Earthmoving equipment is heavy equipment, typically heavy-duty vehicles designed for construction operations that involve earthworks. BS 6913-10 is an International Standard that discusses the operation and maintenance of earth-moving machinery.
BS 6913-10 is a 10th part of the multi-series that establishes the types, shapes, and sizes of the parts of the plugs used in connection with the hand tools listed in ISO 4510-1 to permit easy removal and installation of plugs at the worksite.
BS 6913-10 applies to the drain, fill, and level plugs required on earth-moving machines for the changing of lubricants, coolants, hydraulic oils, and fuels.
Note: BS 6913-10 does not set requirements, i.e., dimensions and materials, for the manufacture of plugs.
BS 6913-10 on plugs for earth moving machinery is useful for:
A plug on earth moving machinery allows fluid to fill or drain from a tank when required. BS 6913-10 provides guidance on types and principal dimensions and applications of drain, fill and level plugs. Diagrams and tables help you to understand the types, shapes and sizes of the plugs.
BS 6913-10 is your handy guide for types of plugs on earth moving machinery so that you can easily remove and replace them during maintenance.
