Safety Guidelines Lock Out/Tag Out NOTICE In the interest of operator safety and operator compliance with OSHA regulations, guidelines have been developed to perform service and maintenance on the forklift.

Before Performing service and maintenance on the forklift, review the following sections in this manual for additional procedures to be followed.

Anytime you are doing maintenance or repair on the Landoll Bendi AC/DS forklift, unless it must be on for investigative testing, remove the key from the console. Disconnect the battery cable connector and install a commercially available Lock Out/Tag Out device at the battery connectors and remove the main power fuse, since it’s possible to have a duplicate key.

• Remove the key from the console.

• Disconnect the battery cable connectors.

• Install Lock Out/Tag Out device at the battery connectors.

• Remove the main power fuse.

• Place Lock Out/Tag Out warning reminder on the steering wheel.

Battery Safety Bendi AC/DS forklifts include a heavy gauge, pre-molded top compartment cover and a side door to secure the battery in the compartment.

Both covers include latches to lock the compartment. A cutout in the overhead guard is also provided for easy battery service.

The compartment top cover and the side door must be lowered/closed and securely locked in place whenever the battery is installed.



CAUTION

• Wear protective clothing, rubber apron, boots, gloves, and full-face shield when performing any maintenance on the battery.

• DO NOT allow electrolyte to come in contact with eyes, skin, clothing, or the floor. If electrolyte contacts eyes, flush immediately with clean water. OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY. • Should electrolyte be spilled on the skin, rinse promptly with clean water and soap. A baking soda solution (one pound to one gallon of water) will neutralize acid spilled on clothing, floor, or other surfaces. Apply solution until bubbling stops and rinse with clean water.

• Keep battery vent plugs firmly in place at all times, except when adding water or taking hydrometer readings.

• DO NOT bring any type of flame or spark near the battery.

• DO NOT place any electrically conductive tool on the battery that could cause a spark. Gas formed while the battery is charging is highly explosive. This gas remains in the cells long after charging is complete.

• Keep the battery clean. Foreign matter in the electrolyte will result in poor battery performance.

• Follow the battery manufacturer’s instructions concerning maintenance and repair.

1-5

INTRODUCTION, SAFETY, AND SPECIFICATIONS

Prior to TIlt Cylinder Repair



WARNING

DO NOT place feet or hands in any area through the mast or in the forklift pinch points. Servicing the tilt cylinders requires the use of an overhead hoist, hoist slings, and wheel blocks. The overhead hoist and slings must have a rating appropriately greater for the weight of the mast being serviced. DO NOT work under or around a forklift that is not properly secured.

• Forklift repair must be in a level, designated service area.

• Lower the mast completely to the floor.

• Disconnect the battery and lock out the forklift as described in “Lock Out/Tag Out” on page 1-5.

Chock wheels so that the forklift cannot move.

• Attach a sling and hoist to all of the top cross braces so the mast sections cannot move.

Mast Service Precautions



WARNING

• The mast is EXTREMELY heavy. Extra care should be taken to minimize possible injury.

Make sure the hoist is rated for weight of the mast.

• When servicing the mast or sections of the mast, hardwood blocks (4”X4”, 100 X 100mm or larger) shall be used to keep individual sections of the mast from falling. In addition to the hardwood blocks, chains shall be used to hold the mast sections from moving, in both the vertical and horizontal directions.

• Mast work is to be done in a flat designated area.

• NEVER walk under or stand on the forks.

• Remove forks before starting mast repairs.

• NEVER reach through the upright open areas of the mast.

• NEVER maintain or repair the mast without supports or while anyone is near the forklift (ASME B56.1-2000) • Raise the mast and position blocks under the second stage mast.

• Using an appropriate set of C-clamps, secure wooden blocks to the mast channel.

• For mast inspection, use only an approved safety platform or step ladder.

• NEVER repair mast chains; they are to be replaced.

• NEVER replace an individual mast chain. All chains are to be replaced in pairs.

Mast Removal For mast information, “Removing the Mast From the Forklift” on page 5-2.

1. Move the forklift to a level designated service area.

2. Turn the key switch to the OFF position and remove the key from the console.

3. Remove the forks.

4. Turn the steering wheel left and right several times to relieve any excess hydraulic pressure.

F-649-R0

INTRODUCTION, SAFETY, AND SPECIFICATIONS 7. Disconnect all wiring (if) used between the mast and the forklift body.

8. Support the mast using the sling and an overhead hoist.

9. Chain the individual sections of the mast together at the upper cross braces.

Cleaning & Inspecting the Forklift Landoll Corporation strongly discourages the use of power washes for cleaning forklifts. The high pressure water and soap can damage components such as electrical boards, circuitry and wiring. Water and other cleaning residue promotes the formation of rust and corrosion or may otherwise degrade some forklift components. The recommended method for dust removal is compressed air. For localized cleaning, the preferred method of cleaning is the use of a non-flammable solvent.

IMPORTANT Carefully review manufacturer provided WARNING labels and MSDS information when using solvents of other chemicals. Follow the recommended precautions regarding use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation to avoid breathing toxic fumes. Adhere to the manufacturer’s instructions regarding safe use and proper disposal methods.

• Clean metal parts with a de-greasing type solvent cleaner and wipe dry with a clean rag.

• Allow parts to air dry.

• DO NOT allow cleaning solvent to come in contact with rubber parts or rubber insulation, such as electrical wiring, seals, etc. to avoid corrosion.

• For non-metal parts, clean using a mild soap solution, shop vacuum for dust and loose dirt, or a dust pan and brush.

• Inspect all parts thoroughly for breaks, cracks, tears, burrs, scoring, warping or sharp edges, glazing, rust pitting, flat spots, etc. Notify your supervisor or all defects and record it in the forklift log book.

• Inspect all screw and hardware for stress marks, breaks, cracks, thread defects, etc.

• Replace all damaged or questionable parts with Landoll approved replacement parts before operating the forklift.

• Take care to properly identify and tag each part, its order of removal, and location. Use a non-destructive marker, such as a felt-tipped pen. Take photographs and notes as necessary to be able to re-assemble the product correctly.

Please contact a Landoll technician with any questions 1-800-428-5655 x 4778.

Emergency STOP

To continue, plug the cable back into the Emergency Disconnect. See Figure 1-4.

B30 Stop Button: Press this button to shut down the drive and all mast movement. The forklift drifts to a STOP. Immediately set the parking brake.

To continue, pull out on the button to reset the switch.

See Figure 1-4.

Use this button: • In case of fire, smoke or overheating.

• If a person comes between the forklift and a fixed object.

• In case an accident occurs.

B40 Emergency Disconnect: Pull the disconnect handle to remove power and shut down drive and mast movement. The forklift drifts to a STOP. Immediately set the parking brake.

• In case of a short circuit or other electrical malfunction e.g., if the pump motor is on continuously.

Figure 1-4: Emergency Interrupts

Towing the Forklift If the forklift breaks down and cannot be repaired at that location, it may be towed by attaching a suitable hook and chain to the tow pin located in the cutout at the lower rear of the forklift. See Figure 1-5.

Carefully and slowly tow the forklift backwards to the service repair area. An operator must be on the towed forklift, wearing a seat belt.

1-15

INTRODUCTION, SAFETY, AND SPECIFICATIONS



WARNING

• Have the service brake applied when hooking up the tow chain.

• Tow the forklift at a speed of 2 mph or less.

• DO NOT make sharp turns when towing the forklift. The towed forklift will be difficult to steer. USE EXTREME CAUTION and keep the towed vehicle at a slow, manageable speed.

• Forks must be empty.

• Forks must not be more than 12” off the floor.

• With the park brake disabled, the forklift can roll easily - USE EXTREME CARE. • Failure to reset the park brake will result in an unsafe condition.

• Towing vehicle must have a pull and braking capacity greater than 8,000 lbs.

• Maximum towing speed should not exceed 2 mph.

Figure 1-5: Tow Pin

• Always tow the forklift in the reverse direction.

NOTICE Be careful, the forklift will roll easily and steering will be difficult.

Brake functions will not be equivalent to an operational forklift.

