TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS
The majority of accidents and injuries which occur in industry, at home or on the road, are caused by the failure
of some individual to follow simple and fundamental safety rules or precautions. For this reason MOST ACCI-
DENTS CAN BE PREVENTED by recognizing the real cause and taking the necessary precautions, before the
accident occurs.
Regardless of the care used in design and construction of any type of equipment, there may be conditions that
cannot be completely safeguarded against, without interfering with reasonable accessibility and efficient oper-
ation.
A careful operator and / or technician is the best insurance against accidents. The complete observance of one
simple rule would prevent many thousands of serious injuries each year.
This rule is: never attempt to clean, lubricate or adjust a machine while it is in motion.

SWARNING
Before carrying out any maintenance operation, adjustment and or repair on machines equipped with attach-
ments, controlled hydraulically or mechanically, make sure that the attachment is lowered and safely set on the
ground. If it is necessary to have the equipment partially or fully raised to gain access to certain items, be sure
the equipment is suitably supported by means other than the hydraulic lift cylinders, cable and /or mechanical

2 SECTION 01 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. INTRODUCTION
The wheeled excavators WE150 Compact - WE170
Compact - WE170C Railroad are operation hydrau-
lic machines.
They essentially consist in a wheeled undercarriage
on which a slewing bearing is mounted, which is
coupled to the upper frame.
The upper frame supports the front attachment, the
engine, the hydraulic components, the cab, the fuel
tank and the counterweight.
When the operator activates the controls (hydraulic
control levers and pedals), the hydraulic pumps
rotated by the engine suck oil from the tank and con-
vey it to the control valve; the control valve, in turn, 1
sends it to the relevant users.
A cooling system keeps the hydraulic fluid at a nor-
mal operating temperature.

1.1 DESIGNATED USE

SECTION 01 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 3

2. GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS


Carefully read this Manual before proceeding with
maintenance, repairs, refuelling or other machine
operations.
Repairs have to be carried out only by authorized
and instructed staff; specific precautions have to be
taken when grinding, welding or when using mallets
or heavy hammers.
Not authorized persons are not allowed to repair or
carry out maintenance on this machine. Do not carry
out any work on the equipment without prior authori-
zation.
Ask your employer about the safety instructions in
force and safety equipment.
Nobody is allowed to seat on the operator’s place
during machine maintenance unless he is a qualified
operator helping with the maintenance work.
If it is necessary to move the equipment to carry out
repairs or maintenance, do not lift or lower the equip-
ment from any other position than the operator’s
seat.
Never carry out any operation on the machine when
the engine is running, except when specifically indi-
cated.
Stop the engine and ensure that all pressure is re-
lieved from hydraulic circuits before removing caps,
covers, valves, etc.
All repair and maintenance operations should be
carried out with the greatest care and attention.
Service stairs and platforms used in a workshop or
in the field should be built in compliance with the
safety rules in force.
Any functional disorders, especially those affecting
the safety of the machine, should therefore be recti-
fied immediately.
4 SECTION 01 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

2.1 EMERGENCY

Be prepared for emergencies. Always keep at dis-


posal on the machine a first aid kit and a fire extin-
guisher. Make sure that the fire extinguisher is
serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s in-
structions.

2.2 EQUIPMENT

Wear close fitting clothing and safety equipment ap-


propriate for the job:
Z safety helmet;
Z safety shoes;
Z heavy gloves;
Z reflective clothing;
Z wet weather clothing.
If environment condition require it following personal
safety equipment should be at hand:
Z respirators (or dustproof masks);
Z ear plugs or acoustic ears protections;
Z goggles with lateral shield or masks for eyes pro-
tection.
Do not wear rings, wristwatches, jewels, unbuttoned
or flapping clothing such as ties, torn clothes,
scarves, open jackets or shirts with open zips which
could get caught into moving parts.
SECTION 01 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 5

