  1. Install the cab door (24). Secure the cab door with six 8T-4196 Bolts (25) and six 8T-4121 Washers (14). Use the following procedure in order to adjust the door latch.

    1. Close the cab door. Locate the striker in the cab assembly so that the following conditions exist.

      • The striker is centered vertically in the jaws of the latch.

      • The striker smoothly engages the jaws of the latch.

      • The striker does not guide the door upward.

      • The striker does not guide the door downward.

    1. Check for interference between the head of the striker and the jaws. Check for interference between the head of the striker and the latch. Adjust the striker by adding shims or by removing shims. Add or remove shims only if it is necessary.

    1. Check the secondary latch position and the primary latch position. In the primary latch position, the door is completely closed, and the door is completely latched. In the secondary latch position, the door is latched, but the jaws are not in the primary latch position.

    1. If the seal is restricting the normally closed position of the door, loosen the striker on the post of the door. If an incorrect position of the striker is restricting the normally closed position of the door, loosen the striker on the post of the door. Torque the bolts.

      Note: Adjustment of the hinge may be required in order to achieve the primary latch position. Adjustment of the hinge may be required in order to achieve a correct seal between the door and the cab. Add shims or remove shims, if necessary. The door should be flush with sheet metal of the cab.

      Note: It is possible to adjust the door so that the door is fully closed against the seal with the latch in the secondary position. Increased effort will need to be applied to the door handle if there is excessive pressure between the door and the seal.

    1. The latches are coated with dry lubricant. Wet lubricant is not recommended for use on the latches. Wet lubricant causes dust to build up on the latches. When lubrication is necessary, use a dry lubricant in order to maintain smooth operation.

    Illustration 135g00473153

    Boom dump stop (bottom view of boom) .

  1. Clean the boom and clean the bucket dump stops.

  1. Apply a light coat of grease to the boom dump stop. The grease will help determine the amount of contact that is being made between the boom dump stop and the bucket dump stop.

  1. Operate the machine until the dump stop on the bucket and the dump stop on the boom contact each other. Tilt the bucket backward partially in order to inspect the alignment.

  1. Inspect the dump stops on the bucket and on the boom in order to determine the amount of contact that is being made. If even contact is being made across the dump stop no further action is required. If only partial contact or uneven contact is being made, perform the following steps.

  1. Remove the high spots on the boom dump stop with a hand grinder.

  1. Repeat Steps 2 through 4 until even contact between the dump stop on the bucket and the dump stop on the boom is being made.

    Note: It may be necessary to trim the edges of the boom dump stop in order to prevent hitting the weld on the bucket dump stop. Contact should be 6.4 mm (0.25 inch) from the weld beads on the bucket.

Position Sensor (Tilt Linkage) - Calibrate

Calibration of the tilt linkage position sensor must be performed before this machine can be put into service. The ECM must be programmed with the minimum and maximum travel points of the bucket.

Note: The messages that appear on the diagnostic message screen may differ from the messages that are listed in this procedure.

ReferenceRefer to the section ""Glossary of Calibration Messages" " in this manual for more information on messages that appear on the diagnostic message screen.

  1. Engage the parking brake.

  1. If the machine is equipped with ride control, move the ride control switch to the OFF position.

  1. There are two methods of calibrating the dump position. Follow one of the options below when the command "TILT BKT FWD FULLY" appears on the screen.

    1. Soft Dump Calibration - This method should be used if the customer has loose material that does not stick to the bucket. This method provides longer structural life for the boom, the bucket, and the hitch.

      • Move the tilt lever to the FULL DUMP position.

      • Release the lever just as the bucket hits the boom.

      • DO NOT build up hydraulic pressure in the tilt cylinder.

      • Press "OK" when you are done.

    1. Hard Dump Calibration - This method should only be used if the customer has a problem with material that sticks to the bucket.

      • Move the tilt lever to the FULL DUMP position.

      • Continue to hold the lever after the bucket hits the boom.

      • Build hydraulic pressure.

      • As you are holding the lever in the FULL DUMP position, press the "OK" key.

  1. If the calibration passes, a message will read "CALIBRATION COMPLETED OK".

  1. If the calibration fails, return to the "LINKAGE SNSRS-SET" routine. The computer will calculate a new target value according to the cause of the failure of the sensor. Adjust the sensor to the new target and set the tilt linkage position sensor again.

