top surface of the track pads. Be very careful about the type of bottom of the stream since if it is very soft the machine may slowly sink down.

4.4 Use of rubber tracks

Avoid the following situations when working with an undercarriage with rubber tracks: 1. Do not maneuver on hard, stony and uneven surfaces such as streambed rock, gravel, etc. 2. Dont keep the rubber tracks lying in the direct sun light for more than 3 months time. 3. Avoid improper steering maneuvers on asphalt and cement since these cause excess pad wear. Avoid working on asphalt surfaces when their temperature exceeds 60C since this causes both excess pad wear and damage to the asphalt surface. 4. Maneuvers with a loose track on an irregular surface can cause the pad to detach and/or damage to the rubber track. 5. Rubber tracks are designed only for use on soft terrain, not for hard and abrasive surfaces such as sand, stone, minerals, etc. Use of rubber tracks on these surfaces can cause premature wear and deformation. 6. Avoid contact between sharp concrete edges etc. and the rubber track. 7. Fuels or synthetic oils must never come in contact with the rubber track. If this does happen then they must immediately be cleaned. 8. Avoid using rubber tracks in marine and seaside environments since saline air or salt in general corrode adhesion between rubber and metal inner core.

4.5 Rubber track tension

WARNING ATTENZIONE

When the tracked undercarriage is lifted the rubber track must deflect 1015 mm as indicated in the illustration. When tension decreases it must be re-tightened to prevent the machine from losing its tracks because they are too loose (see paragraph 5.3.2).

10 15 mm

4.6 Steel track tension

The chain tension must always be correct. This is correct when, in the top part of the track, the longest section of unsupported chain deflects about 20 mm.

The chain must be re-tightened when deflection exceeds this value (see paragraph 5.3.2).

4.7 Use of hydraulic widening (only for tracked undercarriages with hydraulic widening)

Before widening or narrowing the tracks using the hydraulic widening mechanism first lift the machine off the ground to prevent friction between tracks and terrain, caused by the weight of the machine, from causing damage to the undercarriage structure.

IMPORTANTE IMPORTANT

MAINTENANCE

5.1 Correct inspection and maintenance procedures

Learn how to perform correct maintenance on the tracked undercarriage and how to perform the inspection procedures described in this manual. Always perform maintenance on a solid and level surface. Never grease or lubricate or perform maintenance on the machine while it is in motion. Solidly support the undercarriage if it needs to be lifted up for maintenance. Use great care when maintaining the hydraulic system since oil is very hot when the machine has just finished working. Circuits are under high pressures not only when working but also when work is Keep all components properly installed and in good condition. Immediately repair all damage and replace worn or broken parts. Remove any build-ups of grease, oil or debris. Check for oil leaks and/or damaged hydraulic hoses. Use recommended lubricants. Do not mix different brands of lubricants. Use only original Hinowa spare parts. Keep undercarriage widening cylinder and track-stretcher grease nipples clean. Intervals for periodic maintenance are indicated for normal work conditions. If the tracked undercarriage is used in severe work conditions then maintenance must be performed at shorter intervals. Dispose of lubricants in an ecologically safe way. Thoughtless disposal of lubricants can damage the environment. Become familiar with local anti-pollution laws and regulations before disposing of lubricants. Use suitable containers when draining lubricants. Do not use beverage or food containers that might tempt someone to drink from them. Never pour lubricants on the ground or in a canal, pond or watercourse. Comply with current environmental protection regulations when disposing of lubricants.

5.2 Maintenance of drive geared motors

5.2.1 Checking the oil level in the reduction unit B Every 100 hours check the oil level in the reduction unit gearbox. Usually on the external side of the reduction gear drive there are two plugs: A1 and B or A2 and B, depending on the type of reduction gear drive, as indicated in the picture. Stop the reduction gear drive when the plug B is in the upper position. Remove the plugs A1 or A2 and check that the oil level is aligned with them. If this was not the case, re-fill from B using A1 and A2 as a level check.

A1

A2

5.2.2 Replacement of oil in the reduction unit A2 Replace the oil after the first 100 operating hours A1 and then at subsequent 1000 hour intervals. Proceed as follows to perform the replacement: - stop the reduction gear drive when the B plug is in the lower position, as indicated in the picture; - remove both plugs, A1 and B or A2 and B and let the oil come out completely; - then put the reduction gear drive as indicated in 5.2.1 and fill using the B plug and A1 or A2 as a level check

IMPORTANTE Avoid using oils with different characteristics and IMPORTANT

brands.

