SA-YQ-80 Manual
SA-YQ-80 Manual
The SA-YQ-80 Hydraulic Tractor is one of the earliest tractor models produced by our
company, primarily designed for the construction of 330kV and below transmission lines.
Additionally, it can also be used in conjunction with ultra-high voltage transmission line
construction projects of 500kV and above for the laying of traction ropes. Compared to the
SA-YQ-50 or similar equipment, it boasts a wider range of applications. Especially in
situations where the traction force frequently exceeds 40kN, the SA-YQ-80 exhibits superior
performance due to its greater operational margin, resulting in faster traction speed and
enhanced reliability. The SA-YQ-80 adopts a single-axle trailer structure, making the overall
machine compact.
Our SA-YQ-80 tractor stands out for its high reserve power, compact structure, convenient
operation, and excellent safety and reliability. The hydraulic system employs threaded
cartridge valves, maximizing system efficiency, integration, and reliability. It adopts a
proportional control method to achieve electronic control of the entire machine, ensuring
convenient and comfortable operation.
It's worth noting that the SA-YQ-80 is a tractor equipped with an intelligent control system.
Its control system is centered around the MC-050 processor from Danfoss, paired with the
DM430E color display also from Danfoss. Coupled with an electronically controlled diesel
engine from Weichai, the basic control system is formed through a bus connection. Combined
with high-performance components like the original cartridge valve block system, the overall
technology and performance of the equipment have been significantly enhanced.
All critical parameters or statuses of the SA-YQ-80 can be digitally displayed on the monitor,
achieving complete constant speed control and tail rope pressure loss protection. The preset
traction force and real-time traction speed can be simultaneously and intuitively displayed. In
case of control system failures, it accurately indicates the fault conditions, surpassing the
capabilities of traditional tractors.
The SA-YQ-80 is equipped with a remote control port that can be connected to our standard
control device via a control cable, enabling remote or centralized remote control, further
enhancing its performance and versatility.
Moreover, as we continually gather experience from practical use, the control software
(programming) for the processor and display will undergo continuous updates. These updated
software versions can not only be directly applied to newly manufactured equipment but can
also easily upgrade the software of already-shipped devices, thereby improving their
performance.
With the continuous advancement of the equipment, its safety and reliability have been
steadily improved. However, on the other hand, the increasing utilization of the equipment
makes it crucial to use and maintain it properly. Improper use or maintenance during
prolonged and frequent operation can compromise the equipment's integrity, potentially
leading to significant losses due to project delays. Therefore, operators are required to
carefully read the equipment's operating manual, ensuring correct usage while performing
necessary maintenance on time. This is the only way to maximize the equipment's integrity
and performance.
2. Performance Parameters
When the main power switch is turned on, the display lights up and first shows the company's
welcome screen for approximately 3 seconds before entering the main screen. The main data
of the traction machine is displayed on this screen.
Below the display are 4 buttons. While on the main screen, pressing the first button will
switch the screen to the "Pay-off Mileage Setting" screen. Pressing the "Count/Reset" (third
button) will record or reset the pay-off mileage. Pressing the "Return" (first button) will return
the screen to the main screen.
While on the main screen, pressing the second button will switch the screen to the "Diesel
Engine Main Parameters" screen.
When a fault occurs with the diesel engine, simple troubleshooting can be performed based on
the fault conditions found in the attachments. If necessary, please contact our company's
after-sales service directly or call Weichai's after-sales service hotline at 400-6183066.
Note: Users must be cautious when dealing with any contact information provided, as there is
a risk of network fraud and malicious phone calls. Always verify the authenticity and
legitimacy of any contact information before proceeding.
There is a "Main Power Switch" used for turning on and off the electrical system. The power
switch is a two-position switch. When moved to the "Power On" position, it is in the on state.
When moved to the "Power Off" position, it is turned off.
Before using the equipment, the power switch should be switched to "Power On". The power
switch can be turned off when the equipment is not in use for a long time.
It is strictly prohibited to turn off the power switch during normal use of the equipment.
The start key is used to start, run, and stop the diesel engine. To start the engine, move the
start key from the vertical position to the right by one position, which is the "Energized"
position. At this point, the main bus instrumentation will light up, and the diesel engine will
be in a state of readiness for starting. Continue to move the key clockwise by one position,
and the starting motor will engage, initiating the starting of the diesel engine. Immediately
release the key once the engine has started successfully.
