FOREWORD INTRODUCTION

FOREWORD F.1-0000051238

This manual is written for use by the operator and/or the service technician and is designed to help these persons
become fully knowledgeable of the truck and all its systems in order to keep it operating safely and efficiently.
All operators and maintenance personnel must read and understand the materials in this manual before
operating the truck or performing maintenance and/or operational checks on the truck. All safety notices,
warnings and cautions are to be understood and followed when operating or accomplishing repairs on the truck.
The illustrations used in this manual are typical of the component shown and may not be an exact reproduction
of what is found on the truck.
A product identification plate is located on the frame in front of the right side front wheel and designates the
truck model number, product identification number (vehicle serial number), and maximum GVW (Gross Vehicle
Weight) rating.
The KOMATSU truck model designation consists of three numbers and one letter (i.e. 830E).
The three numbers represent the basic truck model.
The letter “M”, when present, designates a Mechanical drive system;
The letter “E”, when present, designates an Electrical wheel motor drive system.
The product identification number (vehicle serial number) contains information which will identify the original
manufacturing bill of material for this unit. This complete number will be necessary for proper ordering of many
service parts and/or warranty consideration.
The GVW is what determines the load on the drive train, frame, tires, and other components. The vehicle design
and application guidelines are sensitive to the total maximum GVW. GVW is TOTAL WEIGHT: the Empty Vehicle
Weight + the fuel & lubricants + the payload.
To determine allowable payload: Service all lubricants for proper level and fill fuel tank of empty truck (which
includes all accessories, body liners, tailgates, etc.) and then weigh truck. Record this value and subtract from
the GVW rating. The result is the allowable payload.
NOTE: Accumulations of mud, frozen material, etc. become a part of the GVW and reduces allowable payload.
To maximize payload and to keep from exceeding the GVW rating, these accumulations should be removed as
often as practical.
Exceeding the allowable payload will reduce expected life of truck components.

• Unsafe use of this machine may cause serious injury or death. Operators and maintenance
personnel must read and understand this manual before operating or maintaining this machine.
• This manual should be kept in or near the machine for reference, and periodically reviewed by all
personnel who will come into contact with it.

Ladder System Description


The RLS is an electro-hydraulic ladder powered by the
truck’s 24VDC electrical system. The RLS provides a
safe means to mount and dismount the truck under
normal and emergency conditions. The RLS consists
of two main control components, the in-cab control
panel and the power pack that operates the ladder.
• The in-cab control panel is a microprocessor
that controls, monitors, stores and reports ladder
system operational data.
• The electro-hydraulic power pack is in a ground
level stainless steel cabinet. It houses the main
control hydraulics and electrical components that
lower and raise the ladder.
The RLS also contains wiring harnesses, hydraulic
hoses and an emergency down valve.

GENERAL INFORMATION E.29-0000051468

The automatic lubrication system is a pressurized


lubricant delivery system which delivers a controlled
amount of lubricant to designated lube points. The
system is controlled by logic in the Interface Module
which signals a solenoid valve to operate a hydraulic
motor powered grease pump. Hydraulic oil for pump
operation is supplied by the truck steering circuit.
A 24VDC solenoid mounted on the manifold turns the
pump on and off. The pump is driven by the rotary
motion of the hydraulic motor, which is then converted
to reciprocating motion through an eccentric crank
mechanism. The pump is a positive displacement,
double-acting type as grease output occurs on both
the up and the down stroke.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS RESERVE ENGINE OIL SYSTEM (if equipped)

RESERVE ENGINE OIL SYSTEM (if Operation


equipped) A.18-0000071908
The reserve engine oil system works by constantly
circulating the engine oil between the engine oil pan
and a supplementary external reserve tank while
maintaining the appropriate running oil level. The
intent is that a larger volume of engine oil slows the
oil deterioration, allowing longer periods between oil
changes.
The normal reserve system capacity of oil carried
in the tank can be one half or nearly the same
(depending on tank size) volume inside the engine.
In the process of continuous adjustment of the engine
oil level, there is a constant circulation of oil between
the engine and the reserve tank. The volume of
oil in the tank becomes part of the working oil for
the engine. Oil change intervals may usually be
extended in proportion to the increased working oil
volume. Extension beyond a proportional increase
is often possible, but should be undertaken only
as determined by oil sampling and analysis. Local
conditions such as engine application, climate, and
fuel quality should be taken into consideration before
determining permissible oil life.
A heated suction line is installed between the reserve
oil pump and engine oil pan which allows the pump
to function down to minimum ambient temperature
of -30C (-22F). Engine oil becomes more viscous
in lower temperatures, causing the pumps to work
harder and wear more quickly. Heating the oil
keeps the oil less viscous, thus maintaining the
corresponding flow rate at the inlet of the reserve
pump.
An optional heated return line is available which 1. Reserve Tank 8. Fill Cap

LUBRICATION AND SERVICE GENERAL INFORMATION

For trucks operating in cold weather applications with


a minimum ambient temperature of -30°C (-22°F), a
heated suction line is installed between the reserve oil
pump and engine oil pan. Engine oil becomes more
viscous in lower temperatures, causing the pumps
to work harder and wear more quickly. Heating the
oil keeps the oil less viscous, thus maintaining the
corresponding flow rate at the inlet of the reserve
pump.
An optional heated return line is available for trucks
operating in cold weather applications with a minimum
ambient temperature beyond -30°C (-22°F).
