What's in it

The structure and function chapter covers the hydraulic pumps, the control valve, the swing and travel motors and the cylinders. The electrical system and sensors follow. Then comes testing, adjusting and troubleshooting, with the pressures, settings and fault tables you'll need when the machine is slow, weak or throwing codes.

Disassembly and assembly takes you through removing and rebuilding the main components, and the maintenance standards give the wear limits for pins, bushings, motors and undercarriage parts.

The PC160LC-7 is a popular mid-size machine with plant hire firms and general contractors. Mechanics reach for this book most often for swing and travel faults and for checking pump output before deciding on a rebuild.

Good to know

Most people use a book like this one section at a time. Look up the system that's giving trouble, read how it's meant to work, test it against the standard values, and only then order parts. That order saves money, because a reading that's close to spec usually points somewhere other than the part you suspected first. You can print the pages for the job and keep the PDF on a tablet for everything else.
