blocked up, the truck will tip backwards due
to the heavy counterweight. Both upright and
counterweight must be removed before
attempting to raise the truck for transaxle
removal. The back of the truck must be sup-
ported by blocking under the steer axle to
prevent movement.

The reverse is also true. If the counterweight


is removed while the truck is up on blocks,
the weight of the upright and transaxle will
cause the truck to tip on the front blocks and
fall forward.
Put an equal amount of blocks under each side of the truck
to provide a level working position.

It is important to maintain a lift truck in a clean condition.
Do not allow dirt, dust, lint or other contaminants to accu-
mulate on the truck. Keep the truck free from leaking oil
and grease. Wipe up all oil or fuel spills. Keep the controls
and floorboards clean, dry, and safe. A clean truck makes
it easier to see leakage, loose, missing, or damaged parts,
and will help prevent fires. A clean truck will run cooler.
The environment in which a lift truck operates determines
how often and to what extent cleaning is necessary. For
example, trucks operating in manufacturing plants which
have a high level of dirt, dust or lint, (e.g. cotton fibers,
paper dust, etc.) in the air or on the floor or ground,
require more frequent cleaning. The radiator, especially,
may require daily air cleaning to ensure correct cooling. If
air pressure does not remove heavy deposits of grease, oil,
etc., it may be necessary to use steam or liquid spray
cleaner.
If the maximum fork height cannot be reached, this
indicates there is low oil level in the hydraulic sump
or severe binding within the upright.
4. Push forward on the lift control lever. Watch the
upright as it lowers. If you suspect a problem with
lifting or lowering speeds, refer to Group 34 to diag-
nose the problem.

Special Notes Section
Note 1 = Item should be checked yearly, replace as needed
Note 2 = PSI requires the use of coolant meeting GM specification GM6277M. When used, this coolant change interval is 5,000 hours or 5 years (whichever
occurs first). Changing of coolant types (typically indicated by color) and mixing of coolants is not allowed as this can result in a loss of coolant protection
during the engine life. Consult the OEM for the correct replacement interval if you use coolant other than GM6277M
Note 3 = Severe duty applications are units that receive high load, full throttle operation for the majority of its operational life.
Note 4 = 5,000 hour or 5 years whichever occurs first
Note 5 = Oil life is highly dependent on oil quality, operating enviroment, and engine use.

note *: Part to be sealed with a form-in-place gasket (FIPG)

FORM-IN-PLACE GASKET (FIPG)

This engine has several areas where the form-in-place gasket (FIPG) is used for sealing. To ensure
that the FIPG fully serves its purpose, it is necessary to observe some precautions when applying it.
Bead size, continuity and location are of paramount importance. Too thin a bead could cause leaks.
Too thick a bead, on the other hand, could be squeezed out of location, causing blocking or narrowing
of fluid passages. To prevent leaks or blocking of passages, therefore, it is absolutely necessary to
apply the FIPG evenly without a break, while observing the correct bead size.
FIPG hardens as it reacts with the moisture in the atmospheric air, and it is usually used for sealing
metallic flange areas.

REMOVAL OF FIPG SEALED PARTS

Parts sealed with a FIPG can be easily removed without need for the use of a special method. In some
cases, however, the FIPG in joints may have to be broken by tapping parts with a mallet or similar tool.
You can also tap a flat, thin gasket scraper into the joint to break the FIPG, taking extreme care not to
damage the mating surfaces. The oil pan remover (800397) is available as a special tool for removing
the oil pan. The tool, however, must not be

CLEANING FIPG APPLICATION SURFACE

Thoroughly remove all substances deposited on the FIPG application surface, using a gasket scraper
or wire brush. Make sure that the FIPG application surface is flat and smooth. Also make sure that the
surface is free from oils, greases and foreign substances. Do not fail to remove old FIPG that may
remain in the fastener fitting holes.

General Information 00-1-9


Group 00 (MMC-PSI) LPG ENGINE

APPLICATION OF FIPG

Applied FIPG bead should be of the specified size and free of any break. FIPG can be wiped away
unless it has completely hardened. Install the mating parts in position while the FIPG is still wet (in
less than 15 minutes after application). Do not allow FIPG to spread beyond the sealing areas during
installation. Avoid operating the engine or letting oils or water come in contact with the sealed area
before a time sufficient for FIPG to harden (approximately one hour) has passed. FIPG application
method may vary from location to location. Follow the instruction for each particular case described
later in this manual.

GASOLINE MULTI POINT FUEL INJECTON


The primary components of the Gasoline Multi Point Fuel Injection (MPFI) fuel system are the gasoline fuel tank,
electric fuel pump, fuel pressure and temperature sensor manifold, fuel filter and fuel rail.

GASOLINE FUEL STORAGE TANK

The gasoline fuel storage tank location may very on equipment applications. The fuel tank may be integrated into the
chassis frame or may be a stand alone vessel mounted on the equipment. For precise location for the equipment
application refer to the OEMs vehicle manual.

GASOLINE FUEL PUMP

The Gasoline is stored as a liquid in the fuel tank and in drawn into the fuel system by a 12 volt electric fuel pump.
Depending on the vehicle application the fuel pump may be mounted in the fuel tank or as a stand alone component.
In either case the fuel pump will receive a signal from the ECM at Key On to prime the fuel system for approximately
2 seconds prior to start. Priming of the fuel system provides for a quicker start, when the engine begins to crank.
Consult the OEM for the location of the fuel pump.

GASOLINE PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE SENSOR MANIFOLD

This engine is equipped with a fuel injector rail that does not have a pressure regulator or a return circuit to the fuel
tank. Fuel pressure for this engine is regulated by the engine’s ECM. The ECM receives fuel pressure and
temperature feedback from the gasoline fuel sensor manifold and uses this information to control the ground side of
the fuel pump. Fuel pressure is regulated by the ECM pulse width modulating (PWM) the fuel pump. The fuel
pressure and temperature sensor manifold has a return or “bleed” circuit that connects back to the equipment fuel
tank. This circuit is used to bleed off any vapor that develops in the line and returns a small amount of fuel to the tank.
The fuel comes from the fuel tank and passes through the fuel pump. Fuel exits the fuel pump, passes through the
filter and then enters the fuel pressure and temperature manifold assembly. Fuel flows through the feed circuit and is
delivered to the fuel injector rail. Fuel that enters the bleed circuits through the by-pass valve in the manifold is
returned to the fuel tank.

