4000 Hours Service

Prepare the dump truck before service, maintenance and other work on the dump truck. Take every precaution for safe work. If more than one person shall perform work, one person should supervise to maintain the safety. 1.Park on a level ground and apply the parking brake. 2.Apply the articulation lock (see item 23).

Block the wheels (see item 22). 3.Stop the engine and remove starter switch key if not necessary for the work. Disconnect the main switch in the battery compartment in front fender.

4.Secure the dump truck from being operated by accident or by persons unauthorised by attaching a warning label to the steering wheel. Do not allow persons to approach the area unnecessarily. 5.Be aware of hot fluids and components. 6.Drop the air system pressures (see item 26). 7.Block up all lifted components to prevent them from falling during work/stand underneath. Before starting up after the work, make sure the dump truck is in operationable condition.

22.Wheel chocks

Always place wheel chocks under the wheels to avoid spontaneous rolling: •when parking •during maintenance and other work •during transportation.

The lock prevents the dump truck turning when applied. •Apply the lock: 1.Take out the spring cotter, lift the pin and swing the linkage forward into the hinge ear. 2.Insert the pin through linkage and ear and refit the spring cotter.

•Release the lock:

1.Take out the spring cotter, and remove the pin through the linkage and ear. 2.Swing the linkage backwards, insert the pin through the linkage and ear, and refit the spring cotter.

The lock must always be applied: •During maintenance, greasing and other work. •When lifting or hoisting the truck, see item 24. •During dump truck transportation, see item 25.

24.Lifting / hoisting

1.Apply the articulation lock (see item 23). 2.Open and secure (see item 19) the bonnet. 3.Fit suitable lifting wires or chains to the hoisting points at both sides of the body and engine, and use a suitable lifting beam as shown.

Machine net weight: approx.27,800 kg (MT40B) 28,280 kg (MT40B Coal Hauler).

WARNING

Never lift or hoist a loaded truck, the points are intended for an empty dump truck only!

1.Apply the parking brake. 2.Apply the articulation lock. 3.Apply wheel chocks. Fit suitable wires or chains to the tie down points as shown and tighten them up.

CAUTION

Always transport the truck without load in the body!

26.High pressure

Be aware of high pressure in the hydraulic system (with running engine), air system, brake fluid system (with operated service brakes) and tyres. Do not strike or bend pressure hoses or tubes. Do not use bare hands for checking leaks, use shield as protection to avoid personal injury. Even a pin-hole size leak can penetrate the skin. Always release pressure before maintenance or servicing: Hydraulic: Stop the engine. Be aware of possible hot oil. Air: Stop the engine, drain all air tanks, see chapter 7, Daily maintenance.

Tyres: Release the pressure through the rim nipple before attempting to remove any imbedded objects or removing tyre/rim assembly from the machine. The pressures inside tyres are substantial and an explosion can cause damage and serious personal injury. Never heat or weld on rims or surrounding areas when the tyre is inflated. Stand behind the tread when inflating a tyre.

The following labels are related to safety and should always be present and easy to read. Do not cover labels with paint or simular:
