Abstract: A method for attaching a clamping assembly to the frame of a machine includes attaching a sensor assembly to the spindle of a machine such that a wire harness extends through the internal cavity of the spindle and out from the spindle, fishing the wire harness through a breather line, and attaching the wiring harness to the chassis of a machine.

Abstract: A connector guard may include a first member having a planar base element. A planar end element may extend substantially perpendicularly from a first end of the planar base element. An end tab coextensive with the planar base element may protrude from a second end of the planar base element. Two planar side elements may extend substantially perpendicularly from the planar base element of the first member. The connector guard may include a second member having a planar base element. A planar end element may extend substantially perpendicularly from a first end of the planar base element of the second member. An end tab coextensive with the planar base element of the second member may protrude from a second end of the planar base element of the second member.

Abstract: Harness systems for a mining vehicle are disclosed. One system includes a first harness having a first plurality of wires coupled together and a first length. The system further comprises a second harness having a second plurality of wires coupled together and a second length, wherein at least one of the first plurality of wires is conductively coupled to at least one of the second plurality of wires. The second length spans a distance no greater than the first length. The second harness may be placed in a high risk area, which may be selected based upon at least one of one or more characteristics of the mining vehicle or a location of the high risk area within the mining vehicle.
