TB0095 SB362 A-pin Change

September 2013 PDF File

Technical Bulletin

Version 1

Description

As of September 2013 the A-Pin in all variants of SB362 cranes has been changed.

Models and Markets

This affects all SB362 cranes in all markets.

Bills of Material

New A-pin PN-42801

Older A-pin: PN-21819 (still used as D-pin on all SB362 models)

Backward Compatability

All SB362 cranes are currently in the process of being modified to fit the new A-Pin (and to modify the crane base to suit). The new pin cannot be used on an unmodified crane base and the old pin cannot be used on a modified crane base.

Use Instructions

The old pin was fitted from the container side and was retained by a circlip.

The new pin is fitted from the stabilizer side and is retained by a shouldered screw.

Advantages

The longer pin gives an increased bearing area in the crane base, thus reducing wear.
