Observance of the instructions and tips will increase the service life and availability of the machine. You will also be able to carry out the transport work quicker and more safely.

Careful attention to the points in this chapter will help you to simplify your day-to-day work.

Storage corrosion protection

Components coated with temporary corrosion inhibitor are protected for approximately six months.

Before delivery, the hydraulic functions are tested and the hydraulic pressures are preset to OEM specifications.

Storage of the machine and spare parts no direct exposure to sunlight

dirt and moisture

Store the equipment indoors or cover with a tarpaulin to protect against direct exposure to sunlight.

Protect the equipment and all spare parts stored outdoors against moisture and dirt, e.g. using tarpaulins.

Protect the hydraulic plug connectors and the connectors of the electrical cables with the caps and plugs supplied.

short-term storage

long-term storage

During short-term storage (approximately 4 weeks) of equipment outdoors, but at temperatures above freezing, electrical components need not be removed. Such components must be particularly protected against excessive temperatures, dirt and moisture.

If the equipment is to be stored more than six months, the following lubrication and corrosion inhibiting procedures must be followed: ■

If the cylinder rods are exposed, the rods must be coated with a corrosion inhibiting fluid or grease.

■

Remove the breather on the hydraulic oil tank and plug. Completely fill the tank with oil.

■

Remove breathers from the gear cases and plug. Completely fill all gear cases.

■

Lubricate all grease points (see the Maintenance section in Chapter 5 of this manual).

■

Coat the conveyor chain and the breaker drive chain with a heavy coat of rust inhibitor fluid or grease.

BI001519

Storage and transport _____________________________________________

machine electrics

■

Coat exposed valve bank valve spools with rust inhibitor.

■

Completely drain the water system and refill with a 50/50 antifreeze/ water solution. Pump the antifreeze mix through the system until the antifreeze mix comes out of the water sprays. ENSURE THAT THE SYSTEM IS COMPLETELY PURGED AND THAT NO WATER OR AIR POCKETS EXIST.

■

The equipment must be stored in a well ventilated, dry room. Do not store outdoors.

Electronic components should be stored at temperatures between 0 °F and 176 °F (-18 °C and 80 °C)

random sample inspection

After a storage period of approximately two years, a random sample inspections must be performed to determine whether the measures taken and the method of storage has prevented damage. On request, the inspection can be carried out by Caterpillar.

natural aging

Even with proper storage, seals and hoses are subject to natural aging.

Do not use these parts if they have been stored for more than two years.

HFA fluids

Instructions on the storage of concentrates for hydraulic fluids can be found, if required, in Chapter 6 of this manual.

IMPORTANT! Take care to ensure that new maintenance supplies are stored separately from existing stock and that removal takes place on the “first in, first out” principle.

Long-term storage of spare components hydraulic components

miscellaneous components

If a component is to be stored more than six months, the hydraulic component must be completely filled with a corrosion inhibiting fluid. Fill the hollow areas of hydraulic components (e.g. the piston chambers) in horizontal position (ports facing upwards) until they start to overflow, then seal the ports with plastic or steel plugs.

Store the electrical equipment, electronic components, spare parts of rubber or plastic (such as seals and hoses) and hydraulic fluids only in closed rooms at temperatures of 60 °F (15 °C) to 77 °F (25 °C).

motors

Refer to the motor manufacturer’s storage procedure guide in your Cat® parts manual.

BI001519

____________________________________________ Storage and transport Transport Before transport temperatures below freezing

Before transporting the equipment at temperatures below freezing, all hydraulic components operated with emulsion (HFAE or HFAS) must be completely drained and then filled with a corrosion inhibitor/frostproofing fluid.

Transport of equipment at temperatures between -6° F (-21° C) and 40° F (-40° C) is only permissible when certain measures were taken to meet these conditions at the design and manufacture stages. Nevertheless, the individual parts and devices of this equipment must not be subjected to sudden impact loads at such low temperatures and may only be loaded statically or quasi-statically.

During transport of this equipment with floor-mounted vehicles at such low temperatures, measures must also be taken to ensure that the parts and devices are not subjected to sudden impact loads. At very low temperatures and on poor roads, the transport vehicle speed must therefore be limited to a maximum of 15 mph (25 kph) for truck transport.

electronic components

Electrical and electronic components must be removed for overseas transport or prolonged storage outdoors unless these components or the complete equipment is protected against harmful environmental influences by a suitable packaging.

