The proper and safe lubrication and maintenance for this machine, recommended by Mitsubishi, are outlined in the SERVICE MANUAL for this machine. Improper performance of lubrication or maintenance procedures is dangerous and could result in injury or DEATH. Read and understand the SERVICE MANUAL before performing any lubrication or maintenance. The service person or mechanic may be unfamiliar with many systems on this machine. 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 components. Because of the size of some of the machine components, the service person 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 machine before operating, lubricating, or repairing the product. 2. Always wear protective glasses and protective shoes when working around machines. In particular, wear protective glasses when pounding on any part of the machine or its attachments with a hammer or sledge. Use welder’s gloves, hood/goggles, apron, and other protective clothing appropriate to the 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 machine that is supported only by lift jacks or a hoist. Always use blocks or jack stands to support the machine before performing any disassembly. 4. Lower the forks or other implements to the ground before performing any work on the machine. 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 machine. Clean any mud or debris from steps, walkways, or work platforms before using. Always face the machine when using steps, ladders, or 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 machines which have just been stopped and hot fluids in lines, tubes, or components. 8. Be careful when removing cover plates. Gradually back off the last two bolts or nuts located at opposite ends of the covers 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 machine. 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 machine 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 the 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 machine parked on a hard, level surface. Block machine so that it does not roll while working on or under the machine. 13. Disconnect battery and discharge capacitors (electric trucks) before starting to work on the machine. 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 strength equivalent at least to that of the parent metal. 15. Do not damage wiring during removal operations. Reinstall the wiring so that 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 being performed which requires the mast in the raised position. 18. Loose or damaged 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 all connections to the correct torque. Make sure that all 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 the 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 machine 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. 22. On LP equipped lift trucks, be sure to close the valve on the LP tank before service work is performed. Always close the valve on the LP tank when the lift truck is being stored. Do not check for LP leaks with an open flame.

23. Caution should be used to avoid breathing dust that may be generated when handling components containing asbestos fibers. If this dust is inhaled, it can be hazardous to your health. Components in Mitsubishi products that may contain asbestos fibers are brake pads, brake band and lining assemblies, clutch plates, and some gaskets. The asbestos used in these components is usually found in a resin or sealed in some way. Normal handling is not hazardous as long as airborne dust containing asbestos is not generated. If dust which may contain asbestos is present, there are several common sense guidelines that should be followed: 1. Never use compressed air for cleaning. 2. Avoid brushing or grinding of asbestos-containing materials. 3. For clean up, use wet methods or a vacuum equipped with a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter. 4. Use exhaust ventilation on permanent machining jobs. 5. Wear an approved respirator if there is no other way to control the dust. 6. Comply with applicable rules and regulations for the workplace (for example, in the U.S.A., OSHA requirements as set forth in 29 CFR 1920.1001). 7. Follow environmental rules and regulations for disposal of asbestos. 8. Avoid areas where asbestos particles may be in the air.

Chapter 2: Installation Inspecting the Truck

Inspecting the Truck Before installing the truck, inspect it for shipping damage and for Mitsubishi quality standards. This section explains how to do the inspection.

How the Truck is Shipped

Before doing the inspection, take note of how the truck was prepared for shipping from the factory: • The Mast/Tractor Assembly is laid down on a skid (this is known as cradling). Usually if the Overall Lowered Height (OALH) is 107 in. (2717.8 mm) or more, the truck will be secured to a cradle and shipped lying down (with its mast horizontal). Instructions for uncradling a truck are on page 2-5. • The carriage is strapped to the truck’s baselegs (for cradled trucks). • In the battery compartment: •

A glass mast guard is installed (if used).

Two battery doors are strapped in place.

Two battery gates are strapped in place.

• Solid gaskets are placed beneath the breather cap of the hydraulic reservoir and inside the cap of the brake reservoir to prevent leakage. (Instructions for removing the gasket are on page 2-8.)

Reasons for Doing a Visual Inspection

The reasons for visually inspecting a Mitsubishi truck are: • To look for shipping damage • To make sure the unit has been built to the sales order • To make sure the unit meets Mitsubishi’s high quality standards

What to Look For

Using the “Visual Inspection Checklist,” on page 2-4, look for anything that doesn’t meet Mitsubishi specifications or the sales order including: dents, cuts, missing components, leaks, cracks, and so on.

Repairing Shipping Damage

Any damage caused during shipping is the responsibility of the carrier and should be repaired at the carrier’s expense. Shipping damages are not covered under the Mitsubishi warranty policy.

Chapter 2: Installation Uprighting a Cradled Truck

Uprighting a Cradled Truck This section includes instructions for uprighting a cradled truck. Generally, when the OALH (Overall Lowered Height) of a truck is 107 in. (2717.8 mm) or higher, it will be secured to a cradle and shipped lying down (with the mast horizontal).

Warnings and Cautions

Be sure to follow these important warnings and cautions before uprighting a cradled truck:

! CAUTION Two technicians are required for erecting and assembling the unit.

! CAUTION Remove all jewelry from hands and wrists before doing the installation.

! WARNING Do not remove the banding that secures the carriage to the baselegs until after you have the truck standing upright. Use extreme caution when removing the metal banding which secures the forks to the cradle—bands might recoil when cut.

! WARNING To prevent possible injury or damage to the unit, use extreme caution when handling a cradled lift truck. Place the mast, truck, and pallets in an open area where it will be safe to work. The truck components are heavy, unstable, and difficult to handle. Use extreme care when lifting and assembling this truck. Proceed with extreme caution. • Anyone involved in setting up this unit should wear gloves, safety glasses, steel-toed boots, and a safety helmet. • There should be no distractions during setup of this truck. • Do not allow observers to stand nearby.

Items Needed

To upright the truck, you’ll need: • A hoist with a minimum working capacity of 5 tons (4536 kg). • An assembly area with a ceiling clearance in excess of the truck’s collapsed height. • A hoist sling for the mast.

PDMM-0058

Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 2: Installation Uprighting a Cradled Truck

Option 1: Uprighting with Two Chain Hoists

Use this procedure when two chain hoists of suitable weight capacities are available. 1. Before lifting the truck into the upright position, remove the forks from the cradle. Use a lifting device to prevent personal injury because the forks weigh more than 50 lbs. (23 kg) each. 2. Position the cradled truck so it is lying directly beneath and parallel to the chain hoist rail. 3. Attach the first chain hoist to the upper cross piece of the cradled truck’s mast. 4. Attach the second chain hoist to the baselegs of the cradled truck. 5. Slowly raise each chain until all slack is gone.

! WARNING While performing the next step, be sure that the chain on the baselegs does not lift the cradle off the floor. Also, be sure not to let it become slack as this will allow the truck to lower too quickly. 6. Begin lifting the chain attached to the upper cross piece of the cradled truck’s mast. 7. Once the lifting chain reaches a certain point, the center of gravity will shift, causing the weight of the cradled truck to shift to the chain hoist attached to the baselegs. 8. Once the weight has shifted, continue to lower the truck with the baseleg chain hoist until it is standing on the floor in the upright position. 9. Remove the chains from the baselegs. 10. Remove the chain from the upper cross piece of the truck’s mast and attach it to the upper cross piece of the cradle. 11. Loosen and remove the nuts holding the wooden cradle cross piece to the mast; then remove the wooden cradle cross piece. 12. Remove the bolts from the bottom cradle cross piece that secures the cradle to the truck’s front bumper. 13. Lift the cradle up and away from the truck and slowly lower it to the floor. 14. Remove the strapping which secures the carriage to the baselegs. 15. Assemble the truck; see “Assembling the Truck” on page 2-8.

2-6

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 2: Installation Uprighting a Cradled Truck

Option 2: Uprighting with One Chain Hoist and a Lift Truck

Use this procedure when one chain hoist is available. This procedure uses a lift truck and a chain hoist, both of suitable weight capacity. 1. Before lifting the truck into the upright position, remove the forks from the cradle. Use a lifting device to prevent personal injury because the forks weigh more than 50 lbs. (23 kg) each. 2. Position the cradled truck so it is lying directly beneath and parallel to the chain hoist rail. 3. Position the forks of the lift truck you’re using to upright the truck under the upper cross piece of the cradle.

! WARNING Once the forks are positioned under the cradle, attach a safety chain between the fork carriage of the lifting truck and the upper cross piece of the cradle. This prevents the cradle from slipping off the forks during the uprighting procedure. 4. Attach the chain hoist to the baselegs of the cradled truck. 5. Slowly raise the chain hoist until all slack is gone.

! WARNING While performing the next step, be sure that the chain on the baselegs does not lift the cradle off the floor. Also, be sure not to let it become slack as this will allow the truck to lower too quickly. 6. Begin to raise the upper end of the cradle with the forks of the lifting truck. 7. Once the forks have lifted the cradle to a certain point, the center of gravity will shift. This causes the weight of the cradled truck to shift to the chain hoist. 8. Once the weight has shifted, continue to lower the truck with the chain hoist until the truck is standing on the floor in the upright position. 9. Remove the chain between the lifting truck carriage and the upper cross piece of the cradle. Back the lifting truck away. 10. Remove the chain from the baselegs and attach it to the upper cross piece of the cradle. 11. Loosen and remove the nuts holding the wooden cradle cross piece to the mast, then remove the wooden cross piece. 12. Remove the bolts from the bottom cradle cross piece that secure the cradle to the truck’s front bumper. 13. With the chain still attached to the cradle, lift the cradle up and away from the truck and slowly lower it to the floor. 14. Remove the strapping which secures the carriage to the baselegs. 15. Assemble the truck; see “Assembling the Truck” on page 2-8. PDMM-0058

Changing the Hydraulic System Oil

To change the oil in the hydraulic system, do the following: 1. Be sure the truck is in a clean area, away from any possible contaminating elements that could enter the hydraulic system during the changing process. 2. Drain the hydraulic reservoir completely. Be sure to drain as much oil as possible from the hydraulic lines and cylinders. 3. Fill the hydraulic reservoir with the proper oil in accordance with Figure 2-1 and Figure 5-10, “Lubrication/Inspection Points,” on page 5-18. Also see the “Lubrication Equivalency Chart” on page A-2. 4. Operate all truck functions and check for possible hydraulic leaks. 5. Bleed the entire hydraulic system before placing the truck into service. 6. Check the reservoir oil level. The remainder of the original hydraulic oil left in the system, (approximately 5%) should not be detrimental to the operation of the truck.

Preparing the Truck for Storage This section describes how to prepare the truck for storage.

Storage Warranty

If the truck is going to be stored for any length of time, the following procedure should be used. A Certified Mitsubishi Dealer should contact the Mitsubishi Warranty Division for the proper warranty procedures.

General Storage Tips

Try to keep the truck in a dry and covered area. Cover the truck using plastic or canvas. Keeping the truck in a low moisture, temperature controlled environment will greatly reduce problems. If the truck is going to be stored for longer than 30 days, jack it up and block it off the floor.

! WARNING Use extreme care whenever the truck is jacked up for any reason. Never block the truck between the telescopic and the floor. Use a suitable hoist to stabilize the mast. Keep hands and feet clear from beneath the truck while jacking. Use jack stands or solid blocks to support the truck; do not rely on jacks. See “Jacking the Truck” on page 5-3.

2-14

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 2: Installation Preparing the Truck for Storage

! WARNING If the truck is going to be stored for longer than six months, spray the hydraulic components with a silicone protectant. Do not get spray on the circuit cards.

Hydraulic System

The hydraulic system will absorb moisture when left standing for a long time. Make sure the reservoir is full before storing. Before starting the truck up again, drain the reservoir and change the filters. Refill the reservoir with the proper grade of new hydraulic fluid. Operate the hydraulic systems slowly to allow internal components to get lubricated.

Hydraulic Cylinders

If possible, store the truck with the cylinder pistons in the retracted position. Coat all exposed chrome surfaces of the piston with hydraulic oil.

Lift Chains

Liberally coat all chains using oil to prevent rust and corrosion.

Mast Uprights

Grease the uprights by doing the following: 1. Before placing the truck into service, clean the mast uprights of any dust and dirt. 2. Elevate the mast until the telescopic uprights are accessible. 3. Swab telescopic and main frame uprights, using a 2” (50 mm) brush, with a light coating of Lube E. See the “Lubrication Equivalency Chart” on page A-2.

Electronics

No special precautions are necessary to store the electronics hardware except to ensure that all components stay dry.

Motors

Lift the brushes in each motor away from the commutator surface. Periodically, rotate the motor shafts; this coats the bearings with lubricant, which reduces oxidation and corrosion.

PDMM-0058

2-15


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 2: Installation Preparing the Truck for Storage

When preparing to put the truck back in use, the surface of the commutator should be inspected and polished, if required, using a rubber abrasive polish. Polishers are specifically made for polishing commutators. DO NOT use a stone.

Battery

Store the battery in a cool, dry area. High temperatures are not good for the battery; the higher the temperature, the quicker the opencircuit discharge rate. It is not recommended to store batteries in temperatures over 110oF (43oC) for extended periods of time. A fully charged battery can be stored three months without any service. DO NOT store a partially discharged battery; chemical reactions within the battery will ruin it. If wetness is observed on the top of the battery, neutralize the surface using one pound (0.45 kg) of baking soda to one gallon (3.78 l) of hot water. Rinse the battery with clear water and dry before storing. Check the condition of the batteries on a regular basis.

The truck hour meter will automatically record traction control operating hours. The hour meter is a 4-digit display. Each time the key is turned to ON, the display will show 8888 briefly so that the LED’s can be checked for failures.

Battery Charge Level

The Battery Charge Level shows the energy level which remains in the battery, based on voltage readings. The value displayed is the percentage of useful energy remaining in the battery. Voltage fluctuations will occur during normal operation. The battery charge level is a 3-digit display. When the battery charge level reaches 20%, the LED above the battery icon on the display will begin to flash. This is a reminder to the operator that lift cutout is approaching. When the battery charge level reaches 10%, lift will be prevented. The battery must be recharged or replaced with a recharged battery before lift will function again.

Status Codes

Messages will appear on the System Display to inform you of certain operating conditions; the three types of messages are: • Information Messages • Performance Limiting Codes • Fault Codes

Informational Messages

An informational message will not restrict or limit truck performance. An example of an informational message is the battery charge level. The truck has only two informational messages. One is the battery charge level and the other is Code 01. Code 01 indicates that the deadman switch needs to be pressed.

Chapter 3: Operating Instructions Operator’s Daily Checklist

Operator’s Daily Checklist For safe and efficient operation, complete the following checks at the beginning of each day or shift of operation. Report any malfunction to the Service Department.

! CAUTION Do not operate the truck until it is repaired. If you are not qualified to inspect the truck, or if you do not understand the proper inspection procedure, contact the authorized Mitsubishi Forklift dealer. The inspection procedure is in “Planned Maintenance” on page 5-12.

Visual Checks

Perform these visual checks: 1. Battery: •

Proper voltage

Fully charged

No leakage

Installed properly with secure fastening

Connector is in good condition and properly attached to mating connector

2. Guards and covers are properly installed. 3. The wearable surface of the drive and load wheels must not be damaged. They must have adequate material remaining. 4. Lift chains should be in place and properly lubricated. 5. Hydraulic hoses should be in good condition. 6. Warning and accessory lights should operate. 7. Safety decals should be in place and should be legible. 8. All controls should return to neutral when released. 9. General inspection (such as leaks, bent forks, abnormal sounds, cracked welds, loose hardware, and so on).

