INTRODUCTION
General

The contents of this Repair Manual, although correct at the time of publication, may be subject to alteration by
the manufacturer without notice.

This manual assumes that maintenance personnel have a sound knowledge of workshop practices and
safety procedures associated with the repairs of this type of machine. This manual is designed to assist with
the more specialised information required for removal and strip-down of major components.

It is recommended that the relevant part of this Repair Manual is studied carefully before proceeding with any
maintenance.

To prevent injury to personnel and damage to equipment and machinery, care must be taken to operate in a
safe manner. Read the Safety Warnings that follow and always work in a safe manner and obey the relevant
Warnings.

Throughout this manual and on the machine there are safety notes. Each note starts with a single word. The
meaning of these single words is as follows:

Identifies a hazard exists. If proper precautions are not taken, it is highly probable that the
operator (or others) could be killed or seriously injured.

Identifies a reminder of safety practices. Failure to observe these safety practices could result
in injury to the operator (or others) or damage to the machine.

In general these notes are used to indicate that the procedures being described in the manual must be
followed to avoid serious injury or death to yourself or others. The notes are also used to protect the machine
from unsafe maintenance practices.
SAFETY WARNINGS
Always wear correct fitting protective clothing. Loose or baggy clothing can be extremely
dangerous when operating or maintaining a machine.

Where possible, only work on or close to engines or machinery when they are stopped. If this
is not practical, remember to keep tools, test equipment and all parts of your body well away
from moving parts.

Avoid contact with exhaust pipes and exhaust manifolds when the engine is running; these
can be very hot.

Many liquids used on this machine are harmful if taken internally or splashed into the eyes. In
the event of accidentally swallowing oil, diesel fuel, anti-freeze, battery acid etc., DO NOT
induce vomiting, but OBTAIN QUALIFIED MEDICAL ASSISTANCE IMMEDIATELY.

Always obtain advice before mixing oils; some are incompatible.

Never run an engine in an enclosed space unless an exhaust extraction system is used.

Always Disconnect battery cables before using an external charger to prevent damage to
electrical system components.

Always Disconnect battery cables before working on the electrical system to prevent injury
caused by electric shock.

When it is necessary to work on the electrical system with power on, for fault diagnosis,

Steering and Accumulator Charge (STAC)


valve (10)

The STAC valve provides priority oil flow for the load
sensing steering and to charge the brake accumulator
for full power braking. The valve contains a 190 bar
Regulator (11), an Accumulator Charge Valve (12), two
filters (13 & 14) and a Priority Valve (15).
1.10 HYDRAULICS

1.13 The steering and accumulator charge valve


provides oil flow, on demand and with equal priority,
to both the steering and the accumulator charging
system. While providing steering and braking oil flow,
excess oil flow is also available for the attachments.

When the accumulator is fully charged, the valve


functions as a load-sense priority valve and supplies
flow to the steering system in response to the load
sense signal. If the steering pressure rises above the
accumulator pressure then the accumulator is
charged up to the higher steer pressure. If the
accumulator pressure falls to the preset cut-in level,
the valve closes the load sense line and supplies a
fixed flow to charge the accumulator until a preset
cut-out pressure is reached.

Steering is available while the charging occurs. When


the charging is completed, the load sense line
reopens and the valve reverts to the load sense
steering operation.

At start up, if the accumulator is discharged, the


accumulator charge valve (12) is closed due to the
action of the spring. The priority valve (15) is held to
the left by its spring. Pump flow is directed to port
(P), and into (P1) through the check valve C, and into
the accumulator (16) and brakes. Since (12) is
closed, no flow passes through the pilot lines so that
the pressure downstream of orifice (13) is applied via
(13a) and (L1) to the left hand end of the priority valve
(15) and the pressure upstream of (13) is applied via
(P1) and (P) to the right hand end of (15). The flow
through (13) creates a pressure drop such that the
pressure on the right hand end of the priority valve
(15) is greater than that on the left. If the pump output
is high enough the pressure difference on each end of
the valve will be sufficient to overcome the spring load
and the valve will move to the left and spill some flow
(excess flow) to the control valve (29) and then to the
various hydraulic systems. The flow rate to the
accumulator (16) is therefore controlled by orifice (13)
and the spring loads. As flow passes into the
accumulator (16) its pressure will rise, as will the
pressure at P1, until the accumulator charge valve
(12) opens.

