gear engaged, also if you are sitting in the driver’s seat.
Before leaving the vehicle parked in a suitable area
where it is not a hindrance, make sure that the parking
brake is applied and that the keys have been removed 156NS15
from the control panel.
Always apply the parking brake in the following cases:
D when the vehicle is parked for a long or short time; 3
D when loading/unloading the vehicle.
156NS16
Driving the vehicle

1
Make all the necessary adjustments (seat, steering
wheel, rearview mirrors) before setting off.
Check that the engine warning lights are OK.
Sound the horn before starting off (Fig. 1).
Check that no---one is standing near the vehicle before
starting off.
Be very careful when steering: the front part of the ve-
hicle can move also when the vehicle is stationary. This
can be very dangerous for persons standing near the
vehicle (Fig. 2).
Check the ground surrounding the vehicle before re- 156NS17A
versing to make sure there are no people or obstacles.
Do not transport people in the cab or in other parts of
the vehicle, with exception of the emergency seat. 2
Respect signs, especially speed limits.
Always respect speed limits. Keep a safe speed for
yourself and for others.
Do not exceed the maximum speed allowed.
Switch the lights on at night and when visibility is poor
(dust, fog, rain). Slow down.
Never travel with the transmission in neutral.
To prevent overheating do not use the service brake by
itself when going downhill for long distances. Select au-
tomatic transmission manual mode and use the low
gears (2nd and 3rd) to slow the vehicle down. 156NS18
Use all the auxiliary brakes present on the vehicle (re-
tarder, exhaust brake).
If the brakes overheat, select automatic transmission
manual mode and use the low gears (2nd and 3rd) to
slow the vehicle down.
Do not use the parking brake for slowing down or stop-
ping the vehicle. This manoeuvre should only be per-
formed in an emergency after slowing the vehicle down
in other ways.
Working the vehicle

Do not use the vehicle for purposes other than those
1
described by the Manufacturer.
Always check height and width during the various load-
ing/unloading operations. Make sure they fall within the
specified limits (Fig. 1).
Beware of overhead obstacles, such as bridges,
cables and wires. Make sure that the load does not
knock into them.
Keep the wheels perpendicular to the slope when driv-
ing up or down a gradient.
Do not make a U ---turn on a gradient to prevent rolling
156NS19
over.
Respect the transverse gradient permitted for the
loaded and empty vehicle.
Respect the maximum possible gradient for the loaded
2
and empty vehicle (Fig. 2).
156NS20
Look out for people when reversing and changing di-

rection.
1
Ideally, a person should be asked to signal when re-
versing. This person will be able to observe the ap-
proach from a more favourable position with respect to
the driver.
Do not move the vehicle to loading position while the
loading machine bucket or excavator is moving over-
head.
Stay inside the cab while loading the vehicle.
Make sure that the maximum capacity of the vehicle is
not exceeded during loading operations (Fig. 1).
156NS21
Make sure that the load is well arranged and will not fall
out of the tipper during transportation.
Check the area before unloading. Look out for hazard- 2
ous points: loose terrain, ditches, humps and fencing.
Beware of icy ground: it may become weak and slip-
pery when the temperature rises.
Avoid loading and unloading on steep slopes: the ve-
hicle could roll over.
Be very careful of unbalancing the vehicle by the move-
ment of material out of the tipper during unloading op-
erations.
Check that the tipper is in the correct position before
starting off after unloading.
No---one should ever stand in the loading and unload-
156NS22
ing area of the vehicle (Fig. 2).
When unloading by means of the external control, the
operator must never leave the control, which is located 3
in a safe position, and must wear all the required per-
sonal protection devices.
Never start off during loading or unloading operations.
Do not get on or off the vehicle during loading and un-
loading operations.
When crossing another vehicle, the empty vehicle
should give way to the loaded vehicle and the vehicle
driving downhill should give way to the vehicle running
uphill.
If other vehicles and/or other machines are used in the
working area, appoint a person in charge of signalling 156NS23
and use signals which can be understood by all drivers
(Fig. 3).
In this case, all personnel will follow the instructions
provided.
Towing the vehicle