Operational Checks

Perform these operational checks: 1. Lift/lower—smooth and responsive to commands. 2. Auxiliary functions—operate when control is activated. 3. Brakes—travel slowly and check that brakes work. With a rated load at full speed, the truck should stop within 6 to 11 feet (1.83 to 3.35 meters).

3-4

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 3: Operating Instructions Operator’s Daily Checklist

4. Directional/speed control—truck motion should be smooth and should respond to commands throughout all speed ranges. 5. Steering—smooth without binding or excess play. 6. Horn—sound it. 7. Deadman pedal—should disable travel and apply the brake when released. 8. Battery disconnect button—should disable auxiliary, travel, and lift circuits when pressed.

Start-up Procedure

To start the truck, do the following: 1. Perform the Operator’s Daily Checklist. 2. Check that the battery is secure. 3. Connect the battery connection to the truck. Make sure that the Battery Disconnect separates the battery connector when you push it. 4. Step into the operator’s compartment. 5. Check the hour meter by turning the key to ON, then to OFF. 6. Turn the key switch to ON. 7. Use one foot to press and hold down the deadman pedal. 8. Use one hand to steer the truck and the other to control travel and auxiliary functions. The truck can be driven either forks first or tractor first.

! CAUTION If you are unsure what direction the truck will move, travel slowly until you know the truck path. 9. Check brake operation by releasing the deadman pedal moving. With a rated load, the brake should stop the truck within 6 to 11 feet (1.83 to 3.35 meters).

Forward/Reverse Travel

PDMM-0058

Move the directional/speed control toward the desired direction of travel. The amount of directional/speed control movement determines truck speed. To travel faster, move the directional/speed control further from neutral.

3-5


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 3: Operating Instructions Operator’s Daily Checklist

Braking

Brakes are the recommended method of stopping the truck, especially in an emergency. 1. Return directional/speed control to neutral. 2. Gradually let up on the deadman pedal to get the desired braking force. 3. In an emergency, release the deadman pedal quickly. This will disable the travel system and apply full braking effort to stop the truck in the shortest possible distance.

Plugging

Plugging is the recommended method of retarding travel speed and changing direction during operational maneuvers. Plugging can also be used to stop the truck. This method will not stop the truck as quickly as braking, but it will provide the operator with an alternate method to bring the truck to a smooth, controlled stop. 1. Move the directional/speed control through neutral to the direction opposite travel. 2. The truck will slow down, come to a stop, then start traveling in the opposite direction. The further past neutral you move the directional/speed control, the greater the plugging force. It is common practice to use the brakes while plugging to stop the truck. To do this, release the deadman pedal after plugging has slowed or stopped the truck. Releasing the pedal disables travel and applies the brake.

Parking

To park the truck, do the following: 1. Lower the forks all the way (in most cases, the forks will not touch the floor). 2. Turn the key OFF. Remove the key from the key switch.

! WARNING Never park this truck on a ramp or slope.

Entering an Aisle

To enter an aisle: 1. Center the load (from side to side) in the aisle you’re traveling. 2. Turn the steering wheel to pivot the truck on the load wheel nearest the corner being turned.

3-6

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 3: Operating Instructions Operator’s Daily Checklist

3. As the rear of the truck swings toward the center of the aisle, gradually begin returning the drive wheel to the straight-ahead position. 4. When the truck is aligned with the aisle entrance, proceed into the aisle.

Operating the Truck on a Ramp

To operate the truck on a ramp: 1. While carrying a load, the load should be upgrade when ascending or descending a ramp. 2. If the truck is empty (no load on forks), the forks should be downgrade when ascending or descending. 3. If the ramp is a movable dockboard, ensure it is of the proper width and capacity, and securely fastened before traveling on it. While on the ramp, operate the truck slowly and smoothly to prevent jarring the dockboard out of position.

! WARNING Never elevate a load with forks tilted down. Never travel with load elevated more than necessary to clear the wheels. Failure to obey proper methods of ramp operation results in a lack of truck stability which can be extremely dangerous. Ensure the truck is square with the ramp before ascending or descending. Never turn on a ramp.

Travel Speed and Lift Limits

The speed of the truck and its lift speed can be limited by the following: Cause

PDMM-0058

Effect

Power panel temperature too hot

Speed reduced

Power panel overheated

Traction system disabled

Forks are elevated above 204 in. (5182 mm)

EV100LX Control Panel The Reach Truck has variable speed ranges in both forward and reverse directions. Infinite selection of speeds is obtained through the use of a main Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR). The SCR is turned ON and OFF to control the flow of electricity to the drive motor; the ON and OFF time varies from 1.8 to 20 milliseconds as shown in the following table: Creep Speed

Top Speed

ON

1.8 milliseconds

20 milliseconds

OFF

1.8 milliseconds

Because of a small voltage drop across the SCR, maximum speed is obtained by bypassing the SCR and connecting the drive motor directly across the battery using the 1A contactor.

Chapter 4: Theory of Operation System Components

System Components The following system components are described: • Silicon Controlled Rectifiers (SCR) • Diode Rectifiers • Thermal Protector (TP)

Silicon Controlled Rectifiers (SCR)

The SCR is basically an electrically controlled ON/OFF switch. The SCR has a: • Positive side (anode) • Negative side (cathode) • Gate When the SCR is gated, current can pass through; when the SCR is turned OFF, no current can pass through. NOTE: In the schematic diagrams, current flows in the direction the arrow is pointing. The SCR is turned ON by applying the correct voltage to the rectifier control lead. It is turned OFF in two ways: 1. By placing on the negative side of the SCR, a positive charge that is greater than the battery positive. 2. By placing equal charges (both positive and negative) on both sides of the SCR. There are three SCR’s in the EV100LX Control; although each works in the same manner, each serves a different function.

#1 Rectifier (REC1) Chopper SCR

#2 Rectifier (REC2) Commutating SCR

PDMM-0058

The #1 rectifier (REC1) is the main rectifier in the power circuit and provides the switching effect for the current flowing through the drive motor. The power flows as shown in the following table: When the rectifier is...

Power...

ON

Flows through the drive motor

OFF

Is OFF

The #2 rectifier (REC2) is a switching device used with the capacitor to turn OFF the #1 rectifier (REC1).

4-3


Chapter 4: Theory of Operation

Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

System Components

#5 Rectifier (REC5) Charging SCR

The #5 rectifier (REC5) is used as the 1-C capacitor charging switch.

Diode Rectifiers

Diode rectifiers are one-way electrical check valves similar to SCR’s except they have no gate. Current flow is in the direction of the arrow on the diagram. The #3 and #4 rectifiers (REC3 and REC4) in the power circuit are diode rectifiers.

#3 Rectifier (REC3) Free Wheeling

The #3 rectifier (REC3) is called the flyback diode because it is used in the flyback process. When the #1 rectifier (REC1) is turned OFF, the flyback diode directs current from the fields to the motor armature so that the armature will continue to rotate. The #3 rectifier (REC3) differs from the #1 rectifier (REC1) because it does not require gate voltage to be turned ON. It will conduct current any time the voltage polarity is correct across the stud and pigtail.

#4 Rectifier (REC4) Plugging

The #4 rectifier (REC4) is called the plugging diode because it functions during the plugging operation. It functions similarly to the #3 diode in that it is a simple diode and conducts current any time the voltage of the correct polarity is across the stud and pigtail. The #4 rectifier (REC4) acts as a sensing device for controlled plugging, which is a means of slowing the truck electrically using the motor instead of the brake.

Reactor (Coil T3/ T4)

The reactor has only one winding and builds voltage upon itself; it is used to shut OFF the #1 rectifier (REC1).

Capacitor 1-C

The 1-C capacitor acts as a storage cell for voltage; the stored charge is released by the #2 rectifier (REC2) to turn OFF the #1 rectifier (REC1).

Choke X1

The choke is a retarding device placed in the circuit to slow down current surges through the #2 rectifier (REC2). The choke controls and extends the discharge of the capacitor.

4-4

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 4: Theory of Operation System Components

Filters REC22, REC23, REC24, REC25

The filters protect the SCRs and diodes from voltage surges during turn ON and turn OFF cycles. The #1 rectifier (REC1) does not have a filter.

Thermal Protector (TP)

The thermal protector is a heat sensitive variable resistor used to protect the #1 rectifier (REC1) by slowing down the number of pulses to REC1 when it becomes overheated.

Sensor (Sensor 1)

The sensor is a monitoring device for the main card that tells the card how many amperes are crossing the armature. The lengths of the sensor wires are calibrated as well as the distances between their weld points. If these distances are changed, the truck might not operate properly. If these wires are damaged or broken, the entire unit must be replaced.

Control Features

Control Features The following briefly describes the features of the EV100LX SolidState Control System. Many of the system features are programmable. See “Troubleshooting” on page 6-1 for information and precautions.

Creep Speed

Creep speed is the rate at which the main SCR (REC1) is turned ON or OFF when the throttle is at its slowest speed position. It is adjustable to meet specific customer needs (Function 2, see Table 6-4 on page 626). Top speed is fixed by the controller.

Controlled Acceleration

Controlled acceleration is the pace at which the controller increases the percent of ON time of the main SCR (REC1). It controls the time required to go from creep speed to 96% applied battery voltage to the drive motor on hard acceleration. The 1A contactor will automatically close 0.2 seconds after the controlled acceleration stops and the speed voltage input is less than 0.5 volts. Controlled acceleration is adjustable from 0.1 to 22 seconds (Function 3, see Table 6-4, “Handset Programmable Functions,” on page 6-4).

Current Limit

The current limit monitors the current through the motor circuit. The motor current includes the flyback current and can exceed 2 to 3 times the battery current. When heavy motor loading takes place, this feature overrides the throttle command and limits the average current to the programmed value (Function 4, see Table 6-4 on page 6-26). The current limit setting is based on the maximum thermal rating of REC1 and the peak voltage of capacitor 1-C. When the main SCR (REC1) shuts OFF and stops conducting, the magnetic field in the drive motor collapses. Because the magnetic field collapses while moving across a set of windings, it induces a current of opposite polarity voltage. This voltage continues to drive the armature during the OFF time of the SCR. The average motor current is the sum of the flyback and the amount conducted by the SCR.

Plugging

4-6

Plugging lets the operator change the direction the truck is traveling without coming to a stop first. When the direction control is reversed, the truck comes to a smooth stop and gradually accelerates in the opposite direction. Easing back on the throttle during the plug

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 4: Theory of Operation Control Features

reduces the severity (increasing the stopping distance), and advancing the throttle increases the severity (reducing the stopping distance). The severity of the change is adjustable (see Function 5, in Table 6-4 on page 6-26). Plugging is based on the principle that the motor can also be used as a generator. When the controller senses that the operator has changed directional command during truck movement, it automatically puts the truck in plugging mode. During plugging mode the opposite direction contactor closes; the controller slowly pulses the motor fields so that a magnetic field is produced. The movement of the armature through this field generates an opposite polarity voltage which continues to drive the motor. The magnetic field, however, tends to slow the armature down as it tries to turn. The amount of "ON time" of the main SCR (REC1) during the slow pulsing controls the magnetic field strength, and thus the distance over which the truck continues to plug before starting to accelerate in the opposite direction.

1A Current Dropout

The 1A current dropout feature provides smooth transition from the main SCR to the 1A bypass. It also prevents arcing and burning of the 1A bypass contactor tips. It keeps the main SCR (REC1) pulsing during the pickup and dropout of the contactor. The dropout value is adjustable (see Function 6, in Table 6-4 on page 6-26). When the controller has dropped out of the 1A contactor due to excess current, the control handle must be returned to neutral to unlock the dropout circuit and allow the controller to pick up the 1A contactor again.

Speed Limit 1 (SL1) and Speed Limit 3 (SL3)

Speed Limit 1 (SL1) and Speed Limit 3 (SL3) can be adjusted (maximum battery volts to the motor) through Functions 11 and 13 (see Table 6-4 on page 6-26). The speed limit 2 function is not used. SL1 and SL3 speed limit switches are normally closed switches connected to battery negative; switch opening enables the respective speed limit. A function setting of 0 units disables speed limit functions and allows top speed.

Static Return to OFF

The Static Return to OFF built-in feature forces the operator to return the control handle to neutral anytime the operator leaves the truck. If the deadman switch or key switch is opened, the controller will shut OFF and cannot be restarted until the control handle is returned to neutral.

PDMM-0058

4-7


Chapter 4: Theory of Operation

Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Control Features

Accelerator Volts Hold-Off

The Accelerator Volts Hold-Off checks the voltage level at the accelerator input (TB1) whenever the deadman switch is activated. If the voltage is less than 2.5 volts, the truck will not start. This assures that if there is an input-related failure, the truck will not start up at full speed. This feature is not adjustable.

Coil Driver Modules

The Coil Driver Modules are internal to the logic card. These are the power devices that operate the F, R, and 1A contactor coils. The drivers open or close the coils on command from the logic card. The contactor coils are 24-volt, which reduces current requirements. The card has internal spike protection, eliminating the need for external suppressors. All modules are equipped with reverse battery protection.

Thermal Cutback

4-8

The Thermal Cutback feature prevents the truck from learching. If the controller is excessively loaded for a long period of time, it will overheat. When this occurs, the controller will cut back current flow to the motor and reduce truck speed. If overheating is severe, this feature prevents the 1A contactor from closing, thereby avoiding truck lurching because of the lower control range speed and the transition to full bypass speed.

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 4: Theory of Operation Control Features

Pulse Monitor Trip (PMT)

The Pulse Monitor Trip (PMT) contains three subset features that prevent the controller from operating if fault conditions exist that would allow uncontrolled (runaway) speed of the truck. These features are: 1. Look Ahead 2. Look Again 3. Automatic Look Again and Reset

Table 4-1: Pulse Monitor Trip (PMT) Features

Feature Look Ahead

Description The PMT circuit will look ahead to see if certain faults exist prior to start-up and will not allow start-up if: • REC1 is shorted • 1A contactor tips are welded • Forward or reverse contactor coil drivers are shorted • REC3 is shorted

Look Again

The PMT circuit will shut down the control during operation (opening the forward or reverse contactor) if: • REC1 fails to turn OFF • 1A contactor tips remain closed when they should be open

Automatic Look Again and Reset

After opening the forward or reverse contactor, the PMT circuit will check for a fault and, if none is found, reclose the directional contactor. If the fault still exists, the directional contactor will open and remain open. If 1A closes before a second REC1 failure, the look again counter will automatically reset, eliminating the inconvenience of resetting the PMT with the key switch if the trip is caused by random noise. When the PMT circuit prevents the forward or reverse contactors from closing, the PMT circuit can be reset by cycling the key switch.

Internal Resistance Compensation

PDMM-0058

All batteries have a small amount of internal resistance and this value varies significantly. Additionally, internal resistance of individual trucks vary. This feature allows adjustment of the controller to compensate for these varying resistances (Function 14, see Table 6-4 on page 6-26). Adjustment of this function will also improve accuracy of the Battery Discharge Indicator.

4-9


Chapter 4: Theory of Operation

Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Control Features

Steer Pump Time Delay

Actuation of the steer pump contactor is done through the controller; this allows the time delay for opening of the contactor to be adjusted (Function 18, Table 6-4 on page 6-26). The controller is set to open the steer pump contactor after the directional switch has been returned to neutral for 3.5 seconds. There is also an override function that drops the contactor out after the deadman switch has been opened for 1.5 seconds.