The electrical cables remain in the equipment. They must be carefully protected against transport damage and soiling of the connections.

Load units, dimensions, and weights Observe the transport sheets for the machine and spare parts. They contain information on: ■

dimensions,

■

weights,

■

lifting points, etc. (See Fig. 6 for lifting point locations)

Additional information on the dimensions and weights can be found in chapter 6 in this operating manual.

WARNING! Use only load handling devices complying with the technical and legal regulations for the transport of loads. You could be seriously injured or even killed by falling loads. Use only suitable load handling devices.

_______________________________________________________ Operation Conveyor forward 1. Start the machine in either “AUTO” or “MAN” mode (see Starting procedures in this chapter).

2. Turn the “TRAM/OFF/CONV” selector switch located on the cover of the starter enclosure to the “CONV” position.

3. Push the “START BREAKER” button to start the breaker motor.

4. Turn the “FWD/OFF/REV” selector switch located on the cover of the starter enclosure to the “FWD” position.

It is important to note the following concerning the operation of the conveyor in the forward direction: –

The current of the breaker shaft motor is constantly monitored by the PLC. If the current remains below 100% of the full load current (FLA), the conveyor will continue to run at the set speed.

–

If the current increases above 125% FLA and stays at that level for three seconds, the PLC will assume there is a conveyor jam. The PLC will try to clear the jam by stopping the conveyor, running it in reverse for three seconds at 10% speed, and then running it forward for ten seconds at 25% speed.

–

If the current at this point is still above 125% FLA, the conveyor will repeat the above reverse/forward sequence for a second time.

–

If the current at this point is still above 125% FLA, the conveyor will repeat the above reverse/forward sequence for a third time.

–

If the current at this point is still above 125% FLA, the machine will shutdown and the display will read “BIG JAM”. The conveyor will need to be cleared before operation resumes.

–

If the current drops below 125% FLA at any time during the three reverse/forward sequences, the speed of the conveyor will ramp back up to the set speed.

5. Press the “START CONVEYOR” button on the front of the starter enclosure or the “START” button on either one of the remote pushbutton stations. A siren will sound warning that the conveyor is starting. The siren will sound any time the conveyor has timed out and is restarted.

Notes: 1. The PLC controls the speed of the conveyor based upon the amperage monitoring of the breaker motor. There are three preset forward conveyor speeds that are, by default, 20%, 50%, and 100%. These speeds are adjustable and can be reset to suit the operating conditions.

______________________________________________________________ A6474X435 REV 2 5.25

BI001519

Operation _______________________________________________________ 2. The conveyor operating time is controlled by a timer that is reset by pushing a start button on the starter enclosure or either remote pushbutton station or shining a light on the photo eye sensor mounted above the hopper. If the timer is not reset within the allotted time, the conveyor will stop.

3. There is a second adjustable timer that will shut down the electric motor if, within a preset amount of time, there is no conveyor activity. If, within this amount of time, the conveyor is idle and a conveyor start button is pushed, the PLC will allow the pump to ramp back up to full flow.

Conveyor reverse IMPORTANT! If it is necessary to reverse the conveyor, it should be jogged only. Running the conveyor in the reverse direction for even a short period of time with material in the hopper may cause the conveyor to jam. It will then be necessary to empty the machine hopper before the conveyor can be restarted.

Operating the conveyor in reverse 1. Turn the “FWD/OFF/REV” selector switch located on the cover of the starter enclosure to the “REV” position. The conveyor chain will now run in reverse at 25% full speed as long as the switch is in the “REV” position. Note: the conveyor should not be run in reverse for extended periods; only jog the conveyor when in reverse.

____________________________________________________ Maintenance hydraulic oil tank

Check the hydraulic oil level by looking at the sight glass located on the side of the oil tank (Fig. 41). The oil level should not be allowed to drop below the bottom of the sight glass. If the hydraulic oil level is low, add hydraulic oil (Spec. 100-1). To add oil via the power fill, reference the following procedure.

WARNING! The “TANK FILL/AUX VB” lever is the only lever on the valve bank that does not spring return to neutral when released. When not in use, the valve should be manually returned to the neutral position.