FUEL FILTER
After the fuel is drawn into the fuel pump, the fuel flows through the gasoline fuel filter. The fuel filter will trap small
particles. The fuel passes through the filter to remove debris which prevents the fuel pressure and temperature
manifold and fuel injectors from becoming damaged. Maintenance of the fuel filter is required as indicated in the
Recommended Maintenance Schedule. A more frequent replacement of the filter may be required if the equipment
operates in a dusty or dirty environment.

Gasoline Fuel System 12


Gr (MMC-PSI) LPG ENGINE

FUEL INJECTOR RAIL

The fuel flows from the fuel pressure and temperature manifold assembly to the fuel rails where the fuel is delivered
to the fuel injectors.

FUEL INJECTOR

The fuel supply is maintained on the top of the injector from


the injector rail. The injector is fed a “pulse” ground signal
through the wire harness which causes the injector to open.
During regular operating conditions the ECM controls the
opening and duration of opening of the injector. During lower
RPM operation the injector signals or “pulses” are less
frequent then when the engine is operating at higher RPMs.
The certified engine has been calibrated to deliver the precise
amount of fuel for optimum performance and emission
control.

The allowable resistance on the injectors is 12.0 ± 0.6 ohms

Tests Page

Provides diagnostic information voltages and sensor outputs and includes diagnostic engine tools
such as spark and injector kill controls. Please note that not all features are available for all
applications. The disabled item menus are grayed out or rendered inoperative.

SPARK KILL

The spark kill mode allows the technician to disable the ignition on individual cylinders. If the Spark
Kill diagnostic mode is selected with the engine running below 1000 rpm, the minimum throttle
command will lock into the position it was in when the test mode was entered. If the Spark System
Test mode is selected with the engine running above 1000 rpm, the throttle will continue to operate
normally. Disabling Ignition Outputs to disable the ignition system for an individual cylinder, use the
mouse to highlight the “Spark Kill” button and select the desired coil. The spark output can be
re-enabled by using the mouse to highlight the “Spark Kill” button and selecting “Normal.” If the
engine is running below 1000 rpm, the spark output will stay disabled for 15 seconds and then re-set.
If the engine is running above 1000 rpm, the spark output will stay disabled for 5 seconds and then
re-set. This test mode has a timeout of 10 minutes. Record the rpm drop related to each spark
output disabled. The spark outputs are arranged in the order which the engine fires, not by cylinder
number.

INJECTOR KILL

The Injector Kill mode is used to disable individual fuel injectors. If the Injector Kill mode is
selected with the engine running below 1000 rpm, the minimum throttle command will lock into the
position it was in when the test mode was entered. If the Injector Kill mode is selected with the
engine running above 1000 rpm, the throttle will continue to operate normally. To disable an
injector, use the mouse to select the desired injector. The word “Normal” will change to the
Injector you have selected. The injector driver can be re-enabled by selecting again. If the
engine is running below 1000 rpm, the injector driver will stay disabled for 15 seconds and then

Diagnostic Service Tool (DST) 00-15-13


Group 00 (MMC-PSI) LPG ENGINE

re-set. If the engine is running above 1000 rpm, the injector driver will stay disabled for 5 seconds
and then re-set. Record the change in rpm while each driver is disabled.

DBW TEST MODE

The DBW (Drive by Wire) test mode allows the technician to control the throttle directly with the
foot pedal or throttle input and is used during the diagnostic routines specified for FPP and TPS for
systems that use DBW control. FPP position displays the current position of the foot pedal as a
percentage. FPP volts display the voltage which the ECM is reading from the FPP sensor. TPS
Command displays the commanded throttle position expressed as a percentage, which is being
sent to the throttle. TPS Position is the actual percent of throttle opening being sent to the ECM
from the throttle. TPS volts display the actual TPS signal voltage the ECM is receiving from the
throttle. To select this test mode the engine must be off and the key must be in the ON position.

EXTERNAL POWER TEST

The external power test manually activates relays (relay power, fuel pump, and drive-by wire
power) controlled by the ECM while the engine is in the “Stopped” or “Running” states. Reverts to
normal operation if “Automatic” state is selected or ignition voltage is cycled from high to low.

Faults Page

Stores DTC codes that may have occurred in the past (Historic Faults) or current set codes (Active
Faults). Includes useful system voltages and sensor readings used while working with the fuel and
emission trouble shooting charts. Shows power derate mode status. To erase a historic DTC
code, double click on the code with the left mouse button. Then choose to “Clear All Faults.”

MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (MIL)

The Fuel system has built-in diagnostics for system trouble shooting. The system has a dash
mounted malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) that provides indications of engine or fuel system related
problem. Most engine control system related problems that affect emissions or driveability of the
vehicle will set a (DTC) diagnostic trouble code and illuminate the MIL.

The MIL serves as notification to the operator of a problem related to the emission control system so
the driver can arrange for service as soon as possible. It will also display DTCs that have been
stored due to a system malfunction.

The MIL should illuminate when the key is in the ON position and the engine is not running. This
feature verifies that the lamp is in proper working order. If the MIL does not illuminate with the
vehicle key ON/engine OFF, repair it as soon as possible. Once the engine is in start or run mode,
the MIL should turn off. If the lamp remains on while the engine is in the start or run mode a
diagnostic trouble code may be set.

The MIL will be turned OFF after three (3) consecutive run cycles or by clearing the active code with
the Diagnostic Scan Tool (DST).

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC)

Diagnostic Trouble Codes are set when the ECM (Electronic Control Module) runs a diagnostic self
test and the test fails. When a DTC is set, the ECM will illuminate the MIL on the instrument panel
and also save the DTC in memory. The ECM will continue to run the self test. If the system
continues to fail the test, the lamp will stay illuminated and the DTC is stored as an active DTC. If the
self test runs and passes, the DTC will be stored as historic DTC. All DTCs are stored as historic
faults until they are cleared. Most DTCs will automatically clear from memory if the DTC does not
reset within 50 to 100 consecutive engine run cycles.

While a Diagnostic Trouble Code is current for a sensor, the ECM may assign a default “limp home”
value and use that value in its control algorithms. All of the system diagnostic self-tests run
continuously during normal vehicle operation.

The Diagnostic Trouble Codes can be read by using either the MIL lamp or a laptop computer.
Diagnostic Trouble Codes can be cleared from memory with a laptop computer, or by turning the
ignition key to the OFF position and removing the ECM power fuse or battery cable for at least 15
seconds.

If more than one DTC is detected, start the diagnostic repair with the lowest DTC number set.
Diagnose each problem to correction unless directed to do otherwise by the diagnostic chart. The
DTCs are numbered in order of importance. Both DTC 112 and DTC122 pertain to the oxygen
sensor, so it is possible that a repair that corrects DTC 112 may also correct the problem causing the
DTC 122.

