Service Magazine SEPD0678, 07 April 2003, "New Exhaust Tubes and Heat Shields are Now Used". The list of affected models has been updated and additional information has been provided. Replace the article with the following information.

Description of Change: New exhaust tubes and heat shields are now in production for the above 3408E Machine Engines. The new one-piece exhaust tubes replace the former two-piece exhaust tubes. The new exhaust tubes include the following improvements: a redesigned flange, flexible bellows and improved parent material. The new heat shields provide protection to the flexible bellows. These new changes improved the strength and service life of the tubes.

Adaptable To: Refer to the following tables and illustrations for a list of the new part numbers. Each new exhaust tube replaces the following parts: the upper exhaust tube, the lower exhaust tube, the exhaust seal, the exhaust seal ring and a clamp. The new heat shields must be used with the new exhaust tubes.

Note: For the 631E, 633E, 637E Wheel Tractor Scrapers that are powered by 3408 engines, the new exhaust tubes and the new heat shields are part of 176-6619 Air Lines Gp .

Note: The new exhaust tubes and the new heat shields can also be used in 131-3269 Air Lines Gp and 130-8918 Air Lines Gp which are used on 651E and 657E Wheel Tractor-Scrapers.
