Read and understand this section. Use the load chart and boom indicator before operating this machine. Practice
repeatedly, till the operations are correctly understood. Firstly practice the operations of flat loads. After the flat
loads can be operated safely and skillfully, operate the complicated loads. The machines covered by this section
are equipped with standard fork attachment. Please operate other attachments with reference to the section
Optional Attachments.
Before using any attachment, take the possible safety influence of attachment into consideration. After the
installation of attachment, the gravity center or the overall dimensions of the machine will probably vary, which
will probably influence the stability of the machine. Therefore, pay attention to the safety of ground operations
and the safety distance from the power cables.
Pay attention to the maximum wading depth of this machine. If the water is too deep, the water will breach into
the engine, axles, and cooling fan to damage the machine. The operation regulation shall be properly considered
before starting any operation not covered by this manual. You may contact a XCMG dealer, who will serve you
with pleasure.
Read the section Operating Safety in the preface and the following information:

d. The stacking height of the loads shall not be higher than the forks.
e. The driving speed shall depend on the driving conditions. Drive at low speed on moist, slip, or loose
ground.
f. Drive with care on rugged roads, as it will probably shake off the load.
In consideration of specific operating environment and working conditions, it‘s the operator‘s responsibility to
prepare appropriate operation regulation for the safe operations of the machine.
It‘s of great importance to perform correct risk evaluation and ensure effective safety protection measures for
fulfillment of operations.
If you don‘t know how to handle specific works, please contact a XCMG dealer, who will serve you with
pleasure.
During the risk evaluation, some factors below should be taken into consideration as suggestions. Sometimes,
other factors should also be taken into consideration.
NOTICE!
− The correct risk evaluation is originated from the well training and rich experiences. Never neglect your life
or others.
1. General knowledge
a. In the loading/unlocking area, the working area should be enough to accommodate the machine body
and outriggers (if equipped). It‘s unnecessary to operate the machine in a narrow space.
b. The working area shall be hard enough to carry the machine and load without clear deformation. The
ideal condition is that the working area can accommodate two machines and its gradient is no higher
than 2.5%(1:40).
c. When the machine is working in a loading/unloading environment probably not handled specially, the
operator can handle with well training and rich experiences. If equipped, the lateral regulator can
enhance the working capacity of your machine.
d. The traveling path shall be solid and reliable and its gradient shall be no higher than:
Maximum upslope gradient: 15%
Maximum downslope gradient: 15%
Maximum lateral gradient: 15%
These data can be used only for normal driving mode of the machine, namely the boom is retracted, the root of the
forks is >300mm above the ground, and the machine is not speeding. It‘s necessary to restrain the loads of specific
shapes, especially on lateral slopes.
2. Personnel
a. Among the personnel for this operation, who is better trained? Who is better experienced? Who is better
competent for this operation? Are they well rested? The driving under ill or fatigue state is really
dangerous.
b. Is the supervision necessary? Is the supervisor well trained and experienced?
c. Is an assistant or other assistance needed for the driver?
3. Machine

WARNING!
− Carefully check the working site before starting the machine for operations. The stacked materials near the
working site will collapse once being impacted by the machine, which will probably cause injury or even
death to you. Check the dangerous factors that may cause out-of-control of the machine (including pits,
fragments, logs, and steel blocks).
DANGER!
− Without permission, it‘s prohibited to lift any person to the high air or stand on the non-protected forks. The
violation of such rule will probably cause serious injury or even death.
158
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
CAUTION!
− Driving the machine too fast or the over-high load will probably lead to rollover of the machine. During the
traveling of the machine, keep the load close to the ground.
− Under loaded condition, do not drive the machine too fast. Drive with care on rugged roads.
WARNING!
− The high slopes and soil ditches will probably collapse. It‘s probably dangerous to park or drive the machine
too close to a high slope or soil ditch.
WARNING!
− It‘s probably dangerous to leave the machine unattended in a public place. In a public place, if the
environmental visibility is impaired, set up safety railings in the working area to keep away the people.
− Maintain correct pressure for the tires and prevent the lateral instability of the machine. Daily check the tires
for damage trace, cut, and piercing object. These defects will probably lead to pressure loss of the tires.
CAUTION!
− Make sure to understand the weight of load before lifting the load. Firstly check the stability of the machine,
even if the load is to be lifted only for several centimeters. If feeling that the machine is unstable, immediately
lower the load. While lifting or extending the boom, if feeling that the machine is unstable, lower and retract
the boom.
− The load shall not exceed the values indicated on the load chart (Refer to the load chart and boom description
in the manual).
