1. SAFETY

DANGER
FALLING LOAD HAZARD!
Uncontrolled boom descent will cause death or severe injury.
Never go beneath the boom unless it is supported. Before
disconnecting hydraulic hoses or valves, always make sure that
the system is not under static load. Before starting any repair
work, always release the static load by running the boom to rest
against a suitable mechanical support or to its extreme position.

DANGER
FALLING LOAD HAZARD!
Uncontrolled boom descent due to excessive pressure in the
cylinder or hoses will cause death or severe injury.
TRIPLE CHAMBER CYLINDERS ONLY: Never plug in the triple
chamber hose connector Y or the pump cylinder line (PUMP
LINE) if the cylinder is used. If plugged, the oil in the triple
chamber cylinder cannot escape, generating excess pressure
and risk of explosion of the cylinder and hoses.

DANGER
FALLING LOAD HAZARD!
Uncontrolled boom descent due to faulty seals or a damaged or
disconnected Y port hose will cause death or severe injury.
Malfunctioning of automatic parallelism can be an indication of
faulty cylinder seals. In models without automatic parallelism,
possible seal failure must be checked daily by testing the
cylinder seals according to the current instructions. The
condition of the Y port hydraulic hose and the tightening torque
of the connector must be checked daily.

DANGER
FALLING LOAD HAZARD!
Uncontrolled boom descent due to faulty boom operation will
cause death or severe injury.
The faulty operation of a boom function is an indication of a
system fault. In such an event, immediately stop all work with
the rig in question. Determine and properly repair the cause of
the fault before continuing work.

SB20/SB20NV/SB40/SB40NV BOOMS

HIGH-PRESSURE INJECTION HAZARD!


High-pressure oil can cause serious injury.
Allow the pressure to be released from the hydraulic circuit
before opening the plugs or connectors.

OBSERVE ABSOLUTE CLEANLINESS WHEN DISASSEMBLING


AND ASSEMBLING HYDRAULIC DEVICES. Whenever a cylinder
has been removed, the hydraulic circuit must be bled and
flushed according to instructions. This helps to avoid operating
disturbances caused by dirt and air in the cylinders.

Operating, service and adjustment procedures must be carried


out only by personnel with specialized operation and service
training. Read and ensure that you understand the operating,
maintenance, and safety instructions before using or servicing
the rig.

The operator must read the instruction manuals provided by the


manufacturer and follow the instructions given in them. Always
plan your work ahead to prevent accidents, material damage or
personal injury. The operator must be familiar with the rig’s
performance capabilities.

4.3. Checking the boom clearances

To check the clearances, move the boom to different positions and observe the movements and
sliding surface of each joint separately. Pay special attention to the hydraulic cylinders and their
mountings. If necessary, replace worn bushings between the cylinder pins and mounting ears. A new
bushing is easier to install if the frame and the cylinder ear are heated with a blowtorch before
installation.

Replacing the front slide piece without removing the inner tube

Remove the wiper (11) and wiper flange (10 and 12) mounting bolts (8), and slide the wiper (11) and
wiper flanges (10 and 12) further along the inner tube (7).

14

The front slide plate (14) can be replaced without removing the inner tube (7) from the outer tube (6).
Replace the plate by running the inner tube (7) as far out from the outer tube (6) as possible using
the zoom function, by removing all slide piece locking screws (1) and locking screw O-rings (2) from
the outer tube and by loosening the butt end tightening screws (3). The slide plate parts (1 to 5) on
the outer tube front section must be removed entirely so that the inner tube (7) can be lifted upward
in order to create room to replace the front slide plate (14). If the rear slide plate (13) has to be
changed, the inner tube (7) must be removed from the outer tube (6) altogether.

Removing the inner tube from the outer tube

Remove the wiper mounting flanges (10 and 12) as well as the wiper (11) and, if necessary, the
hydraulic hoses and electrical cables.
Remove the cover (20) located on the outer pipe (6) butt end. Using the zoom function, run the inner
tube (7) outward until the extension cylinder pin (18) and its clamping mechanism parts are visible in
the hole located on the top or the bottom (butt end) side of the outer tube (6).
Remove the locking screws (1) and the locking screw O-rings (2), and loosen the adjusting screws
(3) slightly.
Unscrew and remove the mounting bolt of the extension cylinder’s cylinder pin (16). From above and
below the cylinder pin, remove the cones (17 and 19) centering the pin. Remove the cylinder pin (18)
using a suitable punch. The inner tube (7) can now be removed from the outer tube (6).
Now the rear slide plate (13) can be replaced. The slide plate (13) is mounted on the outer tube with
two hexagonal screws (15). Remove the screws and replace the slide piece with a new one.

DANGER
When working on the boom, make sure that the boom and its
parts are properly supported as the center of gravity of the
boom shifts when the inner tube is removed from the outer tube.

