III. Use of Vehicle

1.Preparation for Driving

Keep the vehicle in good condition. Do not drive the vehicle with faults.

1.1Preparations

Preparations before driving mainly includes: start and stop of the engine and routine inspection before
driving.
1) Turn on the main power switch to power on the vehicle;
2) Check the operating conditions of the whole circuit system. After the key switch is turned on (the key
switch is at the "ON" position), all instruments are in normal indication.
3) Inspection of oil and fluids of the vehicle
a. Inspection of engine oil: Park the vehicle on a flat ground and then pull out the oil dipstick before
starting. The upper end of the oil stain shall lie between MAX and MIN. If it is higher than MAX,
drain oil; otherwise, inject oil. If the engine has been started, this inspection shall be conducted 15
min after the stop of the engine.
b. Inspection of coolant: Start the engine and switch on the air heater to run for 2 min. At this
moment, the engine water temperature shall be 50±5°C and the coolant level shall vary between
MAX and MIN. If the level is lower than MIN, it needs to inject coolant.
Coolant shall be injected when the engine is idling after pressure relief through the pressure relief valve.

It is strictly prohibited from injecting coolant when the engine is at high temperature.

c. Fuel inspection: Observe the fuel indicator light on the instrument when the engine is started, and
inject a proper amount of fuel based on the performance and operating requirements of the
engine. Fuel must be injected if the fuel level is lower than 1/8.
d. Brake fluid inspection: Conduct inspection after air is exhausted from the clutch system to ensure
the brake fluid level between MAX and MIN.
e. Windshield washer fluid inspection: Visually observe the windshield washer fluid level which shall
vary between MAX and MIN. If the level is lower than MIN, it needs to inject windshield washer
fluid.
25
January 13, 2022 III. Use of Vehicle
DW90A 1. Preparation for Driving

f. Hydraulic oil inspection: Park the vehicle on a flat ground, lift the dump body 5 times consecutively
and then shut down the engine. After 15 min, check the oil dipstick of the hydraulic oil tank to
ensure the oil level between MAX and MIN. If the level is lower than MIN, it needs to inject
hydraulic oil. Do not inject hydraulic oil of different brands!
4) Check for water in the brake air reservoir. When the vehicle is stationary, pull down or push up the
exhaust valve to remove water from the air reservoir. If there is any oil-water mixture is discharged,
it indicates that the desiccator has failed and shall be replaced immediately.
5) Check the tire pressure. In case of insufficient air pressure, inflate tires with special tools.
6) Leakage inspection: After the vehicle is started, check for any leakage of lubricating oil, coolant and
air lines.
7) Air intake system of engine
a. Check the prefilter for any blockage by foreign matters.
b. Check for any breakage of the pipeline between the supercharger inlet and the air filter outlet, and
if any, replace the pipeline in time.
c. Before the vehicle starts to run, check for any people or other obstacles around the vehicle.

1.2Start of Engine

Turn the key switch to the "ON" position to start the engine.

Do not turn off the key switch while the vehicle is running!

1) Starting process: Push the transmission shift lever to the neutral position, press the clutch pedal,
and then turn the key switch to "START" to start the engine.

If the start of the engine fails, push the key back to "ACC" for restarting. If the engine still cannot
be started within 5~10 sec, wait for 1 min and then repeat the above operation. If the start of the
engine fails 3 times consecutively, stop starting, find out and repair faults before start. After start,
idle the engine for a few minutes, and then slowly increase the speed to 1,000~1,2000 r/min for
running with partial load. Full-load running of the engine is allowed only when the water
temperature is higher than 60°C and the engine oil temperature higher than 50°C!

2) Inspection of engine oil pressure after start


After the engine is started, observe the pressure value indicated by the pressure gauge. The engine oil
pressure indicator light shall be off.

Do not allow the engine to run at high speed in a cold state. Instead, idle it for 2~3 min first. If the
engine oil pressure gauge has no indication, shut down the engine immediately for inspection.

The 1st position is the constant speed gear


1) Adjust the travel speed (generally greater than 30km/h), engine rpm (greater than 1500r/min).
2) Enable constant speed function at desire speed. The retarder ensures the constant speed of the
truck within the maximum brake torque range. If already in the constant speed gear, but need to
reset the constant speed downhill, shift the gear back to “0” position and then to the “1st” position. If
the constant speed function is enabled and the travel speed increases, the service brake auxiliary
retarder is required to adjust the travel speed. If the handle is not in the constant speed gear, the
automatic adjusting function is closed immediately. When using constant speed gear, if the retarder
has high temperature protection (the working indicator light flashes), the retarder will automatically
lower the torque or exit. If need to realize the constant speed again, manually shift to constant speed
gear after the working indicator light stops flashing.
3) Exit the constant speed. Brake gear is used in 2-5 brake position, at this time, the engine rpm is
greater than 1500r/min. When the brake gear increases from gear 2 to gear 5, the brake torque is
also increases in turn, and select a reasonable brake gear base on the weight of truck or the brake
distant. Shift the retarder gear switch step by step (do not shift the gear in jump style) to obtain
proper brake torque. In order to reduce the actual brake torque, shift the handle switch from high
gear to low gear over multiple steps. After braking, turn the retarder handle back to “0” position.

Disconnect the main switch immediately when the following situations occur:
1. When parking the truck, the retarder indicator is aways on.
2. When the brake pedal is not depressed, the manual switch is in O position, and there is drag

4.1Operation and Maintenance of Engine

YC6K480 engine is adopted and refer to the Operation Manual for details.

4.2Replacement of Engine Oil, Filter and Prefilter

During the service of vehicles, engine oil, filter and prefilter are required to be replaced regularly
according to the length of service period, to ensure the engine can run stably.
1) Replacement of engine oil
Replacement interval: Replace the engine oil in strict accordance with the interval specified in
"Mandatory Maintenance Details about DW90A Mining Dump Truck" when the trucks are still in the
mandatory maintenance time limit (mileage). See the replacement interval specified in Operation and
Maintenance Manual of YC6K480 Engine if the trucks are beyond the mandatory maintenance time limit
(mileage).
a. Open the drain plug to drain oil (The drain plug is on the bottom of engine oil pan, namely, No. 1 in
the figure below).
When draining oil, pay attention to checking whether the engine oil color is normal and whether the
engine oil is free of foreign matters. Find out and eliminate any faults and hidden troubles in time.
b. After the oil is drained out, remove the foreign matters on the drain plug and then tighten the plug.
c. Replace the old engine oil filter element with a new one. Fill new engine oil into the engine till the
oil level reaches the upper limit of dipstick. To prevent the engine from starting without being
lubricated, turn the key switch to the start position (gear 4) when the HP oil pump does not supply
oil, idle the engine for a while, and start the engine to run at a low speed after the engine is
lubricated. Check whether the engine oil filter leaks oil.

4.4Maintenance

Both inspection and maintenance shall be carried out for the engines in strict accordance with the
"Routine Inspection and Maintenance Interval Mileage". For detailed steps, see "Section 6 - Technical
Specification for Maintenance" mentioned in Operation and Maintenance Manual.

4.5Operation Specification for In-cylinder Braking of the Engine

4.5.1 What is engine overspeed

The engine overspeed refers to the speed of the engine exceeding the maximum allowable operating
speed of the engine during the operation of the vehicle. It is required that the maximum speed of
YC6K480 engine shall not exceed 2100 rpm.

4.5.2 What are the reasons for engine overspeed

The engine overspeed can be divided into two types: active overspeed and passive overspeed.
Since the electronic control technology has already been widely used for engines, that is, the fuel supply
is controlled by ECU, which fundamentally guarantees that the engine overspeed will not be caused
during combustion work and the engine overspeed will not occur due to the engine itself.
The passive engine overspeed is caused by reversed towing of the engine by the vehicle's transmission
system due to cut-in during gear shifting or shifting to a wrong gear when the vehicle is running, resulting
in the engine speed exceeding the limit. At this time, the engine has stopped fuel supply and work, and is
rotating passively due to the reversed towing.

4.5.3 What faults or failures may be caused by engine overspeed

The engine overspeed may cause movement disorder of the engine valve mechanism, and the valve
may hit the piston, causing valve breakage, piston fracture or even cracking of the cylinder block. It may
also cause the tightening bolts of the gear system driving the valve mechanism to loose or break, or
faults such as the displacement of the interference-based press-fitted gears. Such faults are not covered
by the engine warranty and need self-paying repair.

