SAFETY DECALS
Location of safety labels (decals) can vary from unit to unit.
Refer to appropriate Operation and Maintenance Manual, and
parts manual for your unit.
Always replace damaged or faded decals.
GENERAL
Safe Operation is Operator's
Responsibility
Only trained and authorized personnel should operate and
maintain the machine.
Follow all safety rules, regulations and instructions when
operating or performing maintenance on machine.
• Do not operate machine if you are under the influence of
drugs or alcohol. An operator who is taking prescription
drugs must get medical advice to determine if he or she
can safely operate a machine.
• When working with other personnel on a worksite, be sure
that all personnel know nature of work and understand all
hand signals that are to be used.
• Be sure that all guards and shields are installed in their
proper location. Have guards and shields repaired or
replaced immediately if damaged.
• Be sure that you understand the use and maintenance of
all safety features such as safety lock lever and seat belt.
Use them properly.
• Never remove, modify or disable any safety features.
Always keep them in good operating condition.
• Always check for and know the location of underground
and overhead utility lines before excavating.
• Failure to use and maintain safety features according to
instructions in this manual, Safety Manual and Shop
Manual can result in death or serious injury.
Know Your Machine
Know how to operate your machine. Know the purpose of all
controls, gauges, signals, indicators and monitor displays. Know
the rated load capacity, speed range, braking and steering
characteristics, turning radius and operating clearances. Keep in
mind that rain, snow, ice, loose gravel, soft ground, slopes etc.,
can change operating capabilities of your machine.

Proper Work Tools and Attachments
Only use work tools and attachments that are recommended by
DOOSAN for use on DOOSAN machines. When installing and
using optional attachments, read instruction manual for
attachment, and general information related to attachments in
this manual. Because DOOSAN cannot anticipate, identify or
test all attachments that owners may want to install on their
machines, contact DOOSAN for written authorization and
approval of attachments, and their compatibility with optional
kits.
Attachments and attachment control systems that are
compatible with the machine are required for safe and reliable
machine operation. Do not exceed maximum operating weight
(machine weight plus attachment) that is listed on ROPS
certification plate.
Make sure that all guards and shields are in place on machine
and on work tool. Depending on type or combination of work
equipment, there is a potential that work equipment could
interfere with the cabin or other parts of machine. Before using
unfamiliar work equipment, check if there is any potential of
interference, and operate with caution.
While you are performing any maintenance, testing, or
adjustments to attachments, stay clear of the following areas:
cutting edges, pinch points, and crushing surfaces.
Never use attachment as a work platform or manlift.
Contact your DOOSAN distributor about auxiliary hydraulic kits
for attachments installation. If you are in doubt about
compatibility of a particular attachment with a machine, consult
your DOOSAN distributor.
Pressurized Fluids
Pressurized air or fluids can cause debris and/or fluids to be
blown out. This could result in death or serious injury.
Immediately after operations are stopped, coolant, engine oil,
and hydraulic oil are at their highest temperatures and the
radiator and hydraulic tank are still under pressure. Always wait
for temperature to cool down. Follow specified procedures when
attempting to remove caps, drain oil or coolant, or replacing
filters. Always wait for temperature to cool down, and follow
specified procedures when performing these operations. Failure
to do so can result in death or serious injury.
When pressurized air and/or pressurized water is used for
cleaning, wear protective clothing, protective shoes, and eye
protection. Eye protection includes goggles or a protective face
shield.
Pressure can be trapped in a hydraulic system and should be
relieved before maintenance is started.
FG018457
Figure 1
9. SP002322
Page 9
Track Excavator Maintenance Safety
Releasing trapped pressure can cause sudden machine
movement or attachment movement. Use caution if you
disconnect hydraulic lines or fittings.
High-pressure oil that is released can cause a hose to whip or oil
to spray. Fluid penetration can result in death or serious injury. If
fluid enters skin or eyes, get immediate medical attention from a
physician familiar with this injury.
Obey all local laws and regulations for disposal of liquids.
To prevent hot coolant from spraying out, stop engine and wait
for coolant to cool. Using gloves, slowly loosen cap to relieve
pressure.
Flying or Falling Objects
On work sites where there is a potential hazard that flying or
falling objects can hit operator's cabin, select and use a guard to
match operating conditions for additional operator protection.
Working in mines, tunnels, deep pits, and loose or wet surfaces,
could produce hazard of falling rocks or flying objects. Additional
protection for operator's cabin could be required such as an
Operator Protection Guard (OPG) or window guards. Contact
your DOOSAN distributor for information on available protective
guards.
To prevent personnel from being struck by flying objects, keep
personnel out of work area.

