WARNING

The proper and safe lubrication and maintenance for this lift truck, recommended by Cat lift truck, are outlined in the OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL for these trucks. Improper performance of lubrication or maintenance procedures is dangerous and could result in injury or death. Read and understand the OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL before performing any lubrication or maintenance.

The serviceman or mechanic may be unfamiliar with many of the systems on this truck. This makes it important to use caution when performing service work. A knowledge of the system and/or components is important before the removal or disassembly of any component. Because of the size of some of the truck components, the serviceman or mechanic should check the weights noted in this Manual. Use proper lifting procedures when removing any components. Following is a list of basic precautions that should always be observed. 1. Read and understand all warning plates and decals on the truck before operating, lubricating or repairing the product. 2. Always wear protective glasses and protective shoes when working around trucks. In particular, wear protective glasses when pounding on any part of the truck or its attachments with a hammer or sledge. Use welders gloves, hood/goggles, apron and other protective clothing appropriate to the welding job being performed. Do not wear loose-fitting or torn clothing. Remove all rings from fingers when working on machinery. 3. Do not work on any truck that is supported only by lift jacks or a hoist. Always use blocks or jack stands to support the truck before performing any disassembly.

!

WARNING

Do not operate this truck unless you have read and understand the instructions in the OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL. Improper truck operation is dangerous and could result in injury or death.

4. Lower the forks or other implements to the ground before performing any work on the truck. If this cannot be done, make sure the forks or other implements are blocked correctly to prevent them from dropping unexpectedly. 5. Use steps and grab handles (if applicable) when mounting or dismounting a truck. Clean any mud or debris from steps, walkways or work platforms before using. Always face truck when using steps, ladders and walkways. When it is not possible to use the designed access system, provide ladders, scaffolds, or work platforms to perform safe repair operations. 6. To avoid back injury, use a hoist when lifting components which weigh 23 kg (50 lb.) or more. Make sure all chains, hooks, slings, etc., are in good condition and are of the correct capacity. Be sure hooks are positioned correctly. Lifting eyes are not to be side loaded during a lifting operation. 7. To avoid burns, be alert for hot parts on trucks which have just been stopped and hot fluids in lines, tubes and compartments. 8. Be careful when removing cover plates. Gradually back off the last two bolts or nuts located at opposite ends of the cover or device and pry cover loose to relieve any spring or other pressure, before removing the last two bolts or nuts completely. 9. Be careful when removing filler caps, breathers and plugs on the truck. Hold a rag over the cap or plug to prevent being sprayed or splashed by liquids under pressure. The danger is even greater if the truck has just been stopped because fluids can be hot.


10. Always use tools that are in good condition and be sure you understand how to use them before performing any service work. 11. Reinstall all fasteners with same part number. Do not use a lesser quality fastener if replacements are necessary. Do not mix metric fasteners with standard nuts and bolts. 12. If possible, make all repairs with the truck parked on a level, hard surface. Block truck so it does not roll while working on or under truck. 13. Disconnect battery and discharge any capacitors (electric trucks) before starting to work on truck. Hang “Do not Operate� tag in the Operator’s Compartment. 14. Repairs, which require welding, should be performed only with the benefit of the appropriate reference information and by personnel adequately trained and knowledgeable in welding procedures. Determine type of metal being welded and select correct welding procedure and electrodes, rods or wire to provide a weld metal strength equivalent at least to that of parent metal. 15. Do not damage wiring during removal operations. Reinstall the wiring so it is not damaged nor will it be damaged in operation by contacting sharp corners, or by rubbing against some object or hot surface. Do not connect wiring to a line containing fluid. 16. Be sure all protective devices including guards and shields are properly installed and functioning correctly before starting a repair. If a guard or shield must be removed to perform the repair work, use extra caution. 17. Always support the mast and carriage to keep carriage or attachments raised when maintenance or repair work is performed, which requires the mast in the raised position.

