Suspension Cylinder (Rear) - Purge and Charge

SMCS Code: 7201-045; 7201-542

Perform Testing and Adjusting, "Visual Inspections" before you service the suspension cylinders.

The machine must be on level ground when you inspect the suspension cylinder charge. The
truck body must be empty. Coast the machine to a gentle stop without using the brakes. Check
the suspension cylinders against the dimensions from the last time that you performed the
charging procedure. The suspension height will be different for each machine.

When the rear suspension cylinders are properly charged, the left rear suspension cylinder will
not show as much chrome as the right rear suspension cylinder shows. This is due to the rigid
frame and to the weight of the cab.

Note: Both suspension cylinders must be charged at the same time. If only one suspension
cylinder needs servicing, perform the procedure on both suspension cylinders.

Purge the Suspension Cylinder Of Oil And Of Nitrogen

Personal injury or death can result from sudden suspension cylinder

movement.

Sudden movement, up or down, can cause the clearance above your head to
change rapidly.

Read all warning labels on the suspension cylinders before servicing.

Do not check the oil in the suspension cylinder until all the nitrogen
pressure has been released.

2000/08/04 1
 Do not, under any condition, remove valves, cover or plugs from the
cylinder unless the rod is fully retracted and all the nitrogen
pressure is released.

Do not stand under the machine when testing or adjusting the suspension
cylinders.

Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during

performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting and repair
of the machine. Be prepared to collect the fluid with suitable
containers before opening any compartment or disassembling any
component containing fluids.

Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, "Caterpillar Tools and Shop

Products Guide", for tools and supplies suitable to collect and contain
fluids in Caterpillar machines.

Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and mandates.

(1) Valve caps

(2) Charging valves

1. Remove valve caps (1) from the charging valves (2) that are located on each of the rear
suspension cylinders. Disconnect the charging hoses from the rest of the 9U-5617 Oil Refill
Pump. Turn the check valves on the 7S-5106 Chucks counterclockwise in order to ensure that
the charging valves will not open during installation. Install the charging hoses to charging valves
(2) with 7S-5106 Chucks. The charging hoses will be used to drain oil into an approved

container.

2. Turn the check valves on the 7S-5106 Chucks clockwise. This opens up charging valves
(2) . This allows oil and nitrogen to flow through charging valves (2) . When the suspension
cylinders have bottomed completely, leave the check valves in position for five minutes in order to
allow the pressure in the suspension cylinders to equalize.

3. After the pressure has equalized, turn the check valves on the 7S-5106 Chucks
counterclockwise. This closes charging valves (2) .

4. Remove the charging hoses from charging valves (2) . Attach the charging hoses to the rest
of the 9U-5617 Oil Refill Pump. Place the ends of the charging hoses into an approved
container or into the filler tube of the 9U-5617 Oil Refill Pump. Cycle some oil in order to ensure
that the charging hoses are full of clean oil. Attach the 7S-5106 Chucks to charging valves (2) .

(7) Reference line for the nitrogen charging procedure

1. Position a steel ruler or a thin strip of sheet metal on both of the suspension cylinders in order
to measure the rod extension. A magnet can be used in order to mount the measuring tool.
Possible magnets include the magnetic plug for the final drive and the magnetic base for a dial
indicator. The measuring tool can also be mounted with the clamps that are used to mount the
dust boot. The measuring tool should extend downward. The measuring tool should be parallel to
the centerline of the suspension cylinder.

2. Create reference line (3) on the steel ruler. Reference line (3) should line up with the bottom
edge of the rod.

3. Create reference line (5) in order to indicate the guideline for the oil charging procedure.
Reference line (5) should be 12.7 mm (0.50 inch) below reference line (3) .

4. Measure the difference between the outside ambient temperature and the temperature of the
service shop. If this temperature difference is less than 11°C (20°F) , use Table 4 to create
guidelines for the nitrogen charging procedure. Table 4 shows the distance between the
reference line that is indicated and reference line (3) .

2000/08/04 4
 5. Measure the difference between the outside ambient temperature and the temperature of the
service shop. If this temperature difference is greater than 11°C (20°F) , you will need to change
the location of the reference lines. Add 2.54 mm (0.10 inch) of distance for each 5.5°C (10°F) of
temperature difference.

Example

Note: Estimate the temperature difference to the nearest 5.5°C (10°F).