1
Use the specific hitches provided for this purpose to
tow the vehicle.
Do not use cables, belts or chains to have the vehicle
towed or to tow another vehicle: they could break.
Do not use cables, belts or chains to have the vehicle
towed or to tow another vehicle if the braking system
of the vehicle being towed does not work.
Always use a stiff, suitably dimensioned bar (Fig. 1).
A user must always be aboard the vehicle being towed.
Do not stand near vehicles being towed.
The parking brake will not work if the output propeller 156NS24
shaft is removed from the rear automatic transmission
and/or the transfer cases and/or the drive axles.
In this case, arrange suitable wedges under the wheels
in both directions of travel to prevent uncontrolled ve-
hicle movements.
Replacing a wheel
The wheel replacement operation requires the utmost
care. The operation must be carried out by at least two
experts, using a hoist or a crane to handle the wheel.
Stop the possibly empty vehicle in a flat area, apply the
parking brake and remove the key from the panel.
Make sure that the ground is adequately firm for the
load to be supported. If in doubt, use plates and plat-
forms to prevent sinking.
Only use the lifting points shown.
Make sure that the lifting device is suitable to carry out
the operations and respect safety requirements.
Keep away from tyres and/or brakes that show signs of
overheating. Wait for the temperature of the compo-
nents to drop.
Deflate the tyre completely, if it is not already flat.
Do not use wheels or fasteners other that those origi-
nally provided.
Excessive tightening may be dangerous: Do not use
tubes or extensions other than those provided to tight-
en the wheel nuts.
Check that the wheel nuts are tight after two or three
hours of vehicle operation.
Check wheel nut tightness regularly.
MAINTENANCE
General
Personnel in charge of repairs must be aware of all the
procedures described in this handbook. The proce-
dures advise against adopting work methods which
could cause injuries and/or affect integrity of the ve-
hicle.
The procedures are not comprehensive. The Manufac-
turer cannot account for and evaluate all the possible
methods of operation or the possible consequences.

air (Fig. 1).
Avoid prolonged, repeated contacts of fuel, lubricant
and fluids with skin to prevent skin problems and other
syndromes (Fig. 2).
Do not swallow fuel, lubricant or fluids. In the event of
accidental contact with eyes, wash the concerned part
thoroughly with water.
Be very careful: drained oil and fluids, as well as filters
and surrounding parts, could be very hot (Fig. 3). 156NS33
Ensure adequate ventilation to prevent the accumula-
tion of toxic vapours while cleaning and replacing fil-
ters. 2
Do not weld in closed areas or areas which are not suit-
ably ventilated.
Do not weld on or near painted surfaces to prevent de-
veloping toxic vapours.
Remove the paint with suitable products, wash the sur-
faces and leave to dry.
Do not breathe dust and toxic residues while grinding
and sand---blasting. Protect your eyes with masks and
goggles.
Use a suitable vacuum cleaner to remove dusty resi-
dues from the vehicle or place of work.
Do not play with compressed air. Keep compressed air
guns away from people.
Wear protective goggles with side guards and a mask
when using compressed air to clean filters, to prevent
injury caused by particles of dust. You are advised to
carry out the cleaning operations in a ventilated area.
Be very careful before removing caps or covers from 156NS34
reservoirs, radiators or cylinders: turn the part slowly to
discharge any residual pressure.