4.5.4 Instructions for preventing overspeed:

When the vehicle is running, if the engine speed exceeds1900 r/min, the driver shall hit the brake to slow
down the vehicle and shift gears in time to prevent overspeed. If the speed exceeds 2300 r/min, the
instrument buzzer will give an audio alarm at a frequency of 1 Hz.
61
January 13, 2022 III. Use of Vehicle
DW90A 4. Maintenance of Engine and Its Auxiliary System

4.5.5 Instructions for brake use:

The working principle of engine brake:


When the vehicle brake switch is turned on, the engine will stop injecting fuel into the cylinder during
compression braking. In this case, the engine serves only as a compressor that absorbs power, and the
engine brake system will open the exhaust valve before the end of the compression stroke to prevent
combustion in the cylinder. The compressed air will be discharged through the exhaust system, and the
compression energy will no longer drive the engine to run through the power stroke, which increases the
engine's braking power and provides additional braking force of 326 horsepower for the vehicle. It shall
be turned on before going downhill and the appropriate gear shall be selected and applied in cooperation
with the brake.
Service conditions for engine brake:
1. Turn on the engine brake switch on the right side of the steering wheel
Engine brake switch

P1T000075

2. The engine speed is higher than 1000 rpm.


3. The opening degree of the accelerator pedal is 0.
4. The clutch pedal is in the released state.
Out-of-service conditions for engine brake:
1. Turn off the engine brake switch on the right side of the steering wheel.
2. Depress the accelerator or clutch pedal.
62
III. Use of Vehicle January 13, 2022
4. Maintenance of Engine and Its Auxiliary System DW90A

1.Generally, the engine overspeed is caused due to the dragging by the whole vehicle when a too
low gear is selected by the driver during downhill driving. Since the vehicle speed is directly
related to the vehicle's transmission ratio and the rear axle speed ratio, in theory, when the
current vehicle speed exceeds the maximum speed limit of the current gear, the engine is likely
to overspeed.
2.The lower the gear is, the higher the vehicle speed will be, and the easier the engine overspeed
will become.
3.Engine brake is an auxiliary braking tool, which could not completely replace the parking brake.
It shall be turned on before going downhill and the appropriate gear shall be selected and applied
in cooperation with the brake.

Under no circumstances should an engine overspeed alarm appear. Generally, the engine brake
shall be turned on before running downhill to ensure that the engine overspeed will not occur.
Once the engine overspeed occurs, very serious consequences may be caused by even a very
short period of overspeed. Engine faults caused by the engine overspeed are not covered by the
engine warranty and need self-paying repair.

5.Transmission

The DW90A wide-body dump truck is mainly equipped with Fast 8-gear mechanical transmission and 7-
gear mechanical transmission as optional equipment. In addition, FC AT automatic transmission may
also be adopted as required by the user.
The mechanical transmission is also designed with double middle shaft and without the auxiliary
transmission. The shift sleeve rather than synchronizer is used for gear shifting. The first gear features a
high speed ratio and strong gradeability. The arrangement of gear positions is rational, the difference
between speed ratios is small, the gear position is clear, and the gear shifting is flexible. Double levers
and a flexible shaft are used for manipulation so the gears can be engaged conveniently and easily.
Adopt a structure with a large center distance and features a long service life, applicable to the mines
operating condition.

5.1.Structure of Transmission

5.1.1Double Middle Shaft

Equipped with two structurally identical middle shafts, with a spacing of 1800. After the power is input
through the input shaft, it is respectively sent to these two middle shafts, and then two component forces
gather together on the main shaft for output. The structure is as shown in the figure.

P1TT00049

With the double middle shaft structure, all gears on the main shaft are simultaneously engaged into the
gears on these two middle shafts. Various main shaft gears move on the main shaft, so the main primary
shafts only subject to torque, free of bending moment, thus improving the stress status of main shaft and
bearing. In theory, each middle shaft only transmits 1/2 of torque so the double middle shaft structure
can reduce the center distance of transmission, the width of gears, the axial dimension, and the weight,
thus featuring high reliability and durability.

5.1.2"Gear Matching" and Its Procedure

In the event of the double middle shaft structure, "gear matching" must be performed to ensure correct
engagement between middle shaft gears and main shaft gears.
The "gear matching" means: During the assembling of transmission, the marked gear teeth on the drive
gears of two middle shafts are respectively inserted into the grooves of two groups of marked gear teeth
on the input shaft (primary shaft) gears (each group includes two adjacent teeth), as shown in the figure.
The "gear matching" of auxiliary transmission is also performed as per the above method. Usually, the
pair of gears at the rear position is used for "gear matching".
"Gear matching" procedure:
(1) Mark any two adjacent gear teeth on the primary shaft gear. Then, mark the corresponding two
adjacent gear teeth opposite to the above two gear teeth. Ensure that the quantity of teeth between
two groups of marks shall be the same.
(2) Mark the tooth on the drive gear of each middle shaft towards the gear keyway to facilitate
identification.
(3) During assembling, respectively engage the marked teeth on the drive gear of two middle shafts into
the marked gear tooth grooves on both sides of the primary shaft gear.

5.1.3Shift Mechanism

The main transmission is not installed with a synchronizer, and the gear shifting is realized by moving the
gear sleeve. The secondary shaft sliding sleeve is installed on the secondary shaft via an involute spline.
When the sliding sleeve is moved, the soldered teeth (outer spline) of sliding sleeve are engaged into the
inner spline of secondary shaft gear, to transmit the power.

5.2Control Structure

The mechanical transmission is of the double-lever long-distance control (as shown in Fig.). T The
neutral position of the transmission is at the gears 4 and 5. The control lever is moved front and back as
well as left and right by the lever head. The gear selection and shifting flexible shafts are respectively
used to drive and rotate the rocker arm to the corresponding positions, thus realizing the gear shifting.

(Refer to Fig..)
Requirements are as follows:
a. When the flexible shaft is installed on the vehicle, its bending radius shall not be less than 300mm
and its service temperature range shall be -40 ~ +100°C.
b. The connection between flexible shaft and gear shifting/selection rocker arms shall meet the
following requirements:
(1) The angle between flexible shaft and rocker arm shall be 90° as far as possible.
(2) For the flexible shaft, its guided sleeve and jacket connector must be on the same straight line with
the push-pull rod in terms of spatial position.
c. The gear selection flexible shaft and the gear shifting flexible shaft are respectively installed on the
controller.
d. Put the control lever to the neutral position, and then check whether the dimension of transmission
end flexible shaft meets the requirement. If not, adjust the connecting length between flexible shaft
ball joint and pull rod thread, to change the installation dimension of flexible shaft.
e. Perform both gear shifting and selection upon installation, to ensure that the lever can be pushed
into each gear position. In case of any difficulties in gear selection, check and adjust the

5.4Control and Precautions for Transmission

(1) Before a vehicle starts to run, its parking brake shall be released. For a vehicle with energy storage
air break breaking, after the brake valve of vehicle is enabled, the vehicle cannot start to run with its
lever in the correct gear position unless the air pressure increases to the value large enough to
release the brake.
(2) Start in gear 1 or gear 2 according to the road conditions.
(3) During gear shifting, the clutch shall be thoroughly separated, the shift lever shall be pushed in place,
and the shift sleeve shall be fully engaged.
(4) If the lever needs to be pushed into the reverse gear, the vehicle shall be stopped before gear
shifting, to avoid the damage to parts inside the transmission. When the lever is pushed into the
reverse gear, a relatively strong gear selection force is required to overcome the resistance from the
reverse gear lock.
(5) When the lever is pushed from the low gear position area to the high one (vice versa), the lever shall
be upshifted gear by gear; otherwise, the service life of auxiliary transmission synchronizer will be
affected.
(6) When the vehicle runs downhill, the gear shifting between high and low gear position areas shall be
avoided as much as possible.
(7) When the vehicle is parked, the shift lever shall be put in the neutral gear.
(8) During running, in case of any abnormal sounds from the transmission, unsmooth operation and
other abnormal phenomena, the driver shall immediately stop the vehicle for inspection and not drive
the vehicle again until all faults are eliminated.
(9) An inspection shall be frequently carried out for the breather plug. If the plug is blocked with mud, the
mud shall be removed when founded.
(10)Operation of dragged vehicle
When the transmission is working, both its shaft and gears rotate quickly, sufficiently lubricating the
transmission. However, when the vehicle is dragged with its rear wheels on the ground and its power
train system connected, the middle shaft gear and the main shaft gear of the main transmission will not
rotate, but the main shaft will rotate at a high speed, driven by the rear wheels. As a result, the
transmission will be severely damaged due to lack of lubricating.
To prevent this phenomenon, attention shall be paid to the following points:
Never allow a vehicle to slide with its lever in the neutral gear when it is shut down.
Never press the clutch pedal to allow a vehicle to slide with its lever in the neutral gear.
When a vehicle needs to be dragged, the half shaft can be taken out, or the drive shaft can be released,
or the drive wheels can be above the ground.

5.5Maintenance of Transmission

Correct and rational use and regular maintenance of transmission are very important to ensure safe and
reliable vehicle running and prolong the service life of transmission. Please follow the use requirements
given below.

5.5.1.Designation of Lubricant

The transmission must be filled with the gear oil with its property at least at the 85W/90 GL-5 level.

5.5.2.Correct Oil Level

It needs to ensure that the oil level is flush with the lower edge of filler. The conical oil filler hole on the
side of oil pan can be used to check the oil level. Oil filling can be stopped when oil overflows from the
filler hole. The oil level shall be at least 5mm below the lower edge of oil level observation hole. An
excess oil amount will give rise to temperature rise and oil leakage of transmission. An extremely small
amount of oil will give rise to poor lubricating of components, and even burnout of transmission.

5.5.3.Working Temperature

The highest temperature of the transmission in continuous operation shall not exceed 120°C. In case of
exceeding this limit value, the lubricant will be disintegrated, thus reducing the service life of
transmission. When the transmission starts below -40°C, its rubber seals such as oil seal will be
damaged, and leakage will occur.
The working temperature of transmission will exceed 120°C in the event of any one of the following
cases:
(1) The transmission continuously works at a traveling speed < 32Km/h.
(2) The engine speed is high.
(3) High ambient temperature;
(4) The transmission is surrounded by eddy current.
(5) The exhaust system is too close to the transmission.
(6) The transmission runs at a large power and overspeed.
76
III. Use of Vehicle January 13, 2022
5. Transmission DW90A

5.5.4.Working Slant Angle

The lubricating may be insufficient when the working slant angle of transmission exceeds 12°. The
working slant angle is equal to the installation angle of transmission on chassis plus the upper slope
angle. If the slant angle exceeds 12°, the transmission shall be installed with a lubrication pump or
cooling device, to ensure a proper lubricating effect.