Note that the wiper and it’s flanges must be installed on the
inner tube before it is inserted into the outer tube.

4.8. Checking bearing bushings and axle pins

In order to check the condition of the bearing bushing and its axle pin on the boom joints or the
hydraulic cylinder mounting ears, move the boom or its component to a position where the weight of
the boom or component does not rest on the cylinder to be checked. In this position, rock the boom
or its component back and forth by hand in the cylinder's operating direction. Any play between the
bearing bushings and axle pins can be easily detected by observing the movements of the boom or
its component and the cylinder.

4.9. Checking and replacing the bearing bushings

The boom joints and the hydraulic cylinder mounting lugs are equipped with bearing bushings and
axle pins. All sliding surfaces between these parts should be lubricated with grease via the provided
grease nipples.
The bearing bushings in the hydraulic cylinder mounting lugs or frame can be removed with a suitable
punch.
When installing a new bushing, the temperature difference between the bushing and the hydraulic
cylinder mounting lug or frame opening must be 40–50 °C.
When installing a bushing into a frame opening, the surrounding metal should be heated with a
blowtorch to bring its temperature up to 40–50 °C higher than the temperature of the bushing.
When installing a bearing bushing into a hydraulic cylinder mounting lug, the required temperature
difference should be reached by cooling the bushing instead of using a blowtorch. This is to avoid
risk of flame damage of the hydraulic cylinder seals.

Check the tightening torque. The correct values are as follows:

Size of cylinder pin Using torque wrench Using pneumatic tool


M12 60 Nm 55 Nm
M16 150 Nm 135 Nm
M20 290 Nm 270 Nm
M24 530 Nm 490 Nm

Table: Tightening torques of the cylinder pins

Check the position of the cut (A) in the pins. The


cut must be at a right angle to the cylinder’s di-
rection of movement, and downwards if possible. A
Lubricate the pins carefully before installing, see
lubrication recommendations in “Lubricant and
coolant recommendations”.

DANGER
IMPACT OR CRUSHING HAZARD!
Uncontrolled falling of the boom or its component will cause
death or severe injury.
Support the boom correctly. Additional support is required
when changing the main components of the boom.

4.11. Rotation head 170

4.11.1. Principle of operation of the rotation head

The left-hand tooth contact (G2) of the piston’s (3) outer surface with the gear ring (6) converts the
axial movement of the piston into a counterclockwise rotary movement. The rotary movement is
transferred via the right-hand side gear contact (G1) onto the gear shaft (4) causing it to rotate
clockwise.

Installation

Remove paint and other foreign particles from the joint flange surfaces. Clean the lines before
connection. There must be enough free space around the unit to enable quick and easy replacement
of parts.

Commissioning

When the operating temperature has been reached, check all connections, screw joints, etc. Also
check the hydraulic oil viscosity (recommended value: 40 cSt). The cleanness of the filter must be
checked regularly during running in.

Bleeding the rotation mechanism

RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY! When opening a bleeding screw


or an overcenter valve while the rotation mechanism is installed
on the boom, prevent free rotation of the rotation mechanism.
Pressurized oil spray can cause serious injury. Beware of oil
spray when opening bleeding screws!

1. Remove air from the hoses (connect hoses A1 and B1 together and circulate the oil).
2. If the rotation mechanism is not connected to the boom, turn the mechanism so that the overcenter
valves are facing upward. Connect the hoses to the rotation mechanism.
3. Run the rotation from one extreme position to the other and center it in the middle of its movement.
4. Open one of the valve block bleeding screws (in the cylinder chamber) cautiously. When the flow
of air or oil mixed with air ceases, close the screw.
5. Repeat the procedure with the other bleeding screw.
6. Repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 until no more air or oil mixed with air leaks from the bleeding screws.
7. After this, ensure the operation of the rotation by rotating the mechanism twice from one extreme
position to the other.

The screw chamber bleeding screw is not opened during bleeding.


When connecting the rotation mechanism to the boom, make sure that no air enters the hydraulic
system.

The rotation mechanism may be disassembled and assembled
only by persons trained to do so.

Disassembly may be completed only after the rotation mechanism has been removed.
Observe absolute cleanliness during assembly and
disassembly.

The rotation mechanism seals must be removed using the proper tools. Care must be taken not to
damage the seal surfaces.

Replacing the piston (3) seals:

- Remove the bottom (2) by opening the hexagonal socket screws (24).
- The piston (3) can be separated from the housing (1) by turning it anti-clockwise. If the piston does
not come off easily, use a clamping device.
- Remove the old seals.
- Clean the rotation motor thoroughly. Polish the operating and seal surfaces.

