Battery Safety T-code

000

Battery Safety WARNING As a battery is being charged, an explosive gas mixture forms within and around each cell. If the area is not properly ventilated, this explosive gas can remain in or around the battery for several hours after charging. Be sure there are no open flames or sparks in the charging area. An open flame or spark can ignite this gas, resulting in serious damage or injury. WARNING Battery electrolyte is a solution of sulfuric acid and water. Battery acid causes burns. Should any electrolyte come in contact with clothing or skin, flush the area immediately with cold water. Should the solution get on the face or in the eyes, flush the area with cold water and receive medical attention immediately. Read, understand and follow procedures, recommendations and specifications in the battery and battery charger manuals from the manufacturer.

PT Static Safety Version no

T-code

000

Static Safety Electronic circuit board and devices used on the truck can be damaged by the discharge of static electricity, called electrostatic discharge. Static charges can accumulate from normal operation of truck as well as movement or contact between non-conductive materials such as; plastic bags, synthetic clothing, synthetic soles on shoes, styrofoam coffee cups, etc. Accumulated static can be discharged through human skin to a circuit board or component by touching the parts. Static discharge is also possible through the air when a charged object is placed close to another surface at a different electrical potential. Static discharge can occur without seeing or feeling it. Whenever working on or near static-sensitive electronics, always use static discharge precautions. 1. Place a static discharge wrist strap around the wrist. Connect the ground lead to the wrist strap connector. 2. Connect the ground clamp to an unpainted, ground surface on the truck frame. 3. If removing or installing static-sensitive components, place them on a properly grounded static mat. 4. To transport static-sensitive components, including failed components being returned, place the components in an antistatic bag or box. The wrist strap and associated accessories should be tested monthly to verify they are working properly. A defective static discharge wrist band will not alert that it is bad.

1. Introduction Threaded fasteners such as bolts, nuts, cap screws, and studs are made to specifications that describe the mechanical strength and hardness of the fastener. A fastener used in a design application is selected in accordance with its specifications. Parts used on this truck are purchased from many countries. Many fasteners are similar but cannot be used as direct replacements. Service persons must use replacement fasteners that have the same specifications. Fasteners made to each specification have identification marks for that specification. This specification is commonly called “grade” for SAE standards and “property” for metric standards. This section describes identification of some common fasteners. The metric system used is described as SI (International System of Units, also called SI in all languages). The SI system of measurement is described in ISO Standard 1000, 1973.

2. Nomenclature, Threads The thread design is specified by a series of numbers and letters for inch and metric fasteners (see figure below). The shank diameter of fastener is shown first in the series, e.g. M12=12 mm, M20=20 mm (1/2=1/2 inch, 3/4=3/4 inch).

The number of threads per inch is normally not shown for inch nomenclature and only UNC (Unified National Coarse) or UNF (Unified National Fine) is shown. This number of threads per inch is not shown because an UNC or UNF fastener has a standard number of threads per inch for a specific diameter. The length of a shank is often indicated as part of the description of a fastener. This length is shown in inches for inch fasteners and in millimeters for metric fasteners. A cap screw will have the following description:

3. Strength Identification The most common property classes for metric fasteners are 8.8 and 10.9. The property class is marked with a number on the head of the cap screw or on a nut. Property classes less then 8.8 are often not marked. Grades for inch bolts go from 2 to 8. Grade 2 fasteners normally do not have marks. The following tables show marks that identify grades and property classes for different fasteners. WARNING When fasteners must be replaced new fasteners must be of same strength or greater than original fasteners. The new fasteners must also be the correct size. NOTE!

Master Service Manual

Identification marks are according to bolt strength. The higher the number, or increase in number of marks, indicates increased bolt strength.

2. Planned Maintenance Procedures This section describes how to perform the services listed in the Schedule of Planned Maintenance Operations. As with the “Schedule”, this section is subdivided into service intervals.

2.1. Services Performed Daily or Every 8 Operating Hours Daily inspection is to be made by the operator prior to each operating shift. It is the responsibility of the operator to report any defects to the proper authorities. The truck should not be operated until it has been inspected and repaired by a trained, qualified, and authorized technician. The operator is ultimately responsible for the safe operation of the truck. 2.1.1. Battery Discharge Indicator with lift interrupt (optional) The battery guard indicates the current charge status of the truck battery. 1

Full charge battery

1/2

Half charged battery

0

Discharged battery

The battery guard has an integrated cut-out function that cuts out the truck lift function when a predetermined charge level has been reached. This prevents overloading the battery and increases the operating economy of the truck. When the battery has reached a charge level equivalent to 70 percent discharge, a warning signal is given via flashing lights. A further 10 percent of the battery capacity can then be used before the battery guard cuts out the lift function. 2.1.2. Hydraulic System Inspect the entire truck for leaks, especially around the hydraulic pump assembly and lift cylinder. Any sign of oil on the floor under the truck is an indication that the truck may be leaking hydraulic oil or transmission fluid. Report any problems to the proper authorities. DO NOT operate the truck until it has been inspected and repaired by a trained, qualified, and authorized technician.

2.1.3. Frame/Sheet Metal Inspect the truck for loose, damaged or missing parts. All shields must be in place and functional. Report any problems to the proper authorities. DO NOT operate the truck until it has been inspected and repaired by a trained, qualified, and authorized technician. 2.1.4. Wheels/Tires Inspect wheels and tires for wear and damage. Trash that is wrapped around the wheels and axles will cause premature tire wear and bearing damage. The floors should be kept clear of trash to prevent damage to the wheels and tires. Apply lubricant through grease fitting to lubricate grease load wheel bearings. Remove cover and apply lubricant in frame opening to grease fitting to lubricate caster assembly. 2.1.5. Functions/Operations Test truck for proper operation of all functions including travel controls, lift and lower functions, brakes and emergency disconnect button. Safety devices must be operational. Report any problems to the proper authorities. DO NOT operate the truck until it has been inspected and repaired by a trained, qualified, and authorized technician.

2.2. Services Performed Monthly or Every 120 Operating Hours The monthly planned maintenance service should be performed by a trained, qualified, and authorized technician 2.2.1. Inspection All services and inspections listed above for the daily inspection should be performed at this time. The inspection procedure should be more thorough, and minor deficiencies should be corrected. 2.2.2. Transmission Check transmission fluid level. The level check point is a plug on the side cover of the transmission about 4 inches (102 mm) above the bottom of the transmission case. Remove plug and inspect the level of the fluid inside the transmission case. The fluid level should come to about 0.375 inch (10 mm) below the plug and should never be above the level of the plug. 2.2.3. Brakes Truck at full speed with rated load must stop in its own length. The brakes should be fully released when the control handle is moved down 12 degrees from the fully raised position and should apply at 28 degrees above the fully lowered position. Adjust the brake linkage as required. 2.2.4. Battery Contact your battery dealer for specific instructions on care and maintenance of the battery. An average battery will have a specific gravity of 1.170 at the 80 percent discharged level. However, there are many different batteries on the market. Only the battery manufacturer can accurately determine the fully charged and 80 percent charged levels. Contact the battery manufacturer for this information.

2.2.5. Electrical Connections All electrical connections should be clean and tight. Plug-in connectors should be unplugged and plugged back in to clean the terminals. If the truck is equipped with any of the cold-storage use or corrosive environment application packages, the di-electric compound in the plug-in connectors should be renewed. 2.2.6. Main Contactor With a voltmeter, check to make sure main contactor has not welded close. Replace contactor if welded close. 2.2.7. Motor Brushes Inspect the drive and pump motors for brush wear and condition of the commutator. For minimum brush lengths see page 47. It is recommended that the brushes be replaced if the brush spring is within 0.0625 inch (1.59 mm) of touching the brush holder. 2.2.8. Drive Motor Blow out the drive motor fan and vents. Check for any signs of oil on the drive motor air vents. Check for any damage to the air vents. WARNING Compressed air used for cleaning MUST be reduced to less than 30 psi (206 kPa) and then only with effective chip-guarding and personal protective equipment worn. 2.2.9. Hydraulic Reservoir Check the fluid level in the hydraulic reservoir.

2.2.10. Frame Lube The pressure type grease fittings (zerk fittings) should be lubricated with grease (see page 72). The total number of grease fittings depends on truck options when built (see page 72). Cold-storage use application package will have more grease fittings than a standard truck. Look for fittings on the load wheel axles. Regular grease fittings are found on the transmission pivot bearings. 2.2.11. Pivot Points There are other pivot points and items that need to be lubricated but do not have grease fittings. These include, but are not limited to, the control handle mounting shaft. Lubricate non-greasable wear points with a drip oil can using 10 weight machine oil.