Stored Fault Code

This is a function register (Function 1, see Table 6-4 on page 6-26) that contains the last fault that shut down truck operation (PMT fault that is reset by cycling the key switch). This status code will be overwritten each time a new status code occurs and can be cleared from memory by adjusting the value to zero.

Battery Discharge Indicator

The Battery Discharge Indicator provides accurate battery state of charge information and supplies passive and active warning signals to the operator. Voltage range is adjustable for accuracy (Function 15, see Table 6-4 on page 6-26).

Hour Meter

The hour meter is built into the controller card and will automatically record hours on the deadman switch. Each time the key switch is turned ON, the display shows 8888 briefly to check the LEDs for failures. When the key switch is turned OFF, the hours will be displayed briefly.

On-board Diagnostics

The EV100LX logic card detects the system current operating status that can be displayed on either the dash display or the handset. There are approximately 30 status codes available; see “GE Status Codes” on page 6-31.

4-10

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 4: Theory of Operation Basic SCR Controller Circuit Operation

Basic SCR Controller Circuit Operation The following paragraphs provide a brief overview of the SCR controller operating cycle. Refer to the basic schematic drawing (Figure 4-2, “Travel System Simplified Schematic (EV100LX),” on page 4-14).

Energizing the Control Circuit

The control circuit is energized by closing the key switch, the deadman switch, and moving the control handle to forward or reverse command position. This applies power to the EV100LX Controller and turns on the PMT driver, which closes the selected directional contactor and completes the circuit to the drive motor.

Gate Pulse to REC2

The control circuit then supplies a gate pulse to REC2, turning it on to a conducting state, allowing current to flow from the battery through 1C, 1X, REC2, motor field, motor armature, sensor, and back to the battery. After 1C charges, REC2 shuts OFF through lack of holding a current. The control card checks that 1C is charged and unlocks the gate to REC1 and REC5.

Gate Pulse to REC1

The control card then supplies a gate pulse to REC1, turning it on to a conducting state, allowing current to flow from the battery through REC1, motor field, motor armature, sensor, and back to the battery. REC5 turns on and allows current to flow to T4-T3, 1C, REC1, REC5 to T4-T3. This current charges the bottom of 1C positive with respect to the battery positive bus. This charging cycle occurs in less than 1 millisecond (.001 second), and REC5 shuts OFF. The charge is stored on the capacitor until it is time to turn OFF REC1.

Firing REC2

Current continues to flow in REC1 until the control card fires REC2. When REC2 conducts, capacitor 1C discharges around the circuit composed of 1C, 1X, REC2, and REC1. This discharge current opposes the battery current through REC1 so that the resultant current is zero. With reverse voltage across REC1, REC1 is turned OFF. Current continues to flow in the REC2, 1C, motor, and battery loop until the capacitor (card terminal 14) is fully charged negative. This charge exceeds battery voltage by an amount which is a function of peak motor current, and REC2 turns OFF.

PDMM-0058

4-11


Chapter 4: Theory of Operation

Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Basic SCR Controller Circuit Operation

OFF Time

During the OFF time, the energy stored in the motor (by virtue of the motor inductance) will cause current to circulate through the motor around the loop formed by REC3, thus providing "flyback" current. The motor current, therefore, is composed of both battery current and the inductive flyback current. It should be noted that the average motor current measured will be higher than the average battery current. The SCR control, in effect, converts battery current at battery volts into a higher motor current and lower motor volts.

Oscillation Frequency

The time for the next ON and OFF cycle to start is determined by the time that the control card takes to oscillate. The frequency of oscillation is controlled by the control handle, interface card, and automatic circuitry in the control card. Slow speed is obtained by having 2.5 volts or greater at TB1 (speed control input). As the voltage decreases, the speed of the motor increases. The SCR circuit is capable of delivering approximately 95% speed. For full speed operation, the 1A contactor is closed to apply full battery voltage across the motor.

Oscillator Features

The oscillator section of the control card has two adjustable features and one fixed feature. The creep speed can be adjusted by the handset unit. Top speed is fixed by the card and is obtained with the voltage at TB1 at zero. The percent ON time has a range of approximately 5 to 95%. The center operating condition of the oscillator is at 50% ON time with a nominal 1.8 milliseconds ON time and 1.8 milliseconds OFF time. This corresponds to a maximum operating frequency of about 300 hertz. At creep, the ON time will decrease to approximately 0.8 milliseconds while OFF time will be about 20 milliseconds. At full SCR operation, this condition is reversed (short OFF time, long ON time). The variation of ON and OFF time of the oscillator produces the optimum frequencies throughout the SCR range. The rate at which the oscillator might increase its percent ON time is limited by the "controlled acceleration" feature. The minimum time required to go from creep speed to 80-85% ON time is adjustable from 0.1 to 22.0 seconds.

Sequence 1: Truck at Rest

The schematic on page A-14 shows the truck in an "at rest" condition. This means all switches are open or no current is flowing through the system. This schematic should be used to follow the sequential theory provided in the following paragraphs. The travel system can be divided into three major areas: • Power Circuit - all the components and heavy power cables used to carry current to the drive motor. • Control Circuit - wiring and components used to control speed and direction of the truck. • Accessory Circuits - wiring and components that are peripheral to the drive control, such as the horn, operator’s display, and so on. These are described separately in this chapter.

Sequence 5: Directional Contactor Closure

The interface card now finally closes the directional contactors by completing the path from battery negative to the coils through the drivers internal in the card. This still does not provide current to the drive motor because we have not turned on the REC1 by way of a gate lead signal. One more step must be taken: the control performs a capacitor precharge. This is done by sending a gate signal to the REC2 and turning it ON. When this happens, we have the following current path: 1. Battery positive through the FU2 fuse to one side of the capacitor. 2. Across the 1C capacitor and through the X1 choke. 3. Through the REC2 to the normally open (now closed) forward contactor tips. 4. Through the drive motor fields and then through the normally closed reverse contactor tips. This is important to keep in mind because technicians often overlook the fact that the reverse contactor can prevent the truck from running in forward and vice versa. This sometimes creates a lot of wasted troubleshooting time. 5. A path is then completed through the drive motor armature and Sensor 1 to battery negative. The current involved is too small to power the drive motor. This entire process takes less than .001 seconds (1 millisecond). 6. When the capacitor becomes fully saturated, current flow stops. At this point the capacitor is at battery volts. The voltage potential on both sides of REC2 are at battery negative and REC2 shuts OFF. This precharge is monitored by the control card by the voltage on the orange wire on pin 14 of the Z plug, in comparison to the white wire on pin 7 of the Z plug. If this precharge fails to take place, the control will not turn ON REC1 because it indicates a fault. Such a fault would mean the capacitor cannot be charged enough to turn OFF REC1. This could mean a bad capacitor, open REC2, or some other problem. This condition must be corrected before the truck will run.

Sequence 6: REC1 Turn ON

When inputs are all in place and the safety tests are complete, the control will send the gate signal to the REC1, turning it ON. The path to battery negative is now complete and while REC1 is ON, full battery voltage is available to turn the armature. The current flow path is as follows: 1. Battery positive through fuse FU2. 2. Through REC1 to the normally open forward contactor tips that are now closed. 3. Through the drive motor fields and the normally closed reverse contactor tips. 4. Through the drive motor armature and current sensor to battery negative.

Sequence 7: REC5 Turn ON

As soon as REC1 is turned ON, the control prepares to turn it OFF. Remember at creep speed, there is only 1.8 milliseconds to do this. The card sends a gate signal to REC5 to turn it ON. The capacitor is already charged to battery voltage. Now there is another path of current flow available while REC1 is conducting. That path is as follows: 1. Current flows from the previously charged positive side of the capacitor through REC1 then through REC5 to the T4 reactor winding connection. 2. Current then goes through the reactor winding to the previously charged negative side of the capacitor. 3. This process discharges the capacitor through the reactor windings and builds a magnetic field in the reactor windings. Note that this current flow through the reactor winding is from the capacitor and not from the battery. When the capacitor is discharged, flow through REC5 stops and REC5 turns OFF.

Chapter 4: Theory of Operation Operation of the Travel System

Sequence 8: Reverse Charging the 1C Capacitor

When current stops flowing through the reactor, the magnetic field collapses. When this magnetic field collapses over the reactor windings, a voltage spike is generated. This voltage spike is higher than the battery and reverse from the polarity of the current, which was flowing through the reactor. The reactor then has acted as a power source. The amperage is lower than that which went through the reactor originally, but the voltage is higher, which is what is important. Because the two sides of the 1C capacitor are electrically isolated, the capacitor is being charged by the reverse polarity voltage generated when the reactor field collapses. This higher than battery voltage results in the battery positive side of the capacitor being negative in relation to the reactor side. For example, the battery side of the 1C is at 36-volts positive, but the reactor side might be at 100 volts positive. This reverse voltage spike generated in the reactor happens anytime a winding is used to create a magnetic field. This is why such components as contactor coils, horns, relays, back-up alarms, and so on, must be filtered to prevent stray spikes from getting into the control card. Such stray voltage spikes can cause damages or malfunctioning of the control system.

Sequence 9: REC2 Turn ON and REC1 Turn OFF

The control monitors the throttle position and decides it is time to turn OFF REC1. A signal is then sent to the REC2 gate to turn it ON. A path for current flow is then opened from: 1. The more positive side of the 1C capacitor through the X1 choke to the REC2. 2. The current tries to complete the circuit to the more negative side of the 1C capacitor. 3. When this occurs, the voltage potentials for REC1 are reversed and REC1 is shut OFF. Some of this voltage might also flow through the motor back to battery negative. This current is very small, but the voltage is high enough to turn OFF REC1. 4. The X1 choke is in the circuit to help protect REC2. It slows the voltage down from the 1C capacitor so the voltage surge is slower helping to prevent an REC2 failure. This also helps insure that REC1 sees this high voltage potential and has time to react and turn OFF. 5. The 1C capacitor then again becomes charged to battery potential as it was during initial precharge: battery positive on the battery positive side and battery negative on the REC2 side. When this occurs, REC2 stops conducting and shuts OFF.

Operation of the Travel System

Sequence 10: Free-Wheeling Current

The drive motor fields use a magnetic field generated by the current from REC1 to run the armature. When we turn OFF REC1, current stops flowing through the fields. The magnetic field collapses around the field windings. A reverse polarity voltage is induced across the field windings. This energy is harnessed and the current is used to continue to turn the drive motor by means of the Free-Wheeling Diode or REC3. REC3 is a simple diode and unlike REC1, REC2, and REC5, it does not have to have a gate signal to conduct. When the fields collapse and the induced current is evident, the current flow path is: 1. From the S2 field connection which is now positive through the normally closed reverse contactor tips. 2. Through the drive motor armature causing it to turn and go through the current sensor. 3. Through REC3 since this is now a positive potential, back through the normally open (now closed) forward contactor tips. Notice that although the field induced current is a reverse polarity voltage when compared to battery voltage, it goes through the fields in the same direction, thus maintaining the same direction of armature rotation. The free-wheeling current is in effect free, and by using it, we are able to run an SCR system more effectively. Otherwise we would have to find a way to absorb this voltage to prevent motor problems. Free wheeling also smoothes over the time between pulses so the truck runs without a jerking action. This entire series of events starts all over again with the entire sequence having consumed approximately 30 milliseconds.

Chapter 4: Theory of Operation Operation of the Travel System

Sequence 11: 1A or Bypass Contactor Operation

All electrical devices have some resistance, and semi-conductors (like SCRs) have more resistance than simple power tips on a contactor. To get the maximum possible speed, the SCR type system uses a contactor to bypass the SCR system and connect the battery directly to the drive motor. This also allows the SCR system components an opportunity to cool down and helps prevent failures due to excessive heat. This is done by: 1. The control looks at the throttle voltage on pin 10 at TB1 to verify that full speed is being requested. When the throttle voltage falls below .5 volts, control will allow the bypass timer to start. 2. When controlled acceleration has achieved maximum REC1 ON time, the card will complete the connection to battery negative and energize the 1A contactor coil. The time it takes is determined by the preset programming in the card. 3. The REC1 continues to pulse until the 1A contactor has had time to close. This prevents arcing and burning of the power tips. The control also uses this full power transition when the operator lifts his foot up and the 1A contactor opens. 4. The current path is through the FU2 fuse, 1A contactor tips, normally open (now closed) forward contactor tips, the drive motor fields, the normally closed reverse contactor tips, the drive motor armature, and the sensor back to battery negative. 5. The control monitors the current going through the drive motor at all times by the voltage drop across the sensor. Because there is no control over the current when the truck is in 1A or bypass, there is a potential for abuse resulting in motor damage. If a truck being operated in 1A encounters a situation where current levels get to the point of possible motor damage, the control would drop out the 1A contactor and put the truck back in SCR mode. The motor then will be limited to the current levels programmed into the card. The point at which the control drops out the 1A contactor is preset by the programming in the card. When this 1A drop out occurs, there is not full power transition. The result is arcing and burning of the 1A tips. This is helpful so that when troubleshooting a truck, you will know if the 1A drop out has been occurring due to excessive current draws.

Operation of the Travel System

Sequence 12: Controlled Plugging

Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) systems, including the EV100LX, use a method of electrically braking called "plugging." While driving, the operator can select the opposite direction and the truck will come to a controlled stop and then accelerate in the other direction. This is done by: 1. When traveling forward, the operator moves the directional control to reverse. The forward contactor drops out and the reverse contactor is closed. 2. The control sensing this directional control change, while the motor is turning, will not begin pulsing REC1 the way it did during normal acceleration. Instead, it will pulse at a very slow rate. This pulsing is just enough to generate a small magnetic field in the drive motor fields. The armature, moving by virtue of momentum through this magnetic field, becomes a generator. This current is in reverse polarity in comparison to the battery. 3. During the relatively long periods between pulses, the current being generated travels through the armature to keep the motor traveling in the same direction. The current flow for this current is from the A2 or normally negative side of the armature through the sensor and plugging diodes (REC4) back to the armature A1 connection. 4. The slight magnetic field which is created during REC1 pulsing, also works to gradually slow down the truck. The rate at which this takes place is determined in part by the programming in the card. The feature called "pedal position plugging" also helps control this. The further the directional control is advanced, the faster the truck slows down. In this way, the operator has some control over the rate at which the truck stops independent of the card’s preset programming.

Chapter 4: Theory of Operation Lift/Lower System

Lift/Lower System The truck is equipped with the Variable Speed Lift/Lower lift system. The rate of lift/lower is controlled by a manual spool valve which is mechanically coupled to the control handle.

System Overview

All inputs and outputs related to the lift/lower system are controlled by the Interface Card. As the operator moves the control handle, it will activate either the lift (S20) or lower (S21) switch. The rate of lift/lower will be determined by the mechanical movement of the spool valve. The Interface Card determines what actions are required based on inputs from the operator and from system feedback. The Interface Card sends a current through Lift (S20) or Lower (S21), As either switch is activated by the operator, a voltage is sent back to the Interface Card. As the lift/lower controller is moved and Lift (S20) or Lower (S21) switch is activated, a voltage is sensed by the Interface Card.

