5.18 Shockmounts
CAUTION: Fuel and hydraulic oils deteriorate the rubber of the
shockmounts. The engine compartment should therefore be
thoroughly cleaned at regular intervals.
CAUTION: Shockmounts are not designed to absorb drops of over 8
cm (3 in.).
Should it be necessary to replace one or more of the shockmounts, it
is recommended to change all the other shockmounts at the same
time.
Engine shockmounts
5.18.1 Stop the machine, apply the parking brake and switch off the engine,
and allow engine to cool.
5.18.2 Open the engine hood and fix it in the raised position with the rod.
5.18.3 Check the wear of the diesel engine shockmounts. The rubber should
not be broken nor should it show any signs of having lost its resilience.
The shockmounts prevent excessive vibrations from reaching the
frame and thus also protect the other components mounted on the
engine from damage and faulty operation.
Exciter drum shockmounts
5.18.4 Stop the machine, apply the parking brake and switch off the engine.
5.18.5 Check the wear of the exciter drum shockmounts. The rubber should
not be broken nor should it show any signs of having lost its resilience.
The shockmounts prevent excessive vibration from reaching the frame
and thus also protect the other components from damage and faulty
operation.