Diagnostic test charts contained in this manual refer to the DST to be connected and in the “System
Data Mode.” This simply means that the DST is connected and communicating with the PC. In
some instances the chart will call out a special test mode. An example of this would be instructions
for the DST to be connected and in the DBW (drive by wire) mode. Always be sure to follow the
special instructions to avoid a false diagnosis of fuel system components.

DLC COMMUNICATION ERROR

The ECM 5 volt reference circuit powers the diagnostic link cable. In the event that the 5 volt
reference signal is open or shorted to ground, you will not be able to connect to the system. If you
are unable to connect, follow the quick checks listed below:

Be sure you are using the correct password and latest software for the system you are connecting to.

Check the ECM system power and ground circuits. Refer to DTC 562 for the power schematic.
Also check for +12 volts switched power at ECM pin 45 with the ignition key ON.

Check for power at the DLC connector for + 5 volts between pin 1 (BLK /LT GRN) and pin 2 (LT GRN
RED) with the ignition key in the ON position.

You may still be able to retrieve a code using the blink code function if none of the above
recommendations prove useful. In the event of a 5 volt reference signal malfunction, DTC 642 or
DTC 643 should set. If you find one of these codes using the blink code function, follow the DTC
diagnostic chart recommendations for that specific DTC.

Diagnostic Service Tool (DST) 00-15-20


Group 00 (MMC-PSI) LPG ENGINE

BLINK CODE FUNCTION

Although the DST is considered a required tool to access the DTC codes, codes may be retrieved
without a laptop computer using the blink code function. To enable this function follow the steps
below:

Jump pins 1 and 4 at the DLC connector (see illustration below)

Turn the ignition key to the on position

The system will now enter the self diagnostic blink code mode. Be ready with pen and paper to
write down any codes that may be stored.

The ECM will flash the MIL indicator with a pause between represented numbers that represent
DTC codes. The sequence starts with code 1654. Code 1654 confirms the system has
entered the blink code mode. The ECM will flash code 1654 (3) times before displaying the
actual DTC code that may be set.

Example:

One short blink (pause) six short blinks (pause) five short blinks (pause) four short
blinks.

If no DTC codes are found, the ECM will continue to flash 1654 only. This means no stored
DTC codes were found.

If one of the numbers in the DTC code is zero (0), no flash will occur to represent the zero
value it will be represented as a short pause.

Diagram 1

When using the DST program to clear a DTC, always select the “Clear All Faults” function to
immediately turn the MIL OFF after a successful repair (as shown in diagram 1 above).

INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS

Intermittent fuel system problems can prove to be the most challenging to repair. It is most
important to remember when looking to find the cause of these problems, to operate the system in
the condition when and where the problem occurs. An example of this would be, if the DST
showed a lean fuel mixture at full load, one of the first things to look at would be the fuel pressure.
The fuel pressure would need to be monitored while the machine is operating at full load, not at idle
because the leaning effect does not occur at idle. Electrical problems should be treated the same
way. One excellent tool for finding intermittent electrical problems is the DST plot/log function.
Set up the plot for the code that sets. An example of this would be if an intermittent IAT code set,
tag the IAT voltage and watch the plot. While watching the plot, agitate the electrical wire
connection at the sensor and ECM connector. The resolution of the plot screen is such that you
will be able to see any unstable voltages that you would otherwise not see with a standard DVOM.

Caution should be used when pressure washing the under hood of any electrical system. Avoid
direct pressure spray on the system electrical connectors. They are splash proof, but if water is
sprayed directly at the connector moisture can become trapped behind the connector seal and
cause serious system problems.

Extra care must be taken when probing electrical pins and terminals. Do not bend or spread these

Low current and voltage levels are used in the


system, so it is important that the best possible
bond at all wire splices be made by soldering the
splices.
3. Untwist conductors, strip insulation as
CONNECTORS AND TERMINALS necessary.

Use care when probing a connector or replacing


terminals in them to prevent shorting opposite
terminals and damage certain components.
Always use jumper wires between connectors, for
circuit checking. Do not probe through the 4. Splice wire using splice clips and rosin

Open circuits are often difficult to locate by sight


due to dirt, oxidation, or terminal misalignment.
Merely wiggling a connector on a sensor, or in the
wiring harness, may correct the open circuit
condition. This should always be considered,
when an open circuit, or failed sensor is indicated.
Intermittent problems may also be caused by
oxidized or loose connections.

Before making a connector repair, be certain of


the type of connector. Weather-Pack and
Compact Three connectors look similar, but are
serviced differently.

terminal locking tab (2).
3. Push the wire and terminal out through the
connector. If reusing the terminal, reshape
the locking tab (2).

WEATHER-PACK

A Weather-Pack connector can be identified by a


rubber seal, at the rear of the connector. The
connector is used in the engine compartment to
protect against moisture and dirt that may oxidize
and/or corrode the terminals. Given the low
Micropack Connector voltage and current levels found in the electronic
system, this protection is necessary to ensure a

6. Close secondary lock hinge.

1. Open secondary lock hinge on connector. Use tool J M28742, or BT8234-A or equivalent to
remove the pin and sleeve terminals. If the
removal is attempted with an ordinary pick, there
is a good chance that the terminal will be bent, or
deformed. Unlike standard blade type terminals,
these terminals cannot be straightened once they
are bent.
2. Remove terminal using tool.
Verify that the connectors are properly seated
and all of the sealing rings in place, when
connecting leads. The hinge type flap provides a
backup, or secondary locking feature for the
connector. They are used to improve the
connector reliability by retaining the terminals, if
the small terminal lock tabs are not positioned
3. Cut wire immediately behind cable seal properly.

Weather-Pack connections cannot be replaced


with standard connections. Additional instructions
are provided with Weather-Pack connector and
terminal packages.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) Operation

How does my MIL work?

The emissions control system utilizes a MIL to warn the operator or technician of a possible
issue with the engine or emissions control system. The system will keep the MIL illuminated for
the entire key cycle in which the trouble code was set. It will keep the MIL illuminated for three
additional engine run cycles under the following two circumstances: (1) The fault caused the
engine to shut down or (2) the fault is related to the exhaust gas oxygen (EGO) sensors. This
function is called MIL persistence.

How does MIL persistence work?

In the event the DTC is related to either an engine shutdown fault OR an oxygen sensor fault the
following statement applies: If the vehicle is not serviced by a technician and the condition
causing the MIL illumination (DTC) no longer exists, the MIL will remain illuminated for the 3
additional start cycles. The MIL will go out on the 4 th start cycle if the condition does not
reoccur.

