Section 2 General Instructions

2.1INTRODUCTION

Appropriate service methods and proper repair procedures are essential for safe, reliable operation of the forklift and safety of the individual doing the work. This Maintenance Manual provides general directions for accomplishing service and repair work with tested, effective techniques. Following them will assure reliability.

There are many variations in procedures, techniques, tools, and parts for servicing vehicles, as well as work skills. This Manual cannot possibly anticipate all such variations and provide advice or cautions for each one. Accordingly, anyone who intends to depart from the instructions in this Manual must first consider his safety and the vehicle integrity.

2.2CLEANING

Clean the exterior of all parts before repairing. Dirt and abrasive dust reduce the efficient work life of the part and lead to costly replacement.

Use cleaning fluids and solvents which are suitable for cleaning parts and do not risk the safety of the user. Certain types of fluids damage rubber parts and/or cause skin irritation.

The following precautions must be observed to insure hydraulic cleanliness:

1.Flush hose and tube assemblies with a solvent compatible with hose assemblies. Blow out excess solvent with shop air.

2.Cap hydraulic fittings and protect threads until installation.

3.Cap hoses and tube assemblies until installation

4.Flush hydraulic reservoir, fuel tank, and gear housing with a suitable solvent to remove paint, metal chips, welding shot, etc.

5.Protect system components from airborne contaminants. Plug all cylinder, valve, reservoir, tank, and pump openings until installation.

6.Use clean, filtered oil when filling the system.

7.System cleanliness level must be a minimum ISO code 18/15 particle ratio count.

2.3REPLACEMENT

Replace O-rings, seals, and gaskets whenever they are disturbed. Never mix new and old seals or O-rings regardless of condition. Always lubricate new seals and O-rings with hydraulic oil before installation.

When replacing parts, use the correct tool.

2.4HOSES AND TUBES

2.4.1Inspection

1.If the hose end fittings are damaged, always replace hoses and tubes . Damaged, dented, crushed, or leaking hose fittings restrict oil flow and the operation of the parts being served. Fittings showing signs of movement from their original position have failed and must be replaced.

2.Be sure hoses are in good condition. If in doubt, replace them.

3.Replace hoses if the following occur:

chafed outer cover

concealed corrosion of wire reinforcement.

ballooning (replace immediately !)

kinked, crushed, stretched, or deformed.

2.4.2 Installation

1.When installing a new hose, loosely connect each end and make sure the hose takes up the designed position before tightening the connection. Clamps should be tightened sufficiently to hold the hose without crushing and to prevent chafing.

2.If a hose is replaced on a moving part, be sure it does not foul by moving the part through its complete range of travel.

3.Be sure any hose which has been installed is not kinked or twisted.

4.Free moving, unsupported hoses must never touch each other or related work surfaces. This causes chafing reducing hose life.

Model 6036 S/N 9B0499 and Before

2-2

2.5BEARINGS

2.5.1Removal

1.Bearings should never be removed unless absolutely necessary. Always use the recommended puller to reduce the risk of bearing or related component damage.

2.When bearings or bushings are removed, check that the bearing is free from discoloration, nicks, scuffing, and signs of overheating. If in doubt, replace the bearing or bushing.

2.5.2 Cleaning

Bearings acceptable for service should be cleaned in a suitable solvent and immersed in clean lubricating oil until needed.

2.5.3 Installation

1.Be sure bearings are installed with care during servicing, maintenance and repair.

2.Install bearings in either of the following two ways:

press fit on rotating parts such as shafts and gears, and

push fit into static locations such as reduction gear housings.

3.When possible, always install the bearing into the rotating part first.

4.Use the proper tools or a press when installing a bearing or bushing.

5.In the absence of the proper tools or press, heat the bearings and/or casing in hot oil to assist in the installation.

2.6PRESSURE TESTING AND ADJUSTMENT

Prior to pressure testing or adjustment, be sure all hoses are in good condition and all fittings tight.

Use a pressure gauge with a range that is large enough to measuring the specified pressure.

Comply with the correct procedure to prevent damage to the system or the equipment and to eliminate the possibility of injury.

Section 2 General Instructions

Be sure that hydraulic oil is at operating temperature (80 to 120 °F) before adjusting relief valves, pressure reducing valve or sequence valve. If necessary, operate the machine to raise the oil temperature. The oil temperature can be checked by placing a hand against the side or the bottom of the reservoir. If your hand feels too hot to keep against the reservoir, the oil temperature is acceptable.

3.1BOOM ASSEMBLY

The boom assembly, Fig. 3.1, consists of inner, intermediate, and outer booms. The intermediate boom slides in the outer boom and the inner boom slides in the intermediate boom. As the boom extend/retract cylinder extends or retracts the intermediate boom, a pair of extend chains and one retract chain moves the inner boom in the same direction.

IMPORTANT: The inner, intermediate and outer boom replacement instructions in paragraphs 3.1.1 through 3.1.3 must be completed in sequence. Replacement of two or more booms as a unit requires special considerations that are not covered in these instructions.

Adjustment is accomplished using extend chain adjustment locknuts, Fig. 3.14.

a. Chain Locknut Functions

Loosen extend chain locknuts to extend the inner boom and increase extend chain sag.

Tighten outer boom retract chain locknut to retract the inner boom and decrease extend chain sag.

b. Adjusting Procedure

1.Raise the boom to a horizontal (level) position. Fully extend the boom, then retract it 2" which is 1" per section (51 mm which is 25,5 mm per section).

