Section 1. Installation Fixed Upper Stair PS-24 774

NOTE
Follow all on-site/Mine lifting and safety procedures when installing
PSFS to Excavator.

PROCEDURE.

1. With the fixed stair mounted to the excavator per Drg 24 773,check that the landing
at the top of the stair is located beside the lower level of the OEM cagin landing,
per Details V and W. If it is not, adjust the position of the whole fixed stairs by
moving it relative to the bottom mountings, per Detail X.

2. IF, when the position of the fixed stair is finally resolved per '1' above, the 100 x 10
flatbar slider attached under the channel frame of the landing does not continue
over the rubber cushions of the mountings, extend the slider per View S and weld
an additional Stiffener between inside the channels using the material provided.

3. Adjust the lateral position of the fixed stair so it is 25 - 40mm away from the lower
level cabin landing, per Detail W. Adjust the lateral position by loosening
clamping bolts and sliding the top and bottom mountings sideways on the SHS
beams.

4. Cut off the frame channels of the top stair landing where they extend past the top
mountings and relocate the Top End Panel so it is approximately aligned with the
centre line of the Tee Beam,per View W.

5. Re-install the OEM emergency escape ladder. Inspect the space around the
ladder - if, per View U, it is found that the outer clamp plate on the horizontal run
of the Tee Beam might snare the clothing of a person using the ladder, weld the
brackets to the beam per Detail T and permanently remove the outer clamp plates.

NOTE
Unless directed otherwise, welding must comply with AS1554 Cat SP.

See Drawing P30-384 (Page 11)

1. Per Drawing P30 376 and View 1 (Pg7),assemble the Outer Isolator components
on the Mounting Frame. Adjust the clearance or compression of the isolator
elements - the vertical isolator pads should be slightly compressed when initially
installed so assemble with spacer pads in the bottom of the isolator to achieve the
appropriate compression. Horizontally (in/out and forward/backward), initial
assembly can vary from 2mm compression to 2mm clearance. Position the
spacers in consistent positions in all three assemblies.

2. Per Views 2-1 & 2-2, tie the partly assembled isolator boxed in place on the

PROCEDURE
See Drawing P30 379

1. Per View 1, fit the Top Pad Stops to the closer plate above the beam of the
mounting frame, at each isolator box. If it is necessary to lower the mounting beam
to make space for hands and/or tools, keep the arms of the mounting beam
engaged in the inner isolator shells and lower the beam.
PLACE BLOCKS OF WOOD OR SIMILAR SPACERS BETWEEN THE MOUNTING BEAM
AND THE CLOSER PLATE OR THE WALKWAY STRUCTURE SO AS TO ELIMINATE
THE DANGER OF CRUSHING A HAND IF THE BEAM MOVES. See View 2.

2. Per Views 1 & 3, fit the the Mounting Isolator Floor Plates to the inner Isolator Box
Sides. Put the Mounting Isolator Elements between the Mounting Frame beam and
the Floor Plates, with 5mm Packing Sheets between the isolator elements per
View 4.

3. Per View 3, fit the Mounting Isolator Bottom Pad Stops to the Floor plates.

4. Per View 3, fit the outer Isolator Box Side with the Side Pad Support fitted and
isolator elements in place. Use thread locking compound on the bolts and nuts
attaching the Side Pad Suports.

5. Per View 3, fit the Mounting Isolator End Stops and Elements.

6. Remove the Inner Isolator Shells and fit the isolator elements, per View 5.

NOTES.
1. USE SAFE WORKING PRACTICES AT ALL TIMES.

2. The isolators must be correctly adjusted as regards clearance or compression on


the isolator pads. Insert/remove spacers in order to achieve the required results.
- the top and bottom isolators must hold the beam of the mounting frame firm
(vertically). Add/remove any spacers from UNDER the beam,- horizontally, a range
from a small clearance over the isolator pads (up to 2mm) through to a small
compression (up to 2mm) is acceptable.
Where required these spacers can be fitted only on one side of the isolator
assembly, that is, not shared in thickness front and back. Ensure that the spacers
are positioned in such a way that they cannot work free past the relevant
keeper/s.
3. Mounting Isolator End Stop P30 352 00S' with a clearance hole cut in it is to be
fitted in the rearmost Outer Isolator Mounting, see View 6.

Section 2 Operating Procedure

To Lower Stairway (from the machine)


Position excavator in a level, safe area, away from the work face, whenever possible.
Position the excavator body square to the tracks, lower bucket, apply park brake and
lower engine speed to idle.
Descend stairway behind cabin to lower walkway.
Check that the area below and behind the Folding Retractable Stairway (FRS) is clear of
people and obstacles, and lower stairway by operating the two position electrical switch
adjacent to the stairway, to the down position by pressing the switch down.
Hold the switch in the down position until stairway is fully extended and lowered.
If the excavator is parked on uneven ground, the bottom of the stairway may touch the
ground before the FRS is in the fully extended and lowered position.
Should this occur, descend the stairway with caution.
Bottom of stairway is designed to rest on the ground in the fully lowered and extended
position, but can be used in the fully lowered position without resting on the ground.

To Raise Stairway
Ascend the stairway onto the lower walkway of the excavator.
Ensure the area around the stairway is clear of people and standing to the side, clear of
the area the handrails and stairway raises into, operate the electrical switch to the raise
position (up).
Hold the switch in the up position until the stairway is in the fully raised position.
The stairway is now raised and stored.

Note:
The stairway is interlocked with the swing interlock of the excavator, and the machine will
not swing with the stairway out of the fully raised position.
Operation of the FRS mechanically extends the lower stair section as the stairway is
lowered by means of the link rods to the upper platform of the FRS.
There is no method of individual control of the upper and lower sections.

OPERATING NOTES

NOTE: FLOW CONTROL VALVE ADJUSTMENT:


The valve should be positioned to restrict the flow and speed of the Power Step when
lowering. Adjust the knob on top of the valve by turning left or right (clockwise) when the
step is being lowered, until it is lowering at a safe and reasonable speed.

When it is adjusted, lock the adjusting knob by tightening the grub screw located on the
side of the knob.

NOTE: MAGNETIC 'GO' SWITCH ADJUSTMENT:


The switch target trigger area is located on the opposite side and end from the cable entry
point on the switch. Once it is mounted to the switch bracket, adjust the switch in or out
from the stair steel trigger point, to be within 3mm - 10mm from touching each other when
the stair is in the desired rest position.
[DO NOT EXCEED 10MM DISTANCE BETWEEN THE SWITCH AND STRIKER PLATE].
Test by raising and lowering the Power Step a couple of times and adjust again if
necessary.