In the event the DTC is not related to an engine shut down or an oxygen sensor fault and the
condition causing the MIL illumination (DTC) no longer exists, the MIL will go out at the next run
cycle.

If the condition is serviced by a technician and the DTC is cleared using a Diagnostic Service
Tool (DST), the MIL will go out immediately.

Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) are permanently retained in the historic DTC section until
cleared with a DST or the auto clear requirements are met. The auto clear feature will clear out
historic faults after 40 run cycles.

What are the requirements for a run cycle?

A run cycle is when the engine speed is above the “run speed” set point for 1.5 seconds or
longer. The “run speed” is the transition point when the ECM recognizes the engine is going
from the cranking parameters to the engine running parameters. The run speed is typically set
at 450 rpm.

OBD System Check/MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp)

Circuit Description

The fuel system is equipped with OBD (On-Board Diagnostics). The system has a dash
mounted MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp). The MIL serves as notification of an engine or fuel
system related problem. The MIL also has the ability to flash DTC codes in what is referred to
as the blink code mode. It will display DTCs that have been stored due to a possible system
malfunction. The following DTC charts in this manual will instruct the technician to perform the
OBD system check. This simply means to verify the operation of the MIL. The lamp should
illuminate when the key is in the ON position, and the engine is not running. This feature
verifies that the lamp is in proper working order. If the lamp does not illuminate with the vehicle
key ON and engine OFF, repair it as soon as possible. Once the engine is in start or run mode,
the lamp should go off. If the lamp stays on while the engine is in the start or run mode, a
current diagnostic trouble code may be set or a problem may exist with the MIL electrical
wiring. The electrical schematic above shows the MIL power source supplied to the lamp. The
ECM completes the circuit to ground to turn the lamp ON.

DTC 11 Intake cam / distributor position error (SPN 520800:FMI 7)

Conditions for setting the DTC

Camshaft Position sensor


Check Condition- Engine cranking
Fault Condition- Engine RPM’s greater than 500 and difference between the desired CAM
position and actual CAM position is greater than 30 CAD
MIL Command-ON

Circuit Description

The CAM position sensor is utilized to distinguish the cylinder event (compression or exhaust), thus
making the cylinder identification available to the ECM. The camshaft position sensor is a 3 wire
hall effect sensor. One wire for current feed (5v), one for ground (CAM -), and one for the output
signal (CAM +). The sensor must have a good 5v reference and ground to operate properly. The
CAM position and CAM Position desired value is displayed on the “TESTS” page in the GCP display
software. This code will set when these two values are more than 30 CAD BTDC apart and the
RPM is greater than 500.

CAM Position is not adjustable in this engine. The sensor is located on front of the timing cover
(top portion) and reads a reluctor wheel off the camshaft.

Conditions for setting the DTC

Fuel Pressure is less than 40 psia


Fault must be active for 2.0 seconds to activate DTC
MIL light on during fault
Forced idle is enabled

Circuit Description

This engine is equipped with a fuel injector rail that does not have a pressure regulator or a return circuit to
the fuel tank. Fuel pressure for this engine is regulated by the engine’s ECM. The ECM receives fuel
pressure and temperature feedback from the gasoline fuel sensor manifold and uses this information to
control the ground side of the fuel pump. Fuel pressure is regulated by the ECM pulse width modulating
(PWM) the fuel pump. The fuel pressure and temperature sensor manifold has a return or “bleed” circuit
that connects back to the equipment fuel tank. This circuit is used to bleed off any vapor that develops in the
line and returns a small amount of fuel to the tank. The fuel comes from the fuel tank and passes through the
fuel pump. Fuel exits the fuel pump, passes through the filter and then enters the fuel pressure and
temperature manifold assembly. Fuel flows through the feed circuit and is delivered to the fuel injector rail.
Fuel that enters the bleed circuits through the by-pass valve in the manifold is returned to the fuel tank.

Circuit Description
The ECT (Engine Coolant Temperature) sensor is a temperature sensitive resistor located in the engine coolant
sensor that is located in the coolant passage. The ECT is used for engine airflow calculation, fuel enrichment, and
ignition timing control and to enable certain other temperature dependant operations. This code set is designed to
help prevent engine damage from overheating. The ECM provides a voltage divider circuit so when the sensor
reading is cool the sensor reads higher voltage, and lower when warm. This fault will set when the coolant exceeds
215 degrees F. for more than 5 seconds. Power derate level two will be enforced during this fault limiting the maximum
throttle position to 20%. There is a 15 second run time delay before the ECM will enable this fault, meaning the fault
will not be active for 15 seconds which the engine is running. NOTE: ECT higher than expected faults temperatures
are sometimes changed at the OEM’s request. The specific temperature is calibration specific. The values shown

DTC 121-TPS 1 Lower Than TPS 2 (SPN 51:FMI 1)

Conditions for Setting the DTC

Throttle Position Sensor 1 & 2


Check Condition-Key ON
Fault Condition-TPS 1 20% lower than TPS 2
MIL-ON for remainder of key on cycle
Engine shutdown

Circuit description

Dual throttle Position Sensors are used within the throttle that use variable resistors to
determine signal voltage based on throttle plate position. TPS 1 will read low voltage when
closed and TPS 2 will read high voltage when closed. The TPS 1 and TPS 2 percentages are
calculated from these voltages. Although the voltages are different, the calculated values for the
throttle position percentages should be very close to the same. The TPS values are used by the
ECM to determine if the throttle is opening as commanded. This fault will set if TPS 1 is 20% (or
more) lower than TPS 2. At this point the throttle is considered to be out of specification, or there
is a problem with the TPS signal circuit. The MIL command is on and the engine will shutdown.

Fault Condition-Intake Air Temperature greater than 210 degrees F. with engine

Circuit Description

The TMAP is a combined IAT (Intake Air Temperature) and MAP (Manifold Absolute
Pressure) sensor. A temperature sensitive resistor is used in the TMAP located in the
intake manifold of the engine. It is used to monitor incoming air temperature, and the
output in conjunction with other sensors is used to determine the airflow to the engine. The
ECM provides a voltage divider circuit so that when the air is cool, the signal reads a
higher voltage, and lower when warm. This fault will set if the intake air temperature is
greater than 210 degrees F. with engine speed greater than 600 rpm. The MIL light
command is on during this active fault and the engine will shutdown.