1. The key switch must be in the OFF position.

2. There should be no load on the forks and no higher than 12 inches off the ground.

3. Firmly attach the tow device from the towing vehicle to the forklift tow pin provided on the lower rear side of the forklift frame.

4. Keep the towing speed below 2 mph. The operators of the towing vehicle and the disabled forklift should maintain communication and visual contact while observing the towing operation.

Chapter 2

Inspections Inspection Introduction Inspections and preventative maintenance are an essential part of maintaining all industrial equipment. A well planned inspection program is essential to operator safety and forklift longevity.

The inspection program recommended by Landoll Corporation periodically checks the integrity of Bendi forklift systems, e.g., checking operator’s functions, fluid levels, and overall conditions.

• Checking performance of operator functions, e.g., lift, tilt, side shift, attachment, and traction systems.

• Checking for leaks.

• Checking fluid levels.

• Making sure components are securely attached.

• Checking the tires.

Preventative maintenance is the responsibility of both the daily operator and the forklift technician.

To make sure these and other systems are checked periodically, Landoll Corporation has developed a system of checklists. A blank copy of each checklist can be found on pages 2-2 through 2-6.

These checklists include • Operator’s Daily Checklist • 1st 50 Hour Inspection Checklist • 500 Hour Inspection Checklist • 1000 Hour Inspection Checklist • 2000 Hour Inspection Checklist • 4500 Hour Inspection Checklist Except for the Operator’s Daily Checklist, these tasks are usually performed by a service and maintenance facility that is approved by Landoll Corporation. These inspection sheets should be copied, completed and maintained by the forklift technicians.

IMPORTANT Recommended service inspections are based on normal operating conditions. If the forklift is subjected to severe or above normal operating conditions, extreme temperatures, excessive dust or wet environments, or if the forklift is around corrosive materials, service must be performed at more frequent intervals.

IMPORTANT The performance of the Landoll Bendi AC/DS is dependent on the condition of the battery installed in the forklift. To ensure a long battery life and dependable forklift performance, perform the daily inspection of battery electrolyte and follow the service recommendations of the battery’s supplier.

Daily Inspection Checklist The following pages are OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) required check sheets. These sheets should be copied and the copies used for maintenance checks on your Bendi AC/DS forklift. It is the operator’s duty to inspect the lift before each shift and report all problems to the person in charge of forklift maintenance. Have a qualified mechanic correct all noted problems.

Daily pre-shift inspection is an OSHA requirement, regulation 1910.178(q)(7). Report any defect immediately to your supervisor.

The daily inspection includes: • Visual inspection of the entire forklift for any defect.

• Visual check for any hydraulic leaks.

• Check that all controls and gauges work properly.

INSPECTIONS

Inspections and Scheduled Maintenance Requirements This section describes the planned maintenance requirements, adjustments, and lubrication necessary to ensure safe and efficient operation of the Bendi AC/DS forklift. Planned maintenance procedures are designed to extend the service life of the forklift and prevent unnecessary repairs. Thoroughly review this section prior to inspecting or servicing the forklift.

Inspection schedules are provided at the end of this chapter and also in the Operator’s Manual provided with the forklift.

Recommended lubricants and torque values are found in “Torque Specifications” on page 1-10.



DANGER

Failure to follow these guidelines can cause serious injury or death:

Common sense and standard precautions apply when servicing machinery and must always be used.

In addition to a good portable light source and various tools, as explained in “Required Tools” on page 1-1, the following tools and equipment may be required.

• Hydraulic jack, appropriate for the weight being raised.

• Safety stands, appropriate for the weight being supported.

• Overhead crane, appropriate for the weight being lifted and/or supported.

• Grease gun.

• Torque wrench - capable of measuring at least 500 Ft-lbs. (678nm).

• Drain pan, capable of holding at least 11 gallons (41.6 liters) of hydraulic fluid.

• Angle wrenches

• NEVER perform maintenance or service procedures unless specifically indicated in this manual or at the specific request of supervisory personnel. All other service and maintenance on your Bendi AC/DS forklift must be provided by a facility authorized by Landoll Corporation to perform these services.

• Before using any solvent or cleaning solution, be sure that it will not damage the part you are cleaning.

For example, gasoline should never be used to clean parts. Gasoline is highly flammable and may damage some types of rubber and plastic. Hydraulic brake fluid (standard, not silicone type) is often used to clean rubber parts. It also removes paint quickly, so care should be exercised when it is used.

• Wipe up any spills immediately to prevent slipping, fire, explosion, or contact with hazardous materials.

• Tag all parts for identification and location before removal and mark all mating parts for accurate re-assembly.

• Failure to use lifting equipment of adequate capacity to lift and move your Bendi AC/DS forklift can cause lifting equipment failure.

• Protect finished surfaces from damage caused by dropped wrenches, spilled solvent, etc.

• Removing the counterweights or uprights will change the center of gravity of the forklift.

This can cause the forklift to tip. The battery is considered part of the forklift’s counterweight.

To help avoid fire related injuries: • Have fire extinguishing equipment present in the work area.

• DO NOT allow sparks or open flames while checking fluid level, leaking oil, or electrolyte.

• DO NOT use fuel or flammable cleaning fluids to clean parts.

Tools and Equipment Required Read and comply with all applicable SAFETY precautions when servicing the forklift. See the section “Before You Begin” on page 1-1 at the beginning of this manual.

• Use a penetrating oil to loosen difficult screws, nuts, or bolts. A hand-held impact driver is a handy tool when removing tight fasteners.

• Certain bolts, screws, or nuts are secured with a non-permanent thread-locking compound at the factory e.g., Loctite Primer and Blue Sealant #243 or equivalent (Landoll P/N 115627). When these parts are replaced, a non-permanent thread-locking compound must be reapplied.

• No parts, except those press-fit assembled, require unusual force to disassemble. If you encounter trouble, determine the reason for the difficulty, before proceeding.

• Cover all openings caused by removing parts or sub-assemblies to keep objects from falling in where additional damage could result.

• When assembling two parts, start all of the fasteners first, then tighten them evenly and in a staggered manner. Be sure both mating surfaces are aligned, not cocked or off-center.

2-7

INSPECTIONS • Observe standard torque ratings for the size and type of fastener as listed starting in “Torque Specifications” on page 1-10.

• Be sure to use the proper nuts, bolts, and other fasteners as rated, e.g., SAE Grade 5, SAE Grade 8, ISO Prop Class 8.8, etc.

• All fasteners must be replaced with the identical type.

• Use only Landoll approved replacement parts.

Cleaning and Inspecting the Forklift Landoll Corporation strongly discourages the use of power washers for cleaning forklifts. The high pressure water and soap can damage components such as electrical boards, circuitry and wiring. Water and other cleaning residue promotes the formation of rust and corrosion or may otherwise degrade some forklift components. The recommended method for dust removal is compressed air. For localized cleaning, the preferred method of cleaning is the use of a non-flammable solvent.

Carefully review manufacturer provided WARNING labels and MSDS information when using solvents or other chemicals. Follow the recommended precautions regarding use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation to avoid breathing toxic fumes. Adhere to the manufacturer’s instructions regarding safe use and proper disposal methods.

• Clean metal parts with a de-greasing type solvent cleaner and wipe dry with a clean rag.

• Allow parts to air dry.

• DO NOT allow cleaning solvent to come in contact with rubber parts or rubber insulation, such as electrical wiring, seals, etc. to avoid corrosion.

• For non-metal parts, clean using a mild soap solution, shop vacuum for dust and loose dirt, or a dust pan and brush.

Inspection and/or Maintenance • Inspect the forklift in an area that has sufficient clearance to check all operator functions.

• Lower forks to the ground and tilt mast forward.

• Use wheel chocks or other positive positioning devices if drive functions will not be checked.

• Raise the drive wheels so they are not in contact with the floor when checking operator functions while leaving the forklift in a stationary position.

• Block the mast to prevent it from engaging.

• Use adequately rated hoisted equipment if the forklift will be hoisted for service.

• Never remove counterweights or uprights. This will change the center of gravity and can cause an unstable condition.

Performance Testing



CAUTION

Before leaving the forklift make sure that: • The parked forklift will not cause an obstruction or safety hazard and is clean of the path of fire exits/equipment.

• The forklift will not be left unattended on an incline.

• Make sure all accessories are off before continuing.

