LUBRICATION AND ADJUSTMENT
Towing the Truck
DANGER
Tipovers can result in fatal accidents.
If the towing truck negotiates a bend, a
fork will slip under the truck that is being
towed. This can cause the towed truck to
tip over and result in fatal injuries.
Only travel straight ahead when towing.
When the truck is de-energised, the brake (acting on the
drive wheel) is applied. To remove the truck from an aisle,
for example , it can be raised and pulled by a f orklift truck.
The required capacity (WF unladen, with battery , 800 kg):
1100 kg. The load wheels remain on the ground when
the truck is towed.
CAUTION
Risk of damage to the drive system.
If the drive wheel is still touching the
ground, the drive system will be damaged when the truck is towed.
Only raise the truck so far that the drive
wheel is not touching the ground.
●Position the forks as shown in the diagram.
●Raise the truck (at its front) approx. 20 mm, but
no higher than necessary as otherwise the
bottom of the WF’s fork tips will scratch the
ground.

Maintenance
Recommended Lubricants and Oils
Lubricants
The next page shows typical lubricants used by Crown
itself in its factories. Howe ver , you can use any lubricants
provided they meet the same technical criteria.
Cold Store Trucks
Special hydraulic oil, lubrication oil and grease must be
used for cold store trucks operating in low temperature
conditions (see table on following page). An anticorrosion
fluid (Crown no. 805236-004) must be applied to all
screws, washers, nuts, pins, retaining rings etc. Carefully protect all electrical connections and components
against corrosion. F or detailed information, refer to chapter 4.
Service intervals must be adapted to the conditions of
use. This means they must be reduced as far as possible to prevent excessive wear.
Taking the truck out of service
●Every 3 months connect the battery, carry out a
daily inspection and activate all the truck functions. Now disconnect the battery again.
Bringing the truck back into service
●If you wish to bring the truck back into service,
proceed as follows:
●Remove any anti-corrosion agents which have
been additionally applied (apart from the cold
store agents)*.
●Jack up the truck, remove the wooden blocks and
lower the truck.
●Charge the battery or fit a charged battery.
●Connect the battery.
●Carry out the daily inspection.
* Do not apply high pressure cleaning agents and/or
solvents to the truck. Do not use metallic brushes. Do not
wet clean the electrical system and do not use flammable solvents.
If you wish to take the truck out of service for more than
3 months, proceed as follows:
●Disconnect the battery from the truck.
●Decommission the battery in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
●Clean the truck*). Lubricate in accordance with
the maintenance manual.
●If the truck is to be stored in harsh conditions
(e.g. saline atmosphere) treat the surface of the
truck with a suitable preservative to prevent
corrosion.
●Do not park the truck in the open air or in a
humid environment. The ideal place is a dry room
where the temperature and air humidity are as
constant as possible. If the truck has to be
covered, use an air-permeable material. Do not
use plastic sheets. Otherwise, condensation may
form.
●Jack up the truck. Lower the chassis onto suit-
able wooden blocks so that the wheels clear the
ground (prevents the wheels from flattening from
constant pressure).
Truck tipovers can result in fatal injuries.
The risk of a tipover is greatly increased
by setting the truck tilt angle beyond the
tolerance level.
Adjust the truck tilt angle regularly and
with care.
The stability of the truck requires the tilt
angle to be kept as low as possible.
Maximum stability is achieved by measuring the lateral
inclination and carrying out a lowering plumb test on the
mast with appropriate adjustment.
The inclination of the truck and therefore the mast
changes as the drive wheel and / or the caster wheel
increasingly wear.
●Fix the caster wheel again. Repeat the measurement to check the adjustment.
●If necessary, repeat the adjustment until the
difference in height on the two sides is within the
tolerance lev el.
●Now carry out the lowering plumb test.
Lowering Plumb Test
Test the lateral inclination before carrying out the
lowering plumb test.
The truck must be parked on a flat, level surface. The
max. permissible deviation from the evenness and
levelness of the 4 contact points on the truck (the
two load wheels, caster wheel and drive wheel) must
be less than 1 mm.
●Attach a test load (the maximum weight at maximum lift height and with the correct load centre of
gravity - see capacity plate).
The inclination of the truck must be checked and if necessary adjusted in the following cases:
●Lateral inclination and lowering plumb test at the
intervals given in the maintenance schedule.
●Replacing the drive wheel
●Replacing the caster wheel
●Replacing the mast
Testing and adjustment take place in 2 stages:
Testing and Adjusting the Lateral Inclination
The truck must be parked on a flat, level surface. The
max. permissible deviation from the evenness and
levelness of the 4 contact points on the truck (the
two load wheels, caster wheel and drive wheel) m ust
be less than 1 mm.
●Measure the skir t height off the ground (at the
separating joint) on the left and right hand sides.
The difference between the left and right hand
sides should not exceed +/- 1mm.
●Adjust the height of the caster wheel to correct
the lateral inclination of the chassis. To do this,
undo the locking screw (3, Fig. MP-3300-007) and
adjust the height via the setscrew (1).
●Raise the test load approx. 300 mm.
●Attach a lowering plumb to the back of the fork
carriage.
●Prepare a paper rectangle: 50 mm long and 20
mm wide. Mark out the middle of the rectangle.
●Wait until the plumb has finished oscillating and
stick the previously prepared paper rectangle
onto the ground below the plumb. The centre
should lie underneath the tip of the plumb. The
long side of the rectangle (50 mm) should be
perpendicular to the truck’s longitudinal axis.
●Now extend the mast as far as the stop and then
lower it a few millimetres. It is important that the
mast is not tensioned at the limit positions.
●Check the position of the lowering plumb. The
plumb should not now be pointing outside the
rectangle.
●If the plumb is pointing outside the rectangle in
the lateral direction, the lateral mast inclination
must be compensated using shims 813875-001/-
002. The shims are positioned between the base
of the outer mast and the truck base (RH or LH)
and screwed to the rear panel of the battery.

