PROBLEM

Show/hide table

The existing hose assemblies that connect to the air conditioner compressor can rub and wear through on certain 305.5 Mini Hydraulic Excavators. If the existing hose assemblies fail in this way, they can be replaced with new hose assemblies. The routing for the new hose assemblies is improved.