If the forklift is inoperative and you must leave it parked on an incline, securely block all wheels and remove the key.

1. The operator should be properly seated in the operator’s seat before beginning testing procedures.

2. Turn the key switch to the ON position.

• Inspect all parts thoroughly for breaks, cracks, tears, burrs, scoring, warping or sharp edges, glazing, rust pitting, flat spots, etc. Notify your supervisor of all defects and record it in the forklift log book.

3. Set direction switch to the forward position.

• Inspect all screws and hardware for stress marks, breaks, cracks, thread defects, etc.

Daily Inspections

• Replace all damaged or questionable parts with Landoll approved replacement parts before operating the forklift.

Safety Warnings and Manual

• Take care to properly identify and tag each part, its location, and its order of removal. Use a non-destructive marker, such as a felt-tipped pen.

Take photographs and notes as necessary.

4. Check functions described in the Operator’s Daily Checklist or other Checklists.

Check for damage and missing decals. Check that the decals are legible. Clean and/or replace as needed. See Figure 1-1. Check that the Operator’s Manual is with the forklift and in good condition.

• If you have any questions about parts or reassembly contact Landoll Corporation at 800-423-4320.

2-8

F-649-R0

INSPECTIONS

Data Plate The data plate should be checked to verify capacity ratings and lift heights. Also check the serial number of the forklift and mast to make sure they match up with the corresponding numbers on the data plate.

Wheels and Tires The condition of the tires are to be checked along with the accessible lug nuts torqued at the beginning of each shift.

The forklift is equipped with tires of a size and hardness that provide the necessary traction and still maintain a proper shape to minimize tipping. To maintain stability and maximum reliability, tires must always be replaced with the type originally supplied, as listed on the specification sheet at the end of this manual. It is also recommended to replace worn tires in pairs. Drive tires with tread must be replaced when the tread depth is less than 1/16” (1.6mm) at the deepest point.



CAUTION

If tires have excessive wear and/or chunking or lug nuts are missing, repair and/or have service replace immediately. DO NOT use the forklift.

2. Inspect tires for undercutting and uneven wear.

Undercutting is caused by continuous overloads, rapid sharp turns, operating on slopes, loose spindles, transporting loads with a high center of gravity, or transporting off center loads. This causes the rubber to bulge out over the edge of the steel band, cutting the rubber just above the base band.

Uneven tire wear is usually the result of mechanical defects, such as badly adjusted brakes, misaligned wheels, or a faulty drive axle.

3. Check that the tires remain centered on the wheels to prevent splitting of the base band and tread separation. Correct defects as soon as possible.

4. Flat spotting can occur from excessive heat, a load left on the forks overnight, or locking the brakes with excessive skidding.

5. Avoid oil, grease, gasoline, and acid.

6. Torque drive wheel lug nuts to 225ft. lbs. (305Nm) and make sure no lug nuts are missing.

ESD Straps Two ESD Straps are installed just behind the front axle.

These straps will drain all static electricity build-up that may occur on the Bendi AC/DS forklift. ESD Straps should be in fair condition, bolted securely to the body and touching the ground.

1. Inspect the tire for chunking or embedded objects.

This is caused by running over objects on a littered floor, overloading, or bad driving habits - sharp, rapid turns at high speeds or rapid starts and stops.

• Remove any embedded foreign material and torn pieces of tread as soon as it is noticed.

• Replace chunked tires if they produce a rough bouncy ride.

Figure 2-2: ESD Strap

Parking Brake The parking brake system on an Bendi AC/DS Series forklift is automatically controlled by the forklift’s control system.



CAUTION

This test will cause the drive wheel to lock. Do not test the parking brake at high speed. Check parking brake at creep speed only.

Figure 2-1: Tire wear and Damage 2-9

INSPECTIONS To check the park brake:

Hydraulic Oil

1. Sit in the operator’s seat and turn the key switch to ON. 2. Put the directional switch in the forward position and drive forward at a very slow speed.

3. While forklift is creeping forward, turn the key switch to the OFF position.

4. The park brake should click on immediately after the key switch is turned OFF, bringing the forklift to an abrupt stop.

5. If any problems are found with the operation of the park brake, immediately pull the forklift from service and repair. DO NOT use the forklift.

Service Brakes With the key switch set to ON, drive forward slowly and then steadily apply the brake pedal. The forklift should stop smoothly without noticeable side pull or vibration. If any problems are detected, remove the forklift from service immediately until it is repaired.

NOTICE If the forklift has been in operation, let the forklift sit for several minutes before checking the oil level to allow time for the oil to return to the tank.

Completely lower the mast. Lift floor mat and remove left floor plate and pull out the dipstick to ensure the oil level reads between the marks. Add recommended oil if the level is low. See page 1-10.

Hydraulic Cylinders, Hoses, and Fittings Check underneath the forklift for evidence of fluid leaks.

Look for hydraulic hose wear, damage, and leaks. Make sure clamps and fittings are tight. In the event that leaks are detected, immediate corrective action must be taken.

DO NOT operate the forklift until repairs are made and the hydraulic fluid level has been checked.

Check the Brake Fluid Level The Master Cylinder reservoir is located under the floor plates just above attached to the brake pedal assembly.

Remove the bolt on the lid and check the levels as indicated. The reservoir is full when the oil level is at the fill line.

FILL LOCATION

DIPSTICK

Forks Check the forks for cracks, inspecting closely the heel portion of the forks. If any cracks are found replace the fork. Never attempt to repair, weld, or alter a fork.



CAUTION

• DO NOT service carriage forks while the key switch is on. If a control lever is accidentally moved, serious injury could occur.

• Use only Landoll approved replacement parts. Use only quality forks that are forged or have an up-set heel and the same capacity rating as the factory installed forks.

HYDRAULIC OIL TANK Figure 2-3: Reservoir Location

• NEVER use forks repaired by welding.

• Always replace both forks. Switching forks from one forklift to another can be dangerous if the capacity of the forks is not known.

Mast Racking With the key switch turned ON, tilt the unloaded mast rearward. The mast should stop when the tilt cylinders bottom with no evidence of mast twist (racking). If twisting occurs, adjust the tilt cylinder rods.

2-10

Battery Before performing any inspections or maintenance on the battery read “Battery Safety” on page 1-5.

It is important to properly maintain the battery to ensure long life, strong voltage potential, and safety of the battery.

• Keep electrolyte levels proper.

• Avoid charging/operating battery above 115°F. • Use only approved, correct voltage/current, chargers.

Using a Hydrometer As the battery discharges, the specific gravity of the electrolyte reduces. A hydrometer allows you to check specific gravity of the cells, thus the charge state of the battery.

1. Remove a cap from one or two of the cells. Gently squeeze (compress) the bulb of the hydrometer.

2. Insert the tube of the hydrometer into the cell electrolyte. Slowly release the bulb to allow fluid to draw into the hydrometer. Enough fluid must enter the hydrometer to allow the float to move freely.

3. The specific gravity of the electrolyte is read off the scale of the float where it emerges from the fluid. It is a good practice to select many different and multiple cells.

4. When returning the electrolyte to the battery, ensure that the fluid is returned to the cell it was taken from and be very careful not to splash the electrolyte.

Replacing the Battery Replacing the battery requires lift and support apparatus capable of supporting the weight and size of the battery.

Check the data plate for battery information. See Figure 1-1.

An external battery roller tray stand is also helpful, and available through a Landoll distributor, to allow the battery to be pushed into the compartment.

To Replace a Battery: 1. Return the forklift to service charging station area.

2. Set the key switch to OFF and remove key from easy access.

3. Place blocks in front of and behind all wheels.

4. Unlatch the compartment cover (below drivers seat) and raise the battery compartment top cover.

5. Secure the cover to the overhead guard latch and insert the locking pin. Jiggle cover to be sure latch is secured. See Figure 2-5.

6. Open the right side door by sliding the locking lever to the right, then swing the door fully opened.

Figure 2-4: Using a Hydrometer

7. Disconnect the battery/forklift cable disconnect and lay the battery cable across the battery top. See Figure 2-6.

2-11

INSPECTIONS

OVERHEAD GUARD

10. To prevent roll-out, measure the width of the new battery. Adjust the retainer brackets located on the underside of the compartment top cover to approximately 0.500” to 0.750” (12.7 mm to 19 mm) wider than the width of the battery. Tighten and torque the screws.