Replacing the intermediate shaft (4) and the housing (1) seals (only replace if leaking):

- Remove the outer gear ring (6) from the housing (1). The gear ring is equipped with three threads
for attaching bolts to assist in pressing the gear ring off the housing.
- Open the hexagonal socket screws (25). Mark the position of the clamp washer to facilitate later
re-installation in the correct position. Remove the clamp washer (8), as with the gear ring (6), using
the bolts.
- Screw out the locking nut (7).
- Remove the gear intermediate shaft (4).
- Remove the old seals.
- Clean the rotation mechanism thoroughly. Polish the operating and seal surfaces.

When the rotation mechanism has been cleaned thoroughly, install the seals. To avoid premature
damage, observe due care when installing the seals. The seals and guiding tapes must be lubricated
with an acid-free lubricant.
When installing the piston seal (11), expand the outer ring slowly and fit the piston seal in place using
an installation tool (expanding jacket and expanding mandrel).
Use of a packing seal is recommended if installation of the piston (3) is problematic due to an
overstretched ring.
Order of assembly of the rotation mechanism:
1. Insert the sliding thrust washer (10), the pins (9) and the intermediate shaft (4) in the housing (1).
2. Install the cylindrical thrust roller bearing (23).
3. Tighten the locking nut (7) until the intermediate shaft (4) can no longer be moved. Open the
locking nut slightly and move the intermediate shaft (4) to transfer the grease to the cylindrical
thrust roller bearing (23). Tighten the locking nut (7) until an axial clearance of approximately 0.02–
0.05 mm is achieved on the intermediate shaft (4).
4. Install the clamp washer (8) in place (note the correct position as marked during disassembly).
5. Install new spring washers (26) on the hexagonal socket screws (25). Cross-tighten the hexagonal
socket screws (25) to 38 Nm. Cross-tighten the screws to their final torque of 115 Nm.
6. Install the outer gear ring (6) (note position).
7. Install the piston (3) on the intermediate shaft (4) and the outer gear ring (6). Check that the splines
fit into the marked places.
8. Install the bottom (2) carefully.
9. Cross-tighten the hexagonal socket screws (24) on the bottom to 105 Nm. Cross-tighten the
hexagonal socket screws to their final torque of 315 Nm.
10. Fill the chamber with grease via the grease nipple (30).

4.12. Hydraulic dual rotation head

The left-hand tooth contact (G2) of the piston’s (3) outer surface with the gear ring (6) converts the
axial movement of the piston into a counterclockwise rotary movement. The rotary movement is
transferred via the right-hand side gear contact (G1) onto the gear shaft (4) causing it to rotate
clockwise.

4.13. Boom hydraulic circuit

4.13.1. Flushing and bleeding the boom hydraulic circuit

Flushing and bleeding of the boom hydraulic circuit is done to help prevent malfunctions caused by
air in the cylinders or dirt in the hydraulic lines that may have accumulated if the cylinders or hoses
have been disconnected.
The boom hydraulic circuit must always be flushed and the
cylinders bled when a cylinder or a hose has been
disconnected. This procedure is performed to ensure that the
boom functions without disturbances.

4.14. Hydraulic functions of the boom movements

4.14.1. Boom lift and lower function SB20, SB20NV

Boom lift function


When the boom is lifted, oil flows from the carrier control valve port (B1 / B9) through the block (1)
ports (G-G1) to the lift cylinder (2) port (A) and further on to the lift cylinder (2) piston side.
Oil also flows in the block (1) through the pressure reducing valve (.02) (S7) and overcenter valve (.
01) (X1) to the port (E1), and from there to the feed forward tilt cylinder (6) port (A) and onward to the
forward tilt cylinder (6) piston side.
The block (1) contains a pressure reducing valve (.02) (S7) (100 bars) which reduces the pressure
entering the forward tilt cylinder (6) A-port so that, for example, the forward tilt cylinder pressure
reducing valve (6.02) (350 bars) is prevented from opening when certain auxiliary devices are used.
The return flow from the lift cylinder (2) piston rod side flows through the overcenter valve (.02) onward
via the lift cylinder (2) port (B) and then through the block (1) ports (P1-P) to the carrier control valve
port (A1/A9) and onward to the hydraulic oil tank.
From the forward tilt cylinder (6) piston rod side, the oil flows through the overcenter valve (.01) and
onward to the block (1) port (F1) and then via the pump cylinder line (PUMP LINE) through the block
(1) port (Y) to the boom lift cylinder (2) hydraulic connection (Y), and from there to the lift cylinder
triple chamber. The distances traveled by the forward tilt cylinder (6) and boom lift cylinder (2) are
equal, thus acting as part of the automatic parallelism system.
If the feed forward tilt cylinder (6) is in the end position during boom lifting, the triple chamber of the
boom lift cylinder (2) receives replacement oil from the hydraulic oil tank via the block (1) intake valve
(.07).
Boom lower function
When the boom is lowered, oil flows from the carrier control valve port (A1/A9) through the block (1)
ports (P - P1) to the lift cylinder (2) port (B) and onward to the lift cylinder (2) piston rod side.
When the boom is lowered, the capacity of the triple chamber of the lift cylinder (2) decreases and
oil flows via the lift cylinder (2) port (Y), along the PUMP LINE line, through the block (1) via the ports
(Y-F1) and onward via the forward tilt cylinder (6) port (B) to the forward tilt cylinder (6) piston rod
side causing the forward tilt cylinder to perform a retract stroke, thus retracting it. In this case, the
distances traveled by the forward tilt cylinder and lift cylinder are equal, thus acting as part of the
automatic parallelism system.
The return flow from the forward tilt cylinder (6) piston side flows through the overcenter valve (.03)
via the forward tilt cylinder (6) port (A) to the block (1) and port (E1), then through the overcenter
valve (1.01) (X1) and pressure reducing valve (1.02) (S7) and block (1) port (T), and on to the hydraulic
oil tank.
The return flow from the lift cylinder (2) piston side flows through the overcenter valve (2.01) and lift
cylinder (2) port (A) and further on through the block (1) ports (G1-G) to the carrier control valve port
(B1 / B9) and onward to the hydraulic oil tank.