5.5.5.Lubricant Replacement Interval

During replacement of lubricant for transmission, the old lubricant in transmission shall be drained out.
To avoid chemical reactions between the lubricants of different models, the model of new lubricant shall
be the same as that of old one.
For a new transmission, its lubricant must be replaced when the vehicle mileage reaches
2,000~3,000km.
Both lubricant level and leakage shall be checked for every 10,000km, and the lubricant shall be
supplemented when needed at any time. During the inspection of lubricant level, the vehicle shall be
parked on a level road. Considering the volume expansion of hot lubricant, to avoid inaccurate

The clutch system is mainly used to interrupt or transmit the engine power, thus enabling the gear
shifting of transmission.

2. Clutch master cylinder 4. Air reservoir 6. Release fork 8. Clutch Assembly

The clutch control system is of a hydraulic control and pneumatic booster structure (as shown in Fig.).
When the clutch pedal is pressed, the master cylinder pushes the brake fluid into the hydraulic control
chamber of booster cylinder installed on the bottom of transmission. On one hand, the brake fluid applies
the working pressure to the piston. On the other hand, it also applies the control pressure to regulate the
air inlet valve in the booster cylinder air chamber. When compressed air flows into the booster cylinder
air chamber, a pneumatic boosting force is generated and pushes the piston together with the brake fluid
so that the booster cylinder push rod moves forwards. With the lever effect, the release rocker arm and
the release fork push the release bearing backwards (as shown in Fig.). As a result, the pressing force
between friction disc and flywheel exerted by pressure plate disappears, and the friction disc and
flywheel are separated.
When the pedal is released, the clutch master cylinder gets back to its original position and the oil
pressure disappears. Under the effect of diaphragm spring, the clutch pressure plate, release bearing,
release fork, and clutch booster push rod all get back to their original positions.

6.2Installation of Clutch

1) Installation of clutch: Install both driven disc assembly and friction disc on the mandrel (positioning
tool used to install clutch driven disc), and align them to the flywheel center hole. Fit two stud bolts of
flywheel into any two holes on the clutch pressure plate. Respectively install other 10 hexagon
stubs, and tighten them diagonally.
2) Connection of pull-type clutch: After the above steps are completed for the pull-type clutch, (1) take
out four clamp springs from the pressure plate assembly to close the flexible lock ring on the clutch
pressure plate assembly (as shown in View A of Fig.); (2) install the release bearing on the
transmission spline shaft and then install the release fork; (3) install the transmission onto the engine
flywheel housing, and apply a backward tensile force to the release fork at the booster cylinder
installation position (connect a soft cable to the upper end of release fork to pull backward); after a
sound of "bang" is heard, the clutch cover assembly and the release bearing are fitted in place (the
flexible lock ring is fixed onto the release bearing); then, install the booster cylinder.

Inspection and adjustment for clearance between master cylinder push rod and piston: When adjusting,
gently push the pedal with a hand to feel that the clutch master cylinder push rod contacts the piston;
then, adjust the height of stopper bolt to ensure a clearance of 0.5mm-1mm between push rod and pis-
ton (slightly shake as shown in Fig.); finally, tighten the nut. The clearance between push rod and piston
should not exceed 1mm; otherwise, the effective stroke of clutch master cylinder will be reduced. The
installation deflection angle shall not exceed 3° (as shown in Fig.); otherwise, the upper end face of
clutch master cylinder will be subject to eccentric wear and oil leakage.

6.4Precautions for Use and Maintenance of Clutch Control System

6.4.1Air in Hydraulic system

If air exists in the clutch hydraulic system, the effective stroke of booster cylinder push rod will be
reduced, the separation of clutch will be incomplete, and the shift lever will be difficult to be pushed to the
corresponding gears. During assembling or removal of oil pipes, loosen the bleed screw of booster
cylinder (Fig. P1T000112); add the brake fluid of specified designation from the oil can; press the clutch
pedal and simultaneously supplement the brake fluid till the fluid overflows from the exhaust valve;
tighten the bleed screw, and then quickly press the clutch pedal for several times and then press and
hold the clutch pedal; loosen the bleed screw of booster cylinder till no air leaks; tighten the exhaust
valve and repeat the above steps for 2~3 times. In this way, the air in the hydraulic system will be
thoroughly discharged.
Position of Bleed Screw

P1T000112

During exhaust, tighten the exhaust valve or union nut before releasing the pedal, to avoid suction of air.
When the pedal is released, it shall get back to the maximum height so that the brake fluid in oil can will
be supplemented to the total cylinder hydraulic chamber.
6.4.2In the first maintenance of a new vehicle, the clearance shall be readjusted once. In each Level-II
maintenance, namely, vehicle mileage reaching 12,000km every time, the clearance shall be checked
and adjusted once. In each Level-I maintenance, namely, vehicle mileage reaching 4,000km every time,
the clearance shall be checked once.
6.4.3The DOT3 brake fluid is used as the working medium of the hydraulic system. During removal and
installation of oil pipes, a threaded sealant can be used to seal the union nut and connector.
6.4.4During replacement of brake fluid, the residual fluid left in the hydraulic system shall be drained out
thoroughly and then the brake fluid of the specified designation and batch shall be filled uniformly.
6.4.5The brake fluid is corrosive, so it needs to prevent the brake fluid from splashing on the human
body or paint surface during exhaust.
6.4.6The brake fluid selected must conform to HZY3, HZY4, DOT3, DOT4 and similar standards. It is
forbidden to use mineral oil or other poor quality brake fluid.
84
III. Use of Vehicle January 13, 2022
6. Clutch and Its Control Parts DW90A

6.4.7The booster selected must be as long as the push rod, to avoid burnout of clutch disc or oil leakage
of booster.
6.4.8During maintenance, the professional technicians of repair factory shall be employed to remove,
disassemble, clean, adjust and replace all damaged seals and relevant components. These parts and
components must be cleaned with ethyl alcohol and then dried with compressed air, to avoid invasion of
external dust or foreign matters. During replacement of new seals, the seal lubricating grease must be
applied and it is forbidden to perform the assembling by force.

6.5Common Faults and Troubleshooting

6.5.1Incomplete Separation of Clutch or Spongy Brake Pedal

When the clutch is pressed, the clutch cannot separate completely, the lever cannot be
Fault pushed into a gear, abnormal sounds can be heard when the lever is pushed into a
gear, or a spongy brake pedal is felt.
(1) The clearance of master cylinder push rod is too large.
(2) The clearance of fork rocker arm is too large.
(3) Air exists in the braking line.
Main causes (4) The oil pipe expands and the stroke is reduced.
(5) The booster leaks air or oil.
(6) The master cylinder leaks inside so a pressure cannot be provided.
(7) The clutch pressure plate spring is soft.
Solutions:
1Measure the movement distance of clutch booster push rod or the swing distance of
rocker arm.
If the swing distance is more than 25mm (20mm for most vehicle models; please refer
to the vehicles of the same model), the fault cause is that the clutch pressure plate
spring is soft and the replacement of clutch pressure plate can eliminate this fault.

Working process: a. The hydraulic oil reaches the port P of priority valve from the oil pump. The oil
reaches the port CF at first, and then reaches port P of steering gear, and finally flows through the one-
way valve. When the steering gear valve element is in the middle position, the hydraulic oil cannot pass.
In this case, the oil pressure in the priority valve control oil line will increase. The oil in the left control line
of priority valve passes through three orifices and then flows back to the oil tank. The right control line is
static so the oil pressure in the right line is more than that in the left line. The priority valve element
moves towards the left side and the hydraulic oil from oil pump will flow to the port EF, thus supplying oil
to the equipment. B. When the steering wheel is turned right, the hydraulic oil passes through the port
CF, priority valve P and one-way valve in turns. The steering gear is in the right position, and the
hydraulic oil will flow into the oil cylinder through the oil line, thus forcing the tires to change their
direction.

7.3Steering Control

The steering control of this vehicle features full hydraulic steering. A driver can control the vehicle to run
along a straight line or make a turn with the steering wheel.
(1) Middle position: When the vehicle runs along a straight line, the driver does not need to apply a
steering force to the steering wheel and the wheel will not rotate.
(2) Steering process: When the vehicle needs to make a turn, the driver will turn the steering wheel. In
this case, the hydraulic oil will push the oil cylinder to realize the steering. Specifically, if the driver
turns the steering wheel to the left side, the vehicle will turn left; if the driver turns the steering wheel
to the right side, the vehicle will turn right.
(3) Straightening of steering wheel: After the steering control is finished, the driver needs to straighten
the steering wheel. In this case, the hydraulic oil will push the oil cylinder to realize this purpose. The
vehicle wheels will get back to be along a straight line till the vehicle itself runs straightly.
(4) Flow amplification effect: It refers to the characteristic that the steering effective displacement is
equal to the measured displacement (400ml/r) in case of the steering at a low speed (5RPM) and the
equivalent displacement (640ml/r) in case of the steering at a high speed (5-60RPM). The
advantages are as follows: If the steering wheel is slowly turned when the vehicle is running, the
direction correction will not be too much; when the running direction of vehicle needs to be changed
quickly, the driver can increase the input speed of steering wheel to increase the steering flow, thus
realizing the fast steering.

