Note: Cat does not recommend the checking of the actual bearing clearances particularly on small
engines. This is because of the possibility of obtaining inaccurate results and the possibility of
damaging the bearing or the journal surfaces. Each Cat engine bearing is quality checked for
specific wall thickness.

Note: The measurements should be within specifications and the correct bearings should be used.
If the crankshaft journals and the bores for the block and the rods were measured during
disassembly, no further checks are necessary. However, if the technician still wants to measure the
bearing clearances, Tooling (A) is an acceptable method. Tooling (A) is less accurate on journals
with small diameters if clearances are less than 0.10 mm (0.004 inch).

NOTICE

Lead wire, shim stock or a dial bore gauge can damage the bearing
surfaces.

The technician must be very careful to use Tooling (A) correctly. The following points must be
remembered:

• Ensure that the backs of the bearings and the bores are clean and dry.

• Ensure that the bearing locking tabs are properly seated in the tab grooves.

• The crankshaft must be free of oil at the contact points of Tooling (A).

1. Put a piece of Tooling (A) on the crown of the bearing that is in the cap.

Note: Do not allow Tooling (A) to extend over the edge of the bearing.

2. Use the correct torque-turn specifications in order to install the bearing cap. Do not use an
impact wrench. Be careful not to dislodge the bearing when the cap is installed.

Note: Do not turn the crankshaft when Tooling (A) is installed.

3. Carefully remove the cap, but do not remove Tooling (A). Measure the width of Tooling
(A) while Tooling (A) is in the bearing cap or on the crankshaft journal. Refer to Illustration
1.

Illustration 1 g01152855

Typical Example

4. Remove all of Tooling (A) before you install the bearing cap.

Note: When Tooling (A) is used, the readings can sometimes be unclear. For example, all
parts of Tooling (A) are not the same width. Measure the major width in order to ensure that
the parts are within the specification range. Refer to Specifications Manual, "Connecting
Rod Bearing Journal" and Specifications Manual, "Main Bearing Journal" for the correct
clearances.

7. If the cylinder liner projection is out of specification, rotate the cylinder liner in the bore and
repeat the procedure. If the cylinder liner projection measurements are again out of
specification, try installing the cylinder liner in a different cylinder bore to improve the
measurements.

Note: Do not exceed the maximum liner projection of 0.175 mm (0.0069 inch). Cracking in
the flange of the cylinder liner results from excessive cylinder liner projection
measurements.

8. If the maximum variation between cylinder liners is greater than the recommended
specification, shims must be used in order to reach the correct specification.

9. When the cylinder liner projection for each cylinder liner is within the recommended
specification, mark each cylinder liner for the proper location in the bore and remove the
cylinder liners.

10. Lubricate the O-ring seals, the cylinder liner, and the upper filler band before installation.

Note: If the lower O-ring seals are black in color, apply liquid soap on the lower O-ring
seals and the cylinder block. Use clean engine oil on the upper filler band.

Note: If the lower O-rings are brown in color, apply engine oil on the lower O-ring seals,
the cylinder block, and the upper filler band.

Apply 5P-3975 Rubber Lubricant and/or clean engine oil immediately


before assembly. If the 5P-3975 Rubber Lubricant or engine oil is
applied too early, the filler bands and/or O-ring seals may swell and
the filler bands and/or O-ring seals may be pinched under the cylinder
liner during installation.

1. Use Tooling (A) and install the new upper halves of main bearings (1) in the cylinder block.
Install new lower halves of main bearings (1) in main bearing caps (2) .

Note: When the bearing clearance is checked and the engine is in an upright position or on
the engine's side, the crankshaft must be supported against the upper halves of the main
bearings. This is done in order to get a correct measurement with Tooling (B) . If the
crankshaft is not supported, the weight of the crankshaft will cause an incorrect reading. If
the engine is not in an upright position or on the engine's side, it is not necessary to support
the crankshaft. Do not rotate the crankshaft when Tooling (B) is positioned.

Note: Refer to Guideline For Reusable Parts, SEBV0544, "Engine Bearings and
Crankshafts" for complete details concerning the measurement of bearing clearances.

2. Check the main bearing clearance with Tooling (B) , as follows:

a. Put a piece of Tooling (B) on the crankshaft journals, as shown.

Note: Make sure that the part number on the main bearing cap is facing toward the
front of the engine. Also, make sure that the number on the main bearing cap matches
the number on the cylinder block on the left side of each main bearing cap.

Note: Cat does not recommend the checking of the actual bearing clearances particularly on small
engines. This is because of the possibility of obtaining inaccurate results and the possibility of
damaging the bearing or the journal surfaces. Each Cat engine bearing is quality checked for
specific wall thickness.

Note: The measurements should be within specifications and the correct bearings should be used.
If the crankshaft journals and the bores for the block and the rods were measured during
disassembly, no further checks are necessary. However, if the technician still wants to measure the
bearing clearances, Tooling (A) is an acceptable method. Tooling (A) is less accurate on journals
with small diameters if clearances are less than 0.10 mm (0.004 inch).

NOTICE

Lead wire, shim stock or a dial bore gauge can damage the bearing
surfaces.

The technician must be very careful to use Tooling (A) correctly. The following points must be
remembered:

• Ensure that the backs of the bearings and the bores are clean and dry.

• Ensure that the bearing locking tabs are properly seated in the tab grooves.

• The crankshaft must be free of oil at the contact points of Tooling (A).

1. Put a piece of Tooling (A) on the crown of the bearing that is in the cap.

Note: Do not allow Tooling (A) to extend over the edge of the bearing.

2. Use the correct torque-turn specifications in order to install the bearing cap. Do not use an
impact wrench. Be careful not to dislodge the bearing when the cap is installed.

Note: Do not turn the crankshaft when Tooling (A) is installed.

3. Carefully remove the cap, but do not remove Tooling (A). Measure the width of Tooling
(A) while Tooling (A) is in the bearing cap or on the crankshaft journal. Refer to Illustration
1.

Illustration 1 g01152855

Typical Example

4. Remove all of Tooling (A) before you install the bearing cap.

Note: When Tooling (A) is used, the readings can sometimes be unclear. For example, all
parts of Tooling (A) are not the same width. Measure the major width in order to ensure that
the parts are within the specification range. Refer to Specifications Manual, "Connecting
Rod Bearing Journal" and Specifications Manual, "Main Bearing Journal" for the correct
clearances.

Note: Cat does not recommend the checking of the actual bearing clearances particularly on small
engines. This is because of the possibility of obtaining inaccurate results and the possibility of
damaging the bearing or the journal surfaces. Each Cat engine bearing is quality checked for
specific wall thickness.

Note: The measurements should be within specifications and the correct bearings should be used.
If the crankshaft journals and the bores for the block and the rods were measured during
disassembly, no further checks are necessary. However, if the technician still wants to measure the
bearing clearances, Tooling (A) is an acceptable method. Tooling (A) is less accurate on journals
with small diameters if clearances are less than 0.10 mm (0.004 inch).

NOTICE

Lead wire, shim stock or a dial bore gauge can damage the bearing
surfaces.

The technician must be very careful to use Tooling (A) correctly. The following points must be
remembered:

• Ensure that the backs of the bearings and the bores are clean and dry.

• Ensure that the bearing locking tabs are properly seated in the tab grooves.

• The crankshaft must be free of oil at the contact points of Tooling (A).

1. Put a piece of Tooling (A) on the crown of the bearing that is in the cap.

Note: Do not allow Tooling (A) to extend over the edge of the bearing.

2. Use the correct torque-turn specifications in order to install the bearing cap. Do not use an
impact wrench. Be careful not to dislodge the bearing when the cap is installed.

Note: Do not turn the crankshaft when Tooling (A) is installed.

3. Carefully remove the cap, but do not remove Tooling (A). Measure the width of Tooling
(A) while Tooling (A) is in the bearing cap or on the crankshaft journal. Refer to Illustration
1.

Illustration 1 g01152855

Typical Example

4. Remove all of Tooling (A) before you install the bearing cap.

Note: When Tooling (A) is used, the readings can sometimes be unclear. For example, all
parts of Tooling (A) are not the same width. Measure the major width in order to ensure that
the parts are within the specification range. Refer to Specifications Manual, "Connecting
Rod Bearing Journal" and Specifications Manual, "Main Bearing Journal" for the correct
clearances.

If the TROUBLESHOOTING gives an indication of leakage through a control valve(s), disconnect


the delivery hose at the end opposite the delivery port (disconnect signal hoses when checking
control valve for service brakes). Put the end of the hose in a pan of water to check for leakage.

The brake system is activated by air pressure. Air compressor (5) sends pressure air to air tank (14)
through the one-way check valves (11) and (15). The air tank is divided into two separate sections.
Each section has a safety valve and a drain valve.

Pressure air goes from dual brake control valve (8) to activate the brakes. In case of a failure in a
line or one of the circuits, one section of the air tank will still have pressure air to engage the brakes
on one drive tandem.

Air Tank
(11) One-way check valve (14) Air tank (15) One-way check valve

Service Brakes
Four disc-type brakes, one in each wheel spindle housing, are used for the service brake system. The
cooling of the brakes is through the oil in the drive tandems. The service brakes are activated by air
pressure.

Typical Example Gauge Panel


(20) Air pressure gauges

Air from both sections of air tank (14) goes to dual brake control valve (8) for the service brakes.

Control Valve For Service Brakes


(8) Dual brake control valve (23) Stoplight switch

Pushing the brake pedal on the dual brake control valve (8) sends an air signal to let part of the
pressure air from the air tank go to the brakes. The position of the brake pedal controls the amount
of the air signal. When the brake pedal is held in the brake ON position, dual brake control valve (8)
stops the air signal to the brakes. Pressure air is held in the brakes to keep the brakes in the brake
ON position.

When the brake pedal is released the air signal is released through the dual brake control valve. With
no air signal in the lines to the brakes the brakes are released.

Parking Brake
A disc-type brake in the front part of the transmission housing is used as the parking brake.
Rotochamber (17) on the side of the transmission activates the brake. The parking brake is air
released and spring engaged.

Air from the dual brake control valve (8) goes through one-way check valve (6). When the parking
brake lever is pulled to the rear, pressure air goes through the parking brake valve (7).

Typical Example Rotochamber For Parking Brake


(17) Rotochamber

Air then goes through the quick release valve into rotochamber (17). The pressure air moves the rod
and rod end. The rod end is connected to a lever on the front of the transmission housing. This lever
is connected to the parking brake piston in the transmission. As the rotochamber moves the rod end
and the lever down, the piston is turned to release the disc-type brake. The one-way check valve
prevents the parking brake from engaging if air pressure to the control valve is low.

When the lever is pushed forward to the PARK position, the inlet port in valve (7) for the parking
brake closes and the exhaust port opens to release the air in the line to quick release valve (18). The

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 17

exhaust port of the quick release valve then opens to release the air in the rotochamber. With no
pressure air in the rotochamber, the spring force moves the rod and rod end out of the rotochamber.
This moves the lever on the transmission to engage the parking brake.

Lever For Parking Brake In Park Position

When the machine is stopped and the lever is pushed to the PARK position, the transmission shift
lever is held in the NEUTRAL position. In an emergency, when the machine is being operated, the
lever can be pushed to the PARK position.

This will engage the parking brake and also move the transmission shift lever to the NEUTRAL
position.

Centershift Lock
The location of centershift lock (24) is on the front of the link bar. When the lock pin is not engaged
with the lock plate, the link bar and the circle can be moved to put the blade in the correct position
for the job application.

Typical Example Centershift Lock


(24) Centershift lock

Centershift control valve (22) is on the console to the right of the seat. This control valve controls
the flow of air to the lock pin. The machine is normally operated with the control valve in the LOCK
position. Since the lock pin can not be seen by the operator, indicators on the rear of the lock plate
show the operator when the lock pin is in alignment with the correct hole in the lock plate.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 17

Centershift Indicators

Air from the dual brake control valve (8) goes to centershift control valve (22). In the LOCK
position, air goes through the valve to the spring side of the piston in the lock pin housing. The force
of the springs and the pressure air hold the lock pin in the LOCK position. In order to move the link
bar and the circle to another location, the lever on centershift control valve (22) first must be moved
to the INDEX position. This releases the air from the spring side of the piston. The lever is then
moved to the RETRACT position. Pressure air is sent to the other side of the piston to pull the lock
pin out of the lock plate against the force of the springs. The centershift cylinder and the lift
cylinders are then operated to move the link bar and the circle to the desired location. The one-way
check valve (25) prevents the centershift lock from operating if air pressure to control valve is low.

When the lock pin is near the correct hole in the lock plate, the lever on the control valve is moved
back to the INDEX position. This releases the pressure air holding the lock pin away from the lock
plate. When the lock pin is in alignment with the correct hole, the spring force will push the lock pin
part of the way into the lock plate. The lever on the centershift control valve is then moved to the
LOCK position to again send pressure air to the spring side of the piston. The spring force and the
pressure air will then fully engage the lock pin in the lock plate.

Control Lever For Centershift Control Valve

Electric Warning System


The warning system has three separate circuits. The main circuit has an electric buzzer and an
indicator light (26) for low air pressure. Two pressure switches (12), one on each section of dual
brake control valve for service brakes are connected to the buzzer and the indicator light. In case of
a failure in either half of the air system, one of the pressure switches will close at approximately 517
kPa (75 psi). This completes a circuit to operate the buzzer and the indicator light. The operator can
then safely stop the machine and look at air pressure gauges (20) on the front of the engine
compartment to see which part of the system has the failure.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 6 of 17

NOTE: The electric buzzer is under the panel to the right of the seat.

Warning Lights
(26) Indicator light for service brakes

The last circuit is for the brake lights. A stoplight switch is in the line from dual brake control valve
(8) for service brakes to one of the lines to the brakes. When the foot pedal is pushed, the stoplight
switch closes. This completes a circuit to operate brake lights.

Each warning circuit is connected to the battery through a separate fuse in the fuse box.

Air Compressor And Governor


The engine operates air compressor (5) through the timing gears. The air compressor governor (4)
controls the system air pressure.

The governor keeps the air pressure in the system constant. When the engine is started, the
compressor runs until the pressure in the system is at the cutout setting of 930 ± 34 kPa (135 ± 5
psi). At this setting, pressure air moves the governor piston to let air go through the governor to the
unloading valves in the compressor. Pressure air holds the unloading valves open to stop the flow of
air from the compressor.

When the system air pressure is at the cut-in setting of 758 kPa (110 psi) min the force of the
governor spring moves the governor piston to stop the flow of air to the unloading valves. The
unloading valves close and the compressor again sends pressure air to the system.

Typical Example Air Compressor And Governor

Control Valve For Service Brakes


Right Brake Application
When the brake pedal is pushed, plunger (1) puts force on spring seat (3), rubber spring (4) and
piston (5). The seat (6) seats on inlet and exhaust valve (9) and closes exhaust passage (7). Inlet and
exhaust valve (9) is moved off seat (8) to let pressure air from supply port (11) go out delivery port
(10) to the brakes for the right side of the machine.

NOTE: Because of the small amount of pedal movement and air needed to move the relay piston
(12), the brakes for the left side of the machine are applied almost the same time, (almost
simultaneous) as the brakes for the right side of the machine.

Left Brake Application


When the inlet and exhaust valve (9) is moved off of its seat (8), exhaust seat (14) seats on inlet and
exhaust valve (20) and closes exhaust passage (15). Inlet and exhaust valve (20) is moved off seat
(19) to let air from supply port (17) go out delivery port (18) to the brakes for the left side of the
machine.

Releasing the Brakes


When the brake pedal is released, mechanical force is removed from the spring seat (3), rubber
spring (4) and piston (5). Air pressure and spring force moves piston (5) which in turn moves relay
piston (12) by way of screw (2). Seat (6) is moved away from inlet and exhaust valve (9). Inlet and
exhaust valve (9) moves into contact with seat (8) and air pressure in the lines to the brakes for the
right side of the machine goes through the center of the valve and out the exhaust port (21) and the
brakes for the right side of the machine are released. At the same time, exhaust seat (14) moves
away from inlet and exhaust valve (20) and inlet and exhaust valve moves into contact with seat
(19). Passage (15) is closed off to stop air flow from supply port (17) to delivery port (18). Air
pressure in the lines to the bakes for the left side of the machine goes through the center of the inlet
and exhaust valve (20) and out the exhaust port (21) and the brakes for the left side of the machine
are released.

Loss of Brakes for Left Side


Should air pressure in the circuit for the brakes on the left side of the machine be lost, the circuit for
the brakes on the right side of the machine will still provide for brakes on the right side of the
machine.

Loss of Brakes for Right Side


Should air pressure in the circuit for the brakes on the right side of the machine be lost, the brakes
for the left side of the machine can still be applied. As the brake pedal is pushed, and there is no air
pressure at supply port (11) and delivery port (10), there will be no brakes for the right side of the
machine. Piston (5) will mechanically move relay piston (12) to close inlet and exhaust valve (20)
and let air pressure from supply port (17) go out delivery port (18) to the brakes for the left side of
the machine.

Brakes Balanced (Right Side)


When the air pressure at the delivery port (10) is the same as the mechanical force of the brake
pedal, piston (5) will move and the inlet and exhaust valve (9) will close and stop the flow of air
from supply port (11). The inlet and exhaust valve (20) will stay closed and will not let air pressure
go out through exhaust port (21).

Brakes Balanced (Left Side)

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 9 of 17

When the air pressure under relay piston (12) is near the air pressure on top of it, the relay piston
(12) moves to close the passage (15) and stops the flow of air from supply port (17) to delivery port
(18). Exhaust port (21) will stay closed as the air pressure for the brakes on the left side of the
machine becomes the same as the air pressure for the brakes on the right side of the machine.

When brake applications are made gradual, a balance position in the section for the brakes on the
right side of the machine is reached when the air pressure at the delivery port (10) is the same as the
pressure of the operator's foot on the pedal. A balance position is reached in the section for the
brakes on the left side of the machine when the air pressure under the relay piston (12) gets close
(approaches) the air pressure above the relay piston (12).

When the brake pedal is pushed all the way down, both the inlet and exhaust valves (9) and (20) are
open and full air pressure for the air tanks go to the brakes for both sides of the machine.

Service Brakes
The power from the differential is through drive chain (3) to sprocket (1). The sprocket turns wheel
spindle (5), hub (2) and discs (8) in wheel spindle housing (13). The drive wheels are connected to
flange (14) of wheel spindle (5).

The disc-type brakes, one in each wheel spindle housing, are operated by air pressure from the
service brake control valve. Each brake is made up of discs (7) connected to spindle housing (13)
and discs (8) connected to hub (2). The cooling of the brakes is through the oil in the drive tandems.

Pressure air goes through port (10) into air compartment (9). Air then moves piston (11) against
discs (7) and (8). The piston pushes the discs against cover (6). As the air pressure becomes higher,
the force of piston (11) pushing against the discs causes friction between the discs. As the friction
becomes greater, discs (8), hub (2) and wheel spindle (5) will start to slow down, since discs (7) and
wheel spindle housing (13) cannot turn. This is the brake ON position, but the brakes are not fully
engaged.

If the operator pushes the foot brake pedal down completely, the control valve for the service brakes
will send a large air signal to let the air pressure in air compartment (9) become higher. The friction
between discs will then become great enough to stop discs (8), hub (2) and wheel spindle (5).

When the operator releases the foot brake pedal, the pressure air in air compartment (9) is released
through port (10) to the exhaust port in the relay valves. Spring (12) then pushes piston (11) back to
the brake OFF position. Discs (8) are again free to turn between discs (7).

Control Valve For Parking Brake


The location of the control valve for the parking brake is under the console for the transmission shift
lever. The safety lever between slots for the transmission shift lever operates the control valve.

Control Valve For Parking Brake


(1) Piston (2) Stem (3) Chamfer on stem (4) Spring (5) Supply port (6) Exhaust port (7) Delivery port

The flow of air is through a one-way check valve to supply port (5). When the parking brake lever is
pulled to the rear of its slot, piston (1) is moved into the control valve. The piston pushes stem (2)
down to open a passage from supply port (5) to delivery port (7). Chamfer (3) closes the opening
from delivery port (7) to exhaust port (6). Pressure air goes through the control valve through the
quick release valve to the rotochamber. Pressure air in the rotochamber then releases the parking
brake.

When the lever is pushed to the PARK position, spring (4) moves stem (2) and piston (1) up to stop
the flow of air to delivery port (7). This opens the passage from the delivery port to exhaust port (6).
Air in the line to the quick release valve is released through the exhaust port. Pressure air in the
rotochamber is then released through the quick release valve. The spring in the rotochamber can
then engage the parking brake.

Quick Release Valve


The quick release valve is connected to the inlet port of the rotochamber for the parking brake. The
line from the delivery port of the control valve for the parking brake is connected to inlet port (4) on
the quick release valve.

The quick release valve is used to shorten the time needed to release the parking brake. It is used to
let the air out of the brake chamber sooner. Air is released through the exhaust port (7) in the quick
release valve so it does not have to go back to the control valve for the parking brake to get out.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 12 of 17

Operation
The quick release valve has three normal positions during operation. These positions are the
APPLICATION position (when air under pressure goes through the valve into the brake chamber),
the HOLD position (when pressure is kept in the brake chamber) and the EXHAUST position (when
air in brake chamber is being let out).

Quick Release Valve In Applied Position


(1) Outlet port to brake chamber (2) O-ring seal (3) Cover (4) Inlet port (5) Diaphragm (6) Body (7) Exhaust port (8)
Plug

When the brake control valve is opened, air under pressure enters inlet port (4) of quick release
valve and moves diaphragm (5) down, to close exhaust port (7). The outer edges of the diaphragm
are deflected downward allowing air under pressure to pass through outlet port (1) to brake chamber,
applying the brake. One quick release valve is shown. On the left valve, plug (8) is in opposite brake
port.

Quick Release Valve In Hold Position

As soon as brake chamber pressure below the diaphragm is equal to brake valve pressure above the
diaphragm, the edge of the diaphragm (5) moves up against the body. The center of the diaphragm
continues to cover exhaust port (7). This is the HOLDING position.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 13 of 17

Quick Release Valve In Exhaust Position

When brake control valve is CLOSED, line pressure on top of diaphragm is released. The brake
chamber pressure below center of the diaphragm raises it, opening exhaust port (7) and permitting
brake chamber air to be released to atmosphere.

The diaphragm again assumes HOLDING position as soon as pressure above and below it is
equalized.

Use a nonflammable cleaning solvent to clean any accumulations of grease and dirt from the area of
the quick release valve.

Disassemble quick release valve and inspect diaphragm (5) for wear or cracking. Contact surface of
the diaphragm should be free of pits or grooves.

Inspect seats on body (6) and cover (3).

Parking Brake
The location of the parking brake is around the No. 7 clutch in the planetary group of the
transmission. The parking brake is made up of piston (1), plates (4) and discs (5). Discs (5) are
connected to ring gear (8) of the No. 7 clutch. Plates (4) are connected to housing (6) by pins and
can not turn. Ring gear (8) is connected to the pinion in the differential. Lever (11) is connected to
another lever inside of the transmission housing. This lever fits in a slot in piston (1).

In the PARK position, no pressure air is available to rotochamber (12). The spring in the
rotochamber will move lever (11) up. This causes the lever inside of the transmission to turn piston
(1). As the piston turns, balls (10) move up the taper of inserts (9). The piston is moved into contact
with plates (4) and discs (5). The piston pushes the plates and discs against housing (6). As the
friction between the plates and discs becomes greater, ring gear (8) is stopped. Since the ring gear is
connected to the pinion in the differential through output flange (7), the machine can not move.

Inserts (10) Balls

When the control lever is moved to the brake OFF position, pressure air is available to rotochamber
(12). The pressure air, working against the force of the spring in the rotochamber, will move the
lever (11) down. This causes the lever inside of the transmission to move piston (1) away from
plates (4) and discs (5). Discs (5) are then free to rotate with ring gear (8).

When the safety lever is pushed to the PARK position, pressure air in air compartment (3) is
released through port (5) to the exhaust port in the quick release valve. Spring (1) then moves piston
(2), sleeve (4) and rod (7) to the right. A rod end on rod (7) is connected to the parking brake lever
on the side of the transmission. As rod (7) moves out of housing (6), the parking brake lever is
moved to engage the parking brake.

When the lever is pulled to the brake OFF position, pressure air goes through port (5) to air
compartment (3). The pressure air moves piston (2), sleeve (4) and rod (7) back to the left. Rod (7)
then moves the parking brake lever to release the parking brake.

Centershift Control Valve


Pressure air goes through supply port (17) of the centershift control valve to the spring side of valve
(13). The pressure air then goes around housing (21) to the spring side of valve (15). In the INDEX
position, no pressure air is available to either delivery ports (11) or (12). The delivery ports are open
to the exhaust ports through passages (19) and (22) in pistons (5) and (6). Detent (2) holds lever (1)
in the correct position.

In the RETRACT position, lever (1) is pushed forward. Ear (4) on the lever turns to move piston (5)
down. When piston (5) comes into contact with valve (13), the opening to exhaust port (7) is closed.
The piston then moves valve (13) off its seat. This opens a passage to let pressure air from the
supply port go around valve (13) to delivery port (11). Pressure air then goes out delivery port (11)
to the centershift lock pin to push the pin out of the lock plate. Delivery port (12) is still open to
exhaust port (8) through passage (22) in piston (6). Detent (2) holds the lever in the correct position.

From the RETRACT position, lever (1) is first moved back to the INDEX position. This releases
this pressure in delivery port (11) through exhaust port (7) when piston (5) moves back to its
original position. The lever is then pulled to the LOCK position. Ear (3) on the lever turns to move
piston (6) down. Delivery port (12) is then opened to the supply port in the same way as delivery
port (11) in the RETRACT position. Pressure air goes out delivery port (12) to push the lock pin
back into the lock plate. In this position delivery port (11) is open to exhaust port (7) through
passage (19) in piston (5). Detent (2) will also hold the lever in this position.

In the LOCK position, pressure air from the centershift control valve goes through port (9) to the
spring side of piston (3). The pressure air helps spring (4) engage lock pin (1) in the lock plate.

To push the lock pin out of the lock plate, the centershift control valve is first moved to the INDEX
position. This releases the pressure air in port (9) through the control valve. The control valve is then
moved to the RETRACT position. Pressure air from the control valve is then sent through port (8) to
the lock pin side of piston (3). The pressure air has enough force to push the lock pin out of the lock
plate against the force of spring (4).

Air Dryer
Glossary
To better understand the operation of the air dryer, a glossary of words and definitions is provided.

Absorption: To collect molecules (small particles) of a gas or substance (foreign material) on micro-
crystalline particles (very small crystal-like particles).

Desiccant: A drying material for the air dryer (drying bed).

Purge Valve: The drain valve to let the moisture and other foreign material, taken from the air, go
out of the air dryer.

Condensation: Moisture in the air that has changed into water.

Typical Air Circuit Schematic


(1) One-way check valve (two). (2) Air reservoir. (3) Inlet line from air compressor. (4) Air compressor governor. (5)
Air compressor. (6) Outlet line to air reservoir. (7) Air dryer. (8) Unloader line from air compressor governor.

The air dryer (7) is used to remove moisture, carbon and oil from the compressed air before it gets to
the air reservoir (2). Clean, dry air is very important for safe operation and performance of brake
systems that use compressed air. Clean, dry air will also prevent corrosion of parts.

The air dryer (7) is installed in a vertical position. It is in the air system between the air compressor
(5) and the air reservoir (2).

With the use of the air dryer, it is not necessary to drain the air reservoir daily. The cartridge
(canister) of the air dryer can be removed and replaced as a unit. The parts of the cartridge
(desiccant beads and filter) can also be removed and replaced separately.

During cold weather, the heating element in the air dryer keeps moisture from freezing in the bottom
of the air dryer housing.

Compression Cycle

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 6

Flow Of Air During Compression Cycle (Compressor Loaded)


(1) Cap. (2) Outlet passage. (3) Inlet passage. (4) Cartridge. (5) Housing. (6) Desiccant. (7) Filter.

Moisture, carbon and oil is removed from the compressed air in three steps:

* cooling
* filtering
* absorption

Cooling

With the air compressor in its loaded or compression cycle, warm, moist air from the air compressor
goes through inlet passage (3). The air goes down between housing (5) and cartridge (4). The air is
cooled on the way down. This cooling changes the oil and water vapor to a liquid (condensation).

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 6

As the air turns to go up through the cartridge (4), much of the oil and water drops to the bottom of
housing (5).

Filtering

When the air goes into cartridge (4), it goes first through filter (7). The filter removes additional dirt
particles, oil and water mist.

Absorption

From filter (7) the air then passes up through desiccant (6). The desiccant is a "drying bed" that
removes additional moisture from the air by absorption.

The "dry" air now goes out of cartridge (4) through outlet passage (2) in cap (1) to the air reservoir.

Purge Cycle

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 6

Flow Of Air During Purge Cycle (Compressor Unloaded)


(1) Outlet passage. (2) Inlet passage. (3) Cartridge. (4) Housing. (5) Desiccant. (6) Spring. (7) Purge valve. (8) Filter. (9)
Heater passage. (10) Purge passage. (11) Unloader passage.

For the unloaded or purge cycle, the air flow through cartridge (3) of the air dryer is the reverse of
the compression cycle.

When the air system gets to the pressure setting (cutout pressure) of the air compressor governor, the
governor operates the unloader valve(s) in the air compressor. The unloader valve(s) stop the flow of
air from the air compressor.

At this time, air goes to unloader passage (11) of the air dryer. This air pressure raises purge valve
(7) off its seat and causes a sudden loss of air pressure out of purge passage (10) in the air dryer. The
air from outlet passage (1) moves suddenly (rushes) down through desiccant (5) and filter (8). Any
foreign material (water, oil, dirt, etc.) in the desiccant, filter and the bottom of housing (4) goes
around purge valve (7) and out purge passage (10) to the atmosphere. The compressed air, that has

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 6 of 6

been dried by the desiccant, is very efficient in the removal of water on its reverse flow through
desiccant (5).

The purge valve stays in the open (purge) position until the pressure in the air system decreases,
through usage, to the cut-in pressure of the air compressor governor. At this point, the governor
moves the unloader valve(s) to permit air flow from the air compressor to inlet passage (2) and into
the air reservoir. The flow of air to unloader passage (11) is now stopped and spring (6) moves
purge valve (7) down to the closed position. The compression cycle now starts again.

A heating element is installed in heater passage (9) to keep the moisture in housing (4) from
freezing.

Maintenance
NOTE: The check for water may be made at 250 service hours but it is not expected that
maintenance of the desiccant will be required for at least 1000 service hours.

If the desiccant in the cartridge does not have enough water absorption ability, make the following
checks:

1. Check for water in the air tank. Open the drains on the tank. In areas where there is more than 30°
F (17°C) change in ambient temperature, there can be water in the air tanks because of condensation.
A small amount of water from condensation is normal and is not an indication that the air dryer is
not in operation. Steps A, B and C are probable causes of too much water in the air reservoirs.

A. Air from another machine without an air dryer was put in the air reservoir and did not go
through an air dryer.
B. Too much air has been used for a long time and the air compressor has not been let to load
and unload in a normal way (abnormal usage of air compressor).
C. The air dryer has been installed on a machine that did not have one before. This type of
system will be saturated with moisture and several weeks of operation may be needed to dry it
out.

2. Check all bolts that hold the air dryer to see that they are tight. Check all air and electrical
connections.

3. With the compressor loaded (compressing air), put a mixture of liquid soap and water on the
exhaust passage of the purge valve to see if there is an air leak in the valve.

4. Pull on the stem of the air relief valve while the air compressor is loaded (compressing air). There
must be an exhaust of air from the valve and it must stop when the stem of the valve is released.

5. Check all lines and fittings that go to and from the air dryer for leakage.

6. Check the operation of the heater during cold weather operation.

If there is still not enough water absorption ability, put a new or rebuilt desiccant cartridge in the air
dryer.

Testing And Adjusting


SMCS - 1052-012

Introduction
Reference: For Specifications with illustrations, make reference to the Specifications for 120G,
130G and 140G Motor Graders Air System and Brakes, Form SENR3607. If the Specifications
given in Form SENR3607 are not the same as given in the Systems Operation and the Testing And
Adjusting, look at the printing date on the back cover of each book. Use the Specifications given
in the book with the latest date.

If the TROUBLESHOOTING gives an indication of leakage through a control valve(s),


disconnect the delivery hose at the end opposite the delivery port (disconnect signal hoses when
checking control valve for service brakes). Put the end of the hose in a pan of water to check for
leakage.

Before making any checks of the air system and brakes, move the
machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Install the protective lock pin
and lower all implements to the ground. Make sure the parking brake
lever is in the PARK position. Keep all other personnel either away
from the machine or where they can be seen. Put blocks in front of and
behind the wheels.

Visual Checks
Before making any operation checks to the air system and brakes, visually inspect the complete
system as follows:

1. Check for cracks or wear in hoses and lines.

2. Check for restriction to flow; like sharp bends, clamps that are not installed correctly and
damage to hoses and lines.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 12

3. Check for loose connections.

4. Check for damage to components.

Operation Checks
Operation Checks of the air system and brakes can be used to find the source of leakage in the
system or to make a diagnosis of bad performance.

NOTE: Before making any operation checks, be sure the drain valve(s) are opened to release any
water in the air tank. Water causes a reduction in the volume of air in the tank. During normal
operation of the machine, this reduction can cause the air compressor to run constantly. Close the
drain valves.

Leakage Checks
NOTE: It is possible to hear the sound of air leakage. Air leakage can be seen when soapy water
is put on the connections, valves and hoses.

1. Start the engine and let the air pressure go up to the cutout pressure. Stop the engine.

2. Check for leakage in the hoses and connections from the air compressor and governor to the air
tank.

3. Check for leakage in hoses, lines, connections and components from the air tank to the control
valves.

4. Check for leakage in the control valves.

5. Push the brake pedal for the service brakes down and check for leakage in the signal hoses and
connections from the brake control valve to the hoses, lines and connections to the service brakes.
Release the brake pedal.

6. Pull the parking brake lever to the brake OFF position and check for leakage in the hose and
connections from the control valve for the parking brake to the quick release valve on the
rotochamber.

NOTE: If the air pressure in the tanks gets too low, start and run the engine until the air pressure
gets up to the cutout pressure.

7. Check the quick release valve and the rotochamber for leakage. Push the lever to the PARK
position.

8. With the lever on the centershift control valve in the LOCK position, check the hose and
connections from the control valve to the front port on the lock pin.

9. Move the lever to the RETRACT position and check the hose and connections from the control
valve to the back port on the lock pin. Check the lock pin.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022

While doing the operation checks of the parking brake and service
brakes, fasten the seat belt. Be ready for the sudden stop.

Parking Brake Check


1. Start the engine and let the air pressure go up to the cutout pressure.

2. Operate the machine in third speed forward at high idle on a clay-type surface.

3. Push the brake pedal down fully.

4. The rear wheels must slide and stop (stall) the engine.

5. If the wheels do not slide and the engine does not stall and no leakage was found in the service
brake circuit, see TROUBLESHOOTING.

Troubleshooting
1. PARKING BRAKE NOT ENGAGING CORRECTLY

Causes:

a. Clearance adjustment for control valve not correct.

4. SERVICE BRAKES NOT RELEASING CORRECTLY.

Causes:

a. Adjustment of screw on plunger of control valve does not let the piston in control valve
release completely.
b. Wear or damage to control valve prevents or slows the release of pressure air from the
signal hoses to the service brakes.
c. Wear or damage to the control valve permits leakage of pressure air to one or both of the
service brakes in the brake OFF position.

5. CENTERSHIFT LOCK PIN NOT OPERATING CORRECTLY.

Causes:

a. No pressure air at supply port of control valve.


b. Wear or damage to control valve prevents or slows the release of pressure air from one or
both of the hoses to the lock pin.
c. Wear or damage to the control valve permits little or no pressure air at one or both of the
ports of the lock pin.
d. Wear or damage to control valve permits leakage of pressure air to one or both of the

2. Remove both drain valves and install a reducing bushing and a quick connective nipple in the
opening for each drain valve.

3. Install the quick connective couplings on the pressure gauges and connect the hose assemblies
to the air tank and the pressure gauges.

4. Start the engine and let the pressure go up to cutout pressure.

5. Make a comparison of the pressure gauges on the machine with test pressure gauges of known
accuracy.

6. The gauges on the left and right side of the gauge panel are for the left and the right sections of
the air tank respectively.

7. If the pressure on the gauges on the machine is more than 5 psi (35 kPa) different than the
pressure on the test gauges, install new gauge(s).

8. If it is necessary to install a new gauge, stop the engine and push the brake pedal rapidly until
the pressure air in the tank is released.

Typical Example Test Gauges


9. Do not disconnect the test gauges. They will be used in other tests.

Air Compressor Governor


1. Start the engine and let the air pressure go up to the cutout pressure.

2. Read the cutout pressure on the test gauge connected to the left section of the air tank.

3. Push the brake pedal rapidly several times

4. Read the cut-in pressure on the test gauge.

Typical Example Governor Adjustment


5. The correct cut-in pressure is 758 kPa (110 psi) min. The correct cutout pressure is 930 ± 34
kPa (135 ± 5 psi).

If necessary, make an adjustment to the air compressor governor as follows:

a. Remove the rubber cover on top of the governor.

b. Loosen the locknut on the adjustment screw.

c. Turn the screw to change the pressure setting. A counterclockwise turn of the screw makes the
cut-in pressure lower.

6. If the adjustment screw does not change the cut-in pressure, the unloading valves in the air
compressor are not working correctly.

7. If the cut-in to cutout pressure difference is not correct, the governor is not working correctly.

6G8425 Control Valve For Service Brakes

A change in braking characteristics or a low pressure warning may be


an indication of a failure in one of the brake circuits. The machine
should not be operated until repairs have been made and all circuits
have been checked. Always check the brakes after brake repair before
the machine is put back into use.

Every 300 service hours, clean around the pedal, plunger boot and mounting plate. Lubricate the
pedal roller, roller pin and hinge pin. Inspect the plunger boot (1) and replace if damaged. Check
the mounting plate and pedal for correct installation and alignment. Lubricate the plunger (2) with
5P960 Multipurpose-type grease.

Every 2000 service hours inspect the inlet and exhaust valves (5) and (7), O-ring seals, rubber
spring (3) and all other parts. Replace the parts that show wear or damage.

Use two 8M2885 Pressure Gauges [0 to 1380 kPa (0 to 200 psi(] to check the delivery pressure for
the service brakes on both sides of the machine. Connect the gauges to the delivery ports (4) and
(6).

(1) Plunger boot (2) Plunger (3) Rubber spring (4) Delivery port (5) Inlet and exhaust valve (6) Delivery port (7) Inlet
and exhaust valve (8) Exhaust port
Push the brake pedal to several positions between fully released and fully applied. Check the
delivery pressure on the test gauges to see that it varies (changes), the same amount for both left
and right brakes with movement of the brake pedal.

Make a full application of the brakes. Release the brakes. The reading on the test gauges should go
to 0 kPa (0 psi) very fast when the brakes are released.

The delivery air pressure shown on both test gauges with both air tank pressures the same, should
be within 35 kPa (5 psi). This is normal for this valve.

Leakage Check

Make and hold a full application of the brakes, 795 to 965 kPa (115 to 140 psi). Put a mixture of
soap and water on the exhaust port (8). Permissible leakage is a 25.0 mm (1 in.) bubble in three
seconds. If the leakage is more, repair the valve and test again.

Control Valve Adjustment

Remove all of the air pressure from the air tank and lines.

Introduction
SMCS - 1052-012

When the words "use again" are in the description, the specification given can be used to
determine if a part can be used again. If the part is equal to or within the specification given, use
the part again.

When the word "permissible" is in the description, the specification given is the "maximum or
minimum" tolerance permitted before adjustment, repair and/or new parts are needed.

A comparison can be made between the measurements of a worn part and the specifications of a
new part to find the amount of wear. A part that is worn can be safe to use if an estimate of the
remainder of its service life is good. If a short service life is expected, replace the part.

New And Use Again Dimensions For Parts In Service Brakes


SMCS - 1052-012

The new and use again dimensions for each brake disc and disc assembly are shown in the chart
which follows. Also given in the chart are dimensions to show when a brake pack is worn and needs
inspection and/or replacement of parts as needed.

Check each disc assembly for possible damage or any indication that the friction material is badly
burned. If only one side of the disc assembly is worn, the grooves must be at least 0.127 mm (.005
in.) deep. During brake installation, put the thicker disc assemblies in the middle of the pack where
wear is faster.

Assembly And Installation Of Conventional Duo-Cone Seals


SMCS - 1052-012

This instruction gives the procedure for installing Conventional Duo-Cone Seals.

It is most important that correct assembly and installation procedures are followed when Duo-
Cone Seals are used. Many of the Duo-Cone Seal failures are the direct result of one or more
mistakes made during assembly or installation of the seal components.

(1) Seal Ring (2) Rubber Toric Ring (3) Housing Retaining Lip (4) Housing Ramp (5) Seal Ring Housing

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 8

(6) Seal Ring Face (7) Seal Ring Ramp (8) Seal Ring Retaining Lip (9) Installation Tool.

1. Remove any oil film, dust or other foreign matter from toric rubber rings (2) and from ramps (4)
and (7) and lips (3) and (8) of both seal rings (1) and housings (5). Use isopropyl alcohol and
clean cloth or paper towels for wiping.

NOTICE

Never permit oil to get on the toric rings or ramps before both seal
rings are put together in their final assembled position (Step 10).

Avoid prolonged skin contact with isopropyl alcohol. Avoid breathing


the vapors in enclosed areas without adequate ventilation and do not
smoke. Do not use near open flame or welding operations or other
heated surfaces exceeding 482° C (900° F).

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 8

2. Put toric ring (2) on seal ring (1), at the bottom of seal ring ramp (7) and against retaining lip
(8).

NOTICE

Make sure that toric ring (2) is straight on seal ring (1) and is not
twisted. Be careful when you work on the rubber toric ring. Nicks, cuts
and scratches can cause leaks.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 8

3. Put installation tool (9) onto seal ring (1) with toric ring (2). Lower the rings into a container
with isopropyl alcohol until all surfaces of toric ring (2) are wet.

NOTICE

Do not use stanisol or any other liquid that leaves an oil film or does
not evaporate quickly.

4. With all surfaces of toric ring (2) wet, use installation tool (9) to position seal ring (1) and toric
ring (2) squarely against housing (5) as shown. Use sudden and even pressure to pop (push) toric
ring (2) under retaining lip (3) of housing (5).

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 8

5. Check assembled height (A) in at least four places, 90° apart. The difference in height around
the ring must not be more than 1 mm (.04").

6. If small adjustments are necessary, do not push directly on seal ring (1); use installation tool (9).

7. Toric ring (2) can twist if it is not wet all around during installation or if there are burrs or fins
on retaining lip (3) of housing (5).

NOTICE

Misalignments, twists and bulges of the toric ring will cause Duo-Cone
Seal failures. If correct installation is not obvious, remove seal from
housing and repeat Steps 3 thru 6.

IMPORTANT: Toric rings (2) must never slip on the ramps of either seal rings (1) or seal ring
housings (5). To prevent slippage, wait a minimum of two minutes to let the isopropyl alcohol
evaporate before further assembly. Once correctly in place, the toric ring must roll on the ramps
only.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 6 of 8

8. Wipe seal faces (6) of seal rings (1) clean. Use a lint free cloth or paper towel. No particles of
any kind are permissible on the sealing surfaces. Even a small piece from a paper towel can hold
the seal faces apart and cause leakage.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 7 of 8

9. Put a thin film of clean oil on the seal faces. Use an applicator, a disposable tissue or a clean
finger to distribute the oil evenly. Be careful not to get any oil on the rubber toric rings.

10. Make sure both housings (5) are in correct alignment and are concentric. Move the parts
slowly and carefully toward each other.

NOTICE

Do not slam seals together. High impact can scratch or break the seal
components. Once in place, fasten all parts tightly.

The cab air filters are designed to provide clean air to the evaporator and the heater coils. The cab
air filters are also designed to keep the cab pressurized. If the filters are not properly maintained,
the coils will be coated with dirt. Dirty coils will result in loss of heating and cooling. Dirty coils
could also result in failure of the compressor. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Coil Cleaning".

Illustration 1 g01517100

Cab air filters should be inspected regularly. Any inspection variance depends on the
environmental conditions. Fresh air filters should be checked after every shift (8 to 10 hours).
Fresh air filters should be changed after every week (40 to 50 hours). Recirculation filters should
be checked after every week (40 to 50 hours). Recirculation filters should be changed after every
month (160 to 200 hours). Inspect the filter for holes. Look through the filter toward a bright light.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 6 of 8

Check for damaged gaskets or dented metal parts. Do not use damaged filters. For extreme dust
conditions, the filters should be inspected daily, and the filters should be cleaned whenever is
necessary.

Illustration 2 g01517101

Remove loose dirt with compressed air. Do not exceed 690 kPa (100 psi) from an air nozzle that is
3.18 mm (0.125 inch)diameter. Keep the air nozzle at least 51 mm (2 inch) from the filter.

The filters that are made of foam can be blown out with low-pressure air. The filters that are made
of foam can also be gently washed with a mild detergent. After washing the filters, dry the filters
with low-pressure air.

If the carbon is still active, the carbon impregnated filters may be blown out with low-pressure air.
Do not wash the carbon impregnated filters.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 7 of 8

Standard filters or high efficiency filters may be blown out with low-pressure air. Do not wash the
standard filters or the high efficiency filters.

Coil Cleaning

NOTICE

Do not use steam to clean the coils, under any circumstance. The heat
from the steam will induce thermal stresses on the construction of the
components of the coil. The stress can weaken the overall construction
and permanently damaging the coil.

NOTICE

Do not use any other objects in order to straighten the fins, such as a
screwdriver or a knife. These objects can damage the coil.

In order for an HVAC coil to function properly, air must be able to flow freely across the fins
without any major obstructions. Because the coils need to stay clean, cleaning the coil is important
in order for the coils to provide sufficient air flow. Some job applications may cause the coils to
become dirty quickly, and dirty coils requires frequent cleaning. There are different methods that
are utilized for proper cleaning. The different methods that are used depend on the type of coil that
is used.

Condenser coils typically have a thicker, more durable fin structure that is designed to withstand
the conditions of the environment. Due to the construction of the condenser coils, condenser coils
can be washed with a low-pressure power washer. Power wash in order to remove any dirt from
the coil and any debris from the coil. The coils should be cleaned from a safe distance. However,
if the nozzle is too close to the coil the water still can damage the fins.

The evaporator and heater coils typically reside within an enclosed area. In order to protect the
evaporator and the heater coils from the environment and outside dirt and debris. Therefore, the
construction is not strong enough to withstand washing with direct pressure. In order to clean the
coils, use a low-pressure air nozzle that is like the one that is used in cleaning the filter. Carefully
use the low-pressure air nozzle in order to blow out any dirt and debris that is present on the coils.

During normal operation and routine cleaning, the fins may possibly get bent. The bent fins could
cause blockages in the air flow, which will reduce overall system performance. Straighten the fins
by using the 208-1350 Radiator Tool Gp . Start at one side of the coil and work toward the other
side. Be careful not to rip or tear the fins during straightening, as this straightening will cause an
unwanted reduction in performance.

General Information
SMCS - 7000

Failure of an electrical component can cause the failure of other components. Also, failure of an
electrical component can be caused by the failure of other components. Always attempt to correct
the cause of an electrical system failure before you replace a component.

Note: If you suspect that there is a problem with the Machine Security System, ensure that
the machine starting system is working properly. Use the electrical system schematic to
troubleshoot the starting circuit.

Note: Electronic control modules seldom fail. Perform the troubleshooting procedures that
are provided in the Troubleshooting, "Symptom Procedures" section of this manual, before
you replace an ECM.

Test procedures progress from the most likely points of failure to the least likely points of failure.
The procedures normally proceed in the following order:

• A component is bad.

• Wiring or connectors are bad.

• An electronic module is bad.

Each procedure assumes the following data:

• No previous troubleshooting has been performed on the system.

• The system has not been altered.

Assume for repair:

• The batteries are fully charged and the charging system is operating properly.

• Caterpillar ® Electronic Technician (Cat ® ET) is available and the technician is trained on
the operation of Cat ET. See Troubleshooting, "Service Tools".

During troubleshooting, inspect all connections before any component is replaced. If the
connections are not clean and tight, permanent electrical problems or intermittent electrical

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022

Machine Preparation for Troubleshooting


SMCS - 7000-035

Warnings

Sudden movement of the machine or release of oil under pressure can


cause injury to persons on or near the machine.

To prevent possible injury, perform the procedure that follows before


testing and adjusting the power train.

Hot hydraulic oil under high pressure can remain in the components of
the hydraulic system or the power train system after the engine has been
stopped. The uncontrolled release of the hydraulic oil can cause sudden
machine movement and can also result in the following conditions:

• Burns

• The penetration of body tissue

• Other personal injury

• Death

If hydraulic oil penetrates body tissue, the injury must be treated


immediately by a doctor who is familiar with this type of injury. Use a
board or a piece of cardboard to check for a hydraulic oil leak. Make
sure that all of the attachments have been lowered to the ground and

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 4

that all trapped pressure has been released from the hydraulic system
and the power train system. Also, make sure that the hydraulic oil is
cool before the removal of any components or lines. Remove the
hydraulic oil filler cap only when the engine is stopped and the filler cap
is cool enough to touch with your bare hand.

Personal injury or death can result from not engaging the parking
brake.

Transmission engagement alone will not prevent machine from rolling


when the engine is stopped.

Personal injury can result if the machine moves while testing.

If the machine begins to move during test, reduce the engine speed
immediately and engage the parking brake.

Systems Operation
SMCS - 7000-035

Introduction
The supplemental steering system provides hydraulic oil flow to the steering system if the engine
fails or main hydraulic pump flow is lost while the machine is operating.

Component Location And Operation

Operator's Console
(1) Key start switch.
Switch (1) is located on the operator's right hand console. The switch must be turned to the ON
position to power-up the supplemental steering system.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 10

Left Front Of Engine Compartment


(2) Hydraulic tank. (3) Electric motor (130G shown). (4) Hydraulic pump. (5) Supply line. (6) Suction line.
Hydraulic tank (2) is located directly in front of the engine compartment. The tank is designed so the
suction line (standpipe) for supplemental steering pump (4) is several inches shorter than the suction
line (standpipe) for the main hydraulic pump. This assures (guarantees) a supply of oil in the
hydraulic tank just for the supplemental steering system. Hydraulic pump (4) is driven by electric
motor (3). Hydraulic oil is pulled from tank (2) through line (6) by pump (4). Pressure oil is then
pumped through line (5) to the steering accumulator.

Under Left Side Of Operator's Platform


(7) Priority valve (hidden). (8) Pressure switch.
Pressure switch (8) is mounted in priority valve (7). Switch (8) senses main hydraulic pump output
pressure. If primary hydraulic oil pressure falls below approximately 700 kPa (100 psi), switch (8)
opens. The open is read by control module (14), which then powers up electric motor (3).

Also mounted in the priority valve is a check valve that is part of the supplemental steering system.
It is installed in the signal line from the steering metering unit. The check valve prevents loss of
signal oil from the steering metering unit through the priority valve.

Under Left Side Of Operator's Platform


(5) Supply line. (9) Line to steering accumulator. (10) Relief valve. (11) Return line to hydraulic tank.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 10

Under Left Front Side Of Operator's Platform


(12) Steering accumulator. (13) Block.
Electric motor (3) drives pump (4), which pumps supply oil through line (5). Oil flows through the
tee and line (9) to steering accumulator block (13). Accumulator (12) with block (13) are mounted
along the inside edge of the cab by the left hand steps.

At 17 250 ± 700 kPa (2500 ± 100 psi), relief valve (10) opens. Pump oil is then directed through
return line (11) to the hydraulic tank.

There is a check valve at the end of line (9) where it joins with block (13) at the base of the steering
accumulator. This prevents reverse flow back through line (9) once the steering accumulator is
charged.

On 14G and 16G Motor Graders, there is an additional check valve in the return line to tank where
supplemental return oil joins oil cooler return oil. This directs supplemental return oil flow back to
tank and not backwards through the oil cooler.

(14) Electronic control module. (15) Disconnect switch.

EMS Panel
(16) Steering fault indicator light. (17) Supplemental steering motor indicator light. (18) Supplemental steering switch.
(19) Master fault light.
With disconnect switch (15) in the operate position, the supplemental steering system will perform a
three second power-up test when key start switch (1) is turned ON. For three seconds, electronic
control module (14) will turn ON supplemental steering motor (3) [which operates pump (4)] and
motor status light (17). During the three second test, the operator should be able to steer with normal
effort. The three second test allows the operator a quick check to make sure th front wheels turn
under supplemental steering conditions. During the three seconds, supplemental steering motor
status light (17) is also checked.