Failure to do so could result in unexpected machine movement if the secondary valve bank is energized and a lever on the secondary valve bank is inadvertently moved or machine overheating if the power fill pump is left energized. Unexpected machine movement could result in serious injury to personnel or damage equipment.

To operate the power fill: 1. Clean suction hose attached to the hydraulic power fill motor, located on top of the oil tank.

2. Remove the suction hose plug and submerge the suction hose in the new oil supply.

3. Turn the handle of the ball valve to the open position. The handle should now be inline with the hydraulic hose to which it is attached.

4. Position the “TANK FILL/AUX VB” lever in the “TANK FILL” position. Oil from the valve bank will now drive the power fill motor and a suction force will be created in the suction line. Oil from the new oil supply will be drawn through the power fill motor to the hydraulic oil tank.

5. Once the tank is filled to the desired level, pull the power fill lever on the valve bank to the neutral (center) position.

6. Turn the ball valve handle 90° to close the ball valve.

7. Remove the suction hose from the new oil supply.

8. Clean and install hose plug into suction hose. Store the suction hose on top of the oil tank.

CAUTION! After oil filling operation is complete, manually return the “POWER FILL” lever to the centered, neutral, position or overheating of the machine may occur.

Adjustment procedures ___________________________________________ Procedure to set Amplifier Card (EV1M2-12/24) 1. Start the pick breaker 2. Go to the valve bank and lift the valve bank handle retainer bar out of the way, so you can visibly see the movement of the conveyor handles (when the conveyor is running).

3. Place the machine in Conveyor, Forward and then Manual mode.

The conveyor will start.

4. On the display, go to the “Present Screen” (see fig. A1) Fig. A1: Preset Screen

5. Select “Low Speed” and change the percentage to “20%”. (Note: this percentage can be anything you want, as long as it is large enough to get the conveyor to start moving). The conveyor will be running full speed because Imin and Imax are at the same reference point (the valve handles will be visibly all the way forward). Next the Imin must be set.

6. Go to the amplifier cards on the back of the door, there will be two.

Find the Imin set screw (shown on Fig. A2 as item #9) Fig. A2: Imin & Imax set screw Imin Imax

________________________________________________________________ Cat® FB110 Feeder Breaker 5.84

BI001519

___________________________________________ Adjustment procedures

7. Turn Imin set screw counter clockwise. Visually verify (that the handles are moving) for which solenoid you are controlling, and get the handle to where it is 20% displaced from its rest position. This will have to be done to both amp cards.

8. Once you have both valve handles in the same position, you can go to the display and select “High Speed” on the “Preset Screen” (verify high percentage is set to 100%), your conveyor should be running at full speed (the valve handles should be fully displaced). If the handles are not fully displaced, you will need to adjust the Imax. Go to the amplifier cards, turn the Imax set screw (shown on Fig. A2 as item #10) clockwise, until you see the valve handles fully displaced (all the way forward).

9. Go back to the “Preset Screen” and select “Low Speed” and verify the valve handles went to your set low speed (handles displaced 20%) and reselect “High Speed” to verify high speed was set (handles fully displaced).

10. Go to the “Preset Screen” and select “Medium Speed” and enter your medium speed percentage. You do not need to adjust the amplifier card for the medium set point.

11. Once you have set the Imin and Imax set points you can change the percentages on the “Preset Screen” to what you want between your two set point percentages.

Adjustment procedures ___________________________________________ Instructions on the adjustment procedures The purpose of this section is to provide procedures for the major adjustments required on the feeder breaker.

It is essential that adjustments be made periodically to the conveyor chain and crawler tracks, as otherwise damage can be caused to other parts of the machine or to the assembly itself. Inspect the adjustments at regular intervals.

In addition to the mechanical adjustments, there are hydraulic settings and electrical timers that may require adjustment.

Conveyor chain adjustment The conveyor chain is a complete assembly and should be checked for correct tension at regular intervals.

NOTICE! The following adjustment procedure for conveyor chain take-up must be performed on both right and left hand sides of the conveyor.

To adjust tension on the conveyor chain with the take-up cylinders proceed as follows (Fig. 59): 1. Close the needle valve on manifold assembly securely.

2. Attach a grease gun to the grease fitting located on the manifold and apply grease until the required chain tension is obtained.

