SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
• When lifting parts or assemblies, make sure all slings, chains, or cables are correctly fastened, and
that the load being lifted is balanced. Make sure the crane, cables, and chains have the capacity
to support the weight of the load.

• Do not lift heavy parts by hand, use a lifting mechanism.

• Wear safety glasses.

• DISCONNECT THE BATTERY CONNECTOR before doing any maintenance or repair on electric
lift trucks. Disconnect the battery ground cable on internal combustion lift trucks.

• Always use correct blocks to prevent the unit from rolling or falling. See HOW TO PUT THE LIFT
TRUCK ON BLOCKS in the Operating Manual or the Periodic Maintenance section.

• Keep the unit clean and the working area clean and orderly.

• Use the correct tools for the job.

• Keep the tools clean and in good condition.

• Always use HYSTER APPROVED parts when making repairs. Replacement parts must meet
or exceed the specifications of the original equipment manufacturer.

• Make sure all nuts, bolts, snap rings, and other fastening devices are removed before using force
to remove parts.

• Always fasten a DO NOT OPERATE tag to the controls of the unit when making repairs, or if the
unit needs repairs.

• Be sure to follow the WARNING and CAUTION notes in the instructions.

• Gasoline, Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG), Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), and Diesel fuel are
flammable. Be sure to follow the necessary safety precautions when handling these fuels and
when working on these fuel systems.

• Batteries generate flammable gas when they are being charged. Keep fire and sparks away from
the area. Make sure the area is well ventilated.

NOTE: The following symbols and words indicate safety information in this
manual:

WARNING
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in

NOTE 4: Change engine oil and filter after first 100 hours of operation. Change transmission oil filter after first 500 hours
of operation - see 2000 Hr/1 Yr service procedures.
NOTE 5: Recommended service intervals are based on a normal application in a clean environment. Applications in-
volving contaminated environments such as high levels of air borne debris (dust and waste paper); chemical or abrasive
compounds; poor ground conditions; intensive usage at high performance levels; or other abnormal conditions will require
more frequent servicing. At your request your Hyster dealer will advise you of the appropriate service intervals based on
an application survey.
NOTE 6: In dirty or dusty environments, replace at 1000 hours or as needed.
NOTE 7: Multipurpose grease with 2 to 4% Molybdenum Disulfide.
NOTE 8: Vehicles used in paper application require regular inspection and cleaning to minimize risk of fire. This should
be done at least once every 8 hours or more frequently, depending upon operating environment. Use compressed air and
steam clean as necessary.
NOTE 9: See Capacities and Specifications 8000 SRM 1249 for spark plug gap and type of spark plugs to use.
NOTE 10: Lubricate mast every three months if unit has less than 1000 hours.
NOTE 11: Lubricate at first sign of visible surface rust.
NOTE 12: Do not open the air filter canister except to change the air filter element. See Maintenance Procedures Every
2000 Hours or Annually to change air filter element.
NOTE 13: Initial valve adjustment is at 250 hours or 3 months. Subsequent adjustments must be performed at 2000-
hour/2-year intervals, whichever comes first.
NOTE 14: Replace after 3000 hours. Use hour interval only.
NOTE 15: Use Ethylene Glycol Boron-free Antifreeze. Purchase a pre-diluted 50/50 solution; or mix 50% concentrate with
50% distilled or deionized water.
NOTE 16: Inspect after an impact likely to cause damage. In large diameter paper-roll production applications, inspect at
first 4000 hours with subsequent inspection at 2000 hour intervals. At your request, your Hyster dealer will advise you
of the appropriate service intervals based on an application survey.

Remove the lift chains. Clean the lift chains by soak-


ing them in a solvent that has a petroleum base for
at least 30 minutes. Use compressed air, adjusted to
a maximum output of 103 kPa (15 psi), to completely
dry the chains when they are clean.

Lubricate the lift chains by soaking them in 30W en-


gine oil for at least 30 minutes. Remove the chains
from the oil. Hang the chains for one hour so excess
oil will drain from the chains.

BRAKE OIL (DRY BRAKE), REMOVE


Perform the following procedure to remove used
brake oil from the remainder of the brake system.

1. Ensure that the master cylinder reservoir is


filled with brake oil.