Diagnostic Aid

This fault will set when inlet air is much hotter than normal. The most common cause of
high inlet air temperature is a problem with the inlet air system. Ensure that the air inlet is
not obstructed, modified or damaged.
Inspect the air inlet system for cracks or breaks that may allow unwanted under hood air
in to the air inlet system

The EGO 1 sensor is used to determine if the fuel flow to the engine is correct by measuring the
oxygen content in the exhaust gas. The ECM uses this information to correct the fuel flow with the
Closed Loop multiplier and the Adaptive multiplier. This fault will set if EGO 1 is cold,

manifold.
Vacuum Leaks Large vacuum leaks and crankcase leaks can cause a lean exhaust condition at
especially at light load.
Fuel Pressure Low fuel pressure, faulty fuel pressure sensor, faulty pump, or contaminated fuel filter
can cause fuel the system to run lean
Exhaust Leaks If there is an exhaust leak, outside air can be pulled into the exhaust and past the 02
sensor causing a false lean condition.
Fuel Quality Contaminated or spoiled fuel can cause the fuel system to be lean.
Ground Problem ECM grounds must be clean, tight and in the proper location.

Circuit Description

The ECT (Engine Coolant Temperature) sensor is a temperature sensitive resistor located in the engine coolant
sensor that is located in the coolant passage. The ECT is used for engine airflow calculation, fuel enrichment, and
ignition timing control and to enable certain other temperature dependant operations. This code set is designed to
help prevent engine damage from overheating. The ECM provides a voltage divider circuit so when the sensor
reading is cool the sensor reads higher voltage, and lower when warm. This fault will set when the coolant exceeds
225degrees F. for more than 1 seconds. Engine shutdown will occur if this code occurs. NOTE: ECT higher than
expected faults temperatures are sometimes changed at the OEM’s request. The specific temperature is
calibration specific. The values shown above are the standard generic values.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

Throttle Position Sensor 1 & 2


Check Condition-Key ON
Fault Condition-TPS 1 20% higher than TPS2
MIL-ON for remainder of key on cycle

Circuit Description

Dual throttle Position Sensors are used within the throttle that use variable resistors to
determine signal voltage based on throttle plate position. TPS 1 will read lower voltage
when closed and TPS 2 will read higher voltage when closed. The TPS 1 and TPS 2
percentages are calculated from these voltages. Although the voltages are different, the
calculated values for the throttle position percentages should be very close to the same.
The TPS values are used by the ECM to determine if the throttle is opening as
commanded. The TPS is not serviceable and in the event of a failure the electronic throttle
assembly must be replaced. This fault will set if TPS 1 is 20% (or more) higher than TPS 2.
At this point the throttle is considered to be out of specification, or there is a problem with
the TPS signal circuit. The MIL command is ON and the engine will shutdown.

Injector is in the Off State


Low side voltage is less than 4.0 volts
Battery voltage is above 9.0 volts
MIL Light turned on
Closed Loop is disabled while this fault is active
Adaptive Learn is disabled while this fault is active.

Circuit Description

The fuel injectors turn on when the GCP provides a ground circuit to the injector. Battery positive is
constantly provided through the ignition fuse and the Pink / Tan wire. Each Injector has a ground
side driver assigned to it inside the GCP. The driver number does not match up with the mating
cylinder number in each case. The driver is assigned in numerical order according to the engine
firing order (1-3-4-2). The ECM is monitoring the low side voltage internally in the ECM. This

The fuel injectors turn on when the GCP provides a ground circuit to the injector. Battery positive is
constantly provided through the ignition fuse and the Pink / Tan wire. Each Injector has a ground side driver
assigned to it inside the GCP. The driver number does not match up with the mating cylinder number in each
case. The driver is assigned in numerical order according to the engine firing order (1-3-4-2). The ECM is
monitoring the low side voltage internally in the ECM. This code will set if it sees a low voltage on the low
side during an “injector off” state. This indicates the injector is open or there is a short to ground in the circuit.

The technician should check the wiring and the injector resistance. If the resistance is out of specification or you get an
infinite reading on the DVOM you should replace the injector. If there is a short to ground in the wiring circuit you
should repair the faulty circuit in accordance with the recommended wire repair instructions provided in this manual.

• Catalyst Function
• Check condition- Engine running
• Fault condition- EGO 1 signal = EGO 2 signal for 100 updates
• MIL- On during active fault and for 1 second after active fault
• Adaptive- Disabled during active fault

Circuit Description

The ECM uses EGO 1 and EGO 2 sensor signals to diagnose problems with the catalyst muffler. When the
signals for EGO 1 & EGO 2 are similar it may indicate a problem with the catalyst.

Diagnostic Aids

Always diagnose any other troubles, stored along with DTC 420 first. Check for and eliminate any exhaust
leaks prior to replacing catalyst muffler. Look for exhaust leaks at the catalyst muffler inlet and tail pipes.
Clear this trouble code after repairing exhaust leaks, and recheck for code. If there are no exhaust leaks
or other exhaust related issues there may be a problem internally with the catalyst muffler.

Circuit Description

The Oil Pressure Sender is used to communicate the oil pressure condition to the ECM. Engine
damage can occur if the engine is operated with low oil pressure. The ECM sends a 5v signal to the
oil pressure sender. The sender will report a signal back to the ECM on the signal wire depending
on the pressure that is applied on its diaphragm. The voltage is linear in comparison to the
pressure applied (see chart below). The MIL command is ON and the engine will go into a forced
idle condition in the event of this fault to help prevent possible engine damage.

Conditions for setting the DTC

MIL check
Check Condition-Key ON engine OFF
Fault Condition-ECM MIL circuit open
MIL Command-ON

Circuit Description

The fuel system is equipped with OBD (On-Board Diagnostics). The system has a dash
mounted MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp). The MIL serves as notification of an emissions
related problem. The MIL also has the ability to flash DTC codes in what is referred to as the
blink code mode. It will display DTCs that have been stored due to a possible system
malfunction. The following DTC charts in this manual will instruct the technician to perform the
OBD system check. This simply means to verify the operation of the MIL. The lamp should
illuminate when the key is in the ON position, and the engine is not running. This feature verifies
that the lamp is in proper working order. If the lamp does not illuminate with the vehicle key ON
and engine OFF, repair it as soon as possible. Once the engine is in start or run mode, the lamp
should go off. If the lamp stays on while the engine is in the start or run mode, a current
diagnostic trouble code may be set or a problem may exist with the MIL electrical wiring. The
electrical schematic above shows the MIL power source supplied to the lamp. The ECM
completes the circuit to ground to turn the lamp ON. This fault will set if the ECM MIL control
circuit is open.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

Foot pedal position sensor 1 and 2


Check Condition-Key ON
Fault Condition-FPP1 and FPP 2 redundancy lost
MIL-ON
Force idle
Low rev limit

Circuit Description

The foot pedal position sensor uses variable resistors to determine signal voltage based on foot
pedal position. Although the voltage outputs are different, the calculated throttle position values
should be very close to the same. This fault will set if FPP 1 or FPP 2 positions are 20% greater
or 20% less than the expected throttle position target. The MIL command is ON. Forced idle and
low rev limit are in effect during this fault limiting full power output.