2.4. Services Performed Annually or Every 1440 Operating Hours The annual planned maintenance service will take a longer period of time to complete than does the monthly service. This would be a good time to arrange other repairs that have been noted on the monthly service. 2.4.1. Inspection All services and inspections listed for the daily and monthly inspection should be performed at this time. The inspection procedure should be more thorough and minor deficiencies should be corrected. 2.4.2. Transmission The transmission fluid should be drained once a year. The drain port is located on the lower portion of the side cover opposite the drive tire. Remove bolt to drain transmission fluid. Flush transmission case. Pour a cleaning solution into the fill port accessed from the battery compartment. With the drive tire off the floor, allow solution to run out of drain port while transmission is running. Stop flushing when the solution runs clean. Allow the solution to drain well before replacing drain plug. Replace drain plug bolt. Refill transmission with proper clean oil before operating truck. 2.4.3. Battery At approximately 1500 hours, contact an authorized battery dealer to determine the overall condition of the battery. Determine if the battery needs to be washed down. This can only be done by properly trained, qualified, and authorized technician.

2.4.4. Hydraulic System The hydraulic system should be drained, flushed and refilled, and the pressure relief valve setting should be checked and adjusted. WARNING Before siphoning oil from reservoir, make certain siphon is clean. To drain reservoir, remove reservoir filter assembly. Siphon oil from reservoir and purge oil out of the hydraulic system. Fill reservoir with proper clean oil. Operate the raise and lower function several times to purge air from the system. Check oil level. Put rated truck capacity load on forks and adjust pressure relieve valve, if necessary, so that the truck will lift rated load. 2.4.5. Brakes Follow procedures for brake removal before inspecting. Remove brake assembly and inspect friction disc for wear. The friction disc should be replaced once thickness is 0.25 inch (6 mm) or less. The armature and magnetic coil should be adjusted if truck will not meet stopping and holding specifications. The air gap should not exceed 0.018 inch (0.46 mm) and should remain within 0.003 inch (0.076 mm) throughout the circumference.

Driver Controls The truck is controlled by the operator with 180 degree steering angle. The steering control handle is used to provide hand brake, direction, speed, and horn on the truck. The brake is activated mechanically by the steering control handle/brake control. Rotating control in the forward and rearward direction will select the direction of travel. A thumb control and optional picking knob for speed and direction control is equipped on the truck. Speed is controlled based on the position of the directional controls lever. The horn sounds as long as the button is pressed. The fork raise switch activates a contactor to start the pump motor with lifting.

Motor Maintenance Schedule/ Troubleshooting 1. General Information A routine maintenance schedule with recorded findings is the best way to reduce costly shut-downs and repair of equipment during operating hours. The goal of any maintenance program for long-life and trouble-free operations is related to the time spent making inspections and correcting minor problems as they occur. The key to planned maintenance of the brush and commutator is recognizing the undesirable brush and commutator conditions. If this is done, corrective action can be taken before a major component is damaged beyond serviceability. The brushes and commutator should be inspected for even wear and good commutation.

2. Operating Conditions Operating environment of lift truck motors varies widely. The following recommendations should be applied as actual conditions dictate: Normal Service:

Basically an eight hour day of indoor material handling

Severe Service:

Extended operating hours, or constant usage

Extreme Service:

Chemical processing Freezer operation Processing plants (poultry, meat)

2.1. Disassembly 1. Remove pump motor from truck (see page 97). 2. Remove commutator end cover. 3. Use a brush hook to reach into the motor and lift the brush springs. Pull the brushes out of the brush holders. Either position the brushes outside the motor or remove the brush retaining screws, and remove the brushes from the motor. 4. Scribe or center punch locating marks in the end head and frame. Although locating marks are not always necessary, they can save time when the motor does not have locating pins. 5. Remove commutator end head retaining screws. Most motors have a slip fit bearing at the commutator end, and the end head can be removed with very little trouble. On motors that have a shaft extension on both ends of the armature, the attachment on the commutator end of the shaft must be removed before the end head can be separated from the motor. 6. Remove the drive end head retaining screws if necessary. Some smaller pump motors retain the drive end head with the motor through bolts. Separate the armature (3) and commutator end (5) as an assembly from the frame and field coil assembly. CAUTION Use caution, and DO NOT damage the armature during removal. If the shaft, coupling, or spline is damaged when removing the end head, the armature or the drive spline has to be replaced. 7. Separate the armature (3) from commutator end (5). This operation is usually done by pressing the armature out of the commutator end bearing. On some of the larger motors, the end head and bearing will have to be removed with a puller. When a puller is used, protect the end of the armature shaft with a nut or a thick flat washer.

8. Separate the bearing from the end head. On larger motors, the bearing is retained with a snap ring. Remove the snap ring and press the bearing out of the end head.

3. Inspection and Troubleshooting After the motor components have been thoroughly cleaned and dried, they should be inspected for the following:

3.1. Drive End Head 1. Check bearing recess for any signs of wear. 2. Check mounting holes for any stripped or crossed threads or broken studs.

3.2. Commutator End Head 1. Check bearing recess for any signs of wear. 2. Check brush holder insulation for cracks or any signs of burning. 3. Check brush holders and springs for wear.

3.3. Bearings 1. Check bearings by turning them with your fingers. Feel for binding or gritty effects and excessive looseness or wobble. A good bearing should also have a small amount of drag or stiffness caused by the lubrication but should turn smoothly. If the bearing turns very freely, it should be replaced. Bearings should also be changed, if worn out, damaged or removed from armature shaft. 2. Ball bearings that have been pulled off a shaft, pressed out of end head, or side loaded in such a way as to apply pressure on the balls and races must be replaced. Although the bearing may appear or feel good, the bearing races have been

brinelled and will fail within a relatively short period of service.

4. Brush Inspection When the performance of the motor changes, it must be immediately inspected. One of the most common reasons for trouble is from some form of malfunction in the area of the brushes, resulting in arcing. Brushes can be worn out or stuck in their brush holders. In either case an insufficient electrical contact between brushes and commutator can lead to damage of the commutator surface.

4.1. Brush Replacement Determination Pump motor manufacture guarantees the motors for at least 50,000 cycles (S3 duty cycle at nominal power). More than 200,000 cycles may be experienced at the same ratings. Service is recommended after 50,000 cycles. At this time all brushes should be replaced if the following appear: 1. Any brush can not move freely in its brush holder. To establish this the brush carrier must be removed from the brush rigging. The force of the brush spring should push the brush as far out of the carrier as it is allowed by the cable. 2. Any brush is at the end of it useful length. The length of the brushes should never fall below 0.28 inch (7 mm) (length of new brush is 0.699 inch (17 mm). An alternative method to measure the length of the brush is to measure the difference between the cable wire and the end of the slot in the brush holder. This should be at least 0.039 inch (1 mm). If this measurement is slightly greater than this dimension, it is recommended that the brushes be replaced because the remaining life of the used brush may be less than the time to the next inspection.

SCREW TERMINAL NUTS REAR BRACKET

1. Stand motor on the drive end. 2. Release terminal nuts. 3. Remove rear bracket. Terminals should stay in position. If terminals remain located in the rear casting, a gentle blow will release them. 4. Disconnect all four brushes by loosening screws. Push each brush assembly towards the commutator. Remove it from the brush rigging. 5. Replace old brush assembly with new. To avoid confusion, it is recommended that each brush be changed in order. Make sure each brush assembly is replaced with the correct part that has the brush cable on the same side. Service kits consists of two matching pairs of brush assemblies.

2.1. Motor Disassembly 1. Remove drive motor from truck (see page 106). 2. Remove head band from commutator end of motor, if equipped. 3. Use a brush hook to reach into the motor and lift the brush springs. Pull the brush assembly out of the brush holders. Either position brush assembly outside the motor or remove brush from the motor. 4. Scribe or center punch locating marks in the end head and frame. Although locating marks are not always necessary, they can save time when the motor does not have locating pins. 5. Remove commutator end head retaining screws. Most motors have a slip fit bearing at the commutator end, and end head can be easily removed. 6. Remove drive end head retaining screws if necessary. Separate armature and drive end head as an assembly from the frame and field oil assembly. CAUTION Use caution and DO NOT damage armature during removal. If shaft, coupling, or spline is damaged when removing the drive end head, the armature or the drive spline must be replaced. 7. Separate armature from the drive end head, by pressing the armature out of the drive end bearing. Remove bearing with a puller, protecting the end of the armature shaft with a nut or a thick flat washer. 8. Separate bearing from drive end head. Press the bearing out of the end head. Remove retaining ring from bearing. 9. After the motor has been separated into all its major subassemblies, the components should be cleaned and inspected for wear or damage.

3. Motor Inspection A good planned maintenance program will save many hours of future “down time” on a truck. Maintenance schedule should consist of periodic routine inspections of motors, battery and wiring circuitry.

3.1. External Motor Routine motor inspection should include the following: 1. Check for clean, tight terminal studs and mounting bolts. 2. Cooling holes must be kept free of any debris or restriction, which would prevent proper airflow and hamper cooling. 3. Internal and external spline drives must be periodically lubricated in accordance with the original manufacturer’s recommendation. 4. Check for any sign of oil leaks. 5. Make visual inspection of brush and commutation area. Headband, if equipped, should be removed for clear, proper viewing.

