•
Swing ring –
Two greasing pinions for the internal gearing of the swing ring supplied by the automatic lubrication system •
–
Two additional pinions which are made of felt will be installed inside the slew ring. These pinions are connected to the central lubrication system. The grease is distributed through holes in each tooth of that pinions. This system ensures that the slew ring teeth will be directly lubricated over their entire height which will reduce wear.
Dirt wipers at swing ring to prevent build-up of debris between swing ring and carbody •
The slew bearing will be equipped with 2 dirt wipers. These will clean the top chord of the car body
from material spillage in the area underneath the slew ring during slewing.
