BASIC ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE Level 1 1. SITE PREPARATION 1. CHASSIS - Unload and crib for assembly. 2. UNLOAD TRAILERS OR RAIL CARS 3. ASSEMBLE CHASSIS * 2. TEMPORARY PLACEMENT OF AUXILIARY CONTROL CABINET; Refer to step 3, “930E Chassis Assembly Procedure” 4. WELD BODY * 3. DECK SUPPORT STRUCTURES (on horsecol- lar over suspension). * NOTE: These activities may be done in either order, or simultaneously, depending on available resources (cranes, welders, technicians, etc.). NOTE: It is easier to install and weld the deck support structures before the front suspensions are installed.
However, do not install the deck support structures first, unless there is a suitable means of installing the suspension with the deck support structures in place. 5. STATIC Checkout (Electrical & Mechanical) 6. MOUNT BODY TO CHASSIS 7. DYNAMIC Checkout (Electrical & Mechanical) 8. SITE CLEAN-UP 4. REAR SUSPENSION UPPER MOUNTS 5. HYDRAULIC TANK 6. FUEL TANK 7. FRONT SUSPENSIONS (See “DECK SUP- PORT STRUCTURE”) ORDER OF ASSEMBLY The assembly procedure is organized in levels. Gen- erally, the tasks to be done at a given level may be performed in any convenient order or simultaneously, but all the identified tasks in that level must be com- pleted before proceeding to the next higher level.
Each level depends on the components from the pre- vious level having been installed. 8. DIAGONAL LADDER 9. AIR CLEANER / UPRIGHTS 10. DIAGONAL SUPPORT STRUCTURES (leave loose until left deck is bolted in place) NOTE: Do not weld the air cleaner / uprights until all decks and the operator cab are installed. Ratchet hoists may be required to help tie all the structures together for a proper fit. NOTE: Due to differences in machine configurations and shipping restrictions/requirements throughout the world, the shipping and packaging of large machines will vary. Some of these steps may change due to different shipping configurations and/or truck options.
However, the following outline should provide general guidelines. Level 2 1. AIR CLEANER PIPING 2. CENTER DECK 3. CONTROL CABINET 4. AUXILIARY CONTROL CABINET Level 3 1. SPINDLES / HUBS 2.