Unique System Features

PDMM-0058

If the control is moved from lift to lower, the Interface Card will not allow the carriage to lower until the lift pump motor has stopped. The Interface Card monitors lift pump motor rotation (EMF) at JPS4-3. This allows smooth, controlled movement of the carriage without sudden "bumps." The length of the delay will depend on the oil viscosity, pump/motor tightness and temperature, and the load on the carriage.

4-23


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 4: Theory of Operation Lift/Lower System

Components

The lift/Lower components consist of: • 24-volt Lift Motor. • Lift Pump Contactor—Supplies battery potential to the lift motor when the contactor is energized (contacts closed). • Fixed Displacement Gear Pump—The pump is mated to the lift motor via a spline on the input shaft of the pump. • Lift/Lower Manifold—The lift/lower manifold contains: •

High Pressure Relief Valve—This limits the maximum hydraulic pressure which the lift system might encounter.

Check Valves—Provide proper control of hydraulic flow.

• Reservoir—The capacity of the reservoir is 6.36 gallons (24.0 liters), with a usable amount of 4.47 gallons (17.0 liters). Values are approximate. The reservoir has a return-line filter rated at 10 microns. The filter body contains a bypass valve having a cracking pressure of 15 psi (103 kPa). The filter element is a replaceable spin-on type. • Lift Cylinders—The lift cylinder transforms hydraulic pressure into mechanical motion. • Lift Chains—The heavy duty lift chain is constructed of 3/4 in. pitch, 4 x 4 laced leaf chain. The lift chains comply with ANSI 829.8 requirements. • Interface Card—Controls the load holding solenoid and lift contactor in response to commands sent to it.

Functionality

This section describes how to use the lift/lower system: 1. Moving the lift/lower control out of the neutral position to either the right Lift (S20) or left Lower (S21) activates a switch which causes a voltage. This voltage goes into the Interface Card at JPS1-15 (Lift) or JPS1-12 (Lower). The Interface Card determines whether a lift or lower operation is desired based on the switch that was activated by the operator’s input. 2. If a lift has been requested, the Interface Card will turn on the Pcoil driver which provides a ground for the P contactor at JPS4-2. As the P contactor is energized, voltage is applied to the lift motor MP and the carriage will lift. The lift motor/lift pump assembly supplies hydraulic pressure and flow to the lift system. NOTE: The EV100 will cause the lift function to be disabled if a low battery condition exists. When the battery is 90% discharged, the voltage at JPS3-4 will be 0 to 0.6 VDC. 3. If a lower has been requested, the Interface Card will activate SOL L/H, the load holding solenoid. When this solenoid is activated, hydraulic fluid will flow from the lift cylinders back to the reservoir.

Chapter 4: Theory of Operation Braking

Braking The braking process works as follows (see Figure 4-3): 1. With the deadman pedal in its normal UP position, the master cylinder is deactivated; therefore, the slave cylinder is depressurized allowing the brake spring to keep the brake applied. 2. Stepping on the deadman pedal strokes the master cylinder, which increases the pressure in the slave cylinder, pushing against the brake spring and releasing the brake. 3. Just before the pressure releases the brake, the deadman switch S2 is actuated, supplying power to the hour meter and travel circuits.

Chapter 5: Maintenance Maintenance Practices

5. Avoid fire hazards. Have adequate fire fighting equipment in the maintenance area. 6. DO NOT use open flame or sparking devices around the battery. The gasses given off by the battery are highly explosive. 7. Use extreme caution when using flammable cleaning solutions. 8. After working on the truck, test all controls and functions to assure proper operation. More information pertaining to operating and maintenance procedures can be obtained from: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) 22 Law Drive, Box 2900 Fairfield, New Jersey 07007-2900 Ask for the current version of ASME B56.1

Jacking the Truck

Any time the truck is jacked up for any reason, the service technician should take extra time and caution to ensure that the truck will not tip over or otherwise pose a hazard to himself or others. Figure 5-1 on page 5-4 illustrates the correct jacking points on the truck frame. Whenever the truck is jacked up: • There should not be any load on the forks. • The forks should be lowered all the way to the lowest possible point. • Disconnect the battery and remove the key. • Always use solid blocks to support the truck. • Never rely on jacks or chains to hold the truck. When the truck is jacked up at the tractor end of the truck, it should not be lifted more than 2 in. (50.8 mm) off the floor. When jacking on the side of the truck, the load wheels should not be lifted off the floor more than 1/2 in. (12.7 mm).

! WARNING Attach a chain to the top of the mast and an overhead hoist to stabilize the mast if jacking higher than described in this procedure.

! WARNING Before jacking the truck, check the A-frame bolt (shown in the lower left-hand corner of Figure 5-1). It should be securely in place. The hole in the truck frame that this bolt passes through should not be excessively worn. If the bolt is missing, or if the hole is excessively worn, the A-frame will not be held in place when the truck is jacked. The A-frame could pivot down and let the springs fall out. PDMM-0058

Before performing any electric resistance welding on the truck, do the following: 1. Turn the key switch off. 2. Remove the battery. 3. Disconnect all cables going to the Interface Card. 4. Disconnect all cables from the EV100LX Control Card.

Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electronic circuit boards used in the system are sensitive and can be damaged by static discharge.

! CAUTION Before doing any welding on the truck, follow the procedures in “Welding Procedures” on page 5-4. Static discharges are created when non-conductive material (plastic bags opened, synthetic clothing, plastic-soled shoes) are moved or separated. The built-up static will discharge through nearby conductors such as the human skin. The static discharge could appear as a spark.

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 5: Maintenance Maintenance Practices

! CAUTION It is very important to note that potentially damaging static levels for electronic components are not always felt by a human or appear as a spark. This condition could happen when a person with a static charge potential touches a circuit board. If the circuit board is not being held properly, sensitive components on the circuit board will be damaged. When sensitive components are handled, protective measures must be taken to prevent damage which would result in the immediate failure or degradation of the component.

Proper Handling of Static Sensitive Devices

A moving lift truck or electric motor can build up a large charge that will discharge slowly after the truck or motor has stopped moving. It is important that proper precautions be taken to assure that electronic components are not damaged. Figure 5-2 shows the proper and improper methods for holding a circuit board.

! CAUTION To avoid creating a destructive static discharge, the technician should be grounded or discharged BEFORE touching a circuit card.

Maintenance Practices

Discharging the Truck

Before removing a circuit card, disconnect the battery then discharge the truck. Discharge the truck by touching it with your hand or attaching a device to the frame of the truck which is connected to earth ground. The device should have a resistance of 500,000 to 2,000,000 ohms to eliminate any potential for shock hazard.

Removing the Circuit Card

After discharging the truck, the circuit card can be removed as follows: 1. Place the static control wrist strap around your wrist. It should fit snugly. 2. Connect the ground lead to the Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) receptacle on the truck and the loose end to the wrist strap. 3. Get into the correct position to remove the circuit card. DO NOT move your feet. 4. Remove the circuit card using the correct card handling method shown in Figure 5-2 on page 5-5. 5. When replacing a circuit card or an EPROM on a card, place the circuit card immediately in an anti-static bag. 6. If replacing an EPROM, take the card to a clean area and place the card on a surface which is conductive to antistatic. Use a wrist strap having a nominal resistance of 1,000,000 ohms (minimum 500,000 ohms) connected to common ground with the work surface.

! CAUTION EPROM pins are delicate, and if mishandled, can be easily bent or damaged. Before removing an EPROM, note the position of the beveled corner. The new EPROM must be installed in the same orientation. Incorrectly installed EPROMS could result in damage.

Chapter 5: Maintenance Battery Maintenance

Battery Maintenance This section contains essential battery maintenance information. The battery is the energy source for the truck. Its condition should be of primary importance to the user to achieve maximum satisfactory service. Lack of proper battery maintenance will lead to short battery life and other component problems (for example, motors, contactors, and so on). The lead-acid batteries furnish all power requirements of the truck. Most industrial batteries can be expected to function properly for more than five years. Proper maintenance should extend battery life and increase truck efficiency.

! WARNING Wear eye protection.

How Batteries Get Damaged

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 process occurs: 1. The top of the battery becomes wet and stays wet, because 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 affects battery performance and truck operation. 3. The acid also causes corrosion of cell posts, nuts, connectors, and the steel battery case.

! WARNING

Removing a Battery

When removing a battery, ALWAYS use a battery stand or equivalent material handling equipment. 1. Remove one battery gate, usually the one on the side of the battery connector. 2. Ensure that the opposite battery gate is locked in place. 3. Disconnect the battery connectors/cables from the battery. 4. Using a battery stand or equivalent material handling equipment, slide the battery out of the open end of the battery compartment. 5. Make sure the removed battery is properly stored.

! WARNING

Installing a Battery

Take precautions not to jam or cut the battery cables during installation of the battery as this could result in a short, which could cause a fire or a battery explosion.

! WARNING When installing a battery, always be sure that it is fully charged before placing the truck into operation. Ensure that both gates are properly installed on the truck. 1. Remove one battery gate, usually the one on the side of the battery connector. 2. Ensure that the opposite battery gate is locked in place. 3. Slide the battery into the compartment from a battery stand or equivalent material handling equipment, making sure the battery cable ends up in the correct position for connection to the truck connector. 4. Once the battery is in place, install battery gate. Ensure that both battery gates are securely locked into position. 5. Adjust both battery gates to prevent battery side-to-side movement during truck operation.

Chapter 5: Maintenance Battery Maintenance

Cleaning the Battery

To clean the battery, do the following in an approved battery wash area: 1. Make a soda solution by mixing 1 lb. (0.45 Kg) baking soda and 1/2 gal. (1.89 l) of hot water. 2. Tighten the battery vent caps. 3. Use a brush with flexible bristles and apply the soda solution over the top of the battery. Leave the solution there until all “fizzing” stops, which indicates that the acid has been neutralized. 4. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. 5. Blow the battery case dry using compressed air (30 psi [206 kPa] max). NOTE: Wet covers can be an indication of overfilling, leaky seals at posts, or excessive gassing during charge. When observed, the cause should be determined and the adverse conditions corrected.

Testing the Battery Electrical Leakage To Frame

To test the battery electrical leakage: 1. Disconnect the battery from the truck. 2. Use a voltmeter set on the 50-volt scale. 3. Attach the meter leads: negative to truck frame, positive to battery positive. The voltmeter should show no voltage or at most a 2- to 3-volt reading. If there is more than a 2- to 3-volt reading, clean the battery and battery rollers. Have the battery checked for internal voltage leakage. 4. Attach the meter leads: negative to battery negative, positive to truck frame. The voltmeter should show no voltage or at most a 2to 3-volt reading. If there is more than a 2- to 3-volt reading, clean the battery and battery rollers. Have the battery checked for internal voltage leakage.

Chapter 5: Maintenance Battery Maintenance

Battery Discharge Indicator (BDI)

The Battery Discharge Indicator (BDI) monitors and remembers the charge level of the battery connected to the truck and prevents excessive discharging of that battery. Operating a truck using a discharged battery can damage both the battery and the electrical components that make up the truck’s electrical system. This feature is adjustable, but should not be set so that it will allow over discharging of the battery. The BDI display is a 3-digit display. During the normal run mode, the EV100LX display indicates the battery state-of-charge. It has a range of 0 to 100% of charge state. When properly adjusted, the display reads as follows: Table 5-5: Battery Charge States

When the display reads... 100

It means... The battery is fully charged. The battery is low.

20 The display blinks as an early operator alert. The battery has no charge.

10

The battery has reached an 80% discharge rate. This is the recommended maximum amount of discharge before recharging. The control disables the pump contactor.

Internal Resistance Compensation

All batteries have a small amount of internal resistance and this value varies significantly. Likewise the internal resistance of individual trucks will vary depending on the size of the power cables, the length of the power cables, the routing of the cables, and so on. The Internal Resistance Compensation feature allows the control to be adjusted to compensate for these varying resistances. This makes the BDI feature much more accurate.

PDMM-0058

5-23


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 5: Maintenance Battery Maintenance

Adjusting the Internal Compensation

To adjust the internal compensation, do the following: 1. With the battery state-of-charge anywhere between 80 and 20, drive the truck for at least 2 minutes at top speed. This will give an accurate battery state-of-charge reading on the display. 2. Record this reading and reference it as the Display reading. 3. Let the truck sit for 5 minutes 4. Get the battery voltage by connecting a voltmeter to the points where the positive and negative battery cables attach to the control panel. 5. Divide this number (battery voltage) by the number of battery cells (18 for a 36-volt battery or 24 for a 48-volt battery): Battery Voltage / No. of Battery Cells = Open Circuit Volts per Cell (18 or 24) This gives the "Open Circuit Volts Per Cell" reading. Using the graph in Figure 5-11, find the intersection point for the display reading and the Open Circuit Volts Per Cell. This corresponds to the compensation achieved by the current IR Comp Function 14 setting (see Table 6-4 on page 6-26). The ideal setting should fall somewhere on the bold line going diagonally across the graph, and it is interpreted as follows:

Table 5-6: Interpreting the Calibration Chart Reading

If the intersection point is...

Then...

Readjust the function to a...

Above the bold line

The compensation is too low and the setting is too high.

Lower setting. Adjust the setting one or two points lower depending on how far above the line your point of intersection was on the graph.

Below the bold line

The compensation is too high and the setting is too low.

Higher setting. Adjust the setting one or two points higher depending on how far below the line your point of intersection was on the graph.

Repeat this procedure and continue readjusting the IR Comp Function 14 until the intersection point is as close to the ideal line as possible. It might be necessary to do this procedure two or three times to get the correct setting.

Charging the Battery

Consult your battery manual for specific charging procedures. When a battery is charged, direct current is passed through the battery cells in the direction opposite of discharge. Before charging a battery, become familiar with the following: • Charging rate, starting rate, and finish rate. • Time available for charge. • Variations in cell voltage. • Avoiding overheating, excessive gassing, or overcharging.

Precautions

Note the following precautions when charging the battery.

! WARNING When charging batteries, observe the following precautions: • Do not smoke, use open flame, or spark-producing devices near the batteries. • Charge in a well-ventilated area to avoid hydrogen gas concentration. • Keep batteries clean; corrosion causes grounds and possibly sparks. • Charge batteries at the rates shown on the battery. • Keep plugs, terminals, cables, and receptacles in good condition to avoid shorts and sparks. • Never lay tools on top of the batteries. • Wear protective clothing and eye protection when handling, checking, or filling batteries. NOTE: Get the maximum use out of each battery by recharging the batteries only when they are effectively discharged. DO NOT routinely recharge batteries when they are only partially discharged; this will decrease battery life. At maximum recommended discharge, the specific gravity should read 1.150 or less.

5-26

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 5: Maintenance Battery Maintenance

Using the Hydrometer

The hydrometer measures the specific gravity of the electrolyte. The specific gravity varies directly with the state-of-charge of a lead-acid battery as follows: Table 5-7: Specific Gravity

Charge

Specific Gravity

100%

1.280-1.300

50%

1.200-1.210

25%

1.150-1.160

0%

1.080

Note: Most industrial deep-cell discharge batteries are considered discharged when 20% of the charge remains (specific gravity of 1.140).

Checking the Specific Gravity

Note that no amount of charging will increase battery capacity or raise the specific gravity above its fully charged level (1.280 to 1.300). To check the specific gravity of the battery, do the following: 1. Insert the nozzle of the hydrometer into the battery cell, and draw enough electrolyte into the tube to permit the float to ride free. 2. Determine the specific gravity of the cell. See Table 5-7. 3. If there is insufficient electrolyte to obtain a hydrometer reading: •

Add just enough water to cover the battery plates. The electrolyte level will rise during charge. Adding too much water before charging the battery will cause electrolyte to spill from the top of the cell.

