What's in it

It opens with overviews of the superstructure and engine house, then delivery, transport and lifting. Manpower, assembly time, site and space requirements and the weights follow.

The undercarriage goes together first, with the travel gear breathers and the track tensioning system. Then the superstructure, engine house, boom, hydraulic tank, cooler, fuel tank and ladder. The cab base, counterweight, walkways, cab, bucket cylinders and stick come next. The last section covers filling, air bleeding, the pre-start checks, the bucket, pin seals, harnesses and lubrication.

It's 94 pages and set out in the order a mine crew works. It's handy for planning crane time and staffing, as well as for the build itself.

Good to know

Read the whole guide before the machine arrives. It tells you how much room you need, what cranes and slings to have ready and which parts come separately, so nothing holds the crew up on the day. Then work through the steps in the order Komatsu gives them, and keep the torque values and fluid specs to hand as you go.

Before you buy

This is an assembly guide, not a repair manual. For troubleshooting and overhaul you'll want the machine's shop manual as well.