Up to this point the pressure on each side of the


piston (B) at the accumulator charge valve (12) has
been virtually the same. However, when (12) opens
the pressure to the left of the piston (B) becomes
less than the pressure to the right because of
pressure drop across orifice (13a) and (13b).

Accumulator (16)
The nitrogen charged accumulator provides hydraulic
pressure for efficient operation of the brakes under all
pump load conditions. The accumulator is fitted on the
left, front side of the chassis.

Specifications

Pre-charge pressure 41 bar (595 psi)


Oil capacity 0.75 litre

Pressure switch (17)


The pressure switch illuminates a warning light in the
cab when brake pressure drops to below 116 bar.
The pressure switch is fitted at the outlet of the brake
accumulator (16).
Specification

Operating pressure 116 bar (1682 psi) falling

Brake pressure servo valve (18)

The valve operation is proportional to brake pedal


movement. When the brake pedal is pressed, the
valve allows pressure in the accumulator to apply the
brakes. When the brake pedal is released, the valve
closes the pressure line from the accumulator and
diverts brake pressure from the brake units to tank
to release the brakes.

Operation

With no force applied to the brake pedal, the valve is


in the neutral position and hydraulic system pressure
at the pressure port is blocked by the spool, the
brake pressure port is open to tank through the tank
port.

Initial application of the brake pedal moves the spool


into a position where all the ports are closed and
brake pressure has not been applied. Further
movement of the pedal moves the spool beyond the
closed position and allows pressurised fluid to flow to P Pressure
the brake port. When pedal movement is stopped, T Tank
the pressure at each end of the spool balances and A To brake
fluid flow stops. If further pressure is applied to the
brake pedal the spool will allow more fluid to pass to
the brakes until the spool balances again. Maximum
brake pressure is achieved when the brake pedal is
fully depressed and the piston is bottomed in the
housing.

When the brake pedal is released, the spool moves


to close the pressure port and gradually open the
tank port to allow brake pressure to return to tank.

Specification

OPERATION

Transmission

The transmission is operated hydraulically using a


hydrostatic drive pump, mounted on the crankshaft
output shaft. This pump drives the hydrostatic drive
motor and provides drive to the machine axles
through the drop down box.

The operator can control the transmission using the


following controls

· Accelerator pedal
· Brake pedal
· Direction control lever
· Speed limiter twist grip
· Progressive/Aggressive mode switch
· Parking brake

The accelerator pedal function is straightforward. The


further the pedal is pushed down, the faster the
machine wants to go.

The brake pedal is an inching pedal. This consists of


a potentiometer on the pedal that measures the
position of the pedal and transmits this to the
Hydrostatic electronic unit (Susmic). The Susmic will
deswash the Hydrostatic pump i.e. the transmission
is slowly put back into neutral. For the first part of the
brake pedal travel there is no actual braking on the
axles, only the pump being deswashed. The next
stage of brake pedal travel is an overlap period, which
includes the pump being further deswashed and the
brakes starting to be applied. The final stage is when
brake pedal travel puts the transmission fully in
neutral and fully applies the brakes. This set up
makes sure that the engine RPM can be high to give
full hydraulic flow while the machine moves forward
slowly rather than at full speed. It further prevents the
brakes having to work against the transmission.

The direction control lever controls the direction of


machine movement i.e. when the lever is moved
forward the machine moves forwards. When the lever
is moved backwards, the machine moves in reverse.
For safety reasons, the lever must be lifted up from
the neutral position to enable it to be moved to the
forward or reverse selection.
1.35 HYDRAULICS

The speed limiter is the twist grip fitted to the


direction control lever and controls the Hydrostatic
motor. The speed limiter limits the maximum speed
(independent from the individual country road
regulatory maximum speeds) to 8 km/hr. This is a
useful feature when the machine is working in
confined spaces. While the operator still has full
engine RPM available for efficient hydraulic operation,
the machine will only reach a maximum speed of 8
km/hr without the operator having to operate the
inching pedal.

