Working on the electrical system of the machine
• Only use test instruments with a light-emitting diode, never a

test light with a light bulb, for example, during trouble-shooting
of the electrical system!
The high firing voltage of the bulb can destroy expensive elec‐
tronic components.
• When installing a two-way radio, mobile phone, etc., installa‐
tion must be performed according to manufacturer's instruc‐
tions in order to eliminate interference with electronic systems
and components intended for the function of the machine.
Repairing hydraulic system

When replacing a pump or after other repair work to the hydraulic

system, where air may have entered the system, the points below
should be followed:
1 The pumps must be filled with oil.
2 Start the engine and run it at low idling for approx. 10 minutes
without actuating any hydraulic functions.
3 Actuate all hydraulic functions a few times with the engine
running at low idling.
IMPORTANT! The hydraulic cylinders must not go against
their end-of-stroke positions.
4 Operate all hydraulic functions (the hydraulic cylinders against
their end-of-stroke positions) a few times without causing
overflow at a raised engine speed, approx. 20–25 r/s (1200–
1500 rpm).
Electric welding
For electric welding on the machine or on attachments on

machine:
- ground connection turned off with battery disconnect switch.
- fuse FH4 must be removed, located next to the battery discon‐
nect switch.
- connectors for all control units (ECUs) must be unplugged.
NOTE! Ground the welding unit as close as possible to the weld‐

ing point.
11
Cleanliness, brake and hydraulic systems
Maintain the best possible cleanliness when working on these

systems. Wipe off all pipe and hose connections before discon‐
necting and remove paint flakes, etc. Plug all pipes, hoses, cylin‐
ders, etc. immediately after disconnecting. Never install a
hydraulic hose which has not been plugged until it has been thor‐
oughly cleaned.
Charging batteries
Explosion hazard
Charging produces hydrogen in the battery, which mixes with
oxygen to produce an explosive mixture. A short circuit, naked
flame or spark near a battery can cause a powerful explosion.
Always switch off the charging current before removing the
charger clamps. Ensure appropriate ventilation, especially if the
battery is charged in a confined area.
Corrosive sulphuric acid

The battery electrolyte contains corrosive sulphuric acid. Elec‐
trolyte spilled on bare skin must be removed immediately. Wash
with soap and plenty of water. If electrolyte gets into your eyes or
onto any other sensitive part of the body, rinse immediately with
plenty of water and seek immediate medical attention.

Leakage
12 Start and warm up the machine and check that all seals at
the oil plugs seal tight, and check that all visible gaskets are
intact and do not leak. Also check the oil filters' seals. If there
is leakage, remove the filter and check the sealing face.
Usually it does not help to tighten more.
Pipes and hoses

13 Check that all pipes and hoses are intact and not deformed.
Coolant system, check the level
WARNING!
Open the expansion tank cap slowly and carefully. The cooling
system operates at high pressure and hot coolant may rush out
and cause severe burns.
14 Level check.
Fill coolant in the expansion tank.
NOTE! Use Volvo Coolant VCS.
The coolant level shall be between max. and min. in the

expansion tank.
Filling
1 The engine shall be run warm and the temperature
control shall be set to "warm".
2 Let the engine cool down.
3 Fill coolant up to the max. marking on the expansion
tank.

16 Drain as needed
NOTE! Collect fuel spills by using a collection container or a

plastic hose.
IMPORTANT! Always handle oils and other environmentally

hazardous fluids in an environmentally safe manner.
Draining of water from the fuel must be done manually.
A non-return valve in the filter head prevents the fuel from
flowing back to the tank. Since no fuel can flow back the
pressure will remain and thus the water will not be drained
unless new fuel is pumped in.
When draining, proceed as follows:

1 Place the end of the hose in a container
2 Loosen the drain nipple
3 Pump with the hand pump until all water has been
forced out from the water trap
4 Tighten the drain nipple

26 Main filter, changing
When the alarm text "Clogged air filter" is shown, or every
1000 hours, the filter shall be changed or cleaned.
Operating time between filter changes can vary depending
on the machine's operating environment. Certain environ‐
ments may require frequent filter changes.
The filter can be cleaned after instruction from an authorized
brand name workshop. After five cleanings, or if the filter is
damaged, it shall be changed.
NOTE! Enter the number of filter head changes or cleanings

1 on the decal by the safety filter's end.
In connection with filter change, also clean the cover for the
air cleaner since it acts as a reservoir for particles that are
not trapped in the filter.
Check that all hose and pipe connections from the air

176 Emergency measures
Mechanical release of parking brake
Op. no.176-001
If the parking brake cannot be released with the standard switch

it can be released manually.
Tools required for releasing the parking brake are included in the
machine's tool kit.
- Socket 13/16"
- Allen socket 5/16"
- Ratchet handle
- Adjustable wrench, for removing cover.
NOTE! This may only be done to permit towing. The parking brake
must be restored immediately after towing has been completed.
For restoring manually released parking brake see, 550, Parking

brake, adjusting
WARNING!
Park the machine on a level surface. Fit blocks in front of and
behind the wheels in order to prevent the machine from rolling.
Remove the brake caliper's cover.
Fig.192
125
Loosen the lock nut and screw it out 1/2 turn.
V1011011
Fig.193
Screw out the brake piston's adjusting screw (approx. two turns)
until the brake pads' contact releases from the brake disc.
Now the machine can be moved, but the parking brake does not
work.

Towing
NOTE! Towing of machine may not take place other than in

exceptional cases, then a tow bar must be used and towing speed
may be max. 10 km/h (6.2 mph).
The tow bar shall be connected to the tow hitch at the rear of the
machine and must not be connected to the lifting eyes.
The speed and towing vehicle must be adapted with consideration

of the grades that have to be passed.
An operator must operate the towed machine.
Towing distance should not exceed 10 km (6.2 miles). Towing for

longer distances may damage the hydraulic transmission as the
oil pump is not driven and lubrication is unsatisfactory.
126
When towing over longer distances, both the front and rear pro‐
peller shaft drive flanges must be disconnected at the axles in
order to disengage the transmission.
WARNING!
When the diesel engine cannot be started:
After a few manoeuvres the brake and steering functions will be

lost in this situation, and that is why towing should only be per‐
formed in emergencies and according to a competent/ trained
person's instructions and guidance.
The following shall be performed:

- Secure the machine so that it cannot start to roll.
- Unload any load.
- Release the parking brake. Follow instructions in Manual
release of parking brake.
- Take any other required actions so that the machine can be
towed.
- When disconnecting the tow vehicle, ensure that the towed
machine cannot start to roll.