D gear lever in neutral position;
D key inserted in ignition switch.
Proceed as follows:
D turn the ignition key (Fig. 1) to position 1.
The vehicle is fitted with an electronic intake air pre---
heating device for cold starting (glow plug). The system
is activated when the temperature is under a predeter-
mined value (approximately 10˚C). 269NU331
This condition is shown on the display (Fig. 2, see ar-
row).
The engine can be started when the pre---heating pro- 2
cedure is over.

brake pedal is pressed.
The EDC warning light will stay on or blink if
the engine control unit detects a malfunc-
tion.
A message will appear on the display when
this occurs.
Warming the engine 269NS0F4

After starting the cold engine, drive off slowly for a cer-
tain distance to warm the engine (as soon as the auto-
matic transmission control unit enables this). Run the
2
engine at medium to low rpm.
Do not stress the braking system while the engine is
warming up.
Do not idle the engine for a long time, either
when cold or hot.
After starting the hot engine, let it idle for a few seconds
before increasing the rpm to allow correct lubrication of
the turbo charger.

Off -- vehicle warm-- up procedure

The automatic warm---up procedure is used to gradual-
1
ly warm the engine, the automatic transmission and the
hydraulic systems of the vehicle up without needing to
move the vehicle and without supervision.
The system after running the engine at idling speed for
30 seconds will accelerate to approximately 1000---
1200 rpm according to operative conditions and will ap-
ply the retarder to create an engine load.
The system stops the retarder and returns the engine
to idling speed when the required temperatures are
reached.

Standing
Proceed as follows:
D press the brake pedal to stop the vehicle;
. The vehicle can be kept stationary by press-
174NU27
ing the brake pedal with the gearshift lever
in Forward/Reverse Handles to the pres-
ence of the converter. 2
Avoid however to maintain a long time this
position since it may cause transmission
overheating.
D take the gearshift to Neutral (Fig. 2) and apply the

parking brake (Fig. 3, see arrow), and release the
brake pedal.
The instrument panel warning light will indi-
cate whether the parking brake is actually
applied.
269NU392
Wait for a few seconds before releasing the
brake pedal after releasing the parking
brake. 3
D stop the engine in the event of long stops and re-
move the key from the ignition switch.
Do not leave the vehicle with the engine run-
ning.
Parking
Observe the following precautions for parking the ve-
hicle for a long time:
D park the vehicle as far as possible on flat ground, in 269NU433
a suitable area where it is not a hindrance;
D apply the parking brake, stop the engine and re-
move the key from the ignition switch;
D fill the fuel tank to prevent the formation of con-
dense;
D inspect the vehicle to check for damage or evident
leaks.
DRIVING THE VEHICLE

1
Precautions during the initial period of use
New vehicles require a short running---in period of at
least 150/200 hours. Observe the following precautions
during this time:
D after starting, warm the engine slowly; avoid driving
at high revs too soon;
D do not demand maximum engine power;
D do not overstress the brakes;
D frequently check the engine oil level and the auto-
matic transmission oil level;
D check the auxiliary drive belt tension;
D check tightness of wheel nuts.
Adopt similar precautions (for the concerned parts) fol-

lowing the replacement or overhauling of fundamental
components (engine, transmission, axle, brakes, etc.).
Normal running
Check the following parameters with the instrument
(Fig. 1) while travelling:
1. alternator warning light must be off;
2. alarm warning lights must be off.
3. liquid cooler temperature must be in specified ran-
ge in normal working conditions: 269NU3A2
80<T<100 [˚C] (176<T<212 [˚F])
Stop the vehicle, stop the engine and identi-
fy the cause of the problem if the tempera-
ture is too high (the alarm warning light is
on).
4. automatic transmission oil temperature: must be
in specified range in normal working conditions:
80 < T < 100 [˚C] (176 < T <212 [˚F])
Select manual mode and engage a lower

gear to prevent torque converter slipping if
the temperature is too high. If this is not
enough, stop the vehicle and identify the
cause of the problem.
Do not drain the fuel tank entirely to avoid the formation
of air bubbles in the hoses and to prevent impurities
and condensation from the bottom of the tank reaching
the injection system.
Never travel with the automatic transmission in neutral.
Select automatic mode.
Use the transmission in manual mode to prevent dri-
ving long stretches with the torque converter working.
If this happens, select a lower gear. Extended use of the
torque converter will increase fuel consumption and oil
temperature.
Do not exceed maximum engine speed, especially

