Recommendations for minimizing levels


of vibration of the machine.
The level of vibration when driving depends on the following
conditions:
the state of the ground: potholes, lumps, etc.
driving conditions: speed, cornering, braking, etc.
The driver chooses his own speed and route as a function of the
terrain.
The result is a broad spectrum of levels of vibration which can be
minimized by respecting the following recommendations:
- Choose the machine and its equipment as a function of the
task
- Choose a machine in perfect condition (tyre
pressures, condition of brakes, steering, etc.)
- Changes of direction, braking, acceleration, changes
of speed, all move the load and the equipment.
- Keep the area where the machine operates in a good state.
Remove large stones and obstacles
Fill in holes
Schedule maintenance work on the operating area.
- Use a seat conforming to ISO 7096 and keep it in good
condition and correctly adjusted.
Adjust the seat and suspension as a function of the weight
and height of the operator.
Repair the adjustment and suspension
mechanisms if they are faulty.
- Suiting the speed of the machine to the nature of the ground
reduces vibration.
Slow down on rough ground.
Avoid obstacles and bad surfaces.

Machine operation

Machine operation

Both this paragraph and the instructions on safe operating practices at


the beginning of this manual must be studied before the machine is
driven.

The following instructions constitute reminders rather than advice,


since the manufacturer knows that this equipment will be entrusted to
an operator of confirmed competence.

Preliminary Inspection and Adjustments

Every day, before using the machine, go through maintenance check


list "A" of this manual.

Clean the windows, headlights, and mirrors to ensure full vision. Also
make sure the mirrors and operator's seat are properly adjusted.

Starting the engine.

To start the engine, proceed as follows:


1- Put the Forward/Reverse lever in neutral position (N).
2- Tighten the parking brake.
3- Sound the audible warning.
4- Start the engine (normal temperature conditions above -12°C
(10°F).

C 64440-04/a Chapter 4 - Page 27


Driving controls
Maintenance and operator's manual

This engine is designed to start without any aid to starting at


temperatures above -12°C (10°F). If the temperature is lower than -
12°C, it is necessary to use an aid to starting or to change the engine
oil to 15W40. For starting at temperatures under –12°C (10°F)
proceed as described in 4.

Warning
Do not operate the starter motor for more than 30 seconds at a
time. If the engine fails to start within that time, release the
engine start switch and wait two minutes before trying again. If
this precaution is not followed serious damage to the starter
motor may result.

while driving the machine.
4bis. To start the engine under cold conditions, temperatures under -
12°C (10°F), using a starting aid, proceed as follows:
A. Perform steps 1 and 2.
B. Spray a small amount of ether into the air intake.
C. Turn the key and start the engine as previously described
in step 3 above.

NOTE - During the period of starting, extra batteries (this is a 24


volt electrical system) may be required. This will depend on the
charge condition of the machine's battery.

NOTE - Use ether sparingly and cautiously. If too much ether is


used, it has a retarding effect in starting the engine. Also, ether is
not effective at temperatures below -23° C (-10° F).

WARNING
The engine Oil Pressure Indicator Light and the Transmission Oil
Pressure Indicator Light will illuminate until the oil pressures
reach the normal operating pressure at start-up. If oil pressure
does not reach normal operating pressure within 15 seconds
after start-up, stop the engine immediately and correct the cause
of low oil pressure.

5- Check all instruments immediately after the engine starts, to be


sure they are reading properly. If the readings are incorrect, stop the
engine immediately and determine the cause of the improper gauge
reading before continuing operation.

6- Allow the engine to run at high idle speed for 4 to 5 minutes or


preferably until the water temperature reaches the normal operating
temperature before operating the machine.

