Special Precautions

General

This section has the description and repair procedures
for the master drive unit (MDU). The traction motor,
steering, and brake repair procedures are in separate
sections. The main parts of the drive unit are the hous-
ing, pinion (motor), first intermediate gear set, second
intermediate gear set, drive gear, bearings, axle, wheel,
and spindle. The spindle is bolted to the top of the drive
unit has tapered bearings installed for the mounting of
the MDU to the frame. The steering control handle fas-
tens to the MDU. The traction motor fastens to the drive
unit. The drive unit and the traction motor turn as a unit
for steering.

In some instances, it may only be necessary to remove
the drive motor and brake assembly to work on the
MDU, while in other cases, the MDU must be com-
pletely removed. Determine the extent of disassembly
required before proceeding with any repairs.

Description

The MDU is a triple reduction drive unit. The three sets
of gears do not need adjustment for wear. All the parts
that rotate have ball bearings or tapered roller bearings.
The ball bearings are lubed by gear oil and the tapered
roller bearings are packed with multipurpose #2 grease
with 2% to 4% molybdenum disulfide. A pinion gear on
the motor armature drives the first of the three reduction
gears. The second intermediate gear engages the drive

gear. The drive gear is mounted on the drive axle. The
drive axle is the mount for the final drive gear and the
wheel.

A spring applied/electrically released friction brake is
mounted to the drive motor between the motor and the
MDU. See the section

Brakes

1800 YRM 1005 for ad-

ditional information on the electrical brake.

Special Precautions

WARNING

Block each side of the truck under the drive unit
frame. Position blocks on both sides of the load
wheels to prevent the truck from falling.

WARNING

The capacitor in the transistor controller can hold
an electrical charge after the battery is discon-
nected. Discharge the capacitor before inspecting
or repairing any component in the MDU compart-
ment to prevent personal injury and damage to
the electrical system. Make certain the battery has
been disconnected.

DO NOT use a screwdriver

to make a short circuit across the B+ and B
terminals of the transistor controller. Always wear
safety glasses.

WARNING

Perform the following steps before performing any
troubleshooting or adjustments, and before con-
necting or disconnecting a handset or personal
computer to avoid personal injury and prevent
electrical shock.

1.

Verify that the key switch is in the

OFF

position and

the battery connector is completely disconnected.