The "Jacket Water Heating" switch is primarily used to heat the engine's antifreeze. In high
altitude or low-temperature environments, when the start key is in the "Run" position, press
the "Jacket Water Heating" switch to initiate heating. The heating time should be determined
based on actual conditions, as specified in the jacket water heating instructions.
After heating is complete, turn off the "Jacket Water Heating" switch. The diesel engine can
then be started normally. Once the "Jacket Water Heating" switch is turned off, the diesel
heating device will stop working. To ensure that the jacket water heating device is not
damaged due to high temperatures, the water pump will continue to operate, maintaining the
circulation of coolant. After approximately 2-3 minutes, the water pump will automatically
stop working. Therefore, it is prohibited to turn off the "Main Power Switch" immediately
after turning off the jacket water heating switch.
Above the right side of the instrument panel, there are two red indicator lights: the preheat
indicator and the charging indicator.
The preheat indicator, also known as the diesel engine start indicator, should not be ignored.
When it is illuminated, starting the diesel engine is not allowed. The engine can only be
started once the indicator has turned off.
The charging indicator shows the status of the charging system. When the diesel engine is
stopped, the charging indicator should be on. Once the engine starts normally and its speed
exceeds approximately 800r/min, indicating that the charging voltage meets the requirements,
the charging indicator should turn off.
The tractive force setting potentiometer is used for presetting the maximum tractive force.
Rotate the knob and observe the tractive force meter on the main display. The red indicator
represents the real-time preset tractive force.
Under any circumstances, when the actual tractive force value (indicated by the green needle)
reaches or exceeds the preset tractive force value (indicated by the red needle), the traction
machine will automatically stop traction (the main pump will stop working and the brakes
will engage).
To resume traction operations, the control lever must be repositioned to the neutral position
before traction can be resumed.
As long as the actual tractive force value (green needle) is less than the preset tractive force
value (red needle), the traction operations will not be affected.
To ensure construction safety, it is crucial to carefully inspect and set the preset tractive force
before each traction operation.
The traction machine has two operating modes: manual and automatic. This switch is used to
toggle between the two modes. Pressing the switch once switches the operating mode. When
the traction machine is in automatic mode, the word "Auto" appears in red in the top right
corner of the traction force meter on the main screen. In manual mode, this indication
disappears.
Switching between operating modes must be done when the control lever is in the neutral
position (when traction operations are stopped). If this condition is not met, the switch will be
inactive.
Manual mode works similarly to a conventional traction machine, with the operator
controlling the engine throttle and control lever in real-time to adjust the traction speed.
Automatic mode, also known as "Constant Speed Mode", allows the operator to set a "preset
traction speed" in real-time via the control lever. This speed is displayed as a black number in
the bottom left corner of the traction force meter on the main screen.
In automatic mode, when the control lever is moved for traction or wire feeding operations,
the system automatically controls the diesel engine throttle and main pump displacement to
match the actual traction speed with the preset traction speed (the diesel engine throttle
control is inactive during this time). The traction speed remains constant, unaffected by
factors such as traction force.
When the control lever is returned to the neutral position, the automatic control of the diesel
engine throttle is deactivated, and the diesel engine speed can be adjusted using the diesel
engine throttle potentiometer.
Above the left side of the panel, there is a dust-proof self-resetting switch labeled "Control
Modes".
This traction machine can be operated either locally or remotely using a remote control device.
These are referred to as the local mode and remote mode, respectively. This switch is used to
toggle between these two modes. Pressing the switch once switches the control mode.
When the traction machine is in remote mode, the traction machine's operating mode will
automatically switch to automatic mode. Therefore, when the traction machine is switched to
remote mode, the words "Remote" and "Auto" will appear in red in the top left and top right
corners of the traction force meter on the main screen, respectively. When switched back to
local mode, the red indications disappear.
Switching between control modes must be done when the control lever is in the neutral
position (when traction operations are stopped). If this condition is not met, the switch will be
inactive.
To use remote control mode, it is necessary to purchase the remote control device specifically
configured for this traction machine by our company (either a remote control box or a remote
control room). The remote control box provides remote control for one traction machine,
while the remote control room can provide remote control for 1-4 traction machines. Custom
remote control solutions can also be created based on the user's specific needs.
