FIGURE 1 - LOGIC DIAGRAMCOMPONENT REPAIR AND TESTING
GENERAL
1. Tocheck for wire connections to the frame, discon-
nect the battery so that the connector is completely free
and use an ohmmeter to check the circuits. Check for
50,000 ohms or more between each terminal of the part
of the battery connector on the lift truck and aclean con-
nection on the frame. Make sure there are no electrical
‘connections tothe frame of the lift truck. Wires or termi-
nals without insulation can cause these connections.
Isolators for circuit boards that are missing, broken or
not installed correctly can also cause these connections.
2. Checkfor voltage between each terminal of the con-
rector on the battery and a clean metal connection on the
frame ofthe lift truck. Itis normal to measure some volt-
age between the battery and the frame even if the resis-
tance checks are correct. Ifa voltage is measured, use an
ammeter to determine if the level is acceptable. Current
in excess of 100 milliamperes can cause a problem.
‘There can be a voltage on the frame ifthe battery is dirty
or if the battery has a defect. Clean the battery and bat-
tery compartment as necessary. There can also be a volt
age on the frame if there is carbon dust in the motors.
Use dry compressed air to remove the carbon dust from
all motors.
CONTACTOR PANEL ASSEMBLY
Description/Features
‘The contactor panel assembly is supplied as asubassem-
bly complete with wiring. It contains the main, forward/
reverse and steering pump contactors, all fuses, and the
associated wiring and components. The lift pump con-
tactoris mounted separately. All ofthe components used
are commen for all of this series of lift trucks, whether
the lift truck is using a 24 volt or 36 volt battery. All of
the components are located so that they are easy to see,
test and maintain,
‘The contactor panel assembly is located behind the op-
erator’ compartment cover on the right hand side of the
truck. Access to the contactor panel requires removing,
the cover. The fuses, “ER” (enable relay), main contac-
tor, power steering contactor and the forward/reverse
contactor are mounted on this panel assembly.

1. Move the lift truck toa safe level crea. Turn the key
switch off and remove the key. Put a “DO NOT OPER-
ATE” tag on the MFCH. Put blocks under the drive
wheels to keep the lift truck from moving. See the sec-
tion, PERIODIC MAINTENANCE, 8000 SRM 578.
Refer to HOW TO PUT A LIFT TRUCK ONTO
BLOCKS,A warnine
Disconnect the battery and separate the connector
before opening the compartment cover or inspecting
or repairing the electrical system. If a tool causes a
short-circuit, the high current flow from the battery
can cause an injury or parts damage.
2. Disconnect the battery and separate the connectors.
3. Remove the socket head capscrews retaining the
coverto the frame. Remove the operator’s compartment
cover for access to the contactor panel assembly.
A WwaRNING
‘The capacitor in the traction motor controller can
hold an electrical charge after the battery is discon-
nected. To prevent electrical shock and injury, dis-
charge the capacitor before inspecting or repairing
any component. Wear safety glasses. Make certain
the battery has been disconnected. Discharge the ca-
pacitors in the controller by connecting a load (such
as a contactor coil or a horn) across the controller’s
B+ and B— terminals (center 2 terminals). DO
NOT use a screwdriver to discharge the traction mo-
tor controler.
4, Discharge the controller by connecting load
across terminals B+ and B—. Disconnect the plug to
the main wiring harness.
NOTE: The contactor panel assembly does not nor-
mally have to be removed from the lift truck. The steps
listed above must be done to service any item that is at-
tached to the contactor panel assembly.
5. To remove the panel assembly, tag and disconnect,
the power wires to the contactors and the fuses.
6. Unplug the control wires from the main wire har-
ness at the X-5 connector.
7. Remove the capscrew, flat washer, lockwasher and
‘nut retaining the top of the panel assembly to the frame.
Remove the two nuts, lockwashers, and flat washers re-
taining the bottom of the panel assembly to the frame.
Remove the contactor panel assembly.
Installation
1. Align the contactor panel with the mounting holes
in the frame. Install the two flat washers, lockwashers
and nuts on the bottom of the panel assembly. Install the
capscrew, flat washer, lockwasher and nut to retain the
top of the panel assembly.
