CAUTION!

Page 3: Caterpillar Cat GP15ZN Forklift Lift Trucks Service Repair Manual SN:T34-50011 and up

The serviceman or mechanic may be unfamiliar withmany of the systems on this truck. This makes itimportant to use caution when performing servicework. A knowledge of the system and/or componentsis important before the removal or disassembly of anycomponent.

Because of the size of some of the truck components,the serviceman or mechanic should check the weightsnoted in this Manual. Use proper lifting procedureswhen removing any components.

Following is a list of basic precautions that shouldalways be observed.

1. Read and understand all warning plates and decalson the truck before operating, lubricating orrepairing the product.

2. Always wear protective glasses and protectiveshoes when working around trucks. In particular,wear protective glasses when pounding on any partof the truck or its attachments with a hammer orsledge. Use welders gloves, hood/goggles, apronand other protective clothing appropriate to thewelding job being performed. Do not wear loose-fitting or torn clothing. Remove all rings fromfingers when working on machinery.

3. Do not work on any truck that is supported only bylift jacks or a hoist. Always use blocks or jackstands to support the truck before performing anydisassembly.

4. Lower the forks or other implements to the groundbefore performing any work on the truck. If thiscannot be done, make sure the forks or otherimplements are blocked correctly to prevent themfrom dropping unexpectedly.

5. Use steps and grab handles (if applicable) whenmounting or dismounting a truck. Clean any mudor debris from steps, walkways or work platformsbefore using. Always face truck when using steps,ladders and walkways. When it is not possible touse the designed access system, provide ladders,scaffolds, or work platforms to perform safe repairoperations.

6. To avoid back injury, use a hoist when liftingcomponents which weigh 23 kg (50 lb.) or more.Make sure all chains, hooks, slings, etc., are ingood condition and are of the correct capacity. Besure hooks are positioned correctly. Lifting eyesare not to be side loaded during a lifting operation.

7. To avoid burns, be alert for hot parts on truckswhich have just been stopped and hot fluids inlines, tubes and compartments.

8. Be careful when removing cover plates. Graduallyback off the last two bolts or nuts located atopposite ends of the cover or device and pry coverloose to relieve any spring or other pressure, beforeremoving the last two bolts or nuts completely.

9. Be careful when removing filler caps, breathers andplugs on the truck. Hold a rag over the cap or plugto prevent being sprayed or splashed by liquidsunder pressure. The danger is even greater if thetruck has just been stopped because fluids can behot.

WARNING!

Page 4: Caterpillar Cat GP15ZN Forklift Lift Trucks Service Repair Manual SN:T34-50011 and up

10. Always use tools that are in good condition and besure you understand how to use them beforeperforming any service work.

11. Reinstall all fasteners with same part number. Donot use a lesser quality fastener if replacements arenecessary.

12. If possible, make all repairs with the truck parkedon a level, hard surface. Block truck so it does notroll while working on or under truck.

13. Disconnect battery and discharge any capacitors(electric trucks) before starting to work on truck.Hang “Do not Operate” tag in the Operator’sCompartment.

14. Repairs, which require welding, should beperformed only with the benefit of the appropriatereference information and by personnel adequatelytrained and knowledgeable in welding procedures.Determine type of metal being welded and selectcorrect welding procedure and electrodes, rods orwire to provide a weld metal strength equivalent atleast to that of parent metal.

15. Do not damage wiring during removal operations.Reinstall the wiring so it is not damaged nor will itbe damaged in operation by contacting sharpcorners, or by rubbing against some object or hotsurface. Place wiring away from oil pipe.

16. Be sure all protective devices including guards andshields are properly installed and functioningcorrectly before starting a repair. If a guard orshield must be removed to perform the repair work,use extra caution.

17. Always support the mast and carriage to keepcarriage or attachments raised when maintenanceor repair work is performed, which requires themast in the raised position.

18. Loose or damaged fuel, lubricant and hydrauliclines, tubes and hoses can cause fires. Do not bendor strike high pressure lines or install ones whichhave been bent or damaged. Inspect lines, tubesand hoses carefully. Do not check for leaks withyour hands. Pin hole (very small) leaks can resultin a high velocity oil stream that will be invisibleclose to the hose. This oil can penetrate the skinand cause personal injury. Use cardboard or paperto locate pin hole leaks.

19. Tighten connections to the correct torque. Makesure that all heat shields, clamps and guards areinstalled correctly to avoid excessive heat, vibrationor rubbing against other parts during operation.Shields that protect against oil spray onto hotexhaust components in event of a line, tube or sealfailure, must be installed correctly.

20. Relieve all pressure in air, oil or water systemsbefore any lines, fittings or related items aredisconnected or removed. Always make sure allraised components are blocked correctly and bealert for possible pressure when disconnecting anydevice from a system that utilizes pressure.

21. Do not operate a truck if any rotating part isdamaged or contacts any other part duringoperation. Any high speed rotating component thathas been damaged or altered should be checked forbalance before reusing.

Major Electrical Components

Starter switch

The diesel-engine truck, which uses a distributor type injection pump, is provided with an engine automatic stopmechanism of the fuel cut system by the starter switch.

The gasoline-engine truck is also provided with an engine automatic stop mechanism of the fuel cut system.

Starter switch (with Anti-Restart Lock)

This switch has a built-in anti-restart lock, so the key cannot be turned from (ON) to (START) position whilethe engine is running. This prevents starter breakage or flywheel damage caused by an operator restarting the truckwhen the engine is running The gasoline- and diesel-engine models use the same starter switch. In the diesel-enginemodels, (ON) position of the switch is for energizing the glow plugs.

Battery Maintenance

1. State of charge and electrolyte specific gravity (S.G.) adjustment

2. Specific gravity reading and state of charge

To check the battery for state of charge, takehydrometer readings on its electrolyte. The battery maybe fully charged if the S.G. reading is 1.280 to 1.265 at20°C (68°F). The state of charge can be told from theway the electrolyte level goes down to expose the cellplates. If addition of distilled water is necessary everymonth or so, the battery is overcharged. If addition isnot required for more than 3 months, it is likely that thebattery is inadequately charged.

3. Charging precautions

(1) In slow charging, the charging current should beabout 1/10 the capacity of the battery to be charged.

(2) In quick charging, the battery capacity in ampereshould not be exceeded.

(3) During charging, adjust the charging current toprevent the electrolyte temperature from risingbeyond 45°C (113°F).

(4) When connecting the cables to the battery, begin byinstalling the cable to the positive (+) terminal.When disconnecting them from the battery, beginby removing the cable from the negative (−)terminal.

Specific gravity readingState of charge Adjustmentat 20°C (68°F)

1.280 to 1.265 Fully charged If difference in S.G. between any two cells is 0.020 or more,discharge the battery to minimize the difference and thenrecharge battery. Adjust S.G. during recharging.