LUBRICATION AND ADJUSTMENT
●If the plumb is pointing outside the rectangle in
the longitudinal direction, either the drive and
caster wheels or the load rollers are heavily worn.
In this case, check the wheels and rollers for
wear and replace any worn wheels and rollers.
Now repeat the lateral inclination setting and the
vertical plumb test.

Hydraulic Reservoir Capacity
The hydraulic reservoir has a capacity of 5.4 litres up to
the max. oil le vel mark. The marking on the hydraulic reservoir serves to indicate the maximum capacity. When
checking the hydr aulic oil lev el, mak e sure that the cylinders are fully retracted and that the entire hydraulic system is fully bled.
Only start the truck once the reservoir has been filled
with the approved hydraulic oil up to the maximum level.
For the correct grade, ref er to the lubricant table in Chapter 1.
The hydraulic oil is filled up to the marking on the hydraulic reservoir. The oil le vel should not de viate by more
than +/-3 mm from this level.

WARNING
De-pressurise all components before
carrying out maintenance work on the
hydraulic system.
High pressure hydraulic oil can cause
serious injuries.
Whenever a high pressure fluid enters
the skin it must be treated as an emergency, even if the skin initially shows no
reaction.
Physical effects may take time to set in.
Secure all connections before re-apply-
ing system pressure. Keep hands and
body away from any ports as high pressure hydraulic oil can emerge.

