• Small, high-pressure pin hole leaks are extremely
dangerous. A jet of high-pressure oil can pierce
the skin and eyes. Always wear safety glasses
and thick gloves. Use a piece of cardboard or a
sheet of wood to check for oil leakage.
• If you are hit by a jet of high-pressure oil, consult
a doctor immediately for medical attention.
Precautions with the battery
When repairing the electrical system or performing
electrical welding, remove the negative (-) terminal of
the battery to stop the flow of current.
Waste materials

general values. The actual values may differ
depending on the type of tire and the condition under
which they are used. For details, please consult the
tire manufacturer.
When tires become hot, a flammable gas is produced
and may ignite. It is particularly dangerous if the tires
become overheated while the tires are pressurized. If
the gas generated inside the tire ignites, the internal
pressure will suddenly rise and the tire will explode,
resulting in danger to personnel in the area.
Explosions differ from punctures or tire bursts
because the destructive force is extremely large.
Therefore, the following operations are strictly
prohibited when the tire is pressurized:
• Welding the rim
• Welding near the wheel or tire
• Smoking or creating open flames
If the proper procedure for performing maintenance or
replacement of the wheel or tire is not used, the
wheel or tire may burst and cause serious injury or
damage. When performing such maintenance,
consult your authorized regional Komatsu distributor
or the tire manufacturer.

• Disconnections in wiring
If the wiring is held and the connectors are
pulled apart, or components are lifted with a
crane with the wiring still connected, or a heavy
object hits the wiring, the crimping of the con-
nector may separate, or the soldering may be
damaged, or the wiring may be broken.

• Connecting connectors
a. Check that there is no oil, dirt, or water stuck
to the connector pins (mating portion). Check
that there is no deformation, defective con-
tact, corrosion, or damage to the connector
pins. Check that there is no damage or
breakage to the outside of the connector.
• If there is any oil, water, or dirt stuck to the
connector, wipe it off with a dry cloth. If
any water has got inside the connector,
warm the inside of the wiring with a dryer,
but be careful not to make it too hot as
this will cause short circuits.
• If there is any damage or breakage,
replace the connector.
b. Fix the connector securely. Align the position
of the connector correctly, and then insert it
securely. For connectors with the lock stop-
per, push in the connector until the stopper
clicks into position.
• Correct any protrusion of the boot and
any misalignment of the wiring harness.
• For connectors fitted with boots, correct
any protrusion of the boot. In addition, if
the wiring harness is misaligned, or the
clamp is out of position, adjust it to its cor-
rect position.
• If the connector cannot be corrected eas-
ily, remove the clamp and adjust the posi-
tion.
• If the connector clamp has been
removed, be sure to return it to its original
position. Check also that there are no
loose clamps.

4. Handling controllers
The controllers contain a microcomputer and
electronic control circuits. These control all of
the electronic circuits on the machine, so be
extremely careful when handling the controllers.
• Do not place objects on top of the controllers.
• Cover the controller connectors with tape or a
vinyl bag. Never touch the connector contacts
with your hand.
• During rainy weather, do not leave a controller
in a place where it is exposed to rain.
• Do not place a controller on oil, water, or soil, or
in any hot place, even for a short time. Place it
on a suitable dry stand.
• When carrying out arc welding on the body,
disconnect all wiring harness connectors that
are connected to the controllers. Fit an arc
welding ground close to the welding point.

After any piping or equipment is removed, the
openings should be sealed with caps, tapes, or
vinyl bags to prevent any dirt or dust from enter-
ing. If the opening is left open or is blocked with
a rag, there is danger of dirt entering or of the
surrounding area being made dirty by leaking oil
so never do this. Do not simply drain oil out onto
the ground, but collect it and ask the customer
to dispose of it, or take it back with you for dis-
posal.

6. Flushing operations
After disassemby and assembly, or changing
the oil, use flushing oil to remove the contami-
nants, sludge, and old oil from the hydraulic cir-
cuit. Normally, flushing is carried out twice:
primary flushing is carried out with flushing oil,
and secondary flushing is carried out with the
specified hydraulic oil.
7. Cleaning operations
After repairing the hydraulic equipment (pump,
control valve, etc.) or when running the
machine, carry out oil cleaning to remove the
sludge or contaminants in the hydraulic oil cir-
cuit. The oil cleaning equipment is used to
remove the ultra fine particles (about 3 microns)
that the filter built in the hydraulic equipment
cannot remove, so it is an extremely effective
device.

