INSPECTION AND SERVICE
1-39
If the bolts and nuts of the split rim assembly are removed, the
rims, bolts or nuts might blow off due to the internal pressure of
the tire, to cause a serious personal injury.
•
When replacing the rim assembly, install a new rim assembly
with the head of each of the dowel bolts of the rim assembly
pointing outside. (This helps make it difficult to loosen the rim
bolts with the tire attached to the truck. Some bolts have a
special shape for this purpose.)
•
After replacing tires, test run the truck to check to see if the hub
nuts are securely tightened. If a loose hub nut is found, tighten
it to the specified torque.
Leave the disassembly and reassembly of tires, tubes
and rims to a specialist
The inflation pressure of tires of the lift truck is very high (about
700 - 1,000 kPa) and thus due caution must be required to
disassemble or reassemble the tires. An improperly reassembled
tire might cause explosion to let parts fly into pieces, resulting in a
serious personal injury.
Keep the tension of the right and left chains even
Uneven tension of the right and left chains means uneven loads
even if they are properly placed on the forks. It may also lead to
broken chains.
Keep sideview mirrors, backup alarm, and lamps in
good working condition
Adjust the sideview mirrors to gain a full rear vision and keep the
mirror’s surface clean (if so equipped). The backup buzzer should
sound when the direction change lever is placed in the reverse
position. If the buzzer fails to sound, have it repaired. Make sure
the lamps turn on and off properly. Burned-out bulbs must be
replaced with new ones.
Avoid fire hazards
•
Wipe away any spilt lubricant or fuel inside the engine room.
•
Do not leave waste cloth or paper contaminated with fuel or
lubricant inside the engine room; it can cause fire hazards.
•
The exhaust pipe, muffler and exhaust manifold are hot
immediately after the engine has been shut off or while the
engine is running.
