The breadth of services offered by Schlam ensures that we are able to satisfy all major mobile plant shut downs. 

In 2020, Schlam assembled a dedicated HME shutdown team to work excavators, haul trucks and drill rigs across the Pilbara. 

The team recently completed Schlam’s biggest shutdown job to date - a three-week shutdown on an EPIROC Pit Viper 351. 

The scope for the project involved: 

  • Removal of the mast
  • Engine removal and replacement
  • Compressor change out
  • Removal and refurbishment of track frames 
  • Installation of new tracks, rollers, idler and guides
  • Install new associated components such as pumps, pump hosing, hydraulic valves, etc. 
  • Line boring of frame