2. Install the power wires and fuses. See the section,
DIAGRAMS, 8000 SRM 579 for additional informa-
tion.
3. Reconnect the control wires.
4, Connect the battery and test the operation of the
truck.
5. Remove the blocks from under the drive wheels, re-
move the “DO NOT OPERATE” tag and install the key.
CONTACTORS
Contactors are switches, controlled by electromagnets
(coils), that close and open a power circuit, The MIB and
traction motor controller have internal electronic driv-
€ers to control the current to the coils of the contactors.
‘The electromagnetic field in the coil moves the armature
against spring pressure to close the contact. When the
coil is deenergized, the spring pressure moves the arma-
ture and opens the contacts. When a spring holds the
contacts of a switch open, the switch is called normally
open (NO). If a spring holds the contacts of a switch
closed, the switch is called normally closed (NC)
FIGURE 3 - TYPICAL SPNO CONTACTOR
ASSEMBLY
‘The contactor contacts are made of special silver alloy
The contacts will normally look black and rough from
normal operation, This condition does not cause prob-
3lems with the operation of the lift truck. Cleaning is not
necessary. DO NOT USE A FILE ON THE CON-
TACTS. DO NOT LUBRICATE THE CONTACTS.
Replace the contacts when the silver alloy is worn away
to the base support metal.
Lift trucks equipped with a power steering circuit have
contactors with one set of single pole normally open
‘contacts (SPNO). See FIGURE 3.
FIGURE 4 ~ DIRECTION CONTACTOR
A typical set of direction contactors is shown in
FIGURE 4. The direction contactors (FORWARD and
REVERSE) each have two sets of NC and NO contacts.
When a coil for a direction contactor is energized, the
NO contac's close and the NC contacts open. This de-
sign preveats the contacts from being closed in the
wrong sequence.
Testing
A warNinc
Parts of this procedure requires working on the lift
truck with full electrical current present. Do not
wear any rings, a watch or any other Jewelry while
working around the contactor panel assembly.
When manually closing a contactor with the power
connected, use a properly insulated tool.
1, Block the lift truck so that the drive wheels are off
the floor. See the section, PERIODIC MAINTE-
NANCE, 8000 SRM 578. Refer to HOW TO PUT A
LIFT TRUCK ONTO BLOCKS. Make certain that the
hydraulic controls are in the neutral position.
4
2, Remove the operator's compartment cover.
& caution
Never operate the traction motor at full speed for
more than a few seconds without a load when the
drive wheels are off the floor. A series wound DC mo-
tor will continue to accelerate indefinitely until it ex-
ceeds its designed maximum rpm, at which point it
will self-destruct.
3. Check the condition of the battery. If it is not fully
charged, charge or replace the battery with a fully
charged battery before continuing,
4, Visually check to see if the contactor closes when
the circuit is energized. If the contactor closes, skip to
Step 10. Ifthe contactor does not close, proceed to Step
5.
5. Connect a voltmeter across the coil terminals.
Verify that the correct voltage is being applied to the coil
with the circuit energized. See TABLE 1
CONTACTOR COR | agoroximate | Approximate
Foward/Reverse 2avots | _24,volts
Main-24 volt tuck 24voits | 8 vols
Main-36 volt tuck 36 volts | 12 vols
Lit Pump 2avots | 12 volts
Power Steering/Aux.Pump | 24vots | 12 volts
NOTE: Pullin voltage occurs for only approximately 1
‘second. Some voltmeters may not display this voltage.
TABLE I - CONTACTOR COIL VOLTAGES
6. Check the contactor for loose, broken or corroded
connections at the contactor.
7. Check the mechanical function of the contactor. Use
an insulated tool, such as an electricians screwdriver to
‘manually close the contactor tips. Check for looseness
or binding of the moving parts of the contactor. The
parts should move freely, but the parts must not be so
loose that the movement is sloppy.
