COACH

1. Inspect for visible cracks and scratches on the interior panels. Inspect
the tightness of the stanchion, tighten if needed.
2. Examine all rubber and wear parts for cracks, and detachment between
rubber and metal. Replace if necessary.
3. Clean the stanchions, hand rails, perimeter seats, and floor panel of the
HET on a daily basis.
4. Clean the sliding door and glass window with glass cleaner using non-
abrasive materials.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT clean the floors by spraying water from a hose.


Water may leak under the flooring and cause floors to deteriorate. DO
NOT use petroleum-based solvent on the flooring. These are fire hazards
and will damage the flooring.

5. Wash the exterior body panels, windows, and doors on a monthly basis
with soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. A power-wash may also be
used to clean the exterior. Avoid using brushes as they collect dirt that
may scratch exterior surfaces. Any standard body wax may also be used
to achieve a high gloss finish.

Inspect for dirt build-ups on the exterior, skirts, and the under chassis. A
power washer may be used.
6. Perform intensive cleaning on a yearly basis. Apart from the monthly
washing, rooftop-mounted ACU should be washed to remove soil and dirt
build-ups. Carbon build-ups on the exhaust of the power coach should
also be cleaned.

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM

It is necessary to perform these maintenance routines to avoid loss of


cooling capacity, extend the life of the equipment’s parts, and reduce
unnecessary stops of the vehicle.

Before working on the unit be sure to disconnect all electric


power to avoid the possibility of electric shock and personal
injury. Before disconnecting, discharge capacitors by shorting
across the capacitor’s terminals.

It is essential to use PPEs to protect you from refrigerant, oil,


acid, debris, and engine noise.

High pressure – refrigerant in liquid form is a potential hazard


when released to the environment.

Hot surfaces – the compressor discharge, exhaust, and other


engine components can be very hot.

Toxic gas – the refrigerant gas in the presence of flame


produces a toxic gas that can cause severe respiratory
irritation

Never apply heat in containers or pressurized lines

Never turn the equipment on with the discharge shut-off


valve blocking the refrigerant flow.

All components that are not in perfect condition should be


replaced.

observing the applied torques.
6 - Remove dirt deposited on the components condenser,
controller, relay plate, compressor, clutch, alternator

Compressor

1. Internal pressure relief valve


- The valve is maintenance-free. However, opening the valve due to
abnormal operating conditions, however, may result in steady leakage.
Check and replace the valve in this case.
2. Working valves
- Designed for maintenance-free operation. However, it is recommended to
make an inspection after operating failures and in conjunction with an oil
change (approx. every 10,000 to 12,000 operating hours)
3. Removing the electro-magnetic clutch
- De-energize the compressor and have it cooled down to at least 40 deg.
Celsius.
- Remove V-belts.
- Screw out central straining screw until the collar touches the circlip and
the clutch pushes off (integrated pulling device)
- Turn straining screw further, until the coupling separates from the shaft.
Remove coupling.
- Screw off magnet.
- Clean and check magnet and coupling. Replace if necessary.
4. Shaft seal
It is not necessary to make a regular routine inspection of the shaft seal.
Emerging oil is caught by a felt ring. Replace the felt ring if required.
5. Oil changing
Changing the compressor oil is not necessarily required if operated in a
normal fashion. However, outside impurities can lead to deposits in the
lubrication oil and darken its color. Change the oil in this case. Clean the
oil filter and magnetic plug as well.
Recommendation: Change oil and oil dehydrator (if necessary), and clean
oil filter and magnetic plug approx. every 10,000-12,000 operating hours
or approx. three (3) years.
6. Charging refrigerant
Charge only permitted refrigerants (R134a)
Before refrigerant is charged:
- Check the compressor oil level
- Do not switch on the compressor
Charge liquid refrigerant directly into the condenser resp. receiver.

1. Walk-Around Inspection

Make a thorough inspection of the engine before starting. Look for items
such as oil or coolant leaks, loose bolts, worn belts, loose connections and
trash build-up. Make repairs, as needed.

a. The guards must be in proper place. Repair damaged guards or replace


missing guards.
b. Wipe all caps and plugs before the engine is serviced to reduce the chance
of system contamination.
Remove accumulated grease and/or oil on an engine or deck with steam
cleaning or high-pressure water.
c. Inspect the piping for the air inlet system and the elbows for cracks and
for loose clamps. Ensure that hoses and tubes are not contacting other
hoses, tubes, wiring harnesses, etc.
d. Inspect the alternator belt and the accessory drive belts for cracks, breaks
and other damage. Belts for multiple groove pulleys must be replaced as
matched sets. Not replacing matched sets could cause the belt to break.
e. Drain the water and the sediment from fuel tanks on a daily basis in order
to ensure that only clean fuel enters the fuel system.
f. Inspect the wiring and the wiring harnesses for loose connections and
worn wires or frayed wires.
g. Inspect the ground strap for a good connection and good condition.
OMM-HET-D
HYBRID ELECTRIC TRAIN
OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Page D-8 of D-43

Section: MAINTENANCE Revision No.: 0

h. Inspect the ECM to the cylinder head ground strap for a good connection
and good condition.
i. Disconnect any battery chargers that are not protected against the
current drain of the starting motor. Check the condition and the
electrolyte level of the batteries, unless the engine is equipped with a
maintenance free battery.
j. Check the condition of the gauges. Replace gauges that are cracked and
cannot be calibrated.