11. When installing the battery, it must be pushed up against the rear wall panel and centered within the battery compartment. See Figure 2-6.

LATCH AND PIN LATCH BRACKET

COMPARTMENT COVER

12. Close and secure the compartment side door and connect the battery electrical connector (blue).

Situate the excess wiring between the battery and the side wall of the forklift, making sure the wires are not exposed causing a “pinch” condition when the top cover is closed.

13. Release the overhead guard latch and lower and secure the top cover. Make sure the cover latch is secured and that no wires are pinched.

Figure 2-5: Overhead Guard Battery Cover Latch

Figure 2-6: Removing the Battery 8. Lift the compartment side door spring latch up to release the latch pins in the battery tray and the rear counterweight.

9. Place and connect the appropriate lift and support apparatus (overhead crane, crossbar and chains) within the overhead guard cutout, then carefully lift and slide the battery from the forklift. See Figure 2-6.

INSPECTIONS

Figure 2-7: Battery Disconnects

Charging a Wet Cell Battery 1. Remove each vent cap and check electrolyte levels.

Ambient temperature should be +77° F (+25° C) to get a proper reading. In cold weather, batteries may look dry.

2. DO NOT add water until a proper temperature is obtained; cold weather can affect the level. If water must be added, use only distilled water.

3. Make sure the electrolyte level is at the level indicator.

4. Replace the vent caps. They must be secured in place during charging.

5. Charge the battery using a constant current charger set to 5% of the six-hour battery capacity. For example, 55 amps for an 1,100 AH (ampere-hour) battery.

• Ordinarily, the charge should take about 3 to 5 hours to complete.

• During the initial charge the volume of electrolyte decreases through electrolysis and evaporation.

Water approved for use in lead-acid storage batteries should be added if the electrolyte level falls below the level indicator.

• If the cell temperature rises higher than +110° F (+61.2° C) either reduce the charging current to half the original value or stop charging until the temperature falls below +110° F (+61.2° C). If the charging current is reduced, extend the charging time accordingly.

7. Continue charging until the cells gas freely and the specific gravity remains constant over a three-hour period. At the end of the charge period the cell voltages rise to about 2.55 volts and the specific gravity rises to about 1.280, corrected to 77° F. 8. When charging is complete, ensure the vented cell caps on the battery are secure.

9. Connect battery cables and install battery in forklift.

Charging a Dry Cell Battery 1. Remove and discard plastic film seals from each cell vent hole (if present).

2. Fill the cells to the level indicator using dilute battery grade sulfuric acid with a specific gravity between 1.260 and 1.270 corrected to +77° F (+25° C). The temperature of the electrolyte should be no higher than 90° F (32° C).

3. Allow the cells to soak for 2 to 3 hours after filling.

The electrolyte level may drop slightly because of absorption into the plates and separators. If it does, add more electrolyte to restore the level.

4. Charge the battery, using a constant current charger set to 5% of the six-hour battery capacity. For example, 55 amps for an 1100 AH (ampere-hour) battery. The time required for an initial charge is approximately 8 hours.

6. Refer to “Specific Gravity Correction” on page 2-11 for Specific Gravity correction factors dependent upon electrolyte temperature.

2-13

INSPECTIONS 5. During the initial charge the volume of electrolyte decreases through electrolysis and evaporation.

Water approved for use in lead-acid storage batteries should be added if the electrolyte level falls below the level indicator.

If the cell temperature rises higher than +110° F (+43° C) either reduce the charging current to half the original value or stop charging until the temperature falls below +110° F (+43° C). If the charging current is reduced, extend the charging time accordingly.

6. Continue charging until the cells gas freely and the specific gravity remains constant over a three-hour period. At the end of the charge period the cell voltages rise to about 2.55 volts and the specific gravity rises to about 1.280 (corrected to 77° F).

7. If the specific gravity exceeds 1.290 after charging, dilute with distilled water and continue to charge for two more hours.

8. If the specific gravity is below 1.280 after charging, add electrolyte with a specific gravity of 1.400 until the battery has a specific gravity between 1.280 and 1.290. Then resume charging for another two hours.

Battery Restraint System and Rollout Option The battery restraint should be in place at all times when a battery is installed in the forklift. A switch that detects the battery restraint will disable the forklift if the restraint is not in place.

Rollout Battery Removal 1. Remove the safety retainer bar, deactivating the safety switch.

2. Position battery roll out stand next to the forklift and align the stand with the path of the battery.

3. Roll the battery onto the stand.

Rollout Battery Installation 1. Change and charge batteries in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 505.

2. Check to be sure the key is off.

3. Open the right hand door.

4. If using a rollout stand, position the battery stand next to the forklift. Align stand with battery compartment. Battery roller stand should be at the same height as the forklift.

5. Push battery into the forklift’s battery compartment or lower if using a hoist.

6. Install the rollout battery arm bar, or the forklift will not operate. See Figure 2-8.

Figure 2-8 Rollout Battery Arm Bar

Operator Controls In order to test many of the operator controls the forklift must be running. When powering on the forklift be sure to investigate any unusual noises and record them on the Operator’s Daily Checklist.

Dash Display Ensure that the Battery Discharge Indicator, Speed and Direction Indicators, Hour Meter and other readouts are functioning properly.

Steering Before operating the forklift, check the steering system to make sure it operates correctly. To check the steering system: 1. Get in the operator’s compartment and turn the key switch to the ON position.

2. While applying the service brake, release the parking brake and set the direction control lever to FORWARD or REVERSE. The hydraulic pump motor should start running.

3. If the motor does not start, first check that the parking brake is released.

4. While moving forward or backward slowly (to avoid flat-spotting), verify that the forklift turns left and right with a relatively smooth, easy motion.

5. While moving forward or backward slowly, turn the steering wheel completely to the right (a full right-hand turn).

6. While moving slowly in either direction, turn the steering wheel completely to the left (counterclockwise) while counting the number of full revolutions. The steering wheel must complete approximately 7-9 revolutions, lock-to-lock.

7. Next, turn the steering wheel completely to the right (clockwise) while counting the number of revolutions.

The steering wheel must complete approximately 7-9 revolutions, ±1/2 revolution, lock-to-lock.

7. Connect the battery.

2-14

F-649-R0

INSPECTIONS 8. Sit in the forklift without touching the steering, set the direction switch to neutral, and check that the pump turns off.

The mast rails then twist, eventually causing them to crack and separate. Proper tilt degree adjust is 5° forward and 8° backward maximum.



Accelerator With the key switch set to ON, gradually push on the accelerator. The further pressed, the faster the forklift will operate. Let up on the accelerator and the forklift should come to a controlled stop. Check to make sure the control does not stick or catch. If any problems are detected, remove the forklift from service immediately until it is repaired.

Lift/Lower Control With the key switch turned ON, raise the mast. The hydraulic motor should start running as soon as the control is moved out of the neutral position and stop as soon as the control returns to the neutral position, except when lowering. The motor shouldn't run at all when lowering the mast, unless steering is active.

Check that the primary mast cylinder extends fully and that the lift carriage rises to the top of the inner rails before the secondary cylinders begin to move.



WARNING

NEVER place head, hands, arms, or feet in the mast area! Make sure there is sufficient room above the forklift to raise the mast safely.

When the lift carriage reaches the top of the inner rails, the secondary cylinders and middle rails begin lifting.

Check to make sure the rails travel smoothly and that there is no chatter or visible binding.

• With the mast fully extended, begin lowering the mast. The secondary cylinders and middle rails fully lower first, followed by the primary cylinder and the lift carriage. Check for smooth travel with no chattering or visible binding.

• If there is noticeable chatter or binding, immediately notify the supervisor or service personnel.

• DO NOT attempt to operate the forklift until the problem is repaired.

CAUTION

If this problem is left uncorrected, serious damage to the mast assembly or the tilt cylinders can occur, causing the need for extensive repair and downtime.

1. To check for racking, find a reasonably level floor area to park the forklift on and center the mast on the forklift.

2. Raise the mast about 36” (914mm) from the floor and tilt the mast full forward and rearward several times watching for twisting at the ends of the stroke.