downhill.
Use the auxiliary integrated brake when driving long
distances downhill to slow the vehicle down to avoid
using the brake pedal and, consequently, reduce
brake overheating.
Loading
The most common methods of loading are with hydrau-
lic excavators and front end loaders.
The vehicle can be loaded equally well from the rear or
side. The truck driver must facilitate loading operations
for maximum material movement. The shorter the dis-
tance the loading unit bucket must travel, the more
passes it can make in a given period and the quicker
the truck will be loaded.
Waiting vehicles should stay about two vehicle lengths
behind the vehicle being loaded to avoid any spillage
from the loader bucket or truck.
On some jobs, the loader may work more efficiently
when trucks are positioned on both sides. Thus, while
one vehicle is being loaded, the other vehicle can move
into position on the opposite side. Since the vehicle is
usually backed into the loading position with this meth-
od, the operator must be alert and careful while back-
ing, especially when not assisted from the ground.
Keep the vehicle braked by selecting Neutral or apply-
ing the tipping parking brake during loading opera-
tions.
Where possible, the vehicle should be positioned
downwind of the loader especially when dusty material
is being loaded and/or on a windy day.
A cleanup dozer or small loader is often worked in con-
junction with the main loader to keep the area clear of
bucket spillage. The truck driver must always be alert
to the position of these machines to prevent accidents
and congestion.
The following precautions should be observed when
approaching the loading area:
D Avoid rocks and other spillage which can damage
the vehicle and particularly the tyres.
D Allow the cleanup machine sufficient time to clear
up such debris.
D Do not approach the loader when the shovel bucket
is swinging overhead to avoid being hit by falling
material.
Hauling
When travelling on the haul road, keep a safe speed for
the haul road conditions and gradients.
Adjust your speed also to the load you are hauling if
road conditions are good. Braking distance is longer
and steering reaction slower when the vehicle is fully
loaded.
While travelling, consider that the front and rear end of
the vehicle pivot both on the vertical and on the horizon-
tal axes: this will reduce the driver’s perception of the
behaviour of the rear end of the vehicle.
The specific features of the chassis and of
the steering tend to cause understeering
when cornering at medium---to---high speed
(i.e. the front of the vehicle tends to go
straight).
This is particularly the case on slippery ter-
rain and/or when the vehicle is fully loaded.
Especially at full load, due to the high centre
of gravity, may roll over if driven abruptly or
at excessive speed in relation to operative
conditions.
When approaching or encountering soft or slippery

conditions, stop the machine and engage the different
locks in time to prevent getting stuck.
To lock:
D stop the vehicle with the wheels straight;
D do not accelerate the engine;
D press the switch to the required position and start off
again.
Remove the lock as soon as grip conditions improve.
Avoid rocks or other spillage which can damage the ve-
hicle and particularly the tyres.
Keep a safe distance from the vehicle ahead, particular-
ly on slippery ground or in bad weather conditions.
Observe the rules enforced on site in terms of braking
distances and speed.
Driving uphill
Check the traction capacity according to load, gradient
and road surface before facing a steep hill.
Set automatic transmission POWER PROGRAM mode
on the display.
The automatic transmission may keep shifting down
and up when travelling uphill (”gear hunting”).
In this case, it is advisable to manually select the lower
gear and reduce speed. Select the most suitable ratio
to avoid converter slipping.
Driving downhill
. The control system tends to shift to higher

gears to decrease engine load when travel-
ling downhill. This decreases the engine
braking effect and increases speed.
Switch to manual mode and select a gear
suitable to avoid speeding up in this situa-
tion.
As a general rule use the gear selected when
travelling uphill on the same road.
NEVER coast downhill in Neutral even for short distan-

ces.
NEVER exceed the maximum engine speed (2100
rpm).
Use the auxiliary integrated brake to slow the vehicle
down.
If the speed tends to increase, also with the auxiliary
brake applied, press the brake pedal to slow the vehicle
down to reach an engine speed suitable for shifting
down then release the brakes.
Do not apply the brake pedal continuously to avoid
overheating.
Driving on difficult terrain and poor grip