Until the engine is started, steering fault indicator light (16) and master fault light (19) will FLASH.
This indicates that supplemental steering electronic control module (14) is not activated. The module
becomes activated after the engine is started.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 10

Engine Start Up
After the three second power-up test, the operator starts the engine. As the engine comes up to
speed, the primary steering hydraulic system pressure closes normally open pressure switch (8).
Also, the alternator "R" terminal voltage rises to approximately 24 volts. Supplemental steering
electronic control module (14) senses (feels) both switch (8) closing and "R" terminal voltage, and
does the following:

1. Turns OFF steering fault indicator light (16) and master fault light (19).

2. Puts electronic control module (14) in an activated condition.

Only in this activated condition will a loss of pressure at pressure switch (8) cause the circuit to turn
ON supplemental steering motor (3).

After Engine Start Up - Warning Conditions


After the engine has been started, the warning conditions have the following meaning:

1. The steering fault indicator light (16) and master fault light (19) will FLASH and the horn
will sound if the primary steering system pressure is lost.
2. Supplemental steering motor status light (17) indicates that the supplemental steering motor
is running.

If either of the two warning conditions are observed, the operator


should bring the machine to a stop as soon as possible and have the
complete hydraulic and steering system checked before further machine
operation.

Electrical System

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 10

Supplemental Steering Electrical System Schematic


Supplemental steering control module (1) turns ON electric motor (9), motor status light (8),
steering fault indicator light (5), the master fault light and horn through three inputs. These three
inputs are from alternator "R" terminal (4), engine governor switch (2) and steering pressure switch
(3).

Alternator "R" Terminal


The electronic control module is connected to alternator "R" terminal (4). After engine start up,
voltage from alternator "R" terminal (4) activates an internal latch (electronic "fastener") in the
electronic control module, which activates the automatic supplemental steering system. After start
up, the latch makes the supplemental steering system independent of the alternator "R" terminal
current. It is unlatched by the governor switch, the disconnect switch or the key start switch.

Engine Governor Switch

Right Front Of Engine Compartment


(2) Governor Switch.

(10) Accelerator pedal.


Engine governor switch (2) is normally open (N.O.). In the closed position, the switch prevents
automatic actuation of the supplemental steering motor during normal engine shutdown.

Pull up by hand accelerator pedal (10) to both shutdown the engine and close governor switch (2).

Steering Pressure Switch

Under Left Side Of Operator's Platform


(3) Pressure switch. (11) Priority valve (hidden).
Steering pressure switch (3) is mounted in the body of priority valve (11). When the governor is in
its normal operating position and primary steering system pressure falls below approximately 700
kPa (100 psi) (either as a result of engine failure or primary hydraulic system failure upstream of the
steering valve), steering pressure switch (3) opens. This provides the input to the electronic control
module to turn supplemental steering ON. Primary hydraulic pressure must return to 1206 kPa (175
psi) or above to close pressure switch (3).

(1) Electronic Control Module.

EMS Panel
(5) Steering fault indicator light. (6) Supplemental steering switch. (8) Supplemental steering motor indicator light. (12)
Master fault light.
Electronic control module (1) controls the three second power-up test and [depending on switch (6)
position] controls automatic actuation of the supplemental steering system.

In the automatic switch position, the following condition(s) must exist before electronic control
module (1) actuates electric motor (9) and indicator light (8):

1. Electronic control module (1) must have been actuated (placed in ready position) by voltage
from alternator "R" terminal (4).
2. Loss of hydraulic oil pressure with governor switch (2) in its normal operating position.
3. Steering pressure switch (3) is open.

With these conditions present, electronic module (1) closes magnetic switch (7). This completes the
circuit to supplemental steering pump motor (9) and to motor indicator light (8). At the same time,
electronic control module (1) actuates steering fault indicator light (5), master fault light (12) and the
horn.

position. With the key start swith ON, this action will bypass electronic control module (1) and it's
three sensor inputs and closes magnetic switch (7), turning ON motor indicator light (8). This
position of the Auto/Manual switch is generally used only to test the supplemental steering pump
and the motor status light, or turn the front wheels while testing the system. Supplemental steering
pump motor (9) is mounted to the left front in the engine compartment.

The machine's batteries must have a normal charge and the


supplemental steering electrical system must be okay. A low charge
condition, or any defect in the battery, battery cells, or electrical circuit
can cause loss of supplemental steering and could result in personal
injury and/or damage to the machine.

System Operation
The supplemental steering system provides supplement (back up) hydraulic oil flow to the pressure
port of the steering metering pump if the engine or the main hydraulic pump should fail.

Supplemental steering pump (5) pulls oil from hydraulic tank (13) through line (12). Pressure oil is
then sent through line (7) to steering accumulator (9) and steering metering unit (3).

The supplemental steering system is isolated from the primary hydraulic system oil by three check
valves. Check valve (11) is located in the base of the steering accumulator in line (7). It allows
pressure oil from pump (5) to charge the steering accumulator and supply oil to metering unit (3).
Once pump (5) has been shut off, the check valve prevents the loss of accumulator stored pressure
oil back through pump (5). Check valve (16) is installed in priority valve (17). It prevents steering
metering unit signal oil from flowing back into the primary hydraulic system through the priority
valve. Check valve (18) is installed in the base of accumulator (9) in the supply line from the
priority valve. It prevents supplemental steering pressure oil from flowing back into the primary
hydraulic system through the priority valve.

When turning the steering wheel, steering metering unit (3) sends pressure oil [from pump (5) or
accumulator (9)] to the respective head and rod ends of steering cylinders (1).

Automatic Actuation
With the Automatic/Manual switch in the automatic position, the pressure sensing switch in priority
valve senses when hydraulic pressure falls below 700 ± 103 kPa (100 ± 15 psi). The pressure switch
electrically tells the supplemental steering electronic control module that there is a loss of pressure.
The control then turns ON electric motor (4). Motor (4) drives hydraulic pump (5) to charge the
steering system with pressure oil. The supplemental steering system is then ready for a steering
demand.

Once the supplemental steering system has been activated, it should


remain ON no more than two minutes. This should be sufficient time to
safely steer the machine to a stop. When the machine is stopped, turn
the key start switch to the OFF position to turn OFF supplemental
steering. Prolonged use of the supplemental steering system will cause
electric motor (4) to overheat and cause damage to it's components.

The machine's batteries must have a normal charge and the


supplemental steering electrical system must be okay. A low charge
condition, or any defect in the battery, battery cells, or electrical circuit
can cause loss of supplemental steering and could result in personal
injury and/or damage to the machine.

Introduction
The hydraulic system provides a controlled flow of pressurized oil to the steering and implement
circuits. In a load sensing hydraulic system, the pump works only as hard as necessary to meet
system demands. If there is no steering or implement demand, the pump conserves energy by
reducing flow to that needed for pump case drain (internal leakage) and pressure to a minimum
standby level of approximately 2950 ± 900 kPa (430 ± 130 psi). This means the pump works more
efficiently and produces less heat in the hydraulic system.

Systems Operation
When the machine is started, hydraulic oil is pulled from tank (1) by pump (2). With no implement
or steering demand, the pump is at LOW PRESSURE STANDBY. Only enough oil to makeup for

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 48

internal leakage is pumped. Pump compensator (36) limits oil pressure to 2950 kPa (430 psi).
Hydraulic pump (2) sends pressure oil to priority valve (3). The priority valve directs pressure oil to
both the steering and implement circuits.

Pressure oil at approximately 1900 kPa (275 psi) is sent from priority valve (3) to steering metering
pump (6). This oil fills the steering metering pump, keeping it ready for a steering demand. Oil also
passes through the center of the priority valve stem and through the orifice in the stem at the spring
chamber. The oil pressure in the spring chamber is 850 kPa (125 psi). Oil flows out an orifice fitting
to line (37). Oil flows through line (37) at 350 kPa (50 psi) and through an orifice in the steering
metering pump then back to tank. A tee in line (37) directs oil to the resolver valve (38) and then the
hydraulic pump signal port. Oil in line (37) always flows from the priority valve to the steering
metering pump. This causes the priority valve stem to meter oil continuously and reduces stem
travel during steering which results in faster steering response.

Pressure oil at LOW PRESSURE STANDBY is sent from priority valve (3) to combination valve
(4). In combination valve (4) pressure oil splits, going to each of the valve banks (8) and (9).
Pressure oil is at each implement valve, ready for an implement demand.

Steering Demand

When the steering wheel is turned the priority valve stem shifts to provide flow. As previously
stated under Systems Operations, the pump signal originates at the priority valve by way of resolver
(38) to the steering metering pump by way of line (37). At the steering metering pump, the signal
line is connected to the cylinder port (left or right) under pressure. The pressure in line (37) is
limited to the steering cylinder port pressure. The signal pressure is felt at resolver (38), where it is
compared to any implement pressure. The greater signal pressure is sent to pump compensator (36).
Pump (2) upstrokes to a pressure of 2100 kPa (305 psi) greater than signal pressure. The higher
pressure oil is sent to priority valve (3).

Implement Demand

Single Implement

When a lever for an implement is moved, a signal pressure is created by the resistance of the
implement to move its load. This signal pressure is sent through the valve bank signal network to
resolver (42) in combination valve (4). Signal pressure shifts resolver (42), sending signal pressure
to resolver (38) where it is compared to any steering signal pressure. The greater signal pressure is
sent to pump compensator (36). Pump (2) upstrokes to a pressure approximately 2100 kPa (305 psi)
greater than the signal pressure.

The higher pressure oil is sent through priority valve (3), combination valve (4) and into both valve
banks (8) and (9). Pressure oil flows through the implement valve that was moved to the implement.

Multiple Implements

When several implements are used at the same time, the pump will upstroke to meet the highest
pressure demand but will also try to meet the flow requirement of all implements used. The highest
signal pressure is derived by the resolver network in the valve bank. If implements are used in each
valve bank, the highest resolved signal from each is sent to resolver (42) in combination valve (4).
The greater implement signal pressure shifts resolver (42), sending signal pressure to resolver (38)
where it is compared to any steering signal pressure. As per previous discussion, pump (2) upstrokes
to meet pressure and flow demands.

Hydraulic System And Steering Components

(1) Hydraulic oil tank. (32) Filter element. (33) Strainer. (34) Filter element. (35) Manifold.
Hydraulic tank (1) is located directly behind the operator's cab. Internal leakage from both valve
banks joins pump case drain oil. This oil is routed through filter element (32). Return oil from both
valve banks and steering metering pump (6) is routed through filter element (34). Oil from both
filters flows through manifold (35) and strainer (33) into hydraulic tank (1). If either filter element
becomes full of debris, oil can not pass through the element. The restriction to flow causes a
pressure increase which opens the bypass valve. Each filter element has a bypass valve. A pressure
of approximately 138 kPa (20 psi) will cause the bypass valve to open. Oil is now allowed directly
into tank (1). When oil bypasses the filter element, debris in the oil will cause damage to other
system components. Correct maintenance must be used to make sure each filter element does not
stop the flow of clean oil to the hydraulic system.

(2) Hydraulic Pump. (36) Compensator Valve.


Hydraulic pump (2) is an axial piston type pump that has variable flow and pressure output
depending on control oil from compensator valve (36). Valve (36) is mounted to the side of the
pump. The compensator valve receives the highest resolved signal from implement valve banks (8)
and (9) and steering metering pump (6). Through connecting passages between the compensator
valve and pump, the compensator valve controls pump output flow up to a maximum of 162
liter/min (42 U.S. gpm) for the 120G and 215 liter/min (56 U.S. gpm) for the 12G, 130G and 140G.
Maximum pressure for both pumps is 24 000 kPa (3500 psi).

(3) Priority Valve (Hidden). (37) Signal line.


Priority valve (3) is mounted underneath the cab floor, directly to the left of hydraulic pump (2).
Pressure oil from the pump is routed to valve (3). Valve (3) then regulates the flow of oil to the
implement and steering circuits. When there is a steering demand, valve (3) gives the steering circuit
preference. The signal pressure from the priority valve is routed through line (37) to the steering
metering pump which limits this pressure to steering cylinder port pressure. Also, it is routed to
signal resolver (38) in the combination valve. This allows sufficient pump oil into the steering
circuit to meet its demand. Priority valve (3) also contains a relief valve that holds maximum
steering pressure to 17 000 kPa (2500 psi).

(4) Combination valve. (38) Resolver. (42) Resolver (hidden).


Combination valve (4) is mounted underneath the cab floor toward the front from priority valve (3).
Valve (4) acts as a manifold. Through internal passages, oil is routed to and from the implement
valve banks. Valve (4) contains a pair of resolvers (38) and (42). The resolvers determine the highest
signal pressure from either of the valve banks and the steering metering pump. The highest resolved
signal pressure is then routed to pump compensator (36). Valve (4) also contains the main relief
valve. If pump compensator (36) fails, the main relief valve will limit maximum system pressure to
approximately 27 000 kPa (3900 psi).

(5) Steering accumulator. (39) Block.


Steering accumulator (5) is mounted along the inside edge of the cab by the left hand steps. It holds
a 6900 kPa (1000 psi) nitrogen precharge. The accumulators main purpose is to prevent hard spots

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 6 of 48

when steering the machine. This could occur if an implement is used while turning. Block (39) at the
base of accumulator (5) has check valve (7) mounted to it. This prevents the oil pressure stored in
the accumulator from bleeding back through the priority valve and pump. The accumulator will
bleed down through steering metering pump (6) once the machine has been shut off.

(6) Steering metering pump.


Steering metering pump (6) is mounted in the operator's console directly beneath the EMS panel.
Pressure oil from priority valve (3) is blocked internally in the pump until a turn is made. Steering
metering pump (6) delivers (pumps) a fixed amount oil to the steer cylinders for each revolution of
the steering wheel. The speed of the turn is determined by how fast the steering wheel is turned.
Turn the steering wheel slow and the wheels change direction slowly, turn it fast and the wheels
change direction quicker.

(8) Left valve bank. (40) Cover. (41) Manifold.

(9) Right valve bank. (40) Cover. (41) Manifold.


Implement control valves are stacked together between cover (40) and manifold (41). Valve banks
are located at the front bottom of the cab on each side of the operator's console. The individual
control valves regulate the operation of each implement.

Hydraulic Pump
(9) Pump. (14) Compensator valve. (17) Signal line. (18) Pump output line.
Pump (9) for the hydraulic system is below the cab, toward the left side, in front of the engine. It is
an automatically controlled, piston-type pump that senses both pressure and flow needs through
compensator valve (14).

When the engine is running, pump drive shaft (8) rotates barrel (5) with nine pistons (2). The ends of
the pistons are in the shape of a ball that fits into shoe plate (11). Shoe plate (11) slides on a thin
film of oil on swashplate (10) that does not turn. Swashplate (10) is pinned to yoke (1). Shoe plate
(11) is held in place by spacer (12). Yoke (1) has a bearing on each side that allows it to pivot in
pump housing. By pivoting, the swashplate changes its angle which results in a change of pump
displacement.

When pump drive shaft (8) turns barrel (5), with yoke (1) at some angle (maximum angle shown),
pistons (2) are moved in and out of the barrel as it follows the angle of the swashplate. As a piston
(2) is moved out of barrel (5), it pulls oil from the hydraulic tank, through the pump inlet and into

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 8 of 48

the piston cylinder. As the barrel continues to turn, the piston is moved into the barre. The piston
pushes the oil from the piston cylinder through pump outlet and on to the priority valve.

Pump (9) has two control pistons: a bias piston (3) and actuator piston (13). The bias piston is used
to upstroke the pump. The force of spring (4) and pump pressure acts on piston (3). Actuator piston
(13) is used to destroke the pump and has a larger area than the bias piston. The compensator valves
flow compensator spool (16) and/or pressure compensator spool (15) changes pump displacement by
regulating the pressure in actuator piston (13) which is supplied by pump discharge pressure. The
larger area of actuator piston (13) enables it to overpower bias piston (3) and spring (4) to destroke
the pump when compensator valve (14) applies pump pressure to it.

Compensator Valve

(Typical Example)
(14) Compensator valve. (17) Signal port.
Compensator valve (14) automatically keeps pump pressure and flow at a level needed to fulfill the
system load and flow needs. When none of the hydraulic implement and steering circuits are being
used, the pump is at low pressure standby, which is about 2950 kPa (430 psi). However, if one or
more circuits are being used, a resolver network compares the control valve work port pressures and
steering pressure. The highest resolved pressure felt goes through a signal line to pump compensator
valve inlet. Valve (14) will then maintain flow and pressure requirements. The actual system
pressure will usually be about 2100 kPa (305 psi) above the highest work port pressure requirement
unless flow demand is more than the pump can supply. This difference between work port need and
the higher supply pressure is called margin pressure.

The compensator valve also has a pressure limiting ability that prevents pump and system overloads.
When work port pressure goes over a set pump pressure of 24 000 kPa (3500 psi), the pressure
limiter part of the compensator will extend over (override) the load sensing part of the compensator
and lower the pump output. This action starts at approximately 690 kPa (100 psi) below the
maximum pressure setting. This protects the hydraulic system from damaging high pressures.

Low Pressure Standby


With the vehicle running, low pressure standby is the pump mode when implements are in hold and
steering is not being used. There are no flow or pressure demands on the pump. Therefore, there is
no signal pressure in line (6).

Before the engine is started, bias spring (15) holds swashplate (5) at maximum angle. As the pump
begins to turn, making oil flow, pressure builds in the system because of the closed-center
implement valves. This pressure in passage (11) is felt at the bottoms of pressure compensator
(pressure limiter) spool (9) and flow compensator (margin) spool (8). As this pressure increases, it
pushes the spool (8) up against spring (1). When system pressure becomes greater than 2100 kPa

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 9 of 48

(305 psi) spool (8) will have moved up far enough to open up a passage for pressure oil to the back
of actuator piston (4). This causes the actuator piston to move to the right which compresses bias
spring (15) and moves the swashplate toward minimum angle. Piston (4) continues to move to the
right until it uncovers the cross-drilled passage of the actuator piston rod, allowing oil to drain to
case.

At this point, pump output flow is not enough to make up for normal system leakage; to make up the
additional leakage through the cross-drilled hole; and to further increase oil pressure behind piston
(4) to continue moving it to the right. This limits the maximum travel of the piston to the right. The
piston will now move slightly to the left until only part of the cross-drilled hole is open to case. At
this point, the pump is producing enough flow to make up system leakage and leakage to the pump
case through the cross-drilled hole while maintaining system pressure at 2950 kPa (430 psi).

The pump is at low pressure standby. This pressure is different than margin pressure because of
system leakage and the cross-drilled hole in the actuator piston rod. Flow compensator (margin)
spool (8), instead of metering oil, must remain open and move up higher against spring (1) to
provide enough flow to the back side of piston (4) to make up the leakage through the cross-drilled
hole. This flow must be enough to maintain the pressure required at the back of the piston to
overcome bias spring (15) and the pressure behind bias piston (16). System pressure must be
approximately 800 kPa (125 psi) higher than margin pressure to shift the spool up this additional
amount against spring (1). Oil pressure behind the actuator piston is less than system pressure
because of the pressure drop caused by oil flowing past the orifice created by the flow compensator
(margin) spool.

NOTE: Low pressure standby is not adjusted and will vary from machine to machine. It will also
vary in the same pump as systm or pump leakage increases. As leakage increases, the pump will
upstroke slightly to compensate for the leakage, and the actuator piston will cover up more of the
cross-drilled hole. As this happens, low pressure standby will drop toward margin pressure. When

leakage gets to the point at which the piston covers the cross-drilled hole completely, because of the
increased swashplate angle required, low pressure standby will equal margin pressure.

In any discussion of pump operation, it is important to remember that for a given system pressure
and flow demand (except maximum flow position where pump output flow is a function of engine
speed) the pump will maintain a constant flow up to cutoff pressure (see High Pressure Stall). A
need for more hydraulic horsepower because of increased circuit load pressure is met by increased
engine torque (not a change in pump swashplate angle or engine speed).

Upstroking is when the pump is increasing displacement (output). This occurs when the signal
pressure increases due to an increased output demand (implement or steering) at low pump output.
The highest resolved signal pressure goes through line (6) and fills cavity (7). Now the signal
pressure, plus the force of spring (1), move spool (8) down. This blocks the flow of supply oil to
actuator piston (4). With flow compensator spool (8) moved downward, oil under the actuator piston
can drain past flow compensator spool (8), the pressure compensator spring cavity and out through
passage (12) to case drain (14). Now supply oil flows through passage (13) to bias piston (16) and
combines with the force of bias spring (15) to move swashplate toward maximum angle or
UPSTROKE.

This increases pump output. The pump output pressure increases until the pressure in passage (11)
moves spool (8) up to the metering position. Initially, in the metering position (Figure 1), pump
pressure is greater than the combined force of spring (1) and the signal pressure in cavity (7). Spool
(8) moves up. Pressure is now sent to actuator piston (4). Since the area of actuator piston (4) is
larger than the area of bias piston (16), the force moving swashplate (5) toward minimum angle
(actuator piston) is greater than the force moving swashplate (5) toward maximum angle (bias piston

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022

plus bias spring). Swashplate (5) angle decreases. Pump output decreases. When pump pressure
reduces enough the combined signal pressure and spring force in cavity (7) move spool (8) down
(Figure 2). The oil pressure behind actuator piston (4) goes back to case drain per previous
discussion.

Metering Position
Bias piston (16) and spring (15) force swashplate (5) angle to increase. This light up and down spool
movement is called metering. Metering keeps the force on both ends of spool (8) equal. Spring (1) is
equal to 2100 kPa (305 psi). Therefore, pump pressure is 2100 kPa (305 psi) greater than signal
pressure. The difference is called margin pressure.

Destroking

pump flow causes pump discharge pressure to rise above pump signal pressure. When the signal
pressure plus the force of spring (1) is less than the pump pressure in passage (11), spool (8) is
pushed up. Oil behind actuator piston (4) can not go through passage (12) to case drain (14). Pump
oil now flows through passage (11), past spool (8), and through passage (10) to piston (4). Pump
pressure behind piston (4) is now greater than the combined force of bias piston (16) and spring
(15). Swashplate (5) angle decreases. This decreases pump output. System pressure decreases. As
system pressure approaches 2100 kPa (305 psi) margin pressure (if there is a system requirement) or
2950 kPa (430 psi) low pressure standby (if all control valves are in hold), flow compensator spool
(8) moves down to the metering position. Swashplate (5) will maintain a slight angle that is
sufficient to make up for system leakage and provide the lower required pressure.

When the hydraulic system stalls under load or when the cylinders reach the end of the stroke, the
system pressure increases. The signal pressure in line (6) and cavity (7) becomes equal to the pump
output pressure. Spring (1) keeps spool (8) shifted down. When system pressure reaches 24 000 kPa
(3500 psi) in passage (11), pressure compensator spool (9) compresses spring (2) and moves
upward. Supply oil flows through passage (10) to actuator piston (4). Pressure felt on the actuator
piston will destroke the pump. Pump output (flow) decreases while system pressure is limited to 24
000 kPa (3500 psi) [leakage flow and maximum pressure].

If the control lever is moved to HOLD during high pressure stall, the signal pressure in cavity (7)
flows through passage (6) to the control valve where it returns to tank. System pressure begins to
bleed down. Spring (2) moves pressure compensator spool (9) down and the system pressure in
passage (11) acts against the force of spring (1) to move flow compensator spool (8) up. Supply oil
flows past flow compensator spool (8) and pressure compensator spool (9), through passage (10) to
actuator piston (4).

Actuator piston (4) destrokes swashplate (5) until system pressure decreases. As system pressure
approaches 2950 kPa (430 psi) [low pressure standby], flow compensator spool (8) moves down to
the metering position. Swashplate (5) will maintain a slight angle that is sufficient to make up for
system leakage and provide the lower required pressure.

Implement control valves (7) are closed-centered. Therefore, when all valve stems are in the HOLD
position, pump flow through common inlet is blocked from going to work ports "A" or "B" or tank
[through outlet (4)].

Valves (7) are stacked together between inlet manifold (6) and end cover (2). Manifold (6) provides
common pump oil supply at inlet (5), common drain to tank through outlet (4) and a common valve
bank case drain through outlet (3).

Each implement control valve (7) has a resolver valve as part of a pressure signal network. This
network sends the highest load pressure to the pump compensator through signal outlet (1). Outlet
(1) is in manifold (6) for the right bank and in cover (2) for the left. The signal network works right
to left in each valve bank.

The basic right valve bank for each machine is made up of four implement valves (7). The basic left
valve bank on the 120G, 130G and 140G has two valves (7): circle drive and blade lift, whereas the
12G has the four valves. Each valve bank has the adaptability to hold six valves.

Implement Levers (Left Valve Bank) (Forward For Port "B" Output)
As the control lever for the implement is pushed forward, stem (13) is moved right allowing Port
"B" output. As passage (16) in stem (13) moves into chamber (17), a load signal is sent to the pump
to increase output. Further movement of stem (13) allows pump oil to flow to port "B". Slot (15)
dampens the initial rise in pressure. At the same time that port "B" opens to pump oil, port "A"
opens to drain through passage (8).

Load pressure increases as the implement cylinder moves against its load. This pressure goes
through stem passages (16), (18) and (20), chamber (19) and passage (21). At this point, the load
pressure performs two functions.

The load pressure functions as a load signal to the pump. Pressure is allowed through passage (23) in
resolver valve (22) (see the section Resolver Signal Network). The resolver valve sends the highest
system pressure to the pump to signal the highest system load (see the section; Hydraulic Pump).

Load pressure through passage (24) also functions as part of a pressure and flow control system.
Load pressure enters chamber (25) and the cavity of spring (14). The load pressure plus the force of
spring (14) moves valve (12) to the left. This increases pump oil flow through metering holes (27),
flow control holes (28) and metering area (26) to the implement load at Port "B". Pump oil pressure
continues to increase due to the load signal to the pump until the pump pressure on the left side of
valve (12) becomes greater than the combined load pressure and spring (14) force on the right side.
As a result, valve (12) moves to the right.

The forces of signal oil plus spring (14) acting against the force of oil pressure through metering
holes (27) will maintain the flow established by stem metering area (26), but reduces pump pressure
on the pump side of metering area (26) to 700 kPa (100 psi) above load pressure. If valve (12) was
not part of the implement valve, operator lever efforts would be increased due to a large pressure
drop (difference) across directional stem (13).

NOTE: In the case of other implement circuits operating with higher pump pressure demand, valve
(12) moves to the right reducing metering holes (27). However, with increased pump pressure, the
flow rate will be maintained as established by metering area (26).

Valve (12) also functions to limit the maximum flow out of the implement valve. This provides a
match between the implement valve and the size of the hydraulic cylinder. It is important when
replacing an implement valve to use the same part number. This retains the valve/cylinder match.

Implement Levers (Left Valve Bank) (Back For Port "A" Output)
As the control lever for the implement is pulled back, stem (13) is moved left allowing port "A"
output. As passage (29) in stem (13) moves to chamber (30) for work port "A", a load signal is sent
to the pump to increase output. Further movement of stem (13) allows pump oil flow to work port
"A". Slot (31) dampens the initial rise in pressure. At the same time that port "A" opens to pump oil,
port "B" opens to drain through passage (8).

Load pressure increases as the implement begins to move against its load. This pressure goes
through stem passages (29), (18) and (20), chamber (19) and passage (21). At this point, the load
pressure performs two functions.

The load pressure functions as a load signal to the pump. Pressure is allowed through passage (23) in
resolver valve (22) (see the section Resolver Signal Network). The resolver valve sends the highest
system pressure to the pump to signal the highest system load (see the section; Hydraulic Pump).

Load pressure through passage (24) also functions as part of a pressure and flow control system.
Load pressure enters chamber (25) and the cavity of spring (14). The load pressure plus the force of
spring (14) moves valve (12) to the left. This increases pump oil flow through metering holes (27),
flow control holes (28) and metering area (32) to the implement load at Port "A". Pump oil pressure
increases due to the load signal to the pump until the pump pressure on the left side of valve (12)
becomes greater than the combined load pressure and spring (14) force on the right side. As a result,
valve (12) moves to the right.

The forces of signal oil plus spring (14) acting against the force of oil pressure through metering
holes (27) will maintain the flow established by stem metering area (32), but reduces pump pressure
on the pump side of metering area (32) to 700 kPa (100 psi) above load pressure. If valve (12) was
not part of the implement valve, operator lever efforts would be increased due to a large pressure
drop (difference) across directional stem (13).

NOTE: In the case of other circuits operating with higher pump pressure demand, valve (12) moves
to the right reducing metering holes (27). However, with increased pump pressure, the flow rate will
be maintained as established by metering area (32).

Valve (12) also functions to limit the maximum flow out of the implement valve. This provides a
match between the implement valve and the size of the hydraulic cylinder. It is important when
replacing an implement valve to use the same part number. This retains the valve/cylinder match.

As the control lever for the implement is moved to the HOLD (center) position, stem (13) moves to
a position where work ports "A" and "B" are blocked. The implement will stop at the last position
before stem movement to the HOLD position.

In the HOLD position, oil pressure from the chamber of spring (14), chamber (25), passages (24),
(23), (21), (20) and (18) relieves to tank through chamber (19) into passage (8). The only force then
acting against the right end of compensator valve (12) is that of spring (14).

A low pressure standby of 2960 kPa (430 psi), acts through metering holes (27), compresses spring
(14) to keep valve (12) positioned all the way to the right. Metering holes (27) are not closed off
completely, so low pressure standby is present up to directional stem (13).

If another implement is operated or if the pump is at LOW PRESSURE STANDBY, oil passes
through metering holes (27) and is blocked at directional stem (13). Oil pressure increases and
moves spool (12) against spring (14) to maintain a pressure at directional stem (13) equal to spring
(14) of 700 kPa (100 psi). Metering holes (27) are never completely closed off due to oil passing
through orifice (34) to tank resulting in improved implement response time.

Each implement valve (1) has a resolver valve (2). When the stem in valve (1) is shifted, it allows
the pressure at the valves respective work port to go through internal passages to valve (2). Pressure
oil then enters passage (6) in valve (2) and flows to resolver ball (5). The highest pressure oil from
the other implement valves enters passage (3) and goes to resolver ball (5). The highest (resolved)
signal pressure will cause ball (5) to block the oil flow of the lower pressure, causing the highest
pressure to flow through passage (4) the next resolver.

The signal network works right to left through each valve bank (7) and (8). The highest (resolved)
signal pressure from each valve bank then goes to resolver (9) in combination valve (10). Here, the
two valve bank signal pressures are compared and the highest (resolved) signal is sent to resolver
(11). That signal pressure is compared to any signal pressure from the steering metering unit.
Finally, the highest (resolved) signal (implement or steering) is sent through line (12) to the pump
compensator.

Priority Valve

(outlet signal). (8) Port (drain). (9) Passage. (10) Port (oil supply). (11) Relief valve. (12) Setscrew.
The priority valve is mounted along the inside of the bottom left edge of the operator's station. It
functions to direct pressure oil to the steering and implement circuits. The valve gives the steering
circuit flow priority, providing oil to meet a steering demand first.

Port (10) at the bottom of the valve is the inlet from the pump. Port (2) supplies the steering circuit
through the steering metering pump. Port (3) supplies oil to the implement circuits. Spool (1) acts to
provide a 1030 kPa (150 psi) margin pressure above cylinder pressure to the steering metering pump
during steering. It provides a 1900 kPa (275 psi) pressure to the steering metering pump during no
steer.

No Steering Demand
With no pressure in the system, spring (4) holds spool (1) to the left. Spool (1) then blocks port (3)
to the implement circuits and opens port (2) to the steering system.

As the engine is started and system pressure increases, oil enters through port (10) and goes out port
(2) to the steering metering pump. With no steering, pressure increases through passage (9) and a
dampening orifice to the left end of spool (1). Oil also flows through orifice (5) to the chamber of
spring (4). Pressure in the chamber increases due to restricted flow through orifice (6) at port (7). Oil
flows from port (7) and through the steering metering pump to tank.

As pressure increases at port (2), pressure increases at the left end of spool (1). Also, flow through
orifices (5) and (6) results in pressure increasing to 870 kPa (125 psi) in the chamber of spring (4).

The force of spring (4) at 1030 kPa (150 psi) plus the pressure in the spring chamber of 850 kPa
(125 psi) combine for a force of 1900 kPa (275 psi) acting on the right end of spool (1).

Pressure in the passage to port (2) of the priority valve will increase until the force on the left end of
the spool is enough to overcome the forces on the right end. At this time, the spool is moved to the
right. The spool will go to a position which maintains 1900 kPa (275 psi) in the passage to the
steering circuit as long as the steering circuit is not being used.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 27 of 48

As mentioned above, port (7) is connected to the signal port of the steering metering pump which is
open to tank. An orifice in the steering metering pump circuit to tank causes enough restriction to
create around 240-345 kPa (35-50 psi) back pressure in the signal circuit to the pump compensator
(with no steering or implement use).

NOTE: Because of this back pressure, this pressure must be bled off at the pump compensator valve
before an accurate check of low pressure standby can be made.

With the pump at low pressure standby, pressure to the steering metering pump is 1900 kPa (275
psi). In this condition, the spool is shifted to a position where implement port (3) is open to port
(10). As a result, the pressure available at the implement control valves is the low pressure standby
of 2950 kPa (430 psi).

Steering Demand (No Implement Demand)


When steering the machine, flow from port (7) no longer goes through the steering metering pump
to tank, but is connected through the steering metering pump to steering cylinder load. As oil begins
to flow from port (2), cylinder load pressure felt through port (7) and port (2) decreases. As a result,
spring (4) forces spool (1) to the left. Flow increases through port (2) and cylinder load starts to
increase. As cylinder load increases, the signal oil flow decreases and pressure increases at port (7).
This signal oil pressure goes through the signal network to upstroke the pump.

Increased pump flow goes through port (2) to the steering metering pump and on to the cylinders.
Oil also flows through passage (9) to the left end of spool (1). This same oil also flows through
passage (9) and bleed orifice (5) to the right end of spool (1). Oil flows through orifice (6), out of
port (7) to the steering metering pump and on to the load cylinder.

As the pump upstrokes and increases flow through the steering metering pump to the steering
cylinder, pressure starts to increase at port (2). As in the no steer mode, pressure increases at the left
end of spool (1) and at the right end of spool (1). However, with flow not going to tank from orifice
(6), there is no pressure differential of 870 kPa (125 psi) between cylinder side and the spring
chamber side of orifice (6). The 1030 kPa (150 psi) force of spring (7) plus cylinder pressure acts on
the right end of spool (1). As pressure at port (2) and the left end of spool (1) becomes larger than
the combined cylinder load pressure and spring force of 1030 kPa (150 psi), spool (1) moves to the
right. As spool (1) approaches the point where flow is blocked, the force on the left end decreases
and the spool is moved to the left by the spring. The spool modulates at any given cylinder load
pressure to maintain a 1030 kPa (150 psi) pressure difference between the steering metering pump
and port (2).

NOTE: The priority valve gives the steering circuit flow priority over the implement circuits.
However, there should always be a supply of oil available to the implement circuits when steering.
The larger of the signal from the steering cylinder or the implement circuit signals the pump to
create an output pressure which is 2100 kPa (305 psi) greater than the largest signal. (Pump output
pressure equals the signal pressure plus margin pressure.) When only the steering circuit is being
used, the pressure at port (10) should be 2100 kPa (305 psi) greater than the steering cylinder signal.
With pressure at the left end of spool (1) approximately equal to 1030 kPa (150 psi) greater than any
given steering cylinder signal, spool (1) will move to the right. As spool (1) modulates to maintain a
pressure at port (2) of cylinder pressure plus 1030 kPa (150 psi), the 2100 kPa (305 psi) pressure
plus cylinder pressure makes sure oil is available for the implement circuits. One indication of low
margin pressure is the inability to activate an implement circuit when steering the vehicle. With a
low margin pressure there could be insufficient pressure on the left end of the priority valve spool to
overcome the signal plus the spring on the right side.

Relief Valve (Steering)


Relief valve (11) for the steering signal circuit is located in the priority valve. If steering circuit
pressure demand at the left end of the spool exceeds 17 200 kPa (2500 psi), oil in the chamber of
spring (4) at 16 345 kPa (2350 psi) forces valve (11) open. This allows pressure oil out port (8) to
drain. To adjust relief valve (11), turn setscrew (12) in to increase and out to decrease the pressure
setting.

NOTE: Pressure in the spring chamber remains approximately 870 kPa (125 psi) greater than
cylinder load pressures except when the cylinders are trying to turn the wheels against objects that
do not move. At that point, blocked signal flow through orifices (5) and (6) results in a spring
chamber pressure of 16 345 kPa (2350 psi) [17 200 kPa (2500 psi) (relief) minus the spring force of
1030 kPa (150 psi)].

valve banks joins with return oil from the priority valve [port (11)] and the steering metering unit
[port (3)]. This oil is routed through port (9) and on to the hydraulic tank.

The combination valve is also part of the signal network. Resolver (13) determines the highest signal
pressure from the two valve banks [ports (8) and (10)]. The highest resolved signal pressure
(implement) is sent to resolver (14), where it is compared to any signal pressure from the steering
metering unit [port (2)]. Then the highest resolved signal pressure (implement or steering) is routed
out port (12) to the pump compensator.

Combination Valve (View Toward Rear Of Machine)


Main relief valve (15) is also housed in the combination valve. Valve (15) protects the hydraulic
system if the hydraulic pump fails to destroke when the pressure limiter part of the pump
compensator is reached. Relief valve (15) pressure setting is 27 000 ± 350 kPa (3900 ± 51 psi).

There is a lock check valve, between the implement valve and the hydraulic cylinders, in each of the
implement circuits. The operation of each lock check valve is the same, but there are four types of
lock check valves.

Type 1 lock check valve does not have chokes in the inlet ports. It is used in the Circle Drive and
Wheel Lean circuits.

Type 2 lock check valve has chokes in the inlet ports. It is used in the Articulation, Blade Lift (right
side) and Centershift circuits.

Type 3 lock check valve has a relief valve and does not have chokes in the inlet ports. It is used in
the Blade Tip and Sideshift circuits.

Type 4 lock check valve has a relief valve and has chokes in the inlet ports. It is used in the Blade
Lift (left side), Ripper and Scarifier circuits.

Operation

Lock Check Valve (With Chokes)


(1) Line to implement valve. (2) Piston. (3) Line to implement valve. (4) Choke. (5) Choke. (6) Ball. (7) Ball. (8) Line to
cylinder. (9) Seat. (10) Line to cylinder. (11) Seat.
With the implement valve in the HOLD position, oil in lines (8) and (10) is blocked. The rod in the
cylinder can not move in or out. Spring force on balls (6) and (7) plus the trapped oil in lines (8) and
(10) keep the balls against seats (9) and (11). The oil in lines (1) and (3) is at tank pressure.

Moving the control lever's position, allows pressure oil to flow from the implement valve through
line (3) (for this example). Pressure oil holds choke (5) away from the orifice in the passage,
allowing oil flow into the chamber in seat (9). Pressure oil in seat (9) moves piston (2) to the right
against ball (6) moving ball (6) to the right off seat (11) and compressing the spring. Supply oil in
chamber of seat (9) pushes ball (7) to the left off seat (9) and compressing the spring allowing
supply oil to go through line (10) into the cylinder. Oil pressure in the cylinder moves the rod,
pushing oil out the opposite end of the cylinder. Return oil flows through line (8), past ball (6) and

moves choke (4) over the orifice in the passage to line (1). The restriction to oil flow through choke
(4) prevents gravity from moving the cylinder rod faster than the pressure oil can push it.

Lock Check/Relief Valve Operation

Lock Check/Relief Valve (With Chokes)


(12) Relief valve. (13) Valve. (14) Spring. (15) Passage. (16) Shims.
The operation of the lock check/relief valve is the same as the other lock check valves except for
relief valve (12) that is added in the passage to the rod end of the cylinder. If a force pulls on the
cylinder rod, a pressure increase builds in the rod end of the cylinder. When the pressure increase is
great enough, relief valve (12) opens. Valve (13) is forced off its seat, compressing spring (14). Oil
is allowed through passage (15) back to tank. This allows the rod to move out of the cylinder. The
pressure setting for relief valve (12) is 13 750 ± 700 kPa (2000 ± 100 psi) for the scarifier circuit and
27 600 ± 700 kPa (4000 ± 100 psi) for the blade tip, sideshift, ripper and blade lift (left cylinder)
circuits. Use shims (16) to adjust the pressure setting.

Operation
Pump oil to the steering circuit comes from the priority valve through line (2). Oil pressure in line
(2) is approximately 1900 kPa (275 psi) when the steering circuit is not being used and 1030 kPa
(150 psi) plus cylinder load pressure during steering. Oil flows through check valves (6) and (7) into
port (P) of steering metering pump (10). Signal pressure from the priority valve is connected to port
(S) of metering pump (10). Oil then passes through an orifice in the steering

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 38 of 48

metering pump and on to tank. When there is no steering demand, the pressure in the signal line is
approximately 345 kPa (50 psi) or less. Oil in the signal line is supplied at the priority valve from
the steering supply port and past a slightly shifted stem that allows oil to be metered into the signal
passage through the center of the stem. The oil then flows into the priority valve spring chamber and
into the signal line to port (S) of steering metering pump (10).

When a steering demand is made (steering wheel is turned), pressure and flow from the priority
valve is connected to steering cylinders through the valving and metering action of the steering
metering pump. The load sensing line to port (S) on the steering metering pump is internally
connected to the pressurized cylinder port. This action limits the signal pressure originating from the
priority valve to actual steering cylinder pressure. The priority valve maintains a 1030 kPa (150 psi)
margin pressure (pressure above steering cylinder pressure) at steering supply port (P). Signal
pressure now upstrokes the pump to meet the highest pressure and flow demands.

Metered pump oil flows through the priority valve and line (2). Oil passes through check valve (6)
and fills accumulator (3) to a pressure matching that of the steering demand. Pump oil continues
through line (4), check valve (7) and into steering metering pump (10).

For a right turn, steering metering pump (10) pumps oil through line (8) into common passage (19)
in crossover relief valve (12). Oil flows through line (9) to the head end of left steer cylinder (17)
forcing the cylinder rod out. Oil also flows through line (14) to the rod end of right steer cylinder
(15) forcing the cylinder rod in. Steering cylinders (15) and (17) pivot the wheels, turning the
machine right.

Drain oil is forced out the opposite end of the steer cylinders. Oil flows through lines (13) and (16),
where it joins in passage (18) of crossover relief valve (12). Line (11) routes the drain oil back into
left turn port (L) of steering metering pump (10). Left turn port (L) is connected to tank port (T).
Drain oil flows through pump (10) into line (5), where it is routed to the combination valve and back
to tank.

For a left turn, pump oil flows through line (11), passage (18) and lines (13) and (16), forcing the
steer cylinders in the opposite direction of the right turn. Drain oil flows through lines (9) and (14),
passage (19), line (8) into right turn port (R). Right turn port (R) is now connected to tank port (T),
allowing drain oil through pump (10), line (5) into the combination valve and back to tank.

Steering Accumulator

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 39 of 48

Steering Accumulator
The steering accumulator is mounted along the inside edge of the bottom left side of the operator's
station. The accumulator purpose is to store oil under pressure for use in the steering circuit. The
bladder inside the accumulator has a 6900 kPa (1000 psi) nitrogen precharge. With each greater
steering pressure demand, oil at that greater pressure is stored. Accumulator pressure will reach a
maximum of 17 200 kPa (2500 psi) which is the maximum steering pressure available to the steering
circuit.

The oil under pressure in the accumulator keeps the steering metering pump full and ready for a
quick steering response. It also prevents hard spots in steering when an implement is used by
providing a steady flow of supply oil to the steering metering pump until the hydraulic pump
upstrokes to meet the new pressure and flow demands.

There is a check valve in the block at the base of the accumulator. It prevents stored oil from
bleeding down through the priority valve and hydraulic pump when pump pressure is less than the
stored accumulator pressure. However, the accumulator will bleed down through the steering
metering pump when it is in the NEUTRAL (non-steer) position. With the engine off, accumulator

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 40 of 48

bleed down takes seven to eight minutes. To bleed down the accumulator quickly, turn the steering
wheel. Stored oil is then used up in the steering circuit.

Metering section.
NOTE: Pump shown without control column or shaft.

The steering metering pump is located in the operator's console group, right underneath the EMS
panel. It is made up of two sections: control section (A) and metering section (B). The two sections
are connected inside the unit both hydraulically and mechanically.

Pump oil from the priority valve goes through inlet (6) into control section (A). When the steering
wheel is turned, the control section sends oil to metering section (B). Metered oil from section (B) is
then directed by control section (A) to either left turn port (3) or right turn port (5). This oil is sent to
the steering cylinders to turn the machine.

Metering section (B) is a small hydraulic pump. It produces a specific amount (metered) of oil flow.
This metered oil is then directed by control section (A) either to left or right turn port. As the
steering wheel is turned faster, there is an increase in the flow of oil. More oil is sent to the steering
cylinders, which allows them to move farther and faster. Inlet port (6) has a check valve installed in
it. The check valve prevents steering wheel kickback caused by high pressure spikes in the steering
circuit.

Oil Flow

Control section (A) of the steering metering pump is a closed center type. When the steering wheel
is in the NEUTRAL (non-steering) position, there is no alignment between the holes in sleeve (4)
and the passages in spool (1). In this position, a small amount of pump oil flows from the priority
valve to signal port (18) through an internal orifice and then to tank. This oil flow to tank allows the
spool in the priority valve to shift and maintain oil pressure to the steering metering pump at 1900
kPa (275 psi) in the non-steer position. This keeps the steering metering pump full and ready for a
quick response to steering demands.

Right Turn

Passage. (11) Drive. (12) Pin (13) Centering springs. (A) Control section. (B) Metering section.
When the steering wheel is turned clockwise to make a right turn, spool (1), pin (12) and drive (11)
start to turn. Sleeve (4) did not start to turn at the same time because the diameter of the holes for pin
(12) in sleeve because the diameter of the holes for pin (12) in sleeve (4) is slightly larger than the
diameter of pin (12). This allows spool (1) to turn inside of sleeve (4) enough to put holes in sleeve
(4) in line with grooves in spool (1). Rotation from NEUTRAL position of spool (1) and sleeve (4)
provide an oil path between right turn port (5) and the signal port.

Pump oil from inlet (6) goes through holes in sleeve (4) into grooves in spool (1). The oil in the
grooves goes out through other holes in sleeve (4) and into passage (10). Oil flows through passage
(10) into metering section (13) where it is directed into a space between stator (8) and rotor (9).

Rotor (9) is splined to drive (11). As drive (11) turns, rotor (9) turns and pumps oil out passage (7).
The metered oil flows through more holes in sleeve (4), into other grooves in spool (1) and out
through sleeve (4) again into right turn port (5). Oil flows to the steering cylinders.

When the steering wheel is no longer turned, spool (1), pin (12), drive (11) and rotor (9) stop
turning. Centering springs (13) that were compressed when spool (1) was moving, now bring spool
(1) and sleeve (4) back to a NEUTRAL position. Holes in sleeve (4) no longer line up with grooves
in spool (1). Oil flow from inlet (6) stops. Metered oil to port (5) stops. Oil to the steering cylinders
stops which causes the wheels to stay in the position they were in when the steering effort stopped.

When the steering wheel is turned counterclockwise for a left hand turn, the same components move
that did for a right hand turn, only in the opposite direction. Oil still comes in inlet (6). Spool (1) and
sleeve (4) are turned in the opposite direction, allowing a different set of holes and grooves to line
up. Left turn port (3) is now open to the signal port.

Oil flows through spool (1) and sleeve (4) into passage (7) and metering section (B). Metered oil
flows out through passage (10), back through spool (1) and sleeve (4), and out left turn port (3).
From left turn port (3) oil goes to the steering cylinders.

The steering metering pump has a load sensing (signal) port in addition to the four ports already
described. The load sensing port connects internally by the rotation of spool (1) and sleeve (4) to
orificed outlet port (2) in the NEUTRAL position; to right turn port (5) during a right turn; and left
turn port (3) during a left turn.

When the signal port is connected to a turn port, the signal port feels the resistance pressure to
turning. This resistance creates a specific signal pressure. This signal pressure originates from the
priority valve. Signal pressure plus margin pressure provides oil flow to the steering metering pump
to meet the steering demand. The signal pressure is also communicated to the combination valve,
where it is compared to any other signal pressure. The highest signal pressure is then sent to the
pump compensator to upstroke the pump to meet the greater oil demand.

Crossover Relief Valve

(1) Cross passage for left turn. (2) Cross passage for right turn. (3) Relief valve. (4) Relief valve.
The crossover relief valve is used to prevent damage from high pressure oil in the steering cylinder
circuit that occurs when an outside force on a front wheel suddenly moves a steering cylinder rod
farther in or out of a steering cylinder than necessary.

If a front wheel would go against a large object that can not move, the pressure of the oil increases
in one end of each steering cylinder and in the oil lines connected between those ends. This oil
pressure increase is also felt in passage (1) or (2). If the oil pressure increases to approximately 22
100 kPa (3200 psi), valve (3) or (4) will open and let oil go the ends and rod ends of the steering
cylinders. This allows the position of the front wheels to change.

The purpose of the blade cushion arrangement is to soften or dampen shocks (pressure spikes) to the
blade lift hydraulic circuit when the blade contacts objects that will not move. The cushion
arrangement is activated by a switch on the right side of the EMS panel in the operator's console.
Accumulators (1) have a nitrogen precharge of 2050 kPa (300 psi) that provides the cushion. At the
base of each accumulator is manifold (11). Manifolds (11) contain the passage for hydraulic oil to
enter and exit accumulator (1). Solenoids (6) are mounted to manifolds (11) and regulate the flow of
oil to the accumulators.

Switch "OFF" Position (Blade Cushion Not Activated)


With the switch in the OFF position, solenoids (6) are deenergized. Pressure oil from lines (9) can
not pass through the cartridge assemblies to enter the accumulators. The cartridge assemblies
contain one-way check valves that allow oil into the cylinder head but prevent it from reentering
(flowing back into) the accumulator.

Switch "ON" Position (Blade Cushion Activated)

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 48 of 48

With the switch in the ON position, solenoids (6) are energized. The cartridge assemblies are pulled
back out of manifolds (11). There is now an open passage from the hydraulic circuit to accumulators
(1).

When a shock occurs, pressure oil flows through lines (7) tees (8), lines (9) through manifolds (11)
into accumulators (1). The nitrogen precharge in the accumulator cushions the force of the pressure
oil to the hydraulic circuit. Once the shock has passed, pressure oil from the accumulators reenters
the hydraulic circuit. Oil flows back into the head end of cylinders (2) and (5), positioning the blade
to where it was before the shock.

The cushion arrangement for the blade is optional on the 12G, 120G, 130G, and 140G.

Introduction

Sudden movement of the machine or release of oil under pressure can


cause injury to persons on or near the machine. To prevent injury, do
the procedure that follows before testing and adjusting the
supplemental steering electrical and hydraulic system.

1. Move the machine to a smooth horizontal location. Move away from working machines and
personnel. Lower all implements to the ground.

2. Move the transmission control lever to the NEUTRAL position. Apply the parking brake.

3. Stop the engine.

4. Permit only two people in the cab (one operator and one service person). The machine operator
must only operate the machine as told by the service person. Keep all other personnel either away
from the machine or in view of the operator at all times.

5. Move the hydraulic control levers to all positions to release the pressure in the implement
hydraulic system. Turn the steering wheel back and forth several times to relieve pressure in the
steering accumulator.

6. Carefully loosen the filler cap on the hydraulic tank.

7. Make sure all hydraulic pressure is released before any fitting, hose or component is loosened,
tightened, removed or adjusted.

8. Tighten the filler cap on the hydraulic tank.

9. The pressure in the hydraulic system has now been released and lines or components can be
removed.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Methods
All of the connections between the harnesses on the motor graders are made with rubber "Sure Seal"
connectors. If these connections are not tight, they can be the cause of electrical problems, either
permanent or intermittent (come and go). Make sure the connections are tight before other tests are
made.

5P7277 Voltage Tester

8S4627 Circuit Tester

The 5P7277 Voltage Tester can be used to check if voltage is present in a circuit. It can not measure
voltage. The light will come ON as a voltage indication between 12 and 36 volts.

The 8S4627 Circuit Tester can be used to check circuits without voltage for continuity. The light in
the Circuit Tester is dim (not much light) with a 10 ohm resistance in the test circuit. The light is
brighter (more light) with less resistance in the test circuit.

Caterpillar Digital Multimeter (Typical Example)

The 6V7070 Heavy-Duty Digital Multimeter or 6V7800 Regular-Duty Digital Multimeter can be
used to test circuits for voltage or continuity. They can also be used to test diodes and to make a
measurement of current flow. The instructions that come with the multimeters tell how to use them.

Failure of an electrical component can cause or be caused by the failure of one or more other
components. Always find and correct the cause of the failure of an electrical component before
making a replacement of the component.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 13 of 15

PROBLEM 1: Machine has NO primary steering. Supplemental steering system OK.

Probable Cause:

A. Check valve (mounted in priority valve) failed closed or is installed backwards.

Troubleshooting:

a. Arrow on valve body must point toward front of machine. If oriented properly, check for free
flow in direction of arrow and for blocked flow in direction opposite to arrow.

PROBLEM 2: Supplemental steering system operating OK, but hydraulic system is


overheating.