The remote control device is compatible with all intelligent traction machines of different
traction force specifications in the H series and offers excellent interchangeability.
There is a fan control button with an indicator light used to control the fan system.
During normal operation, pressing the "Fan Control" button will illuminate the green
indicator light, indicating that the fan system is active. The display will also show a fan
indication symbol (see 3-1-1). The fan system automatically controls the radiator's operation
and adjusts the cooling pressure based on the temperature of the hydraulic oil.
Similar to traditional traction machines, the tail support pressure is controlled using an
open-loop control mode.
The current tail support pressure can be adjusted using the "Tail Support Pressure
Adjustment" potentiometer, and the displayed on the tail support pressure indicator.
In automatic mode, when the "Lift-Stop-Rotate" switch is in the "Rotate" position and the
control lever is in the "Traction" position, normal traction operations can proceed if the tail
support pressure is greater than 40 bar. If the pressure drops below 40 bar, the tail support
pressure loss protection is activated, and the traction operation will automatically stop to
ensure safety against potential risks caused by pressure loss.
3.2.10. Lift-Stop-Rotate
There is a three-position switch labeled "Lift-Stop-Rotate" for controlling the tail support.
When the switch is in the middle position, the tail support is inactive. Switching the switch to
the left position, labeled "Lift", activates the lifting cylinder, which is used to raise the wire
rope drum. The lifting pressure can be adjusted using the "Tail Support Pressure"
potentiometer. Switching the switch to the right position activates the tail rope winding motor,
and the tail rope tension can also be adjusted using the "Tail Support Pressure" potentiometer.
3.2.11. Release-Hold-Clamp
There is a three-position switch labeled "Release-Hold-Clamp" for controlling the tail rope
clamping device.
To use the tail rope clamping function, first, set the "Lift-Stop-Rotate" switch to the "Rotate"
position to maintain tension on the tail rope. Then, by switching the "Release-Hold-Clamp"
switch, you can control the action of the cylinder to clamp or release the tail rope. After the
clamping or releasing operation is complete, return the switch to the middle position.
When the control cylinder is in the "Clamp" position, the "Clamp" icon on the main screen
will flash. At this point, the control lever becomes inactive, and the traction wheel remains in
the "Brake" position, preventing traction or wire feeding operations.
There is a two-position switch labeled "Pendulum Switch" used to turn the pendulum system
on or off. When the switch is in the left position, the pendulum system is inactive. When the
switch is in the right position, the pendulum system becomes active and operates in
conjunction with the control lever's movements.
There is a self-resetting switch labeled "Pendulum Reversal" used for manual reversal of the
pendulum system. Each time the "Pendulum Reversal" switch is toggled, the pendulum
direction changes once.
There is a "Control Lever" used to control the main pump during traction or active wire
feeding operations. In manual mode, the greater the angle at which the control lever is pulled,
the faster the traction speed. In automatic mode, the control lever is used to set the traction
speed, with the set value displayed in black text in the lower left corner of the main screen.
When the control lever is placed in the neutral position, the main pump stops working.
There is a throttle control potentiometer used to adjust the diesel engine's throttle. Rotating
the throttle clockwise increases the engine's throttle, while rotating it counterclockwise
decreases it. The current engine speed is displayed on the monitor. In automatic mode, when
the control lever is moved away from the neutral position, the "Throttle Control"
potentiometer becomes inactive. When the control lever returns to the neutral position, the
"Throttle Control" potentiometer becomes active again.
There is a pendulum speed control valve available for adjusting the speed of the pendulum
movement.
Notes:
1. If the stroke valve is not pressed fully into position by the lower top plate of the
cylinder, even if the main traction lever is actuated, the traction wheel will not work.
2. During the wire payout process, make sure not to randomly move the tail rope clamp
switch; it should be maintained in the hold position.
The cycloidal mechanism of this machine is intelligently linked with the main pump control
lever. To engage the cycloidal operation, the "Cycloidal Switch" should be set to the working
position (right position). When not required, it should be placed in the stop position (left
position). The cycloidal operation has the following characteristics:
1. The start and stop of the cycloidal mechanism are linked with the main pump control
lever, requiring no manual intervention.
2. The cycloidal direction has a memory function. When the lever is reversed, the
cycloidal direction also changes automatically.