3. If there is any twisting or racking, both tilt cylinder rods must be readjusted. Remove the forklift from service immediately and repair.

Side-Shift Control At least once every working shift, the side shifting mechanism must be inspected for visible damage and defects. Any changes occurring with the mechanism or its workings must be reported immediately to the supervisor.

Moving parts of the side shifting mechanism entail the danger of pinching, crushing, or snagging. Safe distance must be maintained at all times to prevent clothing or body parts from being caught by the moving parts.

When side shifting, closely watch the load and forks throughout the entire operation to prevent over shift or snagging the load on other objects.

Operate the side shift only when the load is lifted off the ground.

Direction Control Check the direction control switch in both positions.

• When the direction control switch is pushed forward and the accelerator pressed the forklift should move forward.

Tilt Control

• When the direction control switch is pushed backwards and the accelerator is pressed the forklift should move backwards.

Move the tilt lever forward and aft, tilting the mast to both extents, watching for racking.

Speed Switch

Racking occurs when the tilt cylinder strokes are uneven.

(One cylinder bottoms before the other).

Test to ensure that the fast and slow speed settings change the maximum speed of the forklift.

2-15

INSPECTIONS

Return To Neutral When you move the direction control the forklift will shift to neutral. When this switch happens the forklift should slow to a stop.

Horn Press the horn button located beside the directional control on the right arm rest. Make certain the horn sounds when trigger is actuated.

Lights and Alarm Check lights for proper on/off operation. Check that alarms sound when intended. Repair and/or replace as needed.

Seat

SEAT SWITCH AND CABLE Figure 2-9: Seat Switch

Seat Switch

Seat Adjustment

The driver’s seat limit switch system includes an interlock that shuts down the drive and pump motors and disables the direction control (resets to NEUTRAL) bringing the forklift to a smooth STOP. The mast functions remain operable.

A lever under the front of the seat releases the catch for forward or backward seat adjustment. Weight or suspension adjustment is controlled by the hand wheel.

A gauge showing the adjusted level is located to the right of the adjustment hand wheel.

To check the seat switch: 1. Sit in the driver’s seat, set the key switch to ON and release the parking brake.

2. Set the control lever to FORWARD and slowly increase motor speed until the forklift begins to move.

3. Have operator lift from the seat far enough to release the seat switch. The forklift must immediately slow to a STOP, and steering is disabled.

Rake Adjustment The rake adjustment has three adjustment positions.

Operation - Lift seat at the front corners. Adjust seat forward or backward until in position. Push front corners of seat down to lock in place.

4. If the forklift continued moving forward, it must be removed from operation and the seat switch must be replaced.

Seat Belt Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. Pull up on the latch plate to make sure it is secure. The lap part of the belt must be worn low and snug on the hips, just touching the thighs. Push the release button to release the seat belt.

Chapter 3

Scheduled Maintenance 1st 50 Hours or 2 Week Checklist Mast Chains The chain must be adjusted so each strand is under equal tension for proper load distribution and mast operation. To determine whether the chains are properly adjusted:

4. Measure the distance from the floor to the bottom heel of each fork tine. Measurement must be 1/8” (3.175 mm) minimum to 1/4” (6.35 mm) maximum. If it is not within 1/8” to 1/4” (3.175 mm to 6.35 mm), adjust the primary lift chain accordingly.

1. Remove load from forks.

2. Raise the mast to put the chains under tension.

3. Press the center of a strand of chain with your thumb, then press at the same place on the other chain of the pair.

4. Each chain in a pair should have equal “give”. If tension is not equal, adjust them as described in the manufacturer’s mast service manual.

Measuring Chain Stretch If the chains stretch beyond the recommended amount, they should be replaced in pairs. Chain stretch can be measured with a chain wear scale. See Figure 3-1. The scale indicates whether the distance between two chain links is within tolerance. The shaded area in the illustration compares a stretched chain to a new chain.

Measure the chains according to the instructions printed on the chain wear scale, without load on the carriage.

• To check the free lift chains, raise the carriage 1ft. (30 cm) off the ground to put tension on the chains.

• To check the main lift chains, raise the mast until the inner upright starts to extend putting tension on the chains.

Check Primary Lift Chain 1. Park the forklift on a flat, level surface.

Figure 3-1: Measuring Chain Stretch

Check Lift Operation 1. Check the lift cylinders to ensure proper sequencing.

If adjustment is needed. “Check Primary Lift Chain” or See “Supplier Provided Documentation” on page 7-1.

2. Check to see that an unloaded mast will completely lift to full lift height (the relief opens). If it will not, check the hydraulic oil level in the reservoir and add oil if necessary.

2. Set the mast in the center of the forklift, facing straight ahead, level to the floor and empty (unloaded).

Brakes Figure 3-3: Hydraulic Filter

Checking and Adjusting Hydraulic Pressure



WARNING

HIGH PRESSURE FLUIDS CAN BE DANGEROUS! Before continuing with this section, read about the warnings of pressurized hydraulic oil under “Hydraulic System” Warning page 1-7.

Service Brakes The service brakes are hydraulically-actuated, disc brakes, similar to an automotive disc brake system. They are installed to the gear box / motor assembly, on the rear wheels only.

The brakes should be checked every 500 hours of operation. Normal brake pad life is approximately 3,000 hours of operation, as determined by driving conditions. If the forklift is near or beyond this time frame, the brakes must be inspected.

New brake pads are approximately 0.265” (6.7mm) thick; replace them when the pad thickness is 0.0625” (1.588 mm) or less at the thinnest point.

A few indications of possible brake pad replacement are:

FILTER ELEMENT

• Excess travel of the service brake pedal • The forklift pulling to one side when the brakes are applied • Squealing when you apply the brakes Drive the forklift at creep speed and apply brakes lightly to determine if brakes pads are contacting the disc (rotor). You should feel a slight pulsating effect as the pads contact the disc.

Parking Brake

Figure 3-4: Hydraulic Oil Filter

The parking brake operation should be checked. See “Parking Brake” on page 2-9. The parking brake pad wear is also to be checked every 500 hours.

Hydraulic Hoses

Wheels and Tires

Check underneath the forklift for evidence of fluid leaks.

Look for hydraulic hose wear, damage, and leaks. Make sure clamps and fittings are tight. In the event that leaks are detected, immediate corrective action must be taken.

DO NOT operate the forklift until repairs are made and the hydraulic fluid level has been checked.

The wheels and tires should be checked for debris and the lug nuts re-torqued. See “Wheels and Tires” on page 2-9. The wheel bearings should also be repacked at this time. The disassembly and inspection procedure is detailed in “Disassembling and Inspecting Wheel Bearings” on page 5-40.

F-649-R0

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

Motors and Gearboxes Drive and pump motor studs and bolts should be re-torqued. Cooling vents on the motors should be cleaned out. The hydraulic pump and gearboxes should be inspected for leaks.

General Mast Inspection Perform the following general mast inspections:

10. If it is not within 1/8” to 1/4” (3.175mm to 6.35mm), adjust the primary lift chain accordingly.

11. Visually inspect the chains for cracks, stretched or stressed links and broken pins.

12. When raising the mast, listen for usual chain noise and watch the action of the chain for anything unusual.

13. Watch for unusual pulley movement or pulley wobble that would indicate a worn mast bearing.

1. Check the lift cylinder for proper sequencing. See “Lift/Lower Control” on page 2-15.

2. Check if the unloaded mast elevates to full lift (relief should open). If mast will not go to full lift, check the hydraulic fluid level in the reservoir and add fluid if required.

3. With load on forks in front carry position, elevate to approximately 5 feet (1.524 meters). Lower fast to within 6 inches (152.4mm) of floor and stop abruptly.

The mast should stop with a solid effect, if the forks rebound, bleed the hydraulic cylinder.

4. Check the carriage rollers and elevating channel rollers for proper contact with mating surface.

5. Look for signs of galling where the rollers contact the rail. See Figure 3-5.

• Galling is indicated by track marks in the rails that are 1/4” to 1/2” (6.35mm to 12.7mm) wide running up the rail. Normal track marks are no more than 1/4” (6.35mm) wide.