Sight across the bottom of the head shaft sprocket. The chain should sag approximately two inches below the bottom of the head shaft sprocket.

3. After tensioning the conveyor chain, locate the tailshaft take-up grease cylinders to the inside of the crawler tilt cylinders and remove the hardware that secures the shim pack onto the grease cylinder rod.

4. Insert shims over cylinder rod to fill the gap between the cylinder and the take-up push rod. Note the thickness and number of shims so that the other side is shimmed to the same length.

NOTICE! Make certain that the same amounts of shims are used on both sides of the conveyor to prevent chain from stretching unevenly.

Incorrect tension or adjustment can cause premature wear of sprockets and chain. Measure the exposed rod length on the grease take-up cylinders and make sure they are within 1/4” of each other.

5. Replace retainers.

6. Release pressure on the take-up cylinders by opening the top valve to vent grease.

________________________________________________________________ Cat® FB110 Feeder Breaker 5.86

BI001519

___________________________________________ Adjustment procedures WARNING! Due to grease cylinders being under high pressure, do not stand in direct line of grease fitting or needle valve when releasing pressure. You could be seriously injured from high pressure grease.

7. Store any unused shims inside the shim storage boxes.

Adjustment procedures ___________________________________________ Crawler track The crawler track is a complete assembly and should be checked for wear and correct tension at regular intervals.

To adjust crawler track tension with the take-up cylinders (Fig. 60): 1. Raise complete crawler assembly off ground and securely block under the machine. The machine must be securely supported off the ground with the crawler free to turn.

WARNING! You could be seriously injured or even killed by falling loads. Observe the safe working load of the lifting devices and keep a safe distance away from suspended loads.

2. Chain sag should be approximately two inches at the center of the crawler.

3. Remove the access cover located on the side of the crawler and locate the needle valve inside crawler frame. Turn valve knob counter clockwise (CCW) to open valve and pump grease into the fitting until the correct adjustment is achieved. Chain sag should be 2 at the center of the crawler.

4. Turn needle valve knob clockwise (CW) to close.

WARNING! If only one side of the machine is raised, be careful and only move the control lever for that particular side. Moving the wrong control lever could cause the machine to move and fall off its supports.

You could be seriously injured or even killed by falling loads.

5. Run crawler in forward direction for 30 seconds at slow speed.

6. Run crawler in reverse direction for 30 seconds at slow speed.

7. Shutdown machine.

8. If necessary, re-adjust chain sag.

9. Add or remove shims to maintain correct tension.

10. Release grease pressure in the cylinder by loosening the grease fitting and then turning the needle valve knob counter clockwise (CCW), allowing the shims to maintain the correct tension.

11. Install shim retainer plate.

WARNING! The grease cylinder is under high pressure. Do not visually inspect to see if grease is released. You could be seriously injured from high pressure grease.

12. Store and secure any unused shims on back of crawler cover plate.

Replacement of wear parts _________________________________________ Measure Chain for Elongation One of the most important areas in the evaluation of chain wear is the elongation of the chain. This is obtainable in the field and does not require chain disassembly or return to manufacturer for analysis.

To measure a chain for elongation: The selected strand must be under some load to pull out internal clearances and must be supported, if necessary, to insure the chain lies in a straight line.

The selected strand should include as many pitches as possible, with a minimum of four pitches. Always use an even number of pitches for straight sidebar chain.

Use any reasonably accurate measuring device (steel ruler, calipers, tape measure, etc.).

Determine the distance from a spot on the first pitch to the same spot on the last pitch. The edge of the pin head is usually a good spot to measure (see Fig. 73).

Fig. 73: Chain elongation measurement

________________________________________________________________ Cat® FB110 Feeder Breaker 5.112

BI001519

________________________________________ Replacement of wear parts The percent elongation is defined as: % elongation = measured strand length – (nominal pitch x number of pitches measured) x 100 (nominal pitch x number of pitches measured)

Example 1: 20 pitches of 3.500 inch pitch chain were measured as 71 13/16inches, therefore % elongation = 71 13/16 – (3.5 x 20) x 100 = 2.57% (3.5 x 20) Example 2: 20 pitches of 3.750 inch pitch chain were measured as 76 15/16 inches, therefore % elongation = 76 15/16 – (3.75 x 20) x 100 = 2.67% (3.75 x 20) Replacement chain should be order at approximately 2.6% elongation and replaced at approximately 3% elongation. It is highly recommended that the headshaft sprockets be changed at the same time as a new chain is installed to obtain maximum chain life.