Probable Cause:

A. Check valve mounted on hydraulic oil cooler bypass valve is bad or installed backwards.

Troubleshooting:

a. Arrow on valve body must point up (towards bypass valve). If installed in correct direction, check
for free flow in direction of arrow and for blocked flow in direction opposite to arrow.

PROBLEM 3: Steering effort is different between primary steering system and supplemental
steering system.

Specifications given in the book with the latest date.

Reference: For Hydraulic System Schematic see, Form No. SENR3988.

Sudden movement of the machine or release of oil under pressure can


cause injury to persons on or near the machine. To prevent possible
injury, do the procedure that follows before testing and adjusting the
hydraulic and steering system.

1. Move the machine to a smooth horizontal location. Move away from working machines and
personnel. Lower all implements to the ground.

2. Permit only one operator on the machine. Keep all other personnel either away from the machine
or in view of the operator.

3. Activate the parking brake.

4. Stop the engine.

5. Move the hydraulic control levers to all positions to release the pressure in the implement
hydraulic system. Turn the steering wheel back and forth several times to relieve pressure in the
steering accumulator.

6. Carefully loosen the filler cap on the hydraulic tank to release the pressure in the tank.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 32

7. Make sure all hydraulic pressure is released before any fitting, hose or component is loosened,
tightened, removed or adjusted.

8. Tighten the filler cap on the hydraulic tank.

9. The pressure in the system has now been released and lines or components can be removed.

When defining a hydraulic or steering system problem, the following procedure should be followed.
First, do Visual Checks. If when complete the problem has not been identified, do Operation
Checks. If the problem is still not fully understood, do Instrument Tests. This procedure will help
identify hydraulic system problems. As soon as the problem is defined, go to Troubleshooting. The
Troubleshooting section will list the probable causes of a known problem. Since there may be more
than one cause for a problem, the Troubleshooting section may suggest specific inspections or
instrument tests be done. These inspections and tests will help identify which of the causes is most
probable.

During a diagnosis of the hydraulic system, remember that correct oil flow and pressure are
necessary for correct operation. The maximum output of the pump (oil flow) increases with an
increase in engine speed (rpm) and decreases when engine speed (rpm) is decreased. Oil pressure is
caused by resistance to the flow of oil.

Visual Checks
A visual inspection of the hydraulic and steering system and its components is the first step when
identifying a problem. Stop the engine and lower the implements to the ground. To remove the tank
filler cap, slowly turn the filler cap until it is loose. If oil comes out, let the tank pressure lower
before the filler cap is removed. Make the following inspections:

Do not check for leaks with your hands. Pin hole (very small) leaks can
result in a high velocity oil stream that will be invisible close to the hose.
This oil can penetrate the skin and cause personal injury. Use
cardboard or paper to locate pin hole leaks.

1. Check all implement oil line connections for damage and leaks.

2. Follow all implement oil lines from the implement connections to valve connections. Check the
lines and connections for damage and leaks.

3. Check the control valves for leaks.

4. Check the pump and connections for damage and leaks.

5. Follow the pump lines to the tank and valves. Check the lines and tank for damage and leaks.

6. Check tank oil level.

7. Use a clear bottle or container to get an oil sample from the tank immediately after the machine is
stopped. Check for air bubbles in the oil sample.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 32

8. Remove the filter elements and strainer. Check for particles removed from the oil by the filter
elements. A magnet will separate ferrous particles from non-ferrous particles (piston rings, O-rings,
seals, etc.). Replace filters if necessary and clean strainer.

Operation Checks
The operation checks can be used to find leakage in the system. They can also be used to find a bad
valve or pump.

The oil in the hydraulic system must be at operating temperature of 46 to 52°C (115 to 125°F).

Extend and retract the implement cylinders several times.

1. Watch the cylinder as it is extended and retracted. Movement must be smooth and regular.

2. Listen for noise from the pump.

3. Allow the implement cylinders to travel full stroke in each direction.

4. Put each control valve in the HOLD position while the implement is off the ground. Watch for
excessive cylinder rod drift.

Implement cylinder drift is caused by leakage past cylinder piston seals or leaking lock check valve.

Hydraulic Cylinder Drift


If the hydraulic cylinder drift (rod moves either in or out of the cylinder when the control lever is in
the HOLD position) is enough to effect the performance of the machine during normal operations,
there is either a component with damage or a component that must be disassembled and cleaned.

For example: There is a load on the tip cylinder when the blade is being used to move dirt.

Causes for cylinder drift:

1. Damage or defect on cylinder surface.


2. Seal on piston has damage.
3. Scratch or groove in cylinder.
4. Scratch or groove on cylinder rod.
5. Damage on seal in cylinder head.
6. Dirt or damage in lock check valve.
7. Loose fittings or hydraulic lines with damage that have oil leaks.

Implement Circuit Cycle Times


Stop Watch Or Timer

The machine must be on a dry, smooth, hard surface. The lock pin must be in the center hole and the
blade should be near the ground.

All implement cycle times are to be done at high idle rpm and with the hydraulic oil at running
temperature.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 32

The two columns at the right of the chart are to record ACTUAL times measured for each
implement.

Cycle times shown in chart are in SECONDS. All times have a tolerance of ± 10%.

Steering check is in number of turns from stop to stop.

Blade Lift Cycle Time


The machine must be on a dry, smooth, hard surface. The lock pin must be in the center hole.

Blade lift cycle time must be done with engine at high idle rpm and with the hydraulic oil at running
temperature.

Procedure To Check Blade Lift Cycle Time

Tools Needed: Stop watch or timer and a tape measure.

1. Record the time it takes to lower the blade on level ground.

2. Measure the length of exposed cylinder rod.

3. Record the time it takes to raise the blade to full lift.

Refer to the following chart for the correct Blade Lift Cycle Times.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 32

Probable Causes For Implement Circuit Cycle Times

If all implement cycle times are too high (takes too much time), see "Implement System Problems",
Problem 2: "Implement Response Is Too Slow".

If only one or a couple of implement cycle times are too high (takes too much time), see "Implement
System Problems", Problem 1: "One Implement Response Is Too Slow".

If implement cycle times are too low (takes not enough time), see "Implement System Problems",
Problem 9: "Implement Response Is Too Fast".

If the number of steering turns is not correct, see "Steering System Problems", Problem 8: "Steering
Wheel Does Not Turn The Correct Number Of Turns".

Instrument Tests
Pump Efficiency Check
To check pump efficiency, this type of pump (load sensing, pressure and flow compensated) must be
operated at maximum pump flow.

For any pump test at a given rpm, the pump flow (gpm) at 100 psi (690 kPa) will be larger than the
pump flow (gpm) at 1000 psi (6900 kPa).

The difference between the pump flow of two operating pressures is the flow loss.

Method of finding flow loss:

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022

Flow loss when expressed as a percent of pump flow is used as a measure of pump performance.

Example of finding percent of flow loss:

If the percent of flow loss is more than 10% for test on the machine or 15% for test on the bench,
pump performance is not good enough.

*
Numbers in examples are for illustrations and are not values for any specific pump or pump
condition. See the Specifications section of this manual, for pump flow of a new pump at 100 psi
and 1000 psi.

Test On The Machine

Install a flow meter. Run the engine at 2000 rpm. Measure pump flow at 100 psi (690 kPa) and at
1000 psi (6900 kPa). Use these values in Formula I.

Test On The Bench

For this test, make sure a signal line is connected from pump output to the pump compensator.

If the test bench can be run at 1000 psi and a full pump rpm, find percent of flow loss using Formula
I.

If the test bench can not be run at 1000 psi at full pump rpm, run the pump shaft at 1000 rpm.
Measure the pump flow at 100 psi (690 kPa) and at 1000 psi (6900 kPa). Use these values in the top
part of Formula II. For the bottom part of the formula, run the pump shaft at 2000 rpm. Measure the
pump flow at 100 psi.

Checking Steering Pressure

1. Turn steering wheel back and forth several times to relieve accumulator pressure.

2. Remove the plug from the junction block at the base of the accumulator. Install nipple and adapter
(1) and a 20 700 kPa (3000 psi) pressure gauge in junction block.

3. Start the engine and run at hidh idle.

4. Steer wheel left or right against their stops. The pressure gauge should read 17 200 kPa (2500
psi). This is maximum steering pressure.

Steering Accumulator Pressure And Precharge Check

Make reference to the Warning on the first page of Testing And


Adjusting section.

(1) Nipple and adapter.

NOTICE

Relieve accumulator pressure before installing or removing any service


tooling.

NOTE: Do not check the accumulator pressure by checking the nitrogen precharge pressure. The
leakage from checking the nitrogen precharge may require the accumulator to be recharged.

1. Turn the steering wheel back and forth several times to relieve accumulator pressure.

2. Remove the plug from the junction block at the base of the accumulator. Install nipple and adapter
(1) and a 20 500 kPa (3000 psi) pressure gauge in junction block.

3. Start the engine and run at high idle.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 22 of 32

4. Steer wheels left or right against their stops. The pressure gauge should read 17 200 kPa (2500
psi). This is maximum steering pressure.

5. Release the steering wheel and stop the engine.

6. Oil pressure will drop down slowly until it reaches the accumulator precharge pressure. The
nitrogen precharge for the accumulator is 6900 kPa (1000 psi). When oil pressure reaches this
pressure, the gauge will suddenly drop off to zero. Make note of the pressure that the gauge
suddenly drops. This is the accumulator precharge. At zero pressure, the accumulator has completely
bled down. Bleed down takes 7 to 8 minutes.

NOTE: To speed up the bleed down time, slowly turn the steering wheel back and forth. This will
use up the pressure oil stored in the accumulator causing it to bleed off quickly. However, it is
difficult to read the accumulator precharge pressure with oil pressure dropping off so fast.

7. If the steering system pressure in Step 4 was incorrect, see Steering System Maximum Pressure.

If the accumulator precharge pressure in Step 6 was incorrect, see Testing And Charging The
Accumulator.

Testing And Charging The Accumulator


7S5437 Nitrogen Charging Group.

Dry nitrogen is the only gas approved for use in the accumulator.
Charging the accumulator with oxygen gas will cause an explosion. This
danger will not happen if nitrogen cylinders with standard CGA
(Compressed Gas Association, Inc.) Number 580 connections are used.
When you order nitrogen gas, be sure that the cylinders are equipped
with CGA No. 580 Connections. Do not use color codes or other
methods of identification to tell the difference between nitrogen and
oxygen cylinders.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 23 of 32

In any application, never use an adapter to connect the nitrogen charging equipment to a valve that
can be used on oxygen or other gas cylinders. BE SURE YOU ARE USING DRY NITROGEN.

Be sure the engine has not been running for a minimum of 7 to 8 minutes. This is enough time to let
the oil in the accumulator bleed down. The accumulator bladder must be on the bottom of the
cylinder to be sure that the pressure of the nitrogen charge is correct.

The accumulator has a charge of approximately 6900 kPa (1000 psi).

Steering Accumulator

(9) Cap.

Check the nitrogen charge as follows:

1. Remove cap (9) from the top of the accumulator.

2. Use the 13 800 kPa (2000 psi) gauge (5) to check the nitrogen charge in the accumulator.

3. Install chuck (8) on the valve of the accumulator.

(1) Pressure gauge. (2) Connection to nitrogen cylinder valve. (3) Regulator assembly. (4) Valve. (5) Pressure gauge. (6)

Pressure regulating screw. (7) Valve handle. (8) Chuck.

4. Turn valve (7) on the chuck (8) completely in (clockwise). Check the temperature of the air
around the accumulator. The pressure on the gauge must be inside the tolerances shown on the chart.

5. If the pressure reading on the gauge is too high, lower the pressure by slowly opening valve (4).

6. If the pressure reading on the gauge is too low, then the accumulator must be charged.

Charging The Accumulator

1. Connect the hose from the nitrogen cylinder to valve (4).

2. Close valve (4) and open the valve on the nitrogen cylinder. Make an adjustment to screw (6) on
the regulator assembly until gauge (1) is at the pressure needed to correctly charge the accumulator.
Use the chart as a reference for the correct charging pressure.

3. Open valve (4) and charge the accumulator. Turn valve (4) off. If the pressure on gauge (5) is the
same as gauge (1) and does not change the accumulator is correctly charged. If there is a decrease in
pressure on gauge (5), open valve (4) and let more nitrogen go to the accumulator. Do this procedure
as many times as necessary until the pressure on gauge (5) is the same as gauge (1) and does not
change when valve (4) is turned off.

4. Close the valve (4). Close the valve on the nitrogen cylinder.

5. Open valve (7) on chuck (8) completely (counterclockwise).

6. Remove the test equipment.

Charging A Rebuilt Accumulator

It is necessary to remove all air from the nitrogen end of the accumulator. When the accumulator is
rebuilt, put approximately 0.9 liter (1 quart) of SAE 10W hydraulic oil in the nitrogen end of the
accumulator. This oil will be used to help get the air out of the nitrogen end of the accumulator.
After the accumulator is installed on the machine, charge it as follows:

1. Use the same equipment as used to check the nitrogen charge in the accumulator.

2. Valve (7) on chuck (8) must be closed completely (clockwise). Open valve (4).

3. Start the engine and let it run until it is warm. As oil is forced into the bottom of the accumulator,
the air and then the oil will be forced out of the top through the test equipment. When the oil flow
stops, the top of the accumulator will be free of air.

4. Close valve (4).

5. Stop the engine and let the oil pressure bleeddown for five minutes. The bladder in the
accumulator will be at the top of the accumulator.

6. Charge the accumulator with nitrogen. Follow the procedure outlined in the subject Charging The
Accumulator.

Introduction
SMCS - 7000-035

When the words "use again" are in the description, the specification given can be used to
determine if a part can be used again if the part is equal to or within the specification given, use
the part again.

When the word "permissible" is in the description, the specification given is the "maximum or
minimum" tolerance permitted before adjustment, repair and/or new parts are needed.

A comparison can be made between the measurements of a worn part and the specifications of a
new part to find the amount of wear. A part that is worn can be safe to use if an estimate of the
remainder of its service life is good. If a short service life is expected, replace the part.

Reference: For Systems Operation and Testing and Adjusting make reference to 12G, 120G,
130G and 140G Motor Graders, Hydraulic System And Steering, Form No. SENR3489.

General Information
SMCS - 1405

The alternator is an electronic component that is belt driven. The alternator is used to charge the
storage battery during engine operation. The alternators that are covered by this manual are inside
cooled. Air is drawn through baffles. The baffles are located in the rear cover. The air exits from
the drive end frame behind the fan.

The alternator converts a combination of mechanical energy and magnetic energy to alternating
current and voltage. This is done by rotating a direct current electromagnetic field on the inside of
a three-phase stator. The alternating current and voltage are generated by the stator. The current
and the voltage are changed to direct current by a three-phase full wave rectifier. The rectifier uses
six silicon rectifier diodes.

The 26-SI is a self-rectifying alternator. The 26-SI is also a brushless unit. The voltage regulator is
built in the alternator. The only movable part in the assembly is the rotor. The rotor is mounted on
a ball bearing at the drive end. The rotor is mounted on a roller bearing at the end with the
rectifier. The conductors that carry current are stationary. These conductors are in the field
winding, the stator windings, the six rectifying diodes, and the regulator circuit components. The
regulator and diodes are enclosed in a sealed compartment.

The voltage regulator limits the voltage that is produced by the alternator at the output terminal.
This is done by controlling the magnetic field that is present in the stationary field. The voltage
allows current to flow in order to satisfy the electrical loads that are placed on the system.

An internal sense lead is used in order to control voltage. The lead is installed between the diode
trio and the regulator.

Some of the 26-SI alternators use a .25 inch threaded stud as an output terminal. With this type of
terminal, the exposed metal parts are not insulated. The exposed metal parts will have battery
voltage when the parts are connected to the battery.

An "R" terminal is located on the side of the alternator. The "R" terminal is on the opposite side
from the output terminal. This terminal may be used to operate the one of the following
components:

• A Charge Indicator

• A Tachometer

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 2

• An Hour Meter

• A Similar Device

The component is provided voltage pulses at a frequency of 8 pulses for each revolution of the
alternator. The "R" terminal's components must not draw more than 4 amperes.

The alternator's case is grounded. However, do not operate the unit without an external path to
ground. A screw and a lockwasher are installed in a .25 inch threaded hole. The hole is located in
the housing by the rectifier. The hole is between the output terminal and the "R" terminal. The "R"
terminal is provided in order to connect a ground lead if a ground lead is used. Otherwise, the
ground path is through the mounting hardware and brackets to the engine. A paper tag is located
on a replacement. The tag identifies the "GROUND SCREW". Remove the tag and discard the
tag. The screw and the lockwasher should be installed in the housing. This is done in order to
prevent the entry of dirt and water.

26-SI Alternator Schematic

The 26-SI series alternator is a brushless, heavy-duty integral charging system. The alternator has
a built-in diode rectifier and a voltage regulator. The system produces DC current for electrical
systems.

The solid state integrated circuit voltage regulator that is built into the 26-SI alternator limits the
system voltage by switching the ground circuit for the rotor field on and off. When the ground
circuit is on, field current passes from a diode trio through the stationary field coil. Nominal
regulated voltages of 13.5 to 14.5 volts are available for 12 volt systems. The nominal regulated
voltage for the 24 volt system is between 27.0 and 29.0 volts.

As the alternator begins operating, the regulator detects battery voltage that is applied to the
ignition terminal. The initial exciting current then flows through the rotor coil. When the ignition
switch is turned ON the regulator turns on and off. This occurs intermittently in order to reduce
battery discharge. Current is kept to a minimum of approximately 0.17 amperes.

The voltage regulator turns ON the field current and the voltage regulator turns OFF the current
many times in one second in order to keep the voltage at a preset level.

For 12 volt systems, an output rating of 85 amperes is standard. For 24 volt systems, output ratings
of 50 or 75 amperes are available. The output ratings of a specific 26-SI model are located in
Specification, "Alternator".

The 26-SI alternator is designed for a one-wire charging system configuration. One wire refers to
the minimum number of connections that are necessary at the alternator for operation. The output
of the alternator must be connected to the positive terminal of the battery. A ground path is also
required. The ground path should run between the alternator housing and the ground terminal for
the battery.

The initial voltages at start-up are generated by residual magnetism in the rotor. As the speed
increases and the output increases, the voltage that is available at the diode trio becomes sufficient
to supply field current for normal operation. When output voltage exceeds battery voltage, the
alternator begins to drive the system voltage. The residual magnetism can be lost. This results in
no output. Loss of the residual magnetism can be caused by extended downtime or a severe shock
to the alternator. Refer to Troubleshooting, "T6 Residual Magnetism Restoration".

While the system voltage is below the setting of the voltage regulator, the regulator turns on the
field current. This allows the alternator to produce the maximum output. When the voltage setting
is reached, the regulator turns off the field current. When the field current is off, the magnetic field
in the rotor collapses and the alternator output voltage begins to fall. The falling voltage causes the
regulator to turn on the field current and the current rebuilds the magnetic field. This cycle
continues rapidly. The cycle keeps the output and the system voltage very close to the voltage
setting. The cycle will continue unless the electrical demands of the system cause the system
voltage to fall below the voltage setting. If the system voltage falls below the voltage setting, the
regulator will allow full field current to flow so that the alternator's maximum output is realized.

(2) Relay Terminal

External connections to the 26-SI alternator are made to the terminals that are shown in illustration
2. The standard output terminal is a female type. The connecting bolt is insulated. The cable for
charging has a special connector. When the connection is installed, the electrical connection is
sealed from moisture. No voltage exists at the exposed parts. The head of the connector bolt is
normally stamped "NO VOLTS" in order to indicate the insulated type.

All of the electronic parts of the alternator are sealed in a compartment in order to keep out the
moisture and the dirt.

Rotor

Illustration 2 g00632386

The rotor provides a magnetic field. The rotor rotates on a shaft. Therefore, this alternator is called
a rotary magnetic field alternator. A rotor consists mainly of the following parts: pole core
(magnetic pole), field coil and shaft.

The rotor contains the field coil. When current flows in the field coil, one side of the core is
magnetized. This side becomes the "N" pole. The other side becomes the "S" pole. With this form
(pawl pole), all poles are magnetized by one field coil.

Stator

Illustration 3 g00628076

The stator consists of a stator core and stator coil. The stator is supported by the front and rear
frames of the alternator. The stator core is made of a number of thin iron plates. The stator has
many slots on the inner surface. The slots accommodate the stator coil. Three independent coils
are provided. The coils generate AC voltage during rotation of the rotor. A hydraulic press is used
to insert the stator into the front frame. This arrangement allows heat to easily dissipate through
the frame. Cooling efficiency is increased.

Pulley
These alternators are usually equipped with a pulley with two slots. Tighten the pulley nut to 102
± 7 N·m (75 ± 5 lb ft).

Frame
The frame supports the stator and the rotor. The frame also provides mounting points in order to
mount the alternator on the engine. Holes for ventilation are provided on all sides of the frame for
efficient cooling. The rectifier, and the regulator are fastened to the rear end frame by screws. The
stator is pressed into the front end frame.

Rectifier

Illustration 4 g00628075

The rectifier is a one-piece design. The rectifier changes the three-phase AC into direct current.

Illustration 5 g00628079

The regulator controls the output of the alternator. The regulator limits the alternator voltage to a
preset value by controlling the field current. The regulator operates electronically in order to turn
on the voltage across the field winding. The regulator then switches off the voltage. The switching
can occur at a low rate such as 10 times in one second. The switching can occur at a high rate such
as several thousand times in one second.

Pressure Switch (Refrigerant)


SMCS - 1435-PX; 7320-QW

Air Conditioning High Low Pressure Switch

Illustration 1 g01506776

Schematic symbol and drawing for the high low pressure switch

The High Low pressure switch is used in order to monitor the refrigerant pressure that is coming
out of the discharge side of the refrigerant compressor. The pressure switch prevents the
compressor from operating when the pressure in the discharge line exceeds a specific pressure
range or when the pressure in the discharge line fails to maintain a specific pressure range. This
switch is electrically connected in series with the magnetic clutch for the refrigerant compressor,
and the evaporator coil thermostat. Similarly to the thermostat switch, the compressor will not
operate when the High-Low pressure switch is OPEN. When the High-Low pressure switch is
CLOSED, the current moves through the switch and through the coil assembly in the magnetic
clutch. This causes the compressor to operate.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 2

The High-Low pressure switch has two pressure set points that will cause the switch contacts to
OPEN. For a low pressure condition, the switch contacts will move OPEN whenever the pressure
value for the discharge line decreases to less than 170 kPa (25 psi). The switch contacts will
remain in the OPEN position until the pressure value increases to 275 kPa (40 psi) or more. For
the high pressure condition, the switch contacts will move OPEN whenever the pressure value for
the discharge line exceeds 2800 kPa (405 psi). The switch contacts will remain in the OPEN
position until the pressure value decreases to 1750 kPa (255 psi) or less.

Air Conditioning Low Pressure Switch

Illustration 2 g01506713

Schematic symbol and drawing for the low pressure switch

The Low pressure switch is used only in applications for the machine that also use the compressor
protection time delay relay. The Low pressure switch is used to monitor the refrigerant pressure
that comes into the suction side of the refrigerant compressor. The pressure switch prevents the
compressor from operating when the pressure for the suction line fails to maintain a specific
pressure range. This switch is electrically connected in series with the compressor protection time
delay relay, the high low pressure switch, and the thermostat for the evaporator coil. The
compressor will not operate when the Low pressure switch is OPEN. When the Low pressure
switch is CLOSED, a ground signal is sent to the compressor protection time delay relay. A
CLOSED low pressure switch indicates that the pressure for the suction line is high enough to
allow the refrigerant compressor to operate. The compressor protection time delay relay will then
turn on causing the compressor to operate.

The switch contacts on the low pressure switch will move OPEN whenever the pressure value for
the suction line decreases to less than 34 kPa (5 psi). The switch contacts will remain in the OPEN
position until the pressure value increases to 104 kPa (15 psi) or more.

Introduction
The 20-SI Delco Remy alternator is brushless. The output of the 20-SI Delco Remy alternator is
three phase and full wave rectified.

Alternator Operation

20-SI Alternator

The alternator is an electrical and mechanical component driven by belt rotation from the engine. It
is used to charge the storage battery during engine operation. The alternator is cooled by a fan that is
a part of the alternator. The fan pulls air in through holes on the sides at the back of the alternator.
The air exits out the front of the alternator, cooling it in the process.

The alternator converts mechanical and magnetic energy to alternating current (AC) and voltage.
This process is done by rotating a high carbon steel rotor between a direct current (DC) field coil
and a three phase stator. The alternating current and voltage (generated by the stator) are changed to
direct current by a three phase, full wave rectifier system using six silicone rectifier diodes. The
alternator also has a diode trio which is an assembly made up of three exciter diodes. The diode trio
rectifies field current needed to start the charging process.

A capacitor is mounted in the back of the alternator. The capacitor protects the rectifier and diode
trio from high voltages. It also suppresses radio noise.

Stator (3) consists of a stator core and windings. As rotor (2) turns, its varying magnetic field causes
stator (3) to produce three phase alternating current (AC).

Rotor (2)

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 5

Rotor (2) consists of two pole pieces mounted on a shaft. Rotor (2) provides the magnetic field
coupling between field coil (1) and stator (3).

Field coil (1)

Field coil (1) is the source of the magnetic field. The strength of the magnetic field is controlled by
regulator (4) which modulates the field current. The magnetic field induces a voltage in the stator
windings via rotor (2).

Rectifier (5)

Rectifier (5) contains three positive (+) and three negative (-) diodes to form the full wave rectifier
bridge which is connected to stator (3). Rectifier (5) changes (rectifies) three phase AC to DC.

Capacitor (6)

Capacitor (6) protects rectifier (5) and diode trio (7) from high voltages. It also suppresses radio and
electronic interference. Capacitor (6) is mounted in the back of the alternator and connects to
rectifier (5).

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 5

Diode Trio (7)

Diode trio (7) consists of three diodes. Initially voltages are generated in stator (3) by residual
magnetism in rotor (2). The voltages are impressed through diode trio (7) to regulator (4); through
the diodes in rectifier (5) and back to stator (3). Diode trio (7) is mounted to rectifier (5).

Regulator (4)

Regulator (4) controls alternator output. Regulator (4) limits the alternator voltage to a preset value
by controlling the field current. It operates electronically to alternately "turn off" and "turn on" the
voltage across field coil (1). Regulator (4) acts as an electronic switch. This switching between "off"
and "on" occurs at a rate as low as 10 times per second and as high as 7000 times per second.
Regulator (4) is mounted in the back of the alternator.

20-SI Integral Charging System Diagram

The integral charging system diagram and the explanation that follows describe the terminals and
basic circuitry for the 20-SI series alternator.

With the alternator operating, AC voltages initially are generated in the stator windings by residual
magnetism in the rotor. The diodes in the rectifier change the stator AC voltages to a DC voltage
which appears between ground and the "BAT" terminal. As speed increases, current is provided for
charging the battery and operating electrical accessories.

The stator also supplies DC field current through the diode trio, the field coil, the regulator
switching component and then through the diodes in the rectifier back to the stator.

As the alternator speed increases, the voltage at the "BAT" terminal increases. When the voltage
reaches a preset value, the regulator switching component opens. This turns the field current off. The
absence of field current reduces the magnetic field of the field coil. This causes the voltage at the
"BAT" terminal to decrease. When the voltage at the "BAT" terminal decreases to the preset value,
the regulator switching component closes. This allows the field current and voltage to increase to the
preset value again. This cycle then repeats many times per second to limit the voltage to the adjusted
value.

EMS Display Area
(1) Alert indicators

The Electronic Monitoring System (EMS) control notifies the operator of an immediate or
impending problem with a machine system. Warning operation begins when the EMS control
receives a signal that reflects an abnormal machine condition. The alternator and switches provide
signals to the EMS control. The signals are:

• An open switch. When a machine system condition exceeds the specified value of the
switch, the switch opens.

• An alternator "R" terminal signal which exceeds limits. The EMS control determines the
limits.

The EMS control analyzes the signals and activates the appropriate warning indication to notify
the operator. The warning indications are:

• FLASHING of an alert indicator

• FLASHING of the action lamp

• SOUNDING of the action alarm (ON and OFF)

Note: To activate some warning indications more than one input is required. The EMS control
decides when and what warning indications are activated.

Abnormal machine system conditions are classified into three warning categories: 1, 2, and 3. The
categories dictate the required response of the operator based on the severity of the condition.
Warning category 1 represents the least severe condition and warning category 3 represents the
most severe condition. The warning categories are identified for the operator according to the
combination of warning indications that are active. See Warning Operation chart.

When programming input 1 (connector contact 9) is grounded, connector contact 19 is assigned a warning category 1.

With this programming input open, connector contact 19 is assigned a warning category 3.

Switch Inputs - Uncommitted

The ten uncommitted switch inputs (connector contacts 4 through 8, 12, 14, 17, 18, and 19) provide
the information used to operate nine alert indicators. During normal operation, these switch inputs are
closed to ground. The grounded inputs tell the EMS control that the system conditions are normal and
no alert indicators are activated. These inputs receive information from pressure, temperature, flow,
level, and position switches located within the machine systems. Some machines are equipped with
other electronic controls that supply the EMS control with input information in place of a switch.

Switch Input - Speed Sensitive

This input activates indicator 3 if connector contact 18 is open and the "R" terminal frequency (which
represents engine speed) is above a certain frequency. This frequency is determined by the status of
connector contact 16. With contact 16 closed to ground, the frequency is 376 Hz ± 10%. With contact
16 open, the frequency is 470 Hz ± 10%.

Switch Input - Alarm Inhibit

A fuel pressure switch provides information about the engine operating status to the alarm inhibit
input (connector contact 13). During normal operation (engine running), the fuel pressure switch is
open. When the engine is stopped, the fuel pressure switch closes the alarm inhibit input to ground.
With this input grounded, the action alarm will not sound.

Switch Inputs - Programming

The programming switch inputs (connector contacts 9, 16, and 20) tell the EMS control how to
operate. The EMS control operates in a manner that corresponds to the open or grounded state of the
programming switch inputs. These inputs receive information from permanent connections within the
harness wiring or machine system switches (neutral switch). This information is necessary because of
the differences in machine models.

Input 1

This programming input (connector contact 9) tells the EMS control what warning category should be
assigned to an open connector contact 19. With this programming input closed to ground, connector
contact 19 is assigned a warning category 1. With this programming input open, connector contact 19
is assigned a warning category 3.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 6

Input 2

This programming input (connector contact 16) tells the EMS control what frequency should be used
for speed sensitive switch input 4 (connector contact 18). With contact 16 closed to ground, the
frequency is 376 Hz ± 10%. With contact 16 open, the frequency is 470 Hz ± 10%.

Input 3

This programming input (connector contact 20) tells the EMS control what warning category should
be assigned to an open connector contact 17. With this programming input closed to ground,
connector contact 17 is assigned a warning category 2. With this programming input open, connector
contact 17 is assigned a warning category 3.

Sensor Input - Alternator (Alert Indicator 8)

The "R" terminal of the alternator provides an AC signal to the EMS control. The EMS control
measures the frequency (Hz) of the AC signal and determines the speed at which the alternator is
rotating (engine speed). If frequency measured is below 94 Hz ± 10%, alert indicator 8 will flash. The
alternator "R" terminal information helps determine the condition of the electrical charging system.
Harness wiring directly connects the alternator "R" terminal to a frequency sensor input at the EMS
control.

Outputs

Alert indicators (1) notify the operator of an abnormal machine condition. The EMS control uses the
status of the uncommitted switch inputs and the sensor input to determine when an abnormal
condition is present. When an abnormal condition exists, alert indicator (1) flashes. The pictograph
symbol nearest the FLASHING alert indicator identifies the responsible machine system. For more
information, see the Warning Operation section.

Action Lamp

When a serious abnormal condition exists (warning category 2), the EMS control activates the action
lamp output (connector contact 11) and the action lamp flashes along with the alert indicator. For
more information, see the Warning Operation section.

Action Alarm

When a critical abnormal condition exists (warning category 3), the EMS control activates the action
alarm output (connector contact 10). The action alarm sounds along with flashing the alert indicator
and the action lamp. For more information, see the Warning Operation section.

Switches
SMCS - 1435; 7332

Switches provide information (input) to the EMS control. Switches are two-state devices. The two
states are:

• Closed - the switch connects the control input to frame ground (battery negative).

• Open - the switch does not connect the control input to anything (the input is floating).

Note: Some machines are equipped with other electronic controls that supply the EMS control
with input information in place of a switch. These controls connect the EMS switch input to
ground with an electronic circuit.

Note: For switch specifications, see the Electrical System Schematic in the machine Service

Power train filter bypass switch (1) is a limit switch which is activated by a valve spool within the
filter housing. During normal operation the switch is closed to ground. When the pressure across
the filter is greater than specified, the valve spool moves and a spring inside the switch opens the
switch contacts. At this same time, the valve spool allows the fluid to flow around (bypass) the
filter and the fluid supplied to the components is not interrupted. The open switch tells the EMS to
notify the operator that the filter is restricted (dirty). Off the machine (on the bench), the switch is
open (normally open).

General Information
SMCS - 1405

Often when problems with the charging system are being investigated, the alternator is not the
problem. If a low battery condition is present, test the batteries first. See Special Instruction,
SEHS7633, "Battery Test Procedure" for more information. If the engine cranks slowly, then test
the starting system. See Service Magazine, SEPD0020, "Testing The Starter On The Engine" for
more information. If a warning indicator for the charging system is ON, see Service Magazine,
SEBD1751, "Difference Between Alternator Indicator In Electronic Monitoring System (EMS)
And Low Voltage Indicator In Operating Monitoring System (OMS)". When a problem with the
charging system is suspected, then complete the testing that is outlined in this Special Instruction.

See Troubleshooting, "Initial Troubleshooting Procedure" in order to begin troubleshooting. These


procedures are designed to guide you to the problem with as little testing as possible. In most
cases, you will only use a few of the tests to diagnose a problem. The tests are labelled as T1 - T8
for easy reference. A descriptive title for each test is included as well.

Initial Troubleshooting Procedure


SMCS - 1405; 7569

1. CHECK THE SYSTEM VOLTAGE.

a. Before you start the machine, connect a voltmeter between the "B+" terminal and the
case of the alternator. Turn OFF all electrical loads.

b. Turn the key to the ON position but do not start the engine.

Expected Result: This voltage should be system voltage.

Results:

◾ YES - The voltage is system voltage. Go to Step 2

◾ NO - The voltage is less than system voltage. Verify that the batteries are good and
verify that battery connections are good. Go to Troubleshooting, "T4 Alternator
Drive System - Check" if the batteries are good.

2. INITIAL CHECK OF ALTERNATOR OPERATION

a. The voltmeter remains connected in the configuration from Step 1.

b. Start the machine. Set the throttle to at least 75%. Read the voltage on the voltmeter.

Expected Result: The voltage is higher than the voltage recorded in the previous Step 1.

Results:

◾ YES - The voltage is higher than the voltage observed in the previous Step 1. The
voltage is also lower than the maximum voltage that is listed in the specifications
for the alternator. The alternator is partially charging the battery. See the following
diagnostic flow chart for reference in continued testing. Proceed to
Troubleshooting, "T1 Alternator Output - Test".

◾ YES - The voltage is higher than the voltage observed in the previous Step 1. The
voltage is also higher than the maximum voltage that is listed in the specifications
for the alternator. The alternator is over charging. Proceed to Troubleshooting, "T8
Alternator Overcharging - Test".

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 2

◾ NO - The voltage is not higher than the voltage observed in Step 1. Proceed to
Troubleshooting, "T4 Alternator Drive System - Check".

Note: Severely discharged batteries can cause low system voltage. This can occur even while the
engine is running above idle, and the alternator is working properly. Proper low engine idle is also
important. The alternator is self-excited. Self-excited alternators must exceed a turn-on speed before
charging will begin. Alternator output can be very low at idle.

T1 Alternator Output - Test


SMCS - 1405-081

1. Ensure that the batteries are NOT fully charged.

a. Fully charged batteries have open circuit voltage above 12.5 V on 12 V systems or 25
V on 24 V systems.

b. If the batteries are fully charged, then crank the engine for 30 seconds. This action
reduces the battery voltage. Operate the lights for 10 minutes while the engine is off
as an alternative.

2. Connect the 9U-5795 Current Probe to a DMM (digital multimeter) or use the 225-8266
Ammeter Tool Gp . The multimeter must have a peak hold feature. Clamp the probe around
alternator output wire "B+". Before you clamp the probe around the wire, ensure that the
probe is "zeroed" .

3. Set the digital multimeter to "peak hold" or "max mode" on the "mV" scale.

4. Turn on all electrical accessories: lights, air conditioning and radio.

5. Start the machine, and immediately set the throttle to at least 75%. The peak current will
appear on the voltmeter in "peak hold" or "max" mode.

Expected Result: This current reading should be at least 90% of the specified peak output.

Results:

◦ OK - The current is at least 90%. For 85 amp alternators, the current should be over
76 A. For 75 amp alternators, the current should be over 67 A. For 50 amp alternators,
the current should be over 45 A. Go to Testing and Adjusting, "T2 Electrical System
Current - Test".

◦ NOT OK - The current is less than 90%. Go to Testing and Adjusting, "T4 Alternator
Drive System - Check".

T7 Identifying Source of Current Draw - Test


SMCS - 1405-081

1. Make sure that every electrical component is turned OFF. Make sure that the keyswitch is
turned OFF. Make sure that the dome lights are OFF.

2. Clamp a 9U-5795 Current Probe or 225-8266 Ammeter Tool Gp around the main ground
cable. Clamp the tool with the positive side away from the battery. Reset the probe (zero)
before clamping the probe around the wire. Use the current probe if the draw is above
approximately 2 A. Use the Ammeter if the draw is below approximately 2 A.

3. Monitor the current and remove fuses and breakers one at a time. Check the current after
each fuse (breaker) is removed. After removing a fuse (breaker) and observing the current,
reinstall the fuse (breaker). Start with the main fuses (circuit breakers) first, and proceed to
smaller circuits.

4. If a removal of a fuse causes the current to drop, then the problem is in that circuit.

a. Check if any components on the circuit are ON.

b. If everything is OFF, disconnect electrical components on that circuit one at a time


and monitor current.

c. After all of the components in that circuit have been disconnected, check the current.
If the problem still exists, then check the wiring for corrosion or shorts to ground.

Note: The standard acceptable current draw is 50 mA. A current draw above 50 mA usually
indicates a problem. However, some large machines with multiple electronic control modules have
a higher acceptable limit. Contact a Caterpillar dealer for more information.

Stator
Check the resistance that is between each of the phases. Measure the resistance between the end of
each lead wire and neutral point. The resistance should be less than 1 ohm.

Measure the insulation resistance between the core and the coil. Use the 142-5055 Insulation
Tester Group. Set the insulation tester at 500V. The resistance should be more than 100000 ohms.
When there is no continuity, check the lead wire connection. Disconnection of the stator coil is
unlikely.

3. Record the meter readings.

4. Reverse the meter leads.

5. Place the meter lead that was connected to the diode leads during 8 on heat sink (1) .

6. Connect the other meter lead to each of the diode leads (2) .

7. Record the meter readings.

The diode is functioning properly when the leads are connected one way and the multimeter
shows "0L". Then, the multimeter shows approximately .5 volts when the lead connections are
reversed.

The diode is shorted when the leads are connected one way and the multimeter shows "00". Then,
the multimeter shows "00" when the lead connections are reversed.

The diode is open when the leads are connected one way and the multimeter shows "0L". Then,
the multimeter shows "0L" when the lead connections are reversed.

Regulator
The test for the regulator does not cover all of the possible failures. The test verifies a few
common problems.

Illustration 2 g00628079

The regulator controls the output of the alternator. The regulator limits the alternator voltage to a
preset value by controlling the field current. The regulator operates electronically in order to turn
on the voltage across the field winding. The regulator then switches off the voltage. The switching
can occur at a low rate such as 10 times in one second. The switching can occur at a high rate such
as several thousand times in one second.

The voltage should not vary more than 0.3 volts during the procedure. The test measures the
voltage when the regulator changes the state of the field current. This test will determine problems
in the following components: Diode Trio, Field Coil and Regulator.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 4

Illustration 3 g00649573

1. Connect a variable power supply and two multimeters to the alternator. The setup is shown
in illustration 3.

2. Adjust the variable power supply until multimeter (A) indicates a current draw.

3. Measure the voltage. This voltage is the "Turn On" voltage. Record your results.

When the alternator is operating correctly, the voltage is 14.0 ±0.3 volts for a 12 volt system
and 27.4 ±0.6 volts for a 24 volt system. If the voltage is out of specifications, replace the
regulator.

4. Multimeter (A) reads the field current. When the alternator is operating correctly, the field
current is 5.7 to 7.1 amperes for a 12 volt system and 2.5 to 3.8 amperes for a 24 volt
system.

If the amperage is 0, the field coil is open or the regulator is open. If the amperage is high,
the field coil is shorted.

5. Divide the voltage from 3 by the field coil resistance. Refer to Specifications, "Alternator"
for the field coil resistance of your alternator.

6. Adjust the variable power supply to the "Turn On" voltage. The "Turn On" voltage was
measured in 2.

7. Adjust the voltage until multimeter (A) reads 0 amperes. Record your results. This is the
"Turn Off" voltage.

8. Subtract the "Turn On" voltage from the "Turn Off" voltage. The difference should not be
greater than 0.3 volts. A difference that is larger than 0.3 volts indicates a regulator
malfunction.

Make an adjustment to put the drive belt and drive pulley in correct alignment.

4. Alternator bearings are worn:

Install new bearings in the alternator.

Alternator Output Test

NOTE: These procedures are for testing the alternator while on the machine. However, the listed
output specifications apply to On Machine testing or Bench testing.

1. Put the multimeter positive (+) lead on the POS terminal of the alternator. Put the negative (-) lead
on the GRD terminal or the frame of the alternator. Put the clamp-on ammeter around the positive
output wire of the alternator.

2. Turn off all electrical accessories. With the fuel off, crank the engine for 30 seconds. Wait two
minutes to let the starting motor cool. If the system appears to operate at the specifications, crank the
engine again for 30 seconds.

NOTE: Cranking the engine for 30 seconds partially discharges the battery in order to do a charging
test. If the battery is already low in charge, skip this step. Jump-start engine or charge as required.

3. Start the engine and run at full throttle.

NOTE: Full throttle approximates the required drive pulley speed of 5000 rpm.

4. Immediately check output current. When operating correctly, this initial charging current is equal
to or greater than the full output current shown below:

3T6352 ... 35A

5N5692 ... 45A

7G7889 ... 60A

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 11

5. The alternator output voltage should stabilize within approximately 10 minutes at full throttle
(possibly longer depending upon battery size, condition and alternator rating). When operating
correctly, the alternator output voltage is:

3T6352 ... 27.4 ± 0.6 V

5N5692 ... 27.4 ± 0.6 V

7G7889 ... 14.0 ± 0.3 V

If the alternator is NOT performing within the specifications, see the Fault Conditions And Possible
Causes chart.

6. The charging current during this period should taper off to less than approximately 10 amps,
depending again upon battery and alternator capacities. If the charging current does not decrease as
specified, see the Fault Conditions And Possible Causes chart.

Alternator Component Tests

Regulator Test

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 11

Test Circuit For Regulator Test

This test is performed to determine an alternator or regulator malfunction. This test does not cover
all of the failure possibilities, but verifies a few common problems. See the Test Equipment chart for
the equipment needed for this test.

Alternator output voltage is regulated by controlling field coil current. The regulator senses output
voltage. If the voltage is low, the regulator allows field current flow and the voltage builds. When
output voltage exceeds the upper limit, field current is turned off. The output voltage of a properly
functioning alternator and regulator is:

3T6352 ... 27.4 ± 0.6V

5N5692 ... 27.4 ± 0.6V

7G7889 ... 14.0 ± 0.3V

The voltage should not vary more than approximately 0.3V during this process. This test measures
voltage when the regulator turns field current on and off and determines if there is an open or short
in the diode trio, field coil or regulator.

1. Connect variable power source (VPS) positive (+) lead to the alternator POS and R terminals as
shown. Connect VPS negative (- ) lead to the alternator GRD terminal or frame ground.

2. Adjust the voltage of the VPS until ammeter (A) first indicates current draw. Measure voltage (V)
and write this measurement down as turn-on voltage. When correctly operating, the turn-on voltage
is:

3T6352 ... 27.4 ± 0.6V

5N5692 ... 27.4 ± 0.6V

7G7889 ... 14.0 ± 0.3V

The regulator is bad if the turn-on voltage is not as specified.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 6 of 11

3. Ammeter (A) reads field current. When correctly operating, the field current is:

3T6352 ... 3.3 to 3.8A at 24V

5N5692 ... 2.5 to 2.8A at 24V

7G7889 ... 5.7 to 7.1A at 12V

NOTE: Divide the voltage from Step 2 by the resistance of the field coil winding (as shown in
specifications). This also gives the field current as seen on ammeter (A) for a correctly operating
system.

If ammeter (A) indication is zero amps, the rectifier, field coil or regulator are open. If ammeter (A)
indication is too high, it is possible the field coil is shorted.

4. If the measurements in Steps 2 and 3 are correct, go to Step 5. If they are NOT correct, the
alternator and/or regulator are bad.

5. Adjust VPS to the turn-on voltage as measured in Step 2. Slowly increase the voltage until
ammeter (A) indicates zero amps. Write this voltage down as turn-off voltage.

6. When correctly operating, the difference between the turn-off and turn-on voltages is no more
than 0.3V. A larger value indicates a regulator malfunction. Also, ammeter (A) should drop sharply
to zero amps. If not, the regulator is faulty.

7. If the alternator and regulator meet all test requirements and there is still a problem, do the
additional component tests that follow.

Capacitor Test

Capacitor
(1) Housing. (2) Ring terminal.

1. Remove the capacitor from the alternator.

2. Place and hold ring terminal (2) on housing (1). This discharges the capacitor.

NOTE: Each time this test is done, discharge the capacitor.

3. Put the multimeter on the 20M resistance (Ohms) scale. Connect a multimeter lead to ring
terminal (2). Connect the other multimeter lead to housing (1).

4. When correctly operating, the resistance is very low for a short period of time and then it should
stabilize above 100 000 ohms (meter reading 0.10 or greater).

5. If the reading is not correct, replace the capacitor.

5N5692 ... 8.5 to 9.5Ohms

7G7889 ... 1.7 to 2.1Ohms

3. If the resistance is not correct, the field coil is open or shorted. Replace the field coil.

Field Coil Ground Test

1. Put the multimeter on the 20M resistance (Ohms) scale. Touch and hold one meter lead to one
coil lead (1). Touch and hold the other meter lead to housing (2).

2. For correct operation, the resistance is 100 000 ohms or greater (meter reading 0.10 or greater).

3. If the meter reading is LOW, the field coil is grounded. Replace the field coil.

Stator Winding Continuity Test

1. Connect the meter leads between each pair of stator leads (1) for a total of three readings.

2. For correct operation, all three readings are approximately the same.

3. If any two readings differ by 0.10 ohms or more, replace the stator.

Stator Winding Ground Test

1. Put the multimeter on the 20M resistance (Ohms) scale. Check each stator lead (1) for a short to
ground. Connect one meter lead to a stator lead (1) and touch the other meter lead to stator frame
(2). Repeat for each stator lead (1).

2. For correct operation, the resistance is 100 000 ohms or greater (meter reading 0.10 or greater) for
each stator lead.

3. If the meter reading is low, the stator is grounded. Replace the stator.

Diode Trio Test

1. Put the multimeter on the diode scale. Connect the meter to single terminal (1) and one of
terminals (2). Note the meter reading.

2. Reverse the meter leads and note the meter reading.

3. When correctly operating, the reading for one Step is OL and the reading for the other Step is .4
to .9 volts.

If the readings are not correct the diode trio is open or shorted. Replace the diode trio

4. Repeat Steps 1-3 for the other two terminals (2).

Rectifier Tests

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 9 of 11

Rectifier
(1) Negative (-) diode clips. (2) Grounded heat sink. (3) Positive (+) diode clips. (4) Insulated heatsink.

For the following tests all diode clips (1) and (3) must not contact any thing. Bend all diode clips (1)

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 10 of 11

Rear Frame
(1) Screw. (2) Screw. (3) Screw.

It is possible for damaged or missing insulators to cause improper battery charging and damage
electrical components. Carefully inspect the component mounting screws.

Screws (1) and (2) which fasten the field coil leads to the regulator, have insulators on them. Screw
(3) which fastens the POS strap and the capacitor lead to the rectifier, has an insulator.

The insulators electrically isolate the screws from the attaching components. Screws (1), (2) and (3)
should have NO continuity with the attaching components.

Restoring Residual Magnetism


It is possible for charging problems to occur when installing new or rebuilt alternators that have lost
their residual magnetism. These alternators have residual magnetism in the rotor core to generate
sufficient current to start the charging process. Some of the probable causes of reduced residual
magnetism are:

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 11 of 11

* Dropping or rough handling of the alternator.* Storage temperatures above approximately 38°C
(100°F).* Extended storage periods of more than three to six months.* Manufacturing tolerances in
the alternator.* Alternator disassembled for repairs and testing.

When the residual magnetic field is reduced below the level to "excite" the alternator, perform the
following procedure to restore it again.

Procedure

Connections For Restoring Residual Magnetism


(1) Jumper wire.

Do the procedure that follows to restore the residual magnetism in the alternators.

1. Connect a 24V battery between the BAT and GRD terminals of the alternator (as shown).

2. For approximately two seconds, connect jumper wire (1) between the BAT and the R terminal.
When correctly operating, a spark occurs as jumper wire (1) touches the R terminal. If there is not a
spark, the alternator has an internal open.

3. This restores the residual magnetism in the rotor coil.

EMS Display Area

(1) Alert Indicator

The output test verifies that the EMS action lamp, the action alarm, and the alert indicators are
operating properly. The EMS control performs this test each time the test switch is held in the
TEST or CHECK position. The operator must observe the outputs to determine whether the EMS
control is operating properly.

During the self-test:

• All alert indicators (1) flash (approximately nine times per second).

• The action lamp will flash (ON 1 second, OFF 2 seconds).

• The action alarm sounds (ON 1 second, OFF 2 seconds).

Wiring Harness (Open Circuit) - Test


SMCS - 1408-081

An open is a failure of an electrical circuit that results in no flow of electrical current. An open
circuit is usually caused by failed electrical wires or a poor connection of electrical connectors. If
an electrical wire or a connection is broken, the flow of electrical current through the circuit is
interrupted. A normally closed circuit will have less than 5 ohms of resistance. The following
procedure explains the test for an open circuit:

Reference: For a complete electrical schematic, refer to Electrical System Schematic for the
machine that is being serviced.

TEST FOR AN OPEN CIRCUIT

1. Identify the connectors and the wire numbers of the suspect circuits. Use the Electrical
System Schematic of the machine to identify the circuits.

2. Turn the key start switch and the disconnect switch to the OFF position.

3. Disconnect the component and the ECM from the wiring harness.

4. At one of the disconnected harness connections, place a jumper wire from the contact of the
suspect wire to frame ground.

5. At the other connector of the machine harness, use the multimeter probes to measure the
resistance from the contact of the suspect wire to frame ground.

Expected Result: The resistance is less than 5 ohms.

OK - The resistance is less than 5 ohms. The harness circuit is correct.

STOP.

NOT OK - The resistance is greater than 5000 ohms. There is an open in the machine
harness.

Repair: Repair or replace the machine harness.

STOP.

Wiring Harness (Short Circuit) - Test


SMCS - 1408-081

A short circuit is a failure of an electrical circuit that results in undesired electrical current.
Usually, a short circuit is a bypass of the circuit across a load. For example, a short across the
wires in a circuit for a lamp produce too much current in the wires but no current is felt at the
lamp. The lamp is shorted out. The resistance in a normal circuit can vary, but the resistance
between a particular circuit and other unrelated circuits is always greater than 5000 ohms. The
following procedure explains the test for a short circuit.

Reference: For a complete electrical schematic, refer to Electrical System Schematic for the
machine that is being serviced.

TEST FOR A SHORT CIRCUIT

1. Identify the connectors and the wire numbers of the suspect circuits. Use the Electrical
System Schematic of the machine to identify the circuits.

2. Turn the key start switch and the disconnect switch to the OFF position.

3. Disconnect the component and the ECM from the wiring harness.

4. At the machine harness connector for the ECM, place one of the multimeter probes on the
contact of the suspect wire.

5. Use the other multimeter probe to check the resistance across all other contacts in the
connector(s) of the ECM and frame ground.

Expected Result: The resistance is greater than 5000 ohms for all the measurements.

OK - The resistance is greater than 5000 ohms for all the measurements. The harness
circuits are correct.

STOP.

NOT OK - The resistance is less than 5 ohms. There is a short in the machine harness. The
short is between the suspected wire and the wire with the lowest resistance measurement.

Repair: Repair or replace the machine harness.

Intermittent electrical problems are often caused by poor connections. Use the following checks as
a reference for inspecting connectors.

1. Check the connection of the connectors.

◦ Ensure that the locking rings are properly locked.

◦ Ensure that locking clips are used on Sure Seal connectors.

◦ Ensure that the center of the connector is tight.

◦ Ensure that the connector pins and sockets align properly.