Inspect the route on foot if in doubt to avoid blocking
the vehicle.
When approaching or encountering soft or slippery
conditions, stop the machine and engage the different
locks in time to prevent getting stuck.
Remove the lock as soon as grip conditions improve.
Avoid travelling in deep ruts as much as possible.
Choose a slightly different course each time if there is
enough room to do so to avoid digging deep ruts.
How to avoid getting stuck in mud or sand

The following actions can be taken to avoid the risk of
getting stuck in mud or sand.
a. Unload the vehicle

Lighten the vehicle load by tipping the box if possible.
b. Zigzagging (Duck’s waddle) (Fig. 1):

D engage all differential locks when the vehicle is sta-
1
tionary;
D select Forward position and accelerate without ma-
king the wheels slip;
D steer fully to the right and to the left; proceed until
the vehicle nearly stops after steering then steer ra-
pidly in the opposite direction and so on.
The vehicle should get unstuck following a three or four

manoeuvres of this kind. Otherwise attempt the follo-
wing manoeuvres.
a. Drive forwards and backwards (Rocking loose)

(Fig. 2):
D engage all differential locks when the vehicle is sta-
tionary; 269NU471
D select Forward and accelerate;
D brake, select Reverse and accelerate;
D brake, select Forward and accelerate. 2
Repeat until the vehicle gets unstuck.
If you are unsuccessful rescue the vehicle as shown be-
low.
Dumping
The dumping operation usually depends on the type of
material being hauled.
Overburden and waste material is dumped or piled up
in reverse.
In this case, the operation should be controlled and di- 269NU472
rected by personnel on the ground.
While backing to dump, the vehicle driver must watch
the person on the ground and respect indications while
remaining seated.
When dumping into a hopper, avoid knocking into the
protective rail with the tyres or scraping them against
the guides.
When dumping material over a spoil bank, the driver
must know how close the vehicle can approach the
edge under all weather conditions.
Before dumping, make sure that the wheels are sup-
ported by compact, flat ground.
Empty return
The precautions illustrated for hauling refer also in this
case.
Specifically, the fact that the vehicle is lighter does not
authorise you to handle it carelessly. Keep speed down
and avoid sudden manoeuvres.
Set automatic transmission ECO PROGRAM mode on
the display.
1
The automatic transmission modes are shown on the
display (Fig. 1):
1. Engaged/selected ratio, specifically:
N = Neutral
F1...6 = Forward 1st gear ... 6th gear
R1...3 = Reverse 1st gear ... 3rd gear
LF...LR = Limp home function activated
2. Mode
POWER = POWER program
ECO = ECO program
3. Lock ---up 269NU3B4
Off = engaged (converter locked)
On = released (converter turning)
4. Mode 2

M = Manual
The transmission is switched to automatic mode when

the engine is started.
Press the button and shift the lever to engage a gear:
D forward/backward (Fig. 2, holds AUTOMATIC mo-
de);
D side (Fig. 3, switches to MANUAL mode).
After the first operate, the system will switch from AU- 269NU3B5
TOMATIC to MANUAL and vice versa each time the but-
ton is pressed.
3
To switch from AUTOMATIC to MANUAL mode:
D press the button
or
D tip the lever to the side.
To switch from MANUAL to AUTOMATIC mode:

D press the button.
Select automatic mode in normal vehicle conditions of

use.
Select manual mode: 269NU3B6
D in particularly difficult conditions, such as steep hills
or slippery terrain;
D to avoid continuous gear shifts (”gear hunting”).
Forwards/reverse selection
Gearshift lever (Fig. 1) has three positions.
1
N (Neutral) position is used for:
D starting/stopping the engine;
D vehicle stationary and engine running.
F (Forward) position is used for:
D forward movement of the vehicle.
R (Reverse) position: is used for:
D reverse movement of the vehicle.
Forward or reverse must only be engaged
when the vehicle is stationary.
. It is not possible to shift from position N to 269NU3B3
position F or R if the parking brake is ap-
plied.
An external buzzer will sound when Reverse
is selected.
When Reverse is selected, the transmission
automatically switches to MANUAL mode.
AUTOMATIC mode operation

The automatic transmission control system selects the
most suitable gear according to engine speed and
load.
The system governs automatic torque converter lock ---
up clutch engagement according to engine speed and
load.
The two operating modes of the control system can be
set on the display:
D ECO PROGRAM with shift points that privilege fuel
saving;
D POWER PROGRAM with shift points that privilege
top performance.
Starting from a standstill will take place automatically in
second gear.
. The automatic transmission may keep shif-
ting down and up when travelling uphill
(”gear hunting”).
In this case, it is advisable to manually select
the lower gear and reduce speed.
. The control system tends to shift to higher

gears to decrease engine load when travel-
ling downhill. This decreases the engine
brake effect and increases speed.
Switch to manual mode and select a gear
suitable to avoid increasing speed in this si-
tuation.
MANUAL mode operation

1
Tip the lever to the side to shift gear (Fig. 1):
a. lever pushed leftwards (towards the driver):
selects a lower gear (shift down);
b. lever pushed rightwards (towards the side): se-
lects a higher gear (shift up).
Each sideways tip will correspond to one gear
shift:
D to F position to shift to forwards gears;
D to R position to shift to reverse gears.
. Select an appropriate gear for starting off.
The vehicle will start off in the last selected
gear if the vehicle is stopped without shif-
ting.
The optimal engine speed is in the range from 1300 to 174NU31A

1800 rpm.
Shift up when the engine speed reaches 2100 rpm.
Shift down if the engine speed drops until 1200 rpm 2
and the lock ---up is released (converter phase): the
warning light will come on to indicate this condition.
Prolonged running with engaged converter

(lock---up disengaged) results in automatic
transmission oil temperature increase,
which is shown by the gauge (Fig. 2) set on
the dashboard.
this occurs.
In this case, shift down to a lower gear to en- 269NU3C2
gage the lock---up clutch and travel in such

conditions until the oil temperature returns
to normal.
. The control system will prevent gearshifts

which are not compatible with the vehicle
and engine speeds.
. The system will automatically apply the re-

tarder if the engine speed reaches the maxi-
mum admitted limit when travelling down-
hill.
Integrated IRCM auxiliary brake

1
The control has three positions (Fig. 1):
D position 0 = off;
position 1 = engine brake on;
position 2 = engine brake + retarder on.
. The integrated auxiliary brake in position 2

will automatically generate maximum brak-
ing effect compatibly with the operative con-
ditions of the vehicle by electronic means of
the retarder.
269NU264
Shift the lever to the required braking position to acti-
vate the device.
Move the lever back to position 0 to disconnect the de- 2
vice.
The engine brake warning light (Fig. 2, ref. 1) will light
up with the control in position 1.
The retarder warning light (Fig. 2, ref. 2) will light up with
the control in position 2.
. Press the accelerator pedal to deactivate

the auxiliary integrated brake.
Use the integrated auxiliary brake to reduce
vehicle speed when cornering or on down- 269NU3F2
hill and to avoid brakes overheating.
Continuous use of the retarder (position 2)
will increase transmission oil temperature 3
shown by the gauge (Fig. 3).
To avoid oil overheating, disengage the re-
tarder (position 1) for short periods.
269NU3C2

Do not lock the differential if one wheel is
slipping to prevent damaging the mecha-
nism: stop the vehicle before engaging the
lock.
Do not steer when vehicle when the central
differential is locked (except if stuck in sand)
to prevent severely damaging the transmis- 221NU78
sion.
Do not drive on terrain offering high grip
with the rear differential locked to prevent
severely damaging the rear differential and
causes early tyre wear.