6. If galling is detected, adjust the rollers for the proper clearance over the full length of the mast rails.

7. Check for proper lift chain adjustments.

8. Check for chain contact with retaining lip on sheaves.

Figure 3-6: Fork Heel to Floor

Forks Forks should be inspected for wear and cracks. If you suspect that the fork needs to be repaired, return it to the manufacturer or other expert of equal competence, for repair. Never try to repair surface cracks or wear by welding the fork.

Major Structural Points



CAUTION

Immediately pull forklift from service and repair if frame cracks are found.

Rust Or Corrosion Check the forklift frame, side panels, floor panels as well as mast assemblies for rust and corrosion. Clean rusty or corroded areas and repaint, if applicable. Apply a thin coat of oil to any bare metal surface.

Figure 3-5: Channel Galling 9. Measure the distance from the floor to the bottom heel of each fork tine. See Figure 3-6. This measurement must be 1/8” (3.175mm) minimum to 1/4” (6.35mm) maximum.

CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE

Floor Plate Removal

Brakes

The right floor panel provides access to the accelerator assembly which is mounted to the underside of the right floor plate. The master cylinder and service brake pedal and linkage are mounted within the frame well, under the left floor panel.

1. Thoroughly clean the floor area using a vacuum.

2. Without tearing, pull up the rubber floor mat.

3. Remove the left floor plate from the forklift frame. See Figure 5-4.

General Information Braking of the Bendi AC/DS forklift is accomplished by using the drive motor for restraining forklift, or by putting pressure on the brake pedal. When the accelerator is released, the moving motion of the forklift is restrained by the drive motors and occurs in both the forward and reverse direction. Stopping the forklift can also be done by the normal pressing of the brake pedal.

4. Carefully lift the right floor plate. The accelerator pedal assembly will still be attached to the right floor plate.

• If a problem is suspected, do not release or drive the forklift until the problem is corrected.

NOTICE

• Parts that are not in perfect working condition should not be used. It is recommended to only use genuine Landoll parts.

The accelerator module electrical harness will restrict how far the plate can be lifted. To fully remove the plate you must first disconnect the electrical harness.

5. Reassemble in reverse order.

• Safety must always be paramount when working on brake system components.

• If you are unsure about a procedure, contact a trained Landoll service technician.

• Wear eye protection. If brake fluid comes in contact with eyes, immediately rinse with water and seek medical attention.

• Use only DOT #3 brake fluid.

FLOOR MAT

• Brake fluid will damage paint. Cover all body parts and be careful not to spill brake fluid during brake maintenance.

• Brake pads must be replaced on both wheels at the same time. NEVER replace the pads on only one wheel to ensure that both sides have equal braking and to prevent premature wear and uneven braking action.

RIGHT FLOOR PLATE

LEFT FLOOR PLATE

• DO NOT use petroleum based solvents to clean brake parts. Use only brake cleaner or denatured alcohol.

• DO NOT use compressed air to blow particles from the brake assembly.

• Make sure you strictly adhere to all clearances and torque specifications.

ACCELERATOR MODULE Figure 5-4: Floor Plate 6. To remove the floor mat, remove two fasteners that hold floor mat in place. The fastener passes through the floor mat and floor plate to hold mat on forklift.

Remove floor plate to expose right side floor plate fasteners.

• If the contact surfaces of the rotor show cracks, score marks, deep grooves, a raised lip on the outer edge, or signs of overheating or warping, the rotor must be replaced.

• The disc brakes are inherently self-adjusting. NO adjustments are necessary or provided.

• When you are finished working on the brakes, test them carefully under controlled conditions before releasing the forklift for operation.

5-5

CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE

Check Service Disc Brakes

Required Tools

• The service brakes are hydraulically-actuated disc brakes, similar to an automotive disc brake system.

The brake calipers are installed onto the gearbox/motor assembly at the rear of the forklift.

Both SAE and metric open-end, box-end, Allen and adjustable wrenches along with assorted sockets and screwdrivers should be available to properly perform maintenance and repair.

• The brakes should be checked every 100 hours of operation. Normal brake pad life should reach approximately 3,000 hours of operation, but that figure can vary widely as determined by the operator and driving conditions. If you are near or beyond this time frame, you must inspect the brakes.

• Rotors require a dial gauge to check run-out, and a micrometer, calibrated in ten-thousandths of an inch, to check thickness.

• New brake pads are approximately 0.265” (6.7 mm) thick. Replace them when the pad thickness is 0.0625” (1.588 mm) or less.

• An ohm meter is required to test the parking brake switch.

• The service brake pedal must also have about 1/2” (12.7 mm) of the travel remaining when the brakes are fully applied. If less than 1/2” (12.7 mm) is available, check the pads for wear and replace as needed.

• To remove the rotor you will need a rubber mallet (dead-blow hammer) and a gear puller. Do not use an unprotected hammer.

• Brake rotor is fitted with threaded holes to ease disk removal. Use automatic steering wheel puller to prevent drive motor damage.

• Drive the forklift at creep speed and apply brakes lightly to determine if brake pads are contacting the disc (rotor). You should feel a slight pulsating effect as the pads contact the disc.

A few indications of possible brake pad replacement are: • Excess travel of the service brake pedal.

• The forklift pulling to one side when the brakes are applied.

• Squealing is heard when you apply the brakes.



CAUTION

Wear eye protection. If brake fluid comes in contact with your eyes, immediately rinse them with water and seek medical attention.



CAUTION

DO NOT release or operate the forklift if you are in doubt about the effectiveness of the parking brake system. Contact your Landoll service representative for assistance.

•

General Information • Whenever servicing and/or replacing a rotor assembly, you must service both sides of the forklift to prevent premature wear and uneven braking action.

• Check the rotors for scoring, cracks, deep grooves, raised lip on the outer edge, signs of overheating, rotor run-out or other damage. Rotor run-out should be measured while the rotor is being installed.

• Rotor thickness measurements may be checked with the rotor installed or removed from the forklift. Use a dial gauge to check run-out. Use a calibrated micrometer, calibrated in ten-thousandths of an inch, to check thickness. See Figure 5-6.

• Measure thickness, using a micrometer, at four or more points on the rotor and make sure all measurements are taken at the same distance inwards from the outer edge of the rotor.

• Thickness variations of more than 0.0005” (0.013 mm) can cause pedal pulsation and/or vibration when applying the brakes. A rotor that does not meet these specification must be replaced.

10. SLOWLY turn the rotor (wheel/tire) by hand by one or two revolutions and observe the total indicated run-out.

11. If the run-out exceeds 0.0031” (0.08mm), replace the rotor. DO NOT resurface the rotor.

Replacing the Brake Rotor Assemblies



CAUTION

• To remove the roto disk, you will need a puller and a rubber mallet (dead-blow hammer). DO NOT pry on rotor as this may bend motor shaft. DO NOT USE an unprotected hammer as damage to the rotor will render it unserviceable.

• When handling the new rotor protect the finish surfaces from damage, such as nicks, deep scratches, dents from dropping, corrosion, oil or grease contamination, etc.

Damage to the braking surfaces renders the rotor and pads defective.

11. Remove the 3/8”-24 X 1-1/2” hex head cap screws securing the brake caliper assembly to the mounting plate. Capture the spacers (if used) and keep any shims separate for each side.

12. Remove brake caliper assembly.

13. Loosen the flanged hex nut (3/4-16, Grade 8) and hardware from the motor shaft. DO NOT remove the nut from the assembly at this time.

14. The brake rotor is fitted with 2-3/8-16 threaded holes to allow the use of a steering wheeel puller.

15. Loosen the bolts mounting holding the motor to the frame enough to move the motor out to allow a gear puller to be put on the brake rotor.

16. Depending on the model and the amount of clearance available, you may have to remove one of the drive motor to remove the rotor from the armature.

NOTICE The removal of the drive motor can be done as a completed assembly. It needs to be slid out just enough for the rotor to clear.

17. Slide the rotor assembly from the keyed drive shaft and discard. DO NOT lose the woodruff key.

CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE 10. Remove the master cylinder fill cap and rubber diaphragm (two round head screws). See Figure 5-11.

