Start By:
a. separate track assemblies
At operating temperature, the hydraulic oil tank is hot and under

pressure. Hot oil can cause burns. To prevent possible personal injury,
release the pressure in the implement hydraulic circuits (boom, stick
and bucket) before any hydraulic lines or components are disconnected
or removed.
1. Release the pressure in the hydraulic system as follows:
a. Fully retract the rod in the stick cylinder.
b. Adjust the position of the bucket so it will be flat on the ground when the boom is lowered.
c. Lower the boom until the bucket is flat on the ground.
d. Shut off the engine, and put the hydraulic activation control lever in the "Lock" position.

3. Move the control levers for the boom, bucket, stick and swing through their full travel strokes.
This will relieve any pressure that may be present in the pilot system.
f. Slowly loosen the air breather cap on the hydraulic oil tank to release the pressure.
g. Tighten the air breather cap on the hydraulic oil tank.

of the hydraulic system.
5. Remove twenty bolts (3) that hold the final drive to the undercarriage frame assembly.
6. Install suitable size forcing screws in two threaded holes (4) in the undercarriage frame
assembly. Tighten the forcing screws evenly to loosen the final drive from the undercarriage
frame assembly. Remove the final drive. The weight of the final drive is 458 kg (1010 lb).

(2) and (7). If any of the seals are worn or damaged, use new parts for replacement.
9. Fasten a hoist to the final drive, and put it in position in the undercarriage frame assembly. Be
sure all mounting bolt holes are in alignment.
10. Put a thin coat of 9S3263 Thread Lock on threads of twenty bolts (3). Install twenty bolts (3)
that hold the final drive to the undercarriage frame assembly. Tighten the bolts evenly.
11. Connect pipes (5) and (6) to the travel brake valve. Connect hose assemblies (2) and (7) to the
travel motor.

After installation of the seals, put clean SAE 30 oil on the contact surfaces of the metal seals.
45. Install Duo-Cone seal (36) in the motor casing with tool (G).
NOTICE
Do not scratch or damage the Duo-Cone seals in the main housing or

the motor housing during assembly of these two components. After
installation of the main housing on the motor housing, there will be a
small gap between the components. The gap is caused by the Duo-Cone
seals and will be eliminated during installation of gear (34).
46. Fasten tool (E) and a hoist to main housing (31). Put the main housing and final drive sprocket
in position on the motor housing. Do not scratch or damage the Duo-Cone seals in either
component during installation.

housing. If two shims were required, put the thinner shim in contact with the gear (34). Be sure all
of the holes in the components are in alignment with each other.
48. Put a thin coat of 9S3263 Thread Lock on the threads of sixteen socket head bolts (33). Install
the socket head bolts to hold gear (34) in place. Tighten the bolts evenly, and in diagonally
opposite pairs, to a torque of 570 ± 79 N·m (420 ± 60 lb ft).
NOTICE
Identification grooves (N) in planetary gears (28) must be facing

toward gear (34), after installation in carrier assembly (24) and in the
main housing. See Illustration C28667P2.

carrier. Install spring pin (25) in the carrier and into the planetary shaft. Install the spring pin until
it is 2 to 3 mm (.078 to .118 in) below the outside surface of the carrier, and with the split in the
spring pin facing to either side in the carrier as shown in Illustration C28668P1. To prevent the
spring pin from falling out, Make a stake mark on each side of the spring pin hole in the carrier.
Each stake mark should be approximately 1.5 mm (0.06 in) from the spring pin hole.

(30). Put a bead of 1U8846 Gasket Maker on the mating surface of ring gear (30). Fasten lifting
straps and a hoist to ring gear (30). Put the ring gear in position on the main housing. Be sure the
alignment mark on the main housing and the ring gear line up with each other. It may be necessary
to use a soft faced hammer to seat the ring gear on the main housing.
NOTICE

grooves (M) are facing in the correct direction as noted during disassembly of the carrier
assembly. Using a screwdriver, install retaining ring (22) that holds the sun gear in the carrier. Put
clean SAE 30 oil on bearing (21). Install bearing (21) in planetary gear (20). Install a thrust
washer (19) on each side of the planetary gear. Install the thrust washers and the planetary gear in
carrier (15). Install planetary shaft (18) in carrier (15) and through planetary gear (20). Be sure the

with the split in the spring pin facing to either side of the carrier as shown in Illustration
C28668P1. To prevent the spring pin from falling out, make a stake mark on each side of the
spring pin hole in the carrier. Each stake mark should be approximately 1.5 to 2.5 mm (0.06 to
0.10 in) from the spring pin hole.

from the upper surface of sun gear (6) to the machined surface of ring gear (30). Record this
dimension. Call this dimension (P).
61. Use a 25.4 mm (1.00 in) thick straight edge and a depth micrometer to measure the distance
from the machined surface of cover (2) to the bottom of thrust plate (5) insertion hole. Record this
dimension. Call this dimension (Q).