Diagnostic Aid

It is very likely that in the event this code sets, other codes will set along with it. Always diagnose
and repair codes starting with the lowest numerical value first. It is possible that by correcting
the lower code sets first the problem will be corrected. FPP sensors are OEM specific and vary
in configuration. The exact wire color and pin numbers for the FPP must be verified in the OEM
chassis wiring schematic. The FPP sensor used in this system provides two sensors in one
packaged assembly. FPP1 and FPP 2 are not serviceable individually, and in the event of a
failure the complete FPP assembly must be replaced.

MIL-ON

Circuit description

The EGO sensor is used to determine if the fuel flow to the engine is correct by measuring the oxygen
content in the exhaust gas. The ECM uses this information to correct the fuel flow with the Closed
Loop multiplier and the adaptive multiplier. This fault sets if the Closed Loop multiplier exceeds the
limits of normal operation and cannot correctly modify the fuel flow within its limits.

Diagnostic Aid

Oxygen Sensor Wire Heated Oxygen sensor wires may be mis-routed and contacting the exhaust manifold.
Vacuum Leaks Large vacuum leaks and crankcase leaks can cause a lean exhaust condition at especially at
light load.
Fuel Mixer System can be lean due to faulty EPR (Electronic Pressure Regulator) or faulty fuel mixer.
Fuel Pressure Low fuel pressure, faulty fuel regulator or contaminated fuel filter can cause fuel the system to
run lean
Exhaust Leaks If there is an exhaust leak, outside air can be pulled into the exhaust and past the 02 sensor
causing a false lean condition.
Fuel Quality Contaminated or spoiled fuel can cause the fuel system to be lean.
Ground Problem ECM grounds must be clean, tight and in the proper location.

DTC 1174-EPR Supply Voltage High


(SPN 520260:FMI 3)

Conditions for Setting the DTC

EPR supply voltage


Check condition-Engine running or cranking
MIL-ON during active fault
Fault condition-internal EPR supply voltage too high
Adaptive disabled
Closed loop disabled

Circuit Description

The EPR (Electronic Pressure Regulator) unit measures and controls the amount of fuel that is able to
pass to the fuel mixer. Pressure readings are sent over the CAN to the ECM and in return the ECM
sends back a control signal to the EPR to increase or decrease pressure for precise mixture control.
This code will set if the EPR internal supply voltage is too high.

Diagnostic Aid

This DTC indicates abnormal EPR internal voltages that are not measurable externally. Check the
system charging voltage to be sure this DTC and other over voltage DTCs are not present. Repair the
charging system if it is found to be out of specification for high charge voltage. In the event of multiple
code sets, always start the diagnostic repair with the lowest numerical value DTC first.

DTC 1511 Auxiliary Analog PU 1 High Voltage


(SPN 520216:FMI 3)

Conditions for setting the DTC

Wiring issue between Vehicle Interface Connector 1 (VIC 1) and pin 46 at ECM
Wiring issue between VIC 1 and OEM supplied speed computer
MIL light on during fault
Power Derate 2 enabled

Circuit Description

The AUX PU1 is pulled-up to 5 VDC inside the ECM therefore; if SPDF input becomes an open-circuit into
the ECU the input will remain at 5 VDC. The OEM supplied controller grounds the SPDF circuit when the
vehicle is stopped. As a result, the fault
is configured in the ECU on an AUX PU1 High Voltage state if voltage reached 5.0v for longer than 1
second. This informs the technician that the circuit is open. The technician should verify the wiring is
good from the OEM supplied speed computer to the GCP module. If the wiring is ok, the problem is likely
in the OEM system.

DTC 1554: AUX digital 2 low voltage (SPN 520222: FMI 04)

Engine RPM between 60 rpm and 220 rpm


Voltage at Aux Dig 2 at the ECM (Pin 43) is less than 4 volts for greater than 1 second
Check Condition- Engine cranking

Aux Digital 2 is used to detect when the operator is cranking the engine by monitoring the key
switch “start” position voltage potential. When the operator attempts to start the engine a 12 volt
signal is sent through the customer interface connector “start in” terminal. The circuit carries the
voltage to the S-Terminal of the starter which will begin engine cranking. The circuit has a splice
which also carries the voltage to terminal 43 of the ECM “Aux Dig 2”. When B+ voltage is
present at terminal 43 Aux Dig 2, the ECM knows the engine is cranking. This fault code is used
to detect a circuit malfunction in which the engine is cranking and there is less than 4 volts at
terminal 43 at the ECM.

Circuit Description

The Spectrum Fuel system is equipped with OBD (On-Board Diagnostics). The system has a dash
mounted MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp). The MIL serves as notification of an emissions related
problem. The MIL also has the ability to flash DTC codes in what is referred to as the blink code mode. It
will display DTCs that have been stored due to a possible system malfunction. The following DTC charts
in this manual will instruct the technician to perform the OBD system check. This simply means to verify
the operation of the MIL. The lamp should illuminate when the key is in the ON position, and the engine is
not running. This feature verifies that the lamp is in proper working order. If the lamp does not illuminate
with the vehicle key ON and engine OFF, repair it as soon as possible. Once the engine is in start or run
mode, the lamp should go off. If the lamp stays on while the engine is in the start or run mode, a current
diagnostic trouble code may be set or a problem may exist with the MIL electrical wiring. The electrical
schematic above shows the MIL power source supplied to the lamp. The ECM completes the circuit to
ground to turn the lamp ON. This fault will set if the ECM MIL control is shorted to ground.