The Aggressive/Progressive mode switch changes


the characteristics of the Hydrostatic pump and
therefore transmission behaviour as follows:

Progressive mode – gives good resolution at low to


medium engine speeds, i.e. for a large
movement of the accelerator pedal there is a
small increase in machine speed, allowing
accurate control over the machine (e.g.
placement work).

Also gives good anti-stall characteristics at


medium to high engine speeds i.e. for a small
drop in engine speed there is a large speed
reduction and an increase in tractive effort and
therefore the engine does not stall when the
machine movement is blocked (e.g. heavy duty
rehandling).

Aggressive mode – gives a sharp speed increase with


a small amount of accelerator pedal movement
gives a quick accelerating machine with a very
responsive behaviour (e.g. rehandling and rapid
shuttling work).

NOTE: The driving behaviour is different only in the


engine speed range of approximately 900 to 2000
RPM. Outside that range the Aggressive and
Progressive characteristics are identical and
consequently the machine will reach the same final
speed.

When applying the parking brake, the Hydrostatic


pump is put into neutral and therefore the
transmission is in neutral. This is to prevent the
machine burning the brake discs.
HYDRAULICS 1.36

Hydrostatic pump

The drive shaft (14) of the pump is driven by the


engine and is connected to the pump rotor (8) and
charge pump (6). During rotation, high pressure oil
(5) moves the rods (10), arranged radially around the
the drive shaft, against the slides (12). The slides are
in contact with the pump swash plate (2).

The SUSMIC control module monitors the speed of


the engine with a speed sensor and uses this data to
control a solenoid valve (11). This solenoid valve
operates the servo-valve (11), which then positions
the servo-ram (9). The servo ram (9) controls the
swash plate (2), according to the direction of travel
and speed. The rods (10) will move axially to force oil
from the rotor cylinder, after which the rods (10) are
moved back by the charge pressure on the 'falling'
side of the swash plate (2). Oil fills the low pressure
side of the inclined swash plate (8) and is then forced
out when the swash plate (8) rotates to the high
pressure side. The rotating and inclined swash plate
(8) pumps oil from the cylinder, dependant on
rotational speed and the angle on inclination created
by the rods (10). The swash plate is returned to the
neutral position by the return springs (4) and
alignment of the neutral position is achieved with the
eccentric sscrews (3).

Control Valve
NOTE: Identification numbers in bold type after an
item refers to the number in the main hydraulic
schematic illustration.

Hydraulic fluid reaches the control valve inlet section


from the main pump. Spools are closed-centre, dead
headed into a pressure adjustment spool. When a
spool is actuated, pressure is directed to the service
with return flow diverted to tank.

If the control/spool is not released when the spool


reaches the end of its travel, the fluid builds up
pressure.

It is important that the relief valves


are not allowed to remain open for
more than a few seconds, otherwise
extreme fluid temperatures will result
and cause damage to the hydraulic
seals and reduce the life of the
hydraulic fluid.
The speed of operation of the services is related to
the amount of spool movement.

If external pressure is generated by accidental


contact with buildings or road surfaces, etc, the
System is protected by installation of relief valves.

Relief valves
Relief valves are fitted to the control valve to control
system pressure and the carriage/crowd service
pressure.

The boom extend/retract, lift/lower and all auxiliary


pressures are protected by the main system relief
valve in the inlet section of the control valve and is set
to operate at 240 bar (3480 psi).

Do not adjust the factory set relief


valves in the crowd spool.

The crowd spool contains two relief valves, one for the
crowd forward or dump set at 125 bar (1812 psi) and
one for the crowd back set at 210 bar (3045 psi).

Relief valves are factory set and cannot be adjusted.

STEERING

Description

The steering system is fully hydrostatic. This means


that the steering motion is transmitted hydraulically
with no mechanical linkage between the steering
wheel and the steered wheels. The hydraulic supply
is by a dynamic system working with a load-sensing
(LS) pump. Pump supply passes through a priority
valve and generates a load-sensing signal.

