CHAPTER 7. PRE-SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
SECTION 2. RULES WHEN SERVICING
GENERAL
Do not carry out any work on the machine unless
you are trained and have the knowledge to carry
out the work.
Service which is not carried out in the correct way
may be dangerous. Make sure that you have
sufficient knowledge, the correct information, the
correct tools and the right equipment in order to
carry out the service in the correct way.
Repair or change broken tools and faulty
equipment. Read all plates and decals on the
machine and in the manual before you start
servicing the machine. Each of the instructions
contains important information about handling
and servicing.
Do not wear loose fitting clothing or jewellery
when working on the machine.
Always wear a hard hat, safety glasses, gloves,
shoes and other protective articles as the job
requires.
When carrying out service work in the articulation
area, ensure that the articulation safety bar has
been installed.
Always stop the engine to service the machine,
unless otherwise instructed in this manual.
When changing oil in the engine, fluid in the
hydraulic system or transmission, remember that
the oil and fluid may be hot and can cause burns.
When lifting or supporting components, use
equipment with a lifting capacity which is at least
as great as the components.
All lifting devices, for example slings and ratchet
blocks, must comply with national regulations for
lifting devices. BELL EQUIPMENT COMPANY
will not accept any responsibility if any lifting
devices, tools or working methods are used other
than those described in this manual.
REVISION 0
872154
• Stop the engine before removing engine
covers or similar.
• Make sure that no tools or other objects which
can cause damage are left in or on the
machine.
• Switch OFF the batteries disconnect switch or
disconnect the battery before performing
maintenance on the machine.
• Relieve the pressure in the relevant system
gradually before starting to work on a system
component or assembly.
• All pressurised vessels must be opened very
carefully.
• When checking for leaks, use a piece of paper
or wood, do not use your hands.
• Never set a pressure limiting valve to a higher
pressure than that recommended by the
manufacturer. Only qualified personnel must
adjust any valve settings.
• Before starting the engine indoors, make sure
that the ventilation is sufficient to cope with the
exhaust gases.
• Do not stand behind the machine while the
engine is running.
HANDLING AND STORING
DIESEL FUEL
‹ CAUTION
1. Handle diesel fuel carefully. Do not fill the
tank when engine is running.
2. DO NOT smoke while you fill the tank or
service the fuel system.
3. The fuel tank is vented through the filler
cap. Always replace the cap with an original
filler cap.
Fill the tank at the end of each day’s operation to
prevent condensation and freezing during cold
weather.
When fuel is stored for an extended period or if
there is a slow turn over of fuel, add a fuel
conditioner to stabilize the fuel and prevent water
condensation.
Contact your fuel supplier for recommendations.
127
872154
Lubrication Storage
Use clean containers to handle all lubricants.
Whenever possible, store lubricants and
containers in an area protected from dust,
moisture and other contamination. Store
containers on their side to avoid water and dirt
accumulation.
Mark all containers properly. Dispose of all old
containers and any residual lubricants they may
contain.
Measures to Prevent Fires
There is always a risk of fire.
Find out which type of fire extinguisher to use,
where it is kept and how to use it.
Any fire fighting equipment stored on the
machine must be maintained in working order.
At the slightest sign of fire, and if the situation
allows, take the following steps:
• Move the machine away from the danger area.
• Stop the engine and turn the ignition to the
OFF position.
• Leave the cab.
• Start putting out the fire and notify the fire
brigade if required.
Do not smoke or have a naked flame near a
machine when filling with fuel or when the fuel
system has been opened.
Diesel fuel oil is flammable and should not be
used for cleaning, use an approved solvent.
Remember that certain solvents can cause skin
rashes and are usually flammable. Do not inhale
solvent vapour.
Store flammable starting aids in a cool, well
ventilated location. Remember that such aids
(starting gas) must not be used in connection
with preheating of the induction manifold.
Keep the work place clean. Oil and/or water on
the floor makes it slippery.
Oil and/or water in close proximity to electrical
equipment or electrically powered tools are
dangerous and any spills should be cleaned up
immediately.
128
CHAPTER 7 B20D 6X4 & 6X6 ADT Mk III
Oily clothes are a serious fire hazard.

On Board Weighing System (OBW)
(Optional)
The OBW weighs the load as it is loaded onto the
bin. It automatically add up the weight as it is
loaded.
Functional description of the OBW with
upgraded software (See Service Bulletin
2005/1013).
The above sequence repeats 10 times after
which the CCU Module commences with its
normal operation. This power-up sequence can
be used during the installation phase to confirm
the wiring and light colors.
If the OBW function is switched off at the MDU,
the OBW module will complete the power-on test
sequence but will not drive any lights during
normal operation.

The On Board Weighing Module (OBW)

measures the strain as seen by the truck’s
walking beams.

This data is sent to the Chassis Computer Unit

(CCU) via the Controller Area Network (CAN),
where the strain is used to calculate the payload
of the truck.

The calculated payload is transmitted on the CAN

bus in the vehicle weight message, cargo weight.
(See specification SAE J1939 – 71, message
Vehicle weight for more detail.) The OBW Module
uses this data to determine which load light
should be on.

The Chassis Control Unit (CCU) determins the

truck’s rated capacity (in short tons) from the VIN
number. The CCU module converts this value to
metric tones and drive the load lights in the
following manner:

• If the vehicle speed is lower than 5 km/h and

the payload is less than 75% of the truck’s
rated capacity, the yellow light is blinking at a
rate of 1 blink per second.
• Irrespective of the vehicle speed, if the
payload is equal or larger than 75% but less
than 95% of the truck’s rated capacity, the
yellow light is permanently on.
• Irrespective of the vehicle speed, if the
payload is equal to 95% and less than 110%
of the truck’s rated capacity, the green light is
permanently on.
• Irrespective of the vehicle speed, if the
payload is larger than 110% of the truck’s
rated capacity, the red light will be on.

During power-on, the CCU Module tests the load

lights. First it switches only the yellow light on for
a period of 100 ms, then only the green light for
100 ms then only the red light for 100 ms. At the
end it switches all the lights off for 200ms.