18. Loose or damaged fuel, lubricant and hydraulic lines, tubes and hoses can cause fires. Do not bend or strike high pressure lines or install ones which have been bent or damaged. Inspect lines, tubes and hoses carefully. Do not check for leaks with your hands. Pin hole (very small) leaks can result in a high velocity oil stream that will be invisible close to the hose. This oil can penetrate the skin and cause personal injury. Use cardboard or paper to locate pin hole leaks. 19. Tighten connections to the correct torque. Make sure that all heat shields, clamps and guards are installed correctly to avoid excessive heat, vibration or rubbing against other parts during operation. Shields that protect against oil spray onto hot exhaust components in event of a line, tube or seal failure, must be installed correctly. 20. Relieve all pressure in air, oil or water systems before any lines, fittings or related items are disconnected or removed. Always make sure all raised components are blocked correctly and be alert for possible pressure when disconnecting any device from a system that utilizes pressure. 21. Do not operate a truck if any rotating part is damaged or contacts any other part during operation. Any high speed rotating component that has been damaged or altered should be checked for balance before reusing.

Operation Outline

Drive System

(1) Power ON, default condition

Neutral position

Turning on the key switch supplies power to the controller. When power is ON, the controller checks all switches and sensor input conditions; the combination display indicates the vehicle condition.

If the truck runs and the direction lever is in the neutral position, then the regeneration function is activated. If the truck is powered by turning the key switch to ON and the direction lever is in the neutral position, the controller checks whether the drive motor is turning or not.

Next, the line contactor turns ON and provides battery power to the main circuit. The pump motor starts rotating (idle revolution is 500 to 600 rpm). Seat switch: ON

Powering

Forward/reverse lever: Neutral

(1) Outline

Accelerator is a combination of the digital signal (accelerator idle switch) and the analog signal (accelerator input). Digital signals relationship to analog signal.

Hydraulic lever: OFF Accelerator: Neutral

• Analog signal range is from 0 to 5 V. • Digital signal voltage change (open ↔ close) is typically 0.94V ± 0.47V.

With the line contactor in the ON condition, the hourmeter indicates cumulative hours.

During vehicle operation the signal voltage ranges from where the accelerator idle switch is closed (typically 0.94 V ± 0.47 V) to about 4 V.

(2) Normal mode (RUN mode)

When the direction lever is operated and the accelerator pedal is pressed, the vehicle moves forward or backward. During deceleration, the motors conduct various regenerative operations according to the settings.

Its signal range can be adjusted by using the console. The controller uses this signal as continuous input data. Accelerator signal is a torque demand data.

When the vehicle is running, the steering pump motor rotates at 700 to 800 rpm.

Motor torque is determined by accelerator signal and vehicle speed.

Operating a hydraulic lever activates the pump motor and provides hydraulic power.

Power selection can be selected by using the console. Current rise rate can be adjusted by using console.

The controller monitors operating conditions. When an abnormality occurs, the display unit indicates an error code and activates an appropriate fail-safe function. The error code is stored in the controller memory; the combination display indicates the error code.

(2) Truck mode

The truck mode can be selected from Power Mode (Mode B) and Economy Mode (Mode A) by using the console. Each Mode has preset values for drive speed, acceleration, lift speed, tilt speed, and regen brake. For reference, performance changes of 1.5 ton class are shown below.

In the weakening region, the speed of the motor can be reduced by increasing the flux. Consequently EMF will be increased and current direction will be in the opposite direction, so the battery is charged by the dynamic energy of the vehicle.

Regeneration System Basic theory The Electro Motive Force (EMF) on the rotor of a Separately Excited Machine motor (SEM motor) is proportional to the rotating speed of the rotor and to the flux generated by the field current. Rotating speed is dependent on truck speed and field current which can be changed by the controller.

