G1 - BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM
These operations are necessary only in the following
cases:
• A component of the fuel system is replaced
• A drained fuel tank
• Running out of fuel
Ensure that the fuel level in the tank is sufficient and
bleed in the following order:
1.Open the engine cover.
2.Turn on the ignition for three minutes, to give the
lift pump time to release air from the filter.
3.Switch off the ignition key.
IMPORTANT:
Do not engage the starter motor for
more than 30 seconds. Let it cool between unsuc-
cessful starting attempts.
BLEEDING THE INJECTORS
• Remove the injectors cover (1) (fig. G6/1).
• Loosen the high pressure connectors (2) (fig.
G6/2) of all the injectors.
• Activate the starter until the diesel fuel flows out
free of air at the high pressure connectors (2) (fig.
G6/2).
• Tighten the connections while the diesel fuel is
flowing out [tightening torque: 22 ft.-lbs. (30
Nm)].
• The engine is then ready to be started.
• Run the engine slowly for five minutes immedi-
ately after bleeding the fuel system, to ensure that
the injection pump has been bled thoroughly.
NOTE:
If the engine runs properly for a short time
and then stops or runs irregularly, check for pos-
sible leaks in the low pressure circuit. If in doubt,
contact your dealer.
G2 - WHEELS
CHANGE
For this operation, use a hydraulic jack and a safety
support.
• Stop the telescopic handler, if possible on even
and hard ground. Apply the parking brake.
• To stop the telescopic handler (see chapter: 4 -
OPERATING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
G - STOPPING THE TELESCOPIC HAN-
DLER).
• Switch on the hazard warning lights.
• Block the telescopic handler in both directions on
the wheel opposite to the wheel to be changed.
• Break loose the nuts of the wheel to be changed.
• Place the jack under the flared axle tube, as near
as possible to the wheel and adjust the jack (fig.
G2/1).
• Lift until the tire comes off the ground, and put
the safety support in place under the axle (fig.
G2/2).
• Completely loosen and remove the wheel nuts.
• Remove the wheel and roll it to the side.
• Install the new wheel on the wheel hub.
• Replace the nuts by hand. If necessary, grease
them.
• Remove the safety support and lower the tele-
scopic handler with the jack.
• Tighten the wheel nuts with a torque wrench (see
chapter: 6 - MAINTENANCE: A - DAILY OR
EVERY 10 HOURS SERVICE for tightening
torque).