2. Check the wires at the connector.

◦ Ensure that the wires enter the back of the connector straight.

◦ Ensure that each wire is properly crimped into the proper connector contact.

◦ Ensure that each connector contact is properly locked into the connector contact.
When the connector contact is locked properly, the contact (wire) cannot be pulled
out of the connector body without excessive force.

3. Check each wire for nicks or signs of abrasion in the insulation.

4. Check for moisture at the connector.

◦ Check for damaged connector seals or lost connector seals.

◦ Check for missing or loose wire hole plugs.

◦ Check for wires that do not enter the connector properly.

◦ If the wires enter the connector at an angle, there may not be a good seal between the
connector and the wire insulation.

◦ Moisture can enter the connector through the wire insulation.

Use this procedure under the following situation:

Use the following steps to help determine if the connector is the cause of the problem. If a problem is
found in the electrical connector, repair the connector and verify that the problem has been corrected.

The following background information is related to this procedure:

Many of the operational procedures and the diagnostic code procedures in this troubleshooting guide
will instruct you to check a specific electrical connector.

Intermittent electrical problems are often caused by poor connections. Always check for an active
diagnostic code before breaking any connections. Also, always check for an active diagnostic code
after the connector is reconnected in order to verify that the problem disappears.

Simply disconnecting the connectors and then reconnecting the connectors can temporarily solve a
problem at times. If reconnecting the connectors solves the problem, likely causes are loose

much. The bolt may break.

b. Do not exceed 6.0 N·m (53.0 lb in) of torque on the connector bolt of the harness when
the connector is being installed on the ECM.

Expected Result: The harness connector is secure and the connector bolt of the ECM is
properly torqued.

Results:

OK - The harness connector is secure and the connector is properly torqued. Proceed to
test step 3.

NOT OK - A problem exists with the connector.

Repair: Secure the harness connector of the ECM. Ensure that the connector bolt is
properly torqued.

STOP.

3. PERFORM A PULL TEST ON EACH CONNECTOR CONTACT.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 8

a. Each connector contact should withstand 45 N (10 lb) of pull. Each wire should remain
in the connector body. This test checks whether the wire was properly crimped in the
contact and whether the contact was properly inserted into the connector.

b. The DT connectors use an orange wedge to lock the terminals in place.

c. Check in order to ensure that the orange wedge is not missing and that the orange wedge
is installed properly on the DT connectors.

Note: A Crimp Tool should ALWAYS be used in order to crimp wires on connector
contacts. Do not solder the terminals. Use the proper Crimp Tool.

Expected Result: Each connector contact should withstand 45 N (10 lb) of pull. Each
wire remains in the connector body.

Results:

OK - Each connector contact withstands 45 N (10 lb) of pull. Each wire remains in the
connector body. Proceed to test step 4.

NOT OK - A problem exists with the connector.

Repair: Repair the wiring or replace the connector contact.

STOP.

4. CHECK THE WIRES FOR NICKS OR ABRASIONS IN THE INSULATION.

a. Carefully inspect each wire for signs of abrasion, nicks, or cuts.

The following areas are locations that should be checked:

◾ Exposed insulation

◾ Points of rubbing wire

b. Check all of the hold down clamps for the harness in order to verify that the harness is
properly clamped. Also check all of the hold down clamps for the harness in order to
verify that the harness is not compressed by the clamp. Pull back the harness sleeves in
order to check for a flattened portion of wire. The flattened portion of wire is caused by
the clamp that holds the harness.

Expected Result: The wires are free of abrasion, nicks, or cuts and the harness is
properly clamped.

Results:

OK - The wires are free of abrasion, nicks, or cuts and the harness is properly clamped.
Proceed to test step 5.

NOT OK - A problem exists with the wiring.

Repair: Repair the wires or replace the wires, as required.

STOP.

5. CHECK THE CONNECTORS FOR MOISTURE OR CORROSION.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 6 of 8

a. Ensure that the connector seals and the white sealing plugs are in place. If any of the
seals or plugs are missing, replace the seal or plug. If necessary, replace the connector.

b. Check all of the wiring harnesses in order to verify that the harness does not make a
sharp bend out of a connector. Sharp bends will deform the connector seal and will create
a path for the entrance of moisture. See Illustration 1.

Note: Minor seal abrasion is normal on the ECM connector seals. Minor seal abrasion
will not allow the entry of moisture.

c. Thoroughly inspect ECM connectors for evidence of moisture entry. If moisture or


corrosion is evident in the connector, the source of the moisture entry must be found.
Also, the source of the moisture entry must be repaired. If the source of the moisture
entry is not repaired, the problem will reoccur. Simply drying the connector will not fix
the problem. Likely paths for the entrance of moisture are from missing seals, improperly
installed seals, nicks in exposed insulation, and improperly mated connectors.

Note: Moisture can also travel from one connector through the inside of a wire to the
ECM Connector. If moisture is found in the ECM connector, thoroughly check all
connectors and wires on the harness that connect to the ECM. The ECM is not the source
of the moisture. Do not replace an ECM if moisture is found in either ECM connector.

Note: If corrosion is evident on the contacts or the connector, use only denatured alcohol
to remove the corrosion. Use a cotton swab or a soft brush to remove the corrosion. Do
not use cleaners that contain trichloroethylene because trichloroethylene may damage the
connector.

Expected Result: All of the connectors must be coupled and all of the seals must be
inserted. The harness and the wiring should be free of corrosion, moisture, abrasion, and
pinch points.

Results:

OK - All of the connectors are coupled and all of the seals are inserted. The harness and
the wiring are free of corrosion, moisture, abrasions, and pinch points. Proceed to test
step 6.

NOT OK - A problem exists with the connector, the wiring, or the wiring harness.
Moisture is present.

Repair: Repair the connectors or wiring and/or replace the connectors or wiring. Ensure
that all of the seals are properly in place and ensure that the connectors are coupled.
Verify that the repair eliminates the problem by operating the machine for several
minutes and by checking again for moisture.

STOP.

6. INSPECT THE CONNECTOR CONTACTS.

a. Verify that the contacts are not damaged. Verify that the contacts are properly aligned in
the connector and verify that the contacts are properly located in the connector.

Expected Result: The contacts are properly aligned and the contacts appear undamaged.

Results:

Wiring Harness (Open Circuit) - Test


SMCS - 1408-081

An open is a failure of an electrical circuit that results in no flow of electrical current. An open
circuit can be caused by failed electrical wires or a poor connection of electrical connectors. If an
electrical wire or a connection is broken, the flow of electrical current through the circuit is
interrupted. A normally closed circuit will have less than 5 ohms of resistance. The following
procedure explains the test for an open circuit:

Reference: For a complete electrical schematic, refer to Electrical System Schematic for the
machine that is being serviced.

TEST FOR AN OPEN CIRCUIT.

1. Identify the connectors and the wire numbers of the suspect circuits. Use the Electrical
System Schematic of the machine to identify the circuits.

2. Turn the key start switch and the disconnect switch to the OFF position.

3. Disconnect the component and the ECM from the wiring harness.

4. At one of the disconnected harness connections, place a jumper wire from the contact of the
suspect wire to frame ground.

5. At the other connector of the machine harness, use a multimeter to measure the resistance
from the contact of the suspect wire to frame ground.

Expected Result: The resistance is less than 5 ohms.

OK - The resistance is less than 5 ohms. The harness circuit is correct.

Stop.

NOT OK - The resistance is greater than 5000 ohms. There is an open in the machine
harness.

Repair: Repair the machine harness or replace the machine harness.

Stop.

Wiring Harness (Short Circuit) - Test


SMCS - 1408-081

A short circuit is a failure of an electrical circuit that results in undesired electrical current.
Usually, a short circuit is a bypass of the circuit across a load. A short across the wires in a circuit
produces too much current in the wires. The resistance in a normal circuit can vary, but the
resistance between a particular circuit and other unrelated circuits is always greater than 5000
ohms. The following procedure explains the test for a short circuit:

Reference: For a complete electrical schematic, refer to Electrical System Schematic for the
machine that is being serviced.

TEST FOR A SHORT CIRCUIT.

1. Identify the connectors and the wire numbers of the suspect circuits. Use the Electrical
System Schematic of the machine to identify the circuits.

2. Turn the key start switch and the disconnect switch to the OFF position.

3. Disconnect the component and the ECM from the wiring harness.

4. At the machine harness connector for the ECM, place one of the multimeter probes on the
contact of the suspect wire.

5. Use the other multimeter probe to check the resistance across all other contacts in the
connectors of the ECM and frame ground.

Expected Result: The resistance is greater than 5000 ohms for all the measurements.

OK - The resistance is greater than 5000 ohms for all the measurements. The harness
circuits are correct.

Stop.

NOT OK - The resistance is less than 5 ohms. There is a short in the machine harness. The
short is between the suspected wire and the wire with the lowest resistance measurement.

Repair: Repair the machine harness or replace the machine harness.

Use this procedure under the following situation:

Use the following steps to help determine if the connector is the cause of the problem. If a problem is
found in the electrical connector, repair the connector and verify that the problem has been corrected.

The following background information is related to this procedure:

Many of the operational procedures and the diagnostic code procedures in this troubleshooting guide
will instruct you to check a specific electrical connector.

Intermittent electrical problems are often caused by poor connections. Always check for an active
diagnostic code before breaking any connections. Also, always check for an active diagnostic code
after the connector is reconnected in order to verify that the problem disappears.

Simply disconnecting the connectors and then reconnecting the connectors can temporarily solve a
problem at times. If this occurs, likely causes are loose terminals, bent terminals, improperly crimped
terminals, corrosion, or harness routing that is improper.

The original source of the problem must then be identified in order to ensure that the problem does
not reoccur.

Follow this procedure to inspect the connectors thoroughly, in order to determine if the connectors
are the cause of the problem.

The 8T-8729 Connector Pin (2) and the 8T-8730 Connector Socket (1) is designed to accept only one 16/18 AWG wire.
Do not insert multiple wires of a smaller wire size. An incorrect method would be using two 24 AWG wires. The 9W-
0852 Connector Pin and the 9W-0844 Connector Socket are designed to accept only one 14 AWG wire. Do not insert
multiple wires of a smaller wire size. An example of an incorrect method is the use of two 20 AWG wires.

1. CHECK THE CONNECTORS.

a. Ensure that the connector is properly locked. Also, ensure that the two halves of the
connector cannot be pulled apart.

b. Verify that the latch tab of the connector is properly latched. Verify that the latch tab of
the connector is fully latched.

Expected Result: The connector will securely lock. The connector and the locking
mechanism are without cracks or breaks.

Results:

OK - The connector will securely lock. The connector and the locking mechanism are
without cracks or breaks. Proceed to test step 2.

NOT OK - A problem exists with the connector.

Repair: Repair the connector or replace the connector, as required.

STOP.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 9

2. CHECK THE ALLEN HEAD SCREW ON THE HARNESS CONNECTOR OF THE


ECM.

a. Ensure that the connector bolt is properly tightened. Be careful not to tighten the bolt too
much. The bolt may break.

b. Do not exceed 6.0 N·m (53.0 lb in) of torque on the connector bolt of the harness when
the connector is being installed on the ECM.

Expected Result: The harness connector is secure and the connector bolt of the ECM is
properly torqued.

Results:

OK - The harness connector is secure and the connector is properly torqued. Proceed to
test step 3.

NOT OK - A problem exists with the connector.

Repair: Secure the harness connector of the ECM. Ensure that the connector bolt is
properly torqued.

STOP.

3. PERFORM A PULL TEST ON EACH CONNECTOR CONTACT.

a. Each connector contact should withstand 45 N (10 lb) of pull. Each wire should remain
in the connector body. This test checks whether the wire was properly crimped in the
contact and whether the contact was properly inserted into the connector.

b. The DT connectors use an orange wedge to lock the terminals in place.

c. Check in order to ensure that the orange wedge is not missing and that the orange wedge
is installed properly on the DT connectors.

Note: A Crimp Tool should ALWAYS be used in order to crimp wires on connector
contacts. Do not solder the terminals. Use the proper Crimp Tool.

Expected Result: Each connector contact should withstand 45 N (10 lb) of pull. Each
wire remains in the connector body.

Results:

OK - Each connector contact withstands 45 N (10 lb) of pull. Each wire remains in the
connector body. Proceed to test step 4.

NOT OK - A problem exists with the connector.

Repair: Repair the wiring or replace the connector contact.

STOP.

4. CHECK THE WIRES FOR NICKS OR ABRASIONS IN THE INSULATION.

a. Carefully inspect each wire for signs of abrasion, nicks, or cuts.

The following areas are locations that should be checked:

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 6 of 9

◾ Exposed insulation

◾ Points of rubbing wire

b. Check all of the hold down clamps for the harness in order to verify that the harness is
properly clamped. Also check all of the hold down clamps for the harness in order to
verify that the harness is not compressed by the clamp. Pull back the harness sleeves in
order to check for a flattened portion of wire. The flattened portion of wire is caused by
the clamp that holds the harness.

Expected Result: The wires are free of abrasion, nicks, or cuts and the harness is
properly clamped.

Results:

OK - The wires are free of abrasion, nicks, or cuts and the harness is properly clamped.
Proceed to test step 5.

NOT OK - A problem exists with the wiring.

Repair: Repair the wires or replace the wires, as required.

STOP.

5. CHECK THE CONNECTORS FOR MOISTURE OR CORROSION.

a. Ensure that the connector seals and the white sealing plugs are in place. If any of the
seals or plugs are missing, replace the seal or plug. If necessary, replace the connector.

b. Check all of the wiring harnesses in order to verify that the harness does not make a
sharp bend out of a connector. A sharp bend will deform the connector seal and will
create a path for the entrance of moisture. See Illustration 1.

Note: It is normal to see some minor seal abrasion on the ECM connector seals. Minor
seal abrasion will not allow the entry of moisture.

c. Thoroughly inspect ECM connectors for evidence of moisture entry. If moisture or


corrosion is evident in the connector, the source of the moisture entry must be found and
the source of the moisture entry must be repaired. If the source of the moisture entry is
not repaired, the problem will reoccur. Simply drying the connector will not fix the
problem. Likely paths for the entrance of moisture are from missing seals, improperly
installed seals, nicks in exposed insulation, and improperly mated connectors.

Note: Moisture can also travel from one connector through the inside of a wire to the
ECM Connector. If moisture is found in the ECM connector, thoroughly check all
connectors and wires on the harness that connect to the ECM. The ECM is not the source
of the moisture. Do not replace an ECM if moisture is found in either ECM connector.

Note: If corrosion is evident on the contacts or the connector, use only denatured alcohol
to remove the corrosion. Use a cotton swab or a soft brush to remove the corrosion. Do
not use cleaners that contain trichloroethylene because trichloroethylene may damage the
connector.

Expected Result: All of the connectors should be coupled completely and all of the seals
should be inserted completely. The harness and the wiring should be free of corrosion,
moisture, abrasion, or pinch points.

Wiring Harness (Open Circuit) - Test


SMCS - 1408-081

An open is a failure of an electrical circuit that results in no flow of electrical current. An open
circuit is usually caused by failed electrical wires or a poor connection of electrical connectors. If
an electrical wire or a connection is broken, the flow of electrical current through the circuit is
interrupted. A normally closed circuit will have less than 5 ohms of resistance. The following
procedure explains the test for an open circuit:

ReferenceFor a complete electrical schematic, refer to Electrical System Schematic for the
machine that is being serviced.

TEST FOR AN OPEN CIRCUIT.

1. Identify the connectors and the wire numbers of the suspect circuits. Use the Electrical
System Schematic of the machine to identify the circuits.

2. Turn the key start switch and the disconnect switch to the OFF position.

3. Disconnect the component and the ECM from the wiring harness.

4. At one of the disconnected harness connections, place a jumper wire from the contact of the
suspect wire to frame ground.

5. At the other connector of the machine harness, use the multimeter probes to measure the
resistance from the contact of the suspect wire to frame ground.

Expected Result: The resistance is less than 5 ohms.

OK - The resistance is less than 5 ohms. The harness circuit is correct.

Stop.

NOT OK - The resistance is greater than 5000 ohms. There is an open in the machine
harness.

Repair: Repair the machine harness or replace the machine harness.

Stop.

Wiring Harness (Short Circuit) - Test


SMCS - 1408-081

A short circuit is a failure of an electrical circuit that results in undesired electrical current.
Usually, a short circuit is a bypass of the circuit across a load. For example, a short across the
wires in a circuit for a lamp produces too much current in the wires but no current is felt at the
lamp. The lamp is shorted out. The resistance in a normal circuit can vary, but the resistance
between a particular circuit and other unrelated circuits is always greater than 5000 ohms. The
following procedure explains the test for a short circuit:

ReferenceFor a complete electrical schematic, refer to Electrical System Schematic for the
machine that is being serviced.

TEST FOR A SHORT CIRCUIT.

1. Identify the connectors and the wire numbers of the suspect circuits. Use the Electrical
System Schematic of the machine to identify the circuits.

2. Turn the key start switch and the disconnect switch to the OFF position.

3. Disconnect the component and the ECM from the wiring harness.

4. At the machine harness connector for the ECM, place one of the multimeter probes on the
contact of the suspect wire.

5. Use the other multimeter probe to check the resistance across all other contacts in the
connector(s) of the ECM and frame ground.

Expected Result: The resistance is greater than 5000 ohms for all the measurements.

OK - The resistance is greater than 5000 ohms for all the measurements. The harness
circuits are correct.

Stop.

NOT OK - The resistance is less than 5 ohms. There is a short in the machine harness. The
short is between the suspected wire and the wire with the lowest resistance measurement.

Repair: Repair the machine harness or replace the machine harness.

General Information
SMCS - 7490

Troubleshooting the Electronic Monitoring System (EMS) requires additional information from
the machine Service Manual. The Electrical System Schematic and the Operation and
Maintenance Manual are required support material.

As a guide, a Typical EMS Schematic is at the end of this manual. For an accurate representation
of the machine being diagnosed, see the Electrical System Schematic in the machine Service
Manual.

When the troubleshooting procedure instructs you to REPAIR THE HARNESS, use the Electrical
System Schematic in the machine Service Manual to trace the circuit. Perform continuity checks
at connectors to locate harness failures. At component connectors, always check the ground
circuit. Less than approximately 5 ohms of resistance is required between the connector ground
contacts and frame ground. Excessive ground resistance, greater than approximately 5 ohms, can
cause incorrect diagnosing of problems.

During troubleshooting, inspect all component and harness connections before any component is
replaced. If these connections are not clean and tight, electrical problems can occur, either
permanent or intermittent. Make sure that the connections are tight before other tests are made.

Failure of an electrical component can cause (or be caused) by the failure of one or more other
components. Always attempt to find and correct the CAUSE of an electrical system failure before
replacing of a component.

Display for the EMS

(1) Alert Indicators

Alert indicators show the status of switch inputs. The switch inputs can be open or grounded. If an
alert indicator is off, then the corresponding switch input is grounded. If an alert indicator is
flashing, the corresponding switch input is open. A fault occurs when the operation of an indicator
does not correspond to a known machine condition.

Before troubleshooting, ensure that a fault exists. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual
for a description of abnormal machine conditions that cause the alert indicators to flash. Perform
the following procedures only if a fault is suspected.

Note: Alert indicator "8" is often used to indicate an electrical system problem. The alert indicator
for the electrical system gets information from a sensor input or the alternator "R" terminal. The
alert indicator does not get information from a switch input.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 5

The operator or the service person discovers a fault in an indicator when the operation of an
indicator does not correspond to a known machine condition. The following scenario is an
example: The alert indicator for brake oil temperature flashes continuously. The indicator flashes
after extended periods of shutdown. The possible fault conditions for the indicators are shown
below:

• The alert indicator is always flashing: Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Alert
Indicator is Always Flashing".

• Alert indicator never flashes: Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Alert Indicator
Never Flashes".

The indicators reflect the open or grounded condition of the uncommitted switch inputs. When a
switch input is open, the corresponding alert indicator flashes. When a switch input is grounded,
the corresponding alert indicator is OFF. Open and ground the corresponding switch wire to check
a circuit. Watch for the correct result on the alert indicators.

Other fault conditions in EMS are also possible. These faults are the following:

• The action alarm sounds while the engine is off. Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures,
"Action Alarm Sounds with Engine Off".

• The action alarm sounds continuously. Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Action
Alarm On Continuously".

• The action alarm does not sound. Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Action Alarm
Does Not Sound".

• The action lamp is on continuously: Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Action Lamp
On Continuously".

• Action lamp does not light: Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Action Lamp Does
Not Flash".

• All the alert indicators and the action lamps are flashing. Refer to Diagnostic System
Procedures, "All Alert Indicators and Action Lamp Are Always Flashing".

• The test switch does not operate properly. Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Test
Switch".

• Engine oil pressure indicator flashes when engine speed exceeds 1200 rpm to 1500 rpm:
Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Alert Indicator For Engine Oil Pressure".

Electronic Monitoring System Troubleshooting


Begin your troubleshooting by gathering reliable information. Perform these four tests and write
down your results. Compare the results of each of the steps with the expected results. If the actual
results differ from the expected results, proceed to the probable cause to begin the diagnostic
procedure.

The EMS can be checked for correct operation with four basic test procedures. The test procedures
must be followed in order. Start with Test 1. The results from Test 2 depend on the results from
Test 1, etc.

There are many types of starting systems in the different vehicles with EMS. In the tests that
follow, you will be instructed to place the key start switch in the ON position. Vehicles with the
key type start switch have an OFF, ON, and START position. There are many vehicles with EMS
that have a start switch with an OFF, HEAT, and START position. This second type of start
switch will not have an ON position. The disconnect switch and the key start switch have the same
ON position. The disconnect switch and the key start switch have the same OFF position for the
second type of starting system.

The disconnect switch and the parking brake must be in the ON position during all these tests.

Test 1

• Key Start Switch ON

• Test Switch ON

• Engine OFF

Expected Results

1. All indicators flash.

2. The action lamp flashes.

3. The action alarm must be OFF.

If the results do not match the expected results, refer to Diagnostic System Procedures. Find the
procedure for correcting the unexpected result.

Test 2

• Key Start Switch ON

• Test Switch OFF

• Engine OFF

Expected Results

1. The action lamp must flash.

2. The action alarm must be OFF.

3. Indicators on the operator monitor panel must match the positions in Table 1.

Often when problems with the charging system are being investigated, the alternator is not the
problem. If a low battery condition is present, test the batteries first. See Special Instruction,
SEHS7633, "Battery Test Procedure" for more information. If the engine cranks slowly, then test
the starting system. See Service Magazine, SEPD0020, "Testing The Starter On The Engine" for
more information.

If a warning indicator for the charging system is ON, see Service Magazine, SEBD1751,
"Difference Between Alternator Indicator In Electronic Monitoring System (EMS) and Low
Voltage Indicator In Operating Monitoring System (OMS)".

Note: Severely discharged batteries can cause low system voltage. Severely discharged batteries
can occur even while the engine is running above idle and the alternator is working properly.
Proper low engine idle is also important.

Test Step 1. DETERMINE THE ALTERNATOR EXCITATION METHOD

A. Check the rear of the alternator to determine the method of excitation. See Table 1 to verify
the proper alternator excitation.

Expected Result:

Test method 1: These alternators have a "1", "REG", or "D+" terminal.

Test method 2: These alternators are self-excited.

Test method 3: These alternators have an "IG" terminal.

Results:

• Method 1 - The alternator has a "1", "REG", or "D+" terminal. Proceed to test step 2.

• Method 2 - The alternator is self-excited. Proceed to test step 4.

• Method 3 - The alternator has an "IG" terminal. Proceed to test step 3.

Test Step 2. CHECK THE RESISTANCE IN THE EXCITATION CIRCUIT

A. Turn the key start switch to the ON position.

B. Verify voltage at the excitation terminal. Connect the red lead from a multimeter to the
excitation terminal. Connect the black lead to a ground source (alternator case ground).

C. Read the voltage that is shown on the multimeter.

Expected Result:

The voltage reads at least .2 DCV.

Results:

• YES - The voltage reads .2 DCV or more. The excitation circuit is correct. Proceed to test
step 4.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 15

• NO - The voltage is less than .2 DCV. There is a problem in the wiring harness to the
alternator or a poor electrical connection. Correct the problem and operate the machine.
Watch for a recurrence of the problem.

STOP

Test Step 3. CHECK THE RESISTANCE IN THE EXCITATION CIRCUIT


(CONTINUED)

Note: This step is only for alternators with external excitation when the terminal for excitation is
labeled "IG".

A. Turn the key start switch to the ON position.

B. Verify voltage at the excitation terminal. Connect the red lead from a multimeter to the
excitation terminal. Connect the black test lead to a ground source (alternator case ground).

Note: For G3B, K3A, and L3A alternators, insert a 7X-1710 Multimeter Probe Group into
the rear of the middle wire in the connector. See Illustration 1 below. Insert the probe's
spoon lead between the seal and the wire that surrounds the wire and the outer shell of the
connector. Do not insert the probe between the wire insulation and the black seal. This
terminal (IG) is the terminal for excitation.

Illustration 1 g00496660

• NO - The voltage is less than system voltage. Proceed to test step 7.

Test Step 5. CHECK THE OPERATION OF THE ALTERNATOR

A. The voltmeter remains connected between the "B+" terminal and the case of the alternator.

B. Start the machine. Set the throttle to at least 75 percent. Read the voltage on the voltmeter.
Make a note of the voltage that was measured.

Expected Result:

The voltage measurement is greater than the voltage that was recorded in the previous test step
"Check The System Voltage".

Results:

• VOLTAGE HIGHER - The voltage measurement is greater than the voltage that was
observed in the previous test step "Check The System Voltage". The voltage is also less
than the maximum voltage that is listed in the specifications for the alternator. The
alternator is partially charging the battery. Proceed to test step 6.

• VOLTAGE TOO HIGH - The voltage measurement is greater than the voltage that was
observed in the previous test step "Check The System Voltage". The voltage is also greater
than the maximum voltage that is listed in the specifications for the alternator. The
alternator is over charging. Proceed to test step 19.

• VOLTAGE LOWER - The voltage is not higher than the voltage that was observed in the
previous test step. Proceed to test step 7.

Test Step 6. TEST THE ALTERNATOR OUTPUT

operate the analyzer, refer to Tool Operating Manual, SEHS7768, "Using the 6V-2150".

C. Start the engine and set the throttle to at least 75 percent. Turn ON all electrical accessories
for the remainder of this test step. Allow the engine to run for at least 3 minutes before
continuing.

D. Measure the voltage between the "B+" terminal of the alternator and the case of the
alternator. Make a note of the voltage that was measured. Perform the next measurement
immediately.

E. Measure the voltage across the battery. Put the red lead on the positive terminal of the
battery. Put the black lead on the negative terminal of the battery. Make a note of the
voltage that was measured.

Expected Result:

The voltage at the battery should be less than the voltage at the alternator. On systems that are 12
DCV, the difference in voltages should not be more than 1 DCV. On systems that are 24 DCV, the
difference should not be more than 2 DCV.

Results:

• YES - The voltage at the battery is less than the voltage at the alternator. Also, the
difference in voltages is less than 1 DCV for 12 DCV systems and the difference is less than
2 DCV for 24 DCV systems. The wiring that is related to the alternator is correct at this
time.

Repair: There is an internal problem with the alternator. Repair or replace the alternator.

STOP

• NO - The voltage at the battery is less than the voltage at the alternator. However, the
difference in voltages is greater than 1 DCV for 12 DCV systems and the difference is
greater than 2 DCV for 24 DCV systems. Proceed to test step 20.

Test Step 20. TEST THE POSITIVE SIDE OF THE CHARGING CIRCUIT

A. Measure the voltage between the frame of the machine and the "B+" terminal of the
alternator. Make a note of the voltage that was measured. Perform the next measurement
immediately.

B. Measure the voltage between the frame of the machine and the positive terminal of the
battery. Make a note of the voltage that was measured.

Expected Result:

The voltage difference does not exceed 1 DCV on 24 DCV systems or 0.5 DCV on 12 DCV
systems.

Results:

• VOLTAGE OK - ALT. WITHOUT IG/S TERM. - The voltage difference does not
exceed the tolerance. The positive circuit is good.

Repair: There is an internal problem with the alternator. Repair or replace the alternator.

STOP

• VOLTAGE EXCESSIVE - ALL ALT. - The voltage difference exceeds the tolerance.

Repair: There is high resistance in the positive side of the charging circuit that is caused by
one of the following conditions:

◦ An electrical connection has loosened.

◦ An electrical connection has corroded.

◦ The main relay has failed.

◦ A circuit breaker has failed.


Correct the problem. Exit this procedure and retest the alternator charging system.

STOP

• VOLTAGE OK - ALT. WITH IG/S TERM. - The voltage difference does not exceed the
tolerance. The positive circuit is good. Proceed to test step 21.

Test Step 21. ALTERNATOR OVERCHARGING TEST

A. Start the engine and set the throttle to at least 75 percent.

B. Measure the voltage between the sense terminal (S) and/or the "IG" terminal to the case of
the alternator.

Expected Result:

The voltage at the "S" terminal and/or "IG" terminal is above the specification.

Results:

• YES - The measured voltage exceeds the specification. There is an internal malfunction in
the alternator. See the appropriate service manual for the alternator to test the internal
components and connections.

Connector Locations
SMCS - 7553-546-WW

The locations of the components of the MSS will vary between machines. If the MSS was
installed by a Caterpillar dealer, consult the installation instructions for component locations. If
the MSS was an attachment that was installed at the factory, consult the electrical schematic for
that machine.

For each output use a twisted wire pair, all the way between the MSS3s ECM and the load
(recommended).

Note: There is a need to manage shared returns, connecting the returns together as close to the
ECM as possible. Failure to do so may result in difficulty reading keys due to electromagnetic
interference.

• The 2A drivers share a separate return.

• The 300mA drivers share a separate return.

• The 20mA LED drivers share a separate return.

• The exciter coil has a dedicated return that is not to be shared.

Use the Machine Electrical Schematic, Parts Manual, and Operation and Maintenance Manual to
locate electrical components and connectors.

The following information is a guide to reading the tables on the back of the Electrical Schematic.

• The "Component Location" table uses a numeric value for each component on the machine.
Cross reference the machine location number from the table to the corresponding number in
the machine views graphic.

• The "Harness Connector Location" table uses a numeric value for each connector on the
machine. Cross reference the connector number from the table to the corresponding number
in the machine views graphic.

Diagnostic Trouble Codes


SMCS - 7569

Module Identifier (MID)


The electronic control module that has detected a failure is identified by the Module Identifier
(MID). Each electronic control module on the machine has a unique MID. The MID for the ECM
of the Machine Security System is 436.

Component Identifier (CID)


The Component Identifier (CID) is a code that describes a possible failed component.

Failure Mode Identifier (FMI)


The codes for the Failure Mode Identifier (FMI) are defined by the Society of Automotive
Engineers (SAE). The list of codes in Table 1 is used on Caterpillar ® products.

Table 1
Descriptions of the Failure Mode Identifiers (FMI)
FMI No. Description of Failure
00 “Data is valid, but above normal operating range”
01 “Data valid, but below normal operating range”
02 “Data erratic, intermittent, or incorrect”
03 “Voltage above normal or shorted high”
04 “Voltage below normal or shorted low”
05 “Current below normal or open circuit”
06 “Current above normal or grounded circuit”
07 “Mechanical system not responding properly”

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 7

08 “Abnormal frequency, pulse width, or period”


09 “Abnormal update”
10 “Abnormal rate of change”
11 “Failure mode is not identifiable.”
12 “Bad device or component”
13 “Out of calibration”

Detailed FMI Explanations


FMI 00 - “Data Valid But Above Normal Operating Range.” Every electronic control system
sets a high limit for the expected operating range of the signal. The limit includes signals that are
above the expected range. A sensor that is still working but sending a signal above the expected
limit will cause an FMI 00 to be stored.

Some possible causes of FMI 00 are listed here:

• Signal above normal (High pressure or high temperature)

• Calibration is needed. FMI 13 is the preferred code.

For example, a certain PWM sensor is expected to generate a valid signal over 80 percent duty
cycle. If the sensor generates a signal of 81 percent duty cycle, the sensor is still working but the
signal is above the expected signal limits.

FMI 01 - “Data Valid But Below Normal Operating Range.” Every electronic control system
sets a low limit for the expected operating range of the signal. The limit includes signals that are
under the expected range. A low engine oil pressure signal from a working sensor could produce
this FMI. A sensor that is still working but sending a signal below the expected limit will cause an
FMI 01 to be stored.

Some possible causes of FMI 01 are listed here:

• The signal is below normal. (The voltage, pressure, or temperature is low.)

• Timing is retarded

For example, a certain PWM sensor is not expected to generate a PWM signal below 5 percent
duty cycle even with zero air pressure. If the sensor generates a 4 percent duty cycle signal with
the engine shutdown, the sensor is still working but below the expected signal limits.

FMI 02 - “Data Erratic, Intermittent Or Incorrect.” Signal data that is received from a
component is valid. The data that is received from the component has become intermittent or
erratic. Data can be correct sometimes and the data may be incorrect at other times. The
communication that occurs between electronic controls also relates to this condition.

Some possible causes of FMI 02 are listed here:

• Loose connections in switches, harness, and connectors

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 7

• Intermittent/erratic signal

• Programmed data has changed

• Noisy signal

• The signal is out of range. FMI 00 or FMI 01 is the preferred code

• A failed power or ground connection to the ECM

• Failed ECM

FMI 03 - “Voltage Above Normal Or Shorted High.” The voltage that is received from a
component is higher than the expected value that is identified by the CID. FMI 03 most often
relates to a signal circuit.

Some possible components that can cause an FMI 03 are listed here:

• The sensor (switch)

• The harness

• The related electronic control

Some possible causes of an FMI 03 are listed here:

• A sensor output that is not related to the duty cycle is stuck at the maximum output of the
sensor

• A harness that has the sensor signal wire shorted to any voltage that is greater than the
voltage of the sensor power supply

• A sensor signal wire is open in the machine harness between the sensor and the control.
When a sensor has been disconnected from an electronic control, the input circuit voltage is
normally pulled up to a positive level

• A sensor signal contact of a failed control that is internally shorted to a positive voltage
source

• A failed control believes that a failure exists in a circuit that is working correctly. This
failure is unlikely

FMI 04 - “Voltage Below Normal Or Shorted Low.” The voltage that is received from a
component is lower than the expected value that is identified by the CID. FMI 04 most often
relates to a signal circuit. FMI 04 is similar to FMI 06. FMI 04 is sometimes used in the place of
FMI 06.

Some possible causes of FMI 04 are listed here:

• The sensor

• The harness

• The related electronic control

Some possible causes of FMI 04 are listed here:

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 7

• A sensor output that is not related to the duty cycle is stuck at the minimum output of the
sensor

• The signal wire is shorted to ground in the harness

• Electronic control has an internal short to ground on the connector contact of the signal
input

FMI 05 - Current Below Normal Or Open Circuit. The current of the monitored circuit is
below normal. The low current can results from an open circuit. FMI 05 is related to an output of a
driver circuit.

Some possible causes of FMI 05 are listed here:

• Open circuit or poor harness connection

• High-resistance circuit in a component (relay coil)

• Component in the open position (switch)

FMI 06 - “Current Above Normal Or Grounded Circuit.” The current of the monitored circuit
is above normal. This code is most commonly caused by a circuit that is shorted to ground. This
code is similar to an FMI 04. FMI 06 is sometimes used in the place of FMI 04. FMI 06 can be
related to an output of a driver circuit.

Some possible causes of FMI 06 are listed here:

• A short to ground in the harness

• Low resistance (failure) in component coil (relay)

• Electronic control has an internal short to ground on the connector contact of signal input

FMI 07 - “Mechanical System Not Responding Properly.” A mechanical system does not
respond in the expected manner when electrical commands are received from the electronic
control.

For example, a sluggish solenoid valve causes a slow shift.

Some possible causes of FMI 07 are listed here:

• Improper response of a component

• Stuck component

• Component failure

• The engine is shut down

• Improper machine operation

FMI 08 - “Abnormal Frequency, Pulse Width Or Period. ”The frequency of the signal or the
width of a given signal pulse is not in the expected range. This code can also relate to a failed
output circuit of a sensor or an open output circuit of a sensor.

Note: The period is the time in seconds for one cycle at a given frequency.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 7

Some possible causes of FMI 08 are listed here:

• Intermittent connection of a signal circuit

• Misfire

• Noisy signals that are caused by a nearby radio or magnetic field

FMI 09 - “Abnormal Update.” This code relates to the communication that occurs between
electronic controls via a data link. This code occurs when given control is unable to receive
required information from another control via the data link. This code indicates that the
communication link to the ECM has been lost for more than 5 seconds. The ECM is not
responding.

Some possible causes of FMI 09 are listed here:

• Loose connections in the harness or switches

• Failed power or ground connections to the ECM

• No communication is available on the data link

• Abnormal update because of a mismatch of software between electronic controls

• Failure of the electronic control

FMI 10 "Abnormal Rate of Change" - This code relates to a signal that changes too fast or too
slow. The rate of change is outside of the expected limit.

Some possible causes of FMI 10 are listed here:

• The component has failed

• Poor connections in the circuit.

• The medium or component that is being monitored has failed.

• An ECM has failed. ECM failure is unlikely.

FMI 11 - “Failure Mode Not Identifiable.” This code is used when an electronic control
determines that multiple Failure Mode Identifiers are responsible for a single failure.

Some possible causes of FMI 11 are listed here:

• Mechanical failure

• Machine damage to multiple circuits

FMI 12 - “Bad Device Or Component.” The code is used for the situations that are listed here:
The code is used when an electronic control does not receive an expected response from another
electronic control via the data link. The code is also used when an electronic control receives an
expected response from another electronic control but the response is not valid. This condition is
also used when an electronic control is expected to send data periodically and the control does not
send the data.

Some possible causes of FMI 12 are listed here:

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 6 of 7

• Control failure

• Failure of the data link

• One or more controls with the incorrect software

FMI 13 - “Out Of Calibration.” This code is used when the electrical signal of a given
mechanical condition is not within the expected limits of the electronic control. The sensor needs
calibration, adjustment, or replacement.

The possible causes of FMI 13 are listed here:

• Calibration is required

• Data out of range

Troubleshooting Procedures
Go to the procedure that corresponds to the CID and FMI that has been indicated. These
procedures are used only for maintenance events (CID and FMI) that originate from the MSS.
These procedures are used for CID's that have an MID of 436.

If the MID is not for the MSS, see the Module Identifier chart on the Electrical System Schematic
for the machine that is being serviced. Once you have determined the electronic control modules
that detected the event, refer to the Service Manual for that control for troubleshooting
information. The Service Manual modules for each control are part of the machine Service
Manual.

Engine Does Not Crank and Status Indicator Is Green


SMCS - 7631-035

The green LED of the status indicator informs the operator that the machine security system
(MSS3s) ECM has recognized a valid key. The problem may be unrelated to the MSS. The source
of the problem that is preventing an engine start can come from several sources. Ensure that all of
the standard requirements for starting the machine have been met. A few examples of the
requirements are listed here:

• Interlocks in the operator seat

• Hydraulic interlocks

• Gear of the machine

• Fuel level

This troubleshooting procedure will eliminate the MSS as a source of the starting problem.

Note: The wires that are identified in this procedure are not present on every machine. If the wire
that is identified in this procedure is not present, proceed to the next Test Step.

Engine Does Not Start and Status Indicator Is Continuously


Red
SMCS - 7631-035

A solid Red LED in the status indicator indicates that the MSS has not recognized a valid
electronic key for that machine. This condition can be caused by several problems. One or more of
the problems that are listed here could be responsible for this condition. If the electronic key has
been damaged, the MSS will not disarm and the machine will not start. If a problem exists in the
exciter coil, the MSS will be unable to read the electronic key. If the wiring for the exciter coil is
damaged, the MSS will be unable to read the electronic key.

Note: Ensure that you have only one electronic key near the exciter coil when the MSS reads
the key. Do not have more than one electronic key is near the exciter coil. If multiple
electronic keys are present, the MSS3s ECM will not be able to read the key and the
machine will not start.

Cat Data Link - Test


SMCS - 1408-038

Theft Deterrent Module ECM


The following is a list of codes that are associated with the Cat® Data Link of the machine.

Table 1
Theft Deterrent Module ECM (MID 436)
DTC Code Description System Response
The service tool cannot detect the ECM.
248-12 Cat Data Link malfunction
Communication failures are indicated by another ECM.

Each Cat Data Link circuit is an input and output of select electronic control modules. The data
link is designed to carry communications between the electronic control modules. The data link is
not a visible component. The data link consists of internal control circuits and the connecting
harness wiring.

This diagnostic code is recorded when the ECM cannot send information, or the ECM does not
receive expected information from the data link (wire 892-BR(Brown)and wire 893-GN(Green)or
wire 944-OR(Orange)and wire 945-BR(Brown)).

The diagnostic code is caused by abnormal communications between the ECM and a specific
ECM module via the Data Link. If a diagnostic code is present, correct the related diagnostic code.

Possible causes for an FMI 12 diagnostic code are:

• There is an open circuit or a short circuit on the data link.

• There is a failure of the hardware for data link.

The 248-9 DTC is used by the ECM as a companion code and indicates a Cat Data Link problem.
This DTC indicates that the ECM has lost all communication with another ECM. This companion
code is simultaneously activated with the 590-9 DTC.

Note: The 248-9 DTC will never be activated by the ECM as a stand-alone diagnostic code.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 4

Note: The locations of the components of the MSS will vary between machines. If the MSS was
installed by a Caterpillar dealer, consult the installation instructions for component locations. If
the MSS was an attachment that was installed at the factory, consult the electrical schematic for
that machine.

Diagnostic Trouble Code Procedure


Note: Prior to beginning this procedure, inspect the harness connectors that are involved in this
circuit. Poor connections can often be the cause of a problem in an electrical circuit. Verify that all
connections in the circuit are clean, secure, and in good condition. Check the wiring for pinch
points or abrasions. Look for and repair areas that indicate wires are exposed. If a problem with a
connection is found, correct the problem and verify that this diagnostic code is active before
performing a troubleshooting procedure.

1. Identify the active FMI code associated with the components.

2. Determine which code is present and use the list below to determine which procedure to
follow.

This information will assist in detecting problems with connectors and with wiring. If a problem is
found, correct the condition and verify that the problem is resolved.

Disconnecting and reconnecting connectors sometimes resolve intermittent electrical problems.


Check for diagnostic codes immediately before disconnecting a connector. Also check for
diagnostic codes after reconnecting the connector. If the status of a diagnostic code is changed due
to disconnecting and reconnecting a connector, there are several possible reasons. The likely
reasons are loose terminals, improperly crimped terminals, moisture, corrosion, and inadequate
mating of a connection.

Important Safety Information

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 8

Work safely. Most accidents that involve product operation, maintenance, and repair are caused by
failure to observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by
recognizing potentially hazardous situations before an accident occurs.

A person must be alert to potential hazards. This person should also have the necessary training,
skills, and tools to perform these functions properly.

Safety precautions and warnings are provided in this instruction and on the product. If these
hazard warnings are not heeded, bodily injury or death could occur to you or to other persons.
Caterpillar cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard.

Therefore, the warnings in this publication and the warnings that are on the product are not all
inclusive. If any of the following are not recommended by Caterpillar, but are used, ensure the
safety of all people involved:

• A tool

• A procedure

• A work method

• An operating technique

Ensure that the product will not be damaged or made unsafe by the operation, lubrication,
maintenance, or the repair procedures that are used.

Guidelines
• Use a 1U-5804 Crimp Tool (12-GA TO 18-GA) to service Deutsch HD and DT connectors.
Never solder the terminals onto the wires. Refer to Tool Operating Manual, SEHS9615,
"Servicing Deutsch HD and DT Style Connectors".

• Use a 147-6456 Wedge Removal Tool to remove wedges from DT connectors. Never use a
screwdriver to pry a wedge from a connector.

• Use a breakout harness for a voltmeter probe or a test light. Never break the insulation of a
wire to access to a circuit for measurements.

• If a wire is cut, install a new terminal for the repair.

Tests
Check Connectors for Moisture and Corrosion

Inspect all wiring harnesses. Ensure that the routing of the wiring harness allows the wires to enter
the face of each connector at a perpendicular angle. Otherwise, the wire will deform the seal bore.
This deformation will create a path for the entrance of moisture. Verify that the seals for the wires
are sealing correctly.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022

Illustration 1 g03870168

(1) Former seal design

(2) Current seal design

Illustration 2 g03870171

(3) Seal for a three-pin connector (typical example)

The plug end of the DT connector has a seal at the end of the connector. This seal has been
improved on black connectors to help prevent slipping. Additionally, this seal is replaceable. This
improvement will help keep moisture and dirt from entering the connector.

The current seal design (2) is not interchangeable with the former design (1). The receptacle has
also changed to the new colors.

1. Inspect all wiring harnesses. Ensure that the routing of the wiring harness allows the wires
to enter the face of each connector at a perpendicular angle. Otherwise, the wire will deform

the seal bore. This deformation will create a path for the entrance of moisture. Verify that
the seals for the wires are sealing correctly.

2. Disconnect the suspect connector and inspect the connector seal. Ensure that the seals are in
good condition. If necessary, replace the connector.

3. Thoroughly inspect the connectors for evidence of moisture entry.

Some minor seal abrasion on connector seals is normal. Minor seal abrasion will not allow
the entry of moisture. If moisture or corrosion is evident in the connector, the source of the
moisture entry must be found and repaired. If the source of the moisture entry is not
repaired, the problem will recur. Simply drying the connector will not fix the problem.
Check the following items for the possible moisture entry path:

◦ Missing seals

◦ Improperly installed seals

◦ Nicks in exposed insulation

◦ Improperly mated connectors

Moisture can also travel to a connector through the inside of a wire. If moisture is found in a
connector, thoroughly check the connector harness for damage. Also check other connectors that
share the harness for moisture.

Expected Result

The harness wiring, connectors, and seals are in good condition. There is no evidence of moisture
in the connectors.

Results

OK - The harness wiring, connectors, and seals are in good condition. Proceed to "Check the
Wires for Damage to the Insulation".

Not OK - A problem has been found with the harness or the connectors.

Repair

Repair the connectors or the wiring, as required. Ensure that all of the seals are properly in place.
Ensure that the connectors have been reattached. If corrosion is evident on the pins, sockets or the
connector, use only denatured alcohol to remove the corrosion. Use a cotton swab or a soft brush
to remove the corrosion. If moisture was found in the connectors, run the engine for several
minutes and check again for moisture. If moisture reappears, the moisture is wicking into the
connector. Even if the moisture entry path is repaired, replacing the wires may be necessary.
Verify that the repair eliminates the problem.

STOP

Check the Wires for Damage to the Insulation

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 8

1. Carefully inspect each wire for signs of abrasion, of nicks, and of cuts. Inspect the wires for
the following conditions:

◦ Exposed insulation

◦ Rubbing of a wire against the chassis

◦ Rubbing of a wire against a sharp point

2. Check all of the wiring harness fasteners to verify that the harness is properly secured. Also
check all of the fasteners to verify that the harness is not compressed. Pull back the harness
sleeves to check for a flattened portion of wire. A fastener that has been overtightened will
flatten the harness. This damages the wires that are inside the harness.

Expected Result

The wires are free of abrasion, of nicks, and of cuts and the harness is properly clamped.

Results

OK - The harness is OK. Proceed to "Inspect the Connector Terminals".

Not OK - There is damage to the harness.

Repair

Repair the wires or replace the wires, as required. Verify that the repair eliminates the problem.

STOP

Perform a Pull Test on Each Wire Terminal Connection

1. Ensure that the locking wedge for the connector is installed properly. Terminals cannot be
retained inside the connector if the locking wedge is not installed properly. Refer to
Illustration 2.

2. Perform the 45 N (10 lb) pull test on each wire.

Each terminal and each connector should easily withstand 45 N (10 lb) of tension and each
wire should remain in the connector body. This test checks whether the wire was properly
crimped in the terminal and whether the terminal was properly inserted into the connector.

Expected Result

Each terminal and each connector can withstand 45 N (10 lb) of pull and each wire remains in the
connector body.

Results

OK - All terminals pass the pull test. Proceed to "Check Individual Pin Retention into the Socket".

Not OK - A wire has been pulled from a terminal or a terminal has been pulled from the
connector.

Repair

Use the 1U-5804 Crimp Tool (12-GA TO 18-GA) to replace the terminal. Replace damaged
connectors, as required. Verify that the repair eliminates the problem.

STOP

Check Individual Pin Retention into the Socket

A. Verify that the sockets provide good retention for the pins. Disconnect the harness and insert a
new pin into each socket of the mating plug. Insert the pins one at a time. Check for a good grip
on the pin by the socket.

Expected Result

The sockets provide good retention for the new pin.

Results

OK - The terminals are OK. Proceed to "Check the Locking Mechanism of the Connectors".

Not OK - Terminals are damaged.

Wiring Harness (Open Circuit) - Test


SMCS - 1408-038

An open circuit is a failure of an electrical circuit that results in no flow of electrical current. An
open circuit can be caused by a broken wire within the circuit. Most often, an open circuit is
caused by a poor connection. An open circuit can also be caused by a failed connection in one of
the electrical connectors that is used in a circuit.

The following procedure is a way to check for an open or a poor connection in a circuit.

Wiring Harness (Short Circuit) - Test


SMCS - 1408-038

A short circuit is a failure of an electrical circuit that results in undesired electrical current.
Usually, a short circuit is a bypass of the circuit across a load. A short across the wires in a circuit
for a lamp produces too much current in the wires but no current at the lamp. The lamp is shorted
out. The resistance in a normal circuit can vary, but the resistance between a particular circuit and
other unrelated circuits is always greater than 5000 ohms. The following procedure explains the
test for a short circuit:

Connector Contact Description


SMCS - 1408-CY; 7553-WW

The decisions that the ECM makes are based on input data information and programming
parameters that have been flashed to the ECM memory. After the ECM receives the input
information, the ECM determines the correct response and sends an output signal to the
appropriate device. The internal input and output circuits of the ECM are connected to the
machine wiring harness by two contact connectors (J1 and J2).

Note: The ECM is not serviceable. If the ECM is damaged, the ECM must be replaced. The ECM
failure is unlikely. If the ECM failure is suspected, contact the Technical Communicator at a local
dealership for possible consultation with Caterpillar before replacing the ECM. Replace the ECM
only after all of the other possible causes of a particular problem have been investigated.

ECM Pull Up Voltage


To aid in diagnostics of certain electrical circuits, an internal "pull up voltage" is connected to the
ECM switch and sensor signal input contacts. An above normal voltage is internally connected to
the ECM signal input circuit through a resistor.

During normal operation, the switch or sensor signal will hold the circuit low or at a certain signal
amplitude. When circuit conditions such as a loss of power to the component, a disconnection, or
an open circuit, the ECM circuit will be puled high by the pull up voltage. The pull up voltage will
result in an above normal voltage condition at the ECM contact. As a result, the ECM will activate
an FMI 03 (voltage above normal) diagnostic code for the affected circuit.

The types of ECM input circuits that have pull up voltage present are:

• Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) sensor input circuits

• Switch to ground switch input circuits

• Active analog (voltage) input signal circuits

• Passive analog (resistance) input signal circuits

ECM Pull Down Voltage

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 3

In order to aid in diagnostics of electrical circuits controlled by the ECM, an internal "pull down
voltage" is connected to the ECM switch to battery input circuits.

During normal operation, the switch contacts that are allowing the connection to a voltage source
will hold the circuit high. When conditions like a loss of power to the switch supply, switch circuit
disconnection, or an open circuit, will allow the ECM circuit to be pulled low by the pull down
voltage. The pull down voltage will result in a below normal voltage condition at the ECM
contact. As a result, the ECM will activate an FMI 04 (voltage below normal) diagnostic code for
the affected circuit.

Inputs
The machine has several different types of input devices. The ECM receives machine status
information from the input devices. The ECM determines the correct output action that is needed
in order to control machine operations based on memory and software parameters. The machine
utilizes the following types of inputs: switch type and sensor type.

Switches provide signals to the switch inputs of the ECM. The possible outputs of a switch are
listed: an open signal, a grounded signal and + battery signal.

Sensors provide an electrical signal to the ECM that constantly changes. The sensor input to the
ECM can be one of several different types of electrical signals such as: pulse width modulated
(PWM) signals, voltage signals and frequency input signals. Refer to the correct pilot machine
schematic to verify each input to the ECM.

Outputs
The ECM sends electrical signals through the outputs. The outputs can create an action or the
outputs can provide information to the ECM. The ECM can send output signals to the system
components in one of several different electrical signal types such as: driver outputs, sinking
driver outputs, sensor power supply outputs and data link outputs. Refer to the correct pilot
machine schematic to verify each output to the ECM.

Input/Output
Communication between the ECM and the other control modules on the machine is conducted
over data link circuits. The data link circuits allow the sharing of information with other electronic
control modules. The data link circuits are bidirectional. The data link circuit allows the ECM to
send information and to receive information.

The ECM supports two types of data link systems.