5.2.3 Choice of type of reduction unit oil We recommend, for reduction units, using gear oils with E.P. additives and viscosity class according to ISO VG 150 or SAE 80W/90. When temperature variation ranges are very high we recommend using synthetic oils with E.P. properties and minimum 165 viscosity index and viscosity class VG 150 and VG 220. VG100 ISO 3448 -20C +5C IV 95min VG150 +5C +40C IV 95min VG320 +30C +50C IV 95min VG150-200 -30C +65C IV 165min

In all cases select oils that are not subject to rapid aging at their operating temperatures. Continuous duty temperature must not exceed 90C.

5.2.4 Hydraulic circuit oil Use mineral oil with anti-wear additives such as HLP (DIN 51524) or HM (ISO 6743/4) and viscosity according to ISO VG46. Recommended filtration must be 10 m absolute or b1075.

5.3 Rubber track maintenance

5.3.1 Checking track tension Stop your machine on a flat and solid surface. Lift it in safe conditions and put stable supports under the undercarriage frame to properly support it. Measure distance A at the central roller of the undercarriage from the bottom of the roller to the rigid inside surface of the rubber track. Track tension is normal if dimension A is between 10 and 15 mm. Adjust tension as described in the following paragraph if track tension does not comply with these dimensions (loose or too tight).

5.3.2 Track loosening/tightening procedures

1. Remove the screws and take off cover 3 to access the adjustment system. 2. To loosen the track turn valve 1 counter-clockwise no more than 1 turn. One turn of valve 1 is sufficient for loosening the track. 3. If grease does not start to drain out then slowly rotate the track. 4. When you have obtained correct track tension then turn valve 1 clockwise and tighten it. Clean all traces of extruded grease. 5. To stretch the track connect a grease gun to grease nipple 2 and add grease until track tension falls within specified values.

3
The grease contained in the hydraulic track is pressurized. Never loosen grease valve 1 for more than one turn. If the valve is loosened too much you risk expelling grease under pressure and possible serious injury to the machine operator. Also never loosen grease nipple 2. Remove gravel or mud when they are jammed between the sprocket and the track link before loosening the track.

PERICOLO DANGER
It is not normal for the track to remain too tight after turning valve 1 counter-clockwise or for it to remain loose after introducing grease into grease nipple 2. Never try to remove the tracks or disassemble the track-stretching cylinder since pressure of the grease inside the track tension cylinder is extremely dangerous.

5.3.3 Checking the rubber tracks

CARVED PROFILE SCULTURA

Fig. A
SPROCKET FORO RUOTA HOLE DENTATA WHEEL SIDE LATO RUOTA METAL CORE ANIMA METALLICA

STEEL CORDE CABLES D'ACCIAIO

The structure of the rubber track is shown in fig. A. The steel cables and metal core are embedded in the rubber. The carved profiles function to give stability on soft terrain. They are made on the bottom part that rests on the ground. The wheel guides, located on the inside of the track, prevent the track from sliding off the guide rollers.

Causes of damage A) Breakage of steel cables Excess track tension can cause steel cables to break in the following conditions: - when stones or foreign matter accumulate between the track and the undercarriage frame; - when the track slips off its guide system; - in case of great friction such as rapid changes in direction.

B) Wear and breakage of metal cores Excess track tension can cause the metal cores to bend or break just like the steel cables as stated above. Other causes include: - improper contact between track and sprocket; - rotation of internal rollers; - operation on sandy terrain.

C) Detachment of metal cores The metal core functions as an adhesive for the rubber, especially between the core itself and the steel cables. Detachment can be caused by excess track tension or by cable breakage for the following reasons: - metal cores have been rolled by a worn WORN PARTS PARTI USURATE sprocket as indicated in the figure. When this type of wear or abrasion is encountered the sprocket must be replaced as soon as possible. Rubber abrasion resulting on surfaces where guide rollers work incorrectly is illustrated in photo 9 (see appendix 2). This type of breakage, like that indicated in paragraphs A-B-C, leads to total functional inefficiency and the track must be replaced.