D wait for all the coolant to drain out and reconnect the
sleeve.
Cleaning
Proceed as follows:
D prepare a mixture of water and specific detergent.
Pour the mixture slowly through the filler cap to
reach the level and close the cap;
Respect the detergent proportions recom- 269NM103B
mended by the supplier,
Excessive concentration could damage the
engine.
Detergents do not contain antifreeze. Do not
leave the vehicle standing in cold tempera-
tures if the coolant circuit contains a mixture
of these products.
D start the engine and let it run for one hour;

D stop the engine and let it cool down. Drain the mix-
ture as shown above;
D fill the circuit again with clean water. Run the engine
until the thermostat fully opens;
D stop the engine and let it cool down. Drain the mix-
ture as shown above. If the output water is still very
dirty, repeat the cleaning operation with detergent.
Filling
Proceed as follows:
1
D prepare a mixture of water and specific antifreeze in
the specified proportions. Alternatively, use coolant
with suitable characteristics;
D pour mixture in SLOWLY through the filler cap (Fig.
1, see arrow). Do not close the cap;
D start the engine and idle it. At the same time, add
mixture until all the air has been eliminated from the
circuit. Continue for at least 15 minutes;
D close the filler cap;
D run the engine at a steady average speed until the
269NM102
thermostat has fully opened.
D check for presence of foam or air bubbles in the res-
ervoir;
D stop the engine and let is cool down. Check level
and top up if required.
Check that the pressure check valve built

into the cap is working. Replace the cap if
this is not so.
Checking antifreeze concentration

The minimum percentage of antifreeze depends on the
environment temperature where the vehicle is in use.
Check the concentration of antifreeze in engine coolant
by means of a specific refractometer.
Use the specific refractometer to check that the per-
centage of antifreeze in the engine coolant is within the
specified range.
You are advised not to use a densimeter be-

cause this device is not adequately accu-
rate.
Cleaning the radiator surface

Clean the outside of the radiator with compressed air
to remove accumulated debris (leaves, insects).
In the presence of obstinate dirt, brush the radiator sur-
face with a solution of detergent and water, then use a
jet of steam to remove the residual dirt.
Check tightness of automatic transmission oil -- wa-

ter and hydraulic fluid-- water heat exchangers
Visually check tightness of each heat exchanger and
respective pipes.

A lubrication cycle consists of a pause and a working
cycle.
The pause determines the time between two lubrica-
tion dispensing operations: it decreases as the pause
time decreases.
The working time determines the time of the dispensing
phase: this increases as the working time increases.
The lubrication cycle is repeated constantly after start-
ing the engine.
The times can be adjusted by means of two switches
which can be reached after removing the cover (Fig. 1,
see arrow):
D pause time, BLUE switch (Fig. 2, ref. 1);
D working time, RED switch (Fig. 2, ref. 2).

Cleaning
Periodically wash the vehicle with neutral products and
water to eliminate traces of corrosives (salt, sand, etc.).
Carefully dry off with compressed air to eliminate any
pockets of water.
Do not use products containing aromatic solvents,

methanol or hydrocarbons to clean the paintwork.
Do not wash inside the cab with a jet of water or steam.
The plastic parts should be cleaned following the same

procedure as for normal washing.
Alternatively, use specific products, carefully observing
the instructions provided by the product manufacturer.
Clean plastic parts using products containing solvents
in general. Use these substances taking the necessary
precautions as they are inflammable and give off va-
pours.
Ensure that the cab is well ventilated until the products

have dried. Chlorinated solvents such as trichloroethy-
lene or hyperchloride should be avoided.
Seat belt cleaning is carried out manually by washing

with warm water and neutral soap. Rinse and leave dry
in the shade. Do not use strong detergent products,
bleach or colorants and avoid any chemical sub-
stances which could waken the fibres.