Temperature of the service shop . . . 10°C (50°F)

Outside ambient temperature (50°F)

Difference in temperatures

10°C (50°F) - (-40°C (-40°F)) = 50°C (90°F)

Additional length for temperature compensation

50°C (90°F) 2.54 mm (0.10 in) ÷ 5.5°C (10°F) = 23.1 mm (.90 in)

Corrected guidelines for the nitrogen charging procedure

120.7 mm (4.75 mm) + 23.1 mm (0.90 in) = 143.8 mm (5.65 in)

133.4 mm (5.25 mm) + 23.1 mm (0.90 in) = 156.5 mm (6.15 in)

Typical example of the setup for the oil charging procedure

Note: Use SAE 10W oil with the current service classification for the oil charging procedure.

1. The charging hoses and the 7S-5106 Chucks should be connected to charging valves (2) .

2000/08/04 6
 Open the shutoff valves. Adjust the air pressure on the regulator. The air pressure must not
exceed 860 kPa (125 psi).

2. Turn the check valves on the 7S-5106 Chucks clockwise. This opens up charging valves
(2) .

3. Inject the oil into the suspension cylinder until reference line (5) lines up with the bottom
edge of the rod.

Note: If one suspension cylinder reaches reference line (5) before the other suspension
cylinder, close the shutoff valve for that suspension cylinder. Continue injecting oil into the other
suspension cylinder until the bottom edge of the rod lines up with reference line (5).

4. Close the shutoff valves. Turn off the air pressure at the regulator. Turn the check valves on
the 7S-5106 Chuck counterclockwise. This closes charging valves (2) .

5. After the pressure has returned to zero, use the quick couplers to remove the charging hoses.
If the quick couplers are not available, you may need to remove the 7S-5106 Chucks.

Nitrogen Charging Procedure

Dry nitrogen is the only gas approved for use in the suspension
cylinders. Charging the suspension cylinders with oxygen gas will cause
an explosion. This danger will not happen if nitrogen cylinders with
standard CGA (Compressed Gas Association, Inc.) Number 580 Connections
are used.

When you order nitrogen gas, be sure that the cylinders are equipped
with CGA No. 580 Connections. Do not use color codes or other methods

2000/08/04 7
 of identification to tell the difference between nitrogen cylinders and
oxygen cylinders.

Never use an adapter to connect your nitrogen charging group to a valve

outlet used on both nitrogen, oxygen or other gas cylinders. Be sure
you use dry nitrogen (99.8% purity).

Illustration 13

Typical example of the setup for the nitrogen charging procedure

1. Attach the 7S-5437 Nitrogen Charging Group to the quick couplers or to the charging
valves at each suspension cylinder.

Note: To prevent oil flow into the charging hoses, do not open the charging valves at this time.

2. On the supply tank, adjust the regulated pressure to 2400 kPa (350 psi).

3. Open the shutoff valves in order to allow nitrogen to flow to the 7S-5106 Chucks. Turn the
check valves on the 7S-5106 Chucks clockwise. This opens up charging valves (2) . This
allows nitrogen to flow to charging valves (2) .

4. Allow nitrogen into the suspension cylinder until the bottom edge of the rod is between
reference line (6) and reference line (7) .

2000/08/04 8
 Note: If one suspension cylinder has extended to the correct amount before the other
suspension cylinder, close the shutoff valve for that suspension cylinder. Continue allowing
nitrogen into the other suspension cylinder until the correct extension has been reached.

5. After the suspension cylinders have extended to the proper length, close both of the shutoff
valves. Turn the check valves on the 7S-5106 Chucks counterclockwise. This closes charging
valves (2) .

6. Turn off the nitrogen pressure at the supply tank. Remove the 7S-5437 Nitrogen Charging
Group. Install the valve caps to the charging valves. Torque the valve caps to 3 to 5 N·m (25 to
45 lb in).

7. After the suspension cylinders have been properly charged, measure the exposed chrome
length of each suspension cylinder. Record this measurement. Use these recorded dimensions
as a reference when you inspect the rear suspension cylinders.

This is an alternative to Step 7. Operate the machine for several load cycles after the machine
has been properly charged. Some of the exposed chrome length will be clean because of the
wiper seals. Measure this length for each suspension cylinder. Record this measurement. Use
these recorded dimensions as a reference when you inspect the rear suspension cylinder.

When the rear suspension cylinders are properly charged, the left rear suspension cylinder will
not show as much chrome as the right rear suspension cylinder shows. This is due to the rigid
frame and to the weight of the cab.