D) Fatigue cracks and abrasion 1. Cracks at the base of the carved profiles are caused by fatigue due to rubber bending caused by the sprocket or the track-stretching wheel as indicated in photo 4 (see appendix).

CRACK

2.Cracks and bends on the edge of the rubber are caused by maneuvering the track on concrete edges and curbs.

3. Cracks and abrasions in the rubber on the guide roller paths are caused by compression fatigue of the rubber due to the weight of the wheel combined with operation on sandy terrain or repeated sudden changes in direction. These are illustrated in photos 6-8-9 (see appendix). 4. Abrasion of the carved profile may be caused, in particular, by rotation on concrete or gravel surfaces or hard surfaces (see photo 7 in the appendix 2). Damage as indicated in paragraph D, points 1, 2 and 3, is not fatal for the track and the track can continue to work even in the presence of gradual and progressive damage. Continuation of the damage indicated at point 3 leads to exposure of the metal cores. If this exposure extends for more than half of the circumference of the track then it is time to replace the track, even though it can still be used.

E) Cracks caused by external factors Cracks on the outside surface of the track (the surface in contact with the terrain) are often due to contact with gravel, sharp stones, sharp materials such as sheet metal, nails, glass. These cause cuts as illustrated in photo 10 (see appendix 2). This type of damage is inevitable given the very nature of rubber itself, although the entity depends on how the track is used. Cracks on the inside surface of the circumference and on the edge of the rubber are caused by contact between track and the undercarriage structure or with sharp concrete edges. These are indicated in photos 12 and 13 (see appendix). Even though it does not look very good the track can still be subjected to severe working conditions.

5.3.4 Replacement of rubber tracks The grease contained in the hydraulic cylinder is under pressure. Never loosen grease valve 1 for more than 1 turn. If the valve is loosened too much then pressurized grease may exit and cause severe injury to the machine operator. Never loosen grease nipple 2. Remove gravel or mud when they are jammed between the sprocket and the track link before loosening the track.

DANGER PERICOLO

Removing the rubber track 1. Stop your machine on a solid and level surface. Lift it up and support it in safe conditions as described in paragraph 5.3.1.

6. Make sure track links mesh correctly in the sprocket and in the track-stretching wheel.

7. Adjust track tension (see paragraph 5.3.2 - Track loosening procedures). 8. Set the tracked undercarriage on the ground.

5.4 Steel track maintenance

5.4.1 Checking track tension Stop your machine on solid and level terrain. Check that there is a 1520 mm deflection on the top part of the track in the longest section of unsupported track.

If track tension is not within the above-specified dimensions then follow the procedures described in paragraph 5.3.2 to tighten or loosen tension.

5.4.2 Checking pin and bush wear This type of wear can prevail compared to wear of other chain parts when work is done on terrain that is too abrasive. Replace these units when the length of 4 chain links exceeds the nominal value by more than 2%. Check the number on the tracks reference reported in the order confirmation of your undercarriage.

5.5 Checking sprocket wear

Measuring wear on sprocket and driving gear teeth is one of the most difficult measurements to be done. In normal operating conditions, in fact, wear takes place so that no trace of preexisting tooth remains to furnish a clear reference for determining tooth wear. As a consequence precise data cannot be furnished and it is always necessary, to make any type of judgement, to refer to a new sprocket or wheel of the same type. As a general rule a sprocket should be replaced when wear reaches the illustrated limits. Since wear is never uniform you must always consider the point where wear is greatest. Calculate, in order to determine the maximum admissible wear for each sprocket or driving gear, that this maximum wear must not exceed 3% of the pitch of the chain that meshes with the gear itself.

5.6 Checking bolt tightness

Check the tightness of bolts and components which may become loose depending on the tracked undercarriages type of use. Pay particular attention to frame components such as track-stretching wheels, drive geared motors, driving gears and guide rollers. Make sure these are adequately tightened according to the following table.

5.7 Grease points (only for tracked undercarriages with hydraulic widening only)
Perform this maintenance procedure every 100 work hours, using lithium grease with EP2 consistency. Clean grease nipples before connecting them to the grease gun. Clean all grease that exits out after greasing. IMPORTANTE IMPORTANT Lubrication should be at more frequent intervals if the tracked undercarriage is used in particularly severe operating conditions. The grease points for the tracked undercarriage widening cylinder pins are illustrated below.
