BOOMM HOIST CYLINDERS - REPLACE (Contd)
At operating temperatures, hydraulic oil
is hot and under pressure. Hot oil can
cause Injuries. Allow hydraulic oil to
cool before disconnecting any hydraulic
lines.
If inner or intermediate sections of boom
have been removed, cap three hydraulic
lines (a) at underside of outer boom with
metal caps. If MLRS attachment has been
removed, cap three hydraulic hoses (b) at
front of boom with metal caps. Failure to
do so may result in personal injury
caused by hydraulic oil spraying out of
open hoses or lines when engine is
started.
CAUTION
Wipe area clean around all hydraulic
connections to be opened during removal.
Cap lines and plug openings after
removing lines. Contamination of
hydraulic system could result in
premature failure.
If more than one hydraulic line is to be
removed, identify lines to assure
proper installation. Use suitable
container to catch any hydraulic oil
that may drain from system.
Weight of boom assembly and MLRS
attachment is approximately 6300 lbs.
Weight of boom assembly alone is
approximately 4100 lbs. Weight of each
boom hoist cylinder is approximately 182
lbs.