SWING BEARING
MAINTENANCE
Operating Recommendation
The service life of the swing bearing may be extended if a daily
effort is made to equalize usage over both ends of the
excavator. If the excavator is used in the same operating
configuration day in and day out (for example, with the travel
motors always under the counterweight, or with the attachment
over one side of the machine more than the other), the bearing's
service life could be reduced. Repositioning the excavator
during the work shift, to work the opposite end of the bearing,
will provide a more even and gradual rate of wear and extended
service life.
Measuring Swing Bearing Axial Play
Regular checks of bearing displacement should be made at
least twice a year. Use a dial indicator. Push the attachment
against the ground to lift up the excavator above the ground and
take measurements at 4 points, 90° apart, around the
circumference of the bearing (Figure 1).
Record and keep all measurements. Play in the bearing should
increase minimally from one inspection to the next. Eventually,
however, as the bearing begins to approach the limit of its
service life, clearance increases become much more
pronounced and the actual measured play in the bearing could
exceed twice the value that was measured when the machine
was new.
Measuring Bearing Lateral Play
When vertical checks are made, the side to side play in the
bearing can be checked by fully retracting the arm and bucket
cylinders and extending the tip of the bucket as far forward as it
will go. With the excavator parked on a flat, level surface and the
bucket tip just off the ground, push against the bucket sideways
to take up all the lateral clearance in the bearing. (Less than 100
lb of force should be required to move the bucket over all the
way.) Check lateral play in both directions and record the values.
When the bearing is beginning to approach the end of its service
life, measured lateral clearance should start to show increase in
value.

Swing Bearing
Swing Bearing Basic Operation
The swing bearing, which connects the upper structure with the
lower structure, consists of a inner ring, outer ring and ball
bearings. During swing movement, power from the swing motor
is transferred to the pinion by planetary gears connected to
gears on the inner ring, which is fixed in the undercarriage. Ball
bearings turn the outer ring.
Disassembly
1. Remove tip of tapered pin (3, Figure 3) using grinder and
tap lightly to remove debris.
2. Remove plug (4, Figure 4) using a M10 x P 1.5 bolt.

Track Assembly
TRACK TENSION
Track shoe link pins and bushings wear with normal usage,
reducing track tension. Periodic adjustment is necessary to
compensate for wear and it may also be required by working
conditions.
1. Track tension is checked by jacking up one side of the
excavator. See Figure 1. Place blocking under frame while
taking measurement.
Turn the track backward by 1 - 2 turns.
2. Measuring the distance (A, Figure 2) between the bottom
of the side frame and the top of the lowest crawler shoe.
Recommended tension for operation over most types of
terrain is distance "B" in below table.
NOTE: Clean off the tracks before checking clearance
for accurate measurements.
3. Too little sag in the crawler track (less than clearance
distance "B" in below table) can cause excessive
component wear. The recommended adjustment can also
be too tight causing accelerated stress and wear if ground
conditions are wet, marshy or muddy.
WARNING
AVOID DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY
Measuring track tension requires two people. One person
must be in the operator's seat, operating the controls while
the other person makes dimensional checks. Block frame to
make sure the machine won't move or shift position during
service. Warm up the engine to prevent stalls, park the
excavator in an area that provides level, uniform ground
support and/or use support blocks when necessary.
The track adjusting mechanism is under very
high-pressure. NEVER release grease pressure too fast.
The track tension grease valve should never be loosened
more than one (1) complete turn from the fully tightened
down position. Bleed off grease pressure slowly. Keep your
body away from the valve at all times. Always wear eye and
face protection when adjusting track tension.

4. The increased clearance recommended for muddy, sandy
or snowy ground conditions is between distance "C" on
below table.
5. Track tension adjustments are made through the grease
fitting (1, Figure 3) in the middle of each side frame. Adding
grease increases the length of an adjustment cylinder (2).
Extending the adjustment cylinder, increases the pressure
on the tension spring pushing the track idler wheel
outward.
6. If there is not enough slack or clearance in the tracks and
the adjustment is too tight, the idler wheel and adjusting
cylinder can be retracted by bleeding off grease through
hole in adjustment cylinder (2, Figure 3).
