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.
Machine identification
To make sure that the correct parts are obtained, always quote the machine Serial Number when ordering
parts.
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.
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,
always have a safety man in attendance
Any dust found on the machine or produced during work on the machine should be removed
by extraction, not by blowing. Dust waste should be dampened, placed in a sealed container
and marked for safe disposal.
Always dump pressure from the hydraulic system before carrying out any maintenance or
adjustment (refer to page 1.1).
Fine jets of hydraulic fluid at high pressure can penetrate the skin. Do not use your fingers to
check for hydraulic fluid leaks. Do not put your face close to suspected leaks. If hydraulic fluid
penetrates your skin OBTAIN QUALIFIED MEDICAL ASSISTANCE IMMEDIATELY.
Never allow unqualified personnel to attempt to remove or replace any part of the machine.
Always use the correct lifting equipment to remove large or heavy components.
Never attempt to lift or hold up the machine using the lash-down points.

Description
The LSI is activated when the engine start switch is Pow er Supply

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.