3.2. Brush and Commutator An important part of any planned maintenance schedule is the brush and commutator inspection. By recognizing undesirable commutator and/or brush conditions, corrective action can be taken before a major component is damaged beyond serviceability. Brush and commutator inspection can usually be accomplished by removing the cover band (if equipped) from the commutator end of the motor. The brushes and commutator should be inspected for even wear and good commutation. Good commutation will be indicated by a dark brownish, polished commutator and an evenly polished brush wearing surface. If the commutator appears rough, pitted, scored or has signs of burning or heavy arcing between the commutator bars, the motor should be removed for servicing.

For a detailed inspection of the commutator, the motor should be disassembled. With the armature supported on both bearing journals, check run-out of commutator with a dial gauge. Total indicated run-out should not exceed 0.003 inch (0.0762 mm) or 0.001 inch (0.0254 mm) bar to bar. If the readings fall outside this limit, commutator must be turned and reundercut. After the commutator has been undercut, the armature should be placed in a lathe and the commutator lightly sanded with No. 00 sandpaper. This will remove any burrs left from the undercutting operation. Clean commutator with dry compressed air and recheck commutator run-out. mica

segments

GOOD UNDERCUT 0.04 inch deep mica segments mica segments

BAD UNDERCUT Brushes should be inspected for uneven wear and signs of overheating such as discolored brush shunts and brush springs. See “Table 1. Unsatisfactory Brush Performance” on page 91. Check the brush holders for physical damage and make sure they are not loose on the end head or the brush holder plate. Check the brush springs for correct alignment on the brush. A brush spring that does not apply equal pressure on the center of the brush will cause the brush to wear unevenly. Check for correct clearance and freedom of brush movement in the holder. If any of the brushes are worn to the point that replacement is necessary, the complete brush set should be replaced. Do not replace just one or two brushes. When brush service is required on the motor, lift brush spring over holding bracket before removing brush.

Put Spring In This Position For Brush Removal

Do not substitute brushes. The brushes are matched to the motor type and application to provide the best service. Substituting brushes of the wrong grade can cause commutator damage or excessive brush wear. WARNING Compressed air used for cleaning MUST be reduced to less than 30 psi (206 kPa) and then only with effective chip-guarding and personal protective equipment worn. NOTE!

Blow stone dust out with dry compressed air.

After the installation of new brushes, the motor should be bench tested at 12 Volts, no load and brushes seated to the commutator with a dressing stone. Remove stone dust. Minimum commutator diameter before armature needs to be replaced is specified on the original manufacturer’s test specification.

3.3. Bearings After the motor has been disassembled, it is recommended that new bearings be installed. Bearings may have been damaged during removal. Although the bearings may appear and feel good, the bearing races could be brinelled and fail within a relatively short period of service.

3.4. Armature Electrical Check Before the armature is reassembled into the motor, the following test should be performed. 1. Check armature for grounded circuits by placing one test lead of a Dielectric Breakdown Tester on the commutator and the other lead at the armature shaft. If the test light comes on, the armature is grounded. 2. For short circuit connection, one armature is tested on a growler using a hacksaw plate to locate any shorted windings. 3. All motor armatures are wave wound and can be short circuit tested. For helpful maintenance guides for proper servicing of motors, see page 68.

3.5. Frame and Field Service Recommendation Motors disassembled for servicing should also include a complete inspection of the frame and field assembly. It is not uncommon that the frame and field of a motor becomes exceptionally dirty after many hours of operation. This may result in a grounding condition due to dirt, grease and other foreign materials. In this case it is recommended to clean the complete frame and field in a cleaning solution. After cleaning, the frame and field must be oven-cured for one hour at 300°F (148°C). Add a coat of water soluble class H type of varnish for proper insulation protection. A similar air-dry varnish may also be used providing it has a Class H thermal specification.

If new field coils are installed the cross-over connection should be brazed for a good sound connection and to prevent breakage due to vibration. It is not recommended that connections be soldered. Motor terminals should be torqued to 140 inch-lbs (15.82 N•m). Pole piece screws should be torqued to 250-300 inch-lbs (28-33 N•m). NOTE!

Do not use a torch for the crossover connection. The insulation of the field coils will be easily damaged by this method.

A high capacity resistance power unit with a plier-type handpiece may be used for brazing field connections.

Transmission 1. System Description This transmission is of the double reduction gear type. The gears are a combination of helical and straight cut gears for strength and low noise. The final drive gear is mounted on opposing tapered roller bearings. The intermediate gear is mounted on ball bearings. Gears and bearings are enclosed in an oil filled case. The drive motor is mounted externally with the drive motor pinion gear mounted on the armature shaft. The brakes are on the drive motor. Technical data Gear Ratio Oil Type Oil Capacity Drive Tire Size

22:1 SAE80 1½ pints (0.709 liter) 10.5 inch x 5 inch x 6.5 inch (267 mm x 127 mm x 165 mm)

2. Troubleshooting Because of the uncomplicated nature of the transmission, troubleshooting is limited to identifying whether problems are mechanical or electrical in nature. Fluid leaks are obviously mechanical in nature and can be found by visual inspection. Unusual noise and/or slow running could be mechanical or electrical in nature. Generally speaking, if the problem is caused internally in the transmission, then metal contamination will be evident in the oil. If there is a mechanical problem outside of the transmission, then it will become evident by inspecting the drive motor and brakes.

1. Brake Theory of Operation The brake is of a spring-applied and mechanically-released design. The brake has a drum that is mounted on the drive motor armature shaft. This design gives excellent braking and long life since the drum and shoes are protected from dirt and other abrasive materials. Braking is accomplished by a spring on a cam arm. The cam forces the brake shoes against brake drum. This action clamps the brake shoes against the drum and provides braking any time the handle is in the static position (fully raised or lowered). When the brake is released, the cam arm forces the cam to rotate to the neutral position. Springs on the brake shoes pull the brake shoes away from brake drum. This releases the brake and allows the drum to turn with the drive motor armature shaft.

Fully raise control handle. Remove brake spring, allowing the brakes to release. Remove clevis pin from yoke assembly. 4. Lower the control handle to the operating position so brake linkage is on top of operating cam. 5. Adjust clevis so pin goes in the brake cam arm. Install pin. 6. Install spring and test braking ability. Truck at full speed with rated load must stop in its own length. If brakes are inadequate, then shorten the linkage on clevis to get adequate braking. 7. Install brake cover above drive tire. 8. The brake drum may be removed and the operating cam arm moved one “spline tooth” to compensate for brake shoe wear.

3. Tire Pressing Procedure 1. Check the inside surface of metal insert on new tire. Remove any scaling or rust with sandpaper. Clean the inside of metal insert and lubricate with a soapy solution. Outside of Hub and Tire Assembly New Tire Worn Tire

Circular Ram Press Table

2. Place a circular ram on a press table. The length of ram must be longer than the width of old tire to allow complete removal of the old tire. The outside diameter of ram must be small enough to fit loosely in the insert of tire, but large enough to rest squarely on the flat surface on the outer edge of the hub. 3. If the outside edge of hub is not flush with the edge of the metal insert in old tire, measure how far hub is recessed inside the tire. The new tire must be placed in the same position the old tire was installed on the hub. Use a spacer (slightly smaller in diameter than the inside diameter of tire insert and the same thickness as the depth of the recess) to obtain proper amount of recession. 4. Position hub assembly with old tire on top of circular ram so the outside of the wheel is positioned upward. The outside edge of hub has a chamfer to help guide the new tire onto the wheel. The chamfered edge must always be the leading edge when a tire is pressed onto hub. 5. Center hub assembly on top of ram and make sure they mate squarely. 6. Position new tire with its chamfered insert facing hub. Align new tire and hub so they are concentric.

CAUTION Any misalignment of tire and hub while tire is being pressed onto hub can cause damage to hub. For this reason, chamfers have been provided on the outside edge of hub and on the end of the inside diameter of tire’s metal insert. The chamfers help to center the hub and tire during the pressing operation and reduce the possibility of misalignment. To prevent damage, the hub must be installed on circular ram with its chamfered side up. NOTE!

If new tire does not press on with a minimum of 5 tons (4535 kg) force, replace hub.

7. Begin pressing new tire onto hub and old tire off hub. Run press slowly for the first few inches of travel, because this is the critical stage of the operation. If tire begins to cock to one side, stop press and realign tire. A sharp jar with a softheaded mallet will usually realign tire on hub. 8. Release the press. Remove wheel, tire assembly, and old tire from the press table. Inspect wheel and tire assembly. 9. Install wheel assembly following the procedure for the specific type of wheel.

1. Maintenance and Adjustments Normal maintenance of the truck frame consists of lubricating the casters periodically (see “Planned Maintenance Schedule” on page 59). If optional lube or cold storage package has not been fitted on the truck during production, lubricate by dripping 10 weight machine oil onto pivot points to soak into bushings. In a wet or corrosive environment it is necessary to reduce time between planned maintenance intervals.

1.1. Caster Adjustment 1. Loosen nut (3) and set screws (2). New free length is 6.45 inch (164 mm)

2. Tighten cap screw (7) until they contact the cap (9), then tighten to get spring compression.

2. Troubleshooting Worn free length is 6.00 inch (152 mm) or less

Very little troubleshooting is necessary on frame assembly. Most faults can be found by visual inspection. These usually are evidenced by hard steering or loss of traction.