3. When the cycloidal system is not in use, it can be turned off via the "Cycloidal
Switch".
4. If manual intervention is needed to change the cycloidal direction, the "Cycloidal
Direction Change" switch can be used. Pressing this self-resetting switch once will switch the
cycloidal direction once.
5. The "Cycloidal Speed Adjustment Lever" allows for infinite adjustment of the
cycloidal speed to match the speed of the tail rope sheave, ensuring uniform winding of the
wire on the reel.
3.5.1. Description
During normal traction operations, the "Fan Control" button should be pressed, indicated by a
green indicator light and a gray fan icon on the main screen, indicating that the cooling
system is activated. When the cooling system is operating, the fan icon turns green.
The temperature of the fan cooling system on this machine is measured by a sensor, which
automatically controls the fan's operating state and working pressure. Under various operating
conditions, the fan automatically starts when the temperature rises above 40°C and shuts
down when the temperature drops below 35°C. The temperature of the hydraulic oil can be
observed through the hydraulic oil temperature gauge.
3.5.2. Precautions
Compared to traditional mechanical transmissions, hydraulic transmission systems offer
numerous advantages that mechanical transmissions cannot match. However, it cannot be
overlooked that the normal operation and performance of a hydraulic transmission system are
greatly influenced by the transmission medium, typically hydraulic oil. Controlling the
temperature of the hydraulic oil is crucial to ensuring reliable operation of the hydraulic oil
and other hydraulic components while optimizing the performance of the hydraulic system.
For traction machines, the use of a hydraulic closed-loop system places high demands on
lubrication and oil cleanliness, making this point particularly important.
From recent practical usage on construction sites, even in the hottest climates of the south, the
cooling capacity of the equipment poses no issues. This means that as long as it is used
correctly, the hydraulic oil can be maintained within a normal operating range. Here are some
instructions for operators to consider:
1.It is absolutely necessary to turn on the fan switch during actual use. Failure to do so may result
in the fan not working and cause the hydraulic oil temperature to rise excessively.
2.The hydraulic oil temperature gauge indicates the temperature of the hydraulic oil inside the
tank, which is approximately 20 degrees lower than the temperature of the hot oil in the
closed-loop circuit.
3.The optimal operating temperature of the hydraulic oil when using hydraulic equipment is
related to the type of hydraulic oil. When using the original hydraulic oil provided for this
machine, it is recommended to maintain the hydraulic oil temperature between 35-50 degrees
Celsius. If using a different brand of hydraulic oil, refer to its usage instructions or consult the
manufacturer or seller. It is important to note again that the temperature displayed on the
hydraulic temperature gauge is the temperature of the hydraulic oil in the tank, and there is
approximately a 20-degree difference between this temperature and the main system's
operating temperature.
4.The maximum pressure that the cooling system can adjust is related to the diesel engine speed.
5.When using the equipment in winter, before starting the equipment in the morning, if the
ambient temperature is below zero degrees, adjust the throttle to a lower position and start the
equipment for preheating. Once the preheating is complete, proceed with normal operation.
Generally speaking, before the hydraulic oil temperature rises to 20 degrees, the equipment
should be operated at a low speed. Once the hydraulic oil temperature exceeds 20 degrees, the
equipment can be operated at full speed.
6. Ensuring the normal operating temperature of the hydraulic oil is crucial for the proper
functioning of the hydraulic system. Although the use of the cooling system is relatively
simple, it cannot be neglected or overlooked, as the consequences can be severe. By following
the above requirements, the lifespan of the hydraulic oil and hydraulic system can be
significantly extended, reducing wear and aging of system components, improving system
efficiency and performance, and ultimately prolonging the lifespan of the equipment.
Tractor Maintenance
Proper and timely maintenance of the equipment is crucial to minimizing equipment failures
and extending its lifespan during actual use.
When refilling the dry oil pump, rotate counterclockwise and remove the end cap. Then, hold
the handle 1 shown in 6 and pull it upward to remove the sealing cap. Add grease after
removing the sealing cap, and then install the sealing cap and end cap in sequence.
To lubricate the split gears or bearings, operate the control handle of the dry oil pump. Each
dry oil pump has two working oil ports, which can be switched through the lever.
Check the working condition of the oil circuit filter. Hydraulic oil filters are equipped with
instrument indications and blockage alarm lights. If the light is on, it means the filter is
blocked, and the filter element should be cleaned or replaced.