Table 4 lists chain order and replacement values.

Troubleshooting _________________________________________________ Troubleshooting procedures Typical hydraulic problems The most common causes for improper hydraulic functions are: ■

contaminated or poor quality hydraulic oil

■

low or insufficient oil in the system

■

using the wrong type or viscosity grade of hydraulic oil

■

air in the hydraulic system

■

internal or external leakage of the hydraulic system

■

improper mechanical adjustments (such as reliefs)

■

mechanical or structural damage leading to component failure

■

components by-passing (internal leaking or inability to hold pressure) which leads to erosion of bushings, valve spools, or other critical components

The greatest aid to troubleshooting a hydraulic system is the confidence that comes with knowing the intended operation of the system, along with a fundamental understanding of basic hydraulic principles.

Contaminants in hydraulic systems The primary cause of hydraulic component failure is SYSTEM CONTAMINATION. Cleanliness must be a high priority when servicing the hydraulic system. Even very small particles can damage system components by scoring valves, clogging orifices, and wearing seals prematurely. It is not the intent of this manual to outline a contamination control program but some of the most effective steps that have been identified in successful programs are given below: 1. Ensure that bulk oils are at acceptable cleanliness levels.

–

implement ISO Cleanliness Code standards for bulk hydraulic oils

–

evaluate bulk oil shipments for cleanliness by conducting particle counts and maintain records

–

minimize drum usage by utilizing tote tanks and five gallon pails

–

utilize plastic versus steel storage tanks, if possible

–

install desiccant breathers on all bulk tanks

–

use sealed plastic containers for adding oil to small sumps

–

locate bulk tanks near equipment and pump directly to reservoirs

________________________________________________________________ Cat® FB110 Feeder Breaker 5.152

BI001519

_________________________________________________ Troubleshooting –

utilize filter carts to maintain oil cleanliness standards

–

properly train personnel on the importance of clean oil and best practices for storage and handling

–

monitor the program closely and look for continuous improvement

2. Eliminate contamination source through “clean” maintenance practices. This is best achieved by understanding the primary sources of contamination during maintenance and troubleshooting which are given below: –

always clean the area around the component that is to be removed and inspected

–

store components in a plastic bag after inspection and prior to replacement on machine

–

cap off all open hoses/fittings

–

never touch a filter with bare hands when installing it back onto the machine

–

pay close attention to the filler/breather cap and replace it when damaged or in the recommended time frame

Contact your Bucyrus representative for more information on implementing an effective program to ensure that your oil and maintenance practices are not contributing to your equipment failure.

Troubleshooting _________________________________________________ Open loop pump troubleshooting The pump used on this machine is a axial piston pump with load sense and pressure compensation control. Maximum displacement is 165 cc/ rev (10 cubic inches) and maximum service pressure is 400 bar (6,090 psi). There is a secondary gear pump mounted to the rear of the main pump that supplies cooling flow to the cases of the main pump and the conveyor drive motor. In an open loop configuration, there is no charge pump. The supply to the pump is a direct suction line to the hydraulic oil reservoir.

A pressure transducer is located at the pump inlet to monitor for a blocked suction line, however, it does not guard against aeration caused by a leaking suction line or low oil level in the reservoir. If either of these occur, the pump will make an erratic grinding noise and will run at elevated temperatures. The pump will fail quickly at these conditions and should be shutdown immediately. Investigate oil level and suction hose integrity and identify and correct the issue before operating the pump.

At startup, the pump will be on full stroke to prime itself. Once the pump is at full speed, its control will de-stroke the displacement to a minimum and reduce system pressure to approximately 30 bar (435 psi). This mode is referred to as “standby” or “margin” and is typical of load sense controlled pumps. In standby, the system pressure gauge will read 30 bar (435 psi) and the load sense pressure gauge will read 0 bar. The actual output of the pump is at low pressure and only at a flow rate required to make up for internal system leakage. In this mode, the pump is waiting for a signal to provide higher pressure and flow to meet a specific task. That signal is in the load sense line which connects the pump control to the main valve bank. When valves are shifted to run a function of the machine. For example, the conveyor control valves will connect the load pressure of the conveyor motor circuit to the load sense line. The pump will quickly respond by increasing its displacement to create the pressure to meet that conveyor load.