8. Visually check the tips for pitting, burning or wear.
9. Ifan external suppressor is attached to the coil, re-
move the suppressor. Check the ohm value of the con-
tactor coil. Compare the reading against the ohm values
for the type of contactor being tested. See TABLE 2,Page 8 for coil resistance values. Readings not within
the listed limits indicate the following:
High Resistance . Corrosion or an open coil
Low Resistance .. Shorted or a burnt coil
NOTE: No external suppressors are used on contac-
tor coils which are controlled by the MIB or the traction
‘motor controller. The MIB and traction motor controller
have internal suppressors for these contactor coils.
10. If the contactor closes but the truck does not work
properly, check the electrical function of the high cur-
rent section of the contactor (the tips and buss bars).
With the lift truck battery connected and all switches
closed, connect a volt ohmmeter across the high current
terminals of the contactor.
Set the voltage scale of the meter to the lowest range
higher than battery voltage (50 volts for a 36 volt bat-
tery, etc.). On forward and reverse contactors, with the
contactor open, a reading of zero volts should be ob-
tained. As the contactor closes, the meter should jump
then immediately drop to zero or close to zero. This is
the voltage drop across the contactor. On pump contac~
tors, read the voltage across the contactor with the tips
open. Battery voltage should drop to zero or near zero as
the tips close.
A voltage drop of 2 volts or more across the tips indi-
cates a poor contact or high resistance. Check for burned
or wom tips, incorrect size or mismatched tips and for an
incorrect gap setting on contactors with adjustable point
gaps.

uMULTI-FUNCTION CONTROL HANDLE
Description/Features
‘The MFCH (multi-function contro! handle) is located in
the operator’s compartment with the handle positioned
toafford the operatora comfortable position from which
to operate the lft truck. Traction control, horn operation
and certain hydraulic functions (depending on hydraulic
control option) are controlled by using this single han-
dle
Rotating the MFCH forward activates travel in the for-
ward direction. Rotating the MFCH backward activates
travel in the reverse direction. Travel speed is also con-
trolled by the MFCH. Faster travel speeds are provided
as the MFCH is moved further from the neutral position.
‘The MFCH is spring loaded to allow handle to return to
the center (neutral position) when there is no pressure
applied,
‘The MFCH is designed so that the forward and reverse
switches are activated and the traction potentiometer is
turned when the MECH is rotated.
FIGURE 12 - MFCH WITH OMNITROL LEVER
‘The MFCH also provides a means to control hydraulic
functions. On OMNITROL lever equipped lift trucks,
all hydraulic functions are controlled by the
OMNITROL lever located on the MECH. See
FIGURE 12. On separate lever equipped lift trucks,
there are thumb actuated push button switches for single
speed lift or single speed lower located on the MFCH.

Testing
Potentiometer’s operation can be verified by discon-
necting the wiring and checking resistance. Use an ana-
Jog volt ohmmeter. Watch the needle on the meter while
slowly rotating the potentiometer shaft. Look for a
smooth sweep of the needle from minimum to maxi-
mum values. Replace any potentiometer with erratic
readings or operation. Potentiometer specifications are
listed in TABLE 3.
Test Points Resistance Value

Between pot terminals 1 and 2 | From Oto 10KA + 10%
From 010 10K@ 10%
Between pot terminals 2 and 3
NOTE: Potentiometers can be supplied with or without
rotational stops.
‘TABLE 3 - POTENTIOMETER SPECIFICATIONS,
Install
1. Install the potentiometer through the mounting hole
aligning the locating pin into the slot in the mounting
bracket. See FIGURE 15. Fasten the potentiometer to
the bracket using the lockwasher and nut.
A cauTION
Potentiometers can be supplied with or without rota-
tional stops. Potentiometers with internal rotational
stops will be damaged if they are rotated beyond the
stops.
2. Install the gear on the potentiometer. Do not tighten
the setscrew in the gear at this time. If the setscrew is
tightened before the potentiometer is centered, the po-
tentiometer can be damaged.
Adjustment
A caution
‘The wires to the potentiometer must be disconnected
during Step 1.