11. Siphon out as much fluid as possible. Install and tighten the fill cap and diaphragm before removing the cylinder.

12. Place rags under the brake line connections. Have a plastic cup or bag handy to cover the end of the line to limit fluid spillage.

13. Using a flare-nut wrench, disconnect the brake fluid line at the rear of the cylinder.

14. Carefully pull the brake line away from the cylinder.

Seal or plug the brake line and master cylinder port to prevent fluid loss and/or contamination.

15. Disassemble the yoke from the master cylinder crank plate (one 5/16-18 screw and hardware).

16. Remove the two master cylinder mounting bolts and remove the cylinder from the forklift.

4. Press your finger tightly over the master cylinder outlet port to prevent air from being drawn back into the cylinder when you release the push rod, or feed a separate line (flexible tubing) from the cylinder port(s) and immerse the other end in the container of new brake fluid. Wait several seconds to allow fluid to be drawn from the reservoir to the cylinder bore, then repeat this step. When you push the push rod in again it will force your finger from the master cylinder outlet port to expel any trapped air. Place rags under the brake line fitting to manage any fluid loss.

5. When only brake fluid is expelled from the master cylinder outlet port, hold the push rod in and seat the master cylinder outlet port with an appropriate threaded plug or plastic cap, then release pressure on the push rod.

6. Fill the master cylinder reservoir and install the filler cap and gasket.

17. Remove the reservoir cap and discard any fluid remaining in the reservoir.

18. Mark the push rod lock nut setting, then remove the yoke and lock nut from the old cylinder and install it to the new cylinder, maintaining the same lock nut setting.

PUSH IN MASTER CYLINDER

19. Replace the new master cylinder in reverse order.

NOTICE • The push rod lock nut should be installed so that when the pedal is completely assembled and retracted, the yoke to the master cylinder crank plate hardware is loose.

• Whenever the master cylinder is removed or replaced, the hydraulic brake system must be bled. The time required to bleed the system can be reduced if the master cylinder is filled with brake fluid and bench-bled before installing the cylinder into the forklift.

Bench Bleed the Master Cylinder 1. Support the cylinder in a vise to prevent fluid spillage, while allowing you to push the internal piston with the push rod. See Figure 5-13.

2. Remove the filler cap and fill the cylinder with DOT #3 brake fluid.

3. Slowly push in on the rubber boot and cylinder plunger (push rod) assembly to force air from the cylinder, then hold the push rod in.

PUSH ROD PLUNGER AND RUBBER GROMMET CYLINDER OUTLET PORT

1. Remove the left floor plate. See Figure 5-4.

2. First, clean the reservoir cap to avoid fluid contamination, then remove the fill cap an rubber gasket.

3. Additional fluid is needed when the fluid level is below the FULL line stamped in the master cylinder housing body.

4. Add fluid as needed. DO NOT OVER FILL. Use only #3 DOT brake fluid from a clean, sealed source.

5. Reinstall the reservoir fill cap and rubber gasket.

Tighten only enough to provide a leak-proof seal.

5-18

F-649-R0

CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE

NOTICE DO NOT overtighten. This could crimp, split or damage the seal.

Bleeding Brakes Bleeding the brake system is necessary to remove any air that is trapped when replacing brake lines, brake calipers or the master cylinder. To avoid extensive damage to the system, use only #3 DOT brake fluid.

NOTICE Have an assistant available, as well as a supply of brake fluid, an empty clean container, a length of 3/16” (4.763 mm) clear plastic or vinyl tubing to fit over the cylinder bleeder fitting and a six point wrench to open and close the fitting.

1. First, review “Before You Begin” on page 1-1.

2. Park the forklift on a level surface.

3. Lower the forks all the way to the ground.

 •

•

CAUTION

Wear eye protection. If brake fluid comes in contact with your eyes, immediately rinse them with water and seek medical attention.

DO NOT allow fluids to go inside the brake caliper and onto the brake pad. It will contaminate the brake lining and cause failures.

4. Apply the parking brake.

5. Set the key switch to the OFF position and remove the key from the console.

6. Disconnect the battery.

7. Begin a Lock Out/Tag Out procedure.

8. Make sure all the other wheels are securely blocked so that the forklift cannot move.

9. Start with the right wheel (the wheel furthest from the master cylinder).

NOTICE Check the fluid level often during the bleeding operation and add fluid as needed to prevent the level from falling low enough to allow air into the master cylinder. Use only new #3 DOT brake fluid from a sealed container. NEVER use old or used brake fluid. It contains moisture which will deteriorate the brake system components.

NOTICE It is necessary to bleed both wheels if air has entered the system. Air in the brake system can be caused by low fluid level or if a brake line has been leaking or disconnected. If the brake pedal feels spongy when pressed and travels almost to the mechanical stop but regains height when pumped, air has entered the system. The system must be bled. If no fittings were recently opened for service, check for leaks that would have allowed air into the system repair leaks before attempting to bleed the system.

10. Loosen the bleeder fitting slightly, then tighten it where it is snug but can be loosened quickly and easily.

11. Fit a length of tubing over the bleed screw and immerse the other end in the container of new brake fluid. Check that the tubing fits tightly over the bleeder fitting. See Figure 5-14.

12. Check fluid level in the master cylinder. Fill before you begin.

13. Have someone slowly press on the brake pedal several times to build pressure in the system, then hold the pedal down.

NOTICE Be careful when handling bleeder screws. Rust may cause the fitting to break. Spray the fitting with penetrating oil before attempting to loosen.

Use a 6 sided wrench instead of a 12-sided wrench.

14. Loosen the cylinder bleed screw until fluids starts to flow. Watch for air bubbles at the immersed end of the tube.

15. When the brake pedal bottoms, tighten the bleed screw then release the pedal. DO NOT release pressure of the pedal until the bleed screw is tightened.

16. Repeat steps 8 through 11 as many times as needed until the fluid draining into the container is free of air bubbles.

5-19

CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE 17. Fill the master cylinder fluid level and add as needed before bleeding the other side.

18. Check the operation of the brakes. The pedal should feel solid when depressed, with no softness. If necessary, repeat this procedure.

Checking and Adjusting Hydraulic Pressure For ease of checking hydraulic pressure, Landoll offers a Pressure Check Kit (P/N 0018152) which includes a 5,000psi (345 bar) gauge, hose, and quick-coupler assembly. If you are using your own system, have shop rags, oil absorbent and a small container ready to collect any oil spills.



CAUTION

DO NOT hold a hydraulic control bottomed out for excessive periods of time. Extreme pressure is applied to the system which can, over periods of time, generate excessive heat, damage oil and internal components. If the pressure is low and cannot be adjusted to the proper value, check the pump and make sure there are no leaks in the hydraulic system. If the pressure is too high and cannot be adjusted to the proper pressure, replace the relief valve.

Hydraulic Control Valve Assembly The following procedure explains how to replace a valve should a sluggish or sticking valve spool be suspect.

Before you service this valve for possible pressure problems, make sure there are no leaks in the hydraulic system and that there is sufficient oil in the tank. Both conditions can contribute to low pressure problems.

The main hydraulic pump for lift, tilt and shift (mast functions) is a fixed displacement gear pump. System pressure must not exceed 3,000 psi, ±65 psi (20 bar, ±4.5 bar) maximum. Actual pressure is determined by mast size, load requirements and lift speed. See reference chart below: Bendi AC/DS Pump Speed in RPM’s

CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE

Check Planetary Gear Box The planetary drive gearbox assemblies (right and left side) are filled with oil at the factory. An oil change is necessary after the first 50 hours maximum of operation in order to remove particles worn down during the running-in phase. Thereafter, an oil change is only required once every 2000 hours or yearly, whichever comes first. Also, if the forklift has been in storage for one year or more, the change the oil before placing the forklift into operation.



DANGER

• Perform service only in a well-ventilated area.

• Do not breathe the vapors.

• Wear protective goggles, aprons, and gloves.

• Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothes.

• Failure to observe these precautions may result in death or injury.

• If you become dizzy, get fresh air and medical help immediately.

• If a solvent contacts your eyes, immediately treat in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations on the container.

• Do not mix different types of lubricants.

Always read the label affixed to the lubricant’s container for all safety information before use.

• Getting under a forklift when it is lifted or jacked is dangerous and could cause serious injury or death. NEVER go under a forklift that is supported only be a jack.