CAUTION!
− During loading/unloading, if the ground is not solid, it will probably lead to rollover of the machine and cause
serious injury or even death to you.
− Before the loading/unloading, ensure the horizontal status of the ground. Whenever possible, do not carry the
load on a non-solid ground.
159
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
DANGER!
− It will probably cause electric shock if your machine or attachment is too close to the power cables. Observe
the working area for presence of power cables before starting the working. If yes, contact your local power
supplier and inquire which safety measures shall be taken. Meanwhile, understand the requirements of local
laws and regulations on the operations near power cables.
− After you understand the safety measures to be taken in the working site and understand the laws and
regulations, make sure to abide by these requirements.
NOTICE!
− The load will probably fall off if the spacing between forks is not incorrect. With respect to the load, always
correctly place the forks. Before the lifting, ensure that the forks are completely beneath the load.
NOTICE!
− The load on single fork will fall off. It‘s prohibited to lift the load by single fork.
NOTICE!
− It‘s prohibited to unload the load from the forks by suddenly stopping the machine. Follow the unloading
procedure specified by the Operation Manual.
WARNING!
− Do not exceed the load grade of the forks. The forks will probably break to lose the load and cause possible
damages.
WARNING!
− Maintain correct pressure for the tires and prevent the lateral instability of the machine. Daily check the tires
for damage trace, cut, and piercing object. These defects will probably lead to pressure loss of the tires.
WARNING!
− Do not exceed the load grade of the forks. The forks will probably break to lose the load and cause possible
damages.
160
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
WARNING!
− All lifting equipment, including the forks and its equipment, shall be periodically checked and tested by
qualified personnel, in order to guarantee their performances.
Some countries probably require checking at least once every half year or one year. To guarantee the safety, the
local laws and regulations shall prevail. If you have any questions, please further consult with local XCMG
dealers.
NOTICE!
− Load and unload on a solid and level ground. Take cautions against possible dangers, especially during
steering and reversing.
WARNING!
− Take cautions to separate or stack the fork bodies, as the forks are really heavy.
161
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
Installation of attachment
− Ensure that the attachment is in a position easy for connection to quick change bracket. If the attachment
orientation is incorrect, please adjust the attachment to correct direction and then start operation.
− Take out the locking pin from the quick change bracket and preserve it in a safe position.
− Adjust the posture of machine till the quick change bracket is paralleling with the attachment in the front and
then tilt forward the quick change bracket.
− Drive forward the machine slowly. After the quick change bracket coincides with the mounting point above
the attachment, tilt backward the quick change bracket and slightly lift the boom to lift the attachment off the
ground.
− Insert the locking pin to lock the attachment to the lower portion of quick change bracket. Bear in mind to
lock the fastener on the other side of the pin.
− If the attachment is equipped with hydraulic or electric accessories, connect and lock the hydraulic or electric
pipelines and circuits to the reserved connectors on the front end of the boom.
Disassembling of attachment
− Operate in reverse sequence of the installation procedure of the attachment. Please ensure that the attachment
already stops operation and place the attachment levelly onto the ground before disassembling the attachment.
Non-authorized attachment:
Do not use any non-authorized attachment. The reason is as below:
− The scope and the capacity limitations of the ―appropriate‖, self-made, refitted, or other non-authorized
attachment can‘t be determined.
− The excessive extending or the overload of the telescopic handler will probably result in tip-over of machine
with few warning or without warning and cause serous harms or deaths to the operator and/or surrounding
personnel.
− Some attachments have specific load capacity chart. The type, weight, and dimensions of the attachment must
be equal to or smaller than the data indicated on the load curve chart of the cab. If the specific load capacity
chart is unavailable, please use the applicable load curve chart attached in the telescopic handler.
162
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
− The telescopic handler attachments are only applicable for the telescopic handler with standard quick change
bracket.
− All attachments installed on the telescopic handler must be securely connected to the pins on the quick change
bracket. Do not directly fix the attachment to the forks, quick change bracket, or boom by chain, belt, or
fixture.
− For any applied load, the forks of the fork carriage must support 2/3 of the load length.
− The weights of attachment, rigging, and related load installed on the telescopic handler shall be included in
the total lifting load. Please refer to the load curve chart in use.
− The load curve chart applicable for the fork attachment is established based on the 600mm load center. The
load center must be equal to 600mm for the attachment and load, in order to utilize the available load curve
chart capacity.
− If the load center of combination attachment or load exceeds 600mm, make sure to calculate the equivalent
load, in order to ease the use along with the machine load curve chart.