7.4Precautions

1. The steering gear oil cylinder works depending on the hydraulic oil supplied from the steering oil
pump driven by the engine. The vehicle shall not slide when the engine is shut down; otherwise, the
steering force will disappear and accidents may occur.
2. The vehicle shall be stopped immediately when the steering system fails due to oil pump or oil line.

1. Steering wheel 3. Hydraulic oil tank 5. Steering cylinder


2. Steering gear 4. Hydraulic Pump

Normally, the front axle is positioned via an adjusting screw and a block. It does not need any adjustment
in general unless the screw becomes loose. The adjustment method is as follows:
a) Fully tighten the positioning bolt that has been loose.
b) Fully turn the steering wheel towards the direction of bolt to be adjusted. Mark the oil cylinder in
this direction. Slowly turn the steering wheel till the oil cylinder extends by 20mm. Screw out the
positioning bolt till it contacts the block.
c) Adjust the other positioning bolt using the same method.
(2) Maintenance of steering system
a) Regularly replace the old hydraulic oil with suitable new one based on the ambient temperature.
In general, HM-46# hydraulic oil is suitable and HV-46# hydraulic oil is applicable to low
temperature and high altitude environment.
b) Fill of hydraulic oil tank: For the first filling of hydraulic oil, fill the oil till the oil level reaches the
middle position of dipstick. After the engine is started for running, supplement the oil till the oil
level reaches the middle position again. Meanwhile, check the hydraulic oil level before startup
every day, to ensure that the hydraulic oil level is in the middle of dipstick, as shown in Fig. . (In
case of filling or replacement of oil, avoid water flowing into the oil tank. Especially in rainy days,
fill oil indoors or at the place with rain shelter.)
c) Regularly (20h weekly) apply the lubricant to the oil cylinder support (pin shaft at the link joint), as
shown in Fig..

8.Brake System

8.1Operation Instructions and Principles of Brake System

The brake system of the wide-body dump truck is a double-circuit pneumatic brake system consisting of
a service brake (foot brake), a parking brake (hand brake) and a secondary brake (engine in-cylinder
brake or exhaust brake).
(1) Service brake
Service brake is a pedal-operated double-circuit pneumatic brake whose maximum working pressure is
1 MPa. The first loop acts on the first axle wheels while the second one on the intermediate/rear axle
wheels. Once the pressure of one air reservoir of the two loops drops to below 0.55 MPa, the vehicle
shall be stopped immediately to find out the causes of pressure drop. Several times of braking in a short
time may also result in pressure drop to below 0.55 MPa.
(2) Parking brake
Parking brake is an energy storage spring brake, which acts on the intermediate and rear axles through
the spring energy storage chamber on the axles. When the driver stops the vehicle, switch the hand
brake switch to the parking position to make the vehicle stay put. Only after the hand brake is released,
loop pressures of brake systems 21 and 22 are higher than 0.6 MPa (low pressure alarm light out), the
hand brake indicator light is out and the compressed gas pushes the spring back into position can the
brake be released. Hand brake can also serve as emergency brake. If the foot brake happens to fail in
case of emergency during driving, the vehicle can be braked by use of hand brake. When the service
brake is damaged and the vehicle needs dragging, the hand brake can be used as service brake to drag
the vehicle.
(3) Secondary brake
Two secondary brakes including engine in-cylinder brake and exhaust brake are provided for the vehicle.
The engine in-cylinder brake needs no manual operation because the vehicle can automatically
recognize the need to use this function and can actuate this function to realize secondary braking where
needed.
During driving down a long slope in mountainous areas, the butterfly valve on the exhaust pipe will be
closed under the action of the solenoid valve and cylinder, thus realizing engine exhaust braking. The
use of exhaust brake can reduce the use of main brakes, and the wear of tyres and wheel brakes, thus
extending their service lives.

Note that when using the engine exhaust brake: the transmission shall not be in neutral and the
clutch pedal shall not be stepped. When the engine speed is lower than 1,100 r/min, the exhaust
brake will not work. The lower the position, the better the exhaust braking effect.

Once the engine is started, the air compressor (also called inflating pump) begins to work. The high-
temperature air from the air compressor is cooled through the first air tube, and then flows to the
desiccator to remove moisture before going to the four-circuit protection valve. When the pressure
reaches the specified cracking pressure of the four-circuit protection valve, the air flows to all air
reservoirs, from there to relay valves and finally to the brake chamber to realize braking.

8.2Description of Main Important Components

8.2.1Desiccator

The desiccator not only has the function of unloading valve but also can dry the air from the air
compressor to a certain extent with a return connection as the intermediate connection. To be specific,
when the desiccator is used as an unloading valve, the vapor and oil gas in the desiccator will be
broughtto the atmosphere by the air in the air reservoir, thus realizing regeneration of desiccator. Refer

3. Channel 6. Open the check valve.

8.2.2Four-circuit Protection Valve

The four-circuit protection valve is used in multi-circuit pneumatic brake system. When one of the circuits
fails, certain safe brake air pressure can still be ensured for other circuits. The four air outlets are
independent from each other and can be used to control the rear axle, front axle, parking and secondary
circuits. The cracking pressure of the first and second circuits can be the same as or different from that of
the third and fourth circuits, but not less than the later. It can be adjusted by use of a pressure adjusting
spring.
The four output ports of the product are labeled as “21”, “22”, “23” and “24”. During installation,
corresponding tubes shall be connected according to the numerical labels (port 21 to rear axle brake
circuit; port 22 to front axle brake circuit; port 23 to secondary air circuit; port 24 left as it is). Do not make
any mistakes during installation. Otherwise, the brake system will malfunction.

8.2.3Master Brake Valve (Also Called “Foot Brake”)

During working as shown in Fig., the upper circuit outputs brake signal pressure to the relay valve to
open it, and make the compressed air in the (intermediate) rear axle brake air reservoir flow via the relay
valve to the (intermediate) rear brake chamber, putting the (intermediate) rear brake camshaft in rotation,
stretching leading and trailing shoes of the drum brake and thus realizing braking of the (intermediate)
rear axle wheels. The lower circuit outputs brake signal pressure to the relay valve to open it, and make
the compressed air in the front axle brake air reservoir flow via the relay valve to the front brake sub-
chambers on the left and right, putting the front brake camshaft in rotation, stretching leading and trailing
shoes of the drum brake and thus realizing braking of the front wheels..

Function: It can realize follow-up control of the vehicle and combination vehicle emergency brake and
parking brake, and its inspection function is used to check the slope parking ability of the vehicle when
the tractor is in parking brake state. The vehicle can be automatically returned to the driving position by
controlling the handle between the driving and parking positions and can be locked in the parking
position.

8.2.5Relay Valve

Working principles: Generally, the air inlet is connected to the air reservoir while air outlet the brake
chamber. When the brake pedal is stepped on, the output pressure of the brake valve is input as control
pressure of the relay valve under which, the intake valve is pushed open. Then the compressed air flows
directly from the air reservoir to the brake chamber via the air inlet, without passing through the brake
valve, which greatly shortens the inflating path of the brake chamber and accelerates its inflation.

8.2.7Brake Chamber

The front, intermediate and rear brake chambers of the vehicle are all of a combined type acting on the
front, intermediate and rear service brakes and realizing parking and emergency brake. The diaphragm
spring brake chamber is used to provide wheel braking force. The diaphragm chamber in the combined
spring brake chamber is used for service braking, and the spring cavity is used for parking braking and
emergency braking. The two cavities are totally independent.
Structural Diagram of Brake Chamber

P1T000130

1. Service brake port 2. Parking brake port

During service braking, the compressed air from operation of foot brake valve enters cavity A through
port 11, acts on the diaphragm d and pushes the return spring c of tray a; the spring c then pushes out
the push rod b, and the force applied on the diaphragm d acts on the brake arm through the push rod b,
generating braking torque on wheels.
During parking braking and emergency braking, operate the hand brake valve to release, in whole or in
part the compressed air in the cavity B via port 12, and the spring f releases its energy in whole or in part
accordingly, applying braking torque on wheels through piston e, diaphragm d, tray a, push rod b and
brake arm. Unscrew the release bolt g to release the parking brake. It’s a manual way to release the
brake in case of no compressed air.

8.2.8Air Reservoir
Air reservoir

P1T000131

Functions of air reservoir:


a. Energy storage
Air supply is required almost everywhere on the wide-body dump truck from sirens to brakes. Without an
air reservoir, it is far from enough to rely on air supply of the air compressor alone. In this case, the air
pumped by the air compressor needs to be stored in the air reservoir.
b. Filtration
We all know that air contains a large amount of dust and water molecules as well as engine oil pumped
in due to fault of the air compressor. Once entering the vehicle air circuits, they tend to damage vehicle
parts and components with time passing by, posing certain hazard to driving safety. The air pumped by
the air compressor will be detained temporarily in the air reservoir. As the water molecules, dust and
engine oil in the air are relatively heavier than the air, they will fall to the bottom of the air reservoir, thus
giving the air reservoir the role of a filter.
c. Pressure stabilization
When the air is pumped in the vehicle by the air compressor, upward and downward movement of the air
compressor piston result in extremely unstable compressed air in the vehicle air circuits. The air
reservoir, like a water reservoir, detains the unstable air there before letting it out through the outlet as
stable compressed air.
d. Cooling
After air is absorbed in the air compressor from the outside world, its volume will become small and
meanwhile its temperature will rise to a certain extent. A higher temperature means a relatively small
density, and thus a reduced volume of air stored. Moreover, the moisture in the air is hard to settle due to
a higher temperature. Therefore, the air must be cooled before entering the vehicle air circuits.
Generally, the following parts are installed on the air reservoir: quick-inflating connector, water discharge
valve, safety valve and air pressure sensor.
107
January 13, 2022 III. Use of Vehicle
DW90A 8. Brake System

8.3Precautions

(1) Power steering systems (clutch booster and gear shifting valve of auxiliary transmission) can be
operated after the brake lamp goes out. However, the vehicle is not yet fully ready for driving before
the air reservoir pressure reaches 0.7 MPa. Only after the air reservoir pressure reaches 0.7 MPa
can the brake reach specified braking performance.