CAUTION

• Always place an appropriate support stand under the forklift if it is being lifted. Lower the forklift to the stand, having both the lifting device and stand supporting the weight of the forklift.

• If the forklift has been in operation recently for any period of time the oil could be very hot. Use special gloves and/or allow the forklift to cool completely before changing the oil. It is best to drain fluid while the unit is warm, but not HOT. Never drain oil into sewer lines.

Chapter 6

Calibration and Programming Controller Theory of Operation The Bendi AC/DS forklift uses Curtis controllers that convert DC, i.e., battery power, to 3-phase AC. This allows for high bandwidth, efficiency, and low ripple torque generation. The Bendi AC/DS forklift uses 3 controllers, (master, pump, and slave) and a single dash display to control the various actions of the electrical systems. The master and slave controllers use the 2 drive motor assemblies along with an analog steer-angle sensor to:

Dash Display Key Legend 1. “Enter Key” - Used to Enter the Calibration Mode and to make selections after they are located.

2. “Up Key” - Used to move “Up” through the selections.

3. “Down Key” - Used to move “Down” through the selections.

You must hold the enter button down until the change has been accepted.

• Independently control the inner and outer wheel speed, forklift speed, and acceleration.

• Maintain a balanced wheel speed when moving straight.

• Implement a Limited Operation Strategy (LOS) in the case of a single drive motor failure, a sensor failure, or a partial controller failure for limp-home operation.

The master controller controls: • The parking brake switch.

• The service brake pedal sensor.

• The left drive motor assembly and sensor.

• The seat switch.

• The directional control switch.

• The battery rollout switch. (optional) • The speed mode selection switch.

Figure 6-1: Dash Display Keys

• The accelerator pedal.

The slave controller controls: • The right drive motor assembly and sensor.

• The steer-angle sensor.

The pump controller controls: • The pump motor assembly and sensor.

• The hydraulic control valve switches and sensors, i.e., tilt-switch, side shift switch, and the lift sensor.

Larger values create a softer reversal from regen braking to drive when near zero speed.

This helps soften the transition when the regen and drive current limits are set to different values.

Controls the rate at which the maximum speed set point is allowed to change when the value of Max Speed is raised. The rate set by this parameter is the time to ramp from 0 rpm to Typical Max Speed rpm.

Ex. suppose Max Speed is raised from 1000 rpm to 4000 rpm. If Typical Max Speed is 5000 rpm, and the rate is 10.0 seconds, it will take 10.0 * (4000 - 1000) / 5000 = 6.0 seconds to ramp from 1000 rpm to 4000 rpm.

Controls the rate at which the maximum speed set point is allowed to change when the value of Max Speed is lowered.

Ex. suppose you change Max Speed from 4500 rpm to 2500 rpm. If Typical Max Speed is 5000 rpm, and the rate is 5.0 seconds, it will take 5.0 * (4500 - 2500) / 5000 = 2.0 seconds to ramp from 4500 rpm to 2500 rpm.

Definition

Range

The reset voltage level is checked only once, when KSI is first turned on. Note that the BDI Reset Percent parameter also influences the algorithm that determines whether BDI percentage is reset to 100%. Reset Volts Per Cell should always be set higher than Full Volts Per Cell. Reset Voltage Level = Reset Volts Per Cell × number of cells in the battery pack.

Do NOT modify this from the Landoll default setting.

The full voltage level sets the key switch voltage that is considered to be 100% state-of-charge; when a loaded battery drops below this voltage, it begins to lose charge. Key switch voltage is viewable in the 1314 menu Monitor » Battery. Full Voltage Level = Full Volts Per Cell × number of cells in the battery pack.

Do NOT modify this from the Landoll default setting.

The empty voltage level sets the key switch voltage that is considered to be 0% state-of-charge. Empty Voltage Level = Empty Volts Per Cell × number of cells in the battery pack.

Do NOT modify this from the Landoll default setting.

Sets the minimum time for the BDI algorithm to count down the BDI percentage from 100% to 0%. State of Charge Level = ((Full Voltage Level - Empty Voltage Level) × BDI Percentage / 100) + Empty Voltage Level.

When a battery has a high BDI percentage, its float voltage at KSI On can sometimes cause false resets. The BDI Reset Percent parameter addresses this problem by allowing the user to define a BDI percentage value above which the BDI Percentage variable will not reset. When KSI is first powered on, the BDI percentage variable will reset to 100% only if (Key Switch Voltage > Reset Voltage Level) and (BDI Percentage < BDI Reset Percent).

Watchdog failure or no software loaded. Cycle key switch, and if necessary load software.

Controller has detected a fault.

Red LED and A 2-digit code flashed by the yellow LED yellow LED identifies the flashing specific fault. alternately One or two flashes by red LED indicate whether first or second code digit will follow.

Wait for the red LED to blink once. Count the number of times the yellow LED blinks for the 1st digit. Wait for the red LED to blink twice. Count the number of times the yellow LED blinks for the 2nd digit.

The 1314 programmer can be used to access the controller’s fault history. Click on the icon as shown in “Fault Monitor” on page 6-24 and select the appropriate option. If you select Fault History, the programmer will read our all of the faults the controller has experienced since the last time the fault history was cleared. See Figure 6-24. After a problem has been diagnosed and corrected, clear the Fault History. This can be achieved by highlighting the individual fault, right clicking it, and clicking Clear. This allows the controller to accumulate a new list of faults which can help determine if a problem was indeed fixed.

NOTICE After successfully re-flashing a controller, make sure to clear the fault history of all comments.

See Figure 6-22. For illustration, see photo or refer to Controller panel Figure 6-5, or the left, pump and right controllers, the interconnect cables and the LED lights.

Possible Causes 1. KSI, interlock, direction, and throttle inputs applied in incorrect sequence.

2. Bad crimp, faulty wiring or KSI switch.

See Monitor menu » Inputs.

X X 1. This is a safety fault caused by a change in certain parameter settings so that the vehicle will not operate until KSI is cycled. For example, if a user changes the Throttle Type, this fault will appear and require cycling KSI before the vehicle can operate.

Set/Clear Conditions Set: HPD (High Pedal Disable) or sequencing fault caused by incorrect sequence if KSI, interlock, direction and throttle inputs.

Clear: Reapply correct input sequence.

Set: Adjustment of a parameter setting that requires cycling of KSI. Clear: Cycle KSI.

X X 1. VCL code encountered a runtime VCL error.

2. See Monitor menu » Controller:VCL Error Module and VCL Error. This error can then be compared to the runtime VCL module ID and error code definitions found in the specific OS system information file.

Set: Runtime VCL code error condition.

Clear: Edit VCL application software to fix this error condition; flash the new compiled software and matching parameter defaults; cycle KSI.

X X 1. External load on the 5V and 12V supplies draws either too much or too little current.

2. Fault Checking Menu parameters Ext Supply Max and Ext Supply Min are mistuned.

3. See Monitor menu » Outputs: Ext Supply Current.

Set: The external supply current (combined current used by the 5V supply [pin 26} and 12V supply {pin 25}) is either greater than the upper current threshold or lower than the low current threshold. The two thresholds are defined by the External Supply Max and External Supply Min parameter settings.

Clear: Bring the external supply current within range.

Clear: Adjust parameters to appropriate values for your application and cycle KSI.

Controller Maintenance There are no user serviceable parts in the Curtis 1234/36/38 controllers. No attempt should be made to open, repair, or modify the controller. Modifying the controller will void the warranty. It is recommended that the controllers and connections be kept clean and dry and that the controller’s fault history file be checked and cleared during service.

Controller Cleaning Periodically cleaning the controller exterior will help protect it against corrosion and possible electrical problems created by debris that is part of the operating environment. When working around any battery powered system, proper safety precautions should be taken.

NOTICE Never use a pressure washer to clean the controller.

Use the following cleaning procedure for routine maintenance: 1. Remove power by disconnecting the battery.

2. Discharge the capacitors in the controller by connecting a load across the controller’s B+ and B terminals.

3. Remove any dirt or corrosion from the power and signal connector areas. The controller should be wiped clean with a moist rag. Dry it before reconnecting the battery.

4. Make sure the connections are tight.