NOTE: This procedure cannot be performed by one


person.

2. Put one end of a rubber hose on the bleed screw


of the wheel cylinder. Put the other end of the
hose into a empty container.

3. Loosen the bleed screw at the wheel cylinder one


turn so that the used brake oil can be removed
from the brake system. Slowly push the brake
pedal and hold it at the end of its stroke. Close
the bleed screw. Release the brake pedal.

NOTE: The new brake oil will be easily recognized, as


the color will be more clear than the used oil which
will be darker.

Install Tire on Wheel

WARNING
Damage to the tire and wheel assembly and injury or death can occur if you do not do the follow
procedures:
• Clean and inspect all parts of the wheel before installing the tire.
• DO NOT use any damaged or repaired wheel parts.
• Make sure that all parts of the wheel are the correct parts for that wheel assembly.
• DO NOT mix parts between different types or manufacturers of wheels.
• DO NOT mix types of tires, type of tire tread, or wheel assemblies of different manufacturers on
any one lift truck.

WARNING
DO NOT use a steel hammer on the wheel. Use a rubber, lead, plastic, or brass hammer to put parts
together.

WARNING
DO NOT lubricate the tire bead with antifreeze or petroleum-based liquid. Vapors from these liq-
uids can cause an explosion during inflation or use.

STEP 1.
Clean interior and exterior bead of the tire. Lubri-
cate tire beads and the inside of the tire, up to the
tire shoulders. Apply lubricant to the entire under-
side of the TBS.

NOTE: If the wheel rim width is less than six inches, the TBS will contain one valve hole to accommodate the
needle valve. If the wheel rim width is greater than six inches, the TBS will have two holes for the needle valve.

One hole is centrally located and the other is offset, to ensure the correct positioning of the valve in the valve
slot. The valve hole that is not used should be sealed with a small plastic plug.

STEP 2.
Apply lubricant to the needle valve and the valve hole
that will be used (see NOTE) by inserting and remov-
ing the lubricated valve several times. If a three- or
four-piece wheel is being used, remove the valve. If
a two-piece wheel is being used, leave valve in valve
hole.

If the TBS has two-valve holes, lubricate the plastic


plug and insert into valve hole that will not be used.

105
Wheel and Tire Replacement 8000 SRM 1248

STEP 3.
Place the TBS inside the tire, making sure that the
wings of the TBS are not folded over. Make a mark
on the tire to note the position of the valve hole in the
TBS.

STEP 4.
Apply lubricant to the rim. If a four-piece wheel is
being used, lubricate the advance band. Slide the tire
and the TBS onto the wheel.

Line up the valve hole in the TBS with the valve slot
in the wheel. Lubricate and insert the valve into the
valve hole. Make sure it is fully inserted.

STEP 5.
Place the wheel and tire assembly on a flat surface.
Turn the valve a 1/4 turn to lock the collar under the
edges of the rim valve slot.

STEP 6.
Raise the tire and position the base and threaded
stem of the press through the hole in the center of
the wheel. Insert in wheel assembly, the following
parts:
• Advance band (four-piece wheel only)
• Loose flange
• Locking ring

106
8000 SRM 1248 Wheel and Tire Replacement

STEP 7.
Position the advance band. Ensure that it does not go
in too far and damage the valve. Position the arms of
the press onto the loose flange.

Push down on the press to depress the tire beads un-


til locking ring groove is fully exposed.

STEP 8.
Insert tire tool into the locking ring groove, and a
vise grip on other end. Remove vise grip. Release
the press and check that all component parts are
correctly positioned. Replace the valve core.

STEP 9.
Inflate tire to 103 kPa (15 psi). Tap wheel with a mallet to ensure all components are correctly sealed. Remove
the press from wheel and tire assembly.

Add Air to Pneumatic Tubeless Tire

WARNING
Add air pressure to tires only in safety cage.
Inspect safety cage for damage before use.
When air pressure is added, use a chuck that
fastens onto valve stem. Make sure there is
enough hose to permit operator to stand away
from safety cage when air pressure is added to
tire.

DO NOT sit or stand by safety cage.

1. Put tire in safety cage. See Figure 100.

2. Add air to tire to the recommended air pressure


that is shown on the Nameplate. Install valve Figure 100. Add Air to Tires
