INSTALLATION OF SAS™ EXTREME™ AUTO PROCESSOR HOLD DOWN ASSEMBLY (HDA):
INSTALLATION SHOULD BE COMPLETED BY AN EXPERIENCED HEAVY EQUIPMENT MECHANIC
SAS™ EXTREME™ AUTO PROCESSOR
1. Remove existing dozer blade. Inspect pins and bushings. Replace as needed.
2. Hold Down Assembly (HDA) weight approximately 1,600 kg ( 3,500 LB ). Eyelets in center of HDA is balance point. If excavator is sufficiently rated to
lift such, align stick with lifting eyelets. Using safe and adequately rated rig-
ging chains, keeping all persons clear, lift HDA off pallet. Move away from
shipping pallet and place on ground with block in place which will allow upper
surface of HDA to be level.
3. HDA should be set level as shown below for staging. Drive excavator up to
HDA and align lower pivot holes in dozer blade mount on excavator with holes
“A” in HDA. Insert and secure pivot pins into assembly.
4. With pivot pins inserted and secure, slowly extend dozer blade hydraulic cylin-
ders to align holes in rod end of cylinder to lift holes “B” in HDA. Keep clear of
pinch points. Insert and secure pivot pins into assembly.
5. Replace any guarding that may have been removed during the removal of the
dozer blade assembly.
SAS has no responsibility as to performance of excavator’s Hydraulic system or
structural adequacy or durability with this attachment.
GROUND
AFTER INSTALLATION, PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Grease all pivot points with Stick and HDA resting on the ground and machine engine off.
2. Stay clear of pinch points. Slowly engage controls. Watch for interference. Stop if interference occurs.
a) Test up and down motions of HDA. Due to differences in machines and cylinder control valves, if
down cycle is not smooth, a jerking condition may occur.
Typically this can be rectified by installing simple flow control
valves on the hydraulic lines which feed the extend side of the
dozer cylinders. (Indicated by arrows). (see Hold Down Parts list
on separate page). Two flow control valves are included in parts
kit with Qty 2, SAS Part No. HV-FLW-D-EF30S : Thread #8 NPT
Install flow control valves with fittings between car body frame
hose connection and hydraulic hose. Turn settings to near zero.
Test motion. Slightly open valves uniform amount. Retest. Repeat
until jerking occurs, then turn back to achieve smooth motion.
b) Test rotational clearance with HDA raised incrementally higher. Stay clear of pinch points, overhead
electrical wires, and other structures, slowly and cautiously rotate cab and counter weight visually
checking for interference of lower cab and counter weight with HDA lifted at highest level.
Stop if interference occurs.

DESCRIPTION QTY PART NUMBER
M.4 Pilot Operated Selector Valve Block [‘Valve’]……………….. 1 HV-BLK-F-DS70HP-1
Locate ‘Valve’ for installation within protected area inside the x-frame belly. Purpose: Divert fluid from right track to hydraulics to SAS Extreme hold down cylinders.
●Ports A & B are input Into ‘Valve’ which are pulled downstream of swivel/collector underneath the excavator that
would originally route to one drive motors for one of the tracks, SAS has always used the ‘right’ track hydraulics.
●Ports E & F are then routed to drive motor for right track in standard position.
●The high speed pilot line that originally runs to each the left and the right track drive motors is disconnected from
the motors and now only is routed to the pilot port on this ‘Valve’. This pilot line is typically the smaller of the two
small lines that run through the swivel/collector. This enables the 2nd position of the ‘Valve’ to function when the
‘high speed’ function is actuated in the cab of the excavator.
●With this pilot line pressurized, the ports C & D are now live and will be routed to the cylinders to position the hold
down up and down.
●’Drain line’ is final port on ‘Valve’, this will be need to be teed into existing drain line that runs from each track
drive motor and back up through the swivel. This line is typically larger of two ‘small’ lines running through swivel/
collector.