When the vehicle is stopped, the hand brake must be pulled!

(2) Before the engine is started, the hand brake valve handle must be placed in the braking position.
Otherwise, when the brake system pressure rises, the original parking brake effect will be eliminated.

Never start the vehicle before the signal lamp goes out!

(3) To reduce brake failure and reduction of braking force caused by too hot brake shoes during
continuous stepping on the brake, it is suggested that exhaust brake should be used down a long
slope and a proper position be selected according to the gradient and length of the slope.
(4) The engine brake cannot be used as emergency brake in place of the service brake, or used as the
parking brake.
(5) The exhaust brake begins to work only when the engine speed is higher than 1,000 rpm. The high-
efficiency speed range of the exhaust brake is 1,600~22,000 r/min. To improve brake efficiency, a
proper transmission position shall be selected for use of the engine brake. Generally, the position for
going up a slope shall be selected for braking down the slope.
(6) For driving on snowy or wet pavements, emergency brake shall be used only when necessary. When
emergency brake is used, pay attention not to lock the wheels for fear of accidents caused by side
slip. Engine brake shall not be used on snowy pavements and shall be used with caution on wet
pavement.
108
III. Use of Vehicle January 13, 2022
8. Brake System DW90A

8.4Maintenance

1. Check the airtightness of the brake system.


(1) Airtightness of air circuit system: Start the compressor and stop it when the stored air pressure
reaches the maximum working pressure. Observe the duplex pressure gauge. The pressure drop
shall not exceed 0.01 Mpa within 10 min. If not, it means poor airtightness and inspection shall be
carried out.
(2) Airtightness of brake system: Shut down the motor and step on the brake pedal for 3 min. If the
pressure indicated by the white pointer of the pressure gauge remains unchanged, it means the
airtightness is reliable.
2. Maintenance
(1) The brake line airtightness shall be regularly checked to ensure that it is in good condition. Once any
bending, scratching or squashing is found, timely replacement is required.
(2) Replacement of desiccator: During the use of the air desiccator, the brake air reservoir shall be
regularly checked for ponding. If water is released from the air reservoir once the pull ring of water
discharge valve is pulled, then desiccant shall be replaced immediately. If the drying cylinder is of a
non-removable structure, then the whole drying cylinder shall be replaced. Under worse use
conditions with too much dust and foreign matters, the period of replacement shall be shorter.
Normally, the air reservoir is discharged once every month. In case water is discharged, replacement
is required.

9.Operation Instructions of Rollback Cab Lifting System DW90A

9.3Operation Precautions

(1) Maintenance operation may begin after the cab is rolled back by the oil pump to the top dead center
and it is confirmed that the cylinder limit lock hook has fallen into the limit slot and that the pump
reversing lever is in the lifting position. The vehicle may not be driven before the oil pump rolls back
the cab to the bottom dead center and lock it there.
(2) The motor being too hot may get it burned. Therefore, when the electric pump has been used
continuously for 3-5 times, the thermal protection function of the motor will be automatically actuated,
thus shutting down the motor. Please note that this is not fault and re-start the motor again after it is
cooled.
(3) When the cab rollback mechanism is used, the vehicle shall be stopped on a level ground. Please
start the parking controller, switch to the neutral position and fix objects in the cab.
(4) Do not begin maintenance before the cab is rolled back to the top or pawl of the limit lock hook of the
cab rollback cylinder enters the limit slot. Where the cab cannot be dropped or can only be dropped
slowly after being kept in a rollback state for a long time, as the oil cylinder limit pawl is locked, the oil
pump handle needs to be switched to the “lifting” position and pressed several times to release the
pawl from the pawl slot; then the oil pump handle needs to be switched to the “dropped” position and
pressed several times to drop the cab. Dropping the cab by forceful pressing will result in damage of
the limit mechanism or breakage of the piston rod and other dangers.

9.4Maintenance

(1) During vehicle assembling, after the oil cylinder and oil pump are installed in place and before oil
pipes and the lifting controller are connected, please make sure to fill 10# aviation hydraulic oil (for
ground use) in the oil tank. Before doing so, the oil shall be filtered through a 200-mesh or above
stainless steel filter screen. Directly rotating the rocker or starting the lifting controller before oil is
filled in the tank will result in entry of air into the electric pump, thus leading to slow rollback, lifting
and dropping of the cab. After the oil pump pipes are connected, rotate the oil pump rocker to when
oil flows out from corresponding oil pipe (to release the air in the oil pipe) and then connect the oil
pipe to corresponding oil cylinder pipe joint according to the schematic diagram.
(2) The intake and exhaust plugs on the oil tank can automatically intake and vent air, and discharge
excess oil. Therefore, oil discharge from the intake and exhaust plugs does not mean oil leakage.

10.1Overview of Vehicle Axles

The front axle of the DW90A non-road wide-body dump truck is a steering axle with a straight beam
structure, and the intermediate and rear axles are two-stage reduction drive axles. As the main
components of the vehicle, axles are mainly used to bear various forces from the pavements and vehicle
frame. The drive axles are used to increase the torque and drive the whole vehicle. Drive axles have a
casting housing and are equipped with inter-wheel and -axle differentials as well as inter-axle differential
locks.

10.2 Use of Vehicle Axles

Whether the parts and components of the vehicle axles can work normally depends in a large degree
whether they are reasonably used, maintained and repaired. To help you reasonably and fully use and
carefully maintain and repair the product so as to keep it in good condition and expand its service life,
some basics are provided for your reference:

10.2.1Connection of Rim To Axle

The rim nut specification is M 24×1.5 and its tightening torque is 780-880 N.m. The rim nuts must be
tightened in pairs and symmetrically. During normal use, the nuts shall be frequently checked for
looseness, and shall be timely tightened when found loose.
Notes:
a. Avoid damaging wheel bolt threads. No paint, lubricating grease or other dirt is allowed to stick on
the fitting surface of the brake drum and the rim, or the wheel nut pressing surface.
b. Apply some lubricating grease, engine oil or other anti-jamming agents on the wheel bolt and nut
threads before installation.
c. Re-tighten the wheel nuts after a 50 km drive every time the wheels are re-assembled.

10.2.2Use of Inter-axle Differential Lock

The inter-axle differential lock is a mechanism used to ensure synchronous running of the two drive
wheels so that although one drive shaft slips when the vehicle is running on complicated pavements, the
other one can still provide drive force. When the vehicle is driving on good pavements, the inter-axle
differential lock shall be disconnected.
To use the inter-axle differential lock for driving on muddy or poor pavements, step on the clutch when
the vehicle is stopped and then press the rocker switch of the inter-axle differential lock on the
instrument panel of the cab; meanwhile set the transmission in low-speed position and engage the
clutch.

The differential lock must be used when the vehicle is stopped, and must never be used when the
vehicle is driving normally or taking turns! When the vehicle is driving out of muddy pavements,
the inter-axle differential lock switch shall be immediately disconnected to avoid damage to the
differential.
119
January 13, 2022 III. Use of Vehicle
DW90A 10. Vehicle Axle and Tyre Systems

Notes:
The clutch must be disengaged before the inter-axle differential lock is engaged. To engage the inter-
axle differential lock, use the rocker switch when the vehicle is stopped and the indicator light shall go on
when the differential lock is engaged.
a. To pass in poor road conditions, the inter-axle differential lock shall be disengaged. If the indicator
light remains on after that, stop the vehicle and find out the causes and continue driving only after
it is confirmed that the inter-axle differential lock has been disengaged.
b. To ensure the vehicle has good passing capacity, inter-axle differential lock engagement shall be
regularly checked. To be specific, carry out level-II maintenance and overall inspection for a drive
of 10,000 km each time.

10.2.3Use and Maintenance

a. Wash away oil stain, dirt and dust regularly. In particular, keep the breather plugs unblocked.
Check tightening of all parts, especially the main reducer, hub brake and rim bolts and timely
tighten them when they are found loose.
b. Regularly check leakage of all parts and timely repair and eliminate the fault. Check the lubricating
oil level of the main reducer and the hub assembly and fill in oil timely to reach the required oil
level, thus ensuring normal operation.
c. The clearance between the friction plate and the brake drum inner round surface is generally 0.7-
1.2 mm and can be adjusted by use of the adjustment mechanism on the brake arm.
d. No oil stain or foreign matters are allowed on the brake friction surface so as to ensure normal
braking.

Bearing capacity 11150KG 7000KG
14.00R25 1.0-1.15
Air pressure 1.1 MPa 0.95 MPa

1. Air pressures in the above table are recommended for use in the vehicle mine area. If the
user’s inflation pressure exceeds this range, resulting in relevant faults, the user shall assume
responsibilities alone.
2. The above instructions are only applicable to original tyres of the vehicle when the vehicle is
delivered out of factory. For tyres of other brands purchased by the user, please carry out
operation according to relevant instructions.
3. Before inflation, lower the tyre temperature and check the tyres, rims and inflating valves.
During inflation, the tyre shall be put in a safety cage to prevent personal injury caused by tyre
explosion.