1. Adjust the potentiometer for mid-range. Compare
the resistance measured between terminals 1 and 2 with
the resistance measured between terminals 2 and 3. The
potentiometer is at the mid-range position when the re-
sistance readings are equal within 100 ohms. Rotate the
potentiometer shat while holding the gear in the neutral
position for the correct resistance readings. Tighten the
setscrew in the gear at this time.
NOTE: Failure to properly center the potentiometer
can cause a fault code to occur. The fault code may occur
immediately or intermittently.
2. Connect the wires to the potentiometer terminals as
shown in TABLE 4.
3. Calibrate the MIB to the potentiometer. Refer to
MIB SET-UP PROCEDURE.
A caution
‘Whenever adjusting or replacing a potentiometer
the MIB must be calibrated to the potentiometer.

A warNinG
Attempting to disassemble the OMNITROL lever
equipped MFCH may alter the internal calibration
‘and will damage the internal shielding. Tampering
with an OMNITROL lever equipped MFCH can
‘cause unexpected truck operation.
Testing
Ifthe OMNITROL components are suspected to be de-
fective, the OMNITROL, MIB and interconnecting wir-
ing can be functionally tested using the following proce-
dure.
1, Remove the battery compartment cover and the
clear plastic MIB cover to expose the MIB program-
ming buttons. With the brake applied (brake pedal up),
‘tum the key switch tothe “ON” position (main contactor
energized, MIB display shows “0200”). Push and hold
button B to enter the TEST MODE. The left two digits
will show the horizontal axis, and the right two digits
will show the vertical axis. The numbers will change as
the OMNITROL lever is moved. Generally these num-
bers are approximately relative to a full scale of 0 to 99
in each axis, where 5050 is the approximate center val-
ues. The acceptable values for each position are shown
in TABLE 5.
NOTE: Values over 99 are displayed as AO.
In the TEST MODE, the decimal point between the left
two digits is used to indicate operation of the
OMNITROL intemal neutral switch. It should be off
when the stick is in the center position. It will illuminate
when the stick is moved away from the center, and it will
remain on while the OMNITROL lever is moved to the
end of the function gate.
2. If the MIB display readings match those listed in
‘TABLE 5 under TEST MODE, the OMNITROL and all
of the associated wiring to the MIB is functioning prop-
erly. If operational problems exist withthe lft truck, the
OMNITROL set-up and/or the hydraulic components
are suspect. Refer to MIB SET-UP PROCEDURE for
the OMNITROL set-up procedure. See the section, HY-
DRAULIC SYSTEM, 2000 SRM 607 for additional
information on the hydraulic components.
16
NOTE: This procedure can be performed even if the
OMNITROL lever set-up procedure has not been per-
formed, orif it has been performed incorrectly. This test
is completely independent of any calibration and works
the same regardless of MIB setup.
3. If the MIB display readings are not correct, the
MIB, OMNITROL lever/module andior wiring may be
faulty. Further testing should be performed using a volt
‘meter to verify the output volages from the
OMNITROL. Proceed to Step 4.
4. Check the OMNITROL voltages by back probing
the X-8 molex connector of the main wire hamess
(plugs into molex connector of the OMNITROL mod-
ule interconnecting harness) Correct voltages are listed
in TABLE 6.
NOTE: The brake must be applied (brake pedal up),
key switch on, main contactor energized and the respec
tive function activated as shown in TABLE 6 to check
the output voltages.
5. Ifthere are any problems with inputs or outputs, re~
move the OMNITROL module interconnecting harness
and verify the integrity of each wire with an ohmmeter.
See FIGURE 16 for pin out information. If this harness
is defective replace it.
6. Ifthe inputs are not correct atthe X-8 connector, use
an ohmmeter to check the respective circuit for an open.
Locate and repair the open.
A waRNING
Never attempt to probe through the back of the J1 or
J2MIB plugs. These plugs are special sealed plugs. If
circuit must be tested for voltage, check for voltage
at an “amp” type plug, a switch or a component. If
the circuit to the MIB is suspect, check the circuit for
continuity by removing the MIB and then discon-
necting the J1 and J2 plugs. See MIB REMOVAL,
Page 26. Test continuity from the front (pin end) of
the plugs. See FIGURE 17, Page 19.
