HOIST FILTER MOUNT
SUGGESTION 222-C-77
a. The suggestion advocates relocating and securing the dump body hoist, hydraulic oil filter of the CCE-IHC 20 Ton
Dump Truck. Presently the filter is mounted on a pipe nipple welded on the front head sheet of the hydraulic reservoir
tank and is further braced to the tank by a cantilever bracket also welded to the front head sheet. Dump truck vibration
fatigues the head sheet metal, where the nipple is welded to the tank, and the resultant cracks cause oil leakage. The
suggestion recommends relocation of the filter from the hydraulic tank mount to a larger, sturdier bracket mount on the
cab-frame bracket and provides a new, flexible, hydraulic hose line between the new filter location and the hydraulic tank
inlet nipple.