• Cat® Data Link

• SAE J1939 Data Link

The two types of data links are the main structure for communication between all of the control
modules on the machine. More than one CAN data link system can be present on a machine.
Dedicated CAN data link circuits can be used for communication between specific controls on the
machine.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 3

Communication between the ECM and the other control modules on the machine are conducted
over the J1939 Data Link circuit. The J1939 Data Link circuit is connected to each control
module. The ECMs use the Cat Data Link to send and receive information from the Cat®
Electronic Technician (Cat ET) Service Tool.

A module identifier (MID) is assigned to each ECM on a machine. For example, the MID for the
Machine ECM is 299.

General Hazard Information


To prevent injury or death, all machines equipped with a Caterpillar PL522 or 523 system require
a warning label that is clearly posted in the cab.

This machine is equipped with a Caterpillar Product Link


communication device. When electric detonators are used, this
communication device should be deactivated within 12 m (40 ft) of a
blast site, or within the distance mandated under applicable legal
requirements. Failure to do so could cause interference with blasting
operations and result in serious injury or death.

To prevent possible personal injury during installation, removal, testing,


and adjustment of the Product Link system, use an approved access
system and appropriate fall protection to reach the intended location.
Do not climb on the machine.

The blast site is defined as the area that handles explosive material during loading. This includes
the perimeter that is formed by the loaded blast holes. If the machine is required to work within
12 m (40 ft) of a blast area, then the operator must take one of the following precautions:

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 3

• Disconnect the PL522 or 523 module from the power source by disconnecting the wiring
harness at the PL522 or 523 module.

• Temporarily remove the PL522 or 523 module from the machine.

• Add an ON/OFF switch in order to allow the PL522 or 523 module to be turned off from the
cab.

Consult your Caterpillar Dealer if there are any questions.

The following PL522 and 523 specifications are provided to aid in conducting hazard assessments
and ensuring compliance with all local regulations.

Product Link Transmitter Power - 0.747 to 1.738 Watts (varies with frequency)

Transmit Frequency Range - 824 to 849 MHz, 880 to 915 MHz, 1710 to 1785 MHz, 1850 to
1910 MHz

General Troubleshooting Information


Many Caterpillar machines have a published Electrical System Schematic that reflects a Product
Link installation. Refer to these schematics if a troubleshooting procedure instructs you to "Repair
the harness". Perform continuity checks and resistance checks at the connectors in order to locate a
failure in the harness. At a component connector, always check the ground circuit. Less than 5
ohms of resistance is required from the ground contacts to frame ground. A problem may be
incorrectly diagnosed, if an excessive resistance that is greater than 5 ohms is present in the
ground circuit. During a troubleshooting procedure, inspect all component and harness
connections before a component is replaced. If these connections are not clean and tight, the
connection may cause an electrical problem.

The problem can be permanent or the problem may be intermittent. Ensure that the wires are
pushed into the connectors completely. Make sure that the connections are tight before other tests
are performed. A failure of an electrical component may cause a failure of another component or a
failure may be caused by the failure of other components. Always attempt to find a failure. The
following test procedures are written for a technician with a working knowledge of electricity and
electronics. Correct the cause of a failure in the electrical system before you replace a component.

The test procedures that are found in Systems Operation, Troubleshooting, Testing and Adjusting
Manual are written for a technician that has a working knowledge of electricity and electronics.
Caterpillar recommends that the technician has a knowledge regarding the danger that is inherent
in electrical troubleshooting. Caterpillar recommends that the technician can measure voltage and
resistance with a multimeter. In some cases, a technician may perform checks of the electrical
circuits.

Consider the following guidelines before performing electronic troubleshooting procedures:

• Remove power.

• Before you read the resistance or continuity, lock out the test circuit with a tag.

• Isolate circuit branches for resistance or continuity checks in order to prevent reading
through components.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 3

• When reading a wire end to end and within a connector, read the test input pin to all
adjacent pins for shorts within the connector locking mechanism.

• Keep fingers and hands clear of test leads during all electrical checks in order to prevent
false indications.

Machine Security (Available in China Only)


Derate - Some machines can have the machine engine derated remotely by the owner of the machine.
The action causes the machine to operate much slower than normal. A warning is given before this
action occurs on the display with the machine lock icon and "security pending". When engine derate
has happened, the machine display shows the machine lock icon and "Security Enabled". The
operator should move the machine to a safe location, apply the parking brake, power the machine
down, notify the site supervisor, and your Cat dealer.

Disable - Some machines can be prevented from starting remotely by the owner of the machine.
When disabling has happened, the machine display shows the machine lock icon and "security
enabled". The operator should notify the site supervisor.

Tampering - Tampering with the Product Link can also result in engine "derating"or "disabling" of
the machine. To avoid "derating"or "disabling", prevent tampering with the Product Link. If, machine
diagnostics occur due to Product Link notify your site supervisor immediately to prevent derating or
disabling. An example of this situation is an antenna becoming damaged.

Note: The appropriate Monitor, Engine and Product Link software must be flashed to enable this
functionality. Not all machines support this function. Contact your Technical Service Representative
for additional details.

Event Code List


SMCS - 7569

Event codes alert the operator or the technician that an abnormal operating condition exists in one
of the machine systems.

When an Electronic Control Module (ECM) activates an event code, the operator or the technician
will be alerted by the Messenger. Most active events will be logged by the ECM. Some events are
active only. Active only events are not logged. The events that are active and the events that are
logged can be viewed with the following equipment:

• Messenger

• Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET)

Warning Levels
The ECM will assign a warning level to an active event code. Event codes are one of three levels.
The level represents the severity of the abnormal condition. Each warning level requires a specific
response from the operator. The warning levels and the required operator response are listed
below.

Warning Level 1

Warning level 1 alerts the operator that a machine system requires attention. The operator should
check the system condition or perform maintenance on the involved system at the earliest possible
time.

Warning Level 2

Warning level 2 requires changing the operation of the machine or performing a maintenance
procedure. Failure to correct the problem that caused this warning may damage the components
that are involved in the system.

Warning Level 3

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 3

Warning level 3 requires an immediate safe shutdown of the machine in order to avoid damage to
the machine or injury to personnel. The problem that caused the event must be corrected before
machine operation can resume.

Indications and System Response


Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) Service Tool

When an abnormal operating condition occurs, the status screen on the Cat ET indicates that there
is an active event.

Event codes are displayed on Cat ET in the following format:

EXXXX Description of the code

The "E" means that the code is an event code. The "XXXX" is a numeric identifier. The numeric
identifier is followed by a description of the code.

Active event codes are listed in ascending numerical order. The code with the lowest number is
listed first. The active event code is removed from the list when the condition is no longer present.

Logged Event Codes

Some event codes are logged in the ECM memory. Some event codes are active only. The logged
event codes are listed in chronological order. The most recent code is listed first.

A logged code is cleared from memory when one of the following conditions occur:

• The service technician manually clears the code.

• The code does not reoccur after a number of hours determined by each ECM.

• A new code is logged and there are already ten logged codes in memory. In this case, the
oldest logged code is cleared.

Note: Always clear logged event codes after investigating and correcting the problem which
generated the code.

List of Event Codes

The following table lists event codes and the recommended responses. Use the Cat ET service tool
in order to determine the event codes that are active or logged.

General Troubleshooting Information


Many Caterpillar machines have a published Electrical System Schematic that reflects a Product
Link installation. Refer to these schematics if a troubleshooting procedure instructs you to "Repair
the harness". Perform continuity checks and resistance checks at the connectors in order to locate a
failure in the harness. At a component connector, always check the ground circuit. Less than 5
ohms of resistance is required from the ground contacts to frame ground. A problem may be
incorrectly diagnosed, if an excessive resistance that is greater than 5 ohms is present in the
ground circuit. During a troubleshooting procedure, the user should inspect all component and
harness connections before a component is replaced. If these connections are not clean and tight,
the connection may cause an electrical problem.

The problem can be permanent or the problem may be intermittent. Ensure that the wires are
pushed into the connectors completely. Make sure that the connections are tight before other tests
are performed. A failure of an electrical component may cause a failure of another component or a
failure may be caused by the failure of other components. Always attempt to find a failure. The
following test procedures are written for a technician with a working knowledge of electricity and
electronics. The user should correct the cause of a failure in the electrical system before you
replace a component.

The test procedures that are found in Systems Operation, Troubleshooting, Testing and Adjusting
Manual are written for a technician that has a working knowledge of electricity and electronics.
Caterpillar recommends that the electrician has a knowledge regarding the danger that is inherent
in electrical troubleshooting. Caterpillar recommends that the technician can measure voltage and
resistance with a multimeter. In some cases, a technician may perform checks of the electrical
circuits. Consider the following guidelines before performing electronic troubleshooting
procedures:

• Remove power.

• Before you read the resistance or continuity, lock out the test circuit with a tag.

• Isolate circuit branches for resistance or continuity checks in order to prevent reading
through components.

• When reading a wire end to end and within a connector, read the test input pin to all
adjacent pins for shorts within the connector locking mechanism.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 3

• Look for readings of high resistance during continuity checks. High resistance could
indicate damage or corrosion in the circuit.

• Keep fingers and hands clear of test leads during all electrical checks in order to prevent
false indications.

Average Wireless Communications Error Count - An indication of the number of errors


occurring in the communication traffic between the PL121 and the satellite. This number must be
at or near zero in order for the Product Link to successfully transmit.

Communication Satellite Identification Number - The actual identification number of the


satellite that the Product Link is attempting to communicate with.

Communications Modem Signal to Noise Ratio - A measure of the amount of noise in the
communication signal between the PL121 and the satellite. The higher the number, the better the
chances are of the PL121 successfully transmitting a message. On average, a signal-to-noise level
of 7.5 or higher is required to successfully transmit a message, although communications
sometimes succeed with lower numbers.

Communications Modem Signal Quality - A general indication of the quality of the


communication link between the PL121 and the satellite. On average, a signal quality of 50% or
higher is required to successfully transmit a message.

Reporting Interval Erratic


SMCS - 7606-038-RPT

System Operation Description:

There are problems that could be reported with the Product Link system but the problems are not
caused by the Product Link system. The problem can be described as the intervals between reports
are erratic. This section contains steps that are used to determine the possible cause. Check for
active diagnostic codes for the Product Link. Correct any diagnostic codes before proceeding. The
following items should be visually inspected for damage: PL121SR radio, module, antenna and
cables. Verify that there are no loose connections.

The Product Link system depends on several communication links in order to transfer data from
the machine to the office. The following procedures assume that these communication links are
operating properly. The proper communication links are listed below:

• The satellite network for VHF communications is operational in the geographic area of
concern. The network is operational when messages can travel to the satellite and the
messages can travel to the earth and Caterpillar.

• The Product Link system is correctly configured to communicate on the network for VHF
communications.

• The worldwide network of Caterpillar's computers is passing messages to software for the
Caterpillar Equipmentmanager (EM).

• The Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) is configured properly and the software is
functioning.

The PL300 module or the PL121SR radio should not be replaced without verifying that these
issues have been investigated. Contact your Caterpillar Technical Communicator for aid in
resolving these issues.

Test Step 1. ACCESS THE PRODUCT LINK THROUGH THE CAT ET SERVICE TOOL.

Event Code List


SMCS - 7569

Event codes alert the operator or the technician that an abnormal operating condition exists in one
of the machine systems.

When an Electronic Control Module (ECM) activates an event code, the operator or the technician
will be alerted by the Messenger. Most active events will be logged by the ECM. Some events are
active only. Active only events are not logged. The events that are active and the events that are
logged can be viewed with the following equipment:

• Messenger

• Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET)

Warning Levels
The ECM will assign a warning level to an active event code. Event codes are one of three levels.
The level is according to the severity of the abnormal condition. Each warning level requires a
specific response from the operator. The warning levels and the required operator response are
listed below.

Warning Level 1

Warning level 1 alerts the operator that a machine system requires attention. The operator should
check that the involved system condition or the operator should perform maintenance on the
involved system at the earliest possible time.

Warning Level 2

Warning level 2 requires changing the operation of the machine or performing a maintenance
procedure. Failure to correct a problem that caused this warning may result in damage to the
components involved in the system.

Warning Level 2S

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 3

Warning level 2S requires an immediate change in machine operation in order to avoid possible
damage to the system.

Warning Level 3

Warning level 3 requires an immediate safe shutdown of the machine in order to avoid damage to
the machine or injury to personnel around the machine. The problem that caused the event must be
corrected before machine operation can resume.

Indications and System Response


Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) Service Tool

When an abnormal operating condition occurs, the status screen on the Cat ET indicates that there
is an active event.

Event codes are displayed on Cat ET in the following format:

EXXXX Description of the code

The "E" means that the code is an event code. The "XXXX" is a numeric identifier. The numeric
identifier is followed by a description of the code.

Active event codes are listed in ascending numerical order. The code with the lowest number is
listed first. The active event code is removed from the list when the condition is no longer present.

Logged Event Codes

Some event codes are logged in the ECM memory. Some event codes are active only. The logged
event codes are listed in chronological order. The most recent code is listed first.

A logged code is cleared from memory when one of the following conditions occur:

• The service technician manually clears the code.

• The code does not reoccur for 1000 hours.

• A new code is logged and there are already ten logged codes in memory. In this case, the
oldest logged code is cleared.

Note: Always clear logged event codes after investigating and correcting the problem which
generated the code.

List of Event Codes


The following table lists event codes and the recommended responses. Use the Cat ET service tool
in order to determine the event codes that are active or logged.

MID 122 - CID 1251 - FMI 03


SMCS - 1406-038

Conditions Which Generate This Code:

The Product Link module tracks the machine operating hours for reporting to the office. The
Alternator R-Terminal signal is used to detect when the machine is operating. If the input
continually receives a voltage signal that is above normal, then machine operation cannot be
detected. If the input continually receives a voltage signal that is above normal, the reported
Service Meter Hours (SMU) would be inaccurate.

Test Step 1. CHECK THE R-TERMINAL CABLING FOR SHORT TO BATTERY.

A. Disconnect the Product Link cable (P1) from the Product Link module.

B. Measure the resistance from the Alternator R-terminal input J1-4 (403MC9-GN-18 to
battery (J1-1).

Expected Result:

The resistance should be greater than 5000 ohms.

Results:

• OK - The Product Link harness is likely correct. Proceed to Test Step 2.

• NOT OK - The Product Link cable has a probable short to battery.

Repair: Repair the cable and verify that the fault has been removed.

STOP

Test Step 2. CHECK THE PRODUCT LINK HARNESS FOR A SHORT TO A VOLTAGE
SOURCE.

A. Disconnect the Product Link cable (P1) from the Product Link module.

B. Start the engine.

C. Measure the Alternator R-Terminal input (J1-4) to verify that there is an 11 VDC to 32
VDC square-wave from 0 kHz to 2 kHz. Also, a steady DC voltage equivalent to the battery
should be present.

Expected Result:

The Alternator R-Terminal input does not measure at a steady DC voltage equivalent to the
battery voltage.

Results:

• OK - The signal is an 11 VDC to 32 VDC square-wave from 0kHz to 2 kHz or a steady DC


voltage equivalent to the battery present. The Product Link harness is likely not faulty.
Proceed to Test Step 3.

• NOT OK - The Product Link cable has a possible short to a DC voltage source other than
battery voltage.

Repair: Repair the cable and verify that the fault has been removed.

STOP

Test Step 3. CHECK THE MACHINE ALTERNATOR.

A. Disconnect the Product Link machine cable from the alternator.

B. Start the engine.

C. Measure the Alternator R-Terminal to verify that there is 11 VDC to 32 VDC square-wave
from 0 kHz to 2 kHz. There should not be a steady DC voltage equivalent to the battery
present.

Expected Result:

The alternator R-Terminal should be an 11 VDC to 32 VDC square-wave from 0 kHz to 2 kHz.

Results:

• OK - The alternator R-Terminal is an 11 VDC to 32 VDC square-wave from 0 kHz to 2


kHz. Proceed to Test Step 4.

• NOT OK - The alternator R-Terminal is not an 11 VDC to 32 VDC square-wave from 0


kHz to 2 kHz.

D. Determine if "CID 1251 FMI 03" diagnostic code is present by using the Caterpillar
Electronic Technician (Cat ET).

Expected Result:

A "CID 1251 FMI 03" diagnostic code is present.

Results:

• YES - The problem has not been corrected. It is unlikely that the ECM is faulty.

General Information
SMCS - 7309

The air conditioning system is a closed circuit that uses the refrigerant, which is under pressure, to
cool the operator compartment.

• The five components of the expansion valve system are the compressor, the condenser coil,
the receiver-dryer, the expansion valve and the evaporator coil.

• The six components of the manual orifice tube system are the compressor, the condenser
coil, the accumulator, the dryer, the orifice tube and the evaporator coil.

Note: Some orifice tube systems use an accumulator with a desiccant instead of a separate dryer.

Identifying the Air Conditioning System


SMCS - 1808; 7320; 7322

The type of air conditioning system must be identified before the system is serviced. The
refrigerant must be identified so that the correct service manual can be selected.

Illustration 1 g00649373

(1) Compressor block fittings

(2) Charging Ports

By examining charging ports (2), you can determine if the air conditioning system contains R-12
refrigerant.

If the machine has R-12 charging ports, a tag should identify the amount of refrigerant that is
needed in the air conditioning system. The tag will be located inside the cab or near the
compressor.

R-12 air conditioning systems should contain Air Conditioning Mineral Oil.

The compressor is driven by the engine. A belt connects the engine to the clutch and pulley
assembly (2). The pulley assembly is located on the clutch. The drive plate (3) is fastened to the
shaft of the compressor. The clutch and pulley assembly (2) turns on the bearing (5). The clutch

and pulley assembly (2) are not connected to the shaft (4). The electric current from the thermostat
controls a magnetic field in the coil assembly (6) .

The magnetic field pulls the drive plate (3) against the clutch and pulley assembly (2). The clutch
and the pulley assembly (2) turns the shaft (4) that operates the compressor. When the current to
the coil assembly (6) is stopped, the magnetic field is removed. This allows the drive plate (3) to
move away from the clutch and pulley assembly (2). The clutch and the pulley assembly (2) will
turn freely on the bearing (5). The sequence of connecting and disconnecting the pulley to the
compressor shaft (4) is called compressor cycling. The compressor cycling is controlled by the
thermostat. The thermostat is controlled by the capillary tube, which is installed between the fins
of the evaporator coil.

Illustration 2 g00650466

Typical Condenser

When the refrigerant leaves the compressor, the refrigerant is a vapor. The temperature of the
refrigerant is high and the pressure of the refrigerant is high when the refrigerant leaves the
compressor. The increase in pressure of the refrigerant causes an increase in temperature of the
refrigerant. The refrigerant vapor leaves the compressor and the refrigerant enters the condenser
(1) .

The refrigerant must be converted into a liquid that has high temperature and high pressure. The
refrigerant must be converted into a liquid in order to increase the efficiency of the air
conditioning system. The condenser (1) converts the refrigerant vapor into a liquid that has high
temperature and high pressure.

When the refrigerant vapor leaves the compressor, the refrigerant vapor enters the condenser. The
condenser is in a location that is exposed to outside air. In order to convert the refrigerant into a
liquid, the refrigerant must lose heat. The refrigerant must reach the temperature of saturation. At
the temperature of saturation, the refrigerant vapor will become a liquid. The temperature of
saturation of the refrigerant depends on the pressure of the refrigerant.

As the high temperature, high pressure refrigerant vapor passes through the condenser (1), the
condenser absorbs heat from the refrigerant vapor. The condenser transfers the heat to the outside
air. The temperature of the refrigerant decreases until the temperature of saturation is reached.
When the temperature of saturation is reached, the refrigerant will start to condense. When all of
the refrigerant is converted into a liquid, the refrigerant leaves the condenser (1).

Evaporator Coil
SMCS - 7343

Illustration 1 g00915522

(1) Evaporator coil

In an expansion valve system, evaporator coil (1) receives liquid refrigerant from the expansion
valve. In an orifice tube system, evaporator coil (1) receives liquid refrigerant from the orifice tube
assembly. The liquid refrigerant that is received by evaporator coil (1) has low pressure and low
temperature. Since the pressure of the liquid refrigerant is low, the temperature of saturation of the
refrigerant is low. At the temperature of saturation, the refrigerant changes from a liquid into a
vapor. The temperature of saturation of a fluid increases when the pressure of a fluid increases.

Evaporator coil (1) is exposed to the air that is inside of the cab. The heat from the air that is
inside of the cab is absorbed by evaporator coil (1). Evaporator coil (1) transfers the heat to the
refrigerant. The refrigerant is then changed from a liquid into a vapor. The vaporized refrigerant
will leave evaporator coil (1). The vaporized refrigerant will carry away the heat from the cab. The
vaporized refrigerant will return to the compressor when the refrigerant leaves evaporator coil (1).
This process is repeated continuously.

(B) Air conditioner refrigerant as a high pressure, high temperature liquid

(C) Air conditioner refrigerant as a low pressure and low temperature liquid

(D) Air conditioner refrigerant as a low pressure and low temperature vapor

The air conditioner refrigerant begins to flow in the air conditioning system at the air conditioning
compressor (1). The primary purpose of the compressor (1) is changing the air conditioner
refrigerant from a vapor that has low pressure into a vapor that has high pressure. Also, the
compressor (1) changes the air conditioner refrigerant to a vapor with high temperature. An
increase in the pressure from the compressor (1) causes the increase in the temperature of the
refrigerant. The refrigerant is sent through condenser coil (2). In condenser coil (2), heat is
transferred from the refrigerant to the ambient air. This changes the air conditioner refrigerant to a
high temperature and high pressure liquid.

From the condenser coil (2), the refrigerant moves to the receiver-dryer (3). In the receiver-dryer,
moisture is removed from the refrigerant. The air conditioner refrigerant moves from the receiver-
dryer (3) to the expansion valve (4). In the expansion valve, the air conditioner refrigerant is
changed from a high pressure and high temperature liquid. The refrigerant expands in the
evaporator coil (6). The refrigerant becomes a low pressure and low temperature liquid. When the
refrigerant expands in the evaporator coil, the refrigerant absorbs heat from the cab. This changes
the refrigerant to a low pressure and low temperature vapor. The refrigerant returns to the
compressor (1) as a low pressure and low temperature vapor. This marks the end of the cycle. The
cycle is repeated continuously.

Note: Frost can be used as an indication of blockage in the air conditioning system.

The expansion valve (4) converts the liquid refrigerant from a high temperature and a high
pressure liquid to a low pressure and a low temperature liquid. The expansion valve (4) provides a
metered restriction (10). The expansion valve (4) allows the high pressure liquid to be reduced to a
low pressure liquid. When the pressure of the refrigerant is reduced, the boiling temperature of the
refrigerant will also be reduced. The refrigerant will enter the evaporator coil (6). Heat from the
cab will be absorbed by the refrigerant.

The reduced liquid pressure will lower the boiling temperature of the refrigerant. The heat will be
absorbed by the liquid R-12. The heat will change the liquid R-12 into a vapor in evaporator coil
(6). The boiling temperature of R-12 at 0.0 kPa (0.0 psi) is approximately -30 °C (-22 °F). In the
evaporator coil of a normal operating system, the pressure will be approximately 103 kPa (15 psi)
to 207 kPa (30 psi). The boiling temperature of R-12 at 103 kPa (15 psi) to 207 kPa (30 psi) is
raised approximately -11.7 °C (11 °F) to 0 °C (32 °F). This is cold enough to remove heat from
the air in the cab without freezing the evaporator coil.

The liquid refrigerant with high pressure and high temperature enters the expansion valve (4) at
the inlet (12). Only a small amount of the liquid refrigerant is allowed to flow through the metered
restriction (10) and into the outlet (13). The size of the metered restriction (10) is controlled by a
ball and rod (9). The spring (11) moves the ball and rod (9) up the expansion valve. This makes
the restriction (10) smaller. The diaphragm (8) moves the ball and rod (9) down the expansion
valve. This makes the restriction (10) larger. A temperature sensing bulb with a capillary tube (7)
is connected to the evaporator coil outlet pipe. The temperature sensing bulb measures the
temperature at the outlet of the evaporator coil. If the temperature increases, the pressure in the
capillary tube (7) increases. The pressure in the capillary tube (7) pushes down on the diaphragm
(8). The diaphragm pushes down on the ball and rod (9). When the ball and rod are pushed down
by the diaphragm the size of the restriction (10) increases. The pressure that pushes on the
diaphragm allows more liquid refrigerant to flow into the evaporator coil (6). When the
temperature decreases, the pressure decreases on the diaphragm (8). The spring (11) pushes up the
ball and rod (9) and this makes the restriction (10) smaller. As a result, less liquid refrigerant
flows into the evaporator coil (6) .

The external equalizer line (5) connects the low pressure from the outlet of the evaporator coil (6)
to the underside of the expansion valve (4) and the diaphragm (8). The pressure from the external
equalizer line pushes up against the bottom of the diaphragm. The pressure that is created by the
temperature sensing bulb in the capillary tube (7) pushes down the top of the diaphragm (8). The
pressures on each side of the diaphragm act against each other. The variation of pressure on each
side of the diaphragm will help to regulate the refrigerant flow by moving the ball and rod (9) up
and down. Regulating the refrigerant flow will prevent the flooding of the evaporator coil (6) with
refrigerant.

The liquid refrigerant under high pressure and under high temperature leaves condenser coil (2)
and passes through receiver-dryer (3). The liquid refrigerant inside the receiver-dryer passes
through filter (10) and desiccant (11). The desiccant will absorb a small amount of moisture.

Receiver-dryer (3) will also store a small amount of refrigerant. This stored refrigerant is used in
order to compensate for the changing system demands. The demands can result from different
speeds of the compressor and small losses of refrigerant.

Note: Receiver-dryer (3) must be replaced annually. Receiver-dryer (3) must also be replaced
whenever the system is opened. Receiver-dryer (3) should be replaced if moisture indicator (12) is
filled with moisture. Moisture indicator (12) will display a pink color or white color if the receiver
-dryer is full of moisture.

Some receiver-dryers are equipped with quick couplers (7). Receiver-dryers that have quick
couplers can be removed and installed without recovering the refrigerant in the air conditioner
system. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Receiver-Dryer - Remove and Install".

High pressure relief valve (9) is located on most receiver-dryers. The valve allows the refrigerant
to be released to the atmosphere if the pressure increases to approximately 3450 kPa (500 psi).

Most receiver-dryers (3) will have low pressure cutoff switch (8). If the system pressure lowers to
approximately 175 kPa (25 psi), the switch will open. This will open the electric circuit to the
magnetic clutch and the compressor will not operate. The low pressure cutoff switch (8) is used in
order to detect a low refrigerant charge. The low pressure cutoff switch (8) is used in order to
detect system operation at a temperature below 0 °C (32 °F).

Moisture Indicator
Some air conditioning systems will have moisture indicator (12). This moisture indicator is used
in order to determine the relative moisture in the system.

The system must be operated for 2 to 3 hours from time of installation before the system is
checked for moisture. Look at moisture indicator (12). If the moisture indicator is blue, the system
is dry. If the moisture indicator is pink or white, the system is full of moisture.

If the system is full of moisture, the moisture must be removed. Refer to Disassembly and
Assembly, "Receiver-Dryer - Remove and Install".

The orifice tube assembly (7) has a plastic body, two screens (13) and a small brass tube (10) that
is located in the center of the body. The O-Ring seals (11) are positioned on the body of the orifice
tube to seal against leakage. If the system has an in-line dryer, orifice tube assembly (7 ) is
contained in the dryer. If the system does not have an in-line dryer, orifice tube assembly (7) is
located at the evaporator inlet tube. The orifice tube assembly is used in place of the thermostatic
expansion valve.

The orifice tube assembly (7) changes the refrigerant from a high pressure and high temperature
refrigerant into a low pressure and low temperature liquid. The orifice tube (10) has a restriction.
The restriction in the orifice tube assembly allows the liquid refrigerant to be reduced from a high
pressure to a low pressure. The flow rate is controlled by pressure differences across the orifice.
The flow rate is also controlled by the temperature of the liquid refrigerant that is in the bottom of
the condenser. The flow rate is sensitive to temperature differences and pressure differences. The
flow rate is more sensitive to temperature differences.

Heating and Air Conditioning Control System


SMCS - 1802; 7309; 7337; 7343

Adjustable Thermostat
An adjustable thermostat contains two temperature control knobs. The temperature control knob
for the air conditioning system is connected to an adjustable thermostat. A thermostat is a switch.
Changes in the temperature will open the thermostat. Changes in the temperature will also close
the thermostat. When the temperature control knob is in the OFF position, the electric circuit that
connects the adjustable thermostat and the magnetic clutch is OPEN. In the OFF position, the
compressor does not operate. The temperature of the air and the position of the temperature
control knob determines if the switch is CLOSED. When the switch is CLOSED, current moves
through the thermostat to the coil assembly in the magnetic clutch and the compressor operates.
The temperature of the air through the evaporator coil is monitored by a capillary tube that is
placed between the fins of the evaporator coil.

The temperature control knob for heating is connected to the heater control valve. The temperature
of the cab is maintained by the position of the air conditioning and heating temperature control
knobs.

Nonadjustable Thermostat (Freeze Control System)

Illustration 1 g00668537

A nonadjustable thermostat contains one temperature control knob. The temperature control knob
is connected to the heater control valve, which controls the flow of coolant through the heater coil.
The temperature of the air across the evaporator coil is preset by the nonadjustable thermostat. The
temperature of the cab is maintained by the position of the temperature control knob on the heater.

Condensation that is frozen will restrict the air flow through the evaporator coils. The compressor
will continue operating only if the condensation does not freeze. In order to prevent the
condensation from freezing, the thermostat switch opens at a temperature of approximately -1.1°C
(30°F). Also, the thermostat switch closes at approximately 2.2°C (36°F). When the switch opens,
the electric circuit that connects the switch to the magnetic clutch is OPEN and the compressor
does not operate. When the switch is CLOSED, the current moves through the switch to the coil
assembly in the magnetic clutch and the compressor operates.

In order to operate the system in the correct manner, the heater core supply must not be closed.
Also, in order to operate the system in the correct manner, the return coolant line valve must not
be closed.

control valve allows coolant that is warm to flow from the outlet (3) through the control valve (2)
to the heater coil (1). As the warm coolant flows through the heater coil, the temperature of the air
flow across the heater coil increases.

The temperature of the heater is controlled by the amount of coolant that flows through the heater
coil. The increase of the coolant flow through the heater coil will increase the temperature of the
air that flows across the heater coil. The coolant from the heater coil will flow to the return
connection (4). Then, the coolant is sent back through the engine cooling system.

Preparation of Air Conditioner Units for Seasonal Use


SMCS - 7320

In order to improve the performance of the air conditioning units, regular maintenance must be
performed before the air conditioning units are used. In order to decrease downtime, troubleshoot
the air conditioning units before use. Failure to inspect the air conditioning units will cause the air
conditioning units to fail prematurely. In order for the air conditioning unit to operate at optimum
efficiency, all inspections must be performed.

1. Clean the fresh air filters or install new fresh air filters. Clean the recirculating air filters or
install new recirculating air filters.

2. Inspect the condenser coils. Inspect the evaporator coils. If necessary, clean the coils. Do
not steam clean the coils. In order to straighten the fins, use the 208-1350 Radiator Tool Gp
(Fin Straightener).

3. Inspect the drain lines for flow of condensate. Check for the proper location of the drain
valve. If necessary, flush the lines with water and relocate the valve. The valve should be
located between 0.0 mm (0.00 inch) and 76 mm (3 inch) from the end of the drain line.

4. Inspect the wire connections for the compressor. If necessary, clean the wire connections for
the compressor. To check clutch operation on systems with adjustable thermostats, turn the
thermostat on and off. On some other systems, turn the A/C switch on and off. Systems that
have the compressor protection system will need up to 30 seconds before the clutch
engages.

For systems that are not used for extended periods, run the compressor monthly for a
minimum of 30 seconds. This will keep the shaft seal from drying out, leaking oil, and
leaking refrigerant.

5. Check the condition and tension of the compressor drive belt. For compressors that are
driven by a V-belt, use 144-0235 Belt Tension Gauge .

6. Check all hoses and connections for refrigerant leaks. Leaks can be identified by the
following items: accumulation of oil, accumulation of dust and accumulation of dye. Check
hoses for damaged areas. Replace hoses that are damaged. As required, add protection to the
hoses or relocate the hoses.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 2

7. Do the performance check in this manual. The outside temperature needs to be at least 21 °
C (70 °F).

If the performance check shows a low charge and the system has been used for two or more
years then perform the following steps:

a. Inspect the system for leaks.

b. Recover the system charge.

c. Change the receiver-dryer, the dryer, the in-line dryer and the accumulator with
desiccant.

d. Evacuate the system for 30 minutes.

e. Recharge the system according to the specifications.

f. Inspect the system for leaks.

g. Do the performance check again after the system has been charged.

8. Remember that charging a system requires an exact charge by weight. The charge must be
within 0.01 kg (0.022 lb) of the listed charge.

9. Replace the dryer annually.

10. Inspect the dust caps in order to ensure that the dust caps that are on the service ports are in
place and that the dust caps are tight. Use 2L-1224 Air Conditioner Valve Cap for the high
side or 8C-5248 Air Conditioner Valve Cap for the low side on R-12 systems.

Cab Air Filters


SMCS - 7342

The cab air filters are designed to provide clean air to the air conditioning and the heating coils.
The cab air filters are designed to pressurize the cab. If the filters are not properly maintained, the
coils will be coated with dirt. Dirty coils will result in loss of heating. Dirty coils will result in loss
of cooling. Dirty coils could also result in failure of the compressor.

Illustration 1 g00884664

Cab air filters should be inspected weekly. Inspect the filter for holes. Look through the filter
toward a bright light. Check for damaged gaskets or dented metal parts. Do not use a damaged
filter. A damaged filter will allow dust into the cab. A damaged filter will allow dust onto the
cooling and heating coils.

General Information
SMCS - 7309

The purpose of this service manual is to describe the operation, testing and adjusting procedures,
and disassembly and assembly procedures of Caterpillar operator station heating and air
conditioning systems.

These systems are designed to provide thermal comfort to machine operators in various
conditions.

Both systems are closed loop systems that work by exchanging heat between the system fluid and
the air that is supplied to the operator station. The fluid in the air conditioning system is
refrigerant, and the fluid in the heating system is engine coolant.

In the air conditioning system, heat is transferred from the hot cab air to the cold refrigerant in the
evaporator. The refrigerant is then transported to the condenser. Heat is deposited outside the
condenser.

In the heating system, heat is transferred from the hot engine coolant to the cold cab air in the
heater coil. The engine coolant is then transported to the engine. When the coolant is back in the
engine, the coolant is heated again.

Identifying the Refrigerant


SMCS - 1809

Before servicing the air conditioning system, the type of refrigerant that is used must be
determined so that the correct service manual can be selected.

A tag that is placed in the cab or near the compressor can identify the refrigerant. The machine can
have factory installed tag (1), or the machine can have tag (2) that is installed by the dealer.

Illustration 1 g01507259

(1) Factory installed identification tag

(2) Retrofit tag that is installed by the dealer

One may also identify the type of refrigerant that is used in the air conditioning system by
examining the charging ports. Systems with R-134a will use ports that are quick disconnect (4)
while systems with the older R-12 will use threaded ports (3). These ports are usually found in the
block fittings that attach to the compressor.

Identifying the Heating System


SMCS - 7304; 7309

Identifying the Heating System


The heating system can be identified as either a water valve control system or a blend door control
system. The control system for the water valve regulates the amount of hot engine coolant that is
circulated through the heater coil. The control system for the blend door regulates the amount of air
that is routed through the heater coil. Both the water valve and the blend door can be regulated
through either a mechanical cable or through an electronic actuator.

Heating System with Water Valve Control

Illustration 1 g06039335

(1) Supply from engine thermostat

(2) Return to water pump

(3) Heater return to water pump

(4) ESPAR return to water pump

The hot coolant from the engine circulates through the heating system. This coolant flows from the
engine thermostat (1), through heater control valve, through heater coil, and back to the return valve
for the water pump. The temperature control knob, which is on the control panel within the cab,
regulates the flow of coolant.

With the temperature control knob in the maximum cold position, heater control valve is closed. This
prevents the flow of coolant into heater coil. When the control knob is moved away from the
maximum cold position toward the maximum heating position, the heater control valve begins to
open. As the control valve opens, coolant begins to flow from the outlet valve for engine thermostat
through the heater control valve and into the heater coil. As the hot coolant flows through the heater
coil, the temperature of the air that is flowing through the coil increases.

The temperature of the air that is flowing out of heater coil and into the cab is controlled by the
amount of coolant that circulates through the heater coil. The coolant transfers the heat into the air
stream. By increasing the amount of coolant that is circulating through the heater coil, the
temperature of the air that is flowing out of the coil also increases. The coolant leaves the heater coil
at a reduced temperature and flows back into the return valve for the water pump.

Heating System with Blend Door Control

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 4

The hot coolant from the engine circulates through the heating system. This coolant flows from the
outlet valve for the engine thermostat, through heater control valve, through heater coil, and back to
the return valve for the water pump. The temperature control knob, which is on the control panel
within the cab, regulates the flow of coolant.

The air from outside of the unit is pulled through evaporator coil. This is through a series of ducts and
filters. The incoming air is directed by using a blend door. The air can be directed to flow through
heater coil, or the air can be directed to bypass the heater coil. With the temperature control knob in
the maximum cold position, blend door is closed. This prevents the air from flowing through heater
coil. This air flows directly from evaporator coil to the cab.

When the control knob is moved away from the maximum cold toward the maximum heat position,
blend door begins to open. As the blend door opens, air begins to flow through heater coil and mixes
with the colder air that is flowing through evaporator coil. This mixture of air is delivered to the cab
through the air ducts. As the amount of air that is flowing through the heater coil increases, the
overall temperature of the air that is flowing into the cab also increases.

Heater Coil

The heater coil is a device that is similar to a radiator. The heater coil heats the cab of the machine.
The heater coil is exposed to the air which passes across the evaporator coil. The heater transfers the
heat from the hot engine coolant into the air that is traveling across the engine. The heat transfer will
heat up the air that is flowing to the cab, which also reduces the temperature of the coolant that is
flowing back to the engine cylinder.

Water Valve

The water valve is a device that is used to regulate the flow of engine coolant to the heater coil and
the flow of engine coolant from the heater coil. The water valve is a necessary component in the
control system for the water valve. The water valve can be used in a blend door controlled system. In
the blend door system, the water valve would allow coolant to flow through the coil, or the water
valve would block coolant flow completely.

Depending on the type of system that is being used, the water valve can be connected to a mechanical
cable, or the water valve can be connected to an electronic actuator. The mechanical cable is
connected between the control knob in the cab and the valve. The control knob opens the valve and
the control knob closes the valve. The electronic actuator is connected to the water valve and wired to
the control panel.

Blend Door

The blend door is a device that is used to control the temperature of the cab air. The blend door
controls the temperature by regulating the amount of air that is allowed to pass through the heater coil
and mixing the air with the cool air from the evaporator coil. As the blend door gradually opens, the
hot coolant that is flowing through the heater coil transfers heat to the cooler air that is flowing across
the heater coil. This warmer air mixes with the cool air that is flowing across the evaporator to
regulate the air temperature that is entering the ducts in the cab.

The blend door is typically plastic with insulation on both sides to prevent any unnecessary heat
transfer when the system is set to the maximum heat position or the maximum cold position. The
blend door is controlled by an electronic actuator, which is wired into the control panel within the
cab.

The air conditioner refrigerant begins to flow in the air conditioning system at the refrigerant
compressor (1). The compressor is designed to change the air conditioner refrigerant from a vapor
that has low pressure into a vapor that has high pressure. Also, the compressor changes the refrigerant
from a vapor with low temperature to a vapor with high temperature. The increase in pressure causes
the increase in temperature.

The refrigerant is sent through the condenser coil (2). In the condenser coil, heat is transferred from
the refrigerant to the outside air. This changes the refrigerant to a high temperature and high pressure
liquid.

From the condenser coil, the refrigerant moves to the receiver-dryer (3). In the receiver-dryer,
moisture is removed from the refrigerant by the desiccant (4).

The refrigerant moves from the receiver-dryer to either the 90° expansion valve (5) or the block
expansion valve (6). In the expansion valve, the refrigerant is changed from a high pressure and a
high temperature liquid to a low pressure and a low temperature mixture of liquid and vapor.

The low pressure and low temperature refrigerant moves to the evaporator coil (7). While the
refrigerant is in the evaporator coil, the refrigerant absorbs heat from the cab. This changes the
refrigerant to a low pressure and low temperature vapor.

The refrigerant returns to the compressor as a low pressure and low temperature vapor. This marks
the end of the cycle. The cycle is repeated continuously.

The air conditioner refrigerant begins to flow in the air conditioning system at refrigerant compressor
(1). The compressor is designed to change the air conditioner refrigerant from a vapor that has low
pressure into a vapor that has high pressure. Also, the compressor changes the refrigerant from a
vapor with low temperature to a vapor with high temperature. The increase in pressure causes the
increase in temperature.

The refrigerant is sent through condenser coil (2). In the condenser coil, heat is transferred from the
refrigerant to the outside air. This changes the refrigerant to a high temperature and high pressure
liquid.

From condenser coil (2), the refrigerant moves to in-line dryer (3). In in-line dryer (3), moisture is
removed from the refrigerant by desiccant (4). Some orifice tube systems will not contain an in-line
dryer. In this case, the desiccant is located in accumulator (7).

Next, the refrigerant flows to the orifice tube. When the refrigerant is at the orifice tube, the
refrigerant is changed from a high pressure and high temperature liquid to a liquid vapor mixture that
is low pressure and low temperature.

The low pressure and low temperature refrigerant moves to evaporator coil (6). While the refrigerant
is in the evaporator coil the refrigerant absorbs heat from the cab. This changes the refrigerant to a
low pressure and low temperature vapor.

After the evaporator coil, the refrigerant flows to the accumulator. The accumulator stores liquid
refrigerant that is exiting the evaporator and the accumulator allows only vapor to continue to the
compressor.

The low pressure and low temperature vapor returns to the compressor. This marks the end of the
cycle. The cycle is repeated continuously.

The compressor is driven by the engine. A belt connects the engine to the clutch and pulley
assembly (2). The pulley assembly is located on the clutch. The drive plate (4) is fastened to the
shaft of the compressor. The clutch and pulley assembly (2) turns on the bearing (5). The clutch
and pulley assembly (2) are not connected to the shaft (6). The electric current from the thermostat
controls a magnetic field in the coil assembly (3).

The magnetic field pulls the drive plate (4) against the clutch and pulley assembly (2). The clutch
and the pulley assembly (2) turns the shaft (6) that operates the compressor. When the current to
the coil assembly (3) is stopped, the magnetic field is removed. This allows the drive plate (4) to
move away from the clutch and pulley assembly (2). The clutch and the pulley assembly (2) will
turn freely on the bearing (5). The sequence of connecting and disconnecting the pulley to the
compressor shaft (6) is called compressor cycling. The compressor cycling is controlled by the
thermostat . The thermostat is controlled by the capillary tube, which is installed between the fins
of the evaporator coil.

Illustration 2 g01514061

Typical Condenser

When the refrigerant leaves the compressor, the refrigerant is a vapor. The temperature of the
refrigerant is high and the pressure of the refrigerant is high when the refrigerant leaves the
compressor. The increase in pressure of the refrigerant causes an increase in temperature of the
refrigerant. The refrigerant vapor leaves the compressor and the refrigerant enters the condenser
(1).

The refrigerant must be converted into a liquid that has high temperature and high pressure. The
refrigerant must be converted into a liquid in order to increase the efficiency of the air
conditioning system. The condenser (1) converts the refrigerant vapor into a liquid that has high
temperature and high pressure.

When the refrigerant vapor leaves the compressor, the refrigerant vapor enters the condenser. The
condenser is in a location that is exposed to outside air. In order to convert the refrigerant into a
liquid, the refrigerant must lose heat. The refrigerant must reach the temperature of saturation. At
the temperature of saturation, the refrigerant vapor will become a liquid. The temperature of
saturation of the refrigerant depends on the pressure of the refrigerant.

As the high temperature, high pressure refrigerant vapor passes through the condenser (1), the
condenser absorbs heat from the refrigerant vapor. The condenser transfers the heat to the outside
air. The temperature of the refrigerant and the pressure of the refrigerant decrease until the
temperature of saturation is reached. When the temperature of the refrigerant vapor is equal to the
temperature of saturation, the refrigerant becomes a high temperature, high pressure liquid. When
the refrigerant is converted into a liquid, the refrigerant leaves the condenser (1).

The receiver-dryer stores a small amount of refrigerant. This stored refrigerant is used in order to
compensate for the changing system demands. These system demands can result from changing
the speeds on the compressor, varying heat loads, or small losses of refrigerant.

A high-pressure relief valve (3) is located on most receiver-dryers. The valve allows the
refrigerant to be released to the atmosphere if the pressure increases to approximately 3450 kPa
(500 psi). Most receiver-dryers also have a low-pressure cutoff switch (1) . If the system pressure
lowers to approximately 175 kPa (25 psi), the switch opens. This will open the electric circuit to
the magnetic clutch and the compressor will not operate.

Some receiver-dryers will have a moisture indicator (5) . This moisture indicator is used in order
to determine the relative moisture in the system. If the moisture indicator is blue, the system is
dry. If the moisture indicator is pink or white, then the receiver-dryer must be replaced. Refer to
Disassembly and Assembly, "Receiver-Dryer Remove and Install" within this manual.

The expansion valve (6) is designed to convert the refrigerant from a high pressure and high
temperature liquid into a low pressure and low temperature liquid vapor mixture. The expansion
valve also controls the amount of refrigerant that is supplied to the evaporator.

The two main types of expansion valve are the 90° expansion valve and the block expansion
valve. The internal operation is identical for both of the valves. The valve configuration on the air
conditioning system can be found in Systems Operation, "Refrigerant Expansion Valve System"
within this manual.

The liquid refrigerant with high pressure and high temperature enters the expansion valve at the
inlet (7) from the condenser. An amount of refrigerant is allowed to flow through the metered
restriction (2) and the outlet (3) to the evaporator.

The size of the metered restriction is controlled by three components:

• Pressure in the capillary tube (4)

• Pressure in the external equalizer line (1)

• Force due to the spring (9)

The capillary tube is filled with saturated refrigerant. There is a temperature sensing bulb at the
end of the capillary tube. The temperature sensing bulb is held to the evaporator outlet. As the
temperature of the evaporator outlet increases, the pressure in the capillary tube increases. This
pressure creates a downward force on the diaphragm (5) . Some types of block valves have an
internal temperature sensing bulb.

The external equalizer line connects the evaporator outlet with the underside of the diaphragm.
The pressure in the line creates an upward force on the diaphragm. In a block style expansion
valve, there is not a required separate external equalizer line. There is not a separate external
equalizer line because the line for the evaporator outlet is routed through the block valve.

The ball and rod (8) is attached to the diaphragm and the spring. The spring creates an upward
force on the ball and rod.

When the force due to the pressure in the capillary tube is greater than the combined forces due to
the spring and the pressure in the external equalizer line, the valve opens wider. The opening of

valve allows more refrigerant flow. When the force due to the pressure in the capillary tube is less
than the combined forces due to the spring and the pressure in the external equalizer line, the valve
closes. The closing of valve restricts the refrigerant flow.

This metering action allows only the required amount of refrigerant to be supplied to the
evaporator in varying load conditions.

small brass tube is referred to as an orifice tube (2), and it is located in the center of the body. The
O-ring seals (3) are positioned on the body of the orifice tube to seal against leakage around the
orifice tube.

The orifice tube assembly is contained within the in-line dryer. If there is no in-line dryer, the
orifice tube is located in the inlet to the evaporator.

The orifice tube (2) restricts the flow of refrigerant. This restriction creates a pressure drop across
the orifice tube. This changes the refrigerant from a high temperature high pressure liquid into a
liquid vapor mixture that is low temperature low pressure. The flow rate is controlled by the
pressure difference across the orifice tube.

Evaporator Coil
SMCS - 7343

Illustration 1 g01265314

(1) Typical evaporator coil

In an expansion valve system, the evaporator coil receives liquid refrigerant from the expansion
valve. In an orifice tube system, the evaporator receives liquid refrigerant from the orifice tube
assembly. The liquid refrigerant that is received by the evaporator has low pressure and low
temperature. Since the pressure of the liquid refrigerant is low, the temperature of saturation of the
refrigerant is low. At the temperature of saturation, the refrigerant changes from a liquid into a
vapor. The temperature of saturation of a fluid increases when the pressure of a fluid increases.

The evaporator coil is exposed to the air that is inside of the cab. The heat from the air that is
inside of the cab is absorbed by the evaporator. The evaporator transfers the heat to the refrigerant.
The amount of heat that is required to reach the temperature of saturation is called the latent heat
of vaporization. When this heat is absorbed by the refrigerant, the temperature of the refrigerant
will reach the temperature of saturation. The refrigerant will change from a liquid into a vapor.
The vaporized refrigerant will leave the evaporator. The vaporized refrigerant will carry away the
heat from the cab. The vaporized refrigerant will return to the compressor when the refrigerant
leaves the evaporator. This process is repeated continuously.

Compressor protection schematic with an on delay timer (Compressor Protection Module)

The protection system uses an on delay timer assembly for the refrigerant compressor that monitors
three switches in order to protect the refrigerant compressor. The on delay timer assembly will
perform the following functions:

• Increase the life of the refrigerant compressor if the air conditioning system has a low
refrigerant charge.

• Delay the refrigerant compressor from engaging during engine start-up.

• Protect the compressor clutch from low voltage and high voltage.

When the air conditioning switch is activated inside the cab, the air conditioning switch supplies
voltage to the on delay timer assembly through pin (4). If the voltage at pin (4) is outside the
acceptable range, the on delay timer assembly will not engage the compressor clutch coil. If the
proper voltage is present, the on delay timer assembly delays the engagement of the compressor
clutch for 15 to 20 seconds after the air conditioning switch is activated. The on delay timer assembly
monitors the status of three switches by sending a signal voltage through pin (1). The following three
switches are monitored by the on delay timer assembly:

• The high/low pressure switch on the high side of the air conditioning system

• The low pressure switch on the low side of the air conditioning system

• The thermostat switch

The three switches are connected in series to ground. If any one switch creates an open circuit, the on
delay timer assembly detects the signal.

If any of the switches cycle on and off in rapid succession, the on delay timer assembly will start a
time delay. The time delay limits the cycles of the refrigerant compressor to 4 times per minute.

Temperature Control
SMCS - 7309

Adjustable Thermostat
A Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning (HVAC) system that is controlled by an adjustable
thermostat contains two temperature control knobs.

The first temperature control knob is for the air conditioning system and the control knob is
connected to the adjustable thermostat.

A thermostat is a switch that opens and closes. The thermostat switch opens and the thermostat
switch closes because of the changes that can occur in the temperature of the sensing element. A
sensing element is also known as a capillary tube. Sensing temperatures for the element less than the
switch point on the thermostat will open the thermostat switch. Sensing temperatures for the element
more than the switch point for the thermostat will close the thermostat switch.

When the first temperature control knob is in the OFF position, the electric circuit that connects the
adjustable thermostat and the magnetic clutch is OPEN. In the OFF position, the compressor does not
operate. The temperature of the air and the position of the temperature control knob determines if the
thermostat switch is CLOSED. When the thermostat switch is CLOSED, the current moves through
the switch and the coil assembly in the magnetic clutch, and this causes the compressor to operate.
The temperature of the air through the evaporator coil is monitored by the capillary tube that is placed
between the fins of the evaporator coil.

The second temperature control knob is for heating. This knob is connected to the heater control
valve, which controls the flow of coolant through the heater coil. The temperature of the cab is
maintained by the position of the air conditioning and heating temperature control knobs.

Nonadjustable Thermostat (Freeze Control System)

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022

Illustration 1 g01510274

An HVAC system using a nonadjustable thermostat contains one temperature control knob. The
temperature control knob is connected to the heater control valve, which controls the flow of coolant
through the heater coil. The temperature of the cab is maintained by the position of the temperature
control knob on the heater.

The temperature of the air that crosses the evaporator coil is kept at the coldest possible temperature
allowed by the nonadjustable thermostat. The thermostat switch opens at a temperature of
approximately −1.1 °C (30 °F) in order to prevent the condensation from freezing to the evaporator
coil. In addition, the thermostat switch closes at approximately 2.2 °C (36 °F). Condensation that is
frozen will restrict the air flow through the evaporator coils. When the switch opens, the electric
circuit that connects the thermostat switch to the magnetic clutch is OPEN and the compressor does
not operate. When the switch is CLOSED, the current moves through the switch and through the coil
assembly in the magnetic clutch. This causes the compressor to operate. In order to operate the
system in the correct manner, the heater core supply must not be closed. Also, in order to operate the
system in the correct manner, the return coolant line valve must not be closed.

Typical HVAC Components

The Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) system includes all of the standard HVAC components
for manual temperature control along with the louver and recirculation temperature sensors. There are
a few steps to enable ATC.

• Select the Auto position on the mode selection switch located on the control panel

• Rotate the temperature dial to the desired temperature setting

• Rotate the blower fan dial to the desired speed – Note: There has to be some fan speed in order
for the ATC to operate, full CW position of the dial will turn off the ATC.

