Gas Engine
The Bendi B40i4 Model truck is powered by a liquefied
petroleum gas (LPG) engine and is designed to minimize
harmful emissions.Fuel is supplied from a standard 33 or
43 lb. ICC gas cylinder tank mounted horizontally on the
rear deck of the truck. The tank is held in the tank mount
plate attached to the truck using a strap and latch. See
Figure 3-5 on page 3-5.An ultrasonic fuel level sensor is
mounted to the back mount plate. This sensor provides
the operator with an accurate quantity of fuel left through
the dash display.The engine muffler is equipped with
baffles to block the ejection of sparks or flame, and meets
standards required by the Forest Service of the U.S.
Department on Agriculture.
DANGER
Engine Care
The gas engine should be maintained per manufacturer’s
requirements. This includes regular oil changes,
checking and replacement of belts and filters, checking
coolant levels, and checking engine compression. Refer
to the Service Manual for more specific information
concerning proper maintenance and care of engine.
Service/Maintenance Safety
When it becomes necessary to do any service repair or
maintenance to the truck, it is important to first review the
following safety guidelines.
WARNING
1.
Be sure you have sufficient knowledge, experience,
the proper tools and replacement parts before you
attempt any truck maintenance.
2.
Be sure to use proper nuts, bolts and other fasteners.
Many are specifically rated; that is, SAE Grade 5,
SAE Grade 8, ISO Prop Class 8.8, etc., and must be
replaced with the identical type. It is recommended to
use only Landoll authorized replacement parts.
WARNING
3.
Whenever possible, return the truck to a service area
having sufficient lighting, work space and an
assortment of tools needed to complete the service.
4.
Set the Keyswitch to OFF and set the direction
control lever to NEUTRAL.
5.
Perform the Lock Out/Tag Out procedure.
6.
Make sure all lifting devices and supports, such as, a
support or jack stand, are capable of handling the
weight of the load being applied.
WARNING
7.
Always place an appropriate support stand under the
truck if it is being lifted, then lower the truck on to the
stand, having both the lifting device and stand
supporting the weight of the truck.
DANGER
8.
Fully open the required truck covers and be sure they
are braced to prevent accidental closing.
Do not smoke, use and open flame, or create arcs
or sparks near the LPG propane tank. Gas is very
flammable and can cause the canister to explode,
causing serious injury or death.
You could be injured and the forklift could be
damaged if you try to do service work without
proper training or equipment.
If you use the wrong nuts, bolts or other
fasteners, parts will later break, stretch or loosen.
Serious injury could occur.
• To be certain the truck will not move, place
wedges (or blocks of wood) at the front and
back of the tires.
• If you are servicing the bearings or tires,
place the blocks at the front and rear of the
tires farthest away from the one being
serviced. (The tire on the opposite side of the
truck and at the opposite end.)
Getting under a truck when it is lifted or jacked is
dangerous and could cause serious injury or
death. Never go under a truck that is supported
by only a jack.
