TECHNICAL DATA
FUEL SYSTEM – DIESEL
• The diesel fuel tank is integral to the
truck frame.
• Easy-servicing diesel fuel system includes
clean-out access and a full-fl ow fuel fi lter
with water separator.
COOLING SYSTEM
The high-capacity aluminum radiator is de-
signed with an effi cient thermal transfer fi n
and integral oil cooler for the transmission
torque converter.
• System design allows easy access to the
reservoir for checking the coolant level.
• High-volume cooling fan uses fl exible
plastic blades and shroud for maximum air
volume and noise reduction.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Standard instrument package and operator
conveniences:
12-volt electrical system
50A alternator with built-in IC regulator
Key-lock, anti-restart ignition switch
High-torque, low-amp starter motor with
planetary gear reduction
Waterproof electrical connectors
Electric fuel gauge, water temperature
gauge, LCD hour meter
Indicator lights for Neutral/Return to
Neutral, Low Oil Pressure, Low Battery/
Alternator Output, Check Engine Warning,
Hydraulic Lock (Operator Presence), and
ECCS Status Code
ECCS Service Support Tool connector for
rapid system diagnostics
Sedimenter warning lamp and glow
indicator (Diesel Models Only)
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The Hydraulic System features a tandem
pump assembly with separate pumps for
load handling and steering. This enables
faster lifting at engine idle speed for greater
fuel economy and performance levels.
• Large hydraulic fl uid reservoir integral to
the truck frame reduces heat buildup in
the system.
• Load sensing valve in the hydraulic circuit
reduces the fl ow of oil to the power steering
system when steering wheel is idle.
• Hydraulic System is fully fi ltered and
features a powerful and effi cient direct
drive gear pump.
FRAME
An all-welded assembly with heavy-gauge
steel and integral hydraulic and fuel tanks
provide exceptional durability.
• Welded front cross-member and bolted
drive axle increase frame rigidity.
• Loads are transferred directly from the
mast to the drive axle and onto the fl oor
without being transmitted through the
frame, reducing frame stress.
• Wide, open step area, with non-slip
surface facilitates easy operator entry
and exit.
DRIVE AXLE
A heavy-duty, cast steel drive axle housing
supports the load and chassis without
placing a load on the free-fl oating axle
shafts. A fl ange is mounted to the truck
frame to improve load distribution and
reduce frame fl exing.
TRANSMISSION
Komatsu single-speed, powershift trans-
mission is specifi cally designed for industrial
applications.
• Column-mounted electrical shift lever
gives the operator easy directional
control without removing a hand from
the steering wheel.
• Optimized stall ratio for torque converter
provides high torque without sacrifi cing
travel speed.
• A modulating control valve absorbs initial
pressure spikes during initial engagement
and directional change. This improves
shifting capabilities and prolongs the life
of the entire drive train.
• Transmission oil is double-fi ltered by a 125-
micron mesh on pickup, and a 35-micron
cartridge on the return line.
• Transmission oil cooler is integral with
the radiator.
• Inching control and auxiliary brake pedal
combination allows the operator precise
truck positioning with positive control.
BRAKES
Hydraulic brakes are self-energizing and
self-adjusting.
• Brake fl uid reservoir is located under the
console cover for fast, easy inspection
and maintenance.
• Heavy-duty brake backing plate and thick
brake drum provide reliable braking action
and reduced heat.
• Mechanical parking brake has two-
stage latching mechanism for positive
engagement.
• Power assist is available on selected models.
STEER AXLE
Fully Hydrostatic Power Steering is standard.
• Independent power steering pump sepa-
rates steering function from main hydraulics
for smoother, more reliable action.
Heavy-duty fabricated steer axle has
double-acting, double-ended power
steering cylinder and no drag links or
tie rods.
• Steering stops are machined into the
steering cylinder to reduce stress impact
on steering linkages.
• Grease fi ttings on all linkages are acces-
sible without lifting the truck.
MAST, CARRIAGE, LBR AND FORKS
High-visibility mast assembly has a 6-roller
carriage that is available in two-, three-, and
four-stage Free Lift, Free View designs.
• Sealed bearings require no maintenance.
• Angle-mounted bearings and a shaped
rail fl ange prevent excessive wear and
friction, while maintaining correct side
thrust clearance.
• ITA Class II or Class III carriages accept a
variety of fork sizes and common load-
handling attachments.
• 48-inch-high load backrest is standard
for increased load control and operator
protection.
• Single or double auxiliary hydraulic-
function internal hose routing is available.