WARNING
Failure to comply with the instructions to torsionally control and
lock section 2 with the boom base will jeopardise the boom
structure and compromise machine operation.
The machine operator or maintenance manager must ensure that
the instructions regarding checks to the operating clearances on
the 2 boom sections and to the condition of the guide pads are
followed.
Consult the maintenance instructions regarding this point.
Failure to comply with these instructions may seriously affect
machine performance.
TEREX cannot be held responsible for damage caused by failure
to follow such measures.
ALWAYS follow the instructions in the maintenance section
regarding regular checks and adjustments.

Prevention of fire risks in


the engine compartment.
The engine compartment must be inspected each time the machine is
to be put into service, that is to say every day.

When carrying out this inspection, check that the oil, fuel and air
conditioning circuits are leak tight and dry.
Check the tightness of the fuel and oil filters, the injection pump, the
hydraulic unit, the hydraulic motors of the ventilation apparatus and
their supply piping.
The leaktghtness and correct operation of the exhaust system,
especially the exhaust fixing flange must also be checked.

Due to the heat produced by the exhaust pipes, it is important to make


sure that the electric circuits are positioned and fixed far enough away
from them, and that they are properly insulated.
If the engine compartment is not regularly cleaned, it may become
fouled with oil or fuel, especially after maintenance or repair work. In
the case of a machine with sound insulation, the sound insulation
panels must be cleaned regularly.

The engine compartment must only be cleaned with non-flammable

Container handling cycle

Before starting to operate the machine, the driver must study all the
instructions given in this manual and in the chapter on safe operating
practices at the beginning of this manual.
The driver must familiarize himself with the controls and their
operation.

The handling cycle for a container is as follows:

pproach the container to be moved.


Lock the container to the spreader.
Lift the container.
Travel with the container.
Deposit the container.

These operations must be performed as follows:


1- Use the service brake to slow the machine, irrespective of the type
of transmission. When approaching the container, change down into
1st gear on machines with the Powershift gearbox.

2- Position the machine as close to the container as possible.


Use the service brake and gearbox neutral pedal to disengage the
transmission clutch and keep the full power of the engine available for
the other functions of the machine (telescoping and lifting).

3- At this stage, the red indicator lights of the spreader should be on.

4- Lower the spreader onto the container to be handled.


The red and white indicator lights of the spreader should now be on.
The boom must not be manoeuvred while the container is being
locked on to the spreader.
The container will not be locked in place until the four lock switches
have been pressed in.
Reposition the spreader if the locks cannot be engaged and the load
locked into place.
Once the four lock switches have been pressed in, the spreader’s
white operating lights will come on. The derricking-down and
telescoping-out functions will then be shut off. Use the LMI override
key to re-activate these functions.

DANGER
This override must only be used in exceptional circumstances
and under the responsibility of the worksite manager.
Operators should be aware that raising a load while the override
is activated could damage the vehicle or cause injury.

5- Pull the spreader lock/release lever towards you to actuate the twist
locks. The red indicator lights go off and the white and green ones go
on once the twist locks are locked.

6- Only the green indicator lights remain on during handling.

7- Balance the container by using the spreader side shift control.

8- Travel with the container as close as possible to the front axle and
high enough for the drover to be able to see underneath it.

NOTE
It is impossible to see underneath a container if it is being
transported in longitudinal position.

9- Use the same approach procedure as in points 1 and 2.

10- Position the container and lower it into place.


The white spreader indicator lights will go on once the container is in
place, and the twist locks can be released.

11- When the twist locks are released, the red spreader operating
lights go on and the spreader can be released from the container.
The white spreader indicator lights go off once the spreader is
disengaged from the container.

Stopping the engine


To stop the engine, proceed as follows:

1- Place the transmission shift lever in the neutral position.

2- Pull the parking brake control lever up to set the parking brakes.

3. Allow the engine to idle for 3 to 5 minutes. This will allow the engine
and turbocharger to cool down and prevents overheating due to
localized residual heat. Extreme heat can seize bearings.

4. Push in and hold the engine shutdown button rep 77 until the
engine comes to a complete stop.