CAUTION! Ensure that the gravity center of the load to be lifted is centered
between the forks before the lifting of the load.
Example
Based on attachment weight = 200kg, attachment gravity center = 800mm, attachment weight = 1,000kg, and load
gravity center = 740mm, the equivalent load for this example is:
200×800 = 160,000
1000×740 = 740,000
(160,000+740,000)/ 600 = 1500kg
Perform the cross checking for this value and the load capacity of forks, in order to ensure that the rated value of
forks can uniformly carry this load. Then, utilize the load curve chart to determine the safe movement position of
1,500kg and place it within the operating limit scope of the machine.
CAUTION! This calculation is not applicable for the personnel work platform.
To correctly use the load curve chart, the operator must firstly determine/or have the following information:
1. Authorized attachment.
2. Appropriate load curve chart.

222
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
− After 2000 hours, check the welding seams on wheel rims and also check the parts which are loaded.
− Correct any deformation or exchange the broken part.
− The machine from the plant is delivered with tire pressure suitable for transportation only.
− Charged the tires to appropriate pressure before put into operation!
− Moving the machine from a warm workshop of 18º C~21º C (65ºF~70º F) to a place low temperatures, the
tire pressure will change remarkably. If the tires are charged to correct pressure in a warm workshop, the tire
pressure will become insufficient under low temperature conditions.
− Insufficient charge pressure will shorten the useful life of tires.
Check, clean, and lubricate every chain once every 250 running hours. If the chains are working under severe cold
condition or in an environment with corrosive substance, the checking, cleaning, and lubrication interval shall be
shortened to <150h. The chain life can‘t be predicted under different load cycles and environmental conditions.
Therefore, make sure to check frequently, till the prediction of replacement life is required.
Checking and adjustment of chain tension (It’s recommended to check at least once every 250h.)
1. Park the telescopic handler on horizontal ground, put down the outriggers, and keep horizontal the boom with
respect to the ground.
2. Fully extend the boom and then retract it by 200mm.
3. At the middle point of the extended section of telescopic boom, measure the vertical distance (L1) between
the lower end of chain (The side near the boom surface) and the boom plane by a ruler or tape measure.
223
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
The adjustment end for every chain has two nuts. The one far away from the end is the adjustment nut and the one
near the end is the lock nut. During adjustment, take the following methods comprehensively based on the actual
situation:
a. Tightening adjustment nut (1) can move outward the third boom section.
b. Tightening adjustment nut (2) can move inward the third boom section.
6. After completing the adjustment of chain tension, tighten both adjustment nut and lock nut to 120Nm and
ensure that there is at least one complete thread outside of the lock nut.
7. Star the machine, repeat the first three steps, and check the dimension L1.
8. Start the machine, telescope the boom for at least three cycles, and verify the dimension L1.
224
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
Checking of chain wear status (It’s recommended to check at least once every 1,000h or two years.)
1. Elongation of chain
− Park the telescopic handler on horizontal ground, put down the outriggers, and keep horizontal the boom with
respect to the ground.
− Fully extend the boom and repeat the telescoping for several minutes to appropriately tension the chains.
− As the chain probably wears non-uniformly in length, divide the exposed chain to 4 equal parts and check at
the center of every part by a ruler.
− For 25.4mm pitch chain, measure the distance (9 pitches) from the pin center of one link plate to the 10th pin
center. If the measurement exceeds the maximum size (228.6mm+228.6mm×2%=233.2mm), please contact
your dealer to replace the chain.
The maximum material reduction shall not exceed 5%. Measure the chain part rolling on the sprockets and
compare it with normal link plate height. If the measured link plate (1) is less by 5% than normal plate height (2),
please contact your dealer to replace the chain.
In addition to the wear, the high pressure between link plate edge and sprockets can probably squeeze out material
to block the link plate. In such case, replace the chain as well.
3. Wear of chain pin end face:
Measure in the middle of every equal section by a vernier caliper:
225
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
The maximum material reduction shall not exceed 2%. Measure the chain part rolling on the sprockets and
compare it with normal pin length. If the measured pin length is less by 2% than normal pin length, please contact
your dealer to replace the chain.
4. The abnormal friction force between link plate and pin due to insufficient lubrication results in rotation of pin
within the link plate to bring about the falloff risk from link plate.
If the plane is not aligned with the longitudinal direction of chain, please contact your dealer to replace the chain.
In event of any of above conditions or clear elongation or breakage of chain due to overload, immediately replace
the chain. It‘s recommended to replace all chains or replace the chain pair of same function during the
replacement.
