Occupation : Heavy Duty Mechanic

WORK EXAMPLES UNDER CARRIAGE REPAIRS

The machine is jacked and park safely (with axle stands), the master link bolts are removed to uncouple the track. The track frame assembly is then taken off the machine to a safe place. The track frame is now dismantled; all parts are inspected for wear and damage. All bushings, worn track guards, rollers and idlers are changed. After changing all damaged and worn parts, the track frame was assembled and put back to the machine. If the track is found worn, it is changed. The track is rolled over the idler, rollers and final drive. The track is finally coupled with the master link; master link bolts are tightened to manufacturer's specification. The track frame is filled with gear oil and track tension.

FIELDSERVICE TROUBLESHOOTING

Types of Breakdowns I Troubleshoot in the Field

Engine Overheating, Low Engine Power, Machine Difficult to Start, Slow Implement Movement, Oil Leakages, Low Engine Oil Pressure, Hard Steering,

TROUBLESHOOTING - EXAMPLES OF SOME I HAVE DONE

Problem: Motor Grader cannot move forward or backward

Troubleshooting Procedure - Check transmission oil level, check transmission filter for plugging, check transmission cables for damage, check transmission tubes for leaks and damage. After troubleshooting, it was found that the transmission pump pressure was below manufacturer's specification. So, the transmission pump was removed and dismantled. After dismantling, all the parts and O-ring seals were washed and checked for wear and damage. All damaged parts were changed.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

Involves washing of the machine to prevent contamination, taking samples of various oils for testing and inspection of machine to check for leakages (done while the engine is running). The machine is then parked with transmission in neutral, engine off, parking brake engaged, implements lowered, master key off and locked. If machine is a dump truck, bucket is raised and locked. All oil is drained and then re-filled to specification. All filters are then changed and all identified leakages repaired. If it is dump truck, the accumulator pressure, suspension cylinders pressures and height are checked; if found below specification, it is recharged to manufacture's specification. This done by using a nitrogen bottle fitted with pressure gauges: the valve in the hose (connected to nitrogen bottle) is attached to the valve on the accumulator and tightened inside the valve, then the valve on the nitrogen bottle is opened and gas is filled to specification. At the end, the machine is started and run for some time for leaks to be checked again if no leakage found it is finally tested and if found in good running condition, it is released for operation.
