REPAIR To replace a roller, frame section or rail section (figure 3), proceed as follows: 1. Move the machine to a safe area with adequate space to perform the repair. 2. Swing the machine so the damaged part is located under roller circle not having an upper rail. Shut down the machine and tag the controls.
NOTE: If an upper rail section is to be replaced, the machine will have to be jacked up slightly to remove it. Contact the BucyrusErie Service Department for the correct procedure.