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) receives the requested temperature from the control panel and
the cab temperature sensor and automatically controls the water valve actuator and compressor to
reach and maintain that temperature. Some machines are also equipped with an Auto Blower option
that adjusts the blower fan speed based on the cab temperature error, the larger temperature difference
the faster the blower fan speed.

Cab Pressurization and Filtration System


SMCS - 7320; 7342

Caterpillar machines with an enclosed cab area need to provide adequate air flow to the operator
inside the cab area so that a standard air pressure is met. Maintaining a proper air pressure level is
accomplished by ensuring that the appropriate seals are used. When the appropriate seals are
correctly installed, the cab will be pressurized by the ventilation system.

Maintaining the proper pressurization level in the cab area is important to the health of the
operator because changes to the air pressure may lead to problems with breathing. Low pressure
can cause dust to enter the cab and the Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning (HVAC) system,
which can lead to premature system deterioration. Low pressure is often caused by improper
sealing of the cab. Poor sealing of the cab requires an increase in the fresh air flow to maintain
pressurization. The increase in fresh air flow will lead to a lower air conditioning and heater
performance. The increase in fresh air flow will also lead to increased intervals in filter service.
Additional noise that is entering the cab can also result from poor sealing of the cab.

Cab sealing objectives for the operator cab environment are for the cab to pressurize to a
minimum of 50 Pa (0.2 inch of H2O) with no more than 76 m3/hr (45 cfm) of fresh air flow. The
minimum cab fresh air flow while the ventilation system is operating on any fan speed is 43 m3/hr
(25 cfm). This objective satisfies the requirements for fresh air flow from SAE J1503 and ISO
10263-4. In HVAC systems with a mode door that controls the balance of fresh air and
recirculation air, the control shall be set to minimum fresh air flow while measuring cab pressure.

The air flow of a HVAC system is used to pressurize a cab as the air flow passes through different
components. First, outside air is drawn into the HVAC compartment after being filtered for dust
particles. Air is drawn in with the help of a blower fan. The blower fan pulls air or pushes air
across the heater and/or the evaporator coil. The air flow is then directed into the ventilation ducts
of the system. The air flow travels into the environment of the cab through the directional louvers.
Finally, the air inside the cab area returns to the HVAC system through the recirculation filter.

Some ventilation systems can be enhanced by using different options. One option that is available
for a wide variety of Caterpillar machines is the inclusion of a powered precleaner unit. As part of
the pressurized system of the cab, a precleaner removes additional dirt/dust from the fresh air flow
that is entering the cab. This provides extended life for the filter to the fresh air filter. These
precleaners are coupled with higher efficiency fresh air filters in order to prevent finer particles of
dirt from entering the cab area. In addition to the precleaner, some newer systems may include

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 2

filters that are low restriction. A media filter that is low restriction can filter dust effectively, and
offer more air flow through the HVAC system.

Cab Air Filters


Most Caterpillar machines with the R134a system have two cab air filters. One type of air filter is
the fresh air filter and the other type of filter is a recirculation filter inside the cab. Some of the
machines have a third air filter that is made of foam. The third filter is designed to remove large
debris before the air reaches the fresh air filter.

Some Caterpillar machines are equipped with a precleaner for the cab. The system is designed to
remove excessive dust and dirt from the air that is entering the cab. The precleaner is part of the
pressurized cab.

There are optional replacement filters that are available for use in the field with certain machine
applications. Carbon impregnated filters are used for improved odor reduction in place of the fresh
air filter. High efficiency filters are also used as a replacement for the fresh air filter in
environments with high concentrations of dust. High efficiency filters also provide better filtering
efficiencies in order to reduce the intake of dust into the cab. Filters that are low restriction are
also available for certain applications as a way to reduce the system restriction through the filter.
Filters that are low restriction reduce the restriction that is in the system, and the filters continue to
maintain efficiencies in filtering dust.

ReferenceFor optional replacement of filters, see Datasheet, PEHJ0092, "Cat Cabin Air Filters
Datasheet".

Air filters for Caterpillar cabs are not intended for filtering out hazardous materials. When you are
working in an environment with potentially hazardous materials, all of the safety precautions for
working with that material should be followed. As the requirements are defined by the local
agencies, additional personal protection equipment may be required for the operator.

Condensate Drainage System


SMCS - 7320

Caterpillar machines that are equipped with Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning (HVAC) units
need to have an adequate system for drainage in order to properly remove condensate from the
HVAC system. Condensate collects on the coils as moisture is removed from the air during air
conditioning operation. After the condensate has developed on the coil, the condensate will drip
off the coil. In order to prevent any condensate from entering the enclosure for the operator, a
drainage system that is maintained correctly is needed.

Drainage of the condensate can be achieved in different ways. Some systems have a collection
reservoir that is built into the case compartment that encloses the evaporator coil. The floor of the
case slopes to the holes for drainage, and this allows condensate to drain away from the HVAC
unit.

Other systems incorporate a separate drain pan that is located under the coil, in the case
compartment that is used to collect condensate. The drain pan is shaped in order to allow
condensate to flow toward the holes for drainage and away from the HVAC unit.

Whether integrated into the case design, or integrated through the use of a drain pan, the drain
hoses and the valves are attached to the drain holes. Drainage hoses are commonly used to route
the condensate around critical components on the machine, so that the water can be diverted to a
proper point of exit below the machine. Drain valves are intended to prevent dust and debris from
entering the HVAC unit. The location of the drainage unit may change the way that the
condensate will be removed from the system. Some units will allow drainage to drain directly out
of the case without the use of drain valves and hoses.

The cab air filters are designed to provide clean air to the evaporator and the heater coils. The cab
air filters are also designed to keep the cab pressurized. If the filters are not properly maintained,
the coils will be coated with dirt. Dirty coils will result in loss of heating and cooling. Dirty coils
could also result in failure of the compressor. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Coil Cleaning".

Illustration 1 g01517100

Cab air filters should be inspected regularly. Any inspection variance depends on the
environmental conditions. Fresh air filters should be checked after every shift (8 to 10 hours).
Fresh air filters should be changed after every week (40 to 50 hours). Recirculation filters should
be checked after every week (40 to 50 hours). Recirculation filters should be changed after every
month (160 to 200 hours). Inspect the filter for holes. Look through the filter toward a bright light.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 6 of 8

Check for damaged gaskets or dented metal parts. Do not use damaged filters. For extreme dust
conditions, the filters should be inspected daily, and the filters should be cleaned whenever is
necessary.

Illustration 2 g01517101

Remove loose dirt with compressed air. Do not exceed 690 kPa (100 psi) from an air nozzle that is
3.18 mm (0.125 inch)diameter. Keep the air nozzle at least 51 mm (2 inch) from the filter.

The filters that are made of foam can be blown out with low-pressure air. The filters that are made
of foam can also be gently washed with a mild detergent. After washing the filters, dry the filters
with low-pressure air.

If the carbon is still active, the carbon impregnated filters may be blown out with low-pressure air.
Do not wash the carbon impregnated filters.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 7 of 8

Standard filters or high efficiency filters may be blown out with low-pressure air. Do not wash the
standard filters or the high efficiency filters.

Coil Cleaning

NOTICE

Do not use steam to clean the coils, under any circumstance. The heat
from the steam will induce thermal stresses on the construction of the
components of the coil. The stress can weaken the overall construction
and permanently damaging the coil.

NOTICE

Do not use any other objects in order to straighten the fins, such as a
screwdriver or a knife. These objects can damage the coil.

In order for an HVAC coil to function properly, air must be able to flow freely across the fins
without any major obstructions. Because the coils need to stay clean, cleaning the coil is important
in order for the coils to provide sufficient air flow. Some job applications may cause the coils to
become dirty quickly, and dirty coils requires frequent cleaning. There are different methods that
are utilized for proper cleaning. The different methods that are used depend on the type of coil that
is used.

Condenser coils typically have a thicker, more durable fin structure that is designed to withstand
the conditions of the environment. Due to the construction of the condenser coils, condenser coils
can be washed with a low-pressure power washer. Power wash in order to remove any dirt from
the coil and any debris from the coil. The coils should be cleaned from a safe distance. However,
if the nozzle is too close to the coil the water still can damage the fins.

The evaporator and heater coils typically reside within an enclosed area. In order to protect the
evaporator and the heater coils from the environment and outside dirt and debris. Therefore, the
construction is not strong enough to withstand washing with direct pressure. In order to clean the
coils, use a low-pressure air nozzle that is like the one that is used in cleaning the filter. Carefully
use the low-pressure air nozzle in order to blow out any dirt and debris that is present on the coils.

During normal operation and routine cleaning, the fins may possibly get bent. The bent fins could
cause blockages in the air flow, which will reduce overall system performance. Straighten the fins
by using the 208-1350 Radiator Tool Gp . Start at one side of the coil and work toward the other
side. Be careful not to rip or tear the fins during straightening, as this straightening will cause an
unwanted reduction in performance.

(1) Alert indicators

The Electronic Monitoring System (EMS) control notifies the operator of an immediate or
impending problem with a machine system. Warning operation begins when the EMS control
receives a signal that reflects an abnormal machine condition. The alternator and switches provide
signals to the EMS control. The signals are:

• An open switch. When a machine system condition exceeds the specified value of the
switch, the switch opens.

• An alternator "R" terminal signal which exceeds limits. The EMS control determines the
limits.

The EMS control analyzes the signals and activates the appropriate warning indication to notify
the operator. The warning indications are:

• FLASHING of an alert indicator

• FLASHING of the action lamp

• SOUNDING of the action alarm (ON and OFF)

Note: To activate some warning indications more than one input is required. The EMS control
decides when and what warning indications are activated.

Abnormal machine system conditions are classified into three warning categories: 1, 2, and 3. The
categories dictate the required response of the operator based on the severity of the condition.
Warning category 1 represents the least severe condition and warning category 3 represents the
most severe condition. The warning categories are identified for the operator according to the
combination of warning indications that are active. See Warning Operation chart.

(1) Alert Indicators

Two switch input conditions are diagnosed: open and grounded. An alert indicator FLASHES,
when the corresponding switch type input is open.

EMS monitors the switch inputs. With the machine shutdown many switch inputs are open. These
open switch inputs cause the corresponding alert indicators to flash if the key start switch is ON.

Note: A switch input may be activated by more than one switch. The switches would be wired in
series, see the Operation and Maintenance Manual for the machine being serviced.

When programming input 1 (connector contact 9) is grounded, connector contact 19 is assigned a warning category 1.

With this programming input open, connector contact 19 is assigned a warning category 3.

Switch Inputs - Uncommitted

The ten uncommitted switch inputs (connector contacts 4 through 8, 12, 14, 17, 18, and 19) provide
the information used to operate nine alert indicators. During normal operation, these switch inputs are
closed to ground. The grounded inputs tell the EMS control that the system conditions are normal and
no alert indicators are activated. These inputs receive information from pressure, temperature, flow,
level, and position switches located within the machine systems. Some machines are equipped with
other electronic controls that supply the EMS control with input information in place of a switch.

Switch Input - Speed Sensitive

This input activates indicator 3 if connector contact 18 is open and the "R" terminal frequency (which
represents engine speed) is above a certain frequency. This frequency is determined by the status of
connector contact 16. With contact 16 closed to ground, the frequency is 376 Hz ± 10%. With contact
16 open, the frequency is 470 Hz ± 10%.

Switch Input - Alarm Inhibit

A fuel pressure switch provides information about the engine operating status to the alarm inhibit
input (connector contact 13). During normal operation (engine running), the fuel pressure switch is
open. When the engine is stopped, the fuel pressure switch closes the alarm inhibit input to ground.
With this input grounded, the action alarm will not sound.

Switch Inputs - Programming

The programming switch inputs (connector contacts 9, 16, and 20) tell the EMS control how to
operate. The EMS control operates in a manner that corresponds to the open or grounded state of the
programming switch inputs. These inputs receive information from permanent connections within the
harness wiring or machine system switches (neutral switch). This information is necessary because of
the differences in machine models.

Input 1

This programming input (connector contact 9) tells the EMS control what warning category should be
assigned to an open connector contact 19. With this programming input closed to ground, connector
contact 19 is assigned a warning category 1. With this programming input open, connector contact 19
is assigned a warning category 3.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 5 of 6

Input 2

This programming input (connector contact 16) tells the EMS control what frequency should be used
for speed sensitive switch input 4 (connector contact 18). With contact 16 closed to ground, the
frequency is 376 Hz ± 10%. With contact 16 open, the frequency is 470 Hz ± 10%.

Input 3

This programming input (connector contact 20) tells the EMS control what warning category should
be assigned to an open connector contact 17. With this programming input closed to ground,
connector contact 17 is assigned a warning category 2. With this programming input open, connector
contact 17 is assigned a warning category 3.

Sensor Input - Alternator (Alert Indicator 8)

The "R" terminal of the alternator provides an AC signal to the EMS control. The EMS control
measures the frequency (Hz) of the AC signal and determines the speed at which the alternator is
rotating (engine speed). If frequency measured is below 94 Hz ± 10%, alert indicator 8 will flash. The
alternator "R" terminal information helps determine the condition of the electrical charging system.
Harness wiring directly connects the alternator "R" terminal to a frequency sensor input at the EMS
control.

Alert indicators (1) notify the operator of an abnormal machine condition. The EMS control uses the
status of the uncommitted switch inputs and the sensor input to determine when an abnormal
condition is present. When an abnormal condition exists, alert indicator (1) flashes. The pictograph
symbol nearest the FLASHING alert indicator identifies the responsible machine system. For more
information, see the Warning Operation section.

Action Lamp

When a serious abnormal condition exists (warning category 2), the EMS control activates the action
lamp output (connector contact 11) and the action lamp flashes along with the alert indicator. For
more information, see the Warning Operation section.

Action Alarm

When a critical abnormal condition exists (warning category 3), the EMS control activates the action
alarm output (connector contact 10). The action alarm sounds along with flashing the alert indicator
and the action lamp. For more information, see the Warning Operation section.

The action alarm connects to an output of the EMS control (connector contact 10). The
SOUNDING of the action alarm (ON and OFF) tells the operator to immediately shutdown the
machine safely. The EMS control SOUNDS the action alarm whenever a warning category 3
problem exists.

The action alarm does not operate when the engine is stopped. The EMS control uses fuel pressure
to determine when the engine is running or stopped. When the EMS alarm inhibit input (connector
contact 13) is grounded by the fuel pressure switch (engine stopped), the action alarm will not
SOUND.

Machine Preparation for Troubleshooting


SMCS - 7320

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the

• Low refrigerant charge will cause a loss of cooling ability and a loss of lubrication in the
compressor, which will result in failure of the compressor.

• Overcharge of refrigerant will cause a loss of cooling ability. A system that is overcharged
will contain excess liquid refrigerant, which will severely damage the compressor. An
overcharged system will fail two times faster than an undercharged system.

• Too much oil in the system will contribute to liquid slugging. Liquid slugging will cause the
compressor to seize.

• A small amount of moisture will penetrate the hoses that are used in R-12 systems. Change
the dryer or change the accumulator and the desiccant annually. Moisture causes sludge that
will result in a plugged system. Moisture causes the formation of ice at the orifice tube
assembly. Moisture causes the formation of ice at the thermal expansion valve.

• Gauge readings for an undercharged R-12 system may appear as symptoms of overcharge
under certain conditions. This occurs when the ambient temperature is above 32 °C (90 °F)
or in high humidity. Gauge readings that are Incorrect lead to a loss of cooling ability and
failure of the compressor.

• Refrigerant that is removed from a system cannot be weighed accurately. A 20 to 30% error
can occur. The error is a result of oil that is removed from the system and a result of the
inaccuracies of devices that are used for recovery.

• The scale that is used for charging should be checked for accuracy after every 30 days or
after every 30 uses.

• After recovering a system, if the system pressure rises above 0 kPa (0 psi) within 5 minutes,
the system must be recovered again until the pressure does not increase. Recovering the
system again will empty the accumulator of refrigerant.

• The presence of frost on the accumulator is a normal condition. The thickness of the frost
will depend on ambient temperature and humidity.

• Perform regular maintenance on the refrigerant service units and change the oil in the
vacuum pumps.

• Secure lines and wires in order to prevent damage to the lines and wires.

• The formation of black sludge deposits in the system is caused by the presence of moisture
in R-12 systems and by mixing charges of R-134a and R-12. The black sludge deposits
can cause a blockage in the system.

• R-12 system charges must be within 0.03 kg (1.000 oz) to .06 kg (2.000 oz) of the specified
charge for the machine.

• A drain line that is plugged or a drain line that is pinched may cause a backup of condensate
and leakage into the cab.

• Missing drain valves may cause dirt to get into the cab.

• Missing drain valves will allow dust to be sucked into the evaporator coil and the heater
coil.

A cab pressure of 0.05 kPa (0.200 inch of H2O) to 0.15 kPa (0.600 inch of H2O) and proper
maintenance of the air conditioner filter will result in the following conditions:

• Reduction of dust

• Reduction of noise

• More efficient HVAC performance

A loss of cooling ability of the system and failure of the compressor may be caused by one or
more of the following conditions.

• Low charge

• Overcharge

• Too much oil

• Too little oil

• Dirty filter or plugged filter

• Dirty condenser or plugged condenser

• Dirty evaporator or plugged evaporator

• Dirty orifice tube or plugged orifice tube

• Dirty expansion valve or plugged expansion valve

• Too much moisture in the system

• Missing drain valves for the evaporator

Before you conduct a performance check of the air conditioning system, the following items
should be checked:

1. Check the condenser and the evaporator.

a. Check for any type of restriction that will obstruct the air flow. Check for dirt, insects,
plastic bags, etc.

b. For machines that are equipped with condensers that are mounted on the roof, always
make sure that all fan motors are running. Check for restrictions. A clean condenser
will lead to longer life for the compressor.

2. Clean the fresh air filters and clean the recirculation filters.

3. Check for a loose belt on the compressor.

4. Check the moisture indicator, if equipped. If the indicator is pink or white, there is moisture
in the system. Replace the receiver-dryer or the in-line dryer. Refer to the proper
Disassembly and Assembly manual for your machine. If the moisture indicator is blue, the
system is normal.

5. Check the drain tube on the evaporator. The drain plug should not be obstructed.

6. For machines that are equipped with an accumulator, start the machine. Set the air
conditioner on HIGH. Feel the accumulator with the hand. In a properly charged system, the
entire accumulator will be cool to the touch or cold to the touch.

Troubleshooting Heating and Air Conditioning Control


System
SMCS - 7309-035

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

Heating System
In order to conduct a performance check of the heating system, perform the following procedure.

1. Run the engine at 1000 rpm.

2. Adjust the temperature control knob to the setting for maximum heating.

3. Put the fan switch in the HIGH position on heat.

4. When the engine coolant temperature is in the normal operating range, the temperature of
the air that is flowing from the louvers (air ducts) should be warm.

If the temperature of the air that is flowing is not warm within 10 minutes of operation, refer
to "Problem 2" section.

Problem 1

There is little warm air flow or no warm air flow when the heater control knob is set for
maximum heating.

1. Perform the following procedure:

a. Check the engine coolant temperature. The temperature of the coolant must be at
normal operating range.

b. The heater control valve must be functioning properly. Check for the correct linkage
adjustment from the temperature control lever to the heater control valve. The heater
control valve must open completely when the temperature control knob is set for
maximum heating.

c. Check for blockage and check for bends in the heater hoses. Blockages and bends in
the heater hoses would stop the flow of coolant through the system.

d. Inspect the petcocks that connect the heater hoses to the engine block. Make sure that
the petcocks are adjusted so that the petcocks are fully open.

2. Make repairs to the components or replace any damaged component.

Electrical System
Problem 2

There is no flow to the operator's compartment. The evaporator blower motors do not
operate when the fan switch is activated.

1. Perform the following procedure:

a. Inspect the circuit breaker or inspect the fuses for an open circuit.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 16

b. Perform a visual inspection of all wire connections. Use the electrical schematic for
the respective machine.

c. Check for blockages at the fan blade.

d. Check for the proper function of the fan switch at each setting. The evaporator blower
motor will run at each setting. The evaporator blower motor should be operating in
the cold mode and in the heating mode.

e. Use a 5P-7277 Voltage Tester or use a 9U-7330 Multimeter in order to check the
voltages in all components of the electrical system. Refer to the electrical schematic
section for additional information for the machine.

2. If necessary, make repairs or replace the components.

Test Procedure for Testing Electrical Components in the Air


Conditioning System
The air conditioning systems on Caterpillar machines use pressure switches in order to protect the
air conditioning system. Some air conditioning systems on Caterpillar machines use pressure
switches and the on delay timer assembly for the refrigerant compressor in order to protect the air
conditioning system. Arc suppressors protect other electrical components in the air conditioning
system. Arc suppressors are applied in order to discharge electrical inductance when the
compressor disengages. Failure of the arc suppressor can affect the reliability of the pressure
switch. Failure of the arc suppressor may cause failure of the pressure switch.

The following procedures are for the testing of the on delay timer assembly, pressure switches,
and components of the arc suppressor.

On Delay Timer Assembly for the Refrigerant Compressor Tests

In order to diagnose a faulty on delay timer assembly for the refrigerant compressor, the engine
start switch must be in the ON position and the air conditioning switch activated.

Note: The on delay timer assembly will delay the power supply to the compressor clutch coil for
30 seconds after the air conditioning switch is activated.

2. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter to DC voltage. Connect the positive probe to pin (4) on
the wiring harness and connect the negative probe to a suitable ground. The multimeter
should read 24 volts.

Note: If the voltage is below 18 volts or the voltage is above 32 volts the on delay timer
assembly will not supply power to the compressor.

3. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter to OHMS. Connect the positive probe to pin location
(2) on the wiring harness and connect the negative probe to a suitable chassis ground. The
multimeter will display OL if the ground is not present.

4. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter OHMS. Connect the positive probe to pin location (1)
on the wiring harness and connect the negative probe to a suitable chassis ground. If the
multimeter displays OL one of the three switches are open. Check each of the switches if an
open condition occurs.

Note: There must be refrigerant in the air conditioning system in order to close both of the
pressure switches.

5. In order to check that power is getting from the on delay timer assembly to the compressor
clutch coil, reconnect the on delay timer assembly to the wiring harness. Set the 146-4080
Digital Multimeter to DC voltage. Remove the 2-pin connector from the compressor clutch
coil. Connect the negative probe to a suitable chassis ground. Check each one of the two
pins on the wiring harness for voltage. One of the two pins should supply 24 volts.

6. In order to check the ground path from the compressor clutch coil to the chassis, turn off the
air conditioning switch in the cab. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter OHMS. Remove the
2-pin connector from the compressor clutch coil. Connect the negative lead to a suitable
ground. Check each of the two pins on the 2-pin connectors for continuity. One of the two
pins should display OL.

7. If both the correct voltage and ground are present check the resistance of the compressor
clutch coil. Refer to the Service Manual, SENR 3334, "Refrigerant Compressor" section in
Specifications.

Pressure Switch Tests

Test Procedure for 114-5333 Pressure Switch and 114-5334 Pressure Switch (NORMALLY
OPEN)

Pressure switches are used in order to protect the air conditioning compressor. The two most
commonly used pressure switches are the 114-5333 Pressure Switch and the 114-5334 Pressure
Switch. The only difference between the two switches is the connector. Only one of these switches
is used per machine. The high pressure and low pressure switches have three possible switch
positions which are given below:

OPEN - System pressure is low.

CLOSED - System pressure is correct.

OPEN - System pressure is high.

The two OPEN positions of the pressure switch protect the air conditioning system. The OPEN
position prevents the compressor from actuating when potentially harmful pressures exist in the
system. The CLOSED position is the normal operating switch position. The following table
contains the logic for the pressure switches:

Use the following procedures in order to test the pressure switch:

1. Disconnect the pressure switch from the machine harness.

2. Connect the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter to the two connector pins. Set the multimeter to
the OHMS test mode.

3. Measure the resistance of the pressure switch.

4. If the system pressure is between 275 kPa (40 psi) and 1750 kPa (254 psi), the multimeter
will display a value that is less than 1 ohm.

5. If the resistance that is displayed is a value of OL (high resistance), and the system pressure
is within acceptable limits, replace the pressure switch.

6. When the pressure switch fails, test the arc suppressor for proper operation.

7. If the pressure switch is removed, make sure that the wires on the new pressure switch are
tie-wrapped. Securing the pressure switch prevents damage that may be caused by vibration.

Note: The multimeter may display OL if the contacts on the pressure switch are dirty. The
contacts on the pressure switch can become dirty if the arc suppressor is no longer functioning.

Correct Mounting of Arc Suppressors

Certain arc suppressors may experience failure of the wire leads due to vibration if the arc
suppressor is not properly supported.

Use a 2U-4497 Strap to tie-wrap the arc suppressor. The arc suppressor should be securely tie-
wrapped to a stationary support in order to prevent any motion of the body of the arc suppressor.
Additionally, the connectors on both ends of the arc suppressor should be secured.

A suitable bracket for supporting an arc suppressor is the 116-6100 Plate. The addition of a 9R-
2926 Plate should permit the mounting of the 116-6100 Plate around obstacles. Use the 9R-2926
Plate if the 116-6100 Plate cannot be installed directly in an existing application.

The Sure Seal connectors on the 3E-9169 Arc Suppressor and the 105-8827 Arc Suppressor
should be secured with two 9G-9150 Clips in order to prevent movement of the connectors
relative to the body of the arc suppressor. The DT connectors on the 130-0956 Arc Suppressor and
130-8134 Arc Suppressor should be secured with two 9U-2297 Clips. The clips should be bolted
through the slotted holes on the 116-6100 Plate .

The 106-8704 Arc Suppressor is an integral arc suppressor. The integral arc suppressor can be
found on the newer machines. The 106-8704 Arc Suppressor is lighter than the other arc
suppressors. The 106-8704 Arc Suppressor can be strapped directly to the wiring harnesses that
are connected to the arc suppressor.

12. Install a new compressor. New compressors are shipped with the correct amount of oil
inside the compressor. Do not add extra oil. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly,
SENR3334, "Refrigerant Compressor - Remove and Install".

Note: Compressors that are new or remanufactured are shipped with the correct amount of
refrigerant oil in the system.

False Seizure of the Compressor


Table 1
Required Tools
Part Number Part Description
1U-8590 Spanner Wrench

On the initial start-up of the air conditioner system, slipping drive belts and broken drive belts
may be experienced if the air conditioner system has not been used for an extended period of time.
Also, scored clutch surfaces may be experienced. This would indicate a seized compressor.
However, replacement of the compressor may not be necessary.

Changes in temperature can cause expansion of the refrigerant in the compressor during extended
periods of nonuse. Also, changes in temperature can cause contraction of the refrigerant in the
compressor during extended periods of nonuse. During this movement, lubricating oil that is
carried by the refrigerant migrates. The lubricating oil moves away from highly polished surfaces
in the compressor. Without lubricating oil at the polished surfaces, the polished surfaces rub
together. This can appear as a seized compressor.

The compressor should be checked for seizure before the compressor is replaced. Use the
procedures that follow in order to check the compressor for seizure.

1. With a spanner wrench on the clutch drive plate, rock the shaft in the opposite direction of
normal rotation.

2. After the clutch drive plate is movable, rotate the clutch drive plate at least three complete
revolutions in the counterclockwise direction.

3. Start the engine. Operate the compressor for a minimum of one minute.

This procedure will not correct a seized compressor. However, this procedure should be
attempted before you replace a compressor that has been idle for a month or longer.

Performance Checks for the Air Conditioning System


A performance check of the air conditioning system must be made with a manifold gauge set. The
manifold gauge set must be connected to the service ports on the compressor.

Note: Before you conduct a performance check, refer to the Service Manual, SENR3334, "Visual
Inspection for all Machines" section.

Refer to the Service Manual, SENR3334, "Machine Preparation for Troubleshooting" section
before service work is performed on the air conditioning system.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 22

1. Install the manifold gauge set. Refer to the Service manual, SENR3334, "Installing the
Manifold Gauge Set" section.

2. Start the engine and operate the engine at 1000 rpm. Move the temperature control knob to
the maximum cool position. Put the fan switch in the HIGH position on the AIR
CONDITIONING side. In order to stabilize the system, operate the system for a minimum
of ten minutes. Operate the engine at 1000 rpm.

During normal operation of the air conditioning system in 21°C (70°F) weather, the
discharge pressure will be 820 to 1300 kPa (120 to 190 psi). The pressure will be 70 to 130
kPa (10 to 20 psi). Refer to Table 2 for temperature range. The outside temperature and
humidity will have an effect on the pressures. If the outside temperature is high, the
discharge pressure will be high.

In very hot weather, the suction and the discharge pressures will be high. In cooler weather,
the suction and the discharge pressure will be normal or the pressure can be lower.

If the suction and the discharge pressures are not within the normal operating range, refer to
the "Problem Solving" section.

Note: Most system failures are caused by improper refrigerant charge. Refrigerant charge should
be measured by weight only. Do not use gauge pressure when you charge the system with
refrigerant.

Problem Solving
The following problem solving section is provided for identifying and correcting problems that
may occur in the air conditioning system. Several problems can have the same system condition or
similar system conditions. Before you start the procedure in order to correct the problems, it is
necessary to be complete in the diagnosis of the problems.

The problem solving procedures are based on the system condition during the problem. In order to
indicate the system pressures, the manifold gauge set must be installed. The manifold gauge set is
used only in order to diagnose problems. The refrigerant lines can give an indication of system
operation that is abnormal. Temperature differences between the high pressure side and the low
pressure side can be an indication of abnormal operation in a line. This can also be found by cold
spots (frost) on the line. The temperature of the air flow from the evaporator will also indicate a
problem with the system. Knowing the complete system condition is an important step in making
a correct diagnosis.

Note: R-12 air conditioning system problem diagnosis requires a combination of symptoms or
indicators in order to correctly identify problems and solve problems.

Problem Solving Procedure

1. Install the manifold gauge set. Refer to the Service Manual, SENR3334, "Installing the
Manifold Gauge Set" section in Testing and Adjusting.

2. Run the engine at 1000 rpm. Put the air conditioner temperature control knob in the
Maximum COOL position. Put the fan switch in the HIGH position on the AIR
CONDITIONING side. In order to stabilize the system, operate the engine for a minimum
of ten minutes.

3. Place a thermometer near an air vent inside the cab. Record the temperature.

4. Adjust the engine speed to approximately 1300 to 1400 rpm. Record the readings on the
following gauges: low pressure gauges, high pressure gauges and thermometer. The gauge
readings will be a partial indication of the system condition.

Note: When the ambient temperature is above 21°C (70°F), a low pressure gauge reading of
70 to 138 kPa (10 to 20 psi) is a normal operating pressure for the air conditioning system.
Also, when the ambient temperature is above 21°C (70°F), a high pressure gauge reading of
820 to 1300 kPa (120 to 190 psi) is a normal operating pressure for the air conditioning
system. In very hot weather, the low pressure readings and the high pressure readings will
be at the high end of the normal operating range. In cooler weather, the low pressure reading
will be in the middle to the low end of the normal operating range, while the high pressure
reading will be low. For the correct gauge reading in relation to ambient temperature
condition, refer to Table 2.

Note: All pressures are given as a guide only. Weight is the only absolute means of
determining proper refrigerant charge. Improper refrigerant charge will cause
premature failure of the compressor.

Refrigerant Recovery
SMCS - 1809-576

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

If service work is required on an air conditioning system, the refrigerant must be recovered first before
components are removed or installed. Use the following procedure:

1. Use the 138-6629 Refrigerant Identifier in order to verify that the refrigerant that is in the
air conditioning system is R-12.

2. Connect the manifold gauge set to the service ports near the refrigerant compressor. The
service ports for charging are located on the refrigerant lines. Connect the low pressure hose
to the service port on the suction side of the compressor. Connect the high pressure hose to
the service port on the discharge side of the compressor. Make sure that the valved
couplings are turned counterclockwise for installation. Then, turn the valved couplings
clockwise in order to open the valves.

3. Turn the pressure valves clockwise and make sure that both pressure valves on the manifold
gauge set are closed.

4. Place a clean rag over the charging hose fitting that is loosened at the manifold gauge set.
This will prevent the spraying of compressor oil. Open the low pressure valve on the gauge
set about 1/2 turn. Keep the valve open for 2 to 3 seconds in order to flush air from the low
pressure hose. This will also flush air from the gauge set. Close the low pressure valve on
the gauge set. Repeat this process for the high pressure valve. Tighten the charging hose
fitting at the manifold gauge set.

Note: Use the refrigerant identifier. The refrigerant identifier will prevent refrigerants that are not
R-12 from contaminating the recovery and charging tools.

If replacement of a component is necessary or repair to a component is necessary, the refrigerant


in the system must be recovered. Also, if the system has lost any charge after a long period of
time, the refrigerant in the system must be recovered. It is necessary to perform the evacuating
procedure in order to delete the system of all air and moisture. A complete charge must never be
given to a system without first performing the evacuating procedure. Before evacuating the
system, refer to the following manual.

• Testing and Adjusting, SENR3334, "Refrigerant Leakage - Test"

• Testing and Adjusting, SENR3334, "Refrigerant Recovery"

• Testing and Adjusting, SENR3334, "Refrigerant Compressor Oil - Check"

If the system has been left open for more than 1/2 hour, the system has been exposed to air or
moisture and a new receiver-dryer, an in-line dryer or a desiccant accumulator needs to be
installed. Moisture will combine with metals in the refrigerant system and this will produce highly
corrosive by-products. The by-products are oxides, iron hydroxide, and aluminum hydroxide.
Moisture can freeze the expansion valve and moisture can freeze the orifice tube. If there is water
in the system the water must be removed. Remove the water by pumping the system with a
vacuum pump and boiling the water. Refer to Table 1 that is shown below.

The time for the evacuation process will increase under the following conditions:

• The air conditioning system has been rebuilt.

• The air conditioning system has been flushed.

• The air conditioning system has new components.

• The air conditioning system has been retrofitted.

Table 1
Boiling Point of Water Under Vacuum
Temperature of Work Area Vacuum That Is Required In Order To Boil Water In An
(°C (°F)) Air Conditioning System (m bar (Hg))

38 °C (100 °F) 95 kPa (28 in Hg)

32 °C (89.60 °F) 96.5 kPa (28.50 in Hg)

27 °C (81 °F) 97.5 kPa (28.80 in Hg)

21 °C (70 °F) 98.8 kPa (29.20 in Hg)

Note: After the leak test is completed, the system must be evacuated for a minimum of 30
minutes. In order to correctly evacuate the system, the vacuum gauge must be less than three
inches away from the system port. If the gauge is more than three inches away from the system
port, pull a vacuum and allow the system to equalize for ten minutes. This will ensure an accurate
gauge reading.

Note: The evacuating procedure removes air and moisture from the system. Do not use the
vacuum pump primarily to indicate a system leak.

10. After 95 kPa (28 in hg) to 98 kPa (29 in hg) vacuum has been reached and held for an
additional 90 minutes, close valve (1) and close valve (2) completely. Turn the power
switch on the vacuum pump to the OFF position. The maximum amount of vacuum loss in
five minutes must not be more than 7 kPa (2 in hg). Excessive vacuum loss is an indication
of a possible leak in the system. Refer to the Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant Leakage -
Test" section. Perform the procedures that are indicated. Repair all leaks and repeat Step 1
of the evacuating procedure.

11. If the vacuum loss does not exceed 7 kPa (2 in hg) in five minutes, the system is then ready
for a complete charge. Refer to the Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant System - Charge"
section. Perform the procedures that are indicated.

Refrigerant Leakage - Test


SMCS - 1809-081

Leak Detector

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that

208-1374 Refrigerant Leak Detector 1

The 208-1374 Refrigerant Leak Detectors are designed in order to detect leaks as small as 7.4 mL
(.25 oz) per year of refrigerant in the air conditioning system. Perform the following procedure in
order to determine if the system has a leak.

The system must contain at least 345 kPa (50 psi) of pressure. Install the manifold gauge set. The
manifold gauge set can determine if pressure exists in the system. A leak test can be performed if
the system indicates pressure.

Note: Refrigerant vapor is heavier than air. For best results, place the sensor tip directly below
possible leaks.

Note: Leaks in the high pressure side of the system are more easily found if the air conditioner is
operated for a few minutes. The leak test must be performed immediately after the unit is turned
OFF. The leak test for the high pressure side is performed before the pressures in the system
equalize. Leaks in the low pressure side of the system are more easily found if the air conditioner
has been turned OFF for several minutes. The leak test for the low pressure side is performed after
the pressures in the system equalize.

1. Move the sensor tip along possible leak points at a rate of one inch per second.

2. It may not be necessary to recover refrigerant if a loose fitting or a loose connection is


causing a leak. Tighten the loose connection and perform the performance check procedure.
If necessary, add refrigerant to the air conditioning system. Refer to the Testing and
Adjusting, SENR3334, "Refrigerant System - Charge" section for the proper procedure.

3. If the repair of a leak calls for the removal or the replacement of a component, refer to
Disassembly and Assembly, SENR3334.

A special refrigerant oil is used in the air conditioning system. The oil mixes completely with the
refrigerant so that all the components receive lubrication. A check of the refrigerant oil in the
compressor will give an indication of the amount of oil that is in the system.

Reference: Refer to System Operations, "Refrigerant Compressor" for more information.

Note: Generally, the oil in the compressor is checked when there is evidence of a major loss of oil.
The following conditions may cause the loss of oil:

• Broken refrigerant hose

• Hose fitting (leaks)

• Badly leaking compressor seal

• Component damage

Complete Check of Compressor Oil


When the replacement of a component is necessary, follow the procedures below. The procedure
determines the amount of refrigerant oil (lost oil) that is needed in the compressor.

1. Operate the engine at 1000 rpm. Set the temperature on maximum cooling setting. Move the
fan speed switch to HIGH. The system will stabilize in a minimum of 10 minutes.

2. Stop the engine. Remove the refrigerant charge from the system. Install a plug in all open
lines. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant Recovery" for the proper procedure.

3. Remove the compressor from the machine. Place protective caps on all fittings and hoses.

4. Place the compressor in a horizontal position so oil plug (7) is facing downward. Remove
oil plug (7) from the compressor. Drain the oil into a clean container. Rock the compressor
back and forth in order to remove all of the oil. Also, rotate the compressor shaft in order to
drain the rest of the oil that is in the oil sump. Inspect the oil for the following items:

◦ Contaminants

◦ Metal chips

◦ Rubber particles

◦ Foreign material

Dispose of the oil in a suitable manner. Use the following list as a guide for adding oil into
the compressor:

◦ If the amount of oil that is drained from the compressor is 118 mL (4 fl oz) to 237 mL
(8 fl oz), put only 118 mL (4 fl oz) of oil back into the compressor. Never add more
than 237 mL (8 fl oz) of oil to the compressor.

◦ If the amount of oil that is drained from the compressor is less than 118 mL (4 fl oz),
add new refrigerant oil. The total amount of oil in the compressor should not exceed
118 mL (4 fl oz).

If too much oil has been added to the system and a total of more than 325 mL (11 fl oz) of
oil is in the system, the cooling capacity of the system will be reduced. If too little oil has
been added to the system, the compressor may fail due to a lack of lubrication.

If the failure of a component causes particles of metal or other foreign material to be present
in the system, it is necessary to flush the system. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Air
Conditioning System Troubleshooting" for the proper diagnostics.

Note:

a. When possible, add oil to the compressor through the opening for the oil plug (7). If
the oil cannot be added through the opening for the oil plug, inject the oil through the
discharge port that is for charging. The compressor must be positioned so that the
refrigerant oil will not flow out of service valves (5) and (6). Do not rest the
compressor on the compressor shaft. Turn the compressor shaft by hand when you fill
the compressor. The oil will slowly flow into the compressor. Only use refrigerant oil
that is approved and recommended.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 4

b. Add oil to any components that are being installed.

5. After the correct amount of refrigerant oil has been added to the system, install the
compressor and the drive belt. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant System -
Charge" for the proper procedure.

Charging the System


Note: An accurate refrigerant charge may only be determined by weight. Pressures can not be
used in order to determine if the air conditioning system is correctly charged. Do not add or
remove part of the refrigerant.

Note: Never charge liquid or gas through the discharge side (high side) of the system when the
engine is in operation.

Note: Refer to the Specifications, "System Capacities for Refrigerant" section for the proper
capacity. Also, refer to the Service Manual, SENR3334, "Identifying the Air Conditioning
System" section.

Note: If the engine is running, charge the system with refrigerant gas through the low pressure
side. Never charge liquid refrigerant through the suction side (low pressure side) of the air
conditioning system. If liquid refrigerant is charged through the suction side (low pressure side),
the compressor will become damaged. If the engine is not running, charge with liquid or gas
through the high pressure side.

Note: Before you charge the system, these important items should be checked.

1. Condenser and evaporator

◦ Inspect the condenser and inspect the evaporator for foreign material that would
inhibit air flow such as dirt, insects, plastic bags, etc.

◦ With condensers that are mounted on the roof and with remote mounted condensers,
always check that both fan motors are running. Check for restrictions. A clean
condenser will lead to improved life for the compressor.

2. Check for a loose belt on the compressor.

3. Clean the fresh air filter and clean the recirculation filter.

4. Check the moisture indicator, if equipped. The moisture indicator is located on either the
receiver-dryer or the in-line dryer. If the moisture indicator is pink or white, there is
moisture in the system. Replace the receiver-dryer. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly,
SENR3334, "Receiver-Dryer - Remove and Install".

5. Check the condensate tube on the evaporator. Make sure that the tube is not plugged and
that the valve is properly in place.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 10 of 16

Note: Before an accurate reading for moisture can be attained, a new receiver-dryer requires
2 to 3 hours of operation.

Refer to the Troubleshooting, "Machine Preparation for Troubleshooting" section in testing


and adjusting before service work is performed on the air conditioning system.

Note: The preferred method for charging the air conditioning system is listed below.

◦ Recover the refrigerant.

◦ Evacuate the system.

◦ Charge the system with the correct amount of refrigerant. Measure the refrigerant by
weight.

Note: After the system has been recovered and the system has been evacuated, the system
needs to be charged with the correct amount of refrigerant. Measure the refrigerant by
weight. Refer to the Specifications, "System Capacities for Refrigerant" section for the
proper capacity. Also, refer to the Service Manual, SENR3334, "Identifying the Air
Conditioning System" section.

Complete Charge of the System from a Refrigerant Tank


with a Scale
The use of a refrigerant tank and a scale is necessary in order to charge the system. Use the
procedure that follows to charge the system.

Note: When you charge the system with a liquid, ensure that the engine is not running.

1. In order to find the refrigerant capacity for the system that needs a refrigerant charge, refer
to the Specifications, "System Capacities for Refrigerant" section. Also, refer to the Service
Manual, SENR3334, "Identifying the Air Conditioning System" section.

2. Hand tighten charging hose (5) from the manifold gauge set directly to the valve (4) on
refrigerant tank (10). Open the valve (4) on top of refrigerant tank (10). This allows the flow
of refrigerant through the charging hose (5) to the manifold gauge set (3) .

3. Loosen the charging hose (5) at the manifold gauge set (3) for two to three seconds. Then
tighten the connection. This procedure will purge the air from the line.

4. Place the refrigerant tank (10) on the scale (11) so that the valve (4) is at the bottom. Check
the weight of the tank.

5. Open the high pressure valve (2) on the manifold gauge set (3). This action allows the liquid
refrigerant to charge the system through the high pressure side of the compressor.

6. Check the weight of the refrigerant tank (10) often. The weight will decrease as the
refrigerant leaves the tank and the refrigerant enters the system. When the required amount
of refrigerant (system capacity) has entered the system, close the valve (4) and close the
high pressure valve (2). Closing the valves stops the flow of the refrigerant.

Note: A heater blanket may be required when you charge an air conditioning system with a
partially full refrigerant tank.

7. In order to ensure correct system operation, disconnect charging hose (5) and conduct a
performance check.

2. Open suction valve (1) in order to release the refrigerant into low pressure hose (6). Slowly
add refrigerant until the bubbles disappear in the sight glass. After the bubbles disappear,
add the proper amount of refrigerant for the receiver-dryer on your machine.

Note: A heater blanket may be required when you charge an air conditioning system with a
partially full refrigerant tank.

3. Close suction valve (1) in order to prevent the flow of additional refrigerant to the
compressor.

Note: If suction valve (1) is opened completely, the low pressure gauge reading will appear
excessively high until the system becomes fully charged.

4. If the pressure on the suction side becomes too high, the system is overcharged. If the
discharge pressure becomes too high, the system is overcharged. Close the valve on the
refrigerant tank completely. Closing the valve will shut off the flow of refrigerant to the
charging hose (5). Shut down the engine. Recover the charge and evacuate the system.
Recharge the system to the correct charge by weight.

5. The gauge reading for low pressure valve (1) should be within the normal range after you
charge the system. The gauge reading for high pressure valve (2) should be within the
normal range after you charge the system. If the gauge readings are within normal range, the
system is properly charged. Close the valve on the refrigerant tank completely. Move the air
conditioning controls to the OFF position and stop the engine.

192-2331 Leak Detection Lamp Gp 1

In the middle of 1999, Caterpillar began installing dye in the refrigeration systems of Caterpillar
machines. The dye is used in order to assist in identifying points of leakage in the refrigeration
system.

Finding leaks and repairing leaks from refrigerant is important since the air conditioner is a closed
circuit system.

The system must contain at least 0.4 kg (.88 lb) of refrigerant. Install the manifold gauge set. The
manifold gauge set can determine if pressure exists in the system. A leak test can be performed if
the system indicates pressure.

Note: Refrigerant vapor is heavier than air. For best results, place the black light directly below
possible leaks.

Note: Leaks that are in the high-pressure side of the system are more easily found if the air
conditioner is operated for 5 to 10 minutes. The leak test must be performed immediately after the
unit is turned OFF. The leak test for the high-pressure side is performed before the pressures in the
system equalize. Leaks that are in the low-pressure side of the system are more easily found if the
air conditioner has been turned OFF for 5 to 10 minutes. The leak test for the low-pressure side is
performed after the pressures in the system equalize.

1. Move the black light along possible leak points. When a leak is present, the black light will
illuminate the dye that is in the refrigerant.

Note: Leaks that are indicated by the presence of dye should always be confirmed with
an electronic leak detector.

2. If a leak is found in the air conditioning system, use a 4C-2964 Refrigerant Leak Detector in
order to confirm the leak that was detected by the use of the black light.

3. Repair the leak In the air conditioning system and clean the area with 192-4727 Dye
Cleaning Solution .

Leak Detector
The 208-1374 Refrigerant Leak Detectors are designed in order to detect leaks as small as 7.4 mL
(.25 oz) per year of refrigerant in the air conditioning system. Perform the following procedure in
order to determine if the system has a leak.

The system must contain at least 0.4 kg (.88 lb) of refrigerant. Install the manifold gauge set. The
manifold gauge set can determine if pressure exists in the system. A leak test can be performed if
the system indicates pressure.

Note: Refrigerant vapor is heavier than air. For best results, place the sensor tip directly below
possible leaks.

Note: Leaks in the high-pressure side of the system are more easily found if the air conditioner is
operated for a few minutes. The leak test must be performed immediately after the unit is turned
OFF. The leak test for the high-pressure side is performed before the pressures in the system
equalize. Leaks in the low-pressure side of the system are more easily found if the air conditioner
has been turned OFF for several minutes. The leak test for the low-pressure side is performed after
the pressures in the system equalize.

1. Move the sensor tip along possible leak points at a rate of 1 inch per second.

2. It may not be necessary to recover refrigerant if a loose fitting or a loose connection is


causing a leak. Tighten the loose connection and perform the performance check procedure.
If necessary, add refrigerant to the air conditioning system. Refer to the Testing and
Adjusting, "Refrigerant System - Charge" section for the proper procedure.

3. If the repair of a leak calls for the removal or the replacement of a component, refer to the
Disassembly and Assembly, "Machine Preparation for Disassembly and Assembly" within
this manual.

Note: Refrigerants that are not approved by Caterpillar may have higher leakage rates.

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

Personal injury can result from hot coolant. Any contact with hot
coolant or with steam can cause severe burns. Allow cooling system
components to cool before the cooling system is drained.

1. Use the 138-6629 Refrigerant Identifier in order to verify that the refrigerant that is in the
air conditioning system is R134a.

2. Connect the manifold gauge set to the service ports near the refrigerant compressor. The
service ports for charging are located on the refrigerant lines. Connect the low pressure hose
to the service port on the suction side of the compressor. Connect the high pressure hose to
the service port on the discharge side of the compressor. Make sure that the valved
couplings are turned counterclockwise for installation. Then, turn the valved couplings
clockwise in order to open the valves.

3. Turn the pressure valves clockwise and make sure that both pressure valves on the manifold
gauge set are closed.

4. Place a clean rag over the charging hose fitting that is loosened at the manifold gauge set.
This will prevent the spraying of compressor oil. Open the low pressure valve on the gauge
set about 1/2 turn. Keep the valve open for 2 to 3 seconds in order to flush air from the low
pressure hose. This will also flush air from the gauge set. Close the low pressure valve on
the gauge set. Repeat this process for the high pressure valve. Tighten the charging hose
fitting at the manifold gauge set.

Note: Use the refrigerant identifier. The refrigerant identifier will prevent refrigerants that are not
R134a from contaminating the recovery and charging tools.

System Contamination and Flush Procedure

NOTICE

Debris in the air conditioning refrigerant circuit can cause the


compressor to fail. Use the following procedure for cleaning and
flushing the system.

This procedure provides a method and instructions to remove


contamination from the air conditioning system refrigeration circuit
and individual components. A primary instance where a system flush is
necessary is any time a refrigerant compressor has had an internal
failure, indicated by a locked or seized condition. The air conditioning
system refrigeration circuit and components must be cleaned and
flushed to remove any particles of metal or other foreign material.
Failure to flush the air conditioning circuit will damage or shorten the
operating life of the replacement compressor.

A general flow chart of the flush procedure is shown in Illustration 2. The detailed procedure is
shown in Step 1 through Step 19 below.

Introduction
Oil supplies the necessary lubrication in the refrigerant circuit for the compressor. Too little oil in
the circuit can cause the compressor to seize. Too much oil decreases the amount of cooling that is
supplied to the operator.

The procedures outlined in this publication describe a process for ensuring the appropriate
concentration of oil in the refrigerant circuit when oil has been removed from the circuit. All
systems are charged with oil from the factory. This process assumes that the factory fill oil amount
is still in the system. This process assumes that a minimal amount of oil has been lost due to
leakage of pressure relief.

Check of A/C System Oil


Whenever the refrigerant or a component for the air conditioning unit is removed, some of the
refrigerant oil is also removed. The correct amount of oil must be replaced. The following three
examples are conditions refrigerant oil must be replaced.

Note: If oil has leaked from the system prior to service, then the system oil charge cannot be
accurately determined. Proper oil charge can now only be determined by flushing and using
method for oil charge after system flush. refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant System
Flush""Oil Charge After System Flush".

• (A) Oil that is removed from the system during refrigerant recovery. Refer to Testing and
Adjusting, "Refrigerant Recovery" in order to see the correct procedure for recovering
refrigerant. Record the amount of oil that is collected during the recovery.

• (B) Oil that is removed from the system due to component replacement, other than the A/C
compressor. Refer to "Oil Capacities for Component Replacements". Refer to Table 1.

• (C) Oil is removed due to replacing the A/C compressor. Refer to "Replacing the A/C
Compressor".

Replacing a Component
When the replacement of a component is necessary, follow the procedures below.

Note: If the failure of a component, causes particles of metal or other foreign material to be
introduced into the system. flushing the system will be necessary. Refer to Troubleshooting,
"Refrigerant System Flush" to make sure of proper diagnostics. Replacing both the orifice tube
and receiver dryer is recommended in the event of A/C system contamination. Flushing of the A/C
lines, condenser, and evaporator components will be necessary to safe guard installation of a new
compressor. Failure to do so could void component warranties.

1. If, the A/C system is operable operate the engine at 1000 rpm. Set the temperature on
maximum cooling setting. Move the fan speed switch to HIGH. The system will stabilize in
a minimum of 10 minutes.

2. Stop the engine. Remove the refrigerant charge from the system. Refer to Testing and
Adjusting, "Refrigerant Recovery".

3. Remove any components as needed. Install a plug in all open lines as necessary.

4. Replaced any damaged components

5. Refer to table 1 to determine amount of oil volume of replaced components.

6. Add the amount of oil from recovery plus the amount for each replaced component back to
the system.

7. Perform refrigerant system evacuation procedures. Refer to Testing and Adjusting,


"Refrigerant System Evacuate ".

Replacing the A/C Compressor


If the A/C compressor is being replaced, the refrigerant oil (PAG, POE) must be adjusted by using
the procedure that is outlined below. If refrigerant is still contained within the air conditioning
system, then follow the steps for recovery.