2.1. Stabilizing Caster 2.1.1. Caster Replacement WARNING Risk of injury. Spring pressure is under spring base when unbolted spring base may fly free and cause an injury or possibly death. Release spring tension before removing spring base mounting bolts. CAUTION Spring tension does still exist. NOTE!

Replace caster wheel when caster spring can no longer be adjusted.

1. Release spring tension before removing spring base mounting bolts.

1.8. Reversing/Motor Brake Forks Trailing Direction to Forks First Direction S16 returns to open position before S15 closes.

1.9. Reverser switch Possible breaks in the wiring for the reverser switch is continuously checked by the transistor controller. It sends a small pulsed current through the circuit from J1-13 wire number 11A, S20, wire number 11B and J1-10. When S20 is activated J1-13 becomes positive. A1 now interrupts the inputs at J1-12, at the same time it provides a positive at J1-11. The motor will now be connected for motor braking at a maximum current limit 200 amp, and subsequently accelerate in forks first direction until S20 returns to its neutral position. When S20 returns to the neutral position, positive disappears from J1-11 and the truck will stop. In order to be able to start again if S16 is still activated, the transistor controller must be returned to the inactive position. This is accomplished by letting the speed potentiometer return to the neutral position, after which a new direction of travel can be chosen.

1.10. Lifting Forks The micro switch S34 closes. K30 receives positive voltage through wire number 5, lift limit switch, wire number 17. Negative returns through wire number 13. K30 closes and the pump motor M3 starts.

1.11. Lowering Forks When the micro switch S41 closes, the lower valve Y10 receives voltage through wire number 4. Negative returns through wire number 13. Y10 energizes and forks lower.

3. Battery Maintenance The following information does not supercede or replace information supplied by the battery and battery charger manufacturer. Read, understand, and follow the procedures in the manual supplied with the battery and battery charger. Notify your supervisor if there are any concerns or questions regarding battery safety or procedures.

3.1. Battery Inspection and Care NOTE!

Read, understand, and follow procedures, recommendations, and specifications in the battery and battery charger manufacturer’s manuals.

Batteries in industrial trucks pick up various kinds of dirt and dust depending on their surroundings and the types of material handled. If cells are overfilled and electrolyte collects on the covers, the following occurs: 1. The top of the battery becomes wet and stays wet, since the acid in the electrolyte does not evaporate. 2. This moist surface, in combination with certain kinds of dirt, becomes electrically conductive and permits stray currents to flow externally over the top of the battery. This degrades battery performance and truck operation. 3. The acid also causes corrosion of cell posts, nuts, connectors and the steel battery case. When inspecting batteries, check the following: 1. Wet covers can indicate overfilling, leaky seals at posts, or excessive gassing during charge. If covers are wet, determine the cause and correct the problem. 2. Make sure batteries cannot move more than 0.5 inch (12 mm) in any horizontal direction. Shim or block to restrain them.

3.2. Battery Exterior Cleaning Refer to recommended battery manufacturer’s guidelines for details.

3.3. Charging OSHA regulations require that battery charging installations be located in areas designated for that specific purpose. Such areas must provide for flushing and neutralizing spilled electrolyte, fire protection, protecting charging equipment from damage by trucks and adequate ventilation of fumes from gassing batteries. To charge a battery, direct current is passed through the battery cells in the direction opposite that of discharge. Charging time is 5% to 20% longer than discharge time.

Read, understand, and follow procedures, recommendations and specifications in the battery and battery charger manufacturer’s manuals.

CAUTION NEVER plug the battery charger into the truck. This will severely damage the truck’s electrical system. Plug the charger ONLY into the connector from the battery.

4. Storage Before storing battery, make sure the electrolyte is at the proper level in all the cells, the filler plugs are tight, and the battery is fully charged. Store battery in a clean, cool, dry location away from radiators and other sources of heat. Check electrolyte level and specific gravity every 30 days during storage. Whenever specific gravity is less than 1.230, charge the battery.

5. Battery History Record A battery record system is essential because battery failure can cause production slowdowns and increased battery operating costs. A properly supervised record system can detect and call attention to such operating irregularities as the following: • Overcharging • Undercharging • Over-discharging • Excessive water consumption • Excessive dirt and corrosion • Worn-out batteries • Excessive current consumption of trucks Records should be kept for each battery. Your battery supplier should be able to provide maintenance record sheets. Each report should contain the following: • Battery number, type, serial number, and service data • Specific gravity and voltage readings for each cell • Temperature of the air and electrolyte • Electrolyte • Amperes • Condition of connectors, covers, sealing compound and tray • General cleanliness • Number of total cycles • Average specific gravity drop • Watering frequency • User comments and observations 176

3. Troubleshooting The charger incorporates a very simple and reliable design which makes troubleshooting relatively easy. The repair procedure involves testing the output of the charger and then testing individual components. The test procedures follow a logical sequence of electrical flow through the circuit. Only standard hand tools and an AC/DC volt/ohm meter are required. A battery hydrometer is recommended. WARNING Before checking charger, disconnect AC power supply, unplug batteries, and discharge capacitor with an insulated screwdriver. All tests should be made with extreme caution when a test calls for the power to be “on” at the charger.

3.1. Electrical Testing 3.1.1. Equipment required: 1. Common hand tools. 2. AC/DC volt/ohm meter. 3. Battery connector with + to - loop (use on charger only). 4. Battery hydrometer. 3.1.2.

4. Testing components WARNING Before checking components disconnect AC power supply, unplug batteries, and discharge capacitor with an insulated screwdriver. All tests should be made with the charger disconnected unless otherwise stated. Use extreme caution when a test calls for the power to be “on” at the charger. a. Diodes (1) A quick test for shorted diodes may be made by connecting the leads of the ohmmeter to the charger battery connector terminals and testing for continuity in each direction. If the test shows open, the DC circuit breaker, may be open. To bypass an open DC circuit breaker, connect the test leads to the positive and negative lugs behind the circuit breaker and reverse the ohmmeter probes. A shorted diode will show continuity in both directions. Retest the diodes individually to determine which diode is faulty. (2) Disconnect the diode flexible leads to isolate the diodes from the circuit. (3) Use the ohmmeter to test the continuity of each diode in both directions. A shorted diode will show continuity in both directions and an open diode will show no continuity in either direction. A good diode will show continuity in only one direction. (4) Reconnect diode leads in charger. b. Capacitor (1) Discharge capacitor. (2) Disconnect capacitor leads. (3) Set ohmmeter R x 10,000 scale and connect ohmmeter leads to terminals on

capacitor. When needle (or display) quits moving, reverse leads. On a good capacitor, the needle will deflect to the right (low resistance) and then deflect back to the left (high resistance) each time the meter leads are reversed. On a shorted capacitor, the needle will deflect to the right (low resistance) and remain there. On an open capacitor, the needle will not deflect (stationary display). (4) Reconnect capacitor leads in the charger. (5) Set AC voltmeter on a scale to read at least 500 volts AC. Connect meter leads to the capacitor terminals. A shorted capacitor will indicate 0 volts AC. An open capacitor will indicate about 300 volts +/-20 volts AC. This is the same as the capacitor transformer winding voltage without a capacitor connected in circuit. (6) Turn on charger power. WARNING Before checking components, disconnect AC power supply, unplug batteries and discharge capacitor with insulated screwdriver. All tests should be made with the charger disconnected unless otherwise stated. Use extreme caution when a test calls for the power to be “on” at the charger. c. Timer The timer can be tested by rotating the timer knob clockwise to the one hour mark. With the AC power connected, the charger should turn off in one hour. 5. Overcharging problems Most complaints about charging problems can be remedied by following the above procedures. Overcharging problems may not be the fault of the charger. Often, overcharging is caused by faulty

batteries or poor connections. The following items should be checked to resolve problems of overcharging or failure of charging amps to taper down. a. Charger and battery not properly matched. Check specifications on both batteries and charger (see “Battery Charger, Optima Pack” on page 267). Battery pack (GNB or Optima) has been designed for a specific size and type of battery. If another battery has been installed, be certain that it is comparable to the original batteries. Automotive type batteries will not function properly in this application. b. Excessive battery temperatures suppressed battery voltage.

causing

Allow batteries to cool. c. Defective battery or poor DC connection. Check battery voltage while charger rate is controlled by the battery state of charge. This will adjust the output to the proper level if the battery is in good condition. If the voltage does not come up to finish rate, this may indicate a bad cell within a battery or a marginal DC connection between the battery and the charger. Carefully inspect the connections for excessive heat. Test the battery cell voltages and specific gravity.

3. Installation The cables to either half of connector have a lip on the forward end. This lip snaps over a spring-loaded retainer which is part of the connector. To remove a cable from connector, push retainer down while pulling battery cable towards the rear and out of the connector. NOTE!

Battery charger unintentionally connected to battery connector at chassis would lead to prevent premature, unwarrantable failure. Installation of spacer block onto battery connector would prevent a battery charger to truck connection.

