General

General

This section contains a Maintenance Schedule and
the instructions for maintenance and inspection.

The Maintenance Schedule has time intervals for
inspection, lubrication, and maintenance for your
ReachStacker

®

. The recommendation for the time

intervals are for eight hours of operation per day.
The time intervals must be decreased from the rec-
ommendations in the Maintenance Schedule for the
following conditions:
If the ReachStacker is used more than 8 hours per

day.

If the ReachStacker must work in dirty operating

conditions.

Your dealer for Hyster ReachStackers has the equip-
ment and trained personnel to do a complete program
of inspection, lubrication, and maintenance. A reg-
ular program of inspection, lubrication, and main-
tenance will help your ReachStacker give more effi-
cient performance and operate for a longer period of
time.

WARNING

Do not make repairs or adjustments unless you
have both authorization and training. Repairs
and adjustments made on a ReachStacker by
people without authorization and training can
make a dangerous operating condition.

Do not operate a ReachStacker that needs re-
pairs. Report the need for repairs immediately.
If repair is necessary, put a DO NOT OPER-
ATE tag in the operator’s area. Remove the key
from the key switch.

Some users have service personnel and equipment
to do the inspection, lubrication, and maintenance
shown in the Maintenance Schedule. Service Man-
uals are available from your dealer for Hyster
ReachStackers to help users who do their own main-
tenance.

SERIAL NUMBER DATA

The serial number for the ReachStacker is on the Ca-
pacity Plate. It is also on a channel on the right side
of the engine compartment behind the cab. The se-
rial number indicates the design series, manufactur-
ing plant, and the year manufactured.

Example:

A222

E

1509

U

(1)

(2)

(3)

(4)

(1) The first letter and number of the serial number
indicates the design series and the model number of
the ReachStacker.

(2) The second letter identifies the manufacturing
plant. Example: E=Nijmegen, The Netherlands

(3) The number series indicates the sequence of man-
ufacture where the vehicle was made.

(4) The letter indicates the year of manufacture start-
ing with: A=1980. The letter W=1999, X=2000, and
Y=2001. (The letters I, O, and Q are not used.)

ENGINE SHUTOFF SYSTEM

CAUTION

To lower the boom and, if necessary, to move
a disabled ReachStacker, the Start Engine
switch can override the engine shutoff system.
Override the engine shutoff system by going
through the Starting Procedures, but do not
release the START Engine Switch when the
engine is running.

The engine will shut off automatically when the
coolant temperature is approximately 105 C (221 F)
or when the engine oil pressure is below 0.25 bar
(3.6 psi).

HOW TO MOVE DISABLED
REACHSTACKER

WARNING

Manual release of the parking brake caliper
will result in loss of brakes.

The service brake system requires hydraulic pres-
sure to operate. The park brake will automatically
apply when hydraulic pressure drops. If there is no
hydraulic pressure to release the parking brake, the
parking brake caliper must be manually released.
Put blocks on both sides (front and back) of the drive
tires to prevent movement of the ReachStacker. The
caliper is installed at the back of the differential
housing.

To manually release the parking brake,

remove the cotter pin from the bolt in the caliper.
Tighten the nut to compress the spring that applies
the brake.

How to Tow ReachStacker

WARNING

Do not tow a ReachStacker if a load is attached.

Use extra caution when moving a Reach-
Stacker if any of the following conditions
exist:
• Brakes do not operate correctly.
• Steering does not operate correctly.
• Tires are damaged.
• Traction conditions are bad.

If the engine cannot run, there is no power
assist available for the steering and service
brakes.

This can make the control of the

ReachStacker difficult.

Poor traction can

cause the disabled ReachStacker or towing
vehicle to slide.

Manual release of the parking brake caliper
will result in loss of brakes.

1.

The towed ReachStacker must have an operator.

2.

Tow the ReachStacker slowly.

3.

Tow the ReachStacker from the lifting points of
the counterweight attached to the frame.

4.

If another ReachStacker is used to tow the dis-
abled ReachStacker, that ReachStacker must
have an equal or larger capacity than the dis-
abled ReachStacker.

HOW TO PUT REACHSTACKER ON
BLOCKS

How to Raise Drive Tires

WARNING

The ReachStacker must be put on blocks for
some types of maintenance and repair. The sur-
face must be solid, even, and level when the
ReachStacker is put on blocks. Make sure that
any blocks used to support the ReachStacker
are solid, one-piece units. Do not use compo-
nent lifting points on the boom or frame to lift
the ReachStacker.

1.

Apply the parking brake.

Put blocks on both

sides (front and back) of the steering tires to pre-
vent movement of the ReachStacker. See Fig-
ure 1.

2.

Fully lower and retract the boom.

3.