Replace the hydraulic oil and filter element completely after 400 hours of operation for new
machines.
Replace the hydraulic oil and filter element annually or every 1500 hours of operation.
Replace the lubricating oil of the reduction gearbox after 50 hours of operation for new
machines.
Replace the lubricating oil of the reduction gearbox every 400 hours of operation.
Lubricate the split gear section every shift by switching the control lever on the dry oil pump
station to the "gear" position and operating the dry oil pump handle shown in 1-6
approximately ten times.
Lubricate the drum bearings every 100 hours of operation. There are two sets of drum
bearings, with the internal bearings lubricated by the dry oil pump. Pull out the dry oil pump
selection handle, and operate the oiling handle to complete the grease filling. The external
bearings are lubricated manually by removing the outer bearing cover plate of the drum and
directly injecting grease into the bearings using an oil gun or other suitable tools.
Replace the diesel engine oil after the first 50 hours of use; thereafter, replace the diesel
engine oil and the three filters every 250 hours.
The diesel engine is equipped with a Chinese-language instruction manual provided by the
manufacturer, which provides detailed instructions for various maintenance tasks of the diesel
engine. It is essential to read the manual carefully before use.
The gearbox employs a two-stage planetary gear transmission. Critical components such as
gears inside the gearbox are made of high-quality alloy steel. The main gears are quenched
and ground, and the supports use high-capacity hydrostatic bearings. Except for the bearing
below the output shaft, which is lubricated with grease, the rest of the gearbox employs an
immersion lubrication method. The gearbox input end is equipped with a friction disc-type
wet brake operated by oil pressure.
When replacing the lubricating oil in the gearbox, first unscrew the oil drain plug to drain the
dirty oil and clean the oil residue inside the box. Then, seal the oil drain port, unscrew the oil
fill plug, and inject the specified clean lubricating oil. During the use of the gearbox, it is
essential to observe for any oil leaks, noise, and loosening of bolts or screws. Any abnormal
phenomena should be addressed promptly. This gearbox employs a splash lubrication system,
so it is normal for oil to leak from the air holes when the gearbox is operating at high speeds.
Replace the lubricating oil in the gearbox and brake within the first 100 hours of operation;
then replace it every 1500-2000 hours or every 12 months.
The gearbox requires 100# industrial gear oil with a filling capacity of 3.7 liters.
The brake requires 46# hydraulic oil with a filling capacity of 0.35 liters.
The hydraulic oil filter used in this machine is a self-sealing type, primarily used for fine
filtration of the hydraulic system, removing contaminants to maintain cleanliness of the oil.
The filter is installed at the bottom of the oil tank, with the cylinder submerged in the oil and
the filter head exposed outside the tank. To replace, clean, or repair the filter element or the
system, unscrew the filter end cap counterclockwise. The self-sealing valve will automatically
close, preventing oil from leaking out. Withdraw the filter element, replace, clean, or repair it,
and then reinstall it by screwing the end cap clockwise.
The oil filter is equipped with a contamination and blockage detector. The detector combines
instrument indication and electrical signaling, allowing for real-time monitoring of the filter
element's condition. If the detector signals (i.e., the filter alarm light comes on), the filter
element should be replaced or cleaned promptly.
There are two types of oil filters: suction filters and return filters. The suction filter element
models are ZX-100×50 (large) for the main pump and ZX-100×50 (small) for the auxiliary
and fan pumps. The return filter element model is TZ-250×20. The return filter comes with a
return oil hole. By unscrewing the small hole plug, contaminated oil inside the filter can be
drained, extending the filter element's lifespan and improving oil purification.
Check the working condition of the oil circuit filters. All hydraulic oil filters are equipped
with instrument indication and blockage alarm lights. If the light is on, it means the filter is
blocked, and the filter element needs to be cleaned or replaced.
Replace the hydraulic oil and oil filter element completely after 400 hours of operation for a
new machine.
Replace the hydraulic oil and oil filter element every two years or after 1,500 hours of
operation.
4.6. Battery Maintenance
The battery should be used while fully charged to prevent freezing and potential casing
cracks.
Adding distilled water should be done before charging.
In non-freezing conditions, the concentration of the electrolyte should be as low as possible,
with a density generally not exceeding 1.285.