At this point, the load sense gauge will read the load of the conveyor function and the system pressure gauge will reflect that load pressure plus the margin pressure. If the conveyor requires 250 bar (3,625 psi) to operate, the system pressure will be 280 bar (250 bar +30 bar) (4,061 psi).

The adjustment of the load sense margin pressure is located on the control block at the top rear of the pump. It is the adjusting screw located at the front of the block.

The pump control includes a second stage for pressure compensation.

This feature limits the maximum output pressure of the pump. When the pressure compensation setting is reached, the pump will quickly destroke to a minimum output. This condition is referred to as “dead head” or “stall” . The pump will continue to hold this pressure until the function is stopped. In the conveyor function, stall may arise from an obstruction in the breaker and this condition is monitored by a pressure transducer. The pump itself can operate in this mode indefinitely due to the operation of the pressure compensator.

________________________________________________________________ Cat® FB110 Feeder Breaker 5.154

BI001519

_________________________________________________ Troubleshooting The pump itself can operate in this mode indefinitely due to the operation of the pressure compensator. There is no excess hydraulic heat generated because relief valves are not opening to control the pressure limitation. If there is significant heating during a stall or high pressure operation, check the setting of the system relief located in the inlet of the main valve bank. This relief valve is preset to 370 bar (5,365 psi). To verify its setting, the pump compensator must be raised to 380 bar (5,510 psi). Once the relief is correctly adjusted, reduce the pump compensator to 350 bar (5,075 psi). If the relief is set lower than the pressure compensator, the relief valve will open, causing system heating.

The adjustment of the pressure compensator setting is located on the control block at the top rear of the pump. It is the adjusting screw located at the rear of the block. The pressure compensator must be adjusted while the pump is “loaded”. This is best accomplished with the conveyor function engaged.

The main pump is an efficient device: displacement efficiency when new is approximately 98%. The pump will produce nominal 74.75 gpm at 1,750 rpm. This means internal leakage is only 1.5 - 2.0 gpm. As a pump ages and wears, the efficiency will decrease, resulting in increased flow from the case drain port. Because the flow from the main pump case is a combination of internal leakage and the cooling flow, the case drain flow from a new pump will average 6 gpm. If case drain leakage exceeds 10 gpm, the main pump should be changed out.

An acceptable method of measuring case drain leakage is to use a five gallon bucket and a stop watch. If the five gallon bucket is filled in 30 seconds, the pump needs changed.

When removing a used pump, use the plugs from the replacement pump and duct tape to seal off all ports on the used pump.

If a pump is replaced, it is critical that the pump case be filled before start up. It is often difficult to do this well underground, so start with filling and plugging the pump before taking underground. Pumps stored on site should be filled with oil. The pump has two case drain ports the highest on should be used for filling.

Upon installation, top up oil in pump case at the highest case drain port.

Jog the pump motor at least five time before starting up. If the pump is properly filled and priming, it will run and sound smoothly on startup.

_______________________________________________ Permissible media Permissible media Lubrication fluids and greases NOTICE! Use only lubrication fluids and greases approved by Caterpillar.

These fluids and greases have been tested at Caterpillar and guarantee reliable operation of the mechanical and hydraulic functions of the machine.

IMPORTANT! The lubrication fluids and greases listed in the same table can be mixed. Other products may only be used if the supplier can guarantee that they are equivalent.

Differently composed fluids and greases must not be mixed as this may change the consistency, i.e. the mixture can become thinner so that the lubrication effect is not sufficient. It may also be dangerous to use lubricating greases and fluids having the same specification base but different origins.

In case of doubt, the manufacturer of the lubrication to be used should be contacted as to the compatibility of the lubrication in question.

IMPORTANT! Caterpillar expressly points out that the approval of the listed products relates only to the pure technical use in our mechanical and hydraulic systems. The responsibility for the constituents used in the hydraulic concentrates lies solely with the respective manufacturer.

IMPORTANT! Be sure to use the manufacturer’s instructions for use.

NOTICE! When performing maintenance on the machine, all used oil and lubricants should be disposed of per your local EPA standards.