Operation

The OSPF steering unit interfaces the steering


control valve with an adapter. Depending on the
steering mode selected in the cab, (two-wheel steer/ C1 To rear cylinder
four-wheel steer/crab steer), the steering control valve
C2 To rear cylinder
directs oil to the selected steering cylinder when
input is made from the steering wheel. C4 To front cylinder
P LS - Pump
In the neutral position, oil is allowed to flow freely T Tank
from the priority valve through the steering control
valve to return (LS to T). As the steering wheel is
turned the spools of the valve rotate against each
other and proportionally direct oil to the selected
steering cylinder. Not until the rotary valve is fully
open is the LS connection to the tank fully closed.

A pressure relief valve is fitted in the control valve. If


the pressure rises above 175 bar (2537 psi), the PRV
will open and return excess pressure to tank.

Two shock valves are fitted in the control valve, to


protect the cylinders and hoses and are set at a
higher pressure than the PRV.

When hydraulic pressure fails, the vehicle can be


steered manually. The steering wheel, when turned,
drives the outer spool with the cross pin and the rotor
is turned by the cardan shaft which acts as a manual
pump to supply oil to the steering cylinder. In this
case the steering effort required will be increased
significantly.

Take care when handling cylinders,
to avoid damage to components and
injury to personnel.

The dismantling and assembly procedure is based on


the extension cylinder. The procedures for all other
cylinders are similar.

Dismantling

1. Clean the exterior of the cylinder with a suitable


solvent and dry with compressed air. Do not use
cloths or paper towels to dry component.

2. Drain the cylinder of as much hydraulic fluid as


possible, into a suitable container, before
dismantling.

3. Support the cylinder on ‘V’ blocks and make sure


that when the piston is removed the components are
not damaged.

If compressed air is used to extend


the piston assembly, the gland nut
(13) must not be removed. Release
all pressure before the gland nut is
removed.

4. When the piston assembly is difficult to extend, a


compressed air supply may be used to pressurise
the cylinder. Use only the minimum pressure
necessary to extend piston.

5. Using a suitable spanner, unscrew the gland


assembly (18) from the cylinder (1).

6. Withdraw the piston rod (19) complete with piston


assembly (9) from the cylinder (1). If necessary, fit a
suitable size pin through the eye-end of the piston rod
and carefully tap with a soft-faced hammer to remove
piston rod.
HYDRAULICS 1.102

7. Remove the grub screw (4) from the piston (8) and
unscrew and remove the piston (8) from the piston rod
(19).

8. Remove and discard all seals and O-rings (3), (5),


(6) and (10) from the piston (8).

9. Remove and discard all seals and O-rings (10),


(11), (12), (14), (16) and (17) from the gland nut (13).

The load control valve is factory set


and should not be dismantled or
adjusted except for resealing.

10. If the load control valve (2) is faulty, remove by


unscrewing. A new control valve (2) must be fitted.

Assembly

1. Assemble the hydraulic cylinder in the reverse


order to dismantling.

2. Use new O-rings, seals and spacers during


assembly.

3. Make sure all old Loctite is removed from the


threads of the piston, piston rod and grub screw
before assembly. Apply Loctite sealant to threads of
piston rod and securely screw piston to piston rod
before fitting grub screw.

4. Lubricate O-rings, seals and spacers with clean


hydraulic oil before and during assembly.

5. Torque tighten the components in accordance with


the Table on the following page.

LONGITUDINAL STABILITY INDICATOR

Description

The Longitudinal Stability Indicator (LSI) monitors the


forward stability of the machine. The LSI provides
audible and visual signals in order to alert the
operator to the condition of a loaded machine.

