main operating drums) powered through
chain drive by independent Type 4
torque converter. Independent torque
converter assures ample torque for load
line speeds and pulls (as well as for
boom hoisting/lowering)
without
affecting swing system.

diameter, 5-1/2" (0.14 m) face width.
Load lowering clutches - Front and rear
main operating drums - 37" (0.94 m)
diameter, 5-1/2" (0.14 m) face width.
Drum locking pawls - Operator
controlled; spring applied, hydraulically
released. Standard on front and rear
main operating drums.
Drum planetary drive units - Optional
for load hoist on either or both front and
rear main operating drums. Available for
increased load line speeds only.
Planetary drive units controlled by
external contracting band brakes

Standard for front and rear main

operating drums. Two solenoid
operated indicator buttons, recessed in
drum clutch control lever handles; one
button pulsates when rope drums rotate
in one direction, the other button
pulsates when drums rotate in the
opposite direction. Three to five
pulsations represent approxiately 1"
(25 mm) rope travel on or off drum.
