5.4.1General information on changing lubricants and operating fluids

Note

Thequantitiesgiveninthelubricationandoperatingmaterialchartandonthelubrication chart in the cab are only guide values.

After each oil change or refill, check the level in the relevant unit.

Note!

Adheringtoregulationsforlubrication,levelchecksandoperatingmaterialchanges guarantees a high degree of reliability and a long service life for the machine. Itisparticularlyimportanttoadheretotheoilchangeintervalsandusethespecified type of lubricant.

Observe the followingwhenusing andcheckinglubricants and operating fluids:

All lubricants and operating materials are not miscible or compatible.

When you change the lubricant or the operating material for a component or a system,makesurethattheoldandthenewlubricantsoroperatingmaterialsare miscible and compatible with each other.

If not, flush the component or the system first with new approved lubricant or new approved operating material.

Note!

Cleanliness is of the utmost importance when changing oil.

Clean all filler plugs, filler covers and drainplugs andtheirsurroundings before opening.

For preference, drain off oil when it is at operating temperature.

Ensurethat oldoils arecollectedanddisposed of in anenvironmentallyacceptable manner using the removable oil filter cartridges.

Danger!

When checking and changing lubrication and operating materials, ensure that the following precautions are adhered to:

Unless otherwise indicated, carry out all work on the machine on level, solid ground and with the electric motor switched off.

Whenever you reach into the electric motor compartment, always secure the cover and side doors against accidentally falling back or closing.

Do not smoke and avoid naked flame.

Turn the main battery switch to position 0 (off) and remove the ignition key.

2. Preheat hydraulic oil in the tank before starting the electric motor.

Biodegradable hydraulic oils

The use of biodegradable hydraulic oils must in any case be discussed with LIEBHER MINING EQUIPMENT COLMAR SAS.

Do not mix biodegradable hydraulic oils from different suppliers and never mix with mineral oils.

Donotusevegetableoilsastheydonotpossessthenecessarythermalstability. Depending on the temperature range, LIEBHERR recommends its poly-alpha-olefin (PAO, HEPR) oils, that are biodegradable according to CEC-L-103-12 (21 days, > 60%, primary decomposition):

Liebherr Hydraulic Plus or Liebherr Hydraulic Plus Arctic

If these oils are not available locally or if further specifications are required, use one of the following oils (before choosing an oil, contact our Customer Service):

Fully saturated synthetic ester-based oils, HEES

Depending on the temperature range, the viscosity grade of the HEES oil must conform to the above specifications for hydraulic oils.

Caution!

When mixing ester-basedbiodegradable hydraulic oils with mineral oils, there is a riskofagressivechemicalreactions,whichmightdamagethehydraulicequipment.

Hydraulic oil selection forcold climate conditions

When a LIEBHERR Mining excavator works under cold climates conditions, in any case, the appropriate arctic kit must be installed.

Oil must match the above prescription for engine oils or hydraulic oils. ature must be at least 5 K below the minimal air ambient temperature.

mperature > 160°C (recommended > 200°C).

The operating range of the arctic oil depends on the ambient air temperature and must be checked as follow: stays below +20°C, the oil viscosity at +50°C (oil temperature) must be over 16 cst.

In this case, the fans speed regulation "EXTRA-COLD" must be selected. stays below +30°C, the oil viscosity at +60°C (oil temperature) mustbe over 16 cst.In this case, thefans speed regulation "EXTRA-COLD" or "COLD" must be selected. stays below +40°C, the oil viscosity at +70°C (oil temperature) mustbe over 16 cst.In this case, thefans speed regulation "COLD" must be selected.

ContactLIEBHERRCustomerServiceforadditionalquestionsaboutoilselection.

Oil mixing

In principle, oil mixing between two different oil types must be avoided. Mixing two different oil types leads to an unknown lubricant with resultant unknown physical properties (viscosity, pourpoint, flashpoint, ageingbehaviour,lubricity,reactionwith additives...).

However, if mixing is absolutely necessary, respect the following maximum mixing proportions: or LIEBHERR oils with mineral oils, or hydraulic oils withmineraloils,or twodifferentmineral oilstogether,ortwodifferent hydraulicoils together: max. 10% max. 2% or mineral oils or LIEBHERR oils:

Hydraulic oil change intervals

Oil changes at pre-set intervals (mineral oils and PAO oils only)

This procedure is applicable only for mineral oils and PAO oils. If you use HEES biodegradable oil, refer to the next section.

5.6Condition monitoring with oil analysis

5.6.1General information

Oil analysis helps to monitor the main components condition by observing oil chemical and physical properties which can show either the oil contamination by foreign or wear particles, or the degradation of its properties.

Component oil analysis in accordance with the recommended procedures, intervals and specifications and the records of a component oil analysis are strongly recommended because this will support any warranty claim raised upon LIEBHERR.

Bycomparingtheoilpropertiesandcontaminantstoreferencelevelsandevenmore byobservingtheirtrendsoveraperiodofoperation,itispossibletooptimizethecomponent lifetime, possibly to prevent further damage (preventive exchange) and potentially to reduce rebuild and maintenance costs.

An oil analysis will give an indication of the component condition. But the measured valuesandtheirtrendoveraperiodofoperationneedalwaystobeinterpretedinrelation to the machine operating conditions and to events such as services, top-up, component change-out, etc.

Sampling instructions

General sampling instructions: Wear personal protective equipment. Get the sample:

Clean the area around the sampling point before you get the sample. Use an appropriate sampling kit.

Keepthesamplingmaterialawayfromhumidityanddust.Taketheseprecautions to choose a storage area.

Make sure the sampling material is perfectly clean (without dust, water, fuel...). If different sampling procedures are applicable for a component, always use the same sampling point and the same sampling procedure for this component to make sure that the analysis records stay relevant.

Fill the sampling bottle with oil to 80% level. Do not fill the sampling bottle to the top.

Close the sampling bottle tightly to ensure the integrity of the sample. Identify the sample with a label.

Carefullyfillinasampleinformationsheet.Inanycase,itismandatorytogivethis information with the sample:

Send the sample in oil-proof adapted material. Check fortherequiredsampledelivery timeandforsample export licence(ifthe laboratory is located out of the country, make sure that the export of the sample is authorized from your location to the laboratory).

Do not wait before sending the sample to the laboratory. Record and save sampling operations and results.

If you get the oil sample with a sampling pump:

Sampling pump

Use a sampling pump if you get the sample directly in the tank or on the component (machine stopped).

Always use a new sampling hose.

Cut the sampling hose to the correct length (e.g. dipstick length plus 20 mm).

First, let sufficient oil flow to flush the sampling hose.

If you get the oil sample in the tank, take the sample in the middle of the tank.

If you get the oil sample through a sampling valve:

Always use a new sampling hose.

First, let sufficient oil flow to flush the sampling hose. Gettheoilsampleinthemid-stream,i.e.firstletasmallamountofoilflowthrough the valve before sampling it.

Sampling material

You can order LIEBHERR approved sampling material to get the samples: Note!

These sampling kits are prepaid kits and include the cost of the analysis.

Before ordering these sampling kits, check for sample export licence: make sure that the export of the sample is authorized from your location to Europe.

Action level values

These tables give the action level values for the different monitored parameters for each component and the action to be taken if the action level value is reached. These values are applicable for mineral and synthetic oils.

Caution!

If three analyses one after the other give out-of-range results: Contact LIEBHERR Customer Service with the related analysis records.

Caution!

Comments and recommendations given by the laboratory on the analysis report must also be taken into account.
