The hydraulic system section details the hydraulic component layout, dump body control, hydraulic tank, steering and hoist pump, hoist valve, steering pump selector solenoid valve, dump EPC valve, center brake cooling remote motor, front brake cooling relief valve, and center brake cooling relief valve. Cab and electrical sections cover the ROPS cab, cab tilt, electrical control system, machine monitor system, rear view monitor system, KOMTRAX system, system component parts, and sensors.

20 Standard Value Tables

This chapter provides the standard service value tables for both engine and machine. The engine standard value table covers speeds, boost pressure, exhaust temperature, exhaust gas colour, valve clearance, compression pressure, blowby pressure, oil pressure, EGR valve and bypass valve driving oil pressure, oil temperature, fuel pressure, and fuel return rate. The machine standard value table covers engine speeds at torque converter lockup, transmission upshift and downshift, travel speeds, tire inflation pressure, brake pedal effort and travel, retarder lever operation, accumulator gas pressure, charge valve cut-in and cut-out pressures, wheel brake operating pressure, braking performance, steering wheel operating effort and play, suspension cylinder installed lengths and pressures, dump lever effort, dump body raise and lower times, hydraulic drift, main relief pressure, pilot relief pressure, and radiator and aftercooler fan speeds.

30 Testing and Adjusting

This section describes the tools required for testing and adjusting, with sketches and part numbers, and then walks through every test and adjustment procedure for the HM400-3M0. Engine and cooling system procedures include testing engine speed, boost pressure, exhaust gas temperature, exhaust gas colour, adjusting valve clearance, testing compression pressure, blowby pressure, engine oil pressure, EGR valve and bypass valve drive pressure, fuel pressure, fuel return rate and leakage, bleeding air from the fuel system, testing the fuel circuit for leakage, testing radiator and aftercooler fan speeds, and adjusting alternator and air conditioner compressor belt tension. Power train procedures cover testing torque converter stall speed, testing power train oil pressure, adjusting transmission speed sensors, adjusting the transmission controller, and retrieving a disabled machine. Steering, brake, hydraulic, work equipment, cab, and electrical system procedures are included, with a large special functions section for the machine monitor.

40 Troubleshooting

The troubleshooting chapter is one of the most detailed in the manual. It begins with troubleshooting points, sequence of events, checks before troubleshooting, inspection procedure, preparation for electrical system troubleshooting, classification and procedures, symptom and troubleshooting numbers, information in troubleshooting tables, and a connector list and layout with contact identification, T-branch box and adapter tables, fuse location table, and precautions for machine monitor troubleshooting. The failure codes table lists every diagnostic code the machine can display, followed by troubleshooting by failure code for each code. An E-mode section covers electrical system troubleshooting with symptom-based procedures. An H-mode section covers hydraulic and mechanical system troubleshooting with a system chart, failure mode and cause table, and symptom-based procedures. An S-mode section covers engine troubleshooting with symptom-based procedures for starting, running, and performance issues.

50 Disassembly and Assembly

This chapter provides the removal, installation, disassembly, and assembly procedures for every major component and assembly on the HM400-3M0.