Pay attention to the following aspects during tyre inflation:


1. Check with a pressure gauge whether tyre pressure meets specified requirements. If not, inflation is
required.
2. Check whether any foreign matters hang on the tyre surface. If yes, remove them.
3. Check the depth of tread pattern. If it is less than 5 mm, the tyre must be replaced. During
measurement, select at least six measuring points along the tyre circumference.
4. Check for cuts, looseness and chipping of tread cap and sidewall. Where the loose tread cap or
sidewall length exceeds 30 cm, the shoulder chipping area is greater than 200 cm2 and the cut is
larger than 25 cm, the tyre is deemed scrapped and shall be timely replaced.
127
January 13, 2022 III. Use of Vehicle

10.6Use of Tyre

Pay attention to the following aspects for use of tyres in the mine area:
1. During driving, try to avoid sudden startup or braking and lower the speed when making a turn.
2. Try to avoid overloading and uneven loading which will result in overloading of wheels on one side.
3. While driving in the loading area or on transport roads, avoid road shoulders and sharp stones, and
raised and sunken parts of pavements so as to prevent scratches, impacts and other damages.
4. The driver shall regularly check the use of tyres and check for abnormal damage of tyres and rims.
5. To extend the tyre service life, tyre rotation is required according to specified method after a drive of
4,000-5,000 km each time.

During vehicle running, the maximum vehicle speed shall not exceed 50 km/h. Otherwise, tyres
tend to suffer such damages as tread loosening and bulging due to the heat generated.

10.7Tyre Rotation and Maintenance

10.7.1Pay attention to the following aspects for tyre rotation. Carry out tyre rotation according to vehicle
use conditions and regular maintenance periods. Nevertheless immediate tyre rotation is required where
the existence of abnormal wear traces is confirmed. Refer to Fig. for tyre rotation method.

1. Front tyres shall be of the same model with few damages and little wear (remaining tread
pattern depth greater than 20 mm) where possible.
2. The outer diameter difference of two tyres assembled in parallel shall not be greater than 12
mm and the one with smaller outer diameter shall be installed on the inner side.
3. Where there are marks of rotation directions on the tyres (directional tread pattern), install the
tyres according to the directions marked.
4. Tyres of the same specification and tread pattern must be installed on the same axle.
Otherwise, such problems as braking deviation, abnormal body shaking and uncontrolled
steering will be caused.
5. New tyres must be used in pairs.
6. Check the threads of the hub bolts and wheel nuts for scratches. For the sake of safety, if the
thread is damaged on either side, the pair as a whole must be replaced.
7. Check the rim contact surface and mounting holes for deformation and damage. If any, replace
the rim.
8. Check the rim for cracks. If any, timely replace it.
9. Deflation is required before a tyre is removed to ensure safety.

11.1.2 Descriptions of Front Leaf Spring

DW90A is of a structure with an enhanced longitudinal front plate spring and main auxiliary spring. The
leaf spring configuration has undergone strict vehicle performance check and shall not be changed
without authorization; otherwise it may lead to inconsistent movements with other systems and cause
the vehicle to lose control, resulting in unnecessary personal injury and property loss.

11.1.3Fault Diagnosis

The failure of the front suspension system is related to many systems, including steering mechanism,
front axle, wheel and brake. In case of any abnormality (abnormal sound, deviation, vibration and
abnormal damage) during the process of driving, the vehicle shall be stopped immediately for a
comprehensive inspection, and any related items below shall be checked:
a. Whether the suspension parts are damaged or loose (e.g., leaf spring breakage and looseness of
relevant bolts);
b. Whether each support connection gets loosened;
c. If the lubrication fails, please apply lubricating grease in time;
d. Whether the tire pressure is normal;
e. Whether the tire wear is uniform and whether the tire is damaged;
f. Whether the steering parts (e.g., tie rod ball joint) have abrasion and looseness
g. Whether the alignment of front axles and wheels has a deviation.

11.1.4Repair and Maintenance

a. If the leaf spring and clamp are damaged, they shall be replaced in time. Overloading and poor
road conditions will make these parts more vulnerable to damage. Once damaged parts are found,
they shall be replaced or repaired in a timely manner. Otherwise, serious accidents will occur.
b. The leaf spring pin (as indicated by 10 in Fig. 11-1) shall be checked and lubricated in a timely
manner. If the bolt sheath is seriously worn, please replace it in time.
c. For U-shaped bolts and nuts, and center bolts of leaf spring, they shall be re-tightened according
to torque requirements every 2,000 km.
d. If the stop block is damaged or lost, please replace it in time. Otherwise axles will jump too much
in bad road conditions, resulting in accelerated fracture of the leaf spring.
e. If the abrasion loss of wear-resistant block exceeds 50% of the total thickness or the wear-
resistant block falls off, it shall be replaced in time. Otherwise, the leaf spring seat will be damaged
and its service life will be shortened.

11.2 Rear Suspension System

11.2.3.3Repair and Maintenance of Balanced Suspension Assembly

11.2.3.3.1Key Points for Repair and Maintenance

(1) Before driving the new vehicle, check the fastening of the bolts at the connection of the balanced
suspension assembly.
● Check the tightening of all bolts at the balanced suspension assembly, especially that of 8 locknuts
on the U-shaped bolts of the suspension. Since the locknut requires a high tightening torque (up to
about 1800 N.m), it is necessary to use a lengthening bar to tighten it. A tightening machine is
preferred. It is required that the middle part of the plate spring should be flattened and put against the
balance shaft casing. A simple judgment method is that there is no obvious gap between the top
plate spring and the cover plate (especially both ends of the cover plate). If the extremely thick nut
can be tightened under a heavy load, the effect will be better.
● Check whether the M18x1.5 bolts (28 in total) connecting the support and the middle support seat
are loose. If so, they shall be tightened as required, and the tightening torque shall be 380-450 N.m.
(2) During running-in process of a new vehicle, it is necessary to tighten U-shaped bolts and nuts of the
support, middle support seat and plate spring, and re-tighten corresponding bolts and nuts 2-3 times
every driving distance of about 200-300 km. Only in this way, can the bolts and nuts be tightened.
138
III. Use of Vehicle January 13, 2022
11.Maintenance and Service of Suspension System DW90A

(3) After running-in of the new vehicle, it is necessary to check the bearing clearance (0.1-0.3mm) once
and adjust it. Then, remove the end cap of the balance shaft, loosen locknut bolts and use a fork
spanner with an opening of 120mm to tighten the locknut bolts. After cleaning the junction surface,
install end cover of the balance shaft and tighten the bolts. Detailed operation methods are shown in
11.2.3.2 Disassembly, Installation and Adjustment of Balanced Suspension Assembly. In particular,
when the shaft sealing ring does not fail, the balance shaft casing is suggested not to be removed, so
as to prevent the damage to the shaft sealing ring during the removal process.
(4) When the new vehicle is put into normal use after running-in, the bolts and nuts shall be tightened
again according to the above method 1 every driving distance of 1,500-2,000 km.
(5) All bolts and nuts of the balanced suspension assembly shall be checked once during maintenance
of the vehicle after a driving distance of 5000 km, and the lubricating oil 85w-90 (GL-5 heavy-duty
gear oil) shall be added through the oil filler of the balance shaft casing, with filling quantity of 2.4L. In
the future, maintenance shall be conducted once every 5,000 km. If the road condition is bad, the
interval mileage should be correspondingly shortened to ensure that your vehicle is always in a good
working condition.

11.2.3.3.2Replacement of Lubricating Oil

(1) The steps for disassembly, installation and adjustment of the balanced suspension assembly in
11.2.3.3 shall be followed.
(2) Remove the shaft casing:
(3) Check oil seal:
The oil seal must be replaced if the following are found:
● Uneven abrasion
● Internal frame springs fail or become weak
● Bending and deformation
● Scratching and trimming
● Crack and deterioration
(4) Check whether the bearing has cracks or is damaged:
(5) From a perspective of preventive maintenance, some parts within the repair or wear limit shall be
replaced before they exceed such a limit.
(6) The disassembled parts may be stained with greasy dirt and sludge. Kerosene shall be used to clean
the parts after reassembly. Cleaning parts is a necessary process.
(7) Reassemble balanced suspension assembly a according to the steps for disassembly, installation
and adjustment. Finally, add specified type and dose of lubricating oil from the oil filling port as
required.