Circuit Description

Dual throttle Position Sensors are used within the throttle that use variable resistors to determine signal
voltage based on throttle plate position. TPS 1 will read low voltage when closed and TPS 2 will read
high voltage when closed. The TPS 1 and TPS 2 percentages are calculated from these voltages.
Although the voltages are different, the calculated values for the throttle position percentages should be

Force idle
Low rev limit

Circuit Description

The foot pedal position sensor uses variable resistors to determine signal voltage based on foot pedal
position. Although the voltage outputs are different, the calculated throttle position values should be
very close to the same. This fault will set if FPP 1 is 20% or greater than the FPP 2. The MIL

Diagnostic Aid

FPP sensors are OEM specific and vary in configuration. The exact wire color and pin numbers for the
FPP must be verified in the OEM chassis wiring schematic. The FPP sensor used in this system
provides two sensors in one packaged assembly. FPP1 and FPP 2 are not serviceable individually,

Fault Condition-FPP1 sensor voltage exceeds 4.800 volts
MIL-On during active fault
Low rev limit
Forced idle

Circuit Description

The Foot Pedal Position sensor uses a variable resistor to determine signal voltage based on pedal
position. This fault will set if the FPP 1 voltage exceeds 4.800 volts for longer than 0.5 seconds. If the
voltage exceeds 4.800 volts the FPP is considered to be out of specification. The MIL command is
ON. Forced idle will be in effect during this code set limiting full power output.

Diagnostic Aid

FPP sensors are OEM specific and vary in configuration. The exact wire color and pin numbers for the
FPP connection must be verified in the OEM chassis wiring schematic. The FPP sensor used in this
system provides two sensors in one packaged assembly. FPP1 and FPP 2 are not serviceable
individually, and in the event of a failure the complete foot pedal sensor assembly must be replaced.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

Throttle Position Sensor 1 & 2


Check Condition-Key ON
Fault Condition-TPS 1 20% higher than TPS2
MIL-ON for remainder of key on cycle
Engine shutdown

Circuit Description

Dual throttle Position Sensors are used within the throttle that use variable resistors to
determine signal voltage based on throttle plate position. TPS 1 will read lower voltage
when closed and TPS 2 will read higher voltage when closed. The TPS 1 and TPS 2
percentages are calculated from these voltages. Although the voltages are different, the
calculated values for the throttle position percentages should be very close to the same.
The TPS values are used by the ECM to determine if the throttle is opening as
commanded. The TPS is not serviceable and in the event of a failure the electronic throttle
assembly must be replaced. This fault will set if TPS 1 is 20% (or more) higher than TPS 2.
At this point the throttle is considered to be out of specification, or there is a problem with
the TPS signal circuit. The MIL command is ON and the engine will shutdown.

4. Function
The torque converter is an automatic hydraulic driving device that transfers engine torque through hydraulic pressure.
Power supplied from the torque converter rotates the charging pump. The oil in the oil reservoir is drawn from the trans-
mission by the charging pump. All of the drawing oil is conveyed to the oil filter for filtering foreign substances.
Oil screened through the filter is sent to the control valve.
The main pressure regulator valve builds up the pressure required for the clutch pack and supplies the oil to the solenoid
valve. The oil is supplied to the line of the forward or backward clutches selected by the operation of the solenoid valve to
operate the clutch.
After being used to maintain clutch pressure, the oil that remains flows into the torque converter to allow the converter’s
pressure regulator valve to keep the hydraulic pressure uniform on the flow path inside the converter.
• Pressure of the oil supplied to the torque converter: 4 to 7 kgf/cm¸
• Pressure of the oil discharged from the torque converter: 2 to 4.5 kgf/cm¸ (28.4-64 psi)
The torque converter is continuously supplied with oil throughout its operation: The impeller wheel of the converter rotates
to supply kinetic energy to the oil, which in turn causes the turbine wheel to rotate.
The oil made to flow through the turbine wheel further flows to the blade of the stator wheel, which changes the direction
of oil flow, and then between the impeller wheels to increase torque.
The oil is supplied to the cooler from the converter, and the cooler allows oil flow to the path cooled by air to eliminate heat.
After cooling, the oil lubricates the clutch through the lubricant path of the clutch shaft.
Positioned between the cooler and the lubrication system, the lubrication relief valve returns excessive oil to the oil reser-
voir of the transmission.

3. Inching spool 4. Main relief valve
5. Inching valve pressure check port 6. Forward clutch pressure check port
7. Backward pressure check port 8. Main clutch pressure check port

(2) Functions
The control valve consists of the main relief valve, solenoid valve, modulation valve, and inching valve.
The oil supplied from the pump flows into the main relief valve of the control valve, and the pressure of the oil rises to
10.8-14.9 kgf/cm¸.
The flow direction of the oil with pressure built up to a certain level by the main relief valve is decided by the solenoid
valve, i.e., forward or backward.
The flow direction of the oil is decided by the solenoid valve, and the oil can transfer the power generated from the torque
converter through the flow path between the torque converter housing and the transmission case to the drive axle.
The modulation valve allows streamlined connection for gear shifting.
The valve increases the hydraulic pressure in an incremental manner upon gear shifting and decreases the high gear shifting
speed to absorb impact.
When pressure continuously rises, the modulation valve shuts down the modulation function and relieves the pressure in
order to make the modulation function ready to perform again upon gear shifting.
The inching valve partially relieves the pressure on the clutch to increase the engine rotation rate sufficiently for the lifting
operation of the forklift truck and decreases the traveling speed of the truck.

(2) Functions
The forward and reverse directions of the clutch pack are decided by the solenoid valve of the control valve. Oil is made
to flow by the pump into the clutch pack through the flow path of the transmission at pressure of 9-14.2 kgf/cm¸.
The oil applies pressure to the piston of the clutch pack for coupling the clutch pack.
In such case, the clutch shaft continuously rotates due to the turbine wheel of the torque converter.
The clutch gear is connected to the rotating drum, transferring power generated from the rotation to the output gear that
comes in contact with the clutch gear.

5. Oil level gauge

4) Principle of operation
The drive axle is connected to the output gear of the transmission via the universal joint.
The power transferred by the universal joint is forwarded to the pinion shaft of the drive axle. The pinion shaft transfers
power to the Differential. The power transferred to the differential gear is reduced at the planetary reducer and transferred
to the hub wheel.

SM 1024 21-1-4
Group 21, Drive Axle

2) Principle of operation
The carrier assembly includes the Differential and the parking brake.
The pinion shaft is supported by the taper roller bearing inside the carrier case and the bolts at the end of the pinion shaft.
The power transferred from the universal joint is forwarded to the ring gear assembled on the Differential with bolts.
The power drives the Differential.
The Differential is connected to the axle shaft through the spline, and the power supplied to the Differential is forwarded
to the hub wheel through the axle shaft.
The parking brake is configured with multiple disks as the driving brake system. Pulling the parking lever causes these
disks to come in close contact with each other to play the role of parking brake.