This condition happens during deceleration when the accelerator pedal is depressed from 100% to 70%. At 70%, the speed reaches o its nominal speed and the system comes out from the weakening region. Nominal speed means the motor speed at nominal flux and at nominal voltage (equal to the battery voltage).

During traction, the Maximum EMF is equal to or less than the ones applied to the rotor current. Some rotor current losses are due to external cables, bad connections and brushes. Under the same flux volume, the rotating speed will decrease when motor torque become high and the rotating speed will reach the maximum value with zero rotor current.

Once the motor reaches nominal speed, more braking is needed (Ex. Accelerator pedal is completely released), the controller should reduce the applied voltage to the rotor from 100% down to 0%. As soon as the rotor is short-circuited, the EMF will be equal to 0 and the rotation speed will be zero (or almost equal to zero). By reducing the applied voltage to the rotor, the controller should turn ON the drive MOSFET (minus battery side) and turn off the brake MOSFET (plus battery side) with the high time ratio (the two changing conditions are written below respectively). The direction of the motor current during this phase is shown in Fig. 1 and 2 where the current into the motor is in the opposite direction to the traction current direction (battery plus to minus).

When the motor is raced at high speed, the EMF will be higher than the applied voltage. Resulting in the rotor current flowing in the opposite direction. In this condition, the motor will brake automatically and recharge the battery. SEM motor is able to transform its function between motor and generator (brake); behavior will depend on the ratio between the required speed and the real motor speed.

It follows two different conditions:

At the right load condition, the speed of the motor can be increased automatically with reducing the flux. This working condition is called the weakening region.

During regenerative condition, the rotor current runs out rapidly and should be incremented by changing to the short-circuit condition (during the short-circuit condition the rotor current increases rapidly by EMF). The inductance of the system gives the necessary inertia for the flow of constant current.

Brake MOSFET ON

2) Short circuit condition: The current flows through the rotor via the closed brake MOSFET.

When the vehicle is on a downward grade with the key switch ON and running over maximum speed, then regeneration is activated.

(1) Lever regeneration

When the direction lever is shifted into the position opposite to the vehicle's traveling direction, the regeneration function is activated. The amount of regeneration is determined by the truck speed and the accelerator position.

Hydraulic System

The regenerative characteristic can be selected by using the console. The degree of acceleration serves as the parameter. The harder the accelerator pedal is pressed, the amount of regeneration increases.

When the hydraulic lever is operated, the pump motor rotates. The motor is driven by a specified chopping rate.

The regeneration function is activated until the vehicle stops.

(1) Lift speed

When the lift lever is operated, the lift analog signal changes continuously.

The maximum current of regeneration must be less than the powering current.

Lift potentiometer is the stroke sensor.

(2) Neutral regeneration

In the operating condition, lift signal range is from 1 V to 4 V.

When the direction lever is shifted into the neutral position, the regeneration function is activated.

Signal range data can be adjusted by using the console.

The regenerative characteristic can be selected by using the console.

The controller uses this signal for continuous input data.

The regeneration function is activated until the vehicle stops.

(2) Tilt speed

The maximum current of regeneration must be less than the powering current.

Tilt speed is set by the controller. This function cannot be adjusted by using the console.

(3) Accel regeneration (auto regeneration)

(3) Attachment 1 speed, attachment 2 speed

When the direction lever position is the same as the vehicle's traveling direction and the accelerator is released, then the regeneration function is activated.

The attachment speed function is set by a priority for each attachment. These functions can be adjusted by using the console.

The regeneration character is determined by auto regenerative characteristics and can be selected by using the console. The maximum current of regeneration must be less than the powering current.

(4) Priority

When two or more levers are operated at the same time, the following priority order is effective. Tilt lever (high priority), Attachment 1 lever, Attachment 2 lever, lift lever (low priority)

The regeneration function is activated until the vehicle stops. (4) Anti roll-back

When the vehicle runs with the key switch ON and the accelerator position is in neutral, then regeneration is activated.