Now charge the battery and take additional readings.

4. The specific gravity reading for each cell should be taken and recorded on a battery chart. These charts can be obtained from the battery manufacturer. 5. Add water to the cell after completing the charging process. Consult your battery manual for further information.

PDMM-0058

Chapter 5: Maintenance Battery Maintenance

Voltage Check

Take a voltage check on each cell after performing the hydrometer check (page 5-27). Connect the leads of a Simpson Volt/Ohmmeter (VOM) or equivalent to the positive and negative terminals of each cell. VOM readings will vary with the state-of-charge. Table 5-8: VOM Readings

1. Touch the voltmeter leads to the positive and negative terminals of each cell. There should be a reading of at least two volts for each fully charged cell and a variance of no more than 0.2 volts between cells. 2. Record the voltage reading for each cell on the battery maintenance chart.

Adding Water to the Battery

Water must be added to battery cells periodically. The frequency and quantity depend on the water level above the plates and the amount of gassing during charge. Note the following: • Use only approved or distilled water. • Add water after hydrometer and voltmeter readings are taken. • Add water after charging to minimize overfilling. • Always cover the plates entirely. • Keep the outside of the battery clean and dry.

Keeping a 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: • 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: • 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

Chapter 5: Maintenance Maintaining the Motor

Maintaining the Motor All motors are designed to operate with a minimum of maintenance. Sealed bearings are used in all motors, thereby eliminating lubrication. Regular maintenance, along with periodic inspection, help to provide trouble-free motor performance. The following maintenance procedures are described: • Motor Cleaning • Brush Care • Replacing a Brush • Preventing the Motor from Overheating • Motor Stud Terminals • Testing for Open Circuits • Testing for Shorted Circuits • Checking for Armature Shorts • Testing for Grounded Motors

Motor Cleaning

Periodic motor cleaning is essential to prevent overheating and electrical grounds. See Figure 5-12. To clean the motor: 1. Wear safety glasses. 2. Use clean, dry, low pressure air (30 psi, (207 kPa)], to blow carbon dust and other foreign materials from: •

Motor housing

Brush holders

Commutator

Field and armature windings (if accessible)

! CAUTION Never use a chemical solvent to clean the motor because it will carry carbon dust to hard-to-clean areas and cause shorts within the motor. Washing with detergents requires complete disassembly and drying. This should only be attempted by an authorized motor repair shop.

Cleaning the Brushes

To clean the brushes: 1. Position the motors to provide easiest access to brushes. 2. Inspect the brushes in all motors for: Table 5-9: What to Look for When Inspecting the Brushes

Condition

Look for...

Proper Wear

The brush surface should be polished and show even wear.

Overheating

Overheating will be indicated if the brush shunts or brush springs are discolored.

Physical Damage

Inspect the brush holders for damage. Make sure the holders are not loose on the end head or brush holder plate.

Spring Pressure/ Alignment

Check spring pressure: • Insufficient spring pressure will cause excessive arcing and reduced motor performance. Excessive spring pressure will result in premature wear of the commutator. • A brush spring that does not apply even pressure on the center of the brush will cause the brush to wear unevenly.

Freedom of Movement Check for correct clearance and freedom of brush movement within the holder. Be sure connections are clean and tight and that brush wires do not ground the motor frame or armature.

3. Pull the spring scale on a line directly opposite the line of force exerted by the spring while Leather applying a light pull on the paper Loop strip. When the paper strip begins to move freely, the spring scale will be indicating the brush spring tension. Paper

Rotation

Figure 5-13:

Replacing a Brush

4. A spring tension of 30-36 oz. (852-1022 g) for new brushes and springs is acceptable.

Measuring Brush Spring Tension

If any brushes must be replaced, the complete brush set should be replaced. Do not replace just one or two brushes. See “Pin-By-Pin Voltages - EV100LX Travel Control System” on page A-21 for the table listing the minimum brush lengths. When ordering replacements, refer to the motor serial number on the motor nameplate. 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. Where accessible, new brushes should be seated to the commutator curvature. To do this, wrap a piece of #00 sandpaper around the commutator, seating the brush holder, and turning the armature. On smaller motors where space is limited, a brush seating stone can be used. DO NOT use emery cloth to seat brushes. After the brushes are seated, the dust should be blown out of the motor with dry compressed air (30 PSI [207 kPa]).

Chapter 5: Maintenance Maintaining the Motor

Preventing the Motor from Overheating

Most motor overheating can be prevented by understanding the causes and preventions listed below:

! WARNING If an electrical failure or an extreme overload occurs, especially in a totally enclosed motor, personnel should not breathe the fumes which have been generated inside the machine. The heat of the failure arc or overload can generate noxious fumes by pyrolysis of the insulation materials. All power should be disconnected from the motor before any investigation of the failure is attempted. The area around the motor should be well ventilated. Personnel should not breathe the toxic fumes produced by the failure. If possible, allow time for the motor to cool and for the fumes to dilute with air.

Checking the Torque on the Motor Stud Terminals

To prevent premature motor failure, the nuts that secure the power leads to the motors should be checked for proper torque. The torque should be checked each time the motor brushes are inspected. The torque valves shown in Figure 5-14 are the same for all terminal sizes. Figure 5-14 shows the drive motor armature terminal.

Terminal Stud Stud Terminal Securing Nut Torque: 140 - 160 in lbs. (15.8 - 18.1 N•m) Motor Cable Securing Nut Torque: 100 - 120 in lbs. (11.2 - 13.6 N•m)

Open Circuits

Motor Terminal Torque Specification for All Other Motors

An open circuit is one in which the electrical circuit within the motor has been broken. This can be caused by: • Bad brushes or brush springs • A broken wire in the field winding • A loose or bad connection

Testing for Open Circuits

To test for open circuits, use Figure 5-16, and do the following: 1. Disconnect the motor from the truck circuit. 2. Use a milliohmmeter (preferably) or analog ohmmeter (Simpson 250, and so on), to measure continuity in the armature and field circuits at room temperature. 3. Using a megohmmeter or analog ohmmeter, there should be NO continuity between the armature and the field terminals of the drive motor. The meter should register more than 100,000 ohms. 4. If the meter indicates an open circuit in the armature, check the condition of the brushes before rejecting the motor. NOTE: The lift and auxiliary motors have only two external connections because the armature and field windings are connected internally. The continuity check can be made between the two external terminals. If an open circuit is found, the motor must be returned to a motor rebuild facility to have the field and armature circuits checked for continuity.

Short Circuits

MD S1

A1

Motor Terminals and Circuits

A short circuited motor is one in which the insulation on the field or armature windings has broken down at two or more points. The breakdown creates a low resistance current path, allowing current to flow from one turn of the coil to another adjacent coil turn, without actually flowing through the coil wire. The result is a decrease in total resistance of the motor winding and an increase in the current flow. Location of the short determines its severity. A shorted motor might be indicated by: • Slow or sluggish operation • Running faster than normal • Overheating • Blowing a power fuse

Testing for Short Circuits

Excessive motor current can be caused by abnormally high rolling resistance. Such resistance might be caused by brake dragging, defective wheel bearings, or transmission problems. The devices driven by the motor should be inspected before replacing the motor. To test for short circuits, do the following: 1. Refer to the inspection report showing the motor current when the motor was new. 2. Duplicate the same truck conditions (loaded and unloaded) and measure the present current. 3. If the present current reading is 25% more than the original current value, check the entire truck for possible causes, such as:

Armature Shorts

A short in the armature will cause heating, probably resulting in burning of the: • Armature coil • Banding wires • Commutator segments

Checking for Armature Shorts

Visual inspection should show this condition. Another method of checking for armature shorts is to: 1. Remove all the brushes. 2. Touch one lead from an ohmmeter to a bar on the commutator. 3. Work your way around the commutator, touching each bar, checking the resistance. 4. There should be only one commutator bar that shorts to the bar that has the ohmmeter attached to it. 5. The remainder of the commutator bars should have high resistance.

Grounded Motors

In a grounded motor, an electrical circuit exists between the currentcarrying conductors and the motor housing. This can be caused either by direct contact or through conductive foreign material. The ground might be caused by: • Insulation breakdown • Brush leads touching the motor housing • Build-up of carbon dust or other materials

Testing for a Grounded Motor

To test for a grounded motor, do the following: 1. Isolate the motor from the truck circuit. 2. Attach one lead of a megohmmeter (preferably), or an ohmmeter set to the highest resistance scale, to a motor terminal, and the other lead to the motor housing. Be sure paint does not interfere with connections. 3. If the megohmmeter indicates a resistance of less than 100,000 ohms, the motor is grounded. Clean, repair, or replace the motor as necessary.

Truck Grounds— General

Another common cause of truck electrical problems is other grounding. Grounds can be caused by: • Accumulation of dirt • Breakdown of insulation • Bare Wires Grounds can occur at numerous locations including: • Batteries • Motors • Contactors • Terminal strips • Switches • Power panel insulators • Improper mounting of circuit cards

Testing for Grounds on the Truck Frame

To test for grounds on the frame of the truck, do the following: 1. Disconnect battery connector. 2. Measure the resistance to frame at B+, B-, and all fuses. A resistance reading of less than 1000 ohms indicates a serious short to frame. If this condition exists, the source of low resistance or short-to-frame must be located using the resistance method. DO NOT continue until this condition is corrected. 3. Remove the battery from the truck. 4. Connect the battery lead to the truck. 5. Use a volt/ohm/amp meter to measure the leakage current to frame at B+, B- at all fuses, and all motors. If the current is less than 0.001 amp (1 mA), the truck system passes. If the currents exceeds 1 mA, go to step 6. 6. To find the cause of the low resistance, you must disconnect the power cables from each motor or major sub-assembly to determine if that item is causing the low resistance.

Hydraulic System Maintenance This section explains how to maintain the hydraulic system.

Selecting the Oil

Before adding or changing hydraulic fluid, determine the environment and usage of the truck. See the “Lubrication Equivalency Chart,” on page A-2 to make the proper oil and lubricant selection.

Changing the Reservoir Fluid

To change the reservoir fluid, do the following: 1. Lower the forks all the way to the floor. Ensure that all hydraulic pressure is relieved. 2. Turn the key to OFF. Disconnect the battery. 3. Open the rear left hydraulic compartment door. 4. Place a 5-gallon (20 liter) container near the auxiliary inlet line. 5. Cover the drive motor. 6. Loosen the clamp securing the auxiliary inlet line. 7. Carefully remove the auxiliary inlet and allow the reservoir to drain into the 5-gallon container. 8. After all the oil is drained, attach and clamp the hose on the auxiliary inlet. 9. Change the filter (see “Changing the Reservoir Filter” on page 540). 10. Refill the reservoir with the proper grade of oil. See the “Lubrication Equivalency Chart,” on page A-2 and “Checking the Reservoir Fluid Level”. 11. Bleed the hydraulic system.

Chapter 5: Maintenance Hydraulic System Maintenance

Checking the Reservoir Fluid Level

To check the reservoir fluid level, do the following: 1. With the oil at room temperature and the carriage lowered completely, fill the reservoir until the oil level is approximately 1 in. (25.4 mm) above the bottom of the strainer. 2. Elevate the carriage all the way to the stops. 3. If the lift pump cavitates (runs out of oil), add just enough oil to be able to lift to the maximum elevated height. Adding too much oil could result in the reservoir overflowing as the oil gets hot and expands. See CAUTION.

! CAUTION If the pump runs out of oil, do not continue to try to lift the carriage. The pump will be ruined if it is operated without oil.

Changing the Reservoir Filter

To change the reservoir filter, do the following: 1. Lower the forks all the way to the floor. Ensure that all the hydraulic pressure is relieved. 2. Turn the key to OFF. Disconnect the battery. 3. Remove the top console cover. 4. Place a suitable device under the oil filter to catch any oil that drains when the filter is removed. 5. Remove the filter. 6. Clean the sealing surface. 7. Apply a thin film of clean hydraulic oil on the gasket of the new filter. 8. Install the filter. Turn the filter 3/4 of a turn after the gasket makes contact with the seat. Use hand pressure only. 9. Start the system and check for leaks. 10. Check the reservoir level as described in “Checking the Reservoir Fluid Level”.

Braking System

The braking system of the Mitsubishi Reach Truck meets all requirements of ANSI B56.1 and is the recommended system for stopping the truck, especially in an emergency. The brake assembly is mounted on top of the drive motor. The brake assembly consists of a rotor mounted on the drive motor armature shaft and stationary brake pads mounted within the brake housing. The brake is spring applied and hydraulically released. The brake unit is free-floating; that is, the assembly is not bolted to the drive motor. Instead, slip fit bushings inserted into the brake assembly are bolted to the motor end head. The following table shows the proper clearance after adjusting the brake:

Gap

Clearance Standard

Metric

Bottom Gap =

0.005 to 0.008 in.

(0.127 to 0.20 mm)

Top Gap =

0.020 to 0.030 in.

(0.508 to 0.76 mm)

Total for Both Gaps =

0.030 to 0.35 in.

(0.76 to 0.889 mm)

As the brake wears, the bottom gap increases and the top gap decreases. The brake must be readjusted when the top gap reaches 0.010 in. (0.254 mm). Refer to the appropriate procedures in this section. NOTE: Proper master cylinder operation will enable 0.030 to 0.035 in. (0.762 to 0.889 mm) of total brake rotor/pad gap. If not, recheck the pedal height and, if necessary, bleed the brake system.

Braking Process

The following describes how the braking process works: 1. With the deadman pedal in its normal up position, the master cylinder is deactivated. Therefore the slave cylinder is depressurized, which allows the brake spring to keep the brake applied. 2. Stepping on the deadman pedal strokes the master cylinder. This increases the pressure in the slave cylinder, which pushes against the brake spring and releases the brake. 3. As the deadman pedal is pressed, an arm on the mechanical linkage activates S2. The deadman switch (S2) is adjusted to activate the auxiliary system just before the brake is released.

Adjusting NutRetained Style Brakes

The nut-retained style brake can be identified by a long retaining nut with an integral encoder shaft. See Figure 5-38 on page 5-60 for a view of the nut-retained style brake.

Without Adjusting Bolts

To adjust the brakes without adjusting the bolts, use Figure 5-38 on page 5-60 and do the following: 1. Place the spacer (19) over the motor shaft. 2. Place the Woodruff key (10) on the motor shaft. 3. Place the brake assembly over the motor shaft. Slide it down all the way. Install the retaining nut (17) onto the upper end of the drive motor armature shaft. Use a torque wrench to properly torque the retaining nut to 90 ft-lbs (122 N•m). 4. Connect the brake line to the brake. Bleed the air from the brake lines. 5. Install the three M8 x 1.25 capscrews (7) and the three hardened washers (5) that hold the brake assembly to the top of the drive motor. Tighten the capscrews. 6. Press the deadman pedal. Measure the gap between the brake rotor and the bottom pad. It should be 0.005 to 0.008 in. (0.13 to 0.2 mm). Then measure the gap between the brake rotor and the top pad. This gap will vary, but it should not be less than 0.010 in. (0.25 mm). Proper master cylinder operation will enable 0.030 to 0.035 in. (0.762 to 0.889 mm) of total brake rotor and pad gap. If not, recheck the pedal height and, if necessary, bleed the brake system. 7. Loosen the three M8 X 1.25 capscrews (7) you installed in Step 5. Add shims (1 thru 4) between the hardened washer (5) and the top of the drive motor to get the 0.005 to 0.008 in. (0.13 to 0.2 mm) gap mentioned in the previous step. Make sure you add shims (1 thru 4) equally beneath each of the three spacers (6). Never install shims without a hardened washer beneath them. If the lower gap (mentioned in Step 6) is too small when there are no shims (20, 21) beneath the spacers (5), add shims beneath the spacer (19) on the drive motor armature shaft to increase the gap. 8. Clean the three M8 X 1.25 capscrews (7), apply Primer T (P/N 65V1541), and then red Loctite to the threads. Install the capscrews (7) and torque them to 16 ft-lbs (21.7 N•m).