2.3 ENGINE - RADIATOR

Never leave the engine run in closed spaces without


ventilation and not able to evacuate toxic exhaust
gases. Keep the exhaust manifold and tube free
from combustion materials.
Do not refuel with the engine running, especially if
hot, as this increases fire hazard in case of fuel spill-
age.
Never attempt to check or adjust the fan belts when
the engine is running.
Never lubricate the machine with the engine run-
ning.
Pay attention to rotary pieces and do not allow to an-
yone to approach to avoid becoming entangled.
If hands, clothes or tools get caught in the fan blades
or in the transmission belt, this can cause amputa-
tions, violent tears and generate condition of serious
danger; for this reason avoid touching or to come
close to all rotary or moving parts.
A violent jet of the coolant from the radiator can
cause damages and scalds.
If you are to check the coolant level, you have to shut
off the engine previously and to let cool down the ra-
diator and its pipes. Slowly unscrew the cap to re-
lease the inside pressure.
If necessary, remove the cap with hot engine, wear
safety clothes and equipment, then loosen the cap
slowly to relieve the pressure gradually.
When checking the fuel, oil and coolant levels, use
exclusively explosion proof classified lamps. If this
kind of lamps are not used fires or explosions may
occur.
6 SECTION 01 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

2.4 HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS

Splashes of fluids under pressure can penetrate the


skin causing serious injuries.
Avoid this hazard by relieving pressure before dis-
connecting hydraulic or other lines.
Relieve the residual pressure by moving the hydrau-
lic control levers several times.
Tighten all connections before applying pressure.
To protect the eyes wear a facial shield or safety
goggles.
Protect your hands and body from possible splashes
of fluids under pressure.
Swallowing hydraulic oil is a severe health hazard.
When hydraulic oil has been swallowed, avoid vom-
iting, but consult a doctor or go to a hospital.
If an accident occurs, see a doctor familiar with this
type of injury immediately.
Any fluid penetrating the skin must be removed with-
in few hours to avoid serious infections.
Flammable splashes may originate because of the
heat near pipes with fluids under pressure, with the
result of serious scalds for the persons hit. Do not
weld or use torches near pipes containing fluids or
other flammable materials.
Pipes under pressure can accidentally be pierced
when the heat expands beyond the area immediate-
ly heated.
Arrange for fire resistant temporary shields to pro-
tect hoses or other components during welding.
Have any visible leakage repaired immediately.
Escaping oil pollutes the environment. Soak up any
oil that has escaped with a proper binding agent.
Sweep up binding agent and dispose of it separately
from other waste.
Never search for leakages with the fingers, but use a
piece of cardboard and always wear goggles.
Never repair damaged piping; always replace it. Re-
place hydraulic hoses immediately on detecting any
damage or moist areas.
Always store hydraulic oil in the original containers.
SECTION 01 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 7

HOSES AND TUBES


Always replace hoses and tubes if the cone end or
the end connections on the hose are damaged.
When installing a new hose, loosely connect each
end and make sure the hose takes up the correct po-
sition before tightening the connections. Clamps
should be tightened sufficiently to hold the hose with-
out crushing and to prevent chafing.
After hose replacement to a moving component,
check that the hose does not foul by moving the
component through the complete range of travel.
Be sure any hose which has been installed is not
kinked or twisted.
Hose connections which are damaged, dented,
crushed or leaking, restrict oil flow and the productiv-
ity of the components being served. Connectors
which show signs of movement from the original po-
sition have failed and will ultimately separate com-
pletely.
A hose with a frayed outer sheath will allow the water
penetration. Concealed corrosion of the wire rein-
forcement will subsequently occur along the hose
length with resultant hose failure.
Ballooning of the hose indicates an internal leakage
due to structural failure. This condition rapidly deteri-
orates and total hose failure soon occurs.
Kinked, crushed, stretched or deformed hoses gen-
erally suffer internal structural damage which can re-
sult in oil restriction, a reduction in the speed of
operation and ultimate hose failure.
Free-moving, unsupported hoses must never be al-
lowed to touch each other or related working surfac-
es. This causes chafing which reduces hose life.
O-RINGS
Replace O-rings, seal rings and gaskets whenever
they are disassembled.
Never mix new and old seals or O-rings, regardless
of condition. Always lubricate new seal rings and O-
rings with hydraulic oil before installation to relevant
seats.
This will prevent the O-rings from rolling over and
twisting during mounting which will jeopardize seal-
ing.
8 SECTION 01 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