11.2.3.6.1Seepage and Oil Leakage of Balanced Suspension Assembly and Cause Analysis

Since frequent replacement of the assembly is caused by oil seepage and leakage of the balanced
suspension assembly, then the following are provided to reduce repair cost, eliminate oil seepage and
leakage in a timely manner and locate the cause, as well as give precautions for replacement:
140
III. Use of Vehicle January 13, 2022
11.Maintenance and Service of Suspension System DW90A

1. If a timely maintained fails to be conducted according to the requirements of 11.2.3.3 Repair and
Maintenance of Balanced Suspension Assembly, the balance shaft casing will be deformed under a
heavy load, leading to failure of shaft sealing ring, clearance at the joint between the balance shaft
casing cover and balance shaft casing and stretched bolts. In a serious case, the balance shaft
casing cover will be broken, thus resulting in oil seepage and leakage from the inner side and the
outer side of the balance shaft casing.
2. In the case of a poor road condition, the impurities such as water and sediment generated in the
operation of the vehicle will make the shaft seal ring (oil seal) fail, and the sealant at the balance
shaft casing cover will have accelerated aging, which can also cause failure, oil seepage and
leakage.
3. If daily maintenance is not conducted in a timely manner, 2--M80x2 nuts (or 12-M16X1.5 bolts) on
both ends of the balance shaft assembly during the overloading process will get loosened normally,
which will increase the fit clearance inside the balance shaft casing, resulting in leaping of indirect
parts, failure of shaft sealing ring, clearance between the balance shaft casing cover and balance
shaft casing, and oil seepage and leakage.
4. Treatment of oil seepage and leakage
a. The maintainable of balanced suspension assembly shall be conducted by strictly following the
routine maintenance regulations in 11.2.3.3 Balanced Suspension Assembly Repair and
Maintenance. GL-5 and 80W-90 heavy-duty gear oil shall be added into the balance shaft casing
every driving distance of 2,500~3,500 km and the torque of bolts at each part of the balance shaft
assembly shall be checked. See 11.2.3.5 for main maintenance parameters.
b. In case of the oil seepage and leakage
at the balance shaft casing cover and balance shaft casing seal, it is suggested that the balance shaft
casing cover should be removed. The balance shaft casing cover shall be checked carefully for cracks. If
any, the balance shaft casing cover shall be replaced directly. The 12-M16X1.5 bolt shall be tightened
according to the requirements for torque. After the lock washer is locked, the outer end face of the
balance shaft casing shall be cleaned. Silicone sealant HZ1213 shall be applied evenly on the fitting
surface or rubber gaskets shall be added on both fitting surfaces. After that, 8-M8 bolt shall be tightened
and the stress is required to be uniform, i.e., fastening bolts shall be crossed.
c. If the shaft sealing ring has failed when interior lateral seepage occurs in the inner side of the
balance shaft shell, then the shaft sealing ring shall be replaced. The detailed steps are shown in
11.2.3.2 Disassembly, Installation and Adjustment of Balanced Suspension Assembly.

11.2.3.6.2Bearing Cracking and Cause Analysis

1. If the lubricating oil fails to be added and replaced in a timely manner according to the requirements
of 11.2.3.3 Repair and Maintenance of Balanced Suspension Assembly, when the vehicle is
overloaded, dry friction of the bearing will lead to over-burning, which may result in breakage.
2. If the bearing clearance fails to be adjusted and the bearing locking bolts or nuts fail to be checked
and tightened according to the requirements of 11.2.3.3 Repair and Maintenance of Balanced
Suspension Assembly, when the vehicle is overloaded, the clearance between bearings may
increase and axial displacement of the bearing will intensify, and the bearing will have local stress,
leading to bearing breakage.
3. Treatment of bearing breakage: In case of bearing breakage, it must be replaced for whatever
reason. The detailed steps are shown in 11.2.3.2 Disassembly, Installation and Adjustment of
Balanced Suspension Assembly.

11.2.3.6.3Cracks and Fracture of Support and Cause Analysis

1. If the connecting bolts of the support and frame fail to be checked and fastened in a timely manner
according to the requirements of the 11.2.3.3 Repair and Maintenance of Balanced Suspension
Assembly, when the vehicle is overloaded, the frame will have a severe stress condition, leading to
cracks of the support.
2. Treatment of crack and fracture of the support
a. Replace one set of balance shaft assembly.
b. If conditions permit, knocked down can be conducted by following the steps below:
● Steps for drilling with a combination of the support and balance shaft:
1. Apply efficient cleaning agent (Loctite) evenly to the joint between the balance shaft and support to
clean it.
2. Coat the cleaned joint evenly with sufficient Retaining Compound Adhesives (Loctite 680).
3. Apply a layer of accelerator (Loctite) on the surface with retaining compound.
4. Push two supports inward quickly to the root of the balance shaft and place the back surfaces of the
two supports of the component on two planes with an equal height to ensure the back surfaces of the
two supports are in the same plane. The bend position of the balance shaft shall deflect 15°from the
underside of the support. There shall be no clearance at the joint between the support and the
balance shaft, otherwise, subsequent installation will be affected.
5. After 30-minute curing of the balance shaft and support, turn their combination by 180°to ensure the
drilling surface is aligned with the undersides. After that, press them tightly and drill pin holes
according to the location and size of the figure.
6. After cleaning iron filings with high-pressure blast, apply enough Retaining Compound Adhesives
(Loctite 680), and then install two cylinder pins.

Notes:

1. The fitting surface must be cleaned without any damage, sharp burr, grease and other factors not
conducive to assembly.
2. After accelerant is sprayed to the adhesive, assembly and placing shall be carried out quickly.
Otherwise, the retaining compound will be solidified soon, bringing difficulties for assembly. If
retaining compound is applied but accelerant is not sprayed on a component, it has to be put on a
platform for 24 hours until the retaining compound is totally dry. Then, further drilling can be
conducted.
3. The two undersides of the support must be in the same plane, otherwise, it is not conducive to
installation of components and frame.
4. After drilling of the combination, the size of each installation hole shall be checked in a timely
manner.

11.2.4 Repair and Maintenance of Rear Suspension

a. Suspension is an important part of the vehicle bearing system, so it shall be replaced in time when
damaged. Overloading and poor road conditions will make such parts more vulnerable to be
damaged. Once damaged parts are found, they shall be replaced or repaired in a timely manner.
Otherwise, serious accidents will occur.
b. The following parts shall be checked regularly: the upper and lower thrust bars and their
connecting bolts shall be checked for damage and looseness; the stop block shall be checked to
see if it falls off; whether the leaf spring has fragments or dislocation or whether its pressing plate
has cracks.
c. For U-shaped bolts and nuts, and the bolts and nuts of thrust bar, they shall be re-tightened
according to torque requirements every 2,000 km.
d. Lubricating grease shall be applied to the part between the leaf spring and the sliding plate every
10 hours, and the gap between the guiding wear-resisting plate and the leaf spring shall be
adjusted by an adjustment plate. The correct gap shall be no more than 2mm.
e. The normal life of the guide wear-resistant plate and the door-shape frame sliding plate seat on
the axle is half a year. If the wearing loss exceeds 30% of the total thickness, replacement shall be
made in time.
f. The repair and maintenance of balanced suspension is shown in 11.2.3.3.
g. After each replacement of suspension parts, the center distance on left and right sides of the
middle and rear axles shall be checked and measured to see if there is an error. If any, a correction
shall be made.

a. The number and thickness of leaf springs are forbidden to be changed at will. Change of the
suspension structure is not allowed either. It is forbidden to use the thrust bar, slide seat, guide
plate and other parts not approved by the company.
b. When the shaft sealing ring does not fail, the balance shaft casing is suggested not to be
removed, so as to prevent the damage to the shaft sealing ring during the removal process.

Introduction to operating principle: When the driver operates pneumatic control valve 8, gas will go into
the lifting valve 2 to control its element to move leftwards and rightwards, achieving dump body lifting,
holding and lowering. When the driver operates the pneumatic control valve 8 to the lifting position, gas
will enter the right position of lifting valve 2 , and the confluent high-pressure oil of oil pump 3 and
steering pressure-gradient control valve will flow into the lifting valve 2. Through the right position of the
lifting valve 2, oil will enter the lifting cylinder 1, thus lifting the dump body. When the driver operates the
pneumatic control valve 8 to the lowering position, the control gas will enter the left position of the lifting
valve 2; the oil from lifting cylinder 1 and pump 3 returns back to oil tank 5 from the lifting valve 2, thus
lowering the dump body. When the driver operates the pneumatic control valve 8 to a holding position,
there is no gas from the pneumatic control valve 8 to lifting valve 2. The lifting valve 2 will return to the
middle under the spring force, realizing the holding action of lifting cylinder 1.

The limit valve is installed at the bottom of the lifting cylinder.


Connection and disconnection of the gas circuit are controlled through the pneumatic control valve.
When gear pump works, hydraulic oil is pumped into the lifting cylinder by the lifting valve, thus lifting the
dump body. When the dump body is lifted to the position of the maximum design angle, the adjusting bolt
of the pneumatic control valve will cut off the gas circuit when it touches the stop block, making the lifting
valve return to the middle position and lifting stop. It can effectively prevent the cylinder from being lifted
to the limit position, damaging the oil cylinder and causing impact.

DW90A 12.Dump Body Lifting System

12.2.6.1The hydraulic oil tank is installed between the right-side cab and the dump body.
12.2.6.2Oil return filter: Filtering oil to ensure cleanliness of oil.
12.2.6.3Air filter: The change in the tank level will allow the air in the tank to be exchanged with outside,
and the air filter can filter the air to prevent external pollutants from entering the tank.

Please keep clean the filter element during installation and replacement to prevent dust from
contaminating the filter.

12.3.Lifting Steps

12.3.1Lifting

Make the dump body lifting/lowering switch move backward, i.e., in the "lifting position", and the lifting
cylinder will gradually rise to jack up the dump body. When the dump body tips to the limit angle, lifting
will automatically stop.
During the lifting process, the engine speed is not greater than 2,100 RPM, and the optimal speed is
1,200~1,600 RPM. If the engine speed is too fast, it will not be conducive to oil supply of the pump, and
insufficient oil supply will cause damage to the oil cylinder and pump.

When lifting is conducted, the vehicle must be stopped on a level and solid road. When the dump
body is lifted, it must be confirmed that the vehicle is in neutral and the hand brake is in the
braking position.