4.14.2. Boom lift and lower function SB40, SB40NV

Boom lift function

When the boom is lifted, oil flows from the carrier control valve line (B1/B9) through the block (1) ports
(A9-A) to the lift cylinder (2) port (A) and onward to the lift cylinder (2) piston side.
Oil also flows through the block (1) pressure reducing valve (.02) (S6) and port (G), continuing to the
valve block (14) port (G), from where it flows through the overcenter valve (14.01) (X1) and port (E1)
onward to the feed forward tilt cylinder port (A) and to the forward tilt cylinder (6) piston side.
The block (1) contains a pressure reducing valve (.02) (S6) (100 bars) which reduces the pressure
entering the forward tilt cylinder (6) A-port so that, for example, the forward tilt cylinder (6) pressure
reducing valve (.02) (250 bars) do not open when certain auxiliary devices are used.
The return flow from the lift cylinder (2) piston rod side flows through the overcenter valve (.02) onward
via the lift cylinder (2) port (B) and through the block (1) ports (B-B9) to the carrier control valve port
(A1/A9) and onward to the hydraulic oil tank.
From the forward tilt cylinder (6) piston rod side, oil flows through the overcenter valve (.01) and
onward to the block (14) port (F1) and then via the pump cylinder line (PUMP LINE) through the block
(14) port (H) to the boom lift cylinder (2) hydraulic connection (Y) and from there to the lift cylinder
triple chamber. The distances traveled by the forward tilt cylinder (6) and boom lift cylinder (2) are
equal, thus acting as part of the automatic parallelism system.
If the feed forward tilt cylinder (6) is in the end position during boom lifting, the triple chamber of the
boom lift cylinder (2) receives replacement oil from the hydraulic oil tank via the block (14) intake
valve (.07).

4.14.3. Operation of the boom lift and swing cylinder: SB20, SB20NV, SB40, and SB40NV
(pump cylinder line)

The boom lift and swing cylinders are triple chamber cylinders. Besides chambers A and B, the
cylinders have a triple chamber built inside the hollow piston rod. For example, as the lift cylinder
length increases, the triple chamber capacity increases, and the cylinder takes oil from the forward
tilt cylinder. When the boom swing cylinder length increases, the capacity of the swing cylinder triple
chamber increases, and the cylinder takes oil from the feed swing cylinder, thus acting as a key part
of the automatic parallelism system. Correspondingly, as the lift cylinder triple chamber capacity
decreases, oil flows over to the forward tilt cylinder. Similarly, as the boom swing cylinder triple
chamber diminishes, oil flows over to the feed swing cylinder.

DANGER
Never plug triple chamber hose connector Y or the pump
cylinder line (PUMP LINE) if the cylinder is used. If plugged, the
oil in the triple chamber cylinder cannot escape, generating
excess pressure and risk of explosion of the cylinder and
hoses.

When the cylinder has to be repaired or the hydraulic oil inside


needs to be changed, ensure that no air is left in the cylinder
liner when it is filled with hydraulic oil (compression ignition
hazard). The correct way to fill the cylinder is as follows:

1. Place the cylinder in a standing position with the cylinder rod directly upwards.
2. Remove the plug (C1).
3. Open the restrictor (C).
4. Connect the hydraulic oil filling hose to the fitting (Y).
5. Slowly fill the cylinder liner with hydraulic oil until oil comes out of the restrictor (C).
6. Close the restrictor (C).
7. Reinstall the plug (C1)
8. Turn the cylinder to horizontal position so that oil cannot escape the cylinder, and disconnect the
filling hose.