6.4.5.7 Cleaning
− Park the telescopic handler on horizontal ground, put down the outriggers, and keep horizontal the boom with
respect to the ground.
− Fully extend the boom.
− Wipe the extended chain by a clean lint-free cloth and then carefully check the chain for wear symptom.
− Scrub the chain by a hard nylon brush and clean diesel to remove the impurities from the chain.
− Scrub the chain by a paint brush dipped with clean diesel and blow it dry by compressed air.
− Lubricate the chain by gear oil and operate the telescoping motions for multiple times, in order to ensure the
sufficient lubrication for every working surface of chain. Meanwhile, check the chain for stable and smooth
motion.
226
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
The boom sliders are planarly rectangular nylon blocks with metal inserts.
− Park the telescopic handler on horizontal ground and adjust the boom to keep it horizontal with respect to the
ground.
− Fully retract the boom and then extend it for 100mm.
− Check all sliders for wear. If the angular indicators (1) on two ends of any slider are invisible or worn
non-uniformly, replace the slider. During replacement, make sure to replace the whole set of sliders. Readjust
the adjustment shims between sliders and boom.
227
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
− Measure the gaps of all side and top sliders. The total gap of side/top slider and next boom section shall be
0.5mm~1.5mm.
− If the gap is too large, please carefully check the wear status of this slider and the opposite slider (slider in
same height or width direction). In event of non-serious wear, restore the gap by adding adjustment shims.
− The boom is already lubricated in the plant before the delivery. Generally, the further lubrication is required
after a period of use, in order to mitigate the wear of sliders. After replacement of any slider or long-time
non-use, the appropriate lubrication is required before the next operation. The multi-purpose lubricating
grease can be used for lubrication.
− Lubricate every 10 hours for the first 50 hours and every 250 hours thereafter. Lubrication time can be
shortened according to working conditions.
In case of insufficient braking oil pressure (4Mpa), alarm display shows braking oil pressure. Check the system.
The machine will reset and continue to work only after troubleshooting.
228
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
In case of power off, the whole machine will be in braking mode automatically. Therefore, the machine has the
functions of gear protection and low oil pressure protection.
In case of need of dragging, the parking brake should be released. If parking brake is in braking mode due to
engine out of work, whole vehicle no power and solenoid valve seizure, the parking brake must be released. The
release method is as follows:
Turn the rocker switch to position ―A‖to release the parking brake, and teh indicator light of the parking meter
goes out. (See Table 5-5)
− After 2000 hours operation, the whole telescopic handler must be visually checked. Check for damages,
deformations, cracking, welding peelings, and other shortcomings which can hinder normal operation,
especially the working apparatus and wheels.
− After 2000 hours, check the fastening of each screw and nut on the telescopic handler. Fasten it if necessary.
− Special attentions should be paid to the rim nuts and screws on the suspending parts. Check the sealing of
each hose connection, engine, and radiator and transmission system for oil or water leakage.
− If the leak is hard to find, stop the engine, and clean the part that is to be checked, then restart the engine.

6.4.6.1 Engine
For a long distance transport or a long time parking/storage in cold weather and its cooling liquid has
not been filled with antifreeze agent, open the drain-plug of the:
− diesel engine,
− water pump,
− engine oil cooler,
− lower chamber of water tank and
− oil cooler of torque converter
− to discharge all water.to prevent freezing of the cooling water.
− Check for oil-debris traces in cooling water or water-debris traces in engine oil ,
− Check if the filters for both water tank and engine oil are leaking or are cracked.
− Check the fastening bolts on the engine fan.
− Rain water, tap water and clear river water can be used as cooling water. It is not recommended to use well
water! Use well-water it only after it is softened. All minerals in well-water may cause poor cooling
performance for the engine.
− In the circumstance of machine application under extremely cold area or in winter, fill antifreeze agent into
the cooling water to prevent cooling water from freezing.
The drivetrain system includes: Gearbox, drive shaft, front and rear steering and drive axles, and wheels.
230
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
− Put all the control handles at their neutral position before starting the engine.
− Before starting the engine, place the controller in the neutral position.
− For safety, the parking brake should be engaged before starting the engine, preventing the machine from
moving when the engine is started. After the engine is started and before driving the machine, disengage the
parking brake and move the controller to the desired gear and drive the machine forward slowly.
− Every time you stop the machine, engage the parking brake, otherwise the machine can move under a certain
conditions such as traction force generated by engine before the engine itself totally stops.
− While the machine driving, you also need to disengage the parking brake, otherwise oil temperature inside
the gearbox will rise very high and parking brake will also get very high temperature very soon, as the
machine torque converter produces a large amount of power output while driving the machine with gear
shifting lever being engaged.