With Adjusting Bolts

A new style brake assembly is available with three threaded holes in the mounting plate for adjusting bolts. The bolts contact a support ring between the brake and rotor and allow the gap to be set by turning the bolts. See Figure 5-39. 1. Back off the three adjusting bolts and jam nuts until they do not contact the adjusting ring. 2. Check for the proper deadman pedal height. 3. Bleed the brake. See “Bleeding the Brake” on page 5-61. 4. Press the deadman pedal and place a 0.008 in. feeler gauge between the bottom brake pad and the rotor. 5. Tighten the adjusting bolts until the feeler gauge is just snug on all three bolts. 6. Tighten the jam nuts. 7. Check the clearance between the top brake pad and the rotor. The top gap should be not less than 0.010 in. (0.25 mm). 8. Test the brakes in a safe area. With a full load and traveling at full speed, the lift truck should stop within 8 to 10 feet (2.4 to 3.0 m), depending on the load, floor, and tire conditions. Adjusting Ring

5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 until a solid stream (no bubbles) flows from the slave cylinder. Refill the master cylinder fluid reservoir using DOT-5 brake fluid only.

Adjusting the Deadman Pedal

Correct brake operation also depends on proper functioning and adjustment of the deadman pedal. Thoroughly clean around and beneath the pedal to insure freedom of movement. This will also help ensure that the power steering functions until the truck is nearly stopped. See the following when adjusting the deadman pedal: • Figure 5-40 on page 5-63 • Table 5-11 on page 5-64 To adjust the deadman pedal, do the following: 1. Check the master cylinder mounting bolts for tightness. 2. Check the condition of the return spring. 3. Make sure all parts of the brake linkage are in place and in good condition. 4. Check the pedal mounting pivots and bearings for tightness and condition. 5. Adjust the yoke to obtain a minimum spring compressed length of 1.75 in. (44.5 mm). The maximum is 1.94 in. (49.27 mm). 6. Tighten the locknut. 7. Check the pedal height. If it is incorrect, check the condition of the pedal and linkage. For 24-volt models, it should be 3.75 to 4.0 in. (95 to 102 mm). For 36-volt models, it should be 4.75 to 5.0 in. (121 to 127 mm). NOTE: A fully pressed deadman pedal will enable 0.030 to 0.035 in. (0.762 to 0.889 mm) of total brake and rotor pad gap. If not, check for air in the brake system. 8. Check the brake release for proper operation. Adjust the deadman switch (S2) so that it engages when the deadman pedal is at 60% to 80% of full height.

6. Now reassemble the brakes according to the following instructions,

Reassembling the Brake

After cleaning and inspecting the brake components, reassemble the brake as follows: 1. Use only new O-rings when reassembling the brake. It is critical that the individual components are clean. 2. Liberally coat the O-rings with new DOT-5 brake fluid only. 3. Install the new O-rings into the brake housing. 4. Coat the piston surface (which contacts the O-ring) with DOT-5 brake fluid. 5. Install the piston into the housing squarely. Push the piston completely into the housing until it bottoms out. 6. Start the torque ring into the housing by hand. Do not use the spanner wrench at this time. 7. Attach the inner brake pad assembly to the piston using three (3) Allen head screws. Tighten them securely using the 3/32 in. Allen head wrench. Note: It is important to properly align the holes in the inner brake pad assembly with the mating threaded holes in the brake housing. It might be necessary to rotate the brake pad assembly to achieve proper alignment. 8. Lay the brake rotor on the inner brake pad assembly. The rotor hubs are different heights on either side. The higher hub MUST face the drive motor (facing down when on the truck). See Figure 5-42 on page 5-67. 9. Install the three spacers and springs. 10. Lay the outer brake pad assembly on top of the rotor. 11. Install three Allen head screws through the springs and spacers. Tighten them equally. 12. Install the brake assembly on the truck. 13. Connect the brake hose. 14. As a rough setting, the torque ring should be flush with the surface of the brake housing. 15. Bleed air from brake hydraulic line. See “Bleeding the Brake” on page 5-61.

Steering System

This section explains how to maintain the steering system.

Steering Adjustment with Steerable Caster

The drive and steerable caster wheel on the truck are designed to allow 101.5 degrees of rotation. Use the following procedure to adjust the steering mechanism and caster height.

Initial Adjustments

Caster height adjustment differs, depending on the type of mast on the truck. “Adjusting the Casters” on page 5-74 for caster height adjustment instructions.

Proper caster adjustment is critical for proper performance. A misadjusted caster can cause excessive braking distances or poor stability. Use Figure 5-45 as a reference to properly adjust the steering and caster.

Before doing any maintenance on the steering system, do initial adjustments as follows: 1. The drive and caster wheels should be parallel within 0.12 in. per 12.00 in. (0.3 cm per 30.5 cm). 2. If the wheels are not within tolerance, loosen the bolts (1). 3. Use adjusting bolts (2 and 3) to get the wheels parallel. 4. Apply Loctite to the adjusting bolts (2) and (3). Tighten all hardware when the adjustments are done.

Adjusting the Casters

To adjust the casters, do the following: 1. Check the bolt (1) in Figure 5-46 on page 5-75. Make sure it is installed correctly. If the bolt is missing, the A-frame could drop and allow the springs to escape when the truck is jacked up. 2. Jack the truck until the caster is clear of the floor. See WARNING below.

! WARNING Use extreme care whenever the truck is jacked up for any reason. Never block the truck between the telescopic and the floor. Use a suitable hoist to stabilize the mast. Keep hands and feet clear from beneath the truck while jacking. Use jack stands or solid blocks to support the truck; do not rely on jacks. See “Jacking the Truck” on page 5-3. 3. Turn the screw (1) to adjust the initial gap between arm and frame to 1.0 in. Turn the nuts (2) to get a rough spring setting of 6.0 in. (152 mm). 4. Lower the truck back onto the floor. 5. Make sure the truck is on a level floor and a rated battery is installed in it. Adjust the length of the springs using nuts (2) as shown below: Elevated Height

Lift/Lower System

This section explains how to maintain the lift/lower system.

Lift Chains

Check the truck lift chains monthly because most unsatisfactory chain performance can be traced directly to inadequate chain maintenance. Remove the chain and inspect it for defects as explained in this section.

Removing and Inspecting the Chain

Both chains should be replaced when either is defective.

! CAUTION Do not steam clean or degrease new truck chains To remove and inspect the chain, do the following: 1. Using a jack or overhead hoist, raise the carriage enough to slacken the lift chains. 2. Secure the carriage with blocks to prevent the carriage from lowering. 3. Remove the chain and chain anchors by unscrewing the nuts on the carriage and the chain anchors on the main frame. 4. Thoroughly clean the chain in solvent. 5. Inspect the chain for defects listed in Table 5-12 on page 5-80. 6. Lubricate a used chain in good condition or a new chain before installing it on the truck. See “Lubricating the Lift Chain” on page 5-81. 7. Reinstall the chains on the truck. Be sure the chains are adjusted to share the load equally. Also, make sure they are not twisted so they will roll flat on the sheaves.

Replacing the Flow Control

The flow control in the three-stage mast is located internally at the base of the rear cylinder. The flow control can be replaced without removing the cylinder using the following procedure, (See Figure 5-55 and Figure 5-56.) 1. Elevate the forks enough to gain access to the base of the rear lift cylinder. 2. Use a chain hoist and blocks to support the telescopics; disconnect the battery. 3. Remove the locknut that secures the rear piston to the base of the mast main frame. 4. Disconnect and cap the hydraulic supply line to the cylinder and cylinder port. 5. Using the hoist, raise the inner telescopic. This causes the equalization chains to raise the outer telescopic enough to remove the end cap. 6. Using a fabric strap wrench to hold the piston, remove the lower end cap of the piston. 7. Remove the internal snap ring that holds the flow control in the cap. 8. Remove the flow control, noting the direction of the arrow on the flow control cartridge body. 9. Flush the cap using solvent to remove the dirt and oil. Thoroughly clean the cap threads. Blow dry using compressed air. 10. Install the new flow control ensuring the flow arrow points in the same direction as the flow control that was removed. Hydraulic flow should be restricted when the mast is lowered. 11. Install the snap ring. 12. Replace the O-ring. 13. Thoroughly clean the piston threads. 14. Apply Loctite 242 to the threads on the end cap. 15. Thread the end cap into the piston and tighten it. 16. Reverse steps 3 through 6 for reassembly.

Depending on the mast configuration, the equalization chains will be located either between the outer telescopic and the main frame OR on the tractor-side of the mast uprights. Determine which mast configuration is used on the truck, then follow the appropriate procedure.

! CAUTION With both equalization chains slack, note the relationship between the top of the mast main frame and the telescopic frame sections. Under no circumstances should the equalization chains be adjusted so the inner telescopic is raised above the position noted before starting the adjustment procedure. 1. The equalization chains are properly adjusted if the inner telescopic contacts the mechanical stops on the outer telescopic, JUST BEFORE the outer telescopic contacts the mechanical stops on the main frame. 2. The adjusters are located near the top of the main frame, either between the mast main frame and the outer telescopic OR on the tractor-side of the mast. To adjust the equalization chains, turn the chain anchor locknut until the outer telescopic starts to move, then loosen the nut one-half turn. Repeat this step for the other side. 3. Check the adjustment by elevating the carriage (if required) so that 4-5 feet (1.2-1.5 m) of the equalization chains are visible. Using your fingers, apply pressure on each chain. Determine if the pressure is approximately the same on both sides. If there is a significant difference between the two sides, repeat this procedure on the chain that has the lower tension. See NOTE. NOTE: Make only minor adjustments to ensure that the chains are not overtightened. Make adjustments equally to both sides. Always recheck chain tension after any adjustments are made to either or both equalization chains.

Equalization Chain Removal and Installation

If the equalization chain requires removal or replacement, use the following procedure. See WARNING. See Figure 5-51 on page 5-82.

! WARNING With the mast attached to the tractor, never remove both equalization chains at the same time. When working on the mast, block in place as shown in Figure 5-51. To remove the chain: 1. Elevate the inner telescopic enough to place the support block (as shown in Figure 5-57 on page 5-90) under the inner and outer telescopics. Lower the mast onto the support. Clamp the support in place as shown. 2. Loosen the locknut on the equalization chain adjuster. 3. Remove the two hex head cap screws at the top of the mast main frame. 4. Using a screwdriver, push the chain anchor support towards the center of the mast. Once the anchor support clears the welded block on the inside of the mast main frame, the adjuster and chain will fall to the floor. 5. Disconnect the chain from the inner telescopic chain anchor. To install the chain: 1. Attach chain to the inner telescopic. 2. Attach an 8-10 ft. (2.4 - 3.0 m) length of wire to the chain anchor. 3. Pull the chain anchor (using the wire attached above) and chain up between the mast main frame and outer telescopic. 4. With the chain anchor in the proper position, start the two hex head cap screws; then tighten. 5. Ensure the chain is not twisted. 6. Remove the length of wire. After reassembling the equalization chain, adjust it according to the instructions in “Adjusting the Equalization Chain” on page 5-89.

Applying Loctite® to the Reach Carriage Chain Anchors

Reach carriage chain anchors on all triple telescopic masts are lubricated to prevent the anchors from backing out of the anchor mounting block. The anchor radial position is critical, and the anchors must be square with the carriage horizontal axis in order to prevent the lift chains from twisting. If the chain anchors are removed for any reason, Loctite should be reapplied to the anchor threads using the following procedure: 1. Ensure the threads of the chain anchor are clean. 2. Apply Loctite primer T to the male threads on the anchors and to the female threads of the anchor blocks. Allow to dry. 3. Apply Loctite 242 to the threads of the anchor and install. 4. Anchors must be square with the block on the carriage within +/- 2 degrees.

Adjusting the Mechanical Stop

If the mechanical stops require adjustment, install or remove the shims (P/N 1036790, item 1 in Figure 5-57) between the stop and the bumper. Use no more than three shims at each stop.

Adjusting the High Pressure Relief Valve

To adjust the high pressure relief valve, do the following: 1. Install a calibrated pressure gauge (3000 psi/20,682 kPa) in a test port. 2. Back-out the high pressure relief valve. 3. Place a rated load on the forks. 4. Start the lift system and turn the pressure relief screw clockwise until the carriage starts to lift. Note the pressure required when the carriage elevates above the free lift stage (carriage and telescopics elevated). 5. Adjust the pressure relief valve to a pressure 100 - 300 psi (689.4 - 2068 kPa) greater than the values observed in step 4. This can be done by chaining the mast sections together or by adding more weight to the forks. 6. After the adjustment is complete, tighten the relief valve lock nut. 7. Check the lift system for proper operation.

Checking the Wiring

Save time and trouble; look for simple causes first. 1. Visually inspect all wiring in all components for: •

Broken wiring and shorted conditions (especially close to metal edges or surfaces).

Loose connections

Loose or broken terminals

Damaged terminal blocks or strips

2. Use an ohmmeter to check wiring continuity. 3. Repair or replace the wiring wherever a problem exists.

Troubleshooting Procedure

If a truck problem cannot be located in the wiring or a short-to-frame test, troubleshoot using the following procedure:

! CAUTION Disconnect the battery when checking electrical circuits with an ohmmeter. The battery current can damage the meter. 1. Determine exactly what operations the truck is failing to perform. 2. To accomplish this, it is often advisable to jack up and block the truck so the drive wheel is off the floor. Be sure the mast is supported by a suitable hoist so the truck does not tip over.

! WARNING Use extreme care whenever the truck is jacked up for any reason. Never block the truck between the telescopic and the floor. Use a suitable hoist to stabilize the mast. Keep hands and feet clear from beneath the truck while jacking. Use jack stands or solid blocks to support the truck; do not rely on jacks. See “Jacking the Truck” on page 5-3. 3. Operate all the truck’s functions slowly, observing during which sequence the truck malfunctions.

Shorts to the Truck Frame—Causes

A common cause of truck electrical problems is shorting to the truck frame that can be caused by: • Accumulation of dirt • Breakdown in insulation • Bare wires Shorts to the frame can occur at many locations including: • Battery • Motors • Cables • Buss bars • Heat sinks • Solenoids

Shorts to the Truck Frame—Checking

Check for shorts to frame using the following procedure:

! CAUTION Unplug the battery; battery current can damage the meter. 1. Use an ohmmeter set to Rx10,000 scale. 2. Connect one lead to the truck frame and the other to different points in the electrical system, for example, terminal strips, contactors, wire connections, and so on. 3. If the ohmmeter registers less than two megohm, the short within the particular circuit must be located. 4. Reverse the leads and repeat steps 3 through 5. 5. Remove the control fuses (FU4 and FU5). 6. For each fuse, make a connection between the battery side terminal and the truck frame with the ohmmeter. 7. Any reading below 200K ohms in the power system (motors) indicates unacceptable shorts somewhere in the system. 8. For each fuse, make a connection between the control side terminal and the truck frame with the ohmmeter. 9. A reading registering below 2 megohms on the meter indicates unacceptable shorts in the control system.