The main components of the LSI are a sensor (2)


and a display module (1). The sensor is mounted on
the rear axle and the display module is located
inside the cab on the cab right side console. An
intermediate harness (3) connects to the display
module connector (5) and the sensor. The
intermediate harness is routed from the space
between the rear of the cab and the hydraulic control
valve through the cab to the instrument panel. The
LSI is powered by the machines electrical system
and power is supplied to the display module through
a connector (4). The following Table 1 shows the
power supply required to operate the LSI.
ELECTRICS 2.16

The LSI is activated when the engine start switch is Pow er Supply
turned to the ON position. The sensor sends
Nominal Voltage 12 Volts DC
electrical signals to the display module which then
provide the operator with audible and visual signals. Voltage Range 10.5 Volts to 15.5 Volts
The display module attempts to simulate the load Current 100mA to 300mA (1)
chart for the machine.
(1) The current will depend on the load that is indicated on the
display module.
The electrical signal that is sent from the sensor to
the display module is proportional to the strain that is
applied to the sensor. The sensor is subject to the
same strains that are applied to the rear axle. These
strains depend on the weight of the load that is
carried on the work tool and the amount of boom
extension.

The sensor is a sealed unit with a wiring harness


and plug attached.

The sensor (2) is bonded and secured by three bolts


(6) to the top of the rear axle.

The type of sensor installed on the machine is


known as a strain sensor or strain gauge. The strain
sensor measures the change in electrical resistance
that results from the amount of strain (stretch) that is
applied to the wires in the sensor. Factors that affect
the amount of strain applied to the sensor are listed
below.

1. The weight of the load that is carried on the


work tool.

2. The amount of boom extension.

3. The angle of the boom.

As the electrical resistance in the sensor changes, a


change in voltage is measured by the display
module. As more strain is applied to the sensor, a
greater change in voltage is measured.

The display module (1) is mounted in the cab side


console on the right side of the cab. The display
module provides audible and visual signals in order
to alert the operator to the forward stability of the
machine.

A harness with two connectors is attached to the


display module. The 4-way connector (5) is used to
connect the display module via an intermediate
wiring harness (3), that is routed through the cab, to
the harness on the sensor (2) fitted to the rear axle.
The second connector (4), a 2-way version, is used
to connect to the main electrical system of the
machine to provide power to the LSI.

The display module measures the load from the


sensor by changes in voltage. This is then
calculated as a percentage value of the maximum
load. Indicators are then illuminated on the panel of
the display module according to the percentage
value. The display module has eleven indicators.
ELECTRICS 2.18

The display module indicators and switches are


listed below. The indicators and mute switch are
located on the front of the display module.

Green indicator (7) shows that the LSI is


receiving power and is powered up.

NOTE: The single green indicator does not indicate


correct operation or guarantee calibration.

Green indicator (8) is a 50% load indicator.

Green indicator (9) is a 60% load indicator.

Green indicator (10) is a 65% load indicator.

Green indicator (11) is a 70 % load indicator.

Green indicator (12) is a 75% loads indicator.

Green indicator (13) is a 80% load indicator.

Amber indicators (14) and (15) are 75% load


indicators.

Red indicators (16) and (17) are 100% load


indicators.

Switch (18) marked


! initiates a self-
diagnostic routine test for the display module
and is also used to mute the alarm audible
warning. It is also used for setting a zero
point when calibrating the display module.

The following push buttons are located on the side of


the display module.

Push button (19) is labelled “CAL”. This is an


on/off switch for the calibration mode.

Push button (20) is labelled ”Span” and push


button (21) is labelled “Span+%”. These push
buttons are used in the calibration mode to
obtain the calibration point for setting the
indicators.

When the engine start switch is turned to the ON


position, for the first two to three seconds, all
indicators will be illuminated and the audible alarm
will sound. This indicates that the display module is
performing an internal self-check. When the display
module has completed its internal self-check all
indicators except indicator (7) will be extinguished
and the audible alarm will cease. Indicator (7) will
remain illuminated at all times that the system is
powered up. Any error signals displayed in the first
30 seconds after power up should be disregarded.
2.19 ELECTRICS

When the load on the machine increases from 50%


to 80% green indicators (8), (9), (10), (11), (12) and
(13) illuminate progressively. When one or two
green indicators are illuminated the lift operation is
within the machine stability. When all the green
indicators are illuminated the lift operation is still
within the machines capability but extra caution is
necessary.

When the amber indicators (14) and (15) illuminate


the audible alarm sounds intermittently. This
indicates that the limit for the longitudinal stability of
the machine has been reached. Extra caution is
necessary. Do not increase the outreach of the
load.