Precautions
In order to avoid incorrect interventions which may irre-
versibly damage the electronic control units installed
on board the vehicle the following recommendations
should be followed:
D After a service operation requiring battery discon-
nection, make sure that the terminals are well con- 269NS102
nected.
D Do not disconnect or connect the connectors to the
electronic control unit when the engine is running or
control units are powered.
D Do not disconnect the batteries when the engine is
running.
The vehicle electrical system will work even

if the battery is flat.
D in electrical arch welding on the chassis is required,

disconnect the positive and negative battery wires,
short ---circuit them and disconnect all ground wires;
D remove the control unit to weld near the near the de-
vice;
Contact your Dealer for more information on

arch welding procedures.
D Remove the electronic control units in the event of

operations at temperatures exceeding 80˚C (oven
painting, etc.).
Battery maintenance (unsealed batteries)

1
Sealed batteries (maintenance free) do not
require topping up with water in normal
working conditions and mild climate.
The electrolyte should be checked approxi-
mately once a year in tropical climates.
Proceed as follows:
D remove the battery compartment cover (Fig. 1);
D carefully clean the batteries, the cables and the
case, removing rust and dirt which can cause volt- 269NM451
age drops;
D check through the caps that the distance between
the electrolyte (Fig. 2) and the upper edge of the 2
plate of each element is as specified:
plate-- level distance: 0.032÷0.049 ft
D if required, top up with distilled water when the bat-
teries are cold and rested, through the specific filler
holes;
D check with a densimeter that the battery charge is
as specified.
The presence of some electronic devices

which must always be electrically powered
causes a slight current consumption, also 269NM452
when the battery disconnect switch is off.
It may be difficult to start the engine after a
long stop (one month or longer) due to par-
tial discharging of the batteries.
To avoid this problem, start and warm the en-
gine up (possibly by travelling a short dis-
tance) once a month.
Recharging with external devices

1
Batteries should normally be removed from the vehicle
to be recharged.
If this is not possible, the batteries can also be re-
charged using an external source (battery charger)
connected directly to the battery terminals.
. The vehicle is equipped with a 24 volt electri-
cal system with negative and ground.
Disconnect the batteries from the vehicle’s
electrical system.
Proceed as follows (Fig. 1):

a. lay the cables on the ground ensuring that the ter-
minals do not touch metal parts or each other.
Connect the red cable (A) to the POSITIVE termi-
nal of the flat battery; 174NM44
b. connect the black cable (B) to the NEGATIVE ter-
minal of the flat battery;
c. set the recharge time and correct. Start rechar-
ging.
Respect the instructions provided by the
battery charger supplier.
Respect the sequence of the operation.
Do not reverse the polarity when making the
connection.

PERFORMANCE ALIGNMENT CHART

The performance alignment chart can be used to check whether the load/slope conditions are compatible with
the vehicle performance and if so, what this performance is.
. The alignment chart was drawn according to the engine torque curve. It is therefore valid when the
accelerator pedal is fully pressed.
The following data must be known to use the alignment diagram:

1. total ground vehicle weight (GVW)
2. slope of ground
3. rolling resistance
1. The total ground vehicle weight (GVW) is obtained by summing tare and planned load.
. Refer to tables on previous pages for maximum admitted values.
2. The slope must be expressed as a percentage. Values expressed in degrees must be converted.
3. Rolling resistance can be evaluated according to ground conditions as shown in the following table.

Sand --- Gravel 100 220 10.0
Sum the slope percentage and the rolling resistance to obtain final grade.
Using the alignment chart

Starting from the GVW (point A), draw a vertical line to meet the total resistance line grade (point B).
Draw a horizontal line starting from point B to cross one of the use curves: this shows one of the possible condi-
tions of use (point C).
Continue the horizontal line to cross the ordinate axis: this shows the total traction force (RIMPULL, point D).
Draw a vertical line from point C to meet the abscissa: this shows the speed which can be reached (SPEED, point