HYDRAULICS
Hydraulic system
Function
Lifting (see diagram)
If the “Raise” switch is pressed down on the control handle, the pump motor is energised and starts to drive the
pump. The pump initially draws oil from the reservoir via
the suction filter, directing it through the internal check
valve and the proportional valve which opens briefly, and
back to the oil reservoir. While the propor tional valve is
fully closed, the operating pressure builds up on the lift
cylinder (soft lift). A relief valve in the circuit keeps the
pressure to the maximum permissible limit.
If one of the two “Lower” switches (LOS1 or LOS2) is
pressed down on the control handle, the shutoff valve
opens. At the same time the proportional valve opens
according to whether LOS1 or LOS2 has switched fully
or partially. The hydraulic oil can now flow from the
cylinder(s) via the flow restrictor back to the oil reservoir.
If the proportional valve is partially open, lowering is slow.
If the proportional valve is fully open, lowering is fast.
De-pressurise all components before
carrying out maintenance work on the
hydraulic system. High pressure hydraulic oil can cause serious injuries.
Whenever a high pressure fluid enters
the skin it must be treated as an emergency, even if the skin initially shows no
reaction.
Physical effects may take time to set in.
Secure all connections before re-apply-
ing system pressure. Keep hands and
body away from any ports as high pressure hydraulic oil can emerge.
Use absorbent paper to trace leaks,
never use your hands!
General Rules for Hydraulic Lines and Connections
●Apply pressurised air to all hoses and lines
before assembling them, to remove any loose
particles. Bent steel or plastic lines will be permanently damaged. These must be replaced even if
the damage is not externally visible.
●Any hose which bends during operation in its
normal assembly position must also be replaced.
Drift Test
Whenever work has been performed on hydraulic components a drift test must be carried out to ensure that
certain system components are working correctly. The
procedure for doing this can be f ound in Chapter 8 under
“Drift T est”.
Proportional function:
Whenever maintenance work has been perf ormed on the
hydraulic system.
Ensure that the load can start smoothly when the lift motor
is switched on and that the load can also brake smoothly
when lowering is switched off (subjective test).
The HCM (hydraulic control module) ma y have to be calibrated (see Electrics chapter).
REMOVAL
WARNING
De-pressurise all components before
carrying out maintenance work on the
hydraulic system.
High pressure hydraulic oil can cause
serious injuries.
Whenever a high pressure fluid enters
the skin it must be treated as an emergency, even if the skin initially shows no
reaction.
Physical effects may take time to set in.
●All hoses and lines must have sufficient clearance from other surfaces or edges that could
result in wear or cuts or where the hoses or lines
could get caught.
●All connections must be tight and without leaks.
Bleeding the Hydraulic System
Whenever work has been performed on hydraulic components, the hydraulic system must be flushed and b led.
The procedure for doing this can be found in Chapter 8
under “Cylinder Bleeding and Flushing”.

After replacing the pump:
●Use clean, filtered hydraulic oil (at least 10
micron) to replenish the reservoir.
●Never run the pump without oil.
●Star t the installed pump unladen (pressure side
open) and leave it to pump hydraulic fluid for
max. 20 seconds. This will ensure the pump is
bled and that there is sufficient lubrication. Close
the pressure side again as soon as the oil
emerges without bubbles. Bleed the entire system (see Chapter 8, Cylinder Bleeding and
Flushing).
●If the oil is still foaming after approx. 20 seconds,
the system must be checked (see “Hydraulic
System Troubleshooting Table” on following
page).

Replacing the relief valve
●Remove the locking mechanism (4) and unscrew
the relief valve (3),
●Remove the O ring and the strainer from the
valve seat if they are still in there.
●Apply a thin coat of hydraulic oil to the new O ring
and place it in the valve seat with the strainer.
●Apply hydraulic oil to the relief valve, insert it into
the valve seat and tighten. Tap in the new locking
mechanism.
●Refit the hydraulic unit and adjust the relief valve.
Relief valve test and setting
The relief valve protects the hydraulic system and the
lifting mechanism from overloading.
HYDRAULICS
Repeat the test. Repeat the setting until the relief
●
valve opens within the tolerance range.
WARNING
Do not let the pump unit run unless it is
fixed to the chassis.
The amount of torque will twist the unit.
This can result in short circuits and
damage.

Electrical Components
DANGER
Jack up the truck before carrying out
repair work or troubleshooting the electrical system.
Traction Pod (POT, FS, RS)
The travel switches are activated via the thumbswitches
on the control handle. The traction pod comprises a s witch
(FS) for forward travel, a switch (RS) for reverse travel,
and a potentiometer (POT) which governs the travel
speed. For cold store versions the potentiometer is
heated.
Fast / Slow Travel Switch (HSS)
The fast / slow travel switch (HSS) is activated via a rotary switch (rabbit / turtle symbol) on the control handle.
The switch signal to the traction controller is used to
change between the high and slow speed ranges.
The switch is connected in series to the limit switch (LMS).
Safety Reverse Switch (SAS)
The safety rev erse switch (SAS) is activated via the s witch
cap at the top of the control handle: the traction controller immediately changes from forward to reverse travel
when the SAS is activated. The signal for normal travel
to the traction controller is simultaneously interrupted.
Depending on the traction controller setting the truck either travels for a given time, or provided the switch is
pressed, travels in reverse.
Brake Switch (BRS)
The brake switch (BRS) is immediately belo w the control
handle knuckle. As soon as the control handle reaches
the upper or lower braking zone (see Fig. M1476) the
brake switch is activ ated. The traction controller interrupts
the power supply to the traction motor (TM) and the brak e
(BR). The brake magnet releases the anchor disk which
in turn, spring powered, brakes the truck.
Override Switch (ORS)
The override switch (ORS) is immediately belo w the control handle knuckle. As soon as the control handle enters
the brake override zone (see Fig. M1476) the override
switch (ORS) sends a signal to the traction controller with
the resulting slow travel option (by pressing the traction
pod). This provides better shunt operation in restricted
conditions.

ELECTRICS
Raise / Lower Switches (RAS, LOS)
The raise (RAS) and lower (LOS1, LOS2) switches are
activated via rocker switches in the control handle. The
rocker switches act on switches assembled on the hydraulic circuit board of the control handle. The switches
are electrically locked in pairs so that they cannot both
be pressed at the same time.
The raise (RAS) switch activ ates the pump contactor (P)
which is controlled by the hydraulic control module (HCM):
The pump starts.
The lower (LOS) switch applies voltage to the solenoid
(SV) via the hydraulic control module (HCM). The solenoid opens.
Limit Switch (LMS)
On reaching a preset height, approx. 0.5m + the free lift
range, the limit switch (LMS) interrupts a signal to the
traction controller. The switch signal to the traction controller is used to change between the high and slow speed
ranges. The switch is connected in series to the Fast/
Slow Travel (HSS) switch.
Thermal Switch (THS)
This switch is an electronic thermostat for cold store
trucks. It is located on the main circuit board of the control handle and switches the heaters on when the temperature falls below 0°C.
Thermal switch (THS2)
This thermal switch is located in the pump motor. When
the pump motor temperature reaches 170°C, it disconnects the pump.
After cooling down to 140 °C +/- 15 °C it switches the
pump back on.
Hydraulic Control Module (HCM)
Controls the lift contactor P and the valves SVCL & PV
as a function of the raise/lower switches RAS /LOS1/
LOS2. A curve is internally stored.
Warning: Make sure you order the correct spare part to
avoid damaging system components.
Horn Switch (HNS)
A buzzer sounds when the horn button is pressed.
Key Switch (KYS)
The key switch directs the battery supply to the traction
controller and the battery discharge indicator (BDI).
Emergency Disconnect (BD)
Pulling the battery connector on the red knob at the top
of the truck completely disconnects the power supply to
the truck.
Fuses (FU)
The entire truck circuit is protected by fuses FU1 & FU2,
the control circuit by fuse FU3. Cold store trucks
have a fuse FU4 for control handle heating.
●FU1 for the traction circuit and the control lines.
●FU2 for the pump circuit.
●FU3 control circuit and options.
Unigage (BDI)
Contains an adjustable battery discharge indicator with
a specific algorithm, an hourmeter and a lift cutout system.
For a detailed description of its operation and adjustment,
refer to the appropriate chapter. Standard with some
models, otherwise optional.
Integrated Charger
Intelligent charger which disconnects the truck’s control
circuit when connected to the mains. (See electrical diagrams)
Plug Holder (PC)