When red indicators (16) and (17) are illuminated


and the audible alarm sounds continuously, the limit
for the longitudinal stability of the machine has been
exceeded. When this condition occurs, do not
proceed with the lift operation. To restore
longitudinal stability to the machine the following
steps must be carried out in this sequence.

1. Retract the boom (if boom is extended).


2. Lower boom (if boom is elevated).

TESTING AND ADJUSTMENT

Troubleshooting

Machine preparation for troubleshooting.

NOTE: Full rear wheel steering onto the axle stops


can give a false reading on the display module.

The machine must be prepared correctly before


attempting any troubleshooting on the system. Use
the following procedure to prepare the machine.

1. Park the machine on level ground.

2. Engage the parking brake.

3. Retract the boom.

4. Lower the coupler and the work tool to the


ground.

5. Stop the engine.

Visual inspection

Carry out a visual inspection of the main system


components before attempting any instrument
checks on the system. Use the following procedure
to inspect the system.
ELECTRICS 2.20

1. Inspect the display module for damage or


loose mounting.

2. Inspect the sensor on the rear axle for


loose attachment bolts.

3. Inspect the sensor on the rear axle for


secure bonding and signs of corrosion at the
bonded surface.

4. Inspect the wiring harness, that connects


the system components together, look for cuts
or other damage.

System Check

NOTE: Disregard any error indications displayed


during the first 30 seconds after power up.

1. Turn the engine start switch to the ON


position. All the indicators will be illuminated
for two to three seconds and the audible
alarm will sound. This indicates that the LSI is
performing an internal self-check. On
completion of self-check all indicators except
indicator (7) will be extinguished and the
audible alarm will cease.

NOTE: If self-check is performed with a load on the


boom, more than one indicator will remain
illuminated.

2. Refer to the appropriate load chart. Pick up


a load that is heavy enough to tip the machine
when the boom is fully extended and raise the
coupler 150 mm (6 in.) above the ground.

NOTE: Keep the coupler 150 mm (6 in.) above the


ground.

3. Extend the boom in stages and observe the


indicators on the display module. As the
boom is extended indicators (8) through (13)
on the display module must illuminate
progressively.

4. Continue to extend the boom. As the boom


approaches the point of instability, amber
indicators (14) and (15) must be illuminated
and the audible alarm sounds at
approximately half second intervals.

5. Continue to extend the boom. As the boom


extends past the point of instability, red
indicators (16) and (17) illuminate and the
audible alarm sounds continuously.

6. Retract the boom.


2.21 ELECTRICS

7. Press and hold ! switch (18). All


indicators must illuminate and the audible

alarm must sound. When the ! switch


(18) is released the display module should
return to normal operation.

NOTE: If the system does not behave as expected


there may be a fault or the system could require
calibration. Refer to section headed “Calibration”.

Error indications from the display module

• If none of the indicators are illuminated the display


module may not be receiving power. Alternatively an
internal protection device may have operated due to
a fault in the system. Unplug the power
connector(4) for the display module and check the
power supply. If there is power to the module and
the fault persists install a new display module. Refer
to section headed “Display module - Replace” for the
procedure.

• If indicator (7) is flashing quickly and indicator (10)


and (11) are illuminated, the output from the sensor
may be negative. The output from the sensor may
be more than 100% of the load range. If so the
system requires calibration. Refer to section headed
“Calibration”.

• If indicators (8), (9), (10), (11), (12) and (13) flash


slowly there is a fault in the display module. Replace
the display module. Refer to section headed
“Display module - Replace” for the procedure.

• If all the indicators are flashing slowly except


indicator (7), which is flashing quickly, the sensor
may be damaged or disconnected. Check the
connection to the sensor. Check the operation of the
sensor using a spare sensor. If necessary replace
the damaged sensor and calibrate the system.
Refer to sections headed “Sensor Test” and
“Calibration” for the procedure.

• If the audible alarm sounds continuously and the


machine is not overloaded the display module is not
calibrated correctly. Also if all the indicators are
illuminated and the machine is not overloaded the
display module is not calibrated correctly. Refer to
section headed “Calibration” for the procedure.