Testing the lift/swing cylinder seals

The pump cylinder line is a hydraulic line between the boom lift cylinder's triple chamber and the feed
tilt cylinder on one end, and the boom swing cylinder's triple chamber and the feed swing cylinder on
the other end. The purpose of the line is to implement the boom's hydraulic automatic parallelism.

DANGER
FALLING LOAD HAZARD!
Uncontrolled boom descent will cause death or severe injury.
Never go beneath the boom unless it is supported. Before
disconnecting hydraulic hoses or valves, always make sure that
the system is not under static load. Before starting any repair
work, always release the static load by running the boom to rest
against a suitable mechanical support or to its extreme position.

DANGER
FALLING LOAD HAZARD!
Uncontrolled boom descent due to excessive pressure in the
cylinder or hoses will cause death or severe injury.
TRIPLE CHAMBER CYLINDERS ONLY: Never plug in the triple
chamber hose connector Y or the pump cylinder line (PUMP
LINE) if the cylinder is used. If plugged, the oil in the triple
chamber cylinder cannot escape, generating excess pressure
and risk of explosion of the cylinder and hoses.

DANGER
FALLING LOAD HAZARD!
Uncontrolled boom descent due to faulty seals or a damaged or
disconnected Y port hose will cause death or severe injury.
Malfunctioning of automatic parallelism can be an indication of
faulty cylinder seals. In models without automatic parallelism,
possible seal failure must be checked daily by testing the
cylinder seals according to the current instructions. The
condition of the Y port hydraulic hose and the tightening torque
of the connector must be checked daily.

DANGER
FALLING LOAD HAZARD!
Uncontrolled boom descent due to faulty boom operation will
cause death or severe injury.
The faulty operation of a boom function is an indication of a
system fault. In such an event, immediately stop all work with
the rig in question. Determine and properly repair the cause of
the fault before continuing work.

The triple chamber seals must be tested after 1000 percussion


hours or every 12 months. If the seals have failed, the cylinder
must be properly repaired before work resumes.

Testing the boom lift cylinder seals

1. Drive the boom to the horizontal position and brace it securely.


2. Carefully and slowly undo the hose from Y-port of the boom lift cylinder and plug the hydraulic
hose end with a steel cap.
3. Carefully and slowly undo the hose from B-port of the boom lift cylinder and plug the hydraulic
hose end and the B-port of the cylinder with a steel cap.
4. With powerpack or diesel engine running, carefully apply pressure to the boom lift cylinder A-port
(boom lift) and observe if any oil continues to come out from the cylinder Y-port.
WARNING! FLUID INJECTION HAZARD!
High-pressure hydraulic fluid can penetrate the skin, causing
serious injury.
Beware of the oil spray from the cylinder Y-port!
Don’t place your body parts in the cylinder Y-port area!

NOTE! Feed tilt could move when applying pressure to boom lift!
5. If oil is coming out, it means that the inner piston seals are leaking. This cylinder must be
overhauled or replaced immediately before continuing to work.

4.14.4. Boom swing function SB20, SB20NV

When the boom is swung, oil flows in from the carrier control valve port (A5 / B8) via the block (1)
port (R) and out from the port (R1), continuing to the boom swing cylinder (4) port (A) and onward to
the boom swing cylinder (4) piston side.
The return flow from the boom swing cylinder (4) piston rod side flows through the overcenter valve
(.02) from the boom swing cylinder (4) port (B) to the block (1) port (L1), and then out from the block
port (L) to the carrier control valve port (B5 / A8) and onward to the hydraulic oil tank.

Swing cylinder outward movement, automatic parallelism

The automatic parallelism of the “outward” movement of the boom swing cylinder (4) operates as
follows: oil flows from the carrier control valve port (A5 / B8) via the block (1) ports (R-R1) to the boom
swing cylinder (4) port (A) and onward to the boom swing cylinder (4) piston side. Simultaneously in
the block (1), oil flows from the overcenter valve (.09) (X2) and the block (1) port (C1) via the feed
swing cylinder (5) port (A) to the swing cylinder (5) piston side.
The return flow from the feed swing cylinder (5) piston rod side flows through the overcenter valve (.
01) via the feed swing cylinder (5) port (B) and through the boom block (1) ports (D1 and B) via the
pump cylinder line (PUMP LINE) to the boom swing cylinder (4) port (Y), continuing onward to the
boom swing cylinder (4) triple chamber, after which the distances traveled by the feed swing cylinder
(5) and boom swing cylinder (4) are equal, thus acting as part of the automatic parallelism system.
If the feed forward tilt cylinder (5) is in the end position during boom swing, the triple chamber of the
boom swing cylinder (4) receives replacement oil from the hydraulic oil tank via the block (1) intake
valve (.08).