SEM0 T raction Controller
DANGER
The truck must be jacked up prior to
carrying out repair work or troubleshooting the electrical system.
General
●When the key switch has been turned off, the
filter capacitors in the controller remain charged
for a few minutes longer. When you work on the
controller at this time, first isolate the controller
from the battery (disconnect the batter y). Then
discharge the capacitors by shorting the positive
and negative leads of the power part with each
other over a resistor (10 - 100 Ohm, min. 5 W) for
a few seconds.
Functional Characteristics
Speed control
Infinitely variable speed control in both directions, programmable via the handset.
Reduced speed ranges
There are two travel ranges with reduced speed available. Slow travel (via a rotary switch HSS integrated in
the control handle grip) and the brake override zone (depending on the control handle position, activated via a
microswitch ORS integrated within the control handle).
M1478
The programmable SEM 0 impulse controller provides
effective control of the truck’s travel characteristics.
The truck is powered by an SEM motor (Separate Excited Motor). With this type of motor there are two variables for controlling output: field current and armature
voltage.
Precautionary Measures
●Do not connect the controller to any battery that
differs from the voltage indicated on the controller
(24 - 26 volts DC). Increasing the battery voltage
could damage the MOSFETs; while a lower
voltage supply would fail to energise the system.
●Only operate the controller with special traction
batteries. Do not connect it to rectifiers or the
mains network.
●When star ting to use the truck, jack it up to
prevent it from moving without the driver in the
event of possible wiring errors.
In addition, slow travel can be activated and fast travel
deactivated by pressing the mast switch.
Downhill speed control
When the truck travels downhill, the controller monitors
the motor armature speed, comparing it with the travel
signal prescribed by the traction potentiometer. If the prescribed speed is exceeded, the truck automatically brakes
electrically with energy recovery.
Regenerative braking
There are three ways of regenerative braking:
●Release braking (resetting the accelerator to
neutral)
●Inversion braking (setting the accelerator to the
opposite direction)
●Braking through speed restriction on inclines: The
controller constantly governs the motor speed in
accordance with the nominal value prescribed by
the accelerator. If the nominal value is exceeded,
the truck automatically brakes.

