500 Hours Service

To be performed every 8 hours of operation or daily.

1. General

1.1. Walk around check, before start

• Check for leaks at the engine (see also item 2.1), transmission, differentials, reduction/tandem housings, tanks, hydraulic hoses and lubrication system. • General check for loose bolts on the driveline, specially on radiator, engine/transmission brackets and at the prop. shaft flanges. • Check for damage, wear and other abnormalities on the visible parts of frames, body, tyres, cylinders, etc. • Check lights. Replace burnt out bulbs. If leakages, loose bolts, damages or other abnormalities are observed, remedy if necessary (before operation). If necessary contact your local Moxy Dealer.

Breather, front differential

Breather, front differential

The breather for the front differential is located under the cab, on the right hand side of the transmission.

CAUTION

Donot fill any oil or other fluid into the breather reservoir!

1.2. Check driver's seat, before start

• Check function.

• Check all seat adjustments for easy operation. • Check function of the air valve.

• Check safety belt for proper lock functions. See chapter 3, seat adjustment, for more detailed information.

To be performed every 8 hours of operation or daily.

2. Engine

2.1. General condition check - look for leakages

Remedy as necessary

1.Start the engine. 2.Look for leakage of oil, coolant, fuel, air and exhaust. 3.Tighten or change leaking connections. Check the overflow holes (1) which show whether the O-rings between the cylinder liner and crankcase are leaking, see drawing. a. If coolant is leaking out, the two upper O-rings are leaking. b. If oil is leaking out, the lower O-ring is leaking. 4.A small amount of leakage from the overflow holes during the engine's running-in period is normal. (Seals and O-rings are lubricated with soap or oil when fitted). This leakage normally stops after a time. If there is a large amount of leakage - contact your Moxy Dealer.

2.2. Check oil level, before start 1*

• If the engine has been running: Let the engine remain stationary for at least 1 minute before checking the oil level. • The dipstick (1) is found on the left hand side of the engine. • The correct level shall be between upper and lower mark on the dip stick (1) (dump truck on level ground). • Fill up with oil (2) if level has dropped to the lower mark. See oil specification sheet, chapter 6 for correct oil type. • Check level correctness.

To be performed every 8 hours of operation or daily.

2.3. Check coolant level, before start 5*

• The level in the expansion tank shall be between minimum and maximum when the dump truck is on level ground. See marks. Refill with coolant of correct mixture if level is lower than minimum.

• If large quantities are required to correct the level, check and remedy the cause in such a case.

CAUTION

Be careful when removing the filler cap of a hot engine. Hot coolant and steam can spurt out! Never add large amounts of cold coolant when engine is hot. The temperature difference can cause cracks in the engine. Always top up with pre-mixed coolant.

2.4. Check fuel level, before start 13*

1.Turn on the starter switch key (to pos. 1) and check on the fuel gauge that there is enough fuel (1). 2.Fill up with fuel if necessary (2).

NOTE

Always make sure that there is enough fuel in the tank. NEVER run out of fuel.

To be performed every 8 hours of operation or daily.

2.5. Function check of the centrifugal cleaner, after operation 2*

The rotor rotates very fast, and will normally carry on rotating after the engine is stopped. 1.Stop the engine when it is hot. 2.Listen for spinning sound from rotor, or feel if cleaner housing vibrates. 3.The rotor normally rotates 30 - 60 seconds after the engine has stopped. 4.If not, dismantle and check the cleaner, see 500 hours service.

2.6. Drain air tanks, after operation 12*

• Two air tanks are located on the fire wall under the bonnet.

• From serial no 710353 - an additional air tank is located inside the fender, right hand side. • Pull the drain chain on the underside of the tanks sideways to release the air pressure. • If condensation is present in the escaping air, release system pressure completely and replace the air dryer, see 2000 hours service.

From serial no 710353 - an additional air tank is located inside the fender, right hand side.

To be performed every 8 hours of operation or daily.

3. Transmission

3.1. Check oil level, before operation 20*

1.The dump truck must be standing on level ground. 2.The gear selector shall be in neutral and confirm that the parking brake is ON. 3.Run the engine at low idle. 4.Turn the dip stick handle (behind the cab, right hand side) a few turns to the left to release the seal pressure. 5.Pull out the dip stick and clean it with a clean cloth. 6.Insert dip stick fully and remove it again (at least 2x) 7.Check level: Cold oil, 40 °C: lower mark Hot oil, 80 °C: upper mark 8.If necessary correct the level by adding oil according to the transmission oil list (chapter 6) through the dip stick tube.

9.Insert the dip stick again and turn handle clockwise to tighten the sealing.

CAUTION

Use gloves when checking the oil level or filling oil. The exhaust pipes and nearby area may be hot and fingers and hands could be burnt.

Do not overfill with oil! Both too high and too low level can cause serious internal damage!

To be performed every 8 hours of operation or daily.

4. Hydraulic system

4.1. Check oil level, before start 40*

1.Read the oil level in the oil level gauges (located on the back of the hydraulic tank). •The upper gauge shows max. level at warm oil •The lower gauge shows min. level at cold oil. 2.Fill up with oil (see oil specification sheet, chapter 6) if necessary. Oil filler located on the top of the hydraulic filter.

NOTE

The dump truck must be horizontal and dump body completely lowered!

To be performed every 8 hours of operation or daily.

5. Brake system

5.1. Check brake fluid levels, before start 60*

Two reservoirs on the fire wall under the bonnet.

• The reservoirs shall be min. 2/3 filled (see marks).

Fill up with correct brake fluid, if necessary. •If the reservoirs have to be filled up with brake fluid often (i.e. montly), check the brake system for leaks and/ or worn brake linings. Replace brake linings if necessary. • If the brake fluid level drops to minimum, the brake fluid warning light will illuminate. Check the brake linings and replace them if necessary (see 500 hours service).

Fill up the brake fluid reservoirs with correct brake fluid.

CAUTION

• When refilling, do not overfill! • Use only brake fluid as specified in the specification sheet, chapter 6!

To be performed every 8 hourr of operation or daily.

6. Lubrication

Grease lubrication points until pure grease is forced out of the components. Wipe off.