Place grapple on firm level surface, turn off machine & avoid pinch points.
Lubricating the RLP rotator (For models: SAS EXTREME EX-25 v2 & v3 )
Lubricate the RLP rotator after it has been working for several hours because the new grease penetrates
more easily when the old grease is hot. If the working environment contains a high percentage of dirt
and/or humidity, the lubrication period must be shortened.
Recommended grease
This grease can also be used in winter conditions. Avoid mixing different types of grease. Grease should
have excellent water-repulsion durability, antirust capabilities, adhesive abilities and mechanical stability.
Place grapple on firm level surface, turn off machine & avoid pinch points.
Inspection of Accumulator inside the RLP rotator (For models: SAS EXTREME EX-25 v2 & v3 )
Rotators without case drain line installed require regular accumulator pressure inspection by a profession-
al equipment service technician with a Hydac charging & gauging unit (PN#02068195) or similar device.
Pressure test interval
Perform a pressure check bi-monthly, or at 100 hour intervals. Hour meter and date should be recorded.
Overview accumulator pressure requirement
Accumulator should have 15 PSI. Test at accumulator pressure port, only with proper test kit.
OPTIONAL CASE DRAIN LINE INSTALLATION WILL PROMOTE LONGER LIFE:
From factory the rotator came with an accumulator to relieve pressure. These parts have a life cycle and
can fail. Installing a case drain (free flow return line) can help prevent damage to motor if accumulator
fails. Extreme units with five hoses have already have the case drain installed.
Installation of case drain line will help prevent damage risk due to pressure spikes to hydraulic motor.

■ Product production date
■ Notice to refer to Excavator OEM positional lift chart and make appropriate reductions in permissible lift
capacities to offset any differential in the original rated attachment, if any, and the weight of the Product,
the Extreme Head Assembly.
It is important to note that the actual load (lift) ratings of the product are impacted by multiple factors
in which the operator is responsible to take into account and to reduce the weight of any potential
item to lift, to ensure machine remains stable, and does not tip. The below items are not a comprehensive
list, but these complex work variables must be taken into account by the operator to ensure
safe operation;
■ Ground or working surface stability
■ (More unsafe: soft, unpredictable or variable surface compaction /vs/ More safe: solid surface)
■ Positioning of excavator on such working surface
■ (More unsafe: angled and tilted /vs/ More safe: flat & level )
■ Proximity in which excavator is to work and materials to be lifted.
■ (More unsafe: Extending lift arms and lifting /vs/ More safe: working close with minimum reach
■ Lowering and engagement of outriggers to working surface
■ (More unsafe: Outriggers removed and/or not engaged to ground /vs/ More safe; Outriggers
lowered fully and engaged with solid working surface.
■ Amount of hydraulic pressure operator allocates to the grapple of the Extreme product
■ (More unsafe: Operator not providing sufficient hydraulic pressure to engage object lifted /vs/
More safe: Operator engages excavator’s hydraulic system to ensure secure grappling.
■ Lift capacity limitation of excavator, based on excavator’s OEM lift capacity chart
■ (More unsafe: Not understanding parameters and assumes within the excavator’s OEM chart
■ Strength and durability of the item being lifted. (This product is meant only to lift scrap metal, never
lift any good resalable product. Never lift any persons or any device holding any persons.
■ (Prohibited & dangerous: Attempting to lift persons in any manner will result in injury or death.
■ (More unsafe: Lifting items in such a manner that may rip or separate /vs/
■ More safe: Grapple items on heavy surface that provides a secure grip with Extreme grapple.
The structure of the Extreme auto processor grapple head attachment is designed to lift a load that
meets or exceeds the excavator’s boom lift capacity, when hydraulic pressure of between 80% and
100% of maximum pressure per the label on Extreme grapple head attachment is supplied by the excava-
tor, the Extreme’s grapple mechanism to adequately engage the item lifted.
The lift limitations set forth by the excavator OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) must be reviewed
and understood by the operator. The excavator OEM operator manual or in cab label is expected to pro-
vide a chart with lifting capacities at a variety of lift positions, in accordance with ISO 10567:2007 The op-
erator must apply the weight of the Extreme grapple head assembly and interpret the excavator OEM
chart whereas the position of the dozer blade or stabilizers are considered to be off the ground to determine the permissible load.
Sample chart. This chart does not contain any valid lift capacities for any excavator equipped with an
Extreme auto processor attachment.
In accordance with typical excavator OEM lifting charts, with general reference to sample chart
above, positions that effectively reduce the load threshold at which tipping occurs, include:
●Lifting dozer blade, downriggers or Extreme hold down arm, as shown in sample illustration (B) or (C).
●Turning of excavator’s cab across tracks or wheels with the dozer up, shown in sample illustration (C).
●Extending the reach of the boom and stick.
Operator must identify load chart for specific excavator, not included herein, and use limits per
the chart which specifies ‘dozer up and side lift’ or ‘outriggers up and side lift’, and subtract
weight of Extreme grapple head assembly, to identify the net lift capacity permissible.
FOLLOW SAFETY INFORMATION IN EXCAVATOR
MANUFACTURER OPERATOR MANUAL.
Be cautious, as working load capacities are determined.
Secure car down with Hold Down Arm.
Use jaws to pull and break out desired scrap metal.
Prior to rotating cab be sure Hold Down Arm is lowered against car or flat on the ground.
