Think Safety

Most accidents that involve product operation, maintenance, and repair are caused by failure to observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing potentially hazardous situations before an accident occurs. A person must be alert to potential hazards. This person should also have the necessary training, skills, and tools to perform these functions properly. Improper operation, lubrication, maintenance, or repair of this product can be dangerous and could result in injury or death. Do not operate or perform any lubrication, maintenance, or repair on this product until you have read and understood the operation, lubrication, maintenance, and repair information. Safety precautions and warnings are provided in this manual and on the product. If these hazard warnings are not heeded, bodily injury or death could occur to you or to other persons. The hazards are identified by the Safety Alert Symbol and followed by a Signal Word such as DANGER,WARNING, or CAUTION. The Safety Alert WARNING label is shown below. A non-exhaustive list of operations that may cause product damage are identified by NOTICE labels on the product and in this publication.

Introduction
European Union Compliant, CE Marked Important Safety Information

Caterpillar cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard. The warnings in this publication and on the product are therefore, not all inclusive. If a tool, procedure, work method, or operating technique that is not recommended by Caterpillar is used, the operator must be sure that the procedures are safe. The operator must also be sure that the product will not be damaged or made unsafe by any unspecified procedures. The information, specifications, and illustrations in this publication are based on information that was available at the time that the publication was written. The specifications, torques, pressures, measurements, adjustments, illustrations, and other items can change at any time. These changes can affect the service that is given to the product. Obtain the complete and most current information before you start any job. When replacement parts are required for this product, Caterpillar recommends using Cat replacement parts or parts with equivalent specifications including, but not limited to physical dimensions, type, strength, and material.

Photographs and illustrations guide the operator through correct procedures for using the tool group. Operating techniques outlined in this publication are basic. Skill and techniques develop as the operator gains knowledge of the service tool and tool capabilities.

The 423-1236 Cam Bearing Installation and Removal Tool is designed to install cam bearings by utilizing the dowel holes and top surface of the block. This aligns the tool for a repeatable and efficient press of the bearing to the proper depth without possible bore damage caused by misalignment. A removal mandrel is also included that allows the bearing to be pressed out with the same alignment to eliminate bore damage.

Figure 1

To set up the tool for bearing installation or removal, it is required that the tool be attached to the appropriate hydraulic power supply. The 1U7524 air powered hydraulic power unit is recommended.

Note: Refer to KENR6053, Installation, and Removal of the Camshaft Bearings, for additional information.

1. Inspect the bearing bore for burrs or contamination before installing the bearing. A light coating of clean oil will help the bearing press in smoothly.

4. Activate the power supply and observe the cylinder as it presses the bearing into the bore. Verify that the bearing does not turn off its orientation. The bearing should be pressed into the center of the bore. Note: The cylinder will press the bearing in short steps. This is normal for this type of power supply.

2. Place a new bearing on the installation mandrel. Make sure that the oil passage is on the same center line as the cylinder and 90 degrees from the oil port on the engine block top deck as shown in Figure 3.

5. Verify that the bearing is located to the proper depth by squirting a small amount of clean oil down the oil passage on the top deck. The oil will run out of the lube holes in the bearing quickly. 6. Repeat the process on the remaining bearings. 7. To remove the old bearing, remove the assembly mandrel from the cylinder. Place the removal mandrel all the way into the bearing bore. Repeat steps 3 and 4.

3. Place the tool on the top deck of the block and locate it in the dowel holes. Tighten the Tee retainer screw. This will keep the press fixture secure during the press process.

Inspection and Maintenance Section

Inspection
Inspect and clean all of the parts on the Cam Bearing R&I Tool before each use. Contaminants can cause rapid engine wear and shortened component life.

If components are worn or damaged, the components must be replaced. 1. Inspect tooling prior to each use for damage, bending, nicks, burrs, dents, cracks, hydraulic leaks, bent, or worn parts. 2. Inspect the polyurethane cover on the installation mandrel for imbedded debris or damage. 3. Do not use if any holes are elongated or deformed. 4. Do not use if hardware is damaged or missing. 5. Check for cracks and damaged or galled threads. 6. Inspect the disassembly mandrel for deformation. Repair or replace if necessary. 7. Have the tool inspected annually by an approved dealership inspector.

Maintenance
A seal kit is available for the 360-6953 Cylinder. This is available from the Cat part distribution system as part number 361-4312.

Cleaning
Clean tools using a non solvent-based cleaner. Since the tool is used as an assembly and disassembly tool, it should be cleaned thoroughly after using in the disassembly process to avoid contamination, especially on the urethane mandrel surface.

Storage
1. Store tooling in a clean, dry location to prevent rust or corrosion. Tooling can be damaged by moisture or high humidity. 2. The tool should be stored in the most stable position.

Tool Disposal
At the end of the operational life of the tool, destroy the tool and dispose of as scrap.