12.3.2Lifting Suspension

When the dump body is lifted to any position, if the "dump body lifting/lowering switch" is pushed back to
the middle position, then the dump body can be parked at any position.

12.3.3Lowering Operation

Slowly pull forward the "dump body lifting/lower switch" to make it stay in the "lowering" position, and the
dump body will drop under the action of self-weight.

Please wait for about 15s when the dump body drops to the frame before putting the “dump body
lifting/lowering switch” to the middle position. Only when the “dump body lifting/lowering
switch” is put in the middle position, can the vehicle be started. Otherwise, damage of hydraulic
components will occur. The control lever shall not be used in high-gear position area and at a
reverse gear.

12.3.4Lowering Suspension

When the dump body is lowered to any position, if the "dump body lifting/lowering switch" is pushed back
to the middle position, then the dump body can be parked at any position.

12.4Precautions

12.4.1 Warning: In case of filling or replacement of oil, avoid water flowing into the oil tank. Especially in
rainy days, fill oil indoors or at the place with rain shelter
12.4.2 Warning: All removed sealing elements, such as O-shaped ring, oil seal and sealing washer must
be replaced and not be reused.
12.4.3 Warning: Before startup of the gear pump, especially in cold regions and seasons, low-speed
inching without load shall be conducted first. Before each operation, the pump shall be idled for 10-30
minutes. Check whether the gear pump rotates smoothly and steadily; whether there is abnormal noise,
oil leakage and air admission; whether the system has vibration and impact.

12.5Maintenance and Servicing

12.5.1For the first filling of hydraulic oil, fill the oil till the oil level reaches the middle position of dipstick.
After the engine is started, supplement the oil till the oil level reaches the middle position again.
Meanwhile, check the hydraulic oil level before startup every day, to ensure that the hydraulic oil level is
in the middle of dipstick.
12.5.2.During the process of driving, put the pneumatic control valve in the middle position and it is
forbidden to lift the dump body.
12.5.3.The oil cylinder shall not be in the lifting state for a long time, and the dump body shall be put
down when the engine stops for a long time, so as to ensure that the cylinder is in the recovery state. In
this way, the cylinder piston rod can be prevented from the damage from the external environment. And
hydraulic oil level can be checked easily next day.
12.5.4.High-pressure oil pipes shall be replaced periodically (every two years) to avoid the risk of aging
and blasting.
12.5.5.Hydraulic oil: L-HM46# anti-wear hydraulic oil is recommended for general areas; low-
temperature L-HV46# hydraulic oil is recommended for cold and plateau sections; for grades of
hydraulic oil for other special areas, please consult the manufacturer.
12.5.6.Regularly (20h weekly) apply the lubricant to the oil cylinder support (pin shaft at the link joint), as
shown in Fig.
12.5.7.Oil drainage of hydraulic oil tank: Turn off the engine, unscrew the drain plug at the bottom of the
hydraulic oil tank to discharge the hydraulic oil, and use a container to collect it.
12.5.8When the dump body is lifted for maintenance of components under it, its support rod must be
lowered to the position allowing safe support. After maintenance, the support rod must be restored to its
original position.

leakage, or the alternator can not charge; all these reasons could lead to an abnormal battery charge
and result in an electricity insufficiency or even can not start the machine. Recharge the battery if this
happens.

Charge the battery to let it work normally if the above-mentioned phenomenon happens.

1. Check the outlook of the battery before charging

(1) Do not charge the battery if the battery housing cracks or there is an acid leakage. Check the reason
and replace with a new one.
(2) Do not charge the battery if the battery terminal cracks. Check the reason and replace with a new
one.
(3) Do not charge the battery if it is distensible by over-charging or over-discharging. Replace with a new
one.

2. Battery charging

Measure the battery voltage before charging. The battery voltages can be divided into several levels, if
the difference of battery voltages is within 0.2V, the batteries can be connected in series and charged
together. Check the battery terminal voltage after finishing charging for 12 hours. The voltage shouldn’t
be lower than 12.8V (shouldn’t be lower than 25.6V if two batteries are measured in series), otherwise
recharge the battery.

Wear safety goggles when charging.


Keep ventilated when charging. Charge the battery under normal temperature.
Do not smoke when charging the battery, keep any kindling away.
The battery could have an explosion danger if it is deposed improperly when charging.

When removing a battery with low power before charging, first disconnecting the negative
terminal of the battery.
Check the terminals for cleanness before charging, the oxide layer of terminal surface should be
removed.
The battery temperature shouldn’t exceed 45°C.

(1) Turn the start switch to OFF position and take out the key, and then turn the disconnect switch to
OFF position.

(2) Clean the battery terminals and surface with a clean cloth, remove the oxidation surface.
(3) Remove the battery from the machine. When removing, first disconnecting the negative terminal of
the battery, and then the positive terminal.
(4) Connect the cables after finishing charging. Connect the positive cable first.

When connecting the battery, first connect its positive terminal; when disconnecting the battery,
first disconnect its negative terminal.

(5) Connect the positive clamp of the charger to the positive terminal of the battery, the negative clamp
to the negative terminal under room temperature.
(6) In general, the battery can be charged by constant voltage and constant current. Constant voltage
charging can satisfy battery recharging in most cases, so it is recommended to charge battery with a
constant voltage. It is easy to over charge a battery by constant current if the current is too high, and
damage the battery. Voltage setting: use a simple charger of 12V to charge one battery, the voltage
should be set at 14.5V-15V. Use a simple charger of 24V to charge two batteries at the same time,
the voltage should be set at 29~30V.
(7) Table of charge time and battery voltage for reference (lower current means a longer charging time).

● Check the hydrometer color after finishing charging. Green hydrometer indicates that the battery is
fully charged.
● If the hydrometer is black, check the cable connection and connecting points. Charge the battery
again according to the above table until the hydrometer is green.
● If the hydrometer lost color, bubbles might exist in the hydrometer. Shake the battery slightly to
remove the bubbles. If the hydrometer still lost color, then electrolyte is lost seriously, discard the
battery and replace with a new one.

(8) As for a battery with a voltage under 11.0VDC, it may not be able to be charged at the beginning.
Due to the serious insufficiency of electricity, the proportion of vitriol is close to water, therefore, the
battery resistance is higher. The vitriol proportion increases during recharge and the circuit can get
right gradually.

Fix the two terminals tightly. Do not charge the battery of 24VDC voltage in serial connection.
Stop charging immediately to check the reason if the battery discharge hole spurts acid during
the charging process.

(9) Stop charging if the battery temperature exceeds 45°C during the charging process. Halve the circuit
before recharging after the battery temperature drops to the ambient temperature.
(10)Check the battery voltage 12 hours after finished charging or carried out discharging operation
once. If the battery voltage dropped over 0.5V within 12-24 hours, replace the battery directly to
avoid empty voltage of the battery.
(11)It is recommended applying vaseline on the battery terminals to avoid electric corrosion after charge
is completed.
Charge the battery according to the following method when the battery voltage is low, but the machine
still can be started and alternator works normally.
(1) Start the engine, and ensure that the battery charging system is in normal (observe the battery
voltage through gauge), keep the engine speed at second gear to charge the battery until it is fully
charged.
(2) Turn off the A/C, radio, lights (except night) and other high-power electric equipment during battery
charging.
(3) Avoid starting the machine frequently as far as possible during battery charging. If restart is
necessary, it is recommended to restart the machine after finishing charging the battery.

13.2.3Battery--Store/ Service

1. Turn off the battery disconnect switch when storing the batteries being installed on a machine, and
check the battery voltage state at least every other month.
2. For the machine needs to be stored over 30 days, the batteries should be removed and managed
together. Check the battery voltage once every 30 days. Recharge the battery in time if its voltage is
lower than 12.5V (lower than 25V if two batteries are measured in series).
3. For the machine needs to be stored less than 30 days, disconnect the battery disconnect switch.
Check the battery voltage once over 15 days to ensure that the battery voltage is above 12.5V.
4. As for the machine which has not disconnected the battery terminals, check the battery voltage state
every month. Recharge if the battery lacks for electricity. Recharge according to special procedures.
5. As for the machine which is stored over one year, replace with a new battery and dispose the old one
if the above- mentioned requirements can not be followed.

13.4 Common Faults and Troubleshooting

Faults in electrical systems are usually caused by abnormal operation of electrical components. The
steps below can be followed for inspection:
(1) Voltage measurement: Use a multimeter to measure the wiring harness connector to see if it has a
voltage of 24V. If does, check the component or replace it. If not, go to step (2).
(2) Check the fuse and open the central control box to check whether the corresponding fuse and relay
are damaged. If so, a replacement shall be made. If they still fail to work normally after replacement,
turn to step (3);
(3) Use a multimeter to measure whether there is any electricity in the wire, from the wiring harness to
the upper connector. If any, it indicates that there is a fault of the wire from the connector to the
component. Then, troubleshooting shall be conducted. If no, then continue to check the connector.
(4) Find out the fault area of wiring harness and conduct troubleshooting.
Common fault cause:
(1) Poor contact of connector leads to circuit break; solution: reconnect the connector.
(2) Water ingress of connector leads to short circuit; solution: dry the moisture and take connector
protection measures again.
(3) The wire harness is squeezed, causing the wires to break and overlap with each other; or the wires
are broken, resulting in a short circuit; solution: If extrusion marks are found on the outer surface of
the wire harness, it is necessary to strip off the bellows to check the integrity of the wires, and replace
the damaged or broken ones in time.