The sensor is bonded to the centre of the rear axle


of the machine. Problems that are associated with
the sensor are usually due to a break in the electrical
circuit or failure of the adhesive that bonds the
sensor to the rear axle.
ELECTRICS 2.22

A break in the electrical circuit usually results in all


the indicators on the display module flashing slowly
except indicator (7) which will flash quickly. The
audible alarm will also sound intermittently.

A failure of the adhesive that bonds the sensor to the


rear axle usually results in no readout or erratic
readout from the display module.

Procedure to test the operation of the


sensor

1. Park machine on level ground.

2. Engage parking brake

3. Fully retracted boom.

4. Fully lower boom.

5. If fitted, remove work tool from coupler.

6. Ensure wheels are set to straight ahead.

7. Stop the engine.

8. Turn engine start switch to ON position.


The display module in the cab will perform a
self-check.
On completion of self-check only green
indicator (7) should be illuminated.

If indicators (8) to (17) are flashing slowly and


indicator (7) is flashing quickly the sensor may be
damaged or disconnected.

(a) Check the two connections to the sensor.


One of the connectors is located behind
instrument panel (22). The other connection
is located between the rear of the cab and the
hydraulic control valve. This connects the
harness for the sensor to the intermediate
harness which is routed through the cab.

(b) Test the operation of the sensor by


substituting a spare sensor. If necessary
replace the sensor. Refer to “Procedure to
install sensor”.

If indicator (7) is flashing quickly and indicators (10)


and (11) are illuminated, the output from the sensor
may be negative. (The output of the sensor may be
more than 100% of the load range). Refer to
“Calibration procedure” and calibrate the system.

If the display module does not comply with any of the


previous steps in this procedure, the problem may
not be with the sensor. Refer to “Testing and
Adjustment - System Check” for further information.

Procedure to install a sensor

The sensor has three pads which are bonded and


bolted to the rear axle.

NOTES: (1) When bolted to the rear axle the


elements of the sensor must not be twisted or
stretched. If the elements are twisted or stretched
an offset will be applied to the sensor.
(2) When bonding sensor to rear axle
ensure matting surfaces are free from dirt, grease
and any other contamination. A poor bond will affect
the performance of the system.

Adhesive (154-8875) and activator (154-8876) are


required to install the sensor to the rear axle.

The procedure to install the sensor is as follows.

1. Disconnect the connector that attaches the


sensor to the intermediate harness. Remove
any cable straps that secure the sensor
harness.

2. Remove the three bolts that secure the


sensor to the rear axle and remove the
sensor.

3. Thoroughly clean the surface area on the


rear axle where the sensor is to be mounted.
All traces of adhesive must be removed.
Remove all traces of paint and corrosion. Use
a suitable cleaning agent to remove the main
debris and degrease the surface.

4. Ensure the area is thoroughly degreased


and dry with a suitable clean cloth.

5. Prepare the new sensor for fitting. Remove


any protective coating and thoroughly clean
the mating surface of the sensor.

6. Hold the sensor to the axle and check the


alignment of the three bolt holes. Loosely
install the three bolts and check that the
sensor is not pre-stressed by the bolts.

7. Remove the bolts and sensor.

8. Ensure the area is still clean and apply a


thin film of activator (154-8876) to the surface
area of the axle where the sensor is to be
mounted.

9. Apply a thin film of adhesive (154-8875) to


the mounting surface of the sensor.

2.25 ELECTRICS

8. Install two screws (23) in order to secure


the display module to cab side console.

9. Refer to “Calibration procedure” and


calibrate system.

Calibration

When a new sensor has been installed, or when a


new display module has been installed, the LSI
system must be calibrated.

When the system is calibrated, a zero point for the


load is first set. The zero point is set when the boom
coupler has no load fitted and the boom is lowered
and fully retracted. A load is then fitted to the boom
coupler and the 100% calibration point is set. Push
buttons (19), (20) and (21) on the display module are
used to set the calibration points.

Calibration procedure

Use the following procedure to set the zero and


100% calibration points:

Before proceeding with the calibration set up, ensure


the following conditions are met:

1. The machine is parked on level ground.

2. Wheels are steered to the straight ahead


position.

