Excavator failure analysis: Why is there a strange noise in the slewing ring?


Since the slewing bearing of the excavator generally works under heavy load conditions, and 

the working environment of the excavator is relatively bad, the slewing bearing is prone to

cause of the abnormal noise? What should I do to troubleshoot?
1. The mounting surface is not flat and the mounting bolts are loose;
2. The slewing bearing has foreign matter;
3. The abnormal noise caused by the grease problem;