2.5 BATTERY

Batteries give off explosive gases.


Never handle naked flames and unshielded light
sources near batteries, never smoke.
To prevent any risk of explosion, observe the follow-
ing instructions:
Z when disconnecting the battery cables, always dis-
connect the negative (-) cable first;
Z to reconnect the battery cables, always connect the
negative (-) cable last;
Z never short-circuit the battery terminals with metal
objects;
Z do not weld, grind or smoke near a battery.
Battery electrolyte causes severe burns. The bat-
tery contains sulphuric acid. Avoid any contact with
the skin, eyes or clothing.
Antidote:
Z EXTERNAL: rinse well with water, removing any
soiled clothing.
Z INTERNAL: avoid vomiting. Drink water to rinse
your mouth. Consult a doctor.
Z EYES: rinse abundantly with water for 15 minutes
and consult a doctor.
Z When the electrolyte of a battery is frozen, it can
explode if you attempt to charge the battery or if
you try to start the engine using a booster battery.
Always keep the battery charged to prevent the
electrolyte freezing.
Provide good ventilation when changing a battery or
using a battery in an enclosed space. Always protect
your eyes when working near a battery.
Never set tools down on the battery. They may in-
duce a short circuit, causing irreparable damage to
the battery and injuring persons.
Never wear metal necklaces, bracelets or watch-
straps when working on the battery. The metal parts
may induce a short circuit resulting in burns.
Dispose of used batteries separately from other
waste in the interests of environmental protection.
SECTION 01 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 9

2.6 FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS

When handling flammable liquids:


Z do not smoke;
Z keep away from unshielded light sources and na-
ked flames.
Fuels often have a low flash point and are readily ig-
nited.
Never attempt to extinguish burning liquids with wa-
ter. Use:
Z dry powder;
Z with carbon dioxide;
Z with foam.
Water used for extinguishing purposes would vapor-
ize instantaneously on contact with burning sub-
stances and spread burning oil, for example, over a
wide area. Water generates short circuits in the elec-
trical system, possibly producing new hazards.
Stay away from open flames during refilling of hy-
draulic oil or fuel.
Fuel or oil splashes can cause slipping and therefore
accidents; clean immediately and accurately the ar-
eas eventually smeared.
Always tighten the safety plugs of fuel tank and hy-
draulic oil tank firmly.
Never use fuel to clean the machine parts eventually
smeared with oil or dust.
Use a non-inflammable product for cleaning parts.
Always perform fuel or oil refilling in well aired and
ventilated areas.
During refuelling hold the pistol firmly and keep it al-
ways in contact with the filler neck until the end of the
refuelling, to avoid sparkles due to static electricity.
Do not overfill the tank but leave a space for fuel ex-
pansion.
Never refuel when the engine is running.
Take all the necessary safety measures when weld-
ing, grinding or when working near a naked flame.
10 SECTION 01 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

2.7 TYRES

Before inflating the tyres, always check the condition


of rims and the outer condition of tyres to find out the
presence of dents, cuts, tears of reinforcement plies
or other faults. Before inflating a tyre, make sure that
there are no nearby persons, then position yourself
at tread side.
Make sure that the inflating pressure of tyres is the
same prescribed by manufacturer and that the pres-
sure of the right tyre corresponds to the pressure of
the left tyre.
Never use reconditioned rims because possible
welds, heat treatments or brazings not performed
correctly can weaken the wheels and cause follow-
ing damages or failures. Deflate the tyres before
their disassembly.
Before taking out possible jammed objects from the
rims, it is necessary to deflate the tyres. Inflate tyres
by means of a pistol complete with extension and
pressure switch of control.