1. Perform the procedures outlined in Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant Recovery".

2. Remove the old compressor from the air conditioning system. Place protective caps on all
fittings and hoses.

3. Place the compressor in a horizontal position on a bench or suitable work surface so oil plug
(7) is facing downward. Remove oil plug (7) from the compressor. Drain the oil into a clean
metered container. Rock the compressor back and forth in order to remove all of the oil.
Also, rotate the compressor shaft in order to drain the rest of the oil that is in the oil sump.
Record the volume of drained refrigerant. Inspect the oil for the following items:

◦ Contaminants

◦ Metal chips

◦ Rubber particles

◦ Foreign material

Note: If, the failure of a compressor causes particles of metal or other foreign material to be
introduced into the system. flushing the system will be necessary. Refer to Troubleshooting,
"Refrigerant System Flush" for the proper diagnostics. Replacing both the orifice tube and
accumulator /receiver dryer is recommended in the event of A/C system contamination.
Flushing of the A/C lines, condenser, and evaporator components will be necessary to safe
guard installation of a new compressor. Failure to do so could void component warranties.

4. Record the amount of oil from old compressor.

5. Refer to specifications for new compressor to determine type oil and compressor volume.

Note: Do not use Polyalkylene Glycol (PAG) oil (134A ) in 294-8140 Compressor
Assembly . Use Polyol Ester (POE) oil. The use of any other will cause rapid dielectric
failure of the compressor.

Note: The new A/C compressor will already contain oil inside. Certain new compressors
will contain a volume of oil of 180 ml, while other new compressors contain a volume of
300 ml.

6. Determine the amount of oil required by the A/C system (A/C System Oil) . Add the oil
from recovery (A) , plus the amount of oil for other components being replaced (B) per
Table 1, plus the amount of oil removed from the old compressor (C) . The sum of the
following: A+B+C = A/C System Oil.

7. Finally, take the value for New Compressor Oil and subtract A/C System Oil to determine
the amount of oil that must be drained. The oil must be drained from the new compressor
prior to installation to prevent an oil overcharge. New Compressor Oil - A/C System Oil =
Oil amount to drain from new compressor. Example:

◦ Amount of oil from recovery (A) equals 60 mL (2 oz).

◦ If the dryer was replaced, the amount of oil due to component replacement (B) equals
30 mL (1 oz).

◦ Oil drained from the old compressor (C) equals 90 mL (3 oz).

◦ Amount of oil contained inside new compressor as read from the label (New
Compressor Oil) equals 300 mL (10.2 oz).

Then A/C System Oil = A + B+ C = 60 + 30 + 90 = 180 mL (6.1 oz).

Finally, New Compressor Oil - A/C System Oil = 300 – 180 = 120 mL (4.1 oz).

In the above example, 120 mL (4.1 oz) of oil should be drained from the new compressor.

Note: In some instances the above calculation could yield a negative value. In these
instances the amount of oil should NOT be drained from the compressor, but rather the oil
should be ADDED to the A/C system.

8. Install the new A/C compressor.

9. Perform refrigerant system evacuation procedures. Refer to Testing and Adjusting,


"Refrigerant System Evacuate".

Refrigerant Compressor - Test


SMCS - 1802-081

Identifying compressors that function is the purpose of this instruction. Compressors that function
should be identified before the compressors are removed from a machine. Compressors that function
should produce both high pressure and low pressure. If the compressor fails any one of Steps 3, 5, 7,
or 8, then the compressor is considered to be a "failed" compressor. Indicate the steps which were
failed by the compressor in the story for a warranty claim.

Note: If the compressor fails one of the steps, then the air conditioning system should be diagnosed
in order to find the root cause of the failure. The root cause of the failure should be repaired. If the
compressor is considered to be "good", then additional assistance with the diagnosis of the air
conditioning system can be found in Service Manual, "Air Conditioning and Heating R134a for all
Caterpillar Machines" or by contacting your Caterpillar dealer.

Procedures

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 8

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

Personal injury can result from hot coolant. Any contact with hot
coolant or with steam can cause severe burns. Allow cooling system
components to cool before the cooling system is drained.

1. Check the air filters. If the complaint of the customer is poor cooling of the cab, past
experience has shown that plugged air filters can often be the cause. Most air conditioning
systems have return air filters and fresh air filters. Be sure to check both the return air filters
and fresh air filters.

Air Filters Checked ? Yes or No.

2. Test the voltage. While the engine is running and the air conditioning is switched ON, check
the voltage at the compressor. The voltage at the compressor should be a minimum of
11.5VDC for a 12VDC system or 23 V for a 24VDC system. The routinely used electrical
loads should be turned ON. For example, a lighting system which is added by the customer
could cause available voltage to decrease below the minimum specification.

Voltage Checked ? Yes or No.

Measured Voltage Level: ____ (volts)

Note: When the air conditioning is switched ON, for air conditioning systems with a
Compressor Protection System (CPS), there is approximately a 30 second delay before a
voltage signal is detected at the compressor. Air conditioning systems with CPS can be
identified by the use of either the 169-7443 On Delay Timer As or the 212-2204 Air
Conditioner Control Gp . In most applications, the electronic control group is located near the
compressor.

3. Test the resistance. Measure resistance of the clutch coil at the compressor connector. For
12VDC models, measured resistance should be within -0.3 ohms to +1.1 ohms of the amount
which is listed in the Specifications section of Specifications, "Refrigerant Compressor". For
24VDC models, measured resistance should be within -1.3 ohms to +5.5 ohms of the amount
which is listed in Specification section of Specifications, "Refrigerant Compressor". The
resistance ranges which are listed above compensate for the effect of temperature on the clutch

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 8

coil. The values which are listed in the section of Specifications, "Refrigerant Compressor" are
nominal for 20 °C (68 °F).

Resistance Checked ? Yes or No.

Measured Level of Resistance: ____ (ohms)

4. Check the belt tension. For new belts and old belts, use the 144-0235 Belt Tension Gauge .
For a new belt installation, the initial belt tension for a compressor which drives the system
without an auto tensioning device should be 534 N (120 lb). For used belts, the belt tension
should be 400 N (90 lb).

Belt Tension Checked ? Yes or No.

Measured New Belt Tension: ____ (N) or (lbs)

Measured Old Belt Tension: ____ (N) or (lbs)

Accidental machine starting can cause injury or death to personnel


working on the machine.

To avoid accidental machine starting, turn the battery disconnect


switch to the OFF position and remove the key. If the machine is not
equipped with a battery disconnect switch, disconnect the battery cables
from the battery and tape the battery clamps.

Place a do not operate tag at the battery disconnect switch location to


inform personnel that the machine is being worked on.

Note: The electrical power supply to the compressor should be switched OFF in order to
perform this test.

5. Test the rotation. Rotate the compressor in the direction of belt travel by turning the nut on
the end of the main shaft of the compressor. Rotation should be smooth with no binding.

Rotation Checked ? Yes or No.

Rotation Smooth? Yes or No.

6. Check the charge level. Charge the air conditioning system as per Caterpillar specification or
an incorrect diagnosis will occur. Recovering, evacuating, and recharging with clean refrigerant
to the correct level is the best method of achieving the correct refrigerant charge for the system.
Charging the air conditioning system must be conducted by weighing refrigerant with a
calibrated scale in order to ensure accuracy. Also, be sure to replace the oil which was removed
during refrigerant recovery with new oil. Reference Specifications, "Refrigerant Compressor"
for procedures regarding refrigerant charging and capacity of Caterpillar air conditioning
systems.

Charge Level Checked ? Yes or No.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 8

Volume of Oil that was Removed During Recovery: ____ (ml) or (oz)

Weight of Refrigerant Charge: ____ (Kg) or (lbs)

7. Test for low pressure. The test for low pressure should be performed with ambient
temperatures of less than 30 °C (86 °F). Park the machine in an area that is not in direct
sunlight. Close all cab doors and windows. Block the flow of fresh air into the cab. If the air
conditioning system is so equipped, bypass the low-pressure switch . Start the machine.
Operate the machine at high idle. Turn ON the air conditioning. Set the cab blower on LOW.
After 10 to 15 minutes of operation, measure the low-side pressure at the refrigerant
compressor. If the pressure reading is less than 69 kPa (10 psi), then the suction valves of the
compressor are operating correctly.

Low Pressure Checked ? Yes or No.

Low Pressure Reading: ____ (kPa) or (Psi)

Note: If the cab temperature is above 25 °C (77 °F), the set the cab blower to HIGH in order to
reduce the temperature before starting the procedure.

8. Test for high pressure. Start the engine and set the speed at approximately 1200 rpm. Turn
ON the air conditioning. Place a sheet of cardboard over the condenser in order to block the
flow of air. Limiting the flow of air over the condenser will cause the discharge pressure of the
compressor to increase. Check if the discharge of the compressor is able to increase up to 2414
kPa (350 psi). Once the specified pressure is reached, immediately remove the cardboard. If the
compressor passes the test, the discharge valves are operating correctly.

High Pressure Checked ? Yes or No.

High Pressure Reading: ____ (kPa) or (Psi)

The functional test is now complete. If this test procedure results in inconclusive results, your
dealership Technical Communicator can report the problem by using the on-line Dealer Solution
Network. The Dealer Solution Network will provide your Technical Communicator with additional
troubleshooting support.

The engine start switch must be in the ON position, and the air conditioning switch must be activated
in order to diagnose a faulty on delay timer assembly for the refrigerant compressor.

Note: The on delay timer assembly will delay the power supply to the compressor clutch coil for 30
seconds after the air conditioning switch is activated.

1. Separate the four-pin connector from the wiring harness.

2. In order to check that power is getting from the on delay timer to the compressor, perform the
following steps:

a. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter Gp to DC voltage.

b. Connect the multimeter positive probe to pin 4 on the wiring harness.

c. Connect the multimeter negative probe to a suitable ground. The multimeter should read
24VDC for 24 V machines. The multimeter should read 12VDC for 12 V machines.

Note: On a 24 V system, if the voltage is below 22VDC or if the voltage is above


35VDC, the on delay timer will not supply power to the compressor. On 12 V systems,
the range is 9VDC to 24VDC.

3. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter Gp to OHMS. Connect the multimeter positive probe to
pin location 2 on the wiring harness. Connect the multimeter negative probe to a suitable
chassis ground. The multimeter will display "OL" if the ground is not present.

4. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter Gp to OHMS. Connect the multimeter positive probe to
pin location 1 on the wiring harness. Connect the multimeter negative probe to a suitable
chassis ground. If the multimeter displays "OL", one of the three switches is open. If an open
condition occurs, check each of the switches.

Note: There must be refrigerant in the air conditioning system in order to close both of the
pressure switches.

5. In order to check that power is getting from the on delay timer assembly to the compressor
clutch coil, reconnect the on delay timer assembly to the wiring harness.

a. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter Gp to DC voltage.

b. Remove the 2-pin connector from the compressor clutch coil.

c. Connect the negative probe to a suitable chassis ground.

d. Check each of the two pins on the wiring harness for voltage. On a 24 V system, one of
the pins should supply 24VDC. On a 12 V system, one of the pins should supply
12VDC.

6. In order to check the ground path from the compressor clutch coil to the chassis, perform the
following steps:

a. Turn OFF the air conditioning switch in the cab.

b. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter Gp to Ohms.

c. Remove the two-pin connector from the compressor clutch coil.

d. Connect the negative lead to a suitable ground.

Personal injury can result from hot coolant. Any contact with hot
coolant or with steam can cause severe burns. Allow cooling system
components to cool before the cooling system is drained.

If replacement of a component is necessary or repair to a component is necessary, the refrigerant


in the system must be recovered. Also, if the system has lost any charge after a long period of
time, the refrigerant in the system must be recovered. It is necessary to perform the evacuating
procedure in order to delete the system of all air and moisture. A complete charge must never be
given to a system without first performing the evacuating procedure. Before evacuating the
system, refer to the following manual.

• Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant Leakage - Test"

• Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant Recovery"

• Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant Compressor Oil - Check"

If the system has been left open for more than 1/2 hour, the system has been exposed to air or
moisture and a new receiver-dryer, an in-line dryer or a desiccant accumulator needs to be
installed. Moisture will combine with metals in the refrigerant system and this will produce highly
corrosive by-products. The by-products are oxides, iron hydroxide, and aluminum hydroxide.
Moisture can freeze the expansion valve and moisture can freeze the orifice tube. If there is water
in the system the water must be removed. Remove the water by pumping the system with a
vacuum pump and boiling the water. Refer to Table 1 that is shown below.

The time for the evacuation process will increase under the following conditions:

• The air conditioning system has been rebuilt.

• The air conditioning system has been flushed.

• The air conditioning system has new components.

• The air conditioning system has been retrofitted.

Note: After the leak test is completed, the system must be evacuated for a minimum of 30
minutes. In order to correctly evacuate the system, the vacuum gauge must be less than three
inches away from the system port. If the gauge is more than three inches away from the system
port, pull a vacuum and allow the system to equalize for ten minutes. This will ensure an accurate
gauge reading.

NOTICE

All refrigerant must be recovered before the evacuating procedure is


started. Never discharge the refrigerant through the vacuum pump.
Never discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere. Always use the
Refrigerant Identifier tool in order to ensure that contamination of the
system does not occur.

Note: The vented exhaust valve (8) must be closed until the vacuum pump has started.

8. Operate the vacuum pump until the low pressure gauge indicates a pressure that is between
95 kPa (28 in hg) and 98 kPa (29 in hg). After the vacuum in the system reaches a value that
is between 95 kPa (28 in hg) and 98 kPa (29 in hg), close the vented exhaust valve (8).
Operate the vacuum pump for a minimum of 90 minutes after the vented exhaust valve is
closed. Use a 113 L/min (4 cfm) pump. Make allowances for pumps that are smaller than
113 L/min (4 cfm) cfm.

Note: 95 kPa (28 in hg) to 98 kPa (29 in hg) is the required specification at sea level. For
every 305 m (1000 ft) above sea level, decrease the required specification by 3 kPa
(1 in hg). At high elevations, less vacuum is required.

9. If the specific vacuum cannot be reached, the system may have a leak. Refer to the Testing
and Adjusting, "Refrigerant Leakage - Test" section. Perform the procedures that are
indicated. Repair all leaks and repeat Step 1 of the evacuating procedure.

Note: The evacuating procedure removes air and moisture from the system. Do not use the
vacuum pump primarily to indicate a system leak.

10. After 95 kPa (28 in hg) to 98 kPa (29 in hg) vacuum has been reached and held for an
additional 90 minutes, close valve (1) and close valve (2) completely. Turn the power
switch on the vacuum pump to the OFF position. The maximum amount of vacuum loss in
five minutes must not be more than 7 kPa (2 in hg). Excessive vacuum loss is an indication
of a possible leak in the system. Refer to the Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant Leakage -
Test" section. Perform the procedures that are indicated. Repair all leaks and repeat Step 1
of the evacuating procedure.

11. If the vacuum loss does not exceed 7 kPa (2 in hg) in five minutes, the system is then ready
for a complete charge. Refer to the Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant System - Charge"
section. Perform the procedures that are indicated.

Refrigerant System - Charge


SMCS - 1809-045

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

Personal injury can result from hot coolant. Any contact with hot
coolant or with steam can cause severe burns. Allow cooling system
components to cool before the cooling system is drained.

Note: To avoid cross contamination of Polyalkylene Glycol (PAG) oil and Polyol Ester (POE)
electric drive compressor oil:

• Flush the service hoses (red, blue, and yellow) and R-134a Couplers (high and low side)
with an approved solvent for R-134a air conditioning systems before servicing the air
conditioning system

• Or use new service hoses and couplers on D7E machines. Reference service hose part
numbers 272-3091 red, 208-1335 blue, 208-1334 yellow hoses, and 208-1339 coupler (low
side), 208-1340 coupler (high side).

Relationship Between Temperature and Pressure (R-134a


Refrigerant)
Table 2 can be used in order to determine the pressure level and contamination level of a container
of refrigerant. Table 2 can also be used for an air conditioning system that is not operating. This
same system must be stabilized to the ambient temperature. In order to stabilize an air
conditioning system at the ambient temperature, the machine must not operate for 10 to 12 hours.
The machine must not be stored in direct sunlight.

If the measured pressure at any specific temperature does not match the pressure that is given in
the chart, the following problems may exist:

• Contaminants in the system

• Incorrect refrigerant

• Incorrect refrigerant charge

Charging the System


Pressure cannot accurately be used to charge the air conditioning system

An accurate refrigerant charge may only be determined by weight. Several variables affect
the pressure and the variables cause the system to be incorrectly charged.

Compressor Speed - :

• The rate of refrigerant that is pumped by the compressor will affect the pressure that is built
by the compressor.

Air Flow and Air Temperatures Through the Condenser and Evaporator - :

• The amount of air flow and the temperature of the air that is moving through the condenser
or evaporator will affect the pressures that are seen at the compressor. Blockages in the
stream of air flow will affect the amount of heat that is rejected from the refrigerant or
absorbed into the refrigerant. This process affects the working pressures.

Ambient Temperature - :

• Pressures are affected by ambient air temperature and solar load to the cab.

• Temperature that is around hoses and other components affect the ambient temperature. As
the engine heats up, some of the heat is absorbed into the refrigerant during the refrigerant
ride through the hoses and components. The pressure in the compressor can be greatly
affected by the heat that is absorbed in many locations.

• Ambient temperatures will change throughout the operation of the AC, resulting in constant
pressure fluctuations.

Internal Blockages - :

• Blockages that are at different locations in the refrigerant circuit will affect the pressures
and the blockages will cause various concerns with pressure and fluctuations.

Note: Do not add or remove part of the refrigerant.

Note: Never charge liquid or gas through the discharge side (high side) of the system when the
engine is in operation.

NOTICE

In an expansion valve system which uses poly alkaline glycol (PAG),


the sight glass is not a reliable way to determine the system charge.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 13 of 17

Note: For expansion valve systems that contain PAG oil, the sight glass cannot be used for
charging the system. In order to achieve a full charge for the system, the refrigerant must be
recovered from the system and the system must be evacuated. After the system has been recovered
and the system has been evacuated, charge the system with the correct amount of refrigerant. This
process is the only procedure that is recommended. Refer to the Specifications, "System
Capacities for Refrigerant" section for the proper capacity. Also, refer to the Systems Operation,
"Identifying the Air Conditioning System" section.

Note: Before you charge the system, these important items should be checked.

1. Condenser and evaporator

◦ Inspect the condenser and inspect the evaporator for foreign material such as dirt,
insects, plastic bags, and so on, that would inhibit air flow.

◦ With condensers that are mounted on the roof and with remote mounted condensers,
always check that both fan motors are running. Check for restrictions. A clean
condenser will lead to improved life for the compressor.

2. Check for a loose belt on the compressor.

3. Clean the fresh air filter and clean the recirculation filter.

4. Check the moisture indicator on either the receiver-dryer or the in-line dryer. If the moisture
indicator is pink or white, there is moisture in the system. Replace the receiver-dryer or the
in-line dryer. Refer to the Disassembly and Assembly, "Machine Preparation for
Disassembly and Assembly" section. If the moisture indicator is blue, the system is normal.

5. Check the condensate tube on the evaporator. Make sure that the tube is not plugged and
that the valve is properly in place.

Note: Before an accurate reading for moisture can be attained, a new receiver-dryer requires
2 to 3 hours of operation.

Note: The preferred method for charging the air conditioning system is listed below.

◦ Recover the refrigerant.

◦ Evacuate the system.

◦ Charge the system with the correct amount of refrigerant. Measure the refrigerant by
weight.

Note: After the system has been recovered and the system has been evacuated, charge the
system with the correct amount of refrigerant. Measure the refrigerant by weight. Refer to
the Specifications, "System Capacities for Refrigerant" section for the proper capacity.
Also, refer to the Systems Operation, "Identifying the Air Conditioning System" section.

1. Hand tighten charging hose (5) from the manifold gauge set directly to the valve (4) on
refrigerant tank (10) . Open the valve (4) on top side of refrigerant tank (10) .

2. Turn the tank over so that the tank is resting on handles of tank. This procedure allows the
flow of liquid refrigerant through the charging hose (5) to the manifold gauge set (3) .

Place the refrigerant tank (10) on the scale (11) so that the valve (4) is at the bottom. Check
and record the weight of the tank.

3. Loosen the hose (5) at the manifold gauge set (3) for 2 to 3 seconds. Then tighten the
connection. This procedure will purge the air from the line.

4. Open the high-pressure valve (2) on the manifold gauge set (3) . This action allows the
refrigerant liquid to charge the system through the high-pressure side of the compressor.

5. Check the weight of the refrigerant tank (10) often. The weight will decrease as the
refrigerant leaves the tank and the refrigerant enters the system. When the required amount
of refrigerant (system capacity) has entered the system, close the valve (4) on the tank and
close the high-pressure valve (2) . Closing the valves stops the flow of the refrigerant. For
example, 1.8 kg (4 lb) of refrigerant has entered a system with 1.8 kg (4 lb) capacity.

Note: Heater blanket (13) is required when you charge an air conditioning system.

6. Record the following information in the "SIMSi" ticket.

◦ Record the amount of refrigerant you recovered from the "HVAC" system.

◦ Record the amount of oil that you recovered from the "HVAC" system or removed
from the "HVAC" components.

◦ Record the amount of refrigerant you charged back into the system.

◦ Record the amount of oil you replenished into the system. Refer to Testing and
Adjusting, "Refrigerant Oil - Test" to determine the correct amount of oil to replace.

7. In order to ensure correct system operation, disconnect charging hose (5) and conduct a
performance check. Refer to the Testing and Adjusting, "Air Conditioning Performance -
Test" section.

Pressure Switches and Arc Suppressor


The air conditioning systems on Caterpillar machines use pressure switches in order to protect the
air conditioning system. Some air conditioning systems on Caterpillar machines use pressure
switches and the on delay timer assembly for the refrigerant compressor in order to protect the air
conditioning system. Arc suppressors protect other electrical components in the air conditioning
system. Arc suppressors are applied in order to discharge electrical inductance when the
compressor disengages. Failure of the arc suppressor can affect the reliability of the pressure
switch. Failure of the arc suppressor may cause failure of the pressure switch.

The following procedures are for the testing of the on delay timer assembly, pressure switches,
and components of the arc suppressor.

Table 1

On Delay Timer Assembly for the Refrigerant Compressor Tests

In order to diagnose a faulty on delay timer assembly for the refrigerant compressor, the engine
start switch must be in the ON position and the air conditioning switch activated.

Note: The on delay timer assembly will delay the power supply to the compressor clutch coil for
30 seconds after the air conditioning switch is activated.

(3) Compressor clutch

(4) Power supply

1. Separate the four pin connectors from the wiring harness.

2. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter to DC voltage. Connect the positive probe to pin (4) on
the wiring harness and connect the negative probe to a suitable ground. The multimeter
should read 12 V for a 12 V system or the multimeter should read 24 V for a 24 V system.

Note: If the voltage is below 9 V or the voltage is above 24 V for a 12 V system, the on
delay timer assembly will not supply power to the compressor.

Note: If the voltage is below 18 V or the voltage is above 32 V for a 24 V system, the on
delay timer assembly will not supply power to the compressor.

3. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter to OHMS. Connect the positive probe to pin location
(2) on the wiring harness and connect the negative probe to a suitable chassis ground. The
multimeter will display OL if the ground is not present.

4. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter OHMS. Connect the positive probe to pin location (1)
on the wiring harness and connect the negative probe to a suitable chassis ground. If the
multimeter displays OL, one of the three switches are open. Check each of the switches if an
open condition occurs.

Note: There must be refrigerant in the air conditioning system in order to close both of the
pressure switches.

5. In order to check that power is getting from the on delay timer assembly to the compressor
clutch coil, reconnect the on delay timer assembly to the wiring harness. Set the 146-4080

Digital Multimeter to DC voltage. Remove the 2-pin connector from the compressor clutch
coil. Connect the negative probe to a suitable chassis ground. Check each one of the two
pins on the wiring harness for voltage. One of the two pins should supply 12 V for a 12 V
system or 24 V for a 24 V system.

6. In order to check the ground path from the compressor clutch coil to the chassis, turn off the
air conditioning switch in the cab. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter OHMS. Remove the
2-pin connector from the compressor clutch coil. Connect the negative lead to a suitable
ground. Check each of the two pins on the two pin connectors for continuity. One of the two
pins should display OL.

7. If both the correct voltage and ground are present check the resistance of the compressor
clutch coil. Refer to the Specifications, "Refrigerant Compressor" section.

Pressure Switch Tests

Test Procedure for 114-5333 Pressure Switch and 114-5334 Pressure Switch (NORMALLY
OPEN)

Pressure switches are used in order to protect the a/c compressor. The two most commonly used
pressure switches are the 114-5333 Pressure Switch and the 114-5334 Pressure Switch . The only
difference between the two switches is the connector. Only one of these switches is used per
machine. The high pressure and low-pressure switches have three possible switch positions which
are given below:

OPEN - System pressure is low.

CLOSED - System pressure is correct.

OPEN - System pressure is high.

The two OPEN positions of the pressure switch protect the air conditioning system. The OPEN
position prevents the compressor from actuating when potentially harmful pressures exist in the
system. The CLOSED position is the normal operating switch position. The following table
contains the logic for the pressure switches:

Use the following procedures in order to test the pressure switch:

1. Disconnect the pressure switch from the machine harness.

2. Connect the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter to the two connector pins. Set the multimeter to
the OHMS test mode.

3. Measure the resistance of the pressure switch.

4. If the system pressure is between 275 kPa (40 psi) and 1750 kPa (254 psi), the multimeter
will display a value that is less than 1 ohm.

5. If the resistance that is displayed is a value of OL (high resistance), and the system pressure
is within acceptable limits, replace the pressure switch.

6. When the pressure switch fails, test the arc suppressor for proper operation.

7. If the pressure switch is removed, make sure that the wires on the new pressure switch are
tie-wrapped. Securing the pressure switch prevents damage that may be caused by vibration.

Correct Mounting of Arc Suppressors

Certain arc suppressors may experience failure of the wire leads due to vibration if the arc
suppressor is not properly supported.

Use a 2U-4497 Strap to tie-wrap the arc suppressor. The arc suppressor should be securely tie-
wrapped to a stationary support in order to prevent any motion of the body of the arc suppressor.
Additionally, the connectors on both ends of the arc suppressor should be secured.

A suitable bracket for supporting an arc suppressor is the 116-6100 Plate . The addition of a 9R-
2926 Plate should permit the mounting of the 116-6100 Plate around obstacles. Use the 9R-2926
Plate if the 116-6100 Plate cannot be installed directly in an existing application.

The Sure Seal connectors on the 3E-9169 Arc Suppressor and the 105-8827 Arc Suppressor
should be secured with two 9G-9150 Clips in order to prevent movement of the connectors
relative to the body of the arc suppressor. The DT connectors on the 130-0956 Arc Suppressor and
130-8134 Arc Suppressor should be secured with two 9U-2297 Clips . The clips should be bolted
through the slotted holes on the 116-6100 Plate .

The 106-8704 Arc Suppressor is an integral arc suppressor. The integral arc suppressor can be
found on the newer machines. The 106-8704 Arc Suppressor is lighter than the other arc
suppressors. The 106-8704 Arc Suppressor can be strapped directly to the wiring harnesses that
are connected to the arc suppressor.

Test Procedures for Transzorb:

Testing Procedure for 218-4935 Arc Suppressor

The transzorb voltage suppressors can be bi-directional and use a zener diode instead of a regular
diode to clamp the voltage transients.

The transient voltages measure at a compressor with a arc suppressor diode (such as 189-3158 Arc
Suppressor ) should not exceed -1.28 V. But the diode is not protected from over voltage being
applied.

Whereas, the transient voltages measured at a compressor with the transzorb ( 218-4935 Arc
Suppressor ) should not exceed ± 30 V.

To check transzorb, connect in series the power supply capable of at least 40 V, transzorb, and a 2
W 100 ohms resistor. The part would be defective, if the voltage measured across the transzorb is
greater than 32 V in both polarities.

Heater Performance - Test


SMCS - 7309-081

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

Personal injury can result from hot coolant. Any contact with hot
coolant or with steam can cause severe burns. Allow cooling system
components to cool before the cooling system is drained.

In order to conduct a performance of the heating system, perform the following procedure.

1. Run the engine at 1000 rpm (low idle speed) until the engine coolant temperature is in the
normal operating range.

2. Adjust the temperature control knob to the hottest position.

3. Put the fan switch in the HIGH position on heat.

4. Check the system for normal operating conditions.

◦ The temperature of the air that is flowing from the louvers (air ducts) should be warm.

◦ The temperature of the air should be easily controllable by the control panel in the
dash.

◦ There should not be a smell of coolant that is present in the cab.

If any of the three items are not working properly, refer to Troubleshooting section of this manual.

EMS Display Area

(1) Alert Indicator

The output test verifies that the EMS action lamp, the action alarm, and the alert indicators are
operating properly. The EMS control performs this test each time the test switch is held in the
TEST or CHECK position. The operator must observe the outputs to determine whether the EMS
control is operating properly.

During the self-test:

• All alert indicators (1) flash (approximately nine times per second).

• The action lamp will flash (ON 1 second, OFF 2 seconds).

• The action alarm sounds (ON 1 second, OFF 2 seconds).

Note: The action alarm sounds only if the engine is running (connector contact 13 not grounded).

When the test switch is released, the EMS control resumes normal operation.

If the EMS control operates as described, the control is probably operating properly.

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

Personal injury can result from hot coolant. Any contact with hot
coolant or with steam can cause severe burns. Allow cooling system
components to cool before the cooling system is drained.

NOTICE

Never weld or solder any charged components.

Before any problem solving procedures are performed, read the manual for the heating and air
conditioning system. Make a visual inspection of the complete air conditioning and heating
system.

During any service of the Air conditioning System, all open connections are required to be capped
or plugged with clean plastic part. Failure to cap open connections or failure to plug open
connections will allow moisture into the system and lead to further damage.

When one is preparing to work on the air conditioning system, it is important to properly prepare
the machine by performing a lockout/tagout procedure on the machine and on the air conditioning
system. All charging and leak testing must be done in a well ventilated area.

General Troubleshooting Information


SMCS - 7320-035

The diagnostics for the electronic control module (ECM) can be accessed through one of the
following tools:

• Cat® Electronic Technician (Cat® ET) service tool

• The operator monitor

When the troubleshooting procedure says “REPAIR THE HARNESS OR REPLACE THE
HARNESS”, use the machine Electrical Schematic to trace the circuit. Perform continuity checks
at the harness connectors to locate harness failures. At the connectors of the components, always
check the ground circuit. Less than 5 ohms of resistance is required between the ground contacts
of the connector and the frame ground. The power circuits of the ECM should have less than 2
ohms of resistance between the contacts of the ground connector and the frame ground. Less than
5 ohms of resistance is required for signal circuits for normal operation. Ground resistance greater
than 5 ohms can cause incorrect diagnosing of problems.

Inspect all connections before any component is replaced. Connections that are not clean and tight
can result in permanent or intermittent electrical problems can result. Check that the wires are
pushed into the connectors completely. Make sure that the connections are tight before other tests
are made.

Failure of an electrical component can cause the failure of other components. Failure of an
electrical component can be caused by the failure of other components. Always attempt to correct
the cause of an electrical failure before replacing a component.

Air Conditioning System Troubleshooting


SMCS - 7320-035-YC

Note: Before you conduct a performance check, refer to the Service Manual, SENR5664, "Visual
Inspection" section.

Note: Refer to the Service Manual, SENR5664, "Machine Preparation for Troubleshooting"
section before service work is performed on the air conditioning system.

Problem Solving
The following problem solving section is provided for identifying and correcting problems that
may occur in the air conditioning system. Several problems can have the same system condition or
similar system conditions. Before you start the procedure in order to correct the problems, it is
necessary to be complete in the diagnosis of the problems.

The problem solving procedures are based on the system condition during the problem. In order to
indicate the system pressures, the manifold gauge set must be installed. The manifold gauge set is
used only in order to diagnose problems. The refrigerant lines can give an indication of system
operation that is abnormal. Temperature differences between the high-pressure side and the low-
pressure side can be an indication of abnormal operation in a line. This can also be found by cold
spots (frost) on the line. In R134a air conditioning systems, the lines can have spots of frost and
the system can be operating normally. Frost will most often form after the orifice and on the lower
portion of the accumulator. The temperature of the air flow from the evaporator will also indicate
a problem with the system. Knowing the complete system condition is an important step in
making a correct diagnosis.

Note: R134a air conditioning system problem diagnosis requires a combination of symptoms or
indicators in order to correctly identify problems and solve problems.

Problem Solving Procedure

1. Install the manifold gauge set. Refer to the Service Manual, SENR5664, "Manifold Gauge
Set (Refrigerant) - Install" section in Testing and Adjusting.

2. Run the engine at 1000 rpm. Put the air conditioner temperature control knob in the
Maximum COOL position. Put the fan switch in the HIGH position on the AIR

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022

CONDITIONING side. In order to stabilize the system, operate the engine for a minimum
of 10 minutes.

3. Adjust the engine speed to approximately 1300 to 1400 rpm. Record the readings on the low
-pressure gauges and the high-pressure gauges. The gauge readings will be a partial
indication of the system condition.

4. Compare the discharge and suction pressures on the manifold gauge set to the Pressure
Ranges that are in Table 1 in order to determine if the system is functioning correctly for the
current ambient temperature. Use the table to determine if the system is operating normally.
If the pressures according to the chart are high or the pressures according to the chart are
low, refer to the system conditions that are listed in "Refrigerant Circuit Problems".

During normal operation of the air conditioning system in 21 °C (70 °F) weather, the
discharge pressure will be 820 kPa (120 psi) to 1300 kPa (190 psi).

The pressure on the suction side will be 70 kPa (10 psi) to 130 kPa (20 psi).

The outside temperature and humidity will have an effect on the pressures. If the outside
temperature is high, the discharge pressure will be high. In very hot weather, the suction and
the discharge pressures will be high. In cooler weather, the suction and the discharge
pressure will be normal or the pressure can be lower.

Note: All pressures are given as a guide only. Weight is the only absolute means of
determining proper refrigerant charge. Improper refrigerant charge will cause
premature failure of the compressor .

False Seizure of the Compressor


Table 3
Required Tools
Part Number Part Description
1U-8590 Spanner Wrench

On the initial start-up of the air conditioner system, slipping drive belts and broken drive belts
may be experienced if the air conditioner system has not been used for an extended period. Also,
scored clutch surfaces may be experienced. This would indicate a seized compressor. However,
replacement of the compressor may not be necessary.

Changes in temperature can cause expansion of the refrigerant in the compressor during extended
periods of nonuse. Also, changes in temperature can cause contraction of the refrigerant in the
compressor during extended periods of nonuse. During this movement, lubricating oil that is
carried by the refrigerant migrates. The lubricating oil moves away from highly polished surfaces
in the compressor. Without lubricating oil at the polished surfaces, the polished surfaces rub
together. This can appear as a seized compressor.

The compressor should be checked for seizure before the compressor is replaced. Use the
procedures that follow in order to check the compressor for seizure.

1. With a spanner wrench on the clutch drive plate, rock the shaft in the opposite direction of
normal rotation.

2. After the clutch drive plate is movable, rotate the clutch drive plate at least three complete
revolutions in the counterclockwise direction.

3. Start the engine. Operate the compressor for a minimum of one minute.

This procedure will not correct a seized compressor. However, this procedure should be
attempted before you replace a compressor that has been idle for a month or longer.

Heating System Troubleshooting


SMCS - 7304-035; 7309-035-YC

The following problem solving section is provided for identifying and correcting problems that may occur
in the heating system. Several problems can have the same system condition (symptom) or similar system
conditions. Before you start the procedure in order to correct the problems, evaluate the performance using
the Testing and Adjusting, SENR 5664, "Heater Performance –Test". It is necessary to be complete in the
diagnosis of the problem. Repair the components or replace any damaged component if the components are
faulty during the inspection.

Symptom: There is little or no warm air that is flowing to the cab


when the heater control knob is set to the position of maximum
heat.
Possible Cause 1

The blower motor is not working.

1. Inspect the circuit breaker or the fuse panel in order to ensure that there is no open circuit.

2. Visually inspect the wire harnesses in order to check for any broken wires or missing connectors.
Use the electrical schematic for the respective machine to ensure proper connections.

3. Check the fan blade in order to make sure that the fan blade is not blocked or seized.

4. Check for the proper function of the fan switch at each setting. The blower motor should engage at
all settings and temperatures.

Possible Cause 2

There is a leak that is present in the system.

1. Check the hose clamps in order to make sure that the hose clamps are present and that the hose
clamps are also tightened to the correct torque value that is shown on the drawing.

2. Check the heater coil for any visible cracks or signs of a leak.

3. Check the water valve in order to make sure that the water valve is properly installed and
operational.

Possible Cause 3

Troubleshooting Heating and Air Conditioning Control


System
SMCS - 7309-035-YC

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

Personal injury can result from hot coolant. Any contact with hot
coolant or with steam can cause severe burns. Allow cooling system
components to cool before the cooling system is drained.

Heating System
In order to conduct a performance check of the heating system, perform the following procedure.

1. Run the engine at 1000 rpm.

2. Adjust the temperature control knob to the setting for maximum heating.

3. Put the fan switch in the HIGH position on heat.

4. When the engine coolant temperature is in the normal operating range, the temperature of
the air that is flowing from the louvers (air ducts) should be warm.

If the temperature of the air that is flowing is not warm within 10 minutes of operation, refer
to "Problem 2" section.

Problem 1

There is little warm air flow or no warm air flow when the heater control knob is set for
maximum heating.

1. Perform the following procedure:

a. Check the engine coolant temperature. The temperature of the coolant must be at
normal operating range.

b. The heater control valve must be functioning properly. Check for the correct linkage
adjustment from the temperature control lever to the heater control valve. The heater
control valve must open completely when the temperature control knob is set for
maximum heating.

c. Check for blockage and check for bends in the heater hoses. Blockages and bends in
the heater hoses would stop the flow of coolant through the system.

d. Inspect the petcocks that connect the heater hoses to the engine block. Make sure that
the petcocks are adjusted so that the petcocks are fully open.

2. Make repairs to the components or replace any damaged component.

The air conditioning systems on Caterpillar machines use pressure switches in order to protect the
air conditioning system. Some air conditioning systems on Caterpillar machines use pressure
switches and on delay timer assembly for the refrigerant compressor in order to protect the air
conditioning system. Arc suppressors protect other electrical components in the air conditioning
system. Arc suppressors are applied in order to discharge electrical inductance when the
compressor disengages. Failure of the arc suppressor can affect the reliability of the pressure
switch. Failure of the arc suppressor may cause failure of the pressure switch.

The following procedures are for the testing of the on delay timer assembly, pressure switches,
and components of the arc suppressor.

On Delay Timer Assembly for the Refrigerant Compressor Tests

In order to diagnose a faulty on delay timer assembly for the refrigerant compressor, the engine
start switch must be in the ON position and the air conditioning switch activated.

Note: The on delay timer assembly will delay the power supply to the compressor clutch coil for
30 seconds after the air conditioning switch is activated.

(4) Power supply

1. Separate the four pin connectors from the wiring harness.

2. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter to DC voltage. Connect the positive probe to pin (4) on
the wiring harness and connect the negative probe to a suitable ground. The multimeter
should read 12 V for a 12volt system or the multimeter should read 24 V for a 24 V system.

Note: If the voltage is below 9 V or the voltage is above 24 V for a 12 V system, the on
delay timer assembly will not supply power to the compressor.

Note: If the voltage is below 18 V or the voltage is above 32 V for a 24 V system, the on
delay timer assembly will not supply power to the compressor.

3. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter to OHMS. Connect the positive probe to pin location
(2) on the wiring harness and connect the negative probe to a suitable chassis ground. The
multimeter will display OL if the ground is not present.

4. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter OHMS. Connect the positive probe to pin location (1)
on the wiring harness and connect the negative probe to a suitable chassis ground. If the
multimeter displays OL, one of the three switches are open. Check each of the switches if an
open condition occurs.

Note: There must be refrigerant in the air conditioning system in order to close both of the
pressure switches.

5. In order to check that the power is getting from the on delay timer assembly to the
compressor clutch coil, reconnect the on delay timer assembly to the wiring harness. Set the
146-4080 Digital Multimeter to DC voltage. Remove the 2-pin connector from the
compressor clutch coil. Connect the negative probe to a suitable chassis ground. Check each
one of the two pins on the wiring harness for voltage. One of the two pins should supply 12
V for a 12 V system or 24 V for a 24 V system.

6. In order to check the ground path from the compressor clutch coil to the chassis, turn off the
air conditioning switch in the cab. Set the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter OHMS. Remove the
2-pin connector from the compressor clutch coil. Connect the negative lead to a suitable
ground. Check each of the two pins on the two pin connectors for continuity. One of the two
pins should display OL.

7. If both the correct voltage and ground are present check the resistance of the compressor
clutch coil. Refer to the Service Manual, SENR 5664, "Refrigerant Compressor" section in
Specifications.

Pressure Switch Tests

Test Procedure for 114-5333 Pressure Switch / 355-3148 Pressure Switch and 114-5334
Pressure Switch (NORMALLY OPEN)

Pressure switches are used in order to protect the a/c compressor. The two most commonly used
pressure switches are the 114-5333 Pressure Switch / 355-3148 Pressure Switch and the 114-5334
Pressure Switch . The only difference between the two switches is the connector. Only one of
these switches is used per machine. The high pressure and low-pressure switches have three
possible switch positions which are given below:

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 8 of 19

OPEN - System pressure is low.

CLOSED - System pressure is correct.

OPEN - System pressure is high.

The two OPEN positions of the pressure switch protect the air conditioning system. The OPEN
position prevents the compressor from actuating when potentially harmful pressures exist in the
system. The CLOSED position is the normal operating switch position. The following table
contains the logic for the pressure switches:

Use the following procedures in order to test the pressure switch:

1. Disconnect the pressure switch from the machine harness.

2. Connect the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter to the two connector pins. Set the multimeter to
the OHMS test mode.

3. Measure the resistance of the pressure switch.

4. If the system pressure is between 275 kPa (40 psi) and 1750 kPa (254 psi), the multimeter
will display a value that is less than 1 ohm.

5. If the resistance that is displayed is a value of OL (high resistance), and the system pressure
is within acceptable limits, replace the pressure switch.

6. When the pressure switch fails, test the arc suppressor for proper operation.

7. If the pressure switch is removed, make sure that the wires on the new pressure switch are
tie-wrapped. Securing the pressure switch prevents damage that may be caused by vibration.

Note: The multimeter may display OL if the contacts on the pressure switch are dirty. The
contacts on the pressure switch can become dirty if the arc suppressor is no longer functioning.

Note: The multimeter will display OL if the pressure switch is not threaded into the air
conditioning system.

Correct Mounting of Arc Suppressors

Certain arc suppressors may experience failure of the wire leads due to vibration if the arc
suppressor is not properly supported.

Use a 2U-4497 Strap to tie-wrap the arc suppressor. Securely tie-wrap the arc suppressor to a
stationary support in order to prevent any motion of the body of the arc suppressor. Additionally,
the connectors on both ends of the arc suppressor should be secured.

A suitable bracket for supporting an arc suppressor is the 116-6100 Plate . The addition of a 9R-
2926 Plate should permit the mounting of the 116-6100 Plate around obstacles. Use the 9R-2926
Plate if the 116-6100 Plate cannot be installed directly in an existing application.

The Sure Seal connectors on the 3E-9169 Arc Suppressor and the 105-8827 Arc Suppressor
should be secured with two 9G-9150 Clips in order to prevent movement of the connectors
relative to the body of the arc suppressor. The DT connectors on the 130-0956 Arc Suppressor and
130-8134 Arc Suppressor should be secured with two 9U-2297 Clips . The clips should be bolted
through the slotted holes on the 116-6100 Plate .

The 106-8704 Arc Suppressor is an integral arc suppressor. The integral arc suppressor can be
found on the newer machines. The 106-8704 Arc Suppressor is lighter than the other arc
suppressors. The 106-8704 Arc Suppressor can be strapped directly to the wiring harnesses that
are connected to the arc suppressor.

Troubleshooting Condensate Drainage System


SMCS - 7320-035

Regular inspection is needed in order to ensure that the holes for the condensate drainage are not
plugged with debris. Regular inspection is also needed in order to ensure that adequate flow is
seen from the case. When the air conditioning system is in operation, there should be evidence of
condensate that is exiting the machine from the drain lines.

• Check the drain lines in order to ensure that the drain lines are not pinched.

• Inspect the drain valves in order to ensure that the drain valves are present and installed
correctly. The valve should be located between 0.0 mm (0.0 inch) and 76 mm (3 inch) from
the end of the drain line.

• If the lines are plugged with dirt and debris, flush the lines with water and relocate the
valve.

In order to make sure that the drainage system is working, open the HVAC case and inspect the
interior sloped floor or the drain pan.

• Ensure that no large debris is clogging the drain valves from the case.

• If any large debris is observed, the HVAC case should be cleaned in order to prevent any
future buildup from clogging the path of drainage.

• Once the area for drainage has been cleaned, reassemble the HVAC case in order to make
sure that the system works. Run the system and check the drain lines for condensate flow.

General Information
SMCS - 7490

Troubleshooting the Electronic Monitoring System (EMS) requires additional information from
the machine Service Manual. The Electrical System Schematic and the Operation and
Maintenance Manual are required support material.

As a guide, a Typical EMS Schematic is at the end of this manual. For an accurate representation
of the machine being diagnosed, see the Electrical System Schematic in the machine Service
Manual.

When the troubleshooting procedure instructs you to REPAIR THE HARNESS, use the Electrical
System Schematic in the machine Service Manual to trace the circuit. Perform continuity checks
at connectors to locate harness failures. At component connectors, always check the ground
circuit. Less than approximately 5 ohms of resistance is required between the connector ground
contacts and frame ground. Excessive ground resistance, greater than approximately 5 ohms, can
cause incorrect diagnosing of problems.

During troubleshooting, inspect all component and harness connections before any component is
replaced. If these connections are not clean and tight, electrical problems can occur, either
permanent or intermittent. Make sure that the connections are tight before other tests are made.

Failure of an electrical component can cause (or be caused) by the failure of one or more other
components. Always attempt to find and correct the CAUSE of an electrical system failure before
replacing of a component.

Display for the EMS

(1) Alert Indicators

Alert indicators show the status of switch inputs. The switch inputs can be open or grounded. If an
alert indicator is off, then the corresponding switch input is grounded. If an alert indicator is
flashing, the corresponding switch input is open. A fault occurs when the operation of an indicator
does not correspond to a known machine condition.

Before troubleshooting, ensure that a fault exists. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual
for a description of abnormal machine conditions that cause the alert indicators to flash. Perform
the following procedures only if a fault is suspected.

Note: Alert indicator "8" is often used to indicate an electrical system problem. The alert indicator
for the electrical system gets information from a sensor input or the alternator "R" terminal. The
alert indicator does not get information from a switch input.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 5

The operator or the service person discovers a fault in an indicator when the operation of an
indicator does not correspond to a known machine condition. The following scenario is an
example: The alert indicator for brake oil temperature flashes continuously. The indicator flashes
after extended periods of shutdown. The possible fault conditions for the indicators are shown
below:

• The alert indicator is always flashing: Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Alert
Indicator is Always Flashing".

• Alert indicator never flashes: Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Alert Indicator
Never Flashes".

The indicators reflect the open or grounded condition of the uncommitted switch inputs. When a
switch input is open, the corresponding alert indicator flashes. When a switch input is grounded,
the corresponding alert indicator is OFF. Open and ground the corresponding switch wire to check
a circuit. Watch for the correct result on the alert indicators.

Other fault conditions in EMS are also possible. These faults are the following:

• The action alarm sounds while the engine is off. Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures,
"Action Alarm Sounds with Engine Off".

• The action alarm sounds continuously. Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Action
Alarm On Continuously".

• The action alarm does not sound. Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Action Alarm
Does Not Sound".

• The action lamp is on continuously: Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Action Lamp
On Continuously".

• Action lamp does not light: Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Action Lamp Does
Not Flash".

• All the alert indicators and the action lamps are flashing. Refer to Diagnostic System
Procedures, "All Alert Indicators and Action Lamp Are Always Flashing".

• The test switch does not operate properly. Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Test
Switch".

• Engine oil pressure indicator flashes when engine speed exceeds 1200 rpm to 1500 rpm:
Refer to Diagnostic System Procedures, "Alert Indicator For Engine Oil Pressure".

Electronic Monitoring System Troubleshooting


Begin your troubleshooting by gathering reliable information. Perform these four tests and write
down your results. Compare the results of each of the steps with the expected results. If the actual
results differ from the expected results, proceed to the probable cause to begin the diagnostic
procedure.

The EMS can be checked for correct operation with four basic test procedures. The test procedures
must be followed in order. Start with Test 1. The results from Test 2 depend on the results from
Test 1, etc.

There are many types of starting systems in the different vehicles with EMS. In the tests that
follow, you will be instructed to place the key start switch in the ON position. Vehicles with the
key type start switch have an OFF, ON, and START position. There are many vehicles with EMS
that have a start switch with an OFF, HEAT, and START position. This second type of start
switch will not have an ON position. The disconnect switch and the key start switch have the same
ON position. The disconnect switch and the key start switch have the same OFF position for the
second type of starting system.

The disconnect switch and the parking brake must be in the ON position during all these tests.

Test 1

• Key Start Switch ON

• Test Switch ON

• Engine OFF

Expected Results

1. All indicators flash.

2. The action lamp flashes.

3. The action alarm must be OFF.

If the results do not match the expected results, refer to Diagnostic System Procedures. Find the
procedure for correcting the unexpected result.

Test 2

• Key Start Switch ON

• Test Switch OFF

• Engine OFF

Expected Results

System Capacities for Refrigerant


SMCS - 1809

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

Note: The information in the table should be used for reference. Use the sight glass that is located
on the receiver-dryer. When the refrigerant is clear, the system is fully charged. If the refrigerant
contains bubbles, the system is undercharged.

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

When the service work is done on the air conditioning system, it is important to keep the system
clean and free from contamination. Plugs and caps must be used in order to close the components
and hoses when the components and hoses are open. The plugs and caps protect the system from
dirt and air (moisture). Only new refrigerant oil of the correct viscosity and new refrigerant can be
added to the system. Refer to the Service Manual, SENR3334, "Refrigerant Compressor" section
in this manual for the correct oil. Any other material or any other substance is considered non-
condensable and the material will contaminate the system. Keep the work area clean.

• Dust caps on the refrigerant compressor block fitting are the primary seal on the air
conditioning system.

• All machines should have an identification tag in the cab that specifies the proper refrigerant
charge for the machine.

When replacement or repair of components and hoses are required, perform the following
procedure:

1. Remove the refrigerant charge. Refer to the Service Manual, SENR3334, "Refrigerant
Recovery" section in Testing and Adjusting.

2. Remove the component or remove the hose that is being repaired or replaced. Install
protective plugs on components or hoses that are left exposed to the air.

3. Replace any damaged component or hose.

4. Use the following table in order to determine the amount of oil that is lost during individual
replacements of components. Add the correct amount of oil to the compressor before the
system is evacuated. No additional oil should be added to the system if the compressor is
replaced at the same time as other components in the system.

• All refrigerant lines that are metal or flexible hose must be free of sharp bends. Also, do not
use a refrigerant line that is kinked. Sharp bends will cause a restriction in the refrigerant
flow. Restrictions in the refrigerant lines are identified by cold spots or frost on the line at
the location of the restriction. Restrictions in the lines reduce the performance and the
efficiency of the system.

• The radius of bends in the flexible hose must never be less than 10 times the outside
diameter of the hose.

• Do not allow the flexible hoses to come within 63.5 mm (2.50 inch) of the exhaust
manifold.

• The hoses need to be inspected yearly for leaks and for hardness. Conduct a leak test on all
the hoses and the lines. Refer to the Service Manual, SENR3334, "Refrigerant Leakage -
Test" section in testing and adjusting. Replace hoses if leaks or hardness are in the hoses.
Replace hoses with new hose that is sealed and free of contaminants.

• The correct use of wrenches is very important when connections are made. The type of
wrench that is used is also important. Only use wrenches that are made for use with tube
type fittings. When a hose is connected or disconnected from the system, use a wrench on
the fitting and use a wrench on the nut. When a metal line is connected or disconnected
from the system, use a wrench on the fitting and use a wrench on the nut.

• Install protective plugs or protective caps on all components and hoses that are disconnected
or removed.

• O-ring seals and O-ring seats must be in good condition. Small cuts, scratches, or particles
of dirt will cause a leak in the system. Put new refrigerant oil on all new O-ring seals at the
time of installation. Do not use any kind of sealant on connections.

• Dust caps on the compressor block fittings are the primary seals on the air conditioning
system.

• All machines should have an identification tag that specifies the refrigerant charge for the
machine. The tag should be located in the operator compartment.

• If water is in the vents check the nonreturn valve. If water leaks from the air conditioning
system, check the nonreturn valve. The nonreturn valve should have the proper position and
the proper direction.

• If engine coolant is leaking into the operator compartment, check for loose clamps on the
heater hoses.

Refrigeration System

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022

the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

Personal injury can result from hot coolant. Any contact with hot
coolant or with steam can cause severe burns. Allow cooling system
components to cool before the cooling system is drained.