1. Disconnect power supply to battery charger. 2. Attach spacer block to the topside of battery connector from the battery charger using two cap screws and two hex nuts. NOTE!

Verify spacer block is installed correctly by attempting to connect the battery charger connector to truck battery connector. If properly installed, the spacer block will not allow the battery charger connector to slide against chassis and will prevent a connection of battery charger and truck battery connector.

3. Reconnect supply to battery charger (see “Battery Charger, Optima Pack” on page 267).

When the battery is fully charged the LED to the right will light. As the battery discharges, LEDs to the right will stop glowing and show the current discharge level. When the battery is 70 percent discharged, the two LEDs from the left will flash alternately to warn the driver the battery should be recharged. When the battery is 80 percent discharged the last LED is lit and the relay is opened. 3.1.1. Discharge Adjustment The BC features an adjustable discharge setting. The setting designators K-U are at the rear of the gauge. The initial factory setting is N but will depend on the battery and truck type. The given settings are approximate and might need to be fine tuned to get a 100 percent correct lockout for a specific application. Battery Ah 180 210 240

The discharge adjustments can be made at any time during a working cycle before the lift lockout. Discharge potentiometer adjustments made late in a working cycle have little or no effect in delaying the lift lockout in the particular working cycle. Normally the discharge potentiometer adjustments are made before or at the beginning of a working cycle to effectively change the discharged profile of the working cycle. Once lift lockout does occur, the gauge must be reset before discharge potentiometer adjustments can have an effect.

3.2. Reset The instrument is supplied with a fixed reset voltage setting. This factory-set reset voltage brings the BC to full regardless of its previous level. The reset will be done when the battery has been charged to a voltage greater than 2.09 volts per cell and connected to the truck.

3.3. Key Switch The electronics of the BC and LCD of the hourmeter are energized as long as machine battery remains connected to gauge. The display of the BC is turned on and off by the key switch. 200 AMP Controllers The key switch also enables timing function of the hourmeter. With key switch ON, the hourmeter can be activated by connection number 6 at the rear of BC. With key switch OFF, the hourmeter will not respond to the connection number 6, and LCD of the hourmeter will be off.

3.4. Hourmeter Hourmeter operation is indicated by flashing of the hourglass icon on the face of LCD. The flash rate is 15 times a minute with a duty cycle of 3 seconds on and 1 second off. When the hourmeter is not in operation the icon is visible but does not flash.

4. Troubleshooting 4.1. Battery Discharge Indicator (BDI) 4.1.1. No Reset 1. Using the open circuit reset, the instrument must first have a break in power and then measure a voltage greater than 2.09 volts per cell across its pin 7 or 8 and pin 5. Verify leakage voltage is not present across terminals by disconnecting one of the lines supplying battery voltage to the instrument. Replace the connection and measure the voltage across the gauge at pin 7 or 8 and pin 5. The reading must be above 2.09 volts per cell or the gauge does not reset to indicate full charge and the instrument is defective. 2. Using the high voltage rest to reset, the instrument has two requirements to reset the instrument. The voltage across pin 7 or 8 and pin 5 must be above 2.35 volts per cell and must remain above this level for six minutes continuously. Measure voltage across the pins and verify it is greater than 2.35 volts per cell. Verify that it remains above this level for a minimum of six minutes. If the two conditions are met, and the instrument does not reset, it is defective. 4.1.2. Reset After Break in Power If voltage of the batteries to which the instrument is connected is below 2.09 volts per cell and the gauge was not formerly indicating full, it should not reset to full after a break in power or its memory cell is depleted. This will not affect the discharge function of the instrument if it is always connected 196

to a fully charged battery and allowed to track its discharge without a break in power. NOTE!

New instruments are shipped from the factory with a full reading in its memory. The first time the instrument is connected to the truck battery it will always show a full charge. It is either resetting to full because the battery is fully charged or if the battery is not fully charged it is repeating the information in its memory, which is a full reading (typical 10 year battery life).

4.1.3. No Discharge, Gauge Does Not Run Down The instrument monitors loaded battery values. When connected to a partially discharged battery, the gauge will not run down until it observes the loaded values of the battery are at or below gauge current state. A working time of at least 30 minutes is required for the gauge to run from full to empty. To verify the instrument will run down, measure across pin 7 or 8 and pin 5. A voltage less than 2.0 volts per cell is required to bring the gauge indication downwards from a full reading. 4.1.4. No Lockout The LED display must be alternately flashing the two leftmost red LEDs for lockout to occur. The J output functions like an SCR. At lockout, pins 3 and 4 will open as long as lift is inactive. To test this output proceed as follows: 1. Remove wire leading to pin 3 when at lockout. 2. Replace wire and then try to lift. If the lift ceases to operate the instrument is good, but there is a leakage current somewhere in the lift circuit. 3. Check across lift switch. After replacing wire, if lift operates, the instrument is defective.

4.1.5. No Lift Verify gauge is not at lockout with its two red LEDs alternately flash. The relay outputs should be closed above lockout and should read zero ohms with an ohmmeter across pins 3 and 4. If not at lockout, test lift switch and contactor. 4.1.6. Early Lockout It is very important the instrument is installed so its pins are reading the true battery voltage. Any voltage drops caused by long lines, switches, fuses, or poor connections will be seen by the instrument as a deeper discharged battery. 1. To check for voltage drops, use a voltmeter with its positive lead on the battery’s positive terminal and meter negative lead on pin 7 or 8 (whichever pin B+ is connected to). Load battery and record measurement. 2. Repeat procedure with voltmeter’s positive lead on pin 5 and its negative lead on battery negative terminal. Record voltage measured. 3. Add two voltage readings. This total should be less than 1 percent of the nominal battery voltage. Voltage higher than this will cause the instrument to calculate battery state-of-charge from incorrect readings. 4.1.7. LEDs Do Not Light The battery discharge indicator LEDs are illuminated by keyswitch, pin 2. Verify battery voltage is present across pin 2 and pin 5. If voltage is present and LEDs do not light, the instrument is defective.

On the 24/36 dual voltage unit used on 24 volt electrical system, the battery voltage is connected to pin number 5 labeled above “Power Pin 5”. For location of wiring see circuit diagrams on page 169 through page 171.

3. Battery Discharge Indicator (BDI) 3.1. General Information The BC measures the state of the battery. The charge is indicated on a column of ten LEDs. Right:

1 - fully charged battery

Left:

0 - empty battery

When the battery is fully charged, the LED to the right will be illuminated. As the battery discharges, LEDs to the right will stop glowing and show the current discharge level. When the battery is 80 percent discharged, the two LEDs from the left will flash alternately to warn the operator that the battery needs recharging.

3.2. Key Switch The electronics of the BDI and the LCD of the hourmeter are energized as long as the truck battery remains connected to the gauge. The display of the BDI is turned on and off by the key switch. 400 AMP Controllers Drive transistor controller enables timing function of the hourmeter, whenever there is current going to the drive motor. Also, timing function is enabled whenever S52 raise switch is closed.

4. Troubleshooting This section is separated into two parts: Battery Discharge Indicator and Hourmeter.

4.1. Battery Discharge Indicator (BDI) 4.1.1. No Reset There are two ways to reset the instrument. Using the open circuit to reset the instrument, it must first have a complete break in the power and then measure a voltage greater than 2.09 volts per cell across pin 5 and pin 2. Verify that a leakage voltage is not present across these terminals by disconnecting one of the lines supplying battery voltage to the instrument. NOTE!

Holding down the horn button for a few seconds will sometimes drop the charge in capacitors to zero volts and allow the instrument to reset when it reads 2.09 volts per cell or above.

Replace this connection and measure the voltage across the gauge at pins 5 and 2. It must be above 2.09 volts per cell before gauge will reset. If it is, and the gauge will not reset to indicate full charge, the instrument is defective. The second method of resetting the instrument is by using the high voltage reset. This reset function also has two requirements to reset the instrument. The voltage across pins 5 and 2 must be above 2.35 volts per cell and must remain above this level for six minutes continuously. Measure the voltage across these pins and verify that it is greater than 2.35 volts per cell. Also, verify that it remains above this level

for a minimum of six minutes. If the two conditions are met, and the instrument will not reset, it is defective. 4.1.2. Reset After Break in Power If the voltage of the batteries to which the instrument is connected is below 2.09 volts per cell, and the gauge was not formerly indicating full, it should not reset to full after a break in power. If it does, its memory cell is depleted. This will not affect the discharge function of the instrument if it is always connected to a fully charged battery and allowed to track its discharge without break in power. NOTE!

New instruments are shipped from the factory with a full reading in their memory. The first time the instrument is connected to the truck’s battery it will always show a full charge. It is either resetting to full because the battery is fully charged, or if the battery is not fully charged it is repeating the information in its memory which is a full reading (typical 10 year battery life).

4.1.3. No Discharge, Gauge Does Not Run Down The instrument monitors loaded battery values. When connected to a partially discharged battery, the gauge will not run down until it observes that the loaded values of the battery are at or below gauge current state.