Use a hydraulic jack under the side of the frame
near the front. Check that the jack has a capacity
of at least 41,000 kg (90,390 lb), equal to at least
half the weight of the ReachStacker. See the Ca-
pacity Plate.

4.

Put additional blocks under the frame behind the
drive tires. Be sure the blocks are under the
frame channels and not the tanks or compart-
ments.

HOW TO MAKE CHECKS WITH ENGINE
STOPPED

WARNING

Do not operate a ReachStacker that needs re-
pairs. Report the need for repairs immediately.
If repair is necessary, put a DO NOT OPER-
ATE tag in the operator’s area. Remove the key
from the key switch.

Put ReachStacker on a level surface. Fully lower and
retract boom, stop engine, and apply parking brake.
Do all the checks outside of the engine compartment
first. Open hood and check for leaks and conditions
that are not normal. Clean any oil or fuel spills.
Make sure dirt and other materials are removed from
engine compartment.

Tires and Wheels

WARNING

Air pressure in tires can cause tire and wheel
parts to explode. The explosion of wheel parts
can cause serious injury or death.

Remove all of the air from the tires before the
tires are removed from the ReachStacker.

If the air pressure is less than 80% of the cor-
rect air pressure, the tire must be removed be-
fore air is added. Put the tire in a safety cage
when adding air pressure to the tire. Follow
the procedures described in Add Air to Tires.

When air is added to the tires, use a remote air
chuck. The person adding air must stand away
and to the side and not in front of the tire.

Keep tires at correct air pressure. See Figure 3. See
Capacity Plate.

Check air pressure with a gauge

when tires are cold. If it is necessary to add air to
a tire that is warm, check one of the other tires on
the same axle and add air to the tire that has low
pressure so that the air pressures are equal. The air
pressure of the warm tires must always be equal to
or greater than the specification for air pressure for
cold tires.

Check tires for damage. Inspect tread and remove
any objects that will cause damage. Check for bent
or damaged rims. Check for loose or missing parts.

Remove any wire, straps, or other material wrapped
around the axle.

CAUTION

Check all wheel nuts after 2 to 5 hours of
operation, when new ReachStackers begin
operation, and on all ReachStackers when
the wheels have been removed and installed.
Tighten nuts in a cross pattern to the correct
torque value shown in the Maintenance S
ched-
ule. When the nuts stay tight for eight hours,
the interval for checking the torque can be
extended to 250 hours.

Make sure wheel nuts are tight. Tighten wheel nuts
in a cross pattern to the correct torque value shown
in the Maintenance Schedule.

Safety Labels

WARNING

Safety labels are installed on the ReachStacker
to give information about operation and possi-
ble hazards. It is important that all safety la-
bels are installed on the ReachStacker and can
be read.

Check that all safety labels are installed in the cor-
rect locations on the ReachStacker. See the Parts
Manual
or the Frame section of the Service Man-
ual
for the correct locations of the safety labels.

If new labels must be installed, use the following pro-
cedures:

Maintenance Procedures Every 8 Hours or Daily

WARNING

Cleaning solvents can be flammable and toxic
and can cause skin irritation.

When using

cleaning solvents, always follow the recom-
mendations of the manufacturer.

1.

Make sure the surface is dry and has no oil or
grease. Do not use solvent on new paint. Clean
surface of old paint with a cleaning solvent.

2.

Remove paper from back of label. Do not touch
adhesive surface.

3.

Carefully hold label in correct position above
the surface. The label cannot be moved after it
touches the surface. Put label on surface. Make
sure all air is removed from under the label and
the corners and edges are tight.

Fuel, Oil, or Coolant Leaks Check

WARNING

All fuels are very flammable and can burn or
cause an explosion. Do not use an open flame
to check the fuel level or to check for leaks in
the fuel system. If there is a leak in the fuel sys-
tem, extra care must be used during the repair.
Do not operate the ReachStacker until a leak is
repaired.

Make a visual check for leaks on and under the
ReachStacker. If possible, find and repair leak at
source. Leaks can indicate a need for repair of dam-
aged or worn components.

Check fuel system for leaks and the condition of
parts. When fuel is added to the ReachStacker, see
the section, How to Add Fuel to ReachStacker
procedures in the Operating Manual.

Also check condition of radiator or heater hoses. Re-
place soft or cracked hoses.

Drive Belts

Make sure key is in OFF position and engine is
stopped. Check drive belt for wear and damage. See
Figure 4. Small cracks that run across the belt are
acceptable. A drive belt with cracks that run the
length of the belt or a belt with missing pieces is not
acceptable.

Check drive belt for correct tension.

1.

ACCEPTABLE CRACKS

2.

NOT ACCEPTABLE CRACKS AND DAMAGE

Figure 4. Drive Belt

Battery

A check of the battery electrolyte level is normally
required only every 250 hours of operation. Heavy
duty or high temperature operations will require
more frequent checks. It is not necessary to check
the electrolyte level on a maintenance-free battery.
A low electrolyte level can cause the discharge in-
dicator light to come on or cause battery damage
during ReachStacker operation.