Refer to Figure 10-7.
There are only a few differences between steering
left and steering right. When the operator turns the
steering wheel right, oil is supplied out ports “R” and
“LS” of the steering control unit.
The oil enters the flow amplifier assembly at port “R”
and shifts the directional valve the opposite direction.
The oil flows through the amplifier valve in exactly the
same way. The combined oil from the amplifier valve
passes through the center area “Q” of the directional
valve to port “CR”, where it goes to the opposite ends
of the steering cylinders to turn the wheels to the
right.
The returning oil comes back through port “CL” to go
to the tank. The “LS” oil operates exactly the same as
steering left.

Hoist pump
The hoist pump is a tandem, gear type pump driven
by a driveshaft on the end of the traction alternator.
The pump has a total output of 931 L/m (246 gpm) at
1,900 rpm and 18 960 kPa (2,750 psi).
A smaller piston type, pressure compensated pump,
rated at 250 l/m (66 gpm) @ 1,900 rpm, is coupled to
the hoist pump. It supplies oil to the steering system
and brake apply system.
Hoist pressure is limited to 18 960 kPa (2,750 psi) by
internal relief valves located in the hoist control valve
inlet sections.

Hold operation
Refer to Figure 10-7.
The pilot valve spool is positioned to allow the pilot
supply oil entering pilot supply port (12) to return to
the hydraulic tank through head end work port (10).
Pilot supply pressure in pilot supply ports (12) then
decreases to no pressure, allowing flow control valve
(2) to open and route the incoming pump oil through
brake cooling circuit port (23) and back to the
hydraulic tank.
Both raise pilot port (14) and down pilot port (15) in
the pilot valve are closed by the pilot valve spool. In
this condition, pressure is equalized on each end of
each rod end spool (7) and head end spool (8),
allowing the springs to center the spools and close all
ports to trap the oil in hoist cylinders (6) and hold the
body in its current position.

Float operation
Refer to Figure 10-9.
When the operator releases the hoist control lever as
the body travels down, the hoist pilot valve spool
returns to the FLOAT position. In this position, all
ports (10), (12), (14), and (15) are common with each
other. Therefore, the pilot supply oil is returning to the
hydraulic tank with no pressure buildup, thus allowing
flow control valve (2) to remain open to allow the
pump oil to flow through brake cooling circuit port
(23) and eventually return to the hydraulic tank.
With no blockage of either raise pilot port (14) or
down pilot port (15) in the pilot valve, there is no
pressure on the top of either main spool. The oil
returning from the head end of hoist cylinders (6)
builds pressure on the bottom of head end spool (8)
exactly like in POWER DOWN, allowing the returning
oil to transfer to low pressure passage (20). The back
pressure in the low pressure passage, created by
primary low pressure relief valve (22), causes
pressure under rod end spool (7) and moves the
spool upward. This connects the low pressure
passage to the rod end of the hoist cylinders.
The 179 kPa (26 psi) in low pressure passage (20)
causes oil to flow to the rod end of hoist cylinders (6)
to keep them full of oil as they retract. When the body
reaches the frame and there is no more oil flow from
the cylinders, the main spools center themselves and
close the cylinder ports and the high and low
pressure passages.

Body-up switch
Body-up switch (3, Figure 10-6) is located inside the
right frame rail near the front of the body. It must be
adjusted to specifications to ensure that the proper
electrical signal is obtained when the body is raised
or lowered. The body-up switch is designed to
prevent propulsion in REVERSE when the dump
body is not resting on the frame rails. The switch also
prevents forward propulsion with the body up unless
the override button is depressed and held.
When the body is resting on the frame, actuator arm
(4) causes the electrical contacts in the magnetically
operated switch to close. When the body is raised,
the arm moves away from the switch, opening the
contacts. The electrical signal is sent to the control
system and the body-up relay.
The switch must be properly adjusted at all times.
Improper adjustment or loose mounting bolts may
cause false signals or damage to the switch
assembly.

Engine control
This software function generates the engine speed
command. The engine electronic fuel control is
responsible for maintaining that speed.
The desired engine speed is determined according to
the system state:
Propel state: The engine speed is commanded such
that the engine supplies only as much horsepower as
is required to achieve the desired torque.
All other states: The engine speed is a direct
function of the accelerator pedal. Additional
constraints on the engine speed command are as
follows:
• If the truck is in NEUTRAL, the commanded
engine speed at full scale accelerator pedal will
be the engine's high idle. If the truck is not in
NEUTRAL, the maximum commanded engine
speed will be the engine's rated horsepower rpm.
This allows faster hoisting of the truck bed, if
desired.
• During retard state the engine speed command
will not be increased to support the DC link when
retard is being ramped out at low truck speeds.
However, engine speed may be increased if
needed to support the DC link during normal
retard when wheel slides are occurring.
