CORE AS-HEATER 3516074 - Caterpillar

* Still available for use in Japan.
** Continued to be serviced for replacement bushing for the former link assemblies.
*** Available 4th Qtr 2003.
Adaptability
The new link assemblies and tough steel segments are now available in the parts department for the current and non-current machines.
?
Former link assemblies will be service replaced by a new link assembly and (2) 4 tooth and (3) 5 tooth tough steel segments.
?
Former bushing (56.6 mm diameter) part number 9G-8588 will continued to be offered for repairing or replacing individual bushings in the former link assemblies. If entire sets of bushings are required, a new bushing and seal group will be available with the larger stepped bushings (4th quarter 2003).
?
Former segment will be service replaced by the new tough steel segment. To obtain maximum life improvement former and new segments should not be mixed.
?
Former segments must not be used with the new larger stepped bushing. This could accelerate bushing wear or cause track ?popping? or ?jumping?.
?
New tough steel segments also replace segments used for the Rotating Bushing Track option.
?
New segment can be used with former link assemblies and bushing (such as after bushing turn) without detrimental effect on bushing life.
?
New segments are positively identified (similar to other tough steel segment) by the new part number, and by a ?scallop? under each tooth. This is visible when observing sprocket segments mounted on the machine - see below.