3. The boom is fully retracted.

4. The bottom of the coupler is 150 mm (6in.)


above the ground.

5. A work tool is not installed on the coupler.

6. The engine is running and the parking


brake is applied.

The calibration procedure is as follows:

1. Remove the display module (1) from the


cab side console in order to gain access to
the push buttons (19), (20) and (21) that are
required to calibrate the LSI. Refer to
“Procedure to replace the display module” for
further information.

2. Briefly press the push button (19) marked


“CAL” and release. This action will put the
display module in the calibrate mode. Green
indicator (7) and red indicator (16) should start
to flash quickly.
ELECTRICS 2.26

NOTE: If the display module is in the calibrate mode


and push button (19) is pressed, the display module
will return to the normal operate mode.

3. Wait approximately 15 seconds. Briefly

press the push button (18) marked !


and release. This will store the current load
as the zero calibration point. Green indicator
(7) must illuminate for two to three seconds.
Also the audible alarm must sound once to
indicate that the correct zero calibration point
has been set. The display module should
then revert to the calibration mode. The green
indicator (7) and the red indicator (16) must
flash quickly.

NOTE: When the zero calibration point is set, the


100% calibration point is set to a low value. This will
cause the audible alarm to sound continuously if the
100% calibration point is not set in the following
steps of this procedure.

4. Pick up an appropriate work tool. The work


tool must be of the type that will allow a load
heavy enough to tip the machine forward.

5. Refer to the appropriate load chart. Pick up


a load.

NOTE: The load must be heavy enough to just tip


the machine when the boom is fully extended in
order to obtain the correct calibration.

6. Extend the boom. Keep the bottom of the


coupler 150 mm (6in.) above the ground.
Continue to extend the boom until the
machine tips forward. The rear wheels must
be just off the ground.

7. Wait approximately 15 seconds until the


machine is not rocking.

NOTE: The machine must not be rocking or


vibrating.

8. Press the push button (21) marked


“SPAN+%” and release. A value of 100% is
then set. This is calculated from the current
load which is assumed to be 110%. Only the
red indicator (17) must illuminate for
approximately two to three seconds. Also the
audible alarm must sound three times. After
these warnings the display module should
revert to the calibrate mode. Green indicator
(7) and red indicator (16) must flash.
2.27 ELECTRICS

9. Press the push button (19) marked “CAL”


and release. The action will return the display
module to the normal operating mode. Green
indicator (7) and red indicator (16) will stop
flashing. If 100% load is still applied, all
indicators will illuminate and the audible alarm
will sound. Calibration of the system is now
complete.

10. Retract the boom. The rear wheels will


come back into contact with the ground.
Leave the load in place on the work tool.

11. Carefully extend and retract the boom


whilst observing the display module. Ensure
that the display module gives the readings that
are expected. Refer to “Description - Display
module”.

12. Set down the load and disengage from the


work tool.

13. Retract the boom. Lower the work tool to


the ground and stop the engine. Turn engine
start switch to OFF position.

Resetting the zero point

If it is necessary to readjust the zero point without


resetting the 100% calibration point, perform the
following procedure.

Before proceeding with the calibration set up ensure


the following conditions are met:

1. The machine is parked on level ground.

2. Wheels are steered to the straight ahead


position.

3. The boom is fully retracted.

4. The bottom of the coupler is 150 mm (6 in.)


above the ground.

5. A work tool is not installed on the coupler.

6. The engine is running and the parking


brake is applied.

The calibration procedure is as follows:

1. Remove the display module (1) from the


cab side console in order to gain access to
the push buttons (19), (20) and (21) that are
required to calibrate the LSI. Refer to
“Procedure to replace the display module” for
further information.
ELECTRICS 2.28

2. Ensure the display module is in the normal


operating mode.

3. Press the push button (20) marked “SPAN”


and hold pressed. Only the green indicator
(7) must flash.

4. At the same time press the ! button


(18) on the display module. Green indicator
(7) must illuminate continuously for two to
three seconds and the audible alarm must
sound once. Green indicator (7) must then
start to flash again. The zero setting has now
been reset, but the 100% calibration point has
remained unchanged.