1.1. Test/Inspection Examine switch for signs of arcing, overheating, discoloration, cracking, or other physical damage. Replace switch if necessary. To test switch, isolate it from the electrical circuit. Remove all connections from the switch, making sure all wires are labeled and identified for reconnection. Use an ohmmeter set to a low resistance scale to measure resistance across the switch. In a closed position, the switch should be less than 1 ohm. In an open position, switch should show a resistance greater than 10 megohms. With the battery connected, use a voltmeter to check for voltage on both the positive and negative side of the switch while in the closed position. The voltage must be the same on both sides of the switch. If not, the switch is defective.

Transistor Controller 1. Basics Of Circuit Operation The controller is a microprocessor based, programmable motor controller designed for separately excited motors. It is capable of four distinct operating modes or personalities and is programmer. In addition to programming the controller, it has diagnostic and test modes to display error codes and display the status of the controller's inputs and outputs. The controller includes an armature and a field. These both regulate the voltage and current applied to the motor according to a preprogrammed motor control algorithm. This motor control algorithm allows the user to select programmable speed and torque profiles that can be tailored to almost any material handling truck traction system. The polarity and magnitude of the field current is also controlled to provide solid state, contactor-less direction control and plug braking. The controller is energized by applying power to the key switch input, pin number 16. At that time, the controller is powered up and performs an internal self test. The controller becomes active by applying power to the brake input, pin number 15. At that time, the following start-up checks are performed:

Continuity in the field coil. (Occurs each time forward or reverse is selected.)

Throttle is below 25 percent.

Continuity in the emergency reverse wiring. (Controller applies a brief pulse from the emergency reverse check output, pin number 10. This pulse is read by the emergency reverse input, pin number 13. If the pulse is not present, there is

an open circuit and the controller is disabled. This check first occurs during power up and runs continuously whenever the controller is powered.) Selecting either forward or rearward will apply battery voltage to the respective input pin and select the direction of current flow in the field. Increasing throttle increases the voltage and current in the armature circuit. The field current will then follow a predetermined current map to match the armature current. In this manner, the motor is kept in its commutation range and arcing on the commutator is minimized. As the throttle is increased, and the motor speeds up the armature voltage will approach the battery maximum. If further increases in speed are commanded, the field will weaken automatically as directed by the field current map to provide the desired speed. Top speed is limited by confining the minimum allowable field current. Further top speed limiting can be obtained by limiting the maximum armature voltage through the MAX. SPEED Parameter. Plug braking involves reversing the travel control to the opposite direction without applying the brake causing the truck to decelerate smoothly. The operator may choose to continue holding the controls in the opposite direction. This will start the truck moving in that direction or the operator may release the handle and allow the truck to come to a complete halt. Releasing the steering control handle will allow the parking brake to become automatically applied. THE CONTROL HANDLE MUST NOT BE PLACED IN THE BRAKE POSITION DURING THE PLUG BRAKING OPERATION. When using plug braking the operator may regulate, within the programmed capabilities, the degree of the plugging force and distance travelled during plugging. For the lightest plugging force, and the longest distance, the travel control should be operated only to the creep position in the opposite direction. For the strongest plugging power, and the shortest distance, the travel control should be operated to full speed in the opposite direction. Plug braking may be regulated with the control handle at any point between the creep position and full speed.

2. Maintenance There are no serviceable parts inside the transistor controller. No attempt should be made to open the controller. OPENING THE CONTROLLER WILL VOID THE WARRANTY! It is recommended that the controller exterior be cleaned periodically. Cleaning the controller gives a good opportunity to check the controller’s diagnostic history file with the handheld terminal, if available. (See “Handset Operation” on page 269.)

2.1. Safety NOTE!

Risk of short circuits. Remove all watches and jewelry, and always use insulated tools.

The controller is essentially a high-power device. When working around any battery powered vehicle, proper safety precautions should be taken. These include, but not limited to: proper training; wearing eye protection; avoiding loose clothing; removing watches and jewelry; and using insulated wrenches.

2.2. Cleaning Although the controller requires virtually no maintenance if properly installed, the following is recommended on a regular basis of 360 hours. 1. Remove power by disconnecting the battery. 2. Discharge capacitors in the controller by connecting a load (such as a contactor coil or horn)

5. Troubleshooting Guidelines Troubleshooting can be broken down into two sections: (1) mechanical and (2) electrical circuits. Electrical circuits can be broken down into control circuit and power circuit. Many hours of troubleshooting time can be saved by knowing the exact operational symptoms. If the proper switch operates for the chosen direction and speed, the problem can be found in the controller or the power circuit of that function. Voltage tests are made with the negative lead of the voltmeter connected to battery negative if the negative lead is connected to a negative terminal on the electrical panel. First, verify the negative connection to the battery by touching the positive meter lead to the positive battery post. The battery voltage must be at least 25.2 volts for a 24 volt system. If the battery voltage is below 22 volts (no load), the controller may not operate properly. Charge the battery before starting the troubleshooting procedures. When testing voltage, the “positive side” of any component refers to the terminal on that component that is closest electrically to the battery positive terminal. The “negative side” of any component refers to the terminal on the component that is farthest electrically from the battery positive terminal. It is possible, and in many cases desirable, to measure battery voltage at both the positive and negative side of a component.

Proper operation of this truck is with forks trailing when possible. Steering the truck is easier with the forks trailing. Always look in the direction of travel. Keep both hands within the handle guard and always look in the direction of travel.

TRAVEL

After the final test is completed, the truck should be repaired and operating properly. If it is not, then verify test results and possibly re-evaluate failure symptoms. If truck is still not repaired, then call your local authorized BT Prime-Mover Dealer for assistance. The following information is required when placing a service call: •

Truck model and serial number

Service hour meter

Actual battery voltage at open circuit

Actual battery voltage at open circuit at hydraulic operation under full load

Operating symptoms

Exact results of the testing performed

Perform the following steps before starting all troubleshooting procedures: 1. Inspect truck for physical damage or mechanical malfunction. Contactors must be free to move. Tips must not be welded or burnt. 2. Check for ground faults from electrical system to frame with an ohmmeter. A minimum of 20,000 ohms resistance from frame to any and all wiring is acceptable.

3. Check that the battery is fully charged and connected. 4. Operate truck in all modes to determine the exact symptoms. DO NOT forget that systems are equipped with circuits that prevent operation in the event of improper operating procedures.

5.1. General Many problems are caused by a faulty or dirty battery. Make sure battery is clean. Check the electrolyte level and state of charge. CAUTION Be sure to block truck whenever a troubleshooting procedure requires turning key switch (S17) ON. This will avoid accidents caused by unexpected truck travel. CAUTION Unless otherwise directed, disconnect battery connector when checking electrical circuits or components with an ohmmeter. Electrical current can damage the ohmmeter. For transistor controller parameters see page 231. For troubleshooting the transistor controller see page 227. Visually inspect all wiring and electrical components for the following: •

Loose connections or connectors

Loose or broken terminals

Damaged terminals, blocks, or strips

Broken wiring and shorted conditions (especially those that are close to metal edges or surfaces)

Use an ohmmeter to check for wiring continuity.

6. Shorts to Frame Test “Shorts to frame” is an industry term for unintentional current leakage paths between normally isolated electrical circuits and their metal enclosures. Shorts to frame may be metallic connections, such as a wire conductor contacting metal through worn insulation. More often, shorts to frame are resistive “leakage” paths caused by contamination and/or moisture. These leakage paths can result in unwanted electrical noise on the metallic truck structure and may result in improper operation. Shorts to frame can be caused by the following: •

Accumulation of dirt

Battery electrolyte leakage

Motor brush dust

Motor brush leads touching housing

Breakdown in insulation

Bare wires

Pinched wiring harness

Improper mounting of circuit cards

Shorts to frame can occur at numerous locations on truck include:

To test for shorts to frame: 1. Turn the key switch OFF and disconnect the battery from the truck. 2. To test the battery for shorts to case, connect a 12volt test light to battery case from battery B+, and then to battery case from battery B-. If it lights at all, even momentarily, there is a problem with the battery, either external contamination or internal damage. DO NOT continue until this condition is corrected. Meter may be damaged if proceeding before correcting condition. Install another battery in the truck and repeat procedure from step 1. If the test light does not light, continue to the next step. 3. With the battery disconnected from the truck, use a digital volt/ohm/ammeter on the ampere function to measure the leakage current from the battery case to battery B+ and from battery case to battery B-. Begin measuring at the highest Ampere scale and work toward the lowest. A reading of more than 0.001 ampere (1 mA) indicates a short. DO NOT continue until this condition is corrected. The meter may be damaged if proceeding before correcting condition. Install another battery in the truck and repeat procedure from step 1. If current is less than 0.0002 ampere (0.2 mA), go to step 4. If current is greater than 0.0002 ampere (0.2 mA) and less than 0.001 ampere (1 mA), remove battery from the truck, and continue with step 4. Ensure battery case does not touch truck frame during the remaining tests. 4. With battery disconnected (or removed and disconnected) from the truck, use a digital ohmmeter to measure the resistance from truck frame to truck B+, to truck B- (NOT battery B+ and B-), and to all fuses and motors. A reading of less than 1000 ohms indicates a short. DO NOT continue until this condition is corrected. Meter