2.Measure sag in the extend boom chains between the bottom of the chains and the top of the inner boom at their closest point, Fig. 3.12. Acceptable boom extend chain sag is between 3/4 and 1-3/4" (19 and 45 mm). If the measurement is less than 3/4" (19 mm), adjust the boom chains as described in the following steps.

3.1.7 Chain Tension Adjustment

1.Retract the boom completely to check the position of the inner boom. If the distance between the front edges of the intermediate and inner booms is between 1-1/2 and 2-1/2" (38 and 64 mm) and the extend chain is no closer than 3/4" (19 mm) from the inner boom, proceed no further, the boom chains are adjusted correctly.

2.If the distance between the front edges of the intermediate and inner booms is 2" or more but less than 2-1/2" (51 mm or more but less than 63 mm):

Section 3. Boom

(a)Tighten the locknut, Fig. 3.15, on the bottom of the outer boom. This retracts the inner boom and takes up the sag in the extend chains.

(b)Cycle the boom in and out; then, with the boom horizontal (level), fully extend the boom and retract it 2" which is 1" per section (51 mm which is 25,5 mm per section).

(c)Measure the chain sag, Fig. 3.12. Acceptable boom extend chain sag is between 3/4 and 1-3/4" (19 and 45 mm). If the chain sag is less than 3/4" (19 mm) repeat steps

(a) through (c).

3.If the distance measured in Step 1 is less than 2" but greater than 1-1/2" (less than 51 mm but greater than 38 mm):

(a)Remove the rear cover from the outer boom and adjust the top extend boom chains.

(b)Tighten the locknuts, Fig. 3.14, for each chain. Be sure each locknut is tightened equally so that chain maintains the same tension. Equal chain tension can be checked by observing the position of the yoke on the outer boom, Fig. 3.13. The front of the yoke should be parallel with the front edge of the boom.

(c)Cycle the boom in and out; then, with the boom horizontal (level), fully extend the boom and retract it 2" which is 1" per section (51 mm which is 25,5 mm per section).

(d)Measure the chain sag. Acceptable boom chain sag is between 3/4 and 1-3/4" (19 and 45 mm). If chain sag is less than 3/4" (19 mm), repeat steps (a) through (d).

(e)Replace the rear cover of the outer boom.

3.1.8 Wear Pad Replacement

After the first 50 hours of operation or when severe wear is suspected

There are 26 wear pads (Fig's 3.3, 3.5, 3.6 and 3.8) between the outer, intermediate, and inner booms. Five are attached to the inner boom, thirteen to the intermediate boom, and eight to the outer. Four additional wear pads may be used in severe twist applications.

The wear pads and wear pads with spacers are shimmed to maintain a gap between the wear pads and the booms of 0.07 to 0.13" (1,8 to 3,3 mm).

Section 3. Boom

IMPORTANT: Inspect the pads as follows:

Replace wear pads that are less than 0.5" (13

mm)thick.

The ends of wear pad attaching capscrews must not protrude beyond the wear pad insert; the ends must range from flush to 0.19" (5 mm) recessed in the wear pad insert; refer to Fig. 3.3.

When you install a wear pad on one side (including top or bottom) of boom, replace the corresponding wear pad on the other side of the boom. Usually shimming will remain the same when installing new wear pads on corresponding sides of the boom.

Apply Loctite® 242 to all wear pad screws and torque them to 28 to 34 lb-ft (38 to 46 N m).

a. Inner Boom Wear Pads (Fig. 3.3)

1.All inner boom wear pads can be removed by working through the rear boom cover opening.

2.The bottom pad may be removed by first removing the top pads. Use a wooden wedge between the inner and intermediate boom to provide clearance for removing the bottom pad.

3.Inspect the wear pads removed as described in the preceding IMPORTANT notice.

b.Intermediate Boom Wear Pads (Fig. 3.5 and 3.6)

1.The rear wear pads can be removed by working through the rear boom cover opening.

2.The rear bottom pad may be removed by first removing the top pads, by using a wooden wedge between the inner and intermediate boom, thereby providing clearance for removing the bottom pad.

3.Front pads can be removed at the front of the boom.

4.The front bottom pad may be removed by first removing the top pads. Lower the gooseneck end of the inner boom to the ground until the intermediate boom raises up to provide clearance for removing the bottom pad.

5.Inspect the wear pads removed as described in the preceding IMPORTANT notice.

c. Outer Boom Wear Pads (Fig. 3.9)

1.All outer wear pads can be removed working at the front of the boom.

2.The front bottom pad may be removed by first removing the top pads. Lower the gooseneck end of the inner boom to the ground until the

3-12

intermediate boom raises up, thereby providing clearance for removing the bottom pad.

3.Inspect the wear pads removed as described in the preceding IMPORTANT notice.

3.1.9 Hose Tensioning

100 Hour Intervals

Adjust grille tilt cylinder hose or auxiliary hydraulic hose tension whenever the boom is disassembled, a hose is changed, or whenever proper hose adjustment is in question. Check hose tension as part of general maintenance every 100 hours.

IMPORTANT: Before you begin tensioning the hoses make sure that the hoses are not twisted within the boom. Keep the hose manufacturers marking in line as a guide.

1.Park forklift on level surface, engage park lock and fully retract and level the boom.

2.Remove the rear boom cover, Fig. 3.1.

3.If the vehicle has auxilliary hydraulics there will be four hoses in hose clamps, Fig. 3.16b, with the auxilliary hose clamps stacked on top of the grille tilt cylinder hose clamps, Fig. 3.16a. Remove the capscrews and hose clamps, holding upper hoses in place, Fig. 3.16b, and move aside to gain access to the lower capscrews and hose clamps.
