Measurement Instruction the Wear of Slewing bearing for Deck crane

1. General information

Following this instruction, slewing bearing rocking test should be done periodically for recording the

wear of slewing bearing and maintenance it.

While operating crane continually, periodic checkup of wear of slewing bearing will prevent

accidents to confirm whether or not it exceeds the max. allowable deviation.

2. Measurement of wear

There are two check points including the inside and outside of pedestal, but we'd like to recommend

to take the outside check point of pedestal considering safety.

To reduce wear of the inside of slewing bearing ball and race, it should be charged with gear oil

recommended periodically.

The max. allowable deviation(Table.1) are ones for single row ball type slewing bearing.

Table.1 : Max. allowable deviation in slewing bearing

3. Interval of measurement

After deliveryy of ship,

p, wear of slewing
g bearing
g should be checked in the basic three(3) months,, and

after then, every six(6) months.

4. Check procedure

1. When rocking testing, a checkpoint on the pedestal part should be chosen at the place to
interference, revolving sideshell or crane.
2. Measurement position should be chosen at four(4) directions by equivalent degree on the
fixed post(pedestal) parts.
3. If there is restriction of revolving area when the crane revolves, make sure to divide all angles
able to revolve into four(4) equal parts.
4. Extra red paint should be marked on the bolt checked on the fixed post(pedestal).
5 Record on the check sheet after checking regularly at the same point and direction as equipvalent
5.
degree marked on the status of no-load and max. working radius of the crane.
6. The tool(depth gauge) which is used to check can measure like photo of Fig.1.
7. The result of periodic measurement record should be compared with the max. allowable deviation
provided by the manufacturer.
8 If new check dimension is larger than the prior record of wear
8. wear, the gear oil charging cycle should
be short.
9. Please contact to customer service department of DMC if it is measured over the max. allowable
deviation of Table.1.

WARNING !
Be cautious not to operate crane as checking dimension during rocking test.