Swing cylinder inward movement, automatic parallelism

The automatic parallelism of the “inward” movement of the boom swing cylinder (4) operates as
follows: oil flows from the carrier control valve port (B5 / A8) through the block (1) ports (L-L1) to the
boom swing cylinder (4) port (B) and onward to the boom swing cylinder (4) piston rod side.
Simultaneously, the oil pressure opens the overcenter valve (.09) located in the block (1).
The return flow from the boom swing cylinder (4) piston side flows through the boom swing cylinder
(4) overcenter valve (.01) via the swing cylinder (4) port (A) onward to the block (1) via ports (R1, R),
and then via the carrier control valve port (A5/B8) to the hydraulic oil tank.
The capacity of the boom swing cylinder (4) triple chamber cylinder decreases when the cylinder is
run inward, after which oil flows via the boom swing cylinder (4) port (Y) to the block (1) port (B),
continuing through the block (1) port (D1) and onward from the feed swing cylinder (5) port (B) to the
feed swing cylinder (5) rod side.
The return flow from the feed swing cylinder (5) piston side flows through the overcenter valve (.02)
to the port (A), and from there into the boom block (1) port (C1), continuing through the opened
overcenter valve (1.09) to join the return line coming from the boom swing cylinder piston side, then
continuing through the block (1) port (R) to the carrier control valve port (A5 / B8) and onward to the
hydraulic oil tank.

(R) and through the pilot-controlled directional valve (1.05) to the block (B8), and onward via the
carrier control valve port (A5 / B8) to the hydraulic oil tank.
The capacity of the boom swing cylinder (4) triple chamber cylinder decreases when the cylinder is
run inward, after which oil flows via the boom swing cylinder (4) port (Y) to the block (14) port (B),
continuing through the block (14) port (D1) and onward from the feed swing cylinder (5) port (B) to
the feed swing cylinder (5) rod side.
The return flow from the feed swing cylinder (5) piston side flows through the overcenter valve (.02)
to the port (A), and from there into the boom block (14) port (C1), continuing through the opened
overcenter valve (14.11) to join the return line coming from the boom swing cylinder (4) piston side,
then continuing through the boom block (14) port (R) to the block (1) port (R), and from there through
the pilot-controlled directional valve (1.05) to the port (B8) and further on to the carrier control valve
port (A5 / B8) and onward to the hydraulic oil tank.

4.15. Extreme swing position control circuit SB40, SB40NV

Installed on the boom (right and left side) swing arm, there are 2 plunger valves (12 and 13) that react
when the boom’s swing angle exceeds the allowed (device-specific) value, causing the hydraulic
circuit connections to cause the boom to swing backward. The plunger valves react whenever the
swing angle exceeds the allowed angle when the lift or swing function is used or the two are used
simultaneously. Due to the mechanical properties of the boom, it swings simultaneously when lifted.
The boom swing does not exceed the allowed limit in the horizontal position, thus not affecting the
plunger valves.
Example: the boom is swung to the side opposite the swing cylinder until the plunger valve (13) is
activated.
Oil flows from the carrier control valve port (A5 / B8) to the block (1) port (B8) and from there through
the shuttle valves (.06) and (.04) to the block (1) port (P3), continuing through the activated plunger
valve (13) ports (P-BR), and then diverging as a control pressure (the pressure level of which is
adjusted appropriately by an adjustable one-way restrictor valve) which controls the pilot-controlled
directional valve (1.05) spool position to allow the swing cylinder (4) piston side pressure to be
discharged into the hydraulic oil tank (pressure is allowed to discharge freely into the hydraulic oil
tank as long as the plunger valve (13) is activated).
At the same time, the oil which has flowed through the plunger valve (13) flows to the block (14)
connection (I) and onward to the pressure-controlled directional valve (14.09) (directional valve spool
position changes), continuing from the block (14) port (L1) to the swing cylinder (4) port (B) and further
on to the swing cylinder (4) piston rod side, at which point the boom swings backward.
The return flow from the swing cylinder (4) piston side flows through the overcenter valve (4.01) in
connection with the swing cylinder, then out from the port (A) to the block (14) port (R1) and through
the pressure-controlled directional valve (14.10) via the block (14) port (R) onward to the block (1)
port (R) and further on through the pilot-controlled directional valve (1.05) to the port (T1), and from
there to the hydraulic oil tank.
In order for the extreme position control circuit to work, the plunger valves (12 and 13) always require
hydraulic pressure on the P-line when lifting, swinging or using both functions at the same time. The
block (1) contains 3 shuttle valves (1.03, 1.04 and 1.06) which allow the pressure to enter the plunger
valve P-line. The swing control circuit works similarly when the boom is swung to the other side.