Voltage To Frame—Causes

Voltage grounds are the most common causes for system intermittent “overloads.” Voltage to frame leakage is a result of dirt accumulation and can occur at: • Motors • Heatsinks • Battery • Switches • Contactor panel • Cables and wiring

Voltage To Frame—Checking

Check for voltage to frame using the following procedure: 1. Use a voltmeter set to a voltage above that of the truck system. 2. Connect the voltmeter leads as follows:

Voltage to Frame— Eliminating

Positive lead to TP5; negative lead to truck frame.

Positive lead to truck frame; negative lead to TP4.

Voltage readings of 2 to 3 volts in either test should be eliminated. Eliminate the voltage to frame by isolating a particular area of the truck’s electrical system. Use the following procedure: 1. Connect the voltmeter leads as described in Step 2 above. 2. Remove the battery from the truck. Reconnect the battery to the receptacle. If the voltage drops, the battery needs cleaning or resealing. 3. If the battery checks good, reinstall it in the truck and:

6-6

Remove the fuses (one at a time). If the voltage drops when the fuse is removed, the defective circuit is isolated.

Disconnect the motor leads (one at a time). If the voltage drops, the motor needs cleaning or repair.

Board and Component Swapping Precautions

Troubleshooting by following the instructions given in this manual is usually more productive than swapping components until the problem is corrected. Bear in mind that the Interface Card Setup Procedure (see “Running Learn” on page 6-73) must be run after swapping, replacing, or adjusting any of the following components: • Throttle potentiometer (pot) • Interface card Every time a new Interface Card is placed into a truck, it must be Learned. Be particularly aware of this when swapping cards between trucks to isolate a problem. When swapping the Interface Card between a working and non-working truck, both must be re-Learned after finishing troubleshooting. Additionally, verify all DIP switch settings (see Figure 6-14 on page 6-76). When in doubt, run Learn after servicing a truck.

Troubleshooting Order for Component Failure

When troubleshooting a problem, some components should be suspected before others. This “suspect order” is based on either: • The probability of a particular component failing • The ease of replacing a particular component All troubleshooting is based on the following “suspect order:” 1. Wiring and terminal connections before circuit cards. 2. Hydraulic fluid contamination. 3. Component mis adjustment before component failure (throttle potentiometer). 4. Mast switches before other components. 5. Circuit cards are usually the last item to suspect.

Cleaning and Inspecting the Contactors

Clean and inspect the contactors regularly to help ensure their proper operation. See “Planned Maintenance” on page 5-12 for the suggested service interval.

Inspecting

Visually inspect all parts for: • Nicks • Broken or damaged leads • Broken terminals or springs • Burned contact tips • Cracked or deteriorating bushings, insulation, or contact guards • Stripped threads • Other obvious damage

Inspection Guidelines

When inspecting the contactors, remember: • Darkening of points does not indicate burning. • Burning means loss of contact point material or droplets of molted contact material being displaced. • The contact can be used until the material is almost completely gone. • Replace the contact points if, in the opinion of the Maintenance Department, there is not enough contact point material to last until the next regular inspection. • The silver alloy part of the point is usable contact material; the copper backing is not. • Do not file the contact points to remove discoloration or minor irregularities. This is wasteful and produces a surface more susceptible to sticking. • If a cone and crater appear, remove the cone only with a file; do not use sandpaper or emery cloth.

Cleaning

To clean the contactors: • Wear safety glasses. • Remove dust, dirt, and other foreign materials from contactors with dry, filtered, compressed air (maximum 30 PSI [207 kPa]). • Use a cleaning solution on a clean cloth to remove stubborn dirt if necessary.

Replacing

This section explains how to test the rectifiers and capacitor.

Testing the REC1, REC2, and REC5 Rectifiers

To test the REC1, REC2, and REC5 rectifiers, do the following: 1. Connect a continuity test light with the positive lead on the Cathode and the negative lead on the Anode. The light should not come on, if it does, replace the rectifier. 2. Reverse the leads and the light should still not come on. 3. Using a jumper wire connected to the positive lead, touch the gate terminal. The light should now come on and should stay on even when you disconnect the gate lead. 4. After the flow has been stopped, the rectifier should have shut off and the light will not come on until positive is applied to the gate again.

Testing the REC3 and REC4 Rectifiers

6-10

Since these are simple diodes, the REC3 and REC4 rectifiers can be checked with any of three test instruments. PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Electrical

1. With the continuity light, connect the negative lead to the base or Anode and the positive lead to the pigtail or Cathode of the rectifier. The light should not come on. If it does, the diode is shorted and must be replaced. 2. Reverse the leads and the light should come on. If it fails to light, the rectifier is open and should be replaced. To check with a VOM: 1. Connect the negative lead to the base and the positive lead to the pigtail. You should read at least 50K ohms. 2. If reading is below this, the diode is shorted or possibly weak and leaking and should be replaced. 3. Reverse the leads. You should read about 7 to 12 ohms. If it is higher, the rectifier should be replaced. Minor differences in tolerances, test instrument batteries, and leads or connections can make the readings vary. Testing the 1C Capacitor

The 1C Capacitor cannot be checked with a continuity tester. It can be checked with a VOM, however, a visual inspection of the capacitor is nearly as good as this test because most capacitor failures will result in the can swelling. To check with a VOM: 1. Disconnect it from the truck wiring and hook the meter leads to the terminals. Since the 1C Capacitor in the EV100 system is not polarity sensitive, it doesn’t make any difference which lead is on which terminal. 2. Turn the meter to the 22K resistance scale. You should see a gradual rise in ohms until the meter reads OL (overload). 3. Reverse the leads and you should see the capacitor discharge through the meter as the ohms gradually go down to zero and then recharge back up to OL.

Hydraulics It is important to keep accurate records of all hydraulic inspections and work performed on the trucks. Such records are helpful in determining: • Repair and maintenance costs • Reliability of components • Durability of hydraulic fluid • Scheduling of maintenance

Checking for Hydraulic Leaks

Hydraulic leaks can cause: • Load drop • Load drift • Bouncing carriage • Noisy pumps To check for hydraulic leaks, wipe all connections clean when checking for leaks. Remember. leaking fluid is likely to run down the underside of pipes and drip at low spots. Many situations cause hydraulic leakage. Any leakage inspection should include operating the units as well as connections.

6-12

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Hydraulics

The following table is a list of items to check for hydraulic leaks: Table 6-3: Checking for Hydraulic Leaks

Item

What to Check

Faulty Flexible Connectors

When installing a flexible connector, avoid twisting it which creates a strain on the joint.

Fitting

Do not spring a tube into place before tightening a fitting. The resultant stress can cause a leak.

Cracked or Bad Tubing Flare

Inspect all tubing before installation. Make sure when making the flare that it is the right size.

Foreign Material in the Flare

Make sure the flare is clean before installation.

Defective Threads

Check for leakage around the threads when installing new tubing.

Dirt Around the O-Rings

Thoroughly clean and lubricate any O-rings before installation.

Wrinkled or Flattened Tube

Use a known-to-be-good tube bender and carefully bend the tube.

Worn Packings

Examine packings for wear and leakage around the cylinder pistons. If the packing is too tight, abnormal friction and wear will occur. See that cylinders are securely anchored and that pistons are in alignment. Misalignment is a cause of heavy wear of both pistons and packings. Worn packings should be replaced because they can cause internal leakage. If the truck is slugglish, check the packing inside the cylinder.

Bad Connections

When checking connections to pumps, cylinders, manifold valves, and so on, be sure to watch both pressure and suction sides. Pressure side leaks can be found by wiping the connections and checking the accumulations of oil after a brief truck operation. Brushing soap solution on the joints can be helpful. Air leaks on the suction side of the various components can cause considerable trouble; listen for these leaks because they can lead to air bubbles in hydraulic oil. Suction leaks are always difficult to find, but they are important.

Drive Coupling Alignment

Check the alignment of the drive coupling between the motor and the pump. Also, check the motor as suggested in “Maintaining the Motor” on page 5-30. Be sure hydraulic fluid from a leak is not seeping onto the field windings and armature.

System Contamination

System contamination can cause erratic or slugglish operation of the lift or auxiliary functions, load drift, load drop, clogging, leaking, and damage to the valve and pump parts.

PDMM-0058

6-13


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Hydraulics

Table 6-3: Checking for Hydraulic Leaks (Cont’d)

Item

What to Check

Packing Disintegration

Examine the rod surfaces that contact the packing. If these are nicked or scratched, they should be resurfaced or replaced.

Cylinder and Piston Packing Wear

If a hydraulic cylinder is disassembled, inspect the inside of the cylinder housing. If the inside cylinder surface is scored, packing grit is probably in the hydraulic fluid.

Hydraulic System Oxidation

Oxidation can cause internal rusting and sludge. Use a top grade oil with additives. See the “Lubrication Equivalency Chart” on page A-2.

Opening the Hydraulic System

Whenever a hydraulic system is opened, all hoses should be capped or plugged to keep out dirt and moisture-laden air. Examine pipe fittings and hoses to be certain there are no seal particles, nicks, burrs, or dirt present when reassembling the parts. Wipe all fittings before reconnecting them.

Clogged Filter

If the filter becomes clogged in less than the recommended change interval, the bypass valve will allow contaminants into the system. Inspect, clean and replace the element whenever contamination is evident. If severe contamination occurs, drain the system, flush all components, and replace the oil and filter.

Maintenance Tips

The following table provides some maintenance tips:

! CAUTION Never use pipe joint compound on hydraulic fittings. Joint compounds can dissolve, contaminating the oil.

Task

Procedure

Cleaning Hydraulic Components

• Dip in clean kerosene or equivalent light solvent. • Wash them off. • Blow them dry using dry, compressed air.

Replacing or Reinstalling Hydraulic Cartridge Valves

• Dip the cartridge in hydraulic oil. Ensure the O-ring is well lubricated. Screw them in by hand until the outer O-ring touches the manifold. • Use a wrench to tighten them. Tighten the cartridge 1/2 turn then back off 1/4 turn. Continue this process until the cartridge is tight. Tightening the O-ring components in this manner will prevent damage to the O-ring seal.

Replacing or Reinstalling Hydraulic Seals

• Immerse the compounds with spring chambers in hydraulic oil. • Activate the spring to remove any air.

After locating and repairing any leak or other problem, fill the reservoir and bleed the system.

! CAUTION When clamping the lift/lower manifold in a vise, ensure the valve body is not damaged because this might void the warranty.

Probable Cause

Remedy

Pump intake partially blocked.

Check the fluid condition and if necessary, drain and flush the system. Refill with clean fluid of the correct viscosity.

Air leaks at the intake or shaft seal. (Oil in reservoir would probably be foamy).

Check the inlet connections and seal to determine where air is being drawn in. Tighten any loose connections and replace the seal if necessary. See that the fluid in the reservoir is at the proper level.

Coupling misalignment.

Check if the shaft seal bearing or other parts have been damaged. Replace any damaged parts. Realign the coupled shafts.

EV100LX Codes and Tests

EV100LX Codes and Tests Separate codes and tests are required to troubleshoot the EV100LX Solid-State Control System and the Interface Card System. Each series of codes and tests are in this chapter. The EV100LX codes and tests are displayed on the Operator Display; the Interface Card has a display built into the card. The Interface Card displays are not usually visible to the operator. Any codes associated with the traction and lift systems will be displayed on the Operator’s Display. Any codes associated with lift/lower systems and general truck status will be displayed on the Interface Card.

Troubleshooting the EV100LX Solid-State Control System

Follow the instructions outlined in the status code instruction sheets (starting on page 6-31) to troubleshoot the EV100LX Solid-State Control System (Figure 6-1 on page 6-22).

Identifying a Malfunction

If the truck malfunctions, a status code is displayed on the Operator’s Display. If the truck is not equipped with a display, plug in a handset into the logic card’s plug Y location and read the status code. With the status code number, follow the procedures outlined in the status code instruction sheets (starting on page 6-31) to determine the problem.

Replacing the Logic Card

Due to the interaction of the logic card with all truck functions, almost any status code or control fault could be caused by the logic card. After all other status code procedures have been followed and no problem is found, the logic card should then be replaced as the last option to correct the problem.

Wire Numbers

The wire labels on your truck should correspond to the labeling on the electrical schematic on page A-13.

Jacking the Truck

Before troubleshooting, jack up the wheels, disconnect the battery, and discharge the capacitor 1C. Reconnect the battery as needed for the specific check.

6-20

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting EV100LX Codes and Tests

! WARNING Use extreme care whenever the truck is jacked up for any reason. Never block the truck between the telescopic and the floor. Use a suitable hoist to stabilize the mast. Keep hands and feet clear from beneath the truck while jacking. Use jack stands or solid blocks to support the truck; do not rely on jacks. See “Jacking the Truck” on page 5-3.

Accessing the Terminals

If capacitor 1C terminals are not accessible, discharge the capacitor by connecting from the Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) POS terminal to REC 2 anode. Check the resistance on an Rx1000 scale from frame to the SCR power and control terminals. A resistance of less than 20,000 ohms can cause misleading symptoms. Resistance less than 1000 ohms should be corrected first.

Visual Check

Before proceeding, visually check for loose wiring and signs of overheating of components.

Function 14

Internal Resistance Function

This function is used when the Battery Discharge Indicator is ON. Adjustment of this function will improve the accuracy of the BDI. In order to make this setting, the voltage drop of the battery under load must be determined, as follows: 1. Load the drive motor to 100 amps in 1A and record the voltage (Vo) at the SCR positive and negative power terminals. 2. Load the drive motor to 200 amps in 1A and record the voltage (Vl) at the SCR positive and negative power terminals. 3. Calculate voltage drop (Vd) as follows: Vd = Vo - Vl. 4. Use Table 6-5, “System Voltage Drop vs. Function Setting (Internal Resistance),” on page 6-30 to determine the setting, using the calculated Vd as a reference. Note: An alternate method of adjusting this function is provided in “Battery Discharge Indicator (BDI)” on page 523. Factory Set: 24V:025 36V:025

Function 15

Function 16 (push CONT and 1)

Pedal Position Plug

Description Allows adjustment of the stopping distance during plug range. Throttle position will reduce the plugging current to the current value set by this function as the control is returned to the creep speed position. The setting is adjustable from 100 amperes (unit 0) to 930 amps (unit 255). Each handset unit is equal to 3.2 amps. For example, a setting of 20 = 164 amperes. Factory Set: 24V:040

36V:040

To disable the throttle position plug function, adjust the current value to the same current value as the plug distance current. Example: If plug distance current (Function 5) is set at 500 amps, then set throttle plug current at 500 amps. With this setting, throttle position will have no effect on plugging distance. Function 17 (push CONT and 2)

Card Type Selection

Allows selection of the controller card type used with the customer application. The EV100LX controls offer a variety of options within each control type; the card must be programmed to “know” what options are on the truck control system. Each card contains a two-letter designation number. Replacement cards must match the current installed card number. Factory Set: 24V:022

Function 18 (push CONT and 3)

Steer Pump Time Delay

Allows for the selection of steer pump contactor pickup input, either deadman switch or directional switch closing and adjustment of the time delay for the contactor dropout. Settings from 0 to 128 control deadman switch operation and 199 to 255 control directional switch operation. Directional switch closure with dropout will occur 3.5 seconds after lever is returned to neutral; the contactor will also drop out 1.5 seconds after the deadman switch opens. This function can be adjusted from 1.5 seconds (unit 0) to 65 seconds (unit 128). In both situations each unit of the handset equals 0.5 seconds. For example, a setting of 149 = 10.5 seconds.