ReferenceFor the correct procedure in order to set the tilt linkage position sensor, refer to the section ""Position Sensor (Tilt Linkage) - Set" ", in this manual.

Note: The target value will reset to 88.5% after three failures, or two failures if the failures are in opposite directions. Usually, if the target value resets there are other problems. Check the sensor assembly. Ensure that the roller is staying on the cam of the sensor assembly. Ensure that all of the parts are moving freely. Also, ensure that you are putting the boom and the bucket in the proper positions before pressing the "OK" key during the calibration.

The target value is a guideline that uses simple logic in providing a new value. The new target value can be ignored if the cause of the failure of the calibration is understood.

Position Sensor (Tilt Linkage) - Set

Note: This procedure only needs to be performed if the position sensor will not calibrate.

Note: A two-step process is used in order to install the position sensors for the tilt linkage and in order to adjust the position sensors for the tilt linkage. The sensor is first positioned on the shaft using the ""Position Sensor (Tilt Linkage) - Set" " procedure. The procedure that is used to set the sensor is preprogrammed in the implement ECM in order to assist the mechanic. The sensor is then calibrated using the ""Position Sensor (Tilt Linkage) - Calibrate" " procedure. This procedure programs the locations of the extreme positions of the linkage into the implement ECM. The implement ECM must know when the bucket is approaching an extreme position in order for the linkage to avoid hard impact.

  1. Fully tilt the bucket into the BACK position. Lower the bucket onto the ground.

  1. Connect the steering frame lock link.

  1. Engage the parking brake.

  1. If the machine is equipped with ride control, move the ride control switch to the OFF position.

  1. Stop the engine and leave the key start switch in the OFF position.

  1. Press the ">" key until "LINKAGE SNSRS - SET" displays on the diagnostic message screen. Press the "OK" key.

    Note: Press the "OK" key once for each error message that appears on the diagnostic message screen during this procedure. Pressing the "OK" key once for each error message will return you to the service mode. If the "OK" key is pressed too many times, you will be taken out of the service mode, or you will move forward through the instructions before you can read the instructions.

  1. Press "OK" again in order to start the "LINKAGE SNSRS - SET" procedure.

  1. Use the forward arrow key ">" to bring up "TILT SNSR ONLY" on the diagnostic message screen. Press "OK" in order to begin.

  1. Follow the instructions on the diagnostic message screen in order to position the linkage and follow the instructions in order to complete the procedure. The target number for the tilt will be displayed on the diagnostic message screen.

  1. When "PRESS OK TO SHUT DOWN ENGINE" is displayed, press the "OK" key. The engine will stop. Leave the key start switch in the ON position until adjustment of the sensor is complete.

  1. The target number and the current sensor reading will be displayed on the diagnostic message screen. Use the "<" and ">" arrow keys in order to move back and forth between the target and the current values.

    Note: AVSpare Electronic Technician (ET) may be used in order to display the output of the position sensor. This information can be displayed during the adjustment of the sensor for tilt position.

  1. A Fluke meter can also be used in order to adjust the sensor.

    1. Place the prongs into the 299-BK and 762-YL wires. The 299-BK and 762-YL wires correspond to the black wire and white wire on the sensor.

    1. Select DC voltage.

    1. Press the "Hz" button twice in order to display "DUTY CYCLE %".

    1. Use the "CURRENT" value that is shown on the display if you are not using a Fluke meter.


    NOTICE

    The position sensor can be damaged if too much force is applied against the internal stops of the sensor. Always use care when you turn the shaft that is attached to the sensor.


  1. Use the Fluke meter or the display in the cab in order to adjust the sensor. Adjust the sensor until the reading matches the target number. ± 0.5% from the target number is acceptable. Tighten the bolt that locks the lever onto the shaft. Recheck the sensor reading after the bolt is tightened.

  1. The tilt linkage position sensor must be calibrated before the machine is returned to use.

    ReferenceFor the correct procedure to calibrate the tilt linkage position sensor, refer to the section ""Position Sensor (Tilt Linkage) - Calibrate" ", in this manual.