ELECTRICS
Anti Roll Down Function
This function prevents the truck from rolling down an incline without the driver. When the key switch is switched
on, the controller monitors the motor speed. If it detects
a rotational movement without a travel command being
issued, the truck automatically brakes.
If the truck moves of its own accord on an incline, this
ensures that it automatically brakes to a halt after a short
time. When the truck is stationary the brake force is removed so that the truck can mov e again, and again braking is activated. If the brake is not applied, the truck will
therefore move only very slowly down a slope.
Hourmeter
An hourmeter integrated within the traction controller can
be optionally set with the help of the programmer to “KEY
ON” (hourmeter activated when ke y switch is on) or “R UNNING” (hourmeter activated only when truck is tra velling).
Self-Diagnostic System
The traction controller self-diagnostic system lists the five
most recent error messages. These error messages can
be read with the programmer . In addition to the error , the
error frequency, the respective number of service hours
and the traction controller temperature at the time of the
error are logged and displayed.
A red LED on the traction controller also indicates the
most recent error via a flashing code. The display is deleted when the controller is switched off and on again
and if the error was only temporary.
Monitored Circuits
Safety Mechanisms
Incorrect polarity
A main contactor controlled by the logic system separates the traction controller from the battery and thereby
protects the power part from incorrect polarity.
Wiring Errors
All outputs are protected against wiring errors. The outputs for the main contactor and the magnetic brake can
be charged to max. 3 amps and are fitted with an overload and short circuit protection.
T emperature pr otection
When the power part temperature exceeds 80°C, the
maximum current is restricted in proportion to the rise in
temperature. At 90°C the traction controller automatically
cuts out.
If the temperature drops below -10° the maximum current is reduced in proportion to the ongoing batter y discharge.
Start sequence
A specific order must be follow ed for starting up the truck.
Otherwise the main contact will not be activated and the
truck will not operate.
Protection rating
The traction controller is protected against contamination and spray water (IP 54 protection rating).
The following functions are monitored b y the traction controller microprocessor, depending on the oper ating mode:
●When the truck is switched on: Control logic
(hardware) and program functions (software),
field current, VMN, contactor drivers, power up
sequence, travel and lift switch output signals.
●Truck on standby (key switch on): VMN, field
current, contactor drivers.
●During operation: control logic (hardware) and
program functions (software), VMN, field current,
contactors.
Maintenance of the SEM0 traction controller is restricted
to external cleaning and checking the torques of the nuts
securing the power cable connecting bolts.
You should also take this opportunity to check the errors
listed with the help of the programmer.
WARNING
The SEM 0 traction controller operates at
high currents. Particular safety measures
are therefore required when handling the
controller.
-Only use specially trained personnel.
-Use non-fatigue goggles.
-Do not wear loose clothing.
-Do not wear jewelry.
-Only use insulated tools.
●Disconnect the battery (=EMERGENCY DISCONNECT).
●Jack up the truck.
●Discharge the traction controller capacitors by
connecting the BATT- and BATT+ connections
over a resistance of approx. 10 Ohm, 5 W.
●Remove the power cable: label the cable if
necessary. Secure the bottom nuts (2, Fig.
MS519) with a fork wrench. Undo the top nut (1,
Fig. MS519).
Note:
The bottom nut secures the connecting bolt to the power
part circuit board and the plastic housing. If this nuts is
under-tightened (torque less than 6 Nm), high transition
resistances will occur between the circuit board and the
bolt. The heat generated can damage the controller and
melt the cover near the connecting bolts.
If the bolt is over-tightened (torque greater than 7 Nm),
this can result in physical damage to the power part circuit board and the housing.
●Check the torque for the locknuts (2, Fig.
MS519) of the connecting bolt with a torquewrench: It should be 6 - 7 Nm.
Important: An incorrect torque can damage
the circuit board and the housing of the
controller.
●Remove any dirt and corrosion from the contact
surfaces.
●Wipe down the traction controller with a clean,
damp cloth.
●When everything is dry, re-connect the power
cables. To do this, secure the bottom nut (2, Fig.
MS519) with a fork wrench and tighten only the
top nut (1, Fig. MS519). Fit the control lines.
●For cold store versions: Apply a coat of Dow
Corning® 4 Compound, par t no. 053051-006, to
the control line connectors.

Replacing the SEM0 Traction
Controller
WARNING
Make sure you are operating the truck
with the correct controller.
The use of SEM0 traction controllers with
different part numbers can change the
characteristics and result in accidents.
When fitting a new SEM0 traction controller in a truck
you must select the right truck model through the appropriate selection in the configuration menu.
If you have changed and stored the standard configura-
tion with the programmer, the stored parameters will be
loaded the next time the controller is started.
●Prepare to remove the traction controller as
previously described in the Maintenance section.
●Remove the 4 mounting screws and remove the
traction controller.
●Check the contact pattern left behind by the
controller back plate on the heat dissipation
sheet. The controller must lie fully flat on the heat
dissipation sheet.If there are large areas with no
contact to the controller, replace the heat dissipation sheet to avoid thermal problems.
●Clean the contact surface of the traction controller on the truck chassis with a lint-free cloth and
use an industry-standard silicon removal agent to
remove the residue of the heat conducting paste.
●Apply a thin and even layer of Dow Corning
heat conducting paste, part no. 053051-008 to
the floorboard (= contact surface of the traction
controller on the truck chassis).