7. Definitions Continuity A continuous and uninterrupted path between two or more locations in an electrical circuit, typically having a resistance of less than 1 ohm. Open Circuit A lack of a continuous path between two or more electrical connections. Generally, when such a circuit is tested, it will have a resistance greater than ten megohms. Overtemperature (Power Amplifier) Overtemperature of the motor power amplifier is from 185o F (85o C) and above. At overtemperature, the drive current limit is linearly decreased from full set current down to zero. Plug current is not reduced to provide full vehicle braking under all thermal conditions. Pulse Width Modulation Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), also called “chopping,” controls the speed of the motor by switching the battery voltage to the motor on and off very quickly. Short Circuit or “Short” A short circuit is an unspecified path in a circuit that provides unwanted full or partial continuity between two or more locations in an electrical circuit. Example: Two insulated wires are physically next to each other and the insulation has been worn off each of the wires. Because the conductors inside each wire are now touching each other, there is a short circuit. Example: A power cable from the battery to a junction post in the truck has had the insulation worn away. Because the wire conductors are touching the tractor frame, there is a short circuit of the battery cable. Undertemperature When the power amplifier is operating at less than −13° F (−25° C), the current limit is cut back resulting in reduced travel speed.

8. Diagnostics and Troubleshooting The controllers provide diagnostic information to assist technicians in troubleshooting drive system problems. The diagnostic information can be obtained by reading the appropriate display on the PMC handset (see “Handset Operation” on page 269). The information can also be obtained by looking at the status LED built in the controller that is visible through the window label.

8.1. Handset Diagnostics The handset presents complete diagnostic information. Faults are displayed in the Diagnostic Menu and the status of the controller inputs/outputs is displayed in the Test Menu on page 230. Accessing the Diagnostic History Menu provides a list of the faults that have occurred since the diagnostic history file was last cleared. Checking (and clearing) the diagnostic history file is recommended each time the unit is brought in for maintenance. For complete operating instructions for the PMC handset see “Handset Operation” on page 269. Refer to the troubleshooting chart for suggestions covering a wide range of possible faults (see page 235).

8.2. Troubleshooting Troubleshooting can be broken down into three sections: 1. Handset 2. Status LED on the controller 3. Electrical circuits These sections can be further broken down into control circuit and power circuit. By knowing the exact symptoms of the truck operation, many hours of troubleshooting time can be saved. If the proper switch operates for the chosen direction and speed, then the problem can be found in the controller or the power circuit of that function. Only the travel functions are controlled by the transistor controllers. Lift, lower, and horn functions operate separately. To use this troubleshooting guide, locate the failure symptom in the index (see “Troubleshooting Chart” on page 227.) Then © BT Prime-Mover, Products Inc.

go to the expanded outline and follow the testing procedures described. Voltage tests are made with the negative lead of the volt meter connected to battery negative. If the negative lead is connected to a negative terminal on the electrical panel, first verify the negative connection to the battery by touching the positive meter lead to the positive battery post. The battery voltage must be at least 25.2 volts for a 24 volt system. If the battery voltage is below 22 volts (no load), then the controller may not operate properly. Charge the battery before starting the troubleshooting procedures. When testing voltage, the “POSITIVE SIDE” of any component refers to the terminal on that component that is closest electrically to the battery positive terminal. The “NEGATIVE SIDE” of any component refers to the terminal on the component that is farthest electrically from the battery positive terminal. It is possible and in many cases desirable to measure battery voltage on the negative side of a component. Forward direction refers to travel in the direction of the control handle with the forks trailing. Rearward direction refers to travel with the forks first. The control handle operating position is between 10 degrees below fully raised and 20 degrees above fully lowered. When the control handle is fully raised or fully lowered, the brakes are applied; and the brake interlock switch cuts off all power to the travel control circuits. The line contactor will also open. After the final test is completed, the truck should be repaired and operating properly. If it is not, verify test results and possibly re-evaluate the failure symptoms. If the truck still has not been repaired, then call your local BT Prime-Mover Dealer for assistance. When placing a call, the following information is required: truck model and serial number; service hourmeter; actual battery voltage at open circuit and at hydraulic operation under full load; the precise operating symptoms; and the exact results of the testing completed. Authorized BT Prime-Mover Dealers may call the factory directly if necessary.

The first steps of any troubleshooting procedure include: 1. Inspect truck for physical damage or mechanical malfunction. Contactors must be free to move and tips must not be welded or burnt. 2. Check for ground faults from the electrical system to the frame with an ohmmeter. A minimum of 20,000 ohms resistance from the frame to any and all wiring is acceptable. 3. Check that the battery is fully charged and connected. 4. Operate the truck in all modes to determine the exact symptoms. DO NOT forget that systems are equipped with safety circuits that prevent operation in the event of improper operating procedures.

8.3. Troubleshooting Chart The controller has a Status LED built into the controller that is visible through a window in the label. This LED displays fault codes whenever there is a problem with the controller or the inputs to controller. During normal operation with no faults present, the Status LED will flash steadily on and off. If the controller detects a fault a 2 digit code (see table below) is flashed continuously until the fault is corrected. Example, Code “3.2” • main contactor welded • appears as:

Hydraulic System WARNING DO NOT use your hands to check for hydraulic leakage. Use a piece of cardboard or paper to search for leaks. Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing injury. Relieve pressure before disconnecting hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all connections before applying pressure. Keep hands and body away from pinholes and nozzles which eject fluids under high pressure.

1. General The hydraulic system consists of a compact hydraulic unit, including a electric solenoid valve, pressure relief valve and a cylinder for lifting the forks.

2. Troubleshooting NOTE!

Proper care and cleanliness should be observed in servicing to insure oil does not become contaminated with dirt or other foreign material. Contaminants can be drawn into pump so as to stick or score pump which will cause failure of pump assembly.

If the hydraulic pump assembly does not operate properly, the following preliminary checks should be made: 1. Proper oil level 2. All electrical connections tight 3. Battery fully charged When checking voltage at solenoids, make sure hydraulic lines and components are fully installed. When possible, keep the key switch OFF and battery connector disconnected.

After the preliminary check is accomplished, install a 0-5000 psi (0-34473 kPa) pressure gauge in the 0.375 inch (9.525 mm) NPTF outlet port near the relief valve in the adaptor. The installation of a pressure gauge is required to insure proper observation of what is occurring in the unit during trouble shooting. Start pump and raise lift cylinder to its upper limit stops to develop maximum pressure of the unit, which will normally be passing all flow over a relief valve. Pressure gauge should be reading the set pressure of the relief valve. Remove pressure on hydraulic system by actuating the solenoid operated lowering valve. Normal trouble that may occur with pump assembly have been grouped under three headings: Failure to (A) Raise (B) Hold (C) Lower load. One or more of the listed trouble sources may be causing improper operation. Refer to the proper heading (relief valve) for detailed instructions for disassembly, check and adjustment of parts to remedy the trouble. A. If pump operates but will only develops low pressure or slow lift: (1) Relief valve seat scored, foreign particles under ball or relief valve out of adjustment (see page 262). (2) Dirt in solenoid-operated release (see page 262). (3) Pump worn, replace pump. B. If pump develops pressure but will not hold: (1) Dirt in solenoid-operated release. (2) Relief valve seat scored, foreign particles under ball or relief valve out of adjustment. C. If pump develops pressure but will not release load: (1) No electrical contact to solenoid operated release valve (see page 262). (2) Solenoid in solenoid-operated release valve burned out. (3) Relief valve bottomed causing pressure to go beyond the unloading limit of the solenoid release valve. 248

4. Description 4.1. Lift When lift button is pushed, the lift pump solenoid is energized starting the pump and motor. Fluid is drawn from the reservoir, through a pick up screen to the inlet of the gear pump. As the gear pump rotates, oil is forced out the pressure port and is blocked from returning to the reservoir by a closed relief valve and lowering valve. Oil continues to flow to the top of the lift cylinder and pushes against the end of cylinder rod to extend the rod from the cylinder tube. When the lift pump motor is shut off and the gear pump is not turning, the cylinder is held extended by a closed check valve and normally closed lowering valve.

4.2. Lower Hydraulic fluid is retained in the hydraulic cylinder by a check valve and electrical solenoid lowering valve. When the solenoid is energized, oil passage from the cylinder to reservoir is opened. Due to the load on the lift cylinder, fluid is forced out of the lift cylinder and back to the reservoir while the lift cylinder is retracting. Lowering speed is regulated by a flow regulator. This process allows the truck to lower.

4.3. Relief Pressure The relief pressure is set at 3200 psi (22063 kPa).

5. Maintenance Hydraulic fluid level must be checked periodically (see “Planned Maintenance Schedule” on page 59). If the reservoir regularly requires additional oil to maintain proper level, a leak is indicated and must be repaired. When scheduled, the reservoir should be removed and drained for cleaning and replaced with new oil. After refilling, check lift, lower and other hydraulic functions for proper operation. If the truck will not lift a full load, the pressure relief setting should be checked and adjusted. During normal operation, pressure relief setting will not change. As the lift pump wears with age, some loss of performance will be experienced. When this loss becomes severe, the lift pump should be replaced.