231
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
− After the machine stops, do not let the engine and torque converter run for a prolonged time at idle speed.
− After the initial 100 working hours do the first-time oil exchange for the machine!
− From the first oil exchange check every 1000 working hours and exchange if necessary.
− Drain oil from the gearbox, torque converter, axles, steering system and engine.
− Keep on regularly scheduled maintenance and service to the machine!
− For any signs of deterioration of oil quality or mixing with other substances, check, clean and replace the
filling quantities with the recommended fresh oil.
− Always refer to the list of recommended fluids, lube oils and greases (See Section 6.4 for reliable
information)
Oil Replacement
a. The oil fluid used on this machine must be periodically replaced at certain intervals according to what is
stated in this manual.
b. When performing an oil change.
c. Park the machine onto a flat surface.
d. Start the engine until the oil temperature inside the gearbox rise up to 60°C (140°F).
e. Unscrew the oil-drainage plugs on the gearbox and radiator.
f. Empty the used oil out the gearbox and then the radiator respectively.
g. After the oil has been drained, clean the plugs and area around the plugs.
h. Re-mount the plugs onto their original location with a new sealing-ring.
i. Replace the oil filter and fill the gearbox and radiator with fresh gear oil up to required level.
Driving Axle
− The driving axles has both a front and rear driving axle. The main difference is the rotation speed of their
gear. Gears inside the front axle rotate left, while gears inside the rear axle rotate right.
− For the purpose of increasing traction power, the machine adopts a 4-wheel drive system.
− The driving axle is composed of an axle casing, main reducer (including its differential), and axle shaft and
hub reducer.
− The axle casing is fixed to the frame, which bears the load of the machine frame and transfers it to wheels. It
also is the casing for the main reducer, axle shaft and hub reducer.
− The main driver is a one stage spiral bevel gear reducer, it is mainly used to increase the torque of the
transmission system, lower the transmission, and change the driving direction.
− The differential is a planetary gear couple consisting of two beveled axle shaft gears, spider gears, four
bevel pinion gears and a left and right differential cage. This differentiates the speed for the left and right
wheel and transfers the torque of the main transmission and movement to the hub reducer.
− The left and right side shaft are a full floating type, which can transfer the torque from main transmission
to rim decelerator.
232
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
− Semi-shafts on both left and right are of fully floating type, which function to transfer power and movement
generated from the driving axle and differential to the hub reducer.
− Hub reducer is a planetary gear transmission mechanism. With its inner gear ring fixed on a hub bearing,
planetary gear and hub rotating together. The function of the hub reducer is to increase the torque of driving
system and reduce the speed of transmission.
− Tires and rims are the main driving device are low-pressure wide-base cross-country tires (20.5-25), the
telescopic handler performs effectively off-road.
Tire System
− The force of a tire explosion and the flying debris can cause personal injury, or death or property damage,
If there is a tire explosion, it can throw the wheel hub, tires, driving axle and other components 500m.
or more from the machine.
− Correct tire pressure must be maintained. Never inflate a tire beyond the rated pressure range.
− Operating at high speeds for a prolonged amount of time can cause tire pressure to rise and create heat,
which can result in an explosion. To avoid damage, do not reduce tire pressure, simply slow down the
operation speed of the machine or stop until tires have cooled.
− Inflating the tires with combustible gas is prohibited. It is recommended to use dry nitrogen gas because it
does not aid in combustion. Nitrogen mixes well with air so it can be used even if air was initially used to fill
the tires. When adding pressure to the tire, it is recommended to use nitrogen.
− Inflating tires with nitrogen can possibly reduce the risk of tires explosion, since nitrogen helps prevent
rubber oxidation and corrosion of the wheel hub components.
− Proper tools must be used by specifically trained personnel to inflate tires with nitrogen.
− Do not operate the telescopic handler when the tire pressure is low.
− Check tires for cracks or deformation.
− Check the mounting screws and bolts on the wheels to see if they are securely fastened as required.
233
XC6-3514K Telescopic Handler
− When performing any welding near or around tires, avoid contact or damage to the tire from the welding.
Tire explosion could result from excessive heat or burning of the tire.
− Repairing the tires and wheel hubs is a potentially dangerous procedure. Only trained personnel using the
proper tools and correct procedures are to perform inspection and maintenance to tires and wheel hubs.
Braking System
− Braking system is used for speed controlling or parking on the flatland or slope.
− This telescopic handler has two braking systems, a foot and button controlled brake.
− This system should be used after the telescopic handler stops on a slope or a flat ground.