2.8 CLEANING

Clean the exterior of all components before carrying


out any form of repair. Dirt and dust can reduce the
efficient working life of a component and lead to
costly replacement.
Solvents should be checked that they are suitable
for the cleaning of components and also that they do
not risk the personal safety of the user.
Dirt from oil or grease and scattered tools or faulty
pieces are dangerous for persons, because they can
generate slipping or falls.
For the machine cleaning, use a jet of warm water or
steam under pressure and commercial detergents.
Never use fuel, petroleum or solvents, because the
first ones leave an oily layer that favours the sticking
of dust, while solvents (even if weak) damage the
paint and favour the formation of rust.
Never use water jets or steam on sensors, connec-
tors or other electric components.
Prevent that the water jet penetrates inside the cab.
SECTION 01 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 11

2.9 WASTE DISPOSAL

Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the envi-


ronment.
Each country has its own Regulations on this sub-
ject. It is therefore advisable to prepare suitable con-
tainers to collect and store momentarily all solid and
fluid materials that must not be scattered in the envi-
ronment to avoid pollution.
At preset intervals these products will be delivered to
disposal stations legally recognized and present in
this Country.
Hereunder are listed some products of the machine
requiring disposal:
Z lubricating oil;
Z brake system oil;
Z coolant mixture, condensation rests and pure anti-
freeze;
Z fuel;
Z filter elements, oil and fuel filters;
Z filter elements, air filters;
Z battery.
Also polluting rags, paper, sawdust and gloves must
be disposed in compliance with the same proce-
dures.
Do not use food or beverage containers that may
mislead someone into drinking from them. Do not
pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into
any water source. Air conditioning refrigerants es-
caping into the air can damage the Earth’s atmos-
phere. Government regulations may require a
certified air conditioning service centre to recover
and recycle used air conditioning refrigerants. Ob-
tain information on the proper way to recycle or dis-
pose of waste from your local environmental or
recycling centre, or from your Dealer.

machine must be secured as follows:
Park the machine on a level and firm surface.
Lower the working attachment to the ground.
Lower the blade and the stabilizers to the ground.
Lock the upper structure.
Engage the parking brake.
Let the engine run at low idle for approximately 5
minutes.
Stop the engine.
Set the starter switch key to position “0” and pull it
out.
Move both hydraulic control levers in all directions,
to release possible residual pressure inside the hy-
draulic system.
Disconnect the pilot control.
Secure the machine with wheel chocks as to prevent
its rolling or overturning.

3.2 ADJUST THE SEAT

A seat poorly adjusted for operator or work require-


ments may quickly fatigue the operator leading to
improper operations.
The seat should be adjusted whenever machine op-
erator changes.
The operator should be able to press the pedals
completely and to move the hydraulic control levers
correctly, with his back resting against the seat back.

On machines equipped with seat belt:

5. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The hydraulic system is supplied by 3 pumps, a main double pump and an independent pump for slewing. The
engine and the pumps are monitored and controlled by the “Power Limit Control” system.
7 power levels can be selected, power level 1-4 for lifting, power level 5-7 for digging and levelling.
By selecting the “Drive” mode (Road travel) the system increases the power automatically to another higher
level.

2. SLEWING BEARING
The slewing bearing consists of an external ring inte-
gral to the upper structure, an internal ring integral to
the undercarriage and a double series of balls.
The pinion of the slewing gearbox, controlled by the
rotation motor by means of the gears of the gearbox
itself, rotates around its own axis and makes a revo-
lution around the centre of the internal ring of the
slewing bearing, thus enabling the upper structure to
rotate independently from the undercarriage.