4.23.1. All hydraulic functions are slow or not working at all

Problem Action
1. The hydraulic oil level is too low or the oil vis- Check the oil level. Check the oil recommenda-
cosity is too high tions for the correct viscosity.
2. The hydraulic circuit leaks Check the hoses and connections.
3. The control valve pressure-relief valve is Measure the pressure by connecting a pressure
functioning incorrectly and the required 210 bar gauge (max. 250 bar) to the line between the
operating pressure has not been reached control valve and hydraulic pump, using a T-fit-
ting. Pressure-relief valve malfunctions are usu-
ally caused by impurities. Dirt can block the car-
tridge valve. Repair the fault by removing the
cartridge valve and replacing its O-rings. Before
reinstalling the cartridge, clean it carefully with
compressed air. If the problem persists, the
valve cartridge is probably worn and must be
replaced.
4. Oil pump is not working properly Check the pump by connecting the supply and
LS lines of the pump to another boom. If the
other boom does not work properly, the pump is
probably damaged. You can also check the
pump supply with a flow meter. If the booms
feature separate oil tanks, remember that the oil
level decreases in one tank and increases in the
other tank when the booms are cross-connec-
ted.
5. The pump intake pipe is clogged Drain and clean the tank. Check the hose.
6. The non-return valve between the carrier and Check the non-return valve and replace it if nec-
boom hydraulics leaks essary.

4.23.2. Automatic parallelism is not working properly

1. Damaged seals in the triple chamber of the boom lift or swing cylinder (pump cylinder). First
symptom of damaged seals is deterioration of the lift or swing cylinder (pump cylinders) holding
capacity when using automatic parallelism.
2. Faulty O-ring or worn valve seat causes leakage in the pressure relief valve or overcenter valve of
an automatic parallelism valve block. To locate and establish the leak or fault, remove one hydraulic
hose at a time from between the valve block and control valve. Replace all faulty and worn
components.
3. Air in the pump cylinder. Bleed the cylinders as instructed in sections "Lift circuit" (p. 37) and
"Swing circuit" (p. 39) .
4. Test the condition of the seals in the lift and swing cylinder as instructed in section "Testing the
lift/swing cylinder seals" (p. 50) .

4.23.3. Boom will not swing sideways (SB40 / SB40NV)

Boom swing pillar plunger valve is stuck or the hose from the plunger valves to the hydraulic oil tank
is clogged.
• Check the operation of the valves.

• Check the adjustment value of the one-way restrictor valves.

The one-way restrictor valves are adjusted by first closing them fully and then opening them a 1/4 to
3/4 turn.

4.23.4. Boom does not hold its position

1. Leaking overcenter valve of boom swing or lift cylinder. Broken O-ring or worn seat surfaces.
- Replace damaged or worn parts.

2. Dirt in the hydraulic circuit.


- Flush the hydraulic circuit according to instructions.

3. Air trapped in the cylinders.


- Bleed the cylinders according to the instructions given in the “Boom hydraulic circuit” section.

Las principales diferencias estructurales entre los cilindros hidráulicos son:


• accionamiento simple y doble
• calibre del cilindro
• carrera
• equipo de la válvula de retención

La carrera puede limitarse con un espaciador montado en el lado del pistón o en el lado del vástago
del pistón. El tipo de espaciador correcto se detalla en la lista de piezas de repuesto.

2. SEGURIDAD

Las tareas de instalación, ajuste y reparación deben realizarse


exclusivamente por expertos que hayan recibido la formación
adecuada y conozcan el equipo.

Antes de arrancar el equipo, asegúrese de que no haya nadie


trabajando cerca del equipo o debajo de éste.

Nunca desconecte las válvulas o mangueras hidráulicas sin


comprobar que no hay ninguna carga estática en el sistema.

Familiarícese con los manuales de usuario y de mantenimiento


antes de empezar a trabajar con un cilindro, e infórmese sobre
todos los componentes con los que trabajará.

Siga las instrucciones de instalación publicadas por Sandvik.

Utilice todos los dispositivos de seguridad necesarios y


compruebe su estado.

El uso y mantenimiento correctos garantizan una vida útil más


prolongada del cilindro hidráulico.

3. VÁLVULA DE SOBRECENTRO

La mayoría de cilindros hidráulicos están equipados con una válvula de sobrecentro, que está
integrada en el circuito hidráulico o conectada a éste mediante mangueras hidráulicas.