Adjustment
1.If required, change the options for the safety
reverse switch and the internal ser vice hour meter
of the controller. The standard setting is contained in Table 11-GB. If you have made changes,
switch the truck off and on again. This will activate the changes.
2.Measure the battery voltage directly at the
battery and adjust the reading measured and
displayed by the traction controller (see CONFIG
MENU section).
3.Using the TEST menu check the wiring and
operation of the switches (see TEST menu
section).
4.Re-calibrate the traction potentiometer (see
“Traction pod – calibrate potentiometer, PROGRAM V ACC menu).

●Secure the traction controller again with the 4
screws.
●If necessary clean the contact surfaces and refit
the power cable (you must follow the instruc-
tions in the Maintenance section on the
previous page) and refit the connectors for the
control lines.
●For cold store versions: Apply a coat of Dow
Corning® 4 Compound, part no. 053051-006, to
WF3000 09/2005 • Printed in Germany
5.Test the traction pod starting point at creep
speed. The drive wheel should start when the
travel switch closes. If necessary increase the
value accordingly. Repeat the test for both travel
directions (see PARAMETER CHANGE menu
section).
6.Jack down the truck and bring it to a secure
area where you can perform test runs without
endangering other people.

7.Set the maximum speed to slow travel if necessary (CUTBACK SPEED). Repeat the test with
maximum load (see PARAMETER CHANGE
menu).
8.Set the maximum speed to the special range if
necessary (OVERRIDE). Repeat the test with
maximum load (see PARAMETER CHANGE
menu).
9.Set the maximum speed “Forward” (MAX SPEED
FORWARD) and “Reverse” (MAX SPEED BACK).
Warning: The maximum permissible speed is
6 km/h unladen.
Set the maximum speed to mast stage slow
travel if necessary (CUTBACK 2). Repeat the test
with maximum load.
10. Set the release brake characteristics:
Set the unladen truck to maximum speed and
release the travel switch. Repeat the test with the
maximum permissible load.
If necessary adjust the braking pattern (RELEASE BRAKING).
11. Set the braking pattern for changing direction:
Set the unladen truck to approx. 25% of maximum speed and move the travel switch in the
opposite direction until it reaches the stop.
Set the braking pattern so that the delay sets in
gently (INVERSION BRAKING).
Now repeat the test at maximum permissible
speed. Adjust the setting until the delay sets in
gently in both speed ranges and the effect is
ideal. Preference should be given to the best
setting for when the truck is unladen.
Repeat the process with the maximum permissible load.
12. Adjust, where necessary, the time taken to
change direction. To do this change the AUX
TIME DELAY parameter.
Both parameters, INVERSION BRAKING and
AUX TIME DELAY affect the “feel” of the delay
when changing direction.
Important: Po wer down the truck before disconnecting the programmer. Now reconnect the LEDs.

In the ALARMS menu error messages generated and
stored during operation can be called up and processed.
PROGRAM V A CC
In the PROGRAM VACC menu item the traction
potentiometer is calibrated. The traction controller reads
and records the potentiometer’s minimum and maxim um
output voltage.
CONFIG
The Configuration menu is used to set the operation of
the hourmeter and the safety reverse s witch. In addition,
the "Adjustments" sub-menu allows for calibration between the battery voltage measured by the controller and
the actual battery voltage.
The SX parameter in the SET MODEL submenu is designed to select the truck, for the SX3000 it must be set
to ON, for the ST3000 it must be set to OFF, for the
WP2300 it should always be OFF.
The BATTERY CHECK parameter must be set OFF with
these systems, otherwise with the ON setting and incorrect BATTERY ADJUST setting, it will result in travel f ailure.
