Description

The planetary gear axle has an axle housing and two
final drive assemblies. See Figure 1 and Figure 2.
Each final drive assembly is a planetary gear unit.
The planetary gear assembly changes the final drive
ratio, which increases the torque to the drive wheels.
Each unit has a drive axle, sun gear, ring gear hub,

and ring gear. There are also three planetary pin-
ions, a planetary spider, and a housing. The differ-
ential is also installed in the axle housing. The ser-
vice brake is also installed on the drive axle. See the
section Service Brake 1800 SRM 1038 for repair in-
structions of the brakes.

Operation

The rotation of the differential causes the axle shafts
and the sun gears to rotate. The sun gears then cause
the planetary pinions to rotate. Rotation of the pin-
ions causes the planetary spiders to rotate the hubs

and the drive wheels. The ring gear and the ring gear
hub do not rotate.

REPAIR

Repairing or Replacing Parts

WARNING

Do not repair axle housings by bending or
straightening.

Repair of axle housings by

bending or straightening can cause poor per-
formance and possible unsafe operation of the
axle. This can cause serious personal injury.

NOTE: Threads must be without damage and clean,
so accurate adjustment and correct torque values can
be applied to fasteners and parts.

Replace worn or damaged parts of an axle assembly.
The following are some examples for possible repair
and replacement:
Replace any fastener, if corners of wrench flats are

worn.

Replace washers, if damaged.
Replace gaskets, oil seals, and grease seals.
Clean parts and apply silicon gasket material,

where required.

Remove nicks, marks, and burrs from parts having

machined or ground surfaces. Use a fine file, India
stone, emery cloth, or crocus cloth.

Clean and repair threads of fasteners and holes.

Use a die or tap of correct size or a fine file.

Welding

Do not repair the drive axle assemblies by welding.
Welding can detract from the structural integrity of a
component, particularly to heat treated parts where
the benefit of heat treatment can be nullified by weld-
ing.

CLEAN

Ground or Polished Parts

WARNING

To prevent serious eye injury, always wear safe
eye protection when performing vehicle main-
tenance or service.

WARNING

Solvent cleaners are flammable, poisonous,
and can cause burns.

Examples of solvent

cleaners

are

carbon

tetrachloride,

emul-

sion-type

cleaners,

and

petroleum-based

cleaners.

To avoid serious personal injury

when using solvent cleaners, carefully follow
the manufacturer’s product instructions and
these procedures.
• Wear safe eye protection.
• Wear clothing that protects your skin.
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Do not use gasoline or solvents that contain

gasoline. Gasoline can explode.

• Use hot solution tanks or alkaline solutions

correctly. Follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions carefully.

CAUTION

• Use only solvent cleaners to clean ground

or polished metal parts. Hot solution tanks
or water and alkaline solutions will damage
these parts. Isopropyl alcohol, kerosene, or
diesel fuel can be used for this purpose.

• If required, use a sharp knife to remove gas-

ket material from parts.

Be careful not to

damage the ground or polished surfaces.

1.

Use a cleaning solvent, kerosene, or diesel fuel
to clean ground or polished parts or surfaces.
NEVER USE GASOLINE.

2.

Remove gasket material from parts. Take care
not to damage ground surfaces with grease to
prevent corrosion.

3.

DO NOT clean ground or polished parts in a hot
solution tank, water, steam, or alkaline solution.

Parts With Rough Finishes

1.

Use a cleaning solvent or a hot solution tank with
a weak alkaline solution to clean parts with a
rough finish.

2.

Leave parts in the hot solution tank until they
are completely cleaned and heated. When the
parts are clean, remove them from the tank.

3.

Wash the parts with water until you completely
remove the alkaline solution.

Axle Assemblies

NOTE: A complete axle assembly can be steam
cleaned on the outside to remove dirt.

NOTE: Before the axle is steam cleaned, close or put
a cover over all the openings in the axle assembly.
Examples of openings are the breathers or vents in
air chambers.

Drying Cleaned Parts

CAUTION

Dry bearings with clean paper or rags. Do not
use compressed air, which can cause abrasive
particles to contaminate the bearings. Damage
to components and reduced lining life can re-
sult.

Immediately after cleaning, use clean paper, rags, or
compressed air to dry parts.

PREVENTING CORROSION

NOTE: Parts must be clean and dry before lubricat-
ing them.

1.

If assembling the parts immediately after clean-
ing them, lubricate the clean, dry parts with
grease to prevent corrosion.

2.

If storing the parts after cleaning them, apply
a corrosion-preventive material to all machined
surfaces. Store the parts in a special paper or
other material that prevents corrosion.

PARTS INSPECTION

It is very important to inspect all parts carefully and
completely before axle or carrier is assembled. Check
all parts for wear and replace damaged parts. Re-
placement of damaged or worn parts will prevent
breakdown of assembly later.

Planetary Gear Carrier

NOTE: The chambers must be smooth to prevent
damage to nylon coating on planetary pinion shaft
during installation. If large bore chambers are not
smooth, use an emery cloth to clean chamber sur-
face.

1.

Inspect large bore chambers.

NOTE: Do not use planetary gears with rough bore
surfaces.

2.