3. Differential

1) Principle of operation
The ring gear is coupled with the right differential case with bolts; the power transferred to the ring gear rotates the Dif-
ferential.
The left and right differential cases are connected to the left and right axle shafts, respectively, with the spline, and power
is supplied to the hub wheel.
If there is a load difference between the left and right hub wheels, and the impact from such difference is relayed to the
drive axle, the differential gear inside the differential drive operates to adjust the ratio of power supplied to the left and
right axle shafts for the safety of the driver.

2-7 Test of capability of hydraulic brake


The procedures below describe how to perform the test of
applying hydraulic power to the brake system.
Operation of a device is recommended for checking oil
leak through the oil seal and the circulation system of the
piston for correct operation.
Stroke between 0.45 and 0.5 mm shall be allowed for cor-
rect assessment:
1. Release air from the brake system while applying
hydraulic power to the pressure injection port. Air
shall be flushed until pump oil flows out of the
breather via the brake. Close the brake valve.
2. Run the piston at least five times at pressure of 60 bar.
Check for any oil leak and inspect the piston for
smooth movement.
3. If oil leaks, disassemble the hub assembly. Determine
the correct cause of oil leak. Check the seal surface for
sharp edge, dent, or burr.
4. Apply pressure of 60 bar to the piston. Pressure shall
not drop below 55 bar after 1 minute.
5. If the pressure drops, disassemble the hub assembly.
Determine the correct cause of oil leak.
Repeat Steps 1) to 5).

! CAUTION
Make sure that the brake is fully released
after operation of the brake.
Never operate the brake in partially released
state. Otherwise, the brake parts may be
damaged.

Section 3

Lubrication and Maintenance

SM 1024 21-3-1
Group 21, Drive Axle

1. General information
Fine metal particulates are generated from the drive axle particularly during trial run. These fine metal particulates accel-
erate the abrasion of other functional parts during oil circulation, reducing the lifecycle of the system.
Therefore, the oil change cycle is very important for the maintenance of the system.

2. Magnetic drain plug


The axle including the planetary device is installed together with the magnetic drain plug. The plug is capable of lifting a
min. of 0.5 kg of low-carbon steel. There is a need to check the magnetic drain plug for fine metal particulates during the
periodic oil change.
If you find large metal foreign substances, you have to overhaul the plug. When you detect common fine metal particulates,
clean and reassemble the plug.

3. Air breather

! CAUTION
The breather shall be protected when cleaning the housing with steam. Otherwise, moisture is introduced
into the housing, contaminating the oil.
The operability of the air breather shall be regularly inspected to minimize the failure of components and
earlier change of oil.

4. Oil level

4-1. Checking and adjusting the oil level


The procedures for the wet disk brake shall be strictly performed.

! WARNINGG
Always wear safety goggles during inspection and service of the truck to protect your eyes from serious
injury.

level within the allowable level. If the oil level is lower than the
bottom limit, pour oil into the oil gauge inlet to keep the level
within the allowable level (Inadequate oil level may cause leak
and overheat).

4-2. Oil change

! WARNINGG
Park the truck on a level ground and apply the parking brake to keep the truck immobile.
Use a prop and the lifting device together to ensure safety. Otherwise, serious injury may occur.

1. Park the truck on a level ground; make sure that the truck is kept immobile.
2. Lift the truck with the lifting device, place the prop under the truck, and remove the drain plug to drain oil.
3. Once oil is completely drained, clean and reassemble the plug.
4. Pour new oil while checking the oil level with the oil level gauge.

Inching is more fully described in Section 1 of Group 6,

Braking Operation
When the operator depresses the brake pedal, or depresses
the inching pedal far enough to operate the brake pedal,
the brake link operates a piston in the brake valve.
The brake valve receives flow from the reservoir. In gen-
eral, the brake valve allows pressure to build in the disc in
proportion to the extent the brake pedal is depressed.
When the operator applies the brakes, the brake valve pis-
ton shifts to provide pressure to the disc for braking. The
amount of pressure is modulated by the position of the
piston.

ing effort, and causes the steering axle to turn the wheels
to the desired position by supplying hydraulic flow to the
steering cylinder.
The steering gear is connected to the bottom of the steer-
ing column. When the steering hand wheel is turned, it is
linked mechanically to the steering gear spool and causes
this spool valve to shift from its closed neutral position to
a “turn” position that allows oil under pressure to flow to
the steering cylinder.
When the steering hand wheel stops turning, centering
springs in the valve automatically center the spool, stop-
ping the flow of oil to the cylinder.
The low pressure oil from the opposite side of the steering
cylinder is returned through the opposite port in the gear.
It is controlled by the same spool as the high pressure
port.
In the event of a pump failure, the steering gear can gener-
ate sufficient hydraulic power by movement of the steer-
ing handwheel to serve as a limited steering method. An
internal check valve automatically closes to divert this
generated oil flow to the proper port of the steering cylin-
der.

Start-up
Whenever it is possible to do so, fill the pump ports with
system hydraulic fluid. This will make it easier for the
pump to prime when it is first started.
Self Priming : With a minimum drive speed of 600 RPM,
a pump should prime immediately.
Failure to prime within a short length of time may result in
damage due to lack of lubrication.
Inlet-lines must be tight and free from air leaks. However,
it may be necessary to loosen a fitting on the outlet side of
the pump to purge entrained air.
No Load Starting : These pumps are designed to startup
with no load on the pressure ports.
They should never be started against a load or a closed
center valve.

dence of external damage.
Preparation for Disassembly
Overhaul valve only in a clean, dust-free location, using
clean tools and equipment. Dirt or grit will damage the
highly-machined surfaces and will result in leakage or
premature failure of components. Cleanliness of the
hydraulic circuit is extremely important to the proper
operation and maintenance of the system. Be sure the
work area is clean.

set of chain for secondary cyliner.
Friction and play between the nesting rails is controlled by
roller sets mounted on the rails and carriage. When rails or
rollers become worn, the gap between the rollers and rails
becomes larger, creating more play in lifting and lowering
operations. The rail web to roller side clearances can be
reduced by shimming the rollers to close the gap between
the roller and rails. The gap between the rail flange and
roller bearing surface can be reduced by the use of over-
size rollers on a one-time basis.
Forks use a hanger design for mounting on the carriage.
Auxiliary attachments may be added to the upright for
specialized handling operations. The hydraulic circuit is
modified with a hose adapter kit and an auxiliary section
is added to the main hydraulic valve to operate the attach-
ment.
The lift and secondary cylinders on standard uprights and
triple-stage uprights (TSUs) are piston type cylinders. The
primary cylinder on TSUs and HILO are piston-type cyl-
inder. See the chart under “Specifications” to determine
the type of cylinder used on the upright you are servicing.