For any type of leak (coolant, lube or fuel) clean up the fluid. If leaking is
observed, find the source and correct the leak. If leaking is suspected,
check the fluid levels more often than recommended until the leak is
found or fixed.

k. Inspect the water pumps for coolant leaks. The water pump seal is
lubricated by coolant in the cooling system. It is normal for a small
amount of leakage to occur as the engine cools down and the parts
contract. Excessive coolant leakage may indicate the need to replace the
water pump seal.
l. Inspect the lubrication system for leaks at the front crankshaft seal, the
rear crankshaft seal, the oil pan, the oil filters and the valve cover.
m. Check the condition of all pipes. Ensure that the cooling lines are tight and
properly clamped. Check for leaks.
n. Inspect the fuel system for leaks. Look for loose fuel line clamps or for
loose fuel line tie-wraps.

2. Engine

a. Clean engine.

Remove accumulated oil and grease by steam cleaning the engine.


Remove debris and fluid spills whenever a significant quantity
accumulates on the engine. Periodic cleaning of the engine is
recommended. Below are the benefits provided by a clean engine:
 Easy detection of fluid leaks
 Maximum heat transfer characteristics
 Ease of maintenance
Note: Caution must be used in order to prevent electrical components
from being damaged by excessive water when you clean your engine.
Avoid electrical components such as the alternator, the starter and the
Electronic Control Module (ECM).

d. Inspect/Replace Engine Air Cleaner Element (Single Element)

NOTE: Never run the engine without an air cleaner element installed or
with a damaged air cleaner element. Dirt entering the engine causes
premature wear and damage to engine components. Do not use an air
cleaner element that has any tears and/or holes in the filter material, with
damaged pleats, gaskets or seals. Discard damaged air cleaner elements.

Servicing the air cleaner element

- Check air cleaner elements thoroughly for tears and/or holes in the filter
material before installation. Inspect the gasket or the seal of the element
for damage.
- Check the precleaned (if equipped) and the dust bowl (if equipped) daily
for accumulation of dirt and debris. Remove any dirt and debris as
needed. Operating in dirty conditions may require more frequent service
of the air cleaner element.
- The air cleaner element should be replaced at least once per year. This
replacement should be performed regardless of the number of cleanings.
Refer to the OEM information to determine the number of times the
element can be cleaned.
- Maintain a supply of suitable filter elements for replacement purposes.

Cleaning the air cleaner element

NOTE: Do not tap or strike the air cleaner element.


Do not wash the primary air cleaner element.

1. Conduct a visual inspection of the air cleaner element before cleaning.


Inspect air cleaner elements for damage to pleats, the seals, the gaskets
and the outer cover. Discard damaged air cleaner element.

Section: MAINTENANCE Revision No.: 0

Personal injury can result from air pressure.

Personal injury can result without following proper procedure. When


using pressured air, wear a protective face shield and protective
clothing.

a. Pressurized air can be used to clean primary air cleaner elements that
have not been cleaned more than three times. Use filtered, dry air with a
maximum pressure of 207 kPa (30 psi). Pressurized air will not remove
deposits of carbon and oil.

When the air cleaner element is cleaned, always begin with the clean side
(inside) in order to force dirt particles toward the dirty side (outside). Aim
the air hose so that air flows along the length of the filter. Follow the
direction of the paper pleats in order to prevent damage to the pleats. Do
not aim the air directly at the face of the paper pleats.
b. Vacuum cleaning is useful for daily cleaning because of dry and rusty
environment.

Inspecting the air cleaner element

a. Ins
b. Use a 60-watt blue light in a dark room or in a similar facility. Place the
blue light in the air cleaner element.
c. Rotate the air cleaner element. Inspect the air cleaner element for light
that may show through the filter material.
d. Compare the existing air cleaner to a new air cleaner element that has
the
same part number.

e. Replace Engine Crankcase Breather


OMM-HET-D

Incorrect /deteriorating/loose mounting can cause engine vibration. Any
engine mount that shows deterioration should be replaced.

g. Check Engine Oil and Filter

Drain the crankcase with the engine stop and with the oil warm. This
method allows the waste particles that are suspended in the oil to be
drained properly. Failure to follow this recommended procedure will cause
the waste particles to be recirculated through the engine lubrication
system.
OMM-HET-D
HYBRID ELECTRIC TRAIN
OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Page D-13 of D-43

Section: MAINTENANCE Revision No.: 0

NOTE: Do not drain the oil when the engine is cold. The waste particles
are not removed with the draining cold oil.

Section: MAINTENANCE Revision No.: 0

h. Check Engine Oil Level

Hot oil and hot components can cause personal injury. Do not allow
hot oil or hot components to contact the skin

1. Maintain the oil level between the “Low”


mark (Y) and the “High” mark (X) on the
engine oil dipstick. Do not fill the crankcase
above the “high” mark (X)
2. Remove the cap and add oil, if necessary. Clean
the oil filler cap. Install the oil Filler cap.

Note: Perform this maintenance with the engine stopped. After the engine
has been switched OFF, wait for ten minutes in order to allow the engine
oil to drain to the oil pan before checking the oil level. Ensure that the
engine is either level or that the engine is in the normal operating position
in order to obtain a true level indication.
Operating your engine when the oil level is above the “High” mark could
cause your crankshaft to dip into the oil. The air bubbles created from the
crankshaft dipping into the oil reduces the oil’s lubricating characteristics
and could result to loss of power.