REMOVE
Park the machine on a level and firm surface.
Lower the attachment to the ground.
Lower the blade and the stabilizers to the ground.
Engage the parking brake.
Lock the upper structure.
Stop the engine.
Place some wedges under the wheels so as to pre-
vent the machine from moving.
Move both hydraulic control levers in all directions,
to release possible residual pressure inside the hy-
draulic system.
For slewing bearing disassembly, it is necessary to
remove the upper structure.
Disconnect all hydraulic hoses and electric harness-
es from the rotary control valve and from the rotor.
Close all openings on pipes and rotary control valve
with plugs in order to prevent dirt from entering.
By using chains or ropes [with a carrying capacity of
20000 kg (44091 lb)], sling the upper structure in its
front and rear part.
Hook these ropes to two cranes [with a lifting capac-
ity of ~ 20000 kg (44091 lb) each] and slowly tension
them without lifting the upper structure.
Please remember that the internal ring (1) of the
slewing bearing is fastened to the undercarriage and
that the external ring (2) is fastened to the upper
structure.
Loosen and remove the screws (3) from the slewing
bearing’s external ring (2). Keep the spacers (5) be-
cause they will be reused.
Now the upper structure is detached from the
undercarriage.
Carefully lift the upper structure, until the pinion of
the slewing gearbox is freed. Turn the upper
structure away from the undercarriage.
Using a hoist, hook the slewing bearing (7).
For this operation, insert 3 threaded eyebolts (8),
staggered by 120°, into the holes, fastening them
with the nuts (9).
Loosen and remove the screws (4) and keep the
spacers (6) as they will be reused.
Lift the slewing bearing (7) and remove it from the
undercarriage.
4 SECTION 04 - UPPER STRUCTURE

ATTACH
When the slewing bearing is new, eliminate the
anticorrosive protection coat.
Carefully clean all supporting surfaces of the under-
carriage and the upper structure. The metal of the
supporting surfaces must be bright, clean and de-
greased. Eliminate projections and burrs.
Clean the holes of the undercarriage. Carefully
clean the threaded holes of the upper structure and
check the threads. If damaged, pass them again
with the screw tap.
Apply the adhesive to the supporting surface of the
undercarriage. For this operation, use a painting roll-
er, a hard brush or a plastic spatula.
Do not let the adhesive enter the holes. Adhesive on
threads causes higher friction and, therefore, an al-
teration of the tightening torque.
Hook the new slewing bearing to the hoist.
Rotate the internal and the external ring so that the
mark (S) on the external ring is at 90° to the travel di-
rection, and the mark (S) on the internal ring is on the
opposite side.
SECTION 04 - UPPER STRUCTURE 5

Rotate the slewing bearing on the undercarriage and


leave it hanging above the supporting surface,
without resting it. As a guide, screw in at least three
new screws (4) with relevant spacers (6).
Carefully rest the slewing bearing and disconnect
the hoist from the slewing bearing.
Screw in all remaining new screws with the relevant
spacers and cross-tighten them using a torque
wrench.
Tightening torque: 250 Nm (184.39 lbf·ft)
Mark the screws (4) already tightened.
Apply the adhesive, as described, also to the sup-
porting surface of the upper structure.
Apply grease in a level coat to the teeth of the slew-
ing bearing, so that the gaps between the teeth are
completely filled.
Rotate the upper structure on the undercarriage and
leave it hanging above the slewing bearing without
resting it.
Carefully continue lowering the upper structure, in-
serting the pinion between the teeth.
As a guide, screw in at least three new screws (3)
with relevant spacers (5).
Carefully release the upper structure.
Screw in all remaining new screws (3) with the rele-
vant spacers (5) and cross-tighten them using a
torque wrench.
Tightening torque: 250 Nm (184.39 lbf·ft)
Mark the screws (3) already tightened.
Connect all hydraulic hoses and electric harnesses
again to the rotary control valve and to the rotor.
Remove the ropes from the upper structure.
Fill and bleed air from the hydraulic system. Operate
the machine and check all hydraulic hoses for tight-
ness.
The adhesive between the slewing bearing and the
upper structure and between the slewing bearing
and the undercarriage increases the load capacity of
the screwed connection and contemporarily serves
as a seal between the gaps.
The adhesive hardens when exposed to air.
A definitive rigidity is obtained after ca. six hours.
Fully load the machine only after this time has
elapsed.
6 SECTION 04 - UPPER STRUCTURE

