Inspection And Maintenance

WARNING
Failure to properly inspect and maintain the seat belt
can cause lack of operator restraint resulting in
serious injury or death.
W-2466-0703

Check the seat belt daily for correct function.

Inspect the seat belt system thoroughly yearly or more

often if the machine is exposed to severe environmental
conditions or applications.

The seat belt system should be repaired or replaced if it

shows cuts, fraying, extreme or unusual wear, significant
discolorations due to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun,
dusty/dirty conditions, abrasion to the seat belt webbing,
or damage to the buckle, latch plate, retractor (if
equipped), or hardware.

B-22283

The items below are referenced in [Figure 10-150-1].

1. Check the seat belt webbing. If the system is

equipped with a retractor, pull the webbing completely
out and inspect the full length of the webbing. look for
cuts, wear, fraying, dirt and stiffness.

2. Check the buckle and latch for proper function. Make

sure latch plate is not excessively worn, deformed or
buckle is not damaged.

3. Check the retractor web storage device (if equipped)

by extending the seat belt webbing to determine if it
extends and retracts the webbing correctly.

4. Check webbing in areas exposed to ultraviolet (UV)

rays from the sun or extreme dust or dirt. If the original
color of the webbing in these areas is extremely faded
and / or the webbing is packed with dirt, the webbing
strength may have weakened.

See your Bobcat dealer for approved seat belt system

replacement parts for your machine.

Description The following tools will be needed to do the procedure:

The manifold contains a pressure reducing valve, a MEL1355 - Hydraulic Test Kit
check valve, an accumulator, and four solenoid valve
assemblies (cartridge valves with coils). The pressure Stop the engine.
reducing valve provides 435 PSI (30 Bar) of pilot
pressure. The pilot pressure is solenoid valve controlled Figure 20-60-1
for the joysticks, the auxiliary pilot circuits, and the travel
motor two speed circuit. The accumulator and the check
valve work together to provide reserve hydraulic pilot
pressure for the joysticks and the auxiliary pilot circuit
1
when the engine is not running.

Pilot supply pressure for the joysticks is variable. It is

controlled by the Excavator control module and is based
on engine RPM. At low engine speeds, the variable pilot
supply limits the amount of flow for the pilot controlled
functions (boom, arm, bucket, house swing, and travel).
At low speeds, these functions move slower and this
helps to reduce engine stalling. At higher engine speeds
(above 1900 RPM) the joysticks get full pilot pressure
435 PSI (30 Bar). P16613

Track Lug Height

Rubber Track

The lug height of a new rubber track is 0.984 inch (25,0

mm).

Figure 30-20-1

Straight Edge

B-14489

To find the percentage of wear on an Excavator track,

measure the height of the lug by placing a straight edge
across the top of three lugs and measure the distance
from the base of the track to the bottom of the straight
edge [Figure 30-20-1].

Divide this measurement by the new track height and

multiply by 100. This will give the percentage of track lug
left.

Example: lug height 0.787 inch (20,0 mm)

0.787
0.984 x 100 = 80

80% of the track lug is remaining with 20% wear on the

track lugs.

Cuts On The Edges Of Track Roller Side (Cont’d)

In case of damage by interference with the machine

Figure 30-40-25

Cut

Tear

PI-13057

If a machine continues operating with rubber tracks being

detracted, the rubber tracks may get caught up in the
machine frame or undercarriage parts resulting in
damage. Furthermore, when a machine travels along
side slopes, the rubber tracks are deformed so much that
they come into contact with the machine frame and
undercarriage parts, which causes cutting, gouging and
rubbing of rubber tracks in the end [Figure 30-40-25].

Prevention:

When traveling, a machine operator should be careful not

to drive over any projections on the ground. He should
also prevent rubber tracks from coming into contact with
concrete walls, ditches and ridges. If rubber tracks are
detracked, the machine should be stopped immediately
for retracking.

The latch may wear and become shorter, increasing latch

engagement. Latch wear is dependent on the type of
attachment used and the application. If wear becomes
excessive, the latch will rest on the stop. The attachment
will remain securely installed on the machine in this
position, however the attachment can exhibit rattling
noise during operation because the attachment interface
is shifting slightly within the X-Change. Visual inspection
can detect if the latch is resting on the stop without
measurement. Latch replacement is recommended when
wear becomes this excessive. [Figure 40-200-57].

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM FLOW

Principals

In an air conditioning system the refrigerant is circulated under pressure through five major components in a closed circuit.
At these five points in the system the refrigerant goes through pressure and temperature changes.

The compressor (Item 1) Page 70-40-3 takes in heated, low pressure refrigerant gas through the suction valve (low
pressure side) and as the name indicates, pressurizes the heated refrigerant and forces it through the discharge valve
(high pressure side) on the condenser (Item 2) Page 70-40-3.

Ambient air passing through the condenser removes the heat from refrigerant resulting in physical state change in the
refrigerant from a gas to a liquid.

The liquid refrigerant moves on to the receiver/drier (Item 3) Page 70-40-3 where impurities such as moisture and dirt are
filtered out. The receiver/drier also serves as the storage tank for the liquid refrigerant. The liquid refrigerant (still under
high pressure) flows to the expansion valve (Item 4) Page 70-40-3.

The expansion valve meters the amount of refrigerant into the evaporator coil (Item 5) Page 70-40-3. As the refrigerant
passes through the expansion valve, it again changes its physical state. It becomes a low temperature, low-pressure liquid
and saturated vapor. The low pressure liquid immediately starts to boil and vaporize as it enters the evaporator. The hot
humid air of the machine's cab is drawn through or blown into the evaporator by the evaporator fan (Item 6) Page 70-40-
3. Since the refrigerant is colder than the air, it absorbs the heat from the air and produces cooled air, which is pushed into
the cab by the fan. The moisture in the air condenses on the evaporator coil and drips into the drain pan, which directs the
water out of the cab.

The refrigerant cycle is completed when the heated low pressure gas is again drawn into the compressor.