Las válvulas de sobrecentro son componentes


de una sola pieza y no pueden reajustarse. Se
incluyen conjuntos de juntas de sellado (1). 1

Las cuatro funciones de una válvula de sobrecentro son:


• Si una manguera conectada al cilindro hidráulico se rompe, la válvula de sobrecentro funcionará
como válvula de seguridad.
• Durante la perforación, la válvula de sobrecentro impide el flujo de aceite desde el cilindro hasta
el depósito de aceite. El brazo mantendrá con precisión la posición a la que se desplazó mediante
las válvulas de control del brazo.
• Cuando el brazo se desplaza, la válvula de sobrecentro no permitirá que fluya aceite desde el lado
de retorno hasta que la presión del lado presurizado se eleve lo suficiente. Los movimientos del
brazo serán más suaves y precisos, y el propio peso del brazo no podrá acelerar la velocidad del
movimiento.
• Si una fuerza exterior eleva la presión del cilindro por encima del valor establecido para la válvula
de sobrecentro, la válvula se abrirá y permitirá la salida de aceite del cilindro. De este modo se
permite al brazo ceder bajo la fuerza exterior, y se evita así que sufra daños mecánicos.

El valor configurado de las válvulas de sobrecentro será


distinto según las diferentes finalidades. Por lo tanto, no debe
sustituir una válvula de sobrecentro por una válvula de otro
cilindro. El valor configurado de la válvula está perforado en la
parte superior de la válvula.

5. DESMONTAJE

Antes de empezar a retirar el cilindro, compruebe que el brazo esté correctamente apoyado, y que
se hayan retirado todas las cargas estáticas del cilindro. Desconecte las mangueras hidráulicas del
cilindro y conecte los extremos abiertos de la manguera y los adaptadores del cilindro.
Retire los anillos de bloqueo de los pasadores del cilindro y apoye y fije el cilindro de modo que no
pueda caerse. Extraiga los pasadores.
Lave el cilindro por fuera y móntelo firmemente antes de empezar a desmontarlo.

5.1. Cilindro

Si puede utilizar presión hidráulica, conecte las mangueras al cilindro, extraiga el vástago del pistón
(8) y retire las válvulas de retención (4). Desenrosque los tornillos de la tapa (2) o, si la tapa está
roscada, ábrala con una herramienta adecuada. Vuelva a roscar las válvulas de retención (4), y retire
el vástado del pistón (8) y la tapa del cilindro (2). Al hacer presión para extraerlo, apoye el vástago
del pistón (8) adecuadamente para retirarlo con suavidad.
Procure no derramar aceite.

5.2. Pistón

Monte el vástago del pistón firmemente desde el extremo de la argolla, golpee suavemente el saliente
de la arandela de bloqueo para extraerla de la ranura de la tuerca, y retire la tuerca (7). Retire el
pistón (3) y las juntas. Extraiga la tapa del cilindro (2) del vástago del pistón, retire las juntas de la
tapa del cilindro y el rascador y sustitúyalos. Desenrosque las válvulas de retención (4) del conducto
del cilindro y examine su estado. Lave todos los componentes.

5.3. Inspección

Sustituya todas las juntas y rascadores. Examine todas las superficies deslizantes. Si detecta algún
arañazo al pasar las uñas por encima de la superficie deberá sustituir los componentes, ya que la
capacidad de sellado de las superficies ya no es óptima. Compruebe también que el vástago del
pistón esté recto. Si el vástago está deformado, compruebe que no sea a causa de un espaciador
incorrecto. Compruebe el estado de los casquillos de cojinete (10), y sustitúyalos si presentan signos
de desgaste.

5.4. Sustitución de los casquillos de los cojinetes

Si el cilindro ya se ha retirado del equipo, apoye bien el cilindro y golpee suavemente los casquillos
antiguos del cojinete para extraerlos utilizando un punzón expulsador adecuado y un martillo de
cobre.
Resultará más fácil colocar los nuevos casquillos de cojinete si se enfrían en una nevera, y si se
calienta la argolla del cilindro con un soplete.

6. MONTAJE

Si la carrera del cilindro se limita con un espaciador y se deja


fuera, el cilindro puede dañarse al ser utilizado. Compruebe que
haya colocado el tipo de espaciador correcto.

Engrase las ranuras de la junta y coloque las jun-


tas tóricas, la junta del obturador para ejes en ro- 2
tación y los anillos de guía de la tapa del cilindro 9
(2). Coloque la tapa del vástago del cilindro (8).
Si se utiliza un espaciador (9) para limitar la ca-
rrera máxima del cilindro, coloque el casquillo en
el vástago del pistón antes de colocar el pistón.

Figura: Montaje del vástago del pistón y la tapa

Compruebe que la carrera mínima del cilindro


sea limitada. Si lo es, el espaciador deberá intro-
ducirse en el cilindro en primer lugar. Empuje el
conjunto del pistón hacia el interior del cilindro.
Recuerde que debe lubricar las juntas antes de
montarlas.

Figura: Cilindro con cubierta montada con rosca

Si la cubierta del cilindro se monta a rosca, añada Loctite 572 en las roscas de la cubierta del cilindro
y use una herramienta especial para el apriete. Use los mismos pares de apriete que con el vástago
del pistón.