• All refrigerant lines that are metal or flexible hose must be free of sharp bends. Also, do not
use a refrigerant line that is kinked. Sharp bends will cause a restriction in the refrigerant
flow. Restrictions in the refrigerant lines are identified by cold spots or frost on the line at
the location of the restriction. Restrictions in the lines reduce the performance and the
efficiency of the system.

• The radius of bends in the flexible hose must never be less than ten times the outside
diameter of the hose.

• Do not allow the flexible hoses to come within 63.5 mm (2.50 inch) of the exhaust
manifold.

• The hoses need to be inspected yearly for leaks and for hardness. Conduct a leak test on all
the hoses and the lines. Refer to the Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant Leakage - Test"
section. Replace hoses if leaks or hardness are in the hoses. Replace hoses with new hose
that is sealed and free of contaminants.

• The correct use of wrenches is important when connections are made. The type of wrench
that is used is also important. Only use wrenches that are made for use with tube-type
fittings. When a hose is connected or disconnected from the system, use a wrench on the
fitting and use a wrench on the nut. When a metal line is connected or disconnected from
the system, use a wrench on the fitting and use a wrench on the nut.

• Install protective plugs or protective caps on all components and hoses that are disconnected
or removed.

• O-ring seals and O-ring seats must be in good condition. Small cuts, scratches, or particles
of dirt will cause a leak in the system. Put new mineral oil (397-7507) on all new O-ring
seals at the time of installation. Do not use any sealant on connections.

• Dust caps on the compressor block fittings are the primary seals on the air conditioning
system.

• All machines should have an identification tag that specifies the refrigerant charge for the
machine. The tag should be located in the operator compartment.

• If water is in the vents, check the non-return valve. If water leaks from the air conditioning
system, check the non-return valve. The non-return valve should have the proper position
and the proper direction.

kPa (2 to 3 psi) higher.

6. Check for frost at the dryer outlet.

Note: Moisture on the drier outlet tube after the orifice is normal and this moisture does not
indicate a failure with the dryer. Frost on the drier outlet tube after the orifice is an indicator
of a low refrigerant charge.

7. If frost is indicated at the dryer outlet or if pressures are low, proceed to Step 8. Otherwise,
proceed to Step 15.

8. Recover the refrigerant charge from the machine. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly,
"Refrigerant System Recovery".

9. Record the amount of refrigerant and oil that is recovered from the Air Conditioner system.

Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant Compressor Oil - Test" Section.

10. If the charge was low, check the system for leaks.

a. Use an Ultraviolet light and use an electronic leak detector. Ensure that the following
items are checked:

◾ Quick disconnects which are on the dryer

◾ Check the drier swivel nut and tighten the nut to 27 ± 4 N·m (20 ± 3 lb ft).

◾ All the connections in the circuit that are O-ring

◾ Hoses for rubbing, bulging, and wet spots (oil leaks)

Note: In order to help reveal leaks, simulate the vibrations which are made by the
machine by moving the connections.

11. Recharge the refrigerant. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Refrigerant System - Charge"
Section.

12. Retest the system with the engine at 1400 rpm and check for frost at the dryer outlet.

13. Ensure that the pressures are normal for the current ambient temperature.

14. Refer to Table 1 for the pressures which are normal for the current ambient air temperature.

15. If a component is leaking, bill the claim against the leaking component and provide details
in the description.

Power Flow

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 26

Power Flow
(1) Upper section of the transmission. (2) Engine. (3) Lower section of the transmission. (4) Differential or bevel gear
carrier. (5) Case for the bevel gear. (6) Final drive.

The basic components of the power train are: the engine, transfer gears, power shift transmission,
bevel gear and pinion, final drives and axles and the tandems and wheels. There is no flywheel
clutch or torque converter used in this machine.

Power from the engine goes directly to the upper section of the power shift transmission which has
the forward and reverse direction clutches. The lower section has the speed clutches. Four of the five
speed clutches are stationary, while one clutch is a turning clutch. Three clutches must be engaged at
the same time to have power flow through the transmission.

Power goes from the output flange of the transmission planetary to the pinion gear of the differential
or bevel gear. The differential or bevel gear turns the axles that turn planetary gears of the final
drive.

The sprockets of the final drive are connected to the wheel spindles with chain.

Transfer Gears And Transmission

Transfer Gears
(1) Input gear. (2) FORWARD input gear. (3) REVERSE input gear. (4) Output gear. (5) Output gear. (6) Idler gear. (7)
Planetary input gear.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 26

The planetary transmission has six forward and six reverse speeds. The selection of speed and
direction is done manually. Control of the transmission is done hydraulically. The transmission is
driven by transfer gears which are turned directly by an adapter on the engine flywheel. The transfer
gears have two turning clutches; a forward clutch and a reverse clutch.

The adapter on the engine flywheel turns input gear (1). Input gear (1) turns against FORWARD
input gear (2) which turns REVERSE input gear (3). There is no flow of power when the direction
clutches, in front of input gear (2) and input gear (3), are not engaged. When the FORWARD clutch
(No. 1 clutch) is engaged, output gear (4) turns against idler gear (6) which turns planetary input
gear (7). Since the REVERSE clutch is not engaged, output gear (5) is free to turn with idler gear
(6). When the REVERSE clutch (No. 2 clutch) is engaged, the FORWARD clutch is not engaged,
and output gear (5) turns idler gear (6) which drives planetary input gear (7) in the opposite
direction.

The planetary transmission has four stationary clutches: No. 3, No. 4, No. 5, and No. 6, one turning
clutch: No. 7, and a stationary clutch for the parking brake. Two of the five planetary clutches and
one direction clutch (No. 1 or No. 2 clutch) must be engaged for each speed.

Most all the components inside the planetary transmission turn when the controls are in each
FORWARD or REVERSE speed. The illustrations that follow show the flow of power through the
transmission in different speeds.

First Speed

Power Flow In First Speed; No. 5 And No. 6 Clutches Engaged


(1) No. 3 and No. 4 carrier. (4) Planetary gear. (5) No. 4 clutch. (6) Ring gear for the No. 4 clutch. (7) No. 5 carrier. (8)

Planetary gear. (27) Planetary gear.

Power goes through the No. 1 clutch (FORWARD) or the No. 2 clutch (REVERSE) to the No. 3 and
No. 4 carrier (1). The planetary gears (4) are turned by the No. 3 and No. 4 carrier (1). The planetary
gears (4) are engaged with the ring gear (6) for the No. 4 clutch and make it turn. The No. 4 clutch
(5) is not engaged but the ring gear (6) for the No. 4 clutch is connected to the No. 5 carrier (7) with
a spline. Because the No. 5 clutch (9) is engaged and holding the ring gear (8) for the No. 5 clutch,
the planetary gears (25) (turned by the No. 5 carrier) make the sun gear (24) turn shaft (20).

As the sun gear (24) turns shaft (20), it gives resistance to the planetary gears (25) and to the No. 5
carrier (7). The ring gear (6) for the No. 4 clutch is connected to and has resistance to turning by the

No. 5 carrier (7). Because the ring gear (6) for the No. 4 clutch has a resistance to turning, the
planetary gears (4) (turned by the No. 3 and No. 4 carrier) make the sun gear (23) turn the shaft (20).
Power is divided between the sun gear (23) and the ring gear (6) for the No. 4 clutch.

Sun gear (12) turns with shaft (20) and makes planetary gears (27) turn. Because the No. 6 clutch
(11) is engaged and holding the ring gear (10) for the No. 6 clutch, the planetary gears (27) (turned
by the shaft and the sun gear) make the No. 6 carrier (13) turn. The No. 6 carrier is connected to the
ring gear (15) for the parking brake which is connected to the output flange (17) and power is sent to
the differential or bevel gear.

gears (4) are engaged with the ring gear (6) for the No. 4 clutch and make it turn. The No. 4 clutch
(5) is not engaged but the ring gear (6) for the No. 4 clutch is connected to the No. 5 carrier (7) with
a spline. Because the No. 5 clutch (9) is engaged and holding the ring gear (8) for the No. 5 clutch,
the planetary gears (25) (turned by the No. 5 carrier) make the sun gear (24) turn shaft (20).

As the sun gear (24) turns shaft (20), it gives resistance to the planetary gears (25) and to the No. 5
carrier (7). The ring gear (6) for the No. 4 clutch is connected to and has resistance to turning by the
No. 5 carrier (7). Because the ring gear (6) for the No. 4 clutch has a resistance to turning, the

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 8 of 26

Transmission Lubrication (Typical Illustration)


(1) Oil filter. (2) Main relief valve. (3) Oil cooler. (4) Transfer gear housing. (5) Direction clutches. (6) Two section
pump. (7) Planetary transmission. (8) Selector valve group. (9) Transmission reservoir. (10) Main reservoir in
intermediate housing. (11) Bevel gear reservoir. (12) Magnetic screen filter. (13) Magnetic screen filter.

The oil that is necessary for the operation and lubrication of the transmission is made available by a
gear type pump that has two sections. The shaft that turns the input gear for the transfer gears also
turns the shaft for the pump. The pump turns at engine speed.

There are three oil reservoirs for the transmission; transmission reservoir (9), main reservoir (10),
and bevel gear reservoir (11). (The 120G has only two reservoirs; the transmission reservoir and the
bevel gear reservoir. The main reservoir is the bevel gear reservoir.) The oil is pulled from the main
reservoir (10) by the small section of the pump (6). The flow of oil from the small section of the
pump goes through filter (1) to main relief valve (2). The flow of oil then goes to the selector valve
(8), oil cooler (3) and to the clutches and gears for lubrication.

The large section of the pump pulls oil from transmission reservoir (9) and bevel gear reservoir (11)
through the magnetic screen filters (12) and (13). (On the 120G, oil is pulled from the transmission
reservoir only.) The flow of oil from the large section of the pump goes to main reservoir (10). An
opening in the wall between main reservoir (10) and bevel gear reservoir (11) lets extra oil go from
main reservoir (10) to bevel gear reservoir (11). (On the 120G, the main reservoir is the bevel gear
reservoir.)

Direction Clutch Lubrication

The direction clutches get lubrication oil from the main relief valve. The flow of oil goes through the
center of the forward and reverse clutch shafts. The lubrication of both clutches is the same. For the
purpose of illustration, the lubrication for the FORWARD clutch is shown.

Forward Clutch Lubrication (Clutch not engaged)


(1) Hole. (2) Passage. (3) Passage. (4) Passage.

There are three passages connected to the center passage of the direction clutch shaft. Passage (4) is
used to send oil to the clutch plates for cooling and lubrication. Passage (3) is used for lubrication of
the taper bearings of the output gear. Passage (2) is used only when the direction clutch is engaged.
When the FORWARD direction clutch is engaged, the flow of oil through passages (2) and (4) gives
extra lubrication to the direction clutch. When the direction clutch is not engaged, passage (2) is not
in alignment with hole (1) in the piston and passage (4) is the only passage that gives lubrication to
the direction clutch.

Lubrication For Transfer Gears


The splines on the input shaft and the flywheel adapter get lubrication from a passage in the center
of the pump drive shaft. The passage in the drive shaft is connected to an opening in the large
section of the pump.

Lubrication For Transfer Gears


(1) Hole. (2) Passage. (3) Passage. (4) Passage. (5) Hole. (6) Passage. (7) Passage. (8) Drilled holes.

The taper bearings on the input shaft get lubrication from oil that is thrown by the direction clutches.

The taper bearings on the shaft for the idler gear get lubrication through passage (6). Some of the oil
from the direction clutches goes into hole (5) and through passage (6) to the taper bearings.

The lubrication oil to the planetary transmission goes through passage (7) to the outside of the main
transmission shaft and through four drilled holes (8) to a small passage around the center passage in
the main shaft.

Planetary Lubrication
The main shaft has a tube installed inside it to make a center passage. This center passage lets P1
pressure oil go to the No. 7 clutch.

The lubrication oil flows through a small passage around the center passage in the main shaft.
Drilled holes in the main shaft let lubrication oil (from the small passage around the center passage)
go to the bearings of the planetary gears.

All other gears and clutches get lubrication from oil thrown by the turning components or from
leakage from the shafts with pressure oil. The leakage then goes to the transmission reservoir.

The basic components of the transmission oil system are oil reservoirs (11), (12), and (13), oil pump
(7), oil filter (1), main relief valve (4), selector valve group (10) and differential lock valve [on
machines with a differential (9)].

The hydraulic controls are: Main relief valve (4), selector valve group (10) and differential lock
valve (9). The location of the selector valve group is inside the transmission housing. Selector valve
group (10) sends pressure oil to the proper clutches for the selection of a speed (six forward and six
reverse). The location of main relief valve (4) and differential lock valve (9) is on the outside of the
transmission housing. Main relief valve (4) controls the pressure in the hydraulic system.
Differential lock valve (9) controls the lock-up clutch in the differential (on machines with a
differential).

Transmission Valves
The chart gives a description of the function of the valves of the transmission controls:

Passage to No. 3 clutch. (A) Passage for signal pressure. (B) Passage for signal pressure. (E) Passage for signal pressure.
(F) Passage for signal pressure. (G) Passage for signal pressure.

With the engine off, the pump is not being turned and there is no pressure oil in the system. With no
pressure oil, the two position selector spools (17), (18), and (36) and the load piston (32) are held by
spring force against their respective stops. The three position selector spool (35) is held in its center
position by spring force.

The selector valve group has three manually operated spools: pilot selector spool (16), direction
selector spool (28), and manual modulation spool (14). All of the other spools are operated by pilot
pressure. The pilot selector spool (16) sends pilot pressure oil to the speed selector spools which in
turn send pressure oil to the speed clutches. The direction selector spool (28) sends oil to the
direction clutches. The manual modulation spool (14) gives a control for the P2 pressure to the
direction clutches. Make reference to Manual Modulation Valve.

The main relief valve (4) has a relief valve (20) for maximum system pressure, an oil cooler bypass
valve (24) for the oil cooler, and a lubrication relief valve (25) for maximum pressure of the clutch
and planetary lubrication oil. Relief valve (20) keeps the system pressure from getting too high.
Bypass valve (24) prevents the pressure in the oil cooler from getting too high. Relief valve (25)
keeps the lubrication oil for the speed clutches and the planetary gears from getting too high.

When the engine is started and the selector valve is in NEUTRAL, oil from the pump goes to main
relief valve (4), around relief valve (20), to the selector valve group. Relief valve (20) lets some oil
go to cooler (5). Oil from the cooler goes behind cooler bypass valve (24) and into a cavity for
clutch and planetary gear lubrication.

At the selector valve group, the flow of oil divides into two separate circuits: signal pressure circuit
and system pressure circuit.

Signal Pressure Circuit

As the engine is started, spring force holds priority reducing valve (29) so the signal pressure
passage to pilot selector valve (16) is the first circuit to get pressure. As the pressure becomes higher
than the spring force, the valve moves to the right and opens the system pressure passage, when the
signal pressure becomes 660 ± 69 kPa (96 ± 10 psi). The valve has moved to the right far enough to
not let any more pressure into the signal pressure passage to the pilot selector valve.

Pilot selector valve (16) has seven positions. When the control lever is in the NEUTRAL position,
the valve sends signal pressure to passages (A) and (F).

The function of the signal pressure circuit is to control the movement of the speed selector spools.
The signal pressure in passages (A) and (F) moves speed selector spool (35) to the left and speed
selector spool (36) to the right.

System Pressure Circuit

After the pressure becomes 660 ± 69 kPa (96 ± 10 psi) in the signal pressure circuit, priority
reducing valve (29) opens the passage to modulating reducing valve (31). The system pressure
moves modulating reducing valve (31) to the left until speed clutch pressure (P1) 660 ± 69 kPa (96 ±
10 psi). Since pilot pressure is holding spool (35) and (36) in the positions shown, system pressure
goes to the passage for No. 7 clutch (37) and to the passage for No. 3 clutch (38).

With speed selector spool (35) held in the position shown by the signal pressure in passage (A), a
passage (27) is opened by speed selector spool (35). This open passage lets pressure oil on the left
end of differential, check, and relief spool (15) go to the reservoir and prevents spool (15) from
moving to the right. Because the differential, check, and relief spool (15) can not move to the right,
the direction clutches have no pressure oil and will not engage.

If the engine is started in any speed except NEUTRAL, system pressure is sent from speed selector
valve (35) through the orifices in the differential, check, and relief valve (15) to the spring side of
valve (15) holding the valve against its stop. In this position, the direction clutches can not get
pressure oil. When the selector lever is moved to the NEUTRAL position, the oil in the spring side
of the valve is free to go to the transmission reservoir. The oil pressure on the left side of the valve
then works against the spring force and differential, check, and relief valve (15) moves to the
NEUTRAL position. In this position, the direction clutches have no pressure and will not engage.

pressure. (F) Passage for signal pressure. (G) Passage for signal pressure.

When the selector lever is moved from NEUTRAL to FIRST FORWARD, the pilot selector valve
(16) lets the signal pressure in passages (A) and (F) go to the reservoir and sends signal pressure to
passages (B) and (G).

When the signal pressure in passage (F) goes to the reservoir, the spring force on the speed selector
spool (36) moves the spool to the left and lets the pressure oil in the passage for the No. 3 clutch
(38) go to the reservoir. The signal pressure in passage (B) moves the speed selector spool (35) to
the right and lets the pressure oil in the passage for the No. 7 clutch (37) go to the reservoir. The No.
3 and No. 7 clutches are now not engaged.

When the speed selector spools (18) and (35) are moved to the positions shown by the signal
pressure in passages (G) and (B), the passages to clutch No. 5 (23) and No. 6 (30) are open to
system pressure.

With the speed selector spool (35) in the position shown, the passage (27) from the left end of the
differential, check, and relief spool (15) (open to the reservoir in NEUTRAL) has pressure oil. This
pressure oil moves the differential, check, and relief valve (15) to the right and lets pressure oil go to

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 17 of 26

the direction clutches. Since the direction selector valve (28) is in the position shown, pressure oil
will go to the passage (33) for the No. 1 clutch.

When the shift is made from NEUTRAL to FIRST FORWARD and the No. 5 and No. 6 clutches are
being filled, the spring pressure moves the modulating reducing valve (31) to the right. As the
clutches fill, the system pressure has an increase. The increase in pressure works against the slug in
the modulating reducing valve (31) and the valve moves to the left to stop the increase in pressure.
With this higher pressure, the load piston (32) moves to the right and the spring force between the
modulating reducing valve and the load piston has an increase. The increase in spring force moves
the modulating reducing valve (31) to the right and this lets the system pressure have an increase.
This cycle takes place again and again until the system pressure is at a maximum. This gradual
increase in pressure is modulation. The modulating reducing valve (31) gives modulation for all the
clutches (speed and direction).

The differential, check and relief valve (15) causes a pressure difference of 415 kPa (60 psi)
between the P1 pressure and the P2 pressure. The P2 pressure to the direction clutches is always 415
kPa (60 psi) less than the P1 pressure to the speed clutches. This pressure difference lets the speed
clutches engage first. The direction clutches engage last and take the load. When P1 pressure is at a
maximum of approximately 2350 kPa (340 psi) (controlled by the main relief valve), the P2 pressure
is at approximately 1950 kPa (280 psi) with the engine at HIGH IDLE. When the engine is at LOW
IDLE, P1 pressure is approximately 2120 kPa (310 psi) and P2 pressure is approximately 1720 kPa
(250 psi). The shift is now complete.

Passage to No. 3 clutch. (A) Passage for signal pressure. (B) Passage for signal pressure. (E) Passage for signal pressure.
(F) Passage for signal pressure. (G) Passage for signal pressure.

When the selector lever is moved from FOURTH REVERSE to FIFTH REVERSE, pilot selector
valve (16) lets the signal pressure in passage (G) go to the reservoir and sends signal pressure to
passage (E).

When the signal pressure in passage (G) goes to the reservoir, the spring force on speed selector
spool (18) moves the spool to the left and lets the pressure oil in the passage for No. 5 clutch (23) go
to the reservoir. The signal pressure in passage (E) moves speed selector spool (17) to the left and
opens the passage to No. 4 clutch (22) to system pressure.

When the passage to No. 4 clutch (22) is opened, system pressure has a decrease as the pressure oils
fills the passage for No. 4 clutch (22). As the No. 4 clutch fills, a decrease in pressure in passage
(21) causes a decrease in pressure on the left end of differential, check, and relief valve (15) and lets
the valve move to the left.

When differential, check, and relief valve (15) moves to the left, pressure oil in the No. 2 direction
clutch goes to the reservoir. The pressure oil in passage (19) also goes to the reservoir through
differential, check, and relief valve (15). A decrease in pressure in line (19) causes load piston (32)
to move to the left and modulating reducing valve (31) to move to the right. Also, a decrease in
pressure in passage (19) causes a decrease in pressure in the passage for No. 7 clutch (37) and the
clutch is now not engaged.

As the passage to No. 4 clutch (22) is filled, an increase in pressure to passage (21) moves
differential, check, and relief valve (15) to the right and closes the passage from passage (19) to the
reservoir. Now the system pressure has an increase.

Modulating reducing valve (31) gives the modulation to the pressure oil until the P1 pressure in the
No. 4 and No. 7 clutches is at approximately 2350 kPa (340 psi) and the P2 pressure in the No. 2
clutch is at approximately 1930 kPa (280 psi) with the engine at HIGH IDLE. When the engine is at
LOW IDLE, P1 pressure is approximately 2120 kPa (310 psi) and P2 pressure is approximately
1720 kPa (250 psi). The shift is now complete.

Pilot Selector Valve


The function of the pilot selector valve is to control the movement of the speed selector spools. This
control is done either by sending signal pressure to the speed selector spool or by letting the signal
pressure in the speed selector spool go to the reservoir.

(1) Chamber connected to transmission reservoir. (2) Chamber connected to signal pressure from the priority reducing
valve. (A, B, E, F and G) Signal pressure passages to the speed selector spools.

The pilot selector valve has two chambers in its center. Chamber (1) is connected to a passage that
goes to the transmission reservoir. Chamber (2) is connected to a passage from the priority reducing
valve for signal pressure.

Five more passages connect the speed selector spools to one of the two chambers in the pilot
selector spool. When the selector spool is in NEUTRAL, FIRST, SECOND, or THIRD, two of the
passages have signal pressure because they connect to chamber (2) in these positions. The other
three passages are connected to the transmission reservoir through chamber (1). When the selector
spool is in FOURTH, FIFTH, or SIXTH, only one of the passages is connected to chamber (2) while
the other four are connected to chamber (1).

Manual Modulation Valve


The manual modulation valve lets the operator control the P2 pressure to the directional clutches and
move the machine a little distance at a time. The left foot pedal in the operator's compartment is
connected to the manual modulation valve with a cable.

When the left foot pedal is up and the manual modulation valve is not being used, spool (6) is in the
position shown. P1 pressure from the load piston (8) goes through passage (7) and is stopped by the
spool (6). P2 pressure goes around piston (4) and to the direction clutches. P2 pressure also goes
through orifice (3) and into chamber (2) where the pressure is stopped. P1 and P2 are at their
maximum pressures.

When the left foot pedal is pushed down, spool (6) is moved out as shown. Passage (7) from the load
piston is connected to passage (1) which lets P1 pressure oil from the load piston (8) go to the
reservoir. The location of the orifice for passage (7) at the load piston (8) prevents P1 pressure from
going lower than 620 kPa (90 psi). The clutches are now operating at a lower pressure.

At the same time that passage (7) is connected to passage (1), chamber (2) is also connected to
passage (1) which lets P2 pressure oil in the chamber go to the reservoir. P2 pressure on the slug (5)
moves the piston (4) to the left and causes a restriction to the P2 oil flow around the piston (4). This
restriction causes a decrease in pressure of the P2 oil to the direction clutches.

P2 pressure can be controlled from approximately 69 to 1000 kPa (10 to 145 psi) by the manual
modulation valve. Because the direction clutches are not fully engaged, the operator can slip the
clutch (make the discs slide in relation to the plates) and move the machine a little distance at a time.

When the operator lets the pedal come back up, spool (6) moves back in and the P1 and P2 pressures
increase to their maximum pressures. The modulating reducing valve (9) gives modulation to the
pressure oil and lets the clutches engage smoothly.

Differential And Bevel Gear


Differential (On Machines With a Differential)
The differential is used to send power from the transmission, through the final drives, to the wheels.
When the rear wheels on one side are turning slower than the rear wheels on the other side (as in a
turn) the differential lets the inside wheels stop or turn slower in relation to the outside wheels.

The output flange of the transmission turns the shaft for bevel gear pinion (6). Bevel pinion (6) turns
bevel gear (4) which is fastened to the differential housing. The differential has four pinions (7), a

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SE... Page 21 of 26

spider (5) for the pinions, and two side gears (8) and (9). The connection between four pinions (7)
and the two side gears is at right angles through a gear mesh. Splines make the connection between
the side gears and the shafts to the final drives.

Differential (Typical Illustration)


(1) Piston. (2) Cavity. (3) Clutch plates. (4) Bevel gear. (5) Spider shaft for pinions. (6) Bevel pinion. (7) Pinions (four).
(8) Side gear. (9) Side gear.

When the machine is moving straight in a forward direction and the differential is in the UNLOCK
position, the same amount of traction is under the wheels on each side. The same amount of torque
that is sent to each shaft for the final drive stops pinions (7) so they can not turn on spider (5). This
gives the same effect as if both tandem drives were driven by the same shaft.

When the force that is sent to the shaft is not the same (as in a turn) forces that are not the same are
put on opposite sides of the differential. This action makes pinions (7) turn. The rotation of pinions
(7) lets the inside two wheels go slower or stop in relation to the two outside wheels. This moves the
machine through the turn under full power.

The housing for the differential runs on tapered roller bearings. Pinions (7) turn on hardened steel
bearings. Pinions (7) and side gears (8) and (9) turn against thrust washers which take the end thrust
against the differential housing.

The differential gets lubrication from oil thrown about inside the bevel gear housing. A flat surface
on each shaft of spider (5) lets lubrication go to pinions (7) and to the thrust washers.

Differential Lock Valve (On Machines With a Differential)

Electric differential control switch (18) controls a solenoid activated hydraulic valve located on the
differential carrier. When switch (18) is in the off (LOCK) position, indicator light (17) is off. No
current flows to solenoid coil connector (16) and the valve is held open by spring force. P1 pressure
oil from the transmission relief valve group flows through a hose to inlet opening (15). The internal
passages of the solenoid valve act as an orifice.

Electric Solenoid Valve


(11) Opening to reservoir. (12) Opening to clutch. (14) Pressure check test port. (15) Inlet opening. (16) Solenoid coil n
connector.

P1 oil goes into inlet opening (15) and out opening (12) to the differential lock clutch. The oil goes
into the differential through the differential cage assembly to cavity (2) in the differential housing.
The P1 oil pushes piston (1) against clutch plates (3) which cause side gear (9) to turn with bevel
gear (4). Pinions (7) do not turn on spider (5) but turn with side gears (8) and (9).

The speed of the wheels will be equal, even if the traction under each tandem becomes different.

When the differential control switch (18) is in the on (UNLOCKED) position, the indicator light
(17) is on and current flows to the solenoid coil connector (16). The solenoid force then moves the
valve spool against its spring force. The pressure oil in cavity (2) goes through opening (11) to the
reservoir. Pinions (7) and side gears (8) and (9) are now free to turn when traction under each
tandem is different.

The differential with the electric control can be locked in any speed since the P1 pressure source is
taken direct from the transmission relief valve.

On some machines with the electric control, an adapter plate is used between the solenoid valve and
the differential carrier. This plate blocks the flow of oil from the No. 6 transmission clutch on
machines that used the air control. On other machines with electric control, the plate is not used and
the hole to the No. 6 clutch is tapped and blocked with a plug.

Bevel Gear Group (On Machines Not Equipped With a


Differential)
The bevel gear group is used to send power from the transmission to the final drives. The output
flange of the transmission turns the shaft for the bevel gear pinion (1). The bevel pinion (1) turns the
bevel gear (3) which is fastened to hubs (2) and (4). The hubs are connected to the final drives with
shafts. These shafts have splines at both ends.

The bevel gear (3) is connected directly (through the hubs and shafts) to the final drives. The same
amount of torque is always sent to each tandem. This makes both tandems always run at the same
speed.

The bevel gear group gets lubrication from oil thrown about inside the bevel gear housing.

The final drive is a planetary gear system. Shaft (1) is connected to the differential or bevel gear at
one end and to the sun gear (2) at the other end with splines. The ring gear (10) of the planetary
system is connected to the housing (11). As shaft (1) is turned by the differential or bevel gear, sun
gear (2) turns planetary gears (9). Because the ring gear (10) is held by the housing, the planetary
gears (9) (turned by the sun gear) make the carrier (3) turn at a slower speed than the sun gear (2).

The carrier (3) is connected to the outer shaft (4) and the flow of power goes from the carrier (3),
through the outer shaft (4), and to the drive sprockets (5). Power from the drive sprockets (5) goes
through drive chains (6) and (7) to the driven sprockets (8). The driven sprockets (8) are connected
to the wheel spindles (15) with splines. All gears, bearings, and chains get lubrication from oil
thrown about the housing.

The tandem housing is connected to housing (13) with bolts. This lets the wheels move the ends of
the tandem housing up and down in relation to housing (11). Two rings (12), thrust washers (14) and
two seals are between housing (11) and housing (13).

checking is necessary, use the 7S8875 or 8M2736 Hydraulic Test Box. Locations of the pressure
taps, and procedures for testing and adjusting are given in the 12G, 120G, 130G and 140G
POWER SHIFT TRANSMISSION TESTING AND ADJUSTING, Form No. SENR3557.

Always make visual checks first. Then check the operation of the machine and go on to check
with the instruments.

Visual Checks
1. Check the oil level in the transmission.

2. Check all oil lines, hoses and connections for leaks and damage. Look for oil on the ground
under the machine.

3. Move the control lever to all REVERSE and all FORWARD positions. The detents must be felt
in all positions.

4. Let the oil out of both screen housings. Remove and check the screens for loose particles.

a. Paper particles give the indication of a direction clutch failure.


b. Bronze particles give the indication of a speed clutch failure.
c. Shiny steel particles give the indication of a pump failure.
d. Rubber particles give the indication of a rubber seal or hose failure.

If you find paper, bronze, rubber, or steel particles, all components of the hydraulic systems must
be washed clean. Do not use parts with damage. Use new parts.

Introduction
SMCS - 7000-035

When the words "use again" are in the description, the specification given can be used to
determine if a part can be used again. If the part is equal to or within the specification given, use
the part again.

When the word "permissible" is in the description, the specification given is the "maximum or
minimum" tolerance permitted before adjustment, repair and/or new parts are needed.

A comparison can be made between the measurements of a worn part and the specifications of a
new part to find the amount of wear. A part that is worn can be safe to use if an estimate of the
remainder of its service life is good. If a short service life is expected, replace the part.

Reference: For Systems Operation and Testing and Adjusting make reference to 12G, 120G,
130G and 140G Power Train, Form No. SENR3556. For Power Shift Transmission Testing And
Adjusting make reference to Form No. SENR3557.

Adjustment Procedure For Backlash Of Ring Gear And


Preload Of Differential Support Bearings Through The Side
Bores In The Differential Case

1. Disconnect the parking brake actuator by releasing it with air pressure and removing the cotter
pin and pin or use air to keep the brake disengaged while adjustments are being made.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 4

2. Remove locks (1) and (2) on bearing nuts (4) and (6). These nuts are used to adjust the
differential side bearing preloads.

3. Insert a drive axle shaft through both side gears of the differential from the ring gear side (on
nondifferentials, insertion in one spline is enough). Turn the shaft with a pipe wrench to rotate the
differential as the bearings are being adjusted.

4. Tighten nut (6) (on the side opposite the ring gear) as tight as possible by hand while rotating
the ring gear with the axle shaft. The ring gear must be rotated for the bearings to seat properly.
While tightening nut (6) and rotating the ring gear periodically, rock the ring gear against the
bevel gear so the backlash can be felt. An approximate backlash of 0.25 mm (.010 in.) should be
established by loosening or tightening nut (4) (ring gear side) while nut (6) is being tightened.

5. When the approximate backlash of 0.25 mm (.010 in.) has been established, rotate the ring gear
and tighten nut (4) as tight as can be done with hands. Mark the position of nuts (4) and (6) with a
marking pen or something similar.

6. Tighten nut (4) an additional three notches.

7. An accurate backlash setting must now be made. Refer to the Specifications section of the
model being adjusted.

8. To measure the pinion to ring gear backlash, mount a 8S2328 Dial Indicator with a magnetic
base (5) to the end of the differential housing assembly.

9. Fasten a 7D2844 Block or similar to one of the final drive mounting studs on the main frame.
Assemble dial indicator (5) so the indicator plunger is against this block at a radius equal to the
ring gear diameter and will indicate the rotational movement of the ring gear when it is rocked
through its backlash with the pinion gear.

10. Adjust nuts (4) and (6) equally to obtain the specified backlash. Check the marks made in Step
5 to assure a total preload of three notches from hand tight to the final locking position has been
maintained.

Example: If nut (4) has to be loosened two notches, then nut (6) should have been tightened two
notches.

11. Install locks (1) and (2) that hold nuts (4) and (6) in position. If the locks do not perfectly align
in the notches, do not advance the nuts more than a total of one half notch to align the two locks.

Cab Air Filters


SMCS - 7342

The cab air filters are designed to provide clean air to the air conditioning and the heating coils.
The cab air filters are designed to pressurize the cab. If the filters are not properly maintained, the
coils will be coated with dirt. Dirty coils will result in loss of heating. Dirty coils will result in loss
of cooling. Dirty coils could also result in failure of the compressor.

Cab air filters should be inspected weekly. Inspect the filter for holes. Look through the filter
toward a bright light. Check for damaged gaskets or dented metal parts. Do not use a damaged
filter. A damaged filter will allow dust into the cab. A damaged filter will allow dust onto the
cooling and heating coils.

Illustration 2 g00884577

In moderate dust conditions, the cab air filters should be cleaned weekly. In extreme dust
conditions, the filters should be inspected daily. In extreme dust conditions, clean the filters
whenever it is necessary.

Remove loose dirt with compressed air. Do not exceed 690 kPa (100 psi) from an air nozzle that is
an eighth inch in diameter. Keep the air nozzle at least 50.8 mm (2 inch) inches away from the
filter.

The filters that are made of foam can be blown out with low pressure air. The filters can be gently
washed with a mild detergent. After washing the filters, dry the filters with low pressure air.

Carbon impregnated filters may be blown out with low pressure air. Do not wash the carbon
impregnated filters.

Standard filters or high efficiency filters may be blown out with low pressure air. Do not wash the
standard filters. Do not wash the high efficiency filters.

Cab Pressurization and Filtration System


SMCS - 7320; 7342

Caterpillar machines with an enclosed cab area need to provide adequate air flow to the operator
inside the cab area so that a standard air pressure is met. Maintaining a proper air pressure level is
accomplished by ensuring that the appropriate seals are used. When the appropriate seals are
correctly installed, the cab will be pressurized by the ventilation system.

Maintaining the proper pressurization level in the cab area is important to the health of the
operator because changes to the air pressure may lead to problems with breathing. Low pressure
can cause dust to enter the cab and the Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning (HVAC) system,
which can lead to premature system deterioration. Low pressure is often caused by improper
sealing of the cab. Poor sealing of the cab requires an increase in the fresh air flow to maintain
pressurization. The increase in fresh air flow will lead to a lower air conditioning and heater
performance. The increase in fresh air flow will also lead to increased intervals in filter service.
Additional noise that is entering the cab can also result from poor sealing of the cab.

Cab sealing objectives for the operator cab environment are for the cab to pressurize to a
minimum of 50 Pa (0.2 inch of H2O) with no more than 76 m3/hr (45 cfm) of fresh air flow. The
minimum cab fresh air flow while the ventilation system is operating on any fan speed is 43 m3/hr
(25 cfm). This objective satisfies the requirements for fresh air flow from SAE J1503 and ISO
10263-4. In HVAC systems with a mode door that controls the balance of fresh air and
recirculation air, the control shall be set to minimum fresh air flow while measuring cab pressure.

The air flow of a HVAC system is used to pressurize a cab as the air flow passes through different
components. First, outside air is drawn into the HVAC compartment after being filtered for dust
particles. Air is drawn in with the help of a blower fan. The blower fan pulls air or pushes air
across the heater and/or the evaporator coil. The air flow is then directed into the ventilation ducts
of the system. The air flow travels into the environment of the cab through the directional louvers.
Finally, the air inside the cab area returns to the HVAC system through the recirculation filter.

Some ventilation systems can be enhanced by using different options. One option that is available
for a wide variety of Caterpillar machines is the inclusion of a powered precleaner unit. As part of
the pressurized system of the cab, a precleaner removes additional dirt/dust from the fresh air flow
that is entering the cab. This provides extended life for the filter to the fresh air filter. These
precleaners are coupled with higher efficiency fresh air filters in order to prevent finer particles of
dirt from entering the cab area. In addition to the precleaner, some newer systems may include

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 2

filters that are low restriction. A media filter that is low restriction can filter dust effectively, and
offer more air flow through the HVAC system.

Cab Air Filters


Most Caterpillar machines with the R134a system have two cab air filters. One type of air filter is
the fresh air filter and the other type of filter is a recirculation filter inside the cab. Some of the
machines have a third air filter that is made of foam. The third filter is designed to remove large
debris before the air reaches the fresh air filter.

Some Caterpillar machines are equipped with a precleaner for the cab. The system is designed to
remove excessive dust and dirt from the air that is entering the cab. The precleaner is part of the
pressurized cab.

There are optional replacement filters that are available for use in the field with certain machine
applications. Carbon impregnated filters are used for improved odor reduction in place of the fresh
air filter. High efficiency filters are also used as a replacement for the fresh air filter in
environments with high concentrations of dust. High efficiency filters also provide better filtering
efficiencies in order to reduce the intake of dust into the cab. Filters that are low restriction are
also available for certain applications as a way to reduce the system restriction through the filter.
Filters that are low restriction reduce the restriction that is in the system, and the filters continue to
maintain efficiencies in filtering dust.

ReferenceFor optional replacement of filters, see Datasheet, PEHJ0092, "Cat Cabin Air Filters
Datasheet".

Air filters for Caterpillar cabs are not intended for filtering out hazardous materials. When you are
working in an environment with potentially hazardous materials, all of the safety precautions for
working with that material should be followed. As the requirements are defined by the local
agencies, additional personal protection equipment may be required for the operator.

Manifold Gauge Set (Refrigerant) - Install


SMCS - 7465-012

Personal injury can result from contact with refrigerant.

This system is under pressure at all times, even if the engine is not
running. Heat should never be applied to a charged system.

Contact with refrigerant can cause frost bite. Keep face and hands away
to help prevent injury.

Protective goggles must always be worn when refrigerant lines are


opened, even if the gauges indicate the system is empty of refrigerant.

Always use caution when a fitting is removed. Slowly loosen the fitting.
If the system is still under pressure, evacuate the system recovering the
refrigerant before removing the fitting.

Personal injury or death can result from inhaling refrigerant through a


lit cigarette.

Inhaling air conditioner refrigerant gas through a lit cigarette or other


smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a flame contacting air
conditioner refrigerant gas, can cause bodily harm or death.

Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners or wherever refrigerant


gas may be present.

Before any checks of the air conditioning and heating system are made,
move the machine to a smooth horizontal surface. Lower all implements
to the ground. Make sure the transmission is in neutral or park and that
the parking brake is engaged. Keep all other personnel away from the
machine or where they can be seen.

1. Use the 138-6629 Refrigerant Identifier in order to verify that the refrigerant that is in the
air conditioning system is R-12.

2. Connect the manifold gauge set to the service ports near the refrigerant compressor. The
service ports for charging are located on the refrigerant lines. Connect the low pressure hose
to the service port on the suction side of the compressor. Connect the high pressure hose to
the service port on the discharge side of the compressor. Make sure that the valved
couplings are turned counterclockwise for installation. Then, turn the valved couplings
clockwise in order to open the valves.

3. Turn the pressure valves clockwise and make sure that both pressure valves on the manifold
gauge set are closed.

4. Place a clean rag over the charging hose fitting that is loosened at the manifold gauge set.
This will prevent the spraying of compressor oil. Open the low pressure valve on the gauge
set about 1/2 turn. Keep the valve open for 2 to 3 seconds in order to flush air from the low
pressure hose. This will also flush air from the gauge set. Close the low pressure valve on
the gauge set. Repeat this process for the high pressure valve. Tighten the charging hose
fitting at the manifold gauge set.

Note: Use the refrigerant identifier. The refrigerant identifier will prevent refrigerants that are not
R-12 from contaminating the recovery and charging tools.

Remove charging hoses properly. A low system charge will result from charging hoses that are not
removed correctly. In order to ensure accuracy of the refrigerant charge, the refrigerant should be
removed from the charging hoses. Refer to the following steps in order to remove the refrigerant
from the charging hoses:

1. Allow the compressor to continue operating. Close the valve on the high pressure side. The
valve is located near the charging ports on the compressor. Disconnect the high pressure
hose from the air conditioning system.

2. Open the high pressure valve and open the low pressure valve at the gauge set. The
refrigerant that is in the hoses will be removed by the compressor through the low pressure
hose.

3. Close the valve on the low pressure side. This valve is located near the charging ports on the
compressor. Disconnect the low pressure hose from the air conditioning system. The system
is now charged.

Note: After the manifold gauge set is removed, it is necessary to cap the charging valves.

General Information
SMCS - 7553

Mismatched or incorrect fasteners can result in damage or malfunction,


or personal injury.

Take care to avoid mixing metric dimensioned fasteners and inch


dimensioned fasteners.

Introduction to Torque
"Torque" is measured in terms of force and distance. Force is the amount of pushing or pulling
applied at the end of the lever. Distance is the length of the lever that is being used. Torque values
are given in the following units: NEWTON meters (N·m), pound inches (lb in), and pound feet (lb
ft)

This manual is intended to provide the operator with a reference. This manual will provide the
standard torque settings for the following: bolts, nuts, plugs, fittings, and clamps.

Exceptions to these torques are given in the Service Manual, if necessary.

Be sure to use a torque wrench that has the proper range. Torque wrenches must be used properly
in order to ensure that the correct torque is applied. Always use a smooth pull for torque wrenches.
Do not jerk a torque wrench. Do not use adapters that change the length of the torque wrench. For
the correct use of your torque wrench, refer to the instructions that were packaged with your
torque wrench. For more information on the correct use of torque wrenches, refer to Special
Publication, SEBV0516, "An Introduction to Torque". This publication is available on the
Caterpillar Media Information Center (CMIC) and through the normal literature distribution
system at your local Cat ® dealer.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 2 of 6

Prior to installation of any hardware, ensure that components are in near new condition. Bolts and
threads must not be worn or damaged. Threads must not have burrs or nicks. Hardware must be
free of rust and corrosion. Clean reused fasteners with a noncorrosive cleaner. Lightly lubricate
the threads of reused fasteners. Lightly lubricate the mating surface of the head of reused
fasteners. Other applications for lubricating fasteners may also be specified in the Service Manual.
The Service Manual may also specify the use of sealants and compounds.

Note: Do not use sealants that are not specified in the Service Manual. Do not use
compounds that are not specified in the Service Manual. Clean old compound from the bolt
and from the hole before installation.

Torque-Turn
The torque-turn method is used when precise control over clamping force is required. There is an
initial torque and an additional turn. The initial torque is required to bring all parts of the joint into
contact. The additional turn provides the desired clamping force. Ensure that all fasteners have
been torqued before you perform the additional turns. Turn the fastener according to the specified
amount. The specified amount will normally be equal to or greater than 90°. The specified amount
will normally be in 30° increments. Turns of 120° or 180° are preferred. Turns of 120° or 180° are
easily measured by the points of the hex head of the fastener. Lubrication may be specified in
order to reduce the effort that is required for the final turn. The use of the torque-turn method will
allow the following:

• Increase the life of the fastener.

• Maximize the potential clamping force of a fastener.

Typical applications are the following:

• Track bolts

• Sprocket bolts

• Connecting rod bolts

• Engine Cylinder Heads

• Drive Shaft bolts

Note: Too much tension on the bolt will cause the bolt to be stretched beyond the point of yield.
The bolt will be permanently stretched. The bolt will loosen the grip on the parts that are being
fastened. If the bolt is tightened again, the bolt will break. Do not reuse bolts that have been
permanently stretched.

Torque Sequence
Unless the bolt tightening sequence is specified by the Service Manual, the fasteners should be
tightened in a cross pattern. Use Step 1 through Step 5 unless the tightening sequence is specified:

1. Hand tighten all fasteners. Larger fasteners may require the use of a small hand wrench.

2. Torque all fasteners to 40% of full torque.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 6

3. Torque all fasteners to 70% of full torque.

4. Torque all fasteners to full torque by using a cross pattern. Large flanges may require
additional passes.

5. Apply at least one final full torque to all fasteners in a clockwise direction until all torque is
uniform. Large flanges may require additional passes.

Note: Final torque may be a turn.

Torque Marking (Best Practices)


Basic Process

1. Torque all bolts in the joint to a low torque or a snug torque.

Illustration 1 g06223465

2. Mark bolt head corner to abutment.

3. Tighten bolt to specified torque.

4. Verify that the lines are broken.

Circular Process

1. Torque all bolts in the joint to a low torque or a snug torque.

Illustration 3 g06223470

2. Mark bolt heads in a circular pattern.

3. Tighten bolt to specified torque.

Illustration 4 g06223472

4. Verify that the lines are no longer in a circular pattern.

Torque-Turn

Torque-Turn applies to fasteners that need turned to a set angle after the initial torque is applied.

1. Torque the fastener to the initial torque.

Illustration 5 g06241021

Example of 120° torque angle

2. Mark a line on the fastener and on the abutment.

3. Mark another line in a different color at the required angle on the abutment.

4. Turn the fastener to the appropriate torque angle.

Note: Marking the socket and aligning the mark on the socket with the original starting
mark can aide in turning the fastener to the correct angle.

Illustration 6 g06241028

Example of 120° torque angle

5. Verify the mark on the fastener is in-line with the torque angle mark.

Installation of Fittings
SMCS - 7553

Note: The tightening sequence of the threaded adapters that attaches a tube assembly or hose
assembly to the machine is critical to the proper function of the machine. The sealing surfaces of
the tube assembly or hose assembly should be secured squarely. The sealing surfaces of the tube
assembly or hose assembly should be tightened to the serviced component (control valve,
cylinder, hydraulic motor, etc.). Perform this procedure prior to the final tightening of any clamps
or clips that are used in order to fasten the tube assembly or the hose assembly to the machine.

Fittings have different connections. Fittings may have two different ends. Be sure to use the
proper torque for the end of the fitting that is used. The following list contains some common
types of fittings.

Protective caps and plugs should not be removed until the connector is ready to be assembled. All
sealing surfaces should be free of contamination and damage. If a connector is damaged before or
after assembly, it should be replaced.

• Straight Thread O-Ring (STOR)

• O-Ring Face Seal (ORFS)

• Tapered Pipe Thread (NPT and NPTF)

• 37 Degree Flare Fitting

• 45 Degree Flare Fitting

• Inverted Flare Fitting

• Hydraulic Four Bolt Flange

1. Position the flanges parallel over the port.

2. Evenly install bolts hand-tight, keeping the gap between flanges at a minimum.

3. Put the hose in a position so that the hose does not contact the machine or with another
hose.

4. Tighten using one of the assembly torque values for bolts, used in Illustration 1 for proper
torque sequence of various flange fittings.

5. Start the engine.

6. Move the implement control levers to all of the positions.

7. Look at the hose during movement of the implement. Ensure that the hose is not in contact
with the machine or with other hoses.

Note: For hoses that cross an articulation hitch, check for contact during articulation. For
hoses that connect to the steering system, check for contact during steering.

8. Shut off the engine.

https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sis... 22/09/2022
120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 3 of 4

9. If the hose contacts other hoses or the machine during the test, loosen the bolts and
reposition the hose. Repeat steps 3 through 8 until there is no contact.

Installation of Adjustable STOR Fittings


This type of fitting is used in many applications. One end of the fitting will be an adjustable STOR
fitting. The other end will be different. Always use the same installation procedure for the STOR
end. Adjustable STOR fittings can be positioned before tightening.

Illustration 2 g01848653

Elbow body assembly

(1) End that connects to the tube or hose

(2) Fitting body

(3) Locknut

(4) Backup washer

(5) O-ring seal

(6) End that is assembled to the mating part

1. Put locknut (3), backup washer (4) and O-ring seal (5) as far away from the threads as
possible. Hold these components in this position. Turn the fitting into the mating part. Turn
the fitting until backup washer (4) contacts the surface of the mating part.

Note: Excessive use of the wrench will distort the washer. Distortion of the washer will
prevent proper sealing.

2. Put the fitting assembly in the correct position. loosen fitting (2) until the correct assembly
position is achieved. Do not loosen the fitting more than 360 degrees. Install the tube or
hose hand tight in order to verify the orientation of the fitting. Tighten the fitting (2) to the
torque that is shown in the correct chart for the fitting that is used. Tighten locknut (3) to the
torque that is shown in the correct chart for the fitting that is used. Use a backup wrench,
when the locknut is tightened.

Note: Torque the fitting prior to the locknut.

120G Motor Grader 4HD00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3304 Engine(SEBP... Page 4 of 4

Note: If the fitting is not adjustable, the hex on the body replaces the locknut. To install this type
of fitting, tighten the hex against the face of the mating part.

Excessive tightening of the connectors can cause failure. Connectors that are under tightened can
also cause failures. The following failures occur:

• Excessive tightening can expand a loose ferrule into the nut. This will cause the ferrule to
lock up in the nut and the nut will not function properly.

• Excessive tightening can split the nut on the end of the tube or can split the ferrule.

• Excessive tightening can gall or excessive tightening can strip the threads of the nut.

Note: If the above conditions occur due to excessive tightening, the damaged fluid connector must
be scrapped and the fluid connectors must be replaced.

Note: Torque values listed above are recommended when assembling a steel fitting to a steel port.
Other materials require additional validation.

1. Torque values for tapered external pipe threads (e.g., NPT, NPTF, BSPT) mated with NPSF
or BSPP straight internal pipe threads shall use 50% of the value and tolerance shown in
Table 1. Values for NPSM connections are shown in Table 1.

Note: “Turns After Hand Tight” method shall not be used for straight internal pipe threads.

2. Apply thread sealant to male tapered pipe threads, unless one of the following conditions
exists:

◦ Connector is a lubrication (grease) connector.

◦ Connector is used in non water-cooled exhaust-related engine parts.

◦ On pipe threads which have pre-applied sealants.

Connector is mated with an NPSM swivel nut.

3. Hand-tighten swivel nut/connector to connector/port.

4. Apply assembly torque by using the "Assembly Turns after Hand Tight" values or the
"Dynamic Assembly Torque" values from Table 1.

5. One clockwise rotation past the "Maximum Assembly Torque" is allowed for orientation.

Put nut (1) over the tube and push the tube into the counterbore of the fitting body as far as
possible. Turn the nut with a wrench until a small decrease in torque is felt. The small decrease in
torque indicates that the sleeve (1A) has been broken off the nut. Hold the tube in order to prevent
the tube from turning. Tighten the nut for an additional 1 1/2 turns.

Installing a New Flareless Fitting

Put nut (1) and sleeve (2) over the tube. The head end of the sleeve should be next to the nut. The
head end has a shoulder. The nut will be seated against this shoulder when the nut is tightened.
Push the tube into the counterbore of the fitting body as far as possible. Turn nut (1) clockwise
until the sleeve grips the tube. The sleeve must prevent all movement of the tube. Tighten the nut
for an additional 1 1/4 turns. The sleeve should be seated and the sleeve should give a locking
action.

Installing a Used Flareless Fitting

Less turns are required for a used fitting. Put nut (1) and sleeve (2) over the tube. The head of the
sleeve should be next to the nut. Push the tube into the counterbore of the fitting body as far as
possible. Tighten the nut until a sudden increase in torque is felt. Next, tighten the fitting for an
additional 1/6 to 1/3 turn in order to seat the sleeve.

Use this value when the hose is reused. The clamp may be new or reused.

Constant Torque Hose Clamps


Use a constant torque hose clamp in place of any worm drive band type clamp. Ensure that the
constant torque hose clamp is the same size as the worm drive band type clamp. Due to extreme
temperature changes, the hose will heat set. Heat setting can cause worm drive band type clamps
to loosen. Loose hose clamps can result in leaks. There have been reports of component failures
that have been caused by worm drive band type clamps that have loosened. The constant torque
hose clamp will help prevent these failures.

(1) Constant Torque Hose Clamp (Belleville Washer)

(2) Constant Torque Hose Clamp (Tee bolt and Spring)

Use a torque wrench for proper installation of all constant torque hose clamps. There are two types
of constant torque hose clamps: Belleville washer (1) and Tee bolt and spring (2)

When the constant torque hose clamp (Belleville washer) (1) is assembled correctly, the Belleville
washers (1A) are nearly collapsed flat. The proper torque for screw (1B) is based on the diameter
(B) of the clamp. Refer to the following table for the correct torque.

Wave Liner Clamps


The wave liner worm drive clamp is a clamp with a special liner. this liner has a "v grove" that
causes greater pressure points on the hose. This greater compression will offer better sealing
capability at the hose connection.