Inspect planetary gear bores.

WARNING

Observe all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS pro-
vided by press manufacturer concerning press
operation to avoid serious injury and possible
damage to components during assembly and
installation procedures.

3.

Place planetary gear carrier in press with flange
side UP. Support planetary gear carrier as re-
quired.

4.

Install inner thrust washer (small bore). Place
washer tab into spider indent and align washer
bore with planetary gear carrier bore.

5.

Apply thin coat of same gear lubricant used in
the wheel end to the planetary gear bore.

6.

Slide planetary gear and outer thrust washer
into planetary gear carrier. Align the bores of
the parts and place outer thrust washer tab into
planetary gear carrier indent.

7.

Apply thin coat of gear lube to nylon coating on
pinion shaft.

NOTE: The pinion shaft must be aligned so flat sur-
face on large end faces outside of wheel hub circle.
This alignment provides clearance for planetary gear
carrier cover and prevents shaft from rotating when
you install planetary gear carrier cover.

8.

Install planetary pinion shaft in planetary gear
carrier and through planetary gear and thrust

washer. Allow large end of shaft to extend from
the spider. See Figure 17.

Repeat Step 1 through Step 8 to install second
and third set of planetary pinion shafts, gears,
and washers.

NOTE: When necessary, rotate shafts so the plane-
tary gear carrier cover fits over the flats. After you
align shafts, remove cover.

10. Check alignment of pinion shafts by placing plan-

etary gear carrier cover over shaft ends.

NOTE: If you cannot install pinion shaft into plane-
tary gear carrier assembly by hand, use a press to
install pinion shaft into planetary gear carrier as-
sembly until shoulder bottoms against inner (bottom)
thrust washer. When a press is not available, use a
brass drift and a mallet to install pinion shafts.

11. Install each pinion shaft into planetary gear car-

rier assembly by hand.

Drive Axle

WARNING

Verify lifting device has the rated capacity of
4500 kg (9921 lb) when installing the drive axle.

1.

Carefully move drive axle assembly into position
under lift truck using another lift truck.

2.

Align axle assembly to the frame.

3.

Install nuts and bolts that hold axle to the
frame and tighten to 1650 to 2050 N•m (1217 to
1512 lbf ft).

4.

Connect drive shaft at differential.

WARNING

Brake linings can contain dangerous fibers.
Breathing dust from these linings is a cancer
or lung disease hazard. Do not create dust! Do
not clean brake parts with compressed air or
by brushing. Use vacuum equipment approved
for brake dust or follow the cleaning proce-
dure in this section. When the brake drums
are removed, do not create dust.

Do not sand, grind, chisel, hammer, or change
linings in any way that will create dust. Any
changes to linings must be done in a restricted
area with special ventilation. Protective cloth-
ing and a respirator must be used.

Wheel Ends

Fill

1.

Rotate wheel end until oil fill line and oil level
line are parallel to ground.

NOTE: Clean all magnetic plugs and install oil drain
plug in spider prior to filling wheel end with lubri-
cant.

2.

Remove oil fill plug from cover.

NOTE: The rigid axle wheel end and housing bowl
share the same oil and oil level.

Do not fill through axle housing bowl only. For axles
with a common level, fill axle at each wheel end and
axle housing bowl to the bottom of the fill plug hole
with specific oil. Wait to allow the oil to flow through
the axle. Check oil level again and fill to specified
level if necessary.

3.

Add oil to each wheel end and then to the bowl.
See the section Periodic Maintenance 8000
SRM 1154 (E117) and Periodic Maintenance
8000 SRM 1237 (F117) for recommended lubri-
cant specifications.

4.

Replace and securely tighten all plugs.

INSTALL

Drive Wheels and Tires

WARNING

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

1.

Put tire in a safety cage. See Figure 18.

NOTE: If installation is not correct, remove all air
pressure from the tire. Remove valve core to verify
all air pressure has been removed and make adjust-
ments. Clearance at ends of lock ring should be 13
to 25 mm (0.5 to 1 in.) when tire has the correct air
pressure.

2.

Verify all wheel parts are correctly installed. See
Figure 19.

3.

Tap lock ring lightly to verify it is in the seat.

WARNING

The tires and wheels can weigh approximately
750 kg (1653 lb). Verify the lifting device has
the rated capacity to lift the tires and wheels
or personal injury may occur.

4.

Install wheels on lift truck.

CAUTION

Check all wheel nuts after 2 to 5 hours of opera-
tion: when new lift trucks begin operation and
on all lift trucks when the wheels have been
removed and installed.

Tighten the nuts as

shown in Figure 20, Figure 21, Figure 22, and
Figure 23.
When the nuts stay tight for eight
hours, the interval for checking the torque can
be extended to 500 hours.

5.

Tighten the wheel nuts as shown in Figure 20,
Figure 21
, Figure 22, and Figure 23.

First,

tighten the nuts to 35 N•m (26 lbf ft), then
tighten to 100 N•m (74 lbf ft).

Check for

correct alignment of wheel parts and inside
wheel-to-hub alignment after tightening nuts 1
through 4. Finally, tighten the nuts to the torque
value shown in Figure 20, Figure 21, Figure 22,
and Figure 23.