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Troubleshooting the Interface Card System

Troubleshooting the Interface Card System The Interface Card (Figure 6-14 on page 6-76) incorporates a number of features to help facilitate debugging. These features fall into two groups: • Status codes • Diagnostic procedures Troubleshooting usually begins with a status code, which leads into one or more diagnostic procedures. See Table 6-7, “Interface Card Codes,” on page 6-77 for a listing of the codes. Based on the status, the service technician should read the corresponding status code explanation. The status code pages explain how the code is caused and what troubleshooting is necessary to isolate the problem. Often you are directed to run one or two more tests. If a particular test fails, then appropriate troubleshooting listed in that test’s section should also be performed. Generally, as long as the Interface Card is functioning enough to display a status code, then it can also run the setup procedure (Learn).

Running Learn

Some status or fault code conditions can be corrected by running Learn.. For example, the Throttle Potentiometer might stop at a different neutral setting than previously Learned. The troubleshooting section for the particular code will indicate if Learn should be run. Test mode does not depend on any of the Learned constants. Therefore, running Learn will never affect the results of any test. It is generally unproductive to indiscriminately run in the Learn mode as a response to every problem. However, as long as the Learn procedure is performed properly, there is no harm in running in the Learn mode, even when it was not required.

! WARNING

Setting up the Truck

Remove rings, watches, and all jewelry before doing any work on the truck. 1. Before working on the truck: a. Lower the load handling mechanism completely to the floor. b. All controls must be in neutral. c. Release any trapped pressure in the hydraulic system. d. Block the wheels to prevent movement of the truck. e. Disconnect the battery connector. f. Elevate the drive tire off the floor.

! WARNING Use extreme care whenever the truck is jacked up for any reason. Never block the truck between the telescopic and the floor. Use a suitable hoist to stabilize the mast. Keep hands and feet clear from beneath the truck while jacking. Use jack stands or solid blocks to support the truck; do not rely on jacks. See “Jacking the Truck” on page 5-3. 2. For 36-volt trucks, move Dip Switch S1-1 to the OFF or open position. Make sure that jumper E2 is in the 36V position (Figure 6-14 on page 6-76). 3. For 24-volt trucks, move Dip Switch to the ON or closed position. Make sure that jumper E2 is in the 24V position (Figure 6-14 on page 6-76). 4. Verify the throttle potentiometer neutral setting: a. Connect the voltmeter leads to TP2 (positive) and TP3 (negative) on the Interface Card next to the Dip Switches (Figure 6-14 on page 6-76). b. Connect the battery and turn the key switch ON. c. Adjust VR1 until the voltage at the test points indicate 2.50 volts. There is no tolerance for this setting. When complete, turn the key switch OFF and remove the meter leads. 5. Learn the throttle potentiometer: a. Move the Dip Switch S1-7 to the ON or closed position. b. Turn the key switch to ON. An "L" appears on the Interface Card Display. c. Return S1-7 to the OFF or open position. The horn sounds a single beep and a "J" appears on the display. Move the throttle control to full speed in the forks first direction. The horn will beep twice. Release the throttle control. A single beep from the horn indicates neutral. Now do the opposite direction and see a "0" on the display. d. Check that the Interface Card displays "0". The truck is now ready to operate. e. Fully engage the brake.

! CAUTION Do not release the brake while performing the following Step f. f. Verify speed control to the GE EV100 Control by measuring voltage at TB1 (positive) and TP4 (negative) on the Interface Card while applying full throttle in either direction. Voltage should be less than or equal to 0.5 volts.

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Troubleshooting the Interface Card

Troubleshooting the Interface Card This section is for troubleshooting the truck when a system code is not displayed on the Interface Card or other troubleshooting has not resolved the problem.

Display on Interface Card is Dark

Symptom: Key switch ON, Display on Interface Card is completely dark: 1. Check FU4. FU4 protects the B+ supply to the Interface Card. 2. Check FU5. FU5 protects the B- (PGND/DGND) of the Interface Card. 3. Check key switch S1. 4. Check the continuity and connections of the wires between: •

B+ to TP5

TP5 to FU4-1

FU4-2 to S1-1.

S1-2 to JPS9-13 (B+ Key).

JPS4-7(PGND) and -8 (DGND) to FU5-2

FU5-1 to TP4 (or terminal N on the EV100 Panel)

TP4 to B-

5. Replace the Interface Card and Firmware. Remember to run Learn if the Interface Card is replaced.

No Auxiliary Functions; Aux. Motor Runs; Other Functions OK

Symptom: No auxiliary functions operate, truck travels normally, lift/ lower is OK. The auxiliary pump runs when the deadman pedal is pressed and steering is functional. 1. With the battery connected, check for B+ at: •

JPS9-15 (B+ Fused). If no B+, trace the wiring back to FU4-2.

JPS9-1 (B+ Fused). If no B+ is found, replace the Interface Card.

2. With the battery connected and the key switch turned ON, check for B+ at: •

JPS5-5 (B+ Key). If no B+ is found, replace the Interface Card.

Pin 2 of the reach, sideshift, and tilt solenoid coils. If no B+ is found, check the wiring between pin 2 of each auxiliary function to JPS5-5 (B+ Key) on the Interface Card.

3. Check for continuity between terminal 1 of each function to the respective connection at the Interface Card. 4. Replace the Interface Card and Firmware.

6-86

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Troubleshooting the Interface Card

Remember to run Learn if the Interface Card is replaced.

Auxiliary Motor Does not Run; Other Functions OK

Symptom: No auxiliary functions operate, truck travels normally. Lift/ lower is OK. The auxiliary pump does not run when the deadman pedal is pressed. 1. With the key switch turned ON, check for B+ at JPS4-5. If no B+ is found, replace the Interface Card. Remember to run Learn if the Interface Card is replaced. 2. Check for B+ at PB3 and TB4 on the GE EV100 controller. If no B+ is found, troubleshoot the circuit back to the Interface Card. This would include checking the wiring and auxiliary contactor coil for continuity. 3. If B+ is found at PB3 and TB4, check for B+ at TB3. If B+ is not at TB3, check for B+ (approx.) at JPS3-7. If not found, replace the Interface Card. If B+ is at JPS3-7 then troubleshoot the wiring between JPS3-7 and TB3. 4. If B+ is found at TB3, PB3 and TB4, the GE EV100 controller is defective.

One Auxiliary Function Is Inoperative

Symptom: One auxiliary function is inoperative; all other functions work properly. 1. The easiest way to isolate the problem is to remove the wires from the auxiliary coil that does not work and connect the wires to it from an auxiliary function that is OK. An example follows: a. Assume that reach does not work. The other functions are OK. Remove the wires from terminal 1 and 2 at the reach solenoid coil. b. Temporarily remove the wires from either sideshift or tilt and connect them to the reach solenoid coil. Make sure that you connect the wires to the correct terminals. c. Activate sideshift (or tilt). • If reach works then it is either defective wiring between terminal TS21-3 or the reach solenoid , and the Interface Card at JPS5-3. The Interface Card could be defective. • If reach does not work either the coil is not getting B+ from JPS5-5 on the Interface Card or the reach solenoid coil is defective. • If you know the coil is working properly and getting power, there might be a mechanical reason that the solenoid is not working. Chips or other contaminants in the hydraulic oil might have caused the solenoid to seize.

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Troubleshooting the Interface Card

2. When finished, ensure that all wiring is returned to the respective solenoid coils.

Auxiliary Functions Operate In Only One Direction: Steering OK

Symptom: Auxiliary functions work in only one direction, i.e., reach no retract; tilt down - no tilt up; sideshift right - no sideshift left. 1. Check SFC switches and wiring. 2. Check for B+ and the coils of DIRA/DIRB solenoids on the hydraulic manifold. NOTE: If both DIRA and DIRB solenoids can be activated, the problem might be a defective valve. 3. Check the valve by: a. Temporarily remove the solenoid retaining nut. b. Remove one solenoid from the stem; activate the remaining solenoid. c. Slide the activated solenoid up and down the stem; check that the related valve-controlled function (physical movement) follows the manual movements of the coil. d. Replace valve if movement does not occur.

No Lift

Troubleshoot EV100 lift interrupt, wiring, Interface Card B+, lift switch, relief valve, and manual valve.

No Lower

Check lower switch and load holding (L/H) solenoid.

No Travel, Other Functions OK

Symptom: The truck will not travel, all other functions OK.

6-88

Jack the truck up so that the drive tire is off the floor. 1. Press the deadman pedal, move the throttle and look at the display on the Interface Card. •

If you see 2 or 3 on the display it means that the throttle potentiometer is working correctly and that the processor on the Interface Card is OK. The problem could be caused by bad wiring, defective contactor coil, the GE EV100 controller, or the Interface Card.

If a 2 or 3 is not on the display, it means that the problem could be caused by K2, wiring, throttle potentiometer, or the Interface Card.

PDMM-0058


Mitsubishi® Reach Service Manual

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Troubleshooting the Interface Card

Code 2 or 3 is NOT displayed when throttle is moved. 1. Check that the deadman switch (S2) operates properly. 2. With the pedal pressed, check for continuity between S1-2 and JPS9-14 (deadman coil Gnd). If continuity is not found, it might be caused by an open in the: a. wiring between S1-2 and S2-1. b. wiring between S2-2 and K2-1. c. coil of the K2 relay. If the coil, replace K2. NOTE: If K2 has failed, make sure that DIP switch S1-1 and jumper E2 are positioned properly on the Interface Card. See the table below: Truck Voltage

4. Check that the K2 relay is operating properly. With K2 energized (key switch ON, deadman down), B+ should be at terminal 3 on relay as well as JPS9-16 (deadman) on the Interface Card. If B+ is not found, replace the K2 relay. 5. Replace the Interface Card. Remember to run Learn if the firmware or Interface Card is replaced. Code 2 or 3 IS displayed when throttle is moved. 1. With the key switch ON and the deadman pedal pressed, check for B+ at TB2, PB4, and PB5 on the GE EV100 controller (all with respect to TP4). a. If B+ is not found, check the wiring between the GE EV100 and JPS4-4 (deadman) on the Interface Card. b. If the wiring in step (a) checks good, check for B+ at JPS4-4 (key switch ON, deadman pressed). If B+ is not found, replace the Interface Card. Remember to run Learn if the firmware or Interface Card is replaced.

2. Check the contactor coils for opens or shorts. 3. Check the wiring between the GE EV100 controller and the Interface Card for continuity. 4. Check the voltage at TB1 on the GE EV100 controller. With the handle full forward or reverse, voltage should be 0.5 volts (the voltage in the neutral position should be 3.5-3.65 and changes in steps as a faster speed is requested). If voltage is not as specified: a. Check the voltage at TB5 and TB6; B+ should be present on one location. If not check the wiring. b. Disconnect wire from TB1 on the GE controller. Connect the meter to the end of the disconnected wire. If the voltage readings are still not correct, check the throttle potentiometer and wiring. c. If the throttle potentiometer and wiring check OK, replace the Interface Card. d. If the problem is still not corrected, replace the GE EV100 controller. Remember to run Learn if the firmware or Interface Card is replaced.

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Troubleshooting the Interface Card

No Speed Limit

Symptom: The truck will not limit the speed regardless of the position of the forks. Remember to turn the truck OFF each time you make or break an electrical connection. 1. Check to make sure that the GE EV100 is configured correctly for the speed limit option. a. If the truck has the first mast switch option (Mast SW1), Function 11 on the GE handset must be set to 125 to enable a speed limit of approximately 3.5 mph. 2. If the truck has the second mast switch option (Mast SW2), DIP switch S1-4 on the Interface Card should be set as follows: •

S1-4 OFF = speed limit enabled. Also, Function 12 on the GE handset must be set to 145 to enable a speed limit of approximately 2.0 mph.

S1-4 ON = speed limit disabled.

3. Turn the truck OFF. 4. Disconnect the mast switch (JPN7/JPN8) from the circuit. 5. Turn the truck ON. 6. If the truck is speed limited, the switch is defective. 7. Turn the truck OFF. 8. Disconnect JPN1 from the Interface Card. 9. Turn the truck ON. 10. If the truck is still not speed limited with JPN1 disconnected from the Auxiliary Interface Card, the cable is probably bad. This can be verified by checking the continuity of the cable. 11. If the truck is not speed limited and the cable checks good, replace the Interface Card. Remember to run Learn if the firmware or Interface Card is replaced.

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Troubleshooting the Interface Card

No Lift Inhibit

Symptom: The mast fails to stop elevating at the lift inhibit switch. Remember to turn the truck OFF each time you make or break an electrical connection. 1. Check that DIP S1-8 on the Interface Card is set properly. •

S1-8 OFF = lift inhibit option enabled.

S1-8 ON - lift inhibit option disabled

2. Turn the truck OFF. 3. Disconnect the lift mast switch (JPN12) and lift inhibit bypass switch (JPN13) from the Auxiliary Interface Card. If the forks will not elevate above the lift inhibit height, either the mast switch or bypass switch is defective. a. Turn the truck OFF. b. Connect the mast switch (JPN12) to the Auxiliary Interface Card. Leave JPN13 disconnected. c. Turn the truck ON. d. If the forks will not elevate above the lift inhibit height, the lift inhibit bypass switch is bad. If the forks elevate above the limit, replace the lift inhibit switch. 4. Disconnect JPN1 from the Interface Card. If the forks elevate, the Auxiliary Interface Card is defective. 5. If the forks do not elevate with JPN1 disconnected from the Auxiliary Interface Card, the cable is probably bad. This can be verified by checking the continuity of the cable. 6. If the forks elevate and the cable checks good, replace the Interface Card. Remember to run Learn if the firmware or Interface Card is replaced.

Notes: Notes • Testing Travel Potentiometer (VR1) • Travel pot is 2K ohms + or - 10% (1900-2100 ohms). • Full travel in either direction should change reading from neutral to approximately 200220 ohms in a smooth progressive manner. If the reading jumps out of sequence, it indicates a defective potentiometer.

Appendix A: Charts and Schematics Brush Replacement

Brush Replacement If any of the brushes require replacement, the complete brush set should be replaced. Do not replace just one or two brushes. See the following table for minimum brush lengths. 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. Where accessible, new brushes should be seated to the commutator curvature. This can be accomplished by wrapping a piece of 00 sandpaper around the commutator, seating the brush in the brush holder, and turning the armature. On smaller motors where space is limited, a brush seating stone may be used. DO NOT use emery cloth to seat brushes. After the brushes are seated, the dust should be blown out of the motor with dry compressed air (30 PSI [207 kPa]). Table A-7: Minimum Brush Lengths