WARNING

The acid in the electrolyte can cause injury.
If the electrolyte is spilled, use water to flush
the area. Use a solution of sodium bicarbon-
ate (soda) to make the acid neutral. Acid in the
eyes must be flushed with water immediately.
Wear eye protection.

Batteries generate explosive fumes. Keep the
vents in the caps clean. Keep sparks or open
flame away from the battery area.

Do not

make sparks from the battery connections.
Disconnect the battery ground cable when
doing maintenance.

CAUTION

Disposal of batteries must meet local environ-
mental regulations.

Keep battery and cable terminals clean. Check elec-
trolyte level (unless maintenance-free battery). Keep
electrolyte level above the separators and plates. Use
distilled water. Do not fill battery more than to the
bottom of the internal filler neck.

HOW TO STORE REACHSTACKER

These storage procedures are for conditions and tem-
peratures above 0 C (32 F). Adjust these procedures
for local conditions and any changes in conditions
during storage. The following conditions also affect
storage preparations:
Short-term storage is from 1 to 6 months. Long-

term storage is over 6 months.

Storage Location. A ReachStacker stored indoors

will not require as much external protection as a
ReachStacker stored outdoors.

Short-Term Storage

Do the following steps to prepare the ReachStacker
for storage from 1 to 6 months:

1.

Check lubricant and fluid levels. Completely fill
fuel tank. Make sure coolant mixture will protect
cooling system and engine to lowest temperature
expected during storage. Make sure all caps and
dipsticks are installed correctly.

2.

Fully lower and retract boom. Apply a thin coat
of engine oil to cylinder rods.

3.

Check that all switches and accessories are in the
OFF position.

4.

If the ReachStacker must be left on an incline,
put blocks on the down hill side of the wheels so
the ReachStacker cannot move - do not use the
parking brake.

5.

Disconnect battery cables from batteries. Apply
a protective coat to the cable connectors and bat-
tery terminals to prevent corrosion.

6.

Check tire pressure. Make sure tires have the
correct pressure (see the capacity plate).

7.

Clean engine compartment to prevent corrosion.

8.

If the ReachStacker is not stored in a shelter, put
a cover over the ReachStacker to prevent damage
from the weather. In wet conditions, a cover will
not prevent corrosion to a ReachStacker that is in
long-term storage outside of a dry storage area.

Long-Term Storage

Do the following steps to prepare the ReachStacker
for storage for 6 months or longer:

1.

Complete all short-term storage procedures.

2.

Wrap or cover all exterior lights, radiator grill,
and air vents with a moisture barrier cover. Use
tape to hold the covers in position.

3.

Remove batteries from ReachStacker. Store bat-
teries in an approved space. Be sure to follow
local regulations. Batteries that are stored for
long periods can become damaged. A recommen-
dation is that the batteries be used in service if
possible.

4.

Spray preservative coating on external surfaces
and frame.

HOW TO MOVE A REACHSTACKER ON A
TRANSPORT

WARNING

Stay a safe distance from the edge of docks,
ramps, platforms, and other similar working
surfaces.

Watch the "tail swing." Remember

when traveling in the forward direction and
the steering wheel is turned to move the
ReachStacker away from the edge of the dock,
the rear will swing toward the edge. This can
cause the ReachStacker to fall off the dock.

WARNING

IF THE REACHSTACKER FALLS OFF THE
DOCK, DO NOT JUMP OFF! HOLD FIRMLY
TO STEERING WHEEL, BRACE YOUR FEET,
AND LEAN FORWARD AND AWAY FROM THE
POINT OF IMPACT.

Before transporting the ReachStacker, check the se-
lected route to make sure there is enough clearance
for it, as loaded on the transport vehicle. Bridges,
overpasses, power lines, and natural barriers can
prevent clearance.

Removal of the boom and/or

spreader may be necessary.

23

Wheels and Tires

8000 SRM 592

If a trailer is the method of transportation, use blocks
in front and back of the trailer tires to prevent move-
ment of the trailer when the ReachStacker is loaded
and unloaded. If a loading ramp is used, make sure
that the ramp is the correct design and capacity.

Lift the ReachStacker only at the designated lifting
points.

Loading

If the boom and/or spreader must be removed for
transport of the ReachStacker, see the Service Man-
ual
for removal procedures.

The operator must never leave a ReachStacker in
a condition so that it can cause damage and injury.
When a ReachStacker is loaded on a transport, do
these operations:

1.

Apply parking brake.

2.

Fully lower and retract boom.

3.

Put direction control lever for transmission in
NEUTRAL.

4.

Turn key switch OFF to stop engine. Check that
all switches and accessories are turned OFF.