6. Lift Limit Switch Lift limit switch is accessible by removing the outer cover. It is located on the lower right side of the lift carrier frame. The lift limit switch is actuated by a peg cast into the lift carrier frame. To adjust switch: WARNING Block all wheels to prevent truck from rolling. 1. Park truck on level surface and block truck from moving. 2. Disconnect battery connector from truck. 3. Remove cover. Turn truck to the down position. 4. Loosen mounting screws and move lift limit switch away from operating peg so that it will not operate. 5. Connect battery connector to truck. Raise pallet forks to maximum height. Do not stall hydraulics against relief for longer than necessary. 6. Lower pallet forks until the tops of the forks are 9.25 inches (234 mm) above the floor.

Handset Operation The PMC handset allows the transistor controller to be programed, tested, and diagnosed. The handset is powered by the host controller, via a 4-pin connector located on the controller. When the handset is first plugged into the controller, it displays the controller’s model number, date of manufacture, and software revision code. Following this initial display, the handset displays a prompt for further instructions.

CHANGE VALVE

The handset is operated via an 8-key keypad. Three keys select operating modes (Program, Test, Diagnostics), two keys scroll the display up and down and two keys change the values of selected parameters. The eighth key, the MORE INFO key, is used to display further information about selected items within any of the three standard modes. In addition, when pressed together with the PROGRAM or the DIAGNOSTICS key, the MORE INFO key selects the Special Program mode or the Special Diagnostics mode. The display window presents a 4-line LCD display that is visible even in bright sunlight. The display contrast can be adjusted in the Special Program mode. When one of the menu keys is pressed, the LED at the corner of the key lights up, identifying the mode of handset operation. For example, if the TEST key is pressed, the LED at the corner of the key indicates that the handset is now in the Test mode and the Test Menu is displayed. Four lines of a menu are displayed at a time. The item at the top of the display window is the selected item. To select an item, scroll within the menu until the desired item is positioned at the top of the display window. The selected item is always the top line. (In the Program mode, selected item is highlighted by a flashing arrow.) To modify a parameter or obtain more information about it, scroll to the top position in the display window.

SCROLL DISPLAY

To scroll up and down within a menu, use the two SCROLL DISPLAY arrow keys. The SCROLL DISPLAY arrow keys can be pressed repeatedly or be held down. The scrolling speed increases the longer the key is held. A small scroll bar at the left of the display window provides a rough indication of the position of the four displayed items within the entire menu. When the bar is at the top of the window, the top of the menu is displayed. As you scroll through the menu, the bar moves downward. When the bar is at the very bottom of the window, you have reached the end of the menu. This sample display is from the Program Menu:

Selected item

The two CHANGE VALUE arrow keys are used to increase or decrease the value of the selected menu item. Like the SCROLL DISPLAY arrow keys, the CHANGE VALUE arrow keys can be pressed repeatedly or can be held down. The longer a key is held, the faster the parameter changes. This allows rapid changing of any parameter. A LED on each CHANGE VALUE arrow key indicates whether the key is active and change is permissible. When the value of a parameter is being increased, the LED on the “up” CHANGE VALUE key is on until the maximum value for that parameter is reached. The value cannot increase when the LED goes off. The MORE INFO key has three functions: 1. Display more information about the selected item. 2. Access the Special Program and Diagnostics mode (when used together).

Special

3. Initiate certain commands (such as the Self Test). “More information” is available in all of the handset operating modes. After using the MORE INFO key to display additional information about the selected item, press the MORE INFO key again to return to the original list.

1. Operating Modes

PROGRAM

In the Program mode, accessed by pressing the PROGRAM key, all the adjustable parameters and features of the controller are displayed (four at a time), along with their present settings. The setting of the selected item and the item at the top of the display with the flashing arrow can be changed using the two CHANGE VALUE keys. The LED’s on these keys indicate whether there is still room for change. When the upper limit of a parameter’s range LED on the “up” key no longer lights up, the present value cannot be increased. When the lower limit is reached, the LED on the “down” key no longer lights up. The MORE INFO key, when used in the Program mode, displays a bar graph along with the minimum and maximum values possible for the selected parameter. Parameters can be changed either from the main Program Menu or after the MORE INFO key has been pressed and the additional information is being displayed (see example below). Selected parameter Bar graph

Set value MODE 1 ACCELERATION RATE, SECS

1.3 MIN 0.2

MAX 3.0

Maximum value

Minimum value Some controllers parameters are dependent on other parameters, available settings for one parameter may be dependent on the limits of another parameter. For example, controller may not allow the reverse speed to be set below the Mode 1 minimum speed. In this example, if there is an attempt to reduce the reverse speed below the M1 minimum speed, a message will be displayed indicating that the minimum reverse speed is dependent on the M1 minimum speed (see “Special Program Menu” on page 230). NOTE!

Some items may not be available on all models.

In the Test mode, accessed by pressing the TEST key, realtime information is displayed about the status of the inputs, TEST 272

outputs, and controller temperature. For example, when the status of the reverse input is displayed, it should read “On/ Off/On/Off/On/Off” as the switch is repeatedly turned on and off. In the Test mode, the item of interest does not need to be the top item on the list. It only needs to be among the four items visible in the window. The Test mode is useful for checking out the operation of the controller during initial installation or for troubleshooting should problems occur. The MORE INFO key, when used in the Test mode, causes additional information to be displayed about the selected item (top line in the window) (see “Test Menu” on page 230.) NOTE!

Some items may not be available on all models.

In the Diagnostics mode, accessed by pressing the DIAGNOSTICS key, currently active faults detected by the controller are displayed. DIAGNOSTICS

* MORE INFO

PROGRAM

The MORE INFO key, when used in the Diagnostics mode, causes additional information to be displayed about the selected item. For a list of the abbreviations used in the Diagnostics display see “Diagnostics and Troubleshooting” on page 225. The Special Program mode allows a variety of tasks, most of which are self-explanatory. Through the Special Program Menu, revert to earlier settings, save controller settings into the handset memory, load the controller settings from the handset into a controller, clear the controller’s diagnostic history, adjust the contrast of the handset’s LCD display, select the language to be displayed by the handset, and display basic information (model number, etc.) about the controller and the handset. To access the Special Program mode, first press the MORE INFO key. Then, while continuing to hold the MORE INFO key, press the PROGRAM key. The LED on the PROGRAM key will light, when the handset is in Program mode. To distinguish between the Program and Special Program modes, look at the menu items in the display.

CONTROLLER CLONING Two of the Special Program Menu items, Save Controller Settings in Handset and Load Handset Settings into Controller, allows “clone” controllers. To complete this function, program one controller to the desired settings. Save these settings in the handset and load into other similar (same model number) controllers, thus creating a family of controllers with identical settings. The MORE INFO key is used initially to access the Special Program mode. Once within the Special Program mode, it performs the desired tasks. To adjust the contrast in the display window for example, select “Contrast Adjustment” by scrolling until this item is at the top of the screen. Then press MORE INFO to find out how to make the adjustments. In the Special Diagnostics mode, the controller’s diagnostic history file is displayed. This file includes a list of all faults observed and recorded by the controller since the history was last cleared.

* MORE INFO

PROGRAM

NOTE!

The maximum and minimum temperatures recorded by the controller are included in the Test Menu.

Each fault is listed in the diagnostic history file only once regardless of the number of times it occurred. To access Special Diagnostics, first press MORE INFO key. Then, while continuing to hold the MORE INFO key, press the DIAGNOSTICS key. The LED on the DIAGNOSTICS key will light just as when the handset is in Diagnostics mode. The MORE INFO key, when used within the Special Diagnostics mode, causes additional information to be displayed about the selected item. To clear the diagnostic history file, put the handset into the Special Program mode, select “Clear Diagnostic History”, and press the MORE INFO key for instructions. Clearing the diagnostic history file also resets the maximum/minimum temperatures in the Test Menu. 274

2. Revert to Previous Settings Each time the handset is connected to the controller, it acquires all the controller’s parameters and stores them in its temporary memory. Revert back to these original settings at any time during a programming session via the Special Program Menu. Select “Revert to Previous Settings” by scrolling it to the top of the display window, press the MORE INFO key and follow instructions displayed. Any inadvertent changing of parameters can be “undone” using this procedure, even if the previous settings are not remembered, as long as the handset has not been unplugged and power has not been removed from the controller.

3. Handset Self Test

SCROLL DISPLAY

Test the handset by displaying two special test screens. Press the MORE INFO key while the handset is powering up. During the Self Test, toggle between the two test screens by pressing the SCROLL DISPLAY keys. The first screen turns on every LCD element and the second screen displays all the characters used in the various menus. As part of the Self Test, test the keys by pressing each one and observing whether its corner LED lights up. To exit the Self Test, unplug the handset or turn off the controller and then repower it without holding the MORE INFO key.