3. SLEWING GEARBOX
The rotation device consists of an hydraulic motor
(1) and a gearbox (2). The hydraulic motor consists
of an axial-piston motor. The gearbox is used to
rotate the upper structure by means of the coupling
of the relevant pinion (3) with the internal teeth of the
slewing bearing. The rotation device is installed on
the main frame of the upper structure.

3.2 REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

REMOVE
Park the machine on a level and firm surface.
Lower the attachment to the ground.
Lower the blade and the stabilizers to the ground.
Engage the parking brake.
Lock the upper structure.
Stop the engine.
Move both hydraulic control levers in all directions,
to release possible residual pressure inside the
hydraulic system.

In order to remove the slewing gearbox from its seat,


it is necessary to remove the control valve.
Access the control valve by climbing the relevant
machine plate from the left.
Remove any residual pressure from the hydraulic
tank by using the breather valve.
Open the engine guard.
To improve the access to the control valve, remove
the engine guard and its supporting crosspiece in-
stalled between the engine and the control valve it-
self.

S WARNING
The procedure provides for the disconnection of the
hydraulic lines which can contain a certain amount of
hydraulic oil. Adequately protect yourself from con-
tact.

Adequately mark the lines to be disconnected from


the control valve for a subsequent reassembly.
Disassemble all hydraulic lines from the control
valve installed on the upper side, on the arm’s side
and on the engine’s side (2). Install some plugs to
prevent the escape of the oil trapped inside the
control valve and a possible introduction of dust and/
or dirt.

Moreover, on the engine side, disconnect all electric


connections (3) after adequately marking them for a
subsequent reassembly. Sling the control valve and
loosen the 3 M16x60 screws (1) which fasten it to
the supporting bracket. After checking that no lines
or electric cables interfere with the assembly to be
removed, lift the assembly.
10 SECTION 04 - UPPER STRUCTURE

NOTE: adequately protect the radiator assembly.


Slowly lift the control valve, and avoid hitting the
surrounding walls.

Drain the hydraulic oil contained in the slewing gear-


box (see the Operator’s Manual).

Hydraulic oil always remains trapped inside


hydraulic lines and it is potentially dangerous for the
operator who carries out the procedure and for the
environment if it is not correctly collected and
disposed. For the collection of liquids to be
disposed, use the containers provided for these
operations and do not use unsuitable containers or
containers which could mislead people to drink its
content.
Use some plugs to prevent the introduction of dust
or dirt into the slewing gearbox and into the
disconnected lines.
Then disconnect the pilot line to T1 (4) of the
hydraulic motor of the slewing gearbox and the
supply and draining lines (5) to the sides of the
slewing motor and fastened by means of half-
flanges.
Get an appropriate container and disconnect the line
(6) of the expansion tank (7).
Collect the hydraulic oil.
Loosen the fasteners of the draining line for the oil
contained in the slewing gearbox. Disconnect the
brake control line (8).
Disconnect the electric connection (11) of the speed
sensor (10). Loosen the fastening screws (9) of the
rotation control valve to the frame.
Use 2 M10 x 1.5 ISO 3266 lifting eyes and sling the
gearbox. After checking that no lines or electric
cables interfere with the assembly to be removed,
proceed with lifting.
Lift, taking care not to damage the surrounding parts.
Bring the assembly to the workbench and overhaul it,
if necessary.
Weight of dry gearbox 120 kg (265 lb) ± 10%.
