 Smoking with A/C running will harm your eyes
by smoke. Therefore, shift the “internal/external
recirculation mode” to “external recirculation
mode” to ease the removal of smoke under
continuous A/C mode.

Temperature control
 Under the A/C mode, set up the temperature in
such level that you can feel slightly cool at the
entry into the cab (lower by 5~6ºC (9~10.8ºF)
than the outside temperature). This temperature
difference is considered most appropriate to your
health. Therefore, ensure to notice the correct
adjustment of temperature.

Requirements for non-use of A/C


 To lubricate all compressor parts and operate the
A/C and dehumidification, warm up at low idling
speed for 3~5min once a month. In addition,
check the volume of refrigerant gas twice a year.

Remarks
 The A/C probably can’t work if the cab interior
temperature is low. In such case, warm up the cab
by circulating air and then rotate the A/C switch
to ON. The A/C will work.

5-8 Operation and Maintenance Manual


Maintenances SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck

5.2 Maintenances
5.2.1 Maintenance Overview
● For replacement parts, lubricating grease, and
oil, ensure to use genuine parts of Sany.
● While replacing oil or adding oil, do not mix
with oil of different type. To replace with oil of
different type, ensure to fully drain the used oil,
completely add new oil, and replace the oil filter.
(The mixing of some residual oil contained in
the pipeline will not cause any influence).
5.2.2 Handling of Oil, Fuel, and Coolant
and Analysis of Oil Quality
5.2.2.1 Oils
● The oils contained in the engine and hydraulic
device continuously deteriorate during use under
severe working conditions (high temperature and
high pressure).
● Ensure to use the oils conforming to the
recommended grade of Operation and
Maintenance Manual and compatible with
minimum and maximum environment
temperatures.
● Replace the oils as per specified replacement
interval, even if the oils are not dirty.
● The lubricating oils are similar to the blood in
human body. Handle the oils with caution to
prevent the ingress of impurities (Such as water,
metal particles, and dusts).
● Most malfunctions of the machine are caused by
the ingress of impurities.
● Pay special attention to guard against the ingress
of impurities during storage and adding of oil.
● Add oil to the specified volume, otherwise it will
result in abnormality.
● Do not mix the oils of different grades or
trademarks.
● If the oil in the working device is dirty, contains

system is prohibited to return to the oil tank without
filtration.
Please fill the hydraulic oil strictly as per the
specification. Otherwise, all consequences arising
from the use of disqualified hydraulic oil or the
failure for timely replacement of hydraulic oil will be
solely borne by the user. The use of Caltex, Mobil, or
Shell hydraulic oil is recommended. To use
lubricating oil of other brand, please consult with
Sany.
To judge the contamination level of hydraulic oil, the
common judgment method is to compare the oil to be
judged with clean new oil and observe for color
difference and presence of turbidness, dust, and
sediment. The simple evaluation method for the field
use is described below.

SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck Maintenances

5.2.2.3 Fuel
● To prevent the formation of water content in the
fuel tank due to condensation of moisture in the
air, ensure to fully fill the fuel tank after the
daily operation.
● The fuel injection pump is a high precision part.
If the fuel in use contains water or dirt, the fuel
injection pump can’t work normally.
● Before starting the engine or 10min after
refueling, drain the sediment and water from the
fuel tank.
● Upon detection of any impurity in fuel tank,
flush the fuel tank and fuel system.
● If the engine fuel is used up or the filter element
is replaced, ensure to bleed the air fuel from the
fuel pipeline.
● Ensure to use the fuel specified by Operation and
Maintenance Manual.
● The fuel will freeze when being used below the
specified temperature (Especially under the
temperature of below -15ºC (5ºF)).
● When the fuel is used above specified
temperature, the fuel viscosity will drop to result
in reduced output power.
● Take special caution to prevent ingress of
impurities during storage or filling of fuel.
5.2.2.4 Coolant in cooling system
● The coolant plays the significant anti-corrosion
and anti-freezing functions.
● The use of antifreeze is really necessary, even in
the regions requiring no anti-freezing measure.
● Sany machines are filled with L-35 antifreeze.
The L-35 antifreeze features excellent
anti-corrosion, anti-freezing, and cooling
characteristics.
● As a basic principle, the use of any coolant other
than L-35 antifreeze is not recommended. The
use of other coolant will probably result in
serious problems (such as corrosion) of engine
and cooling system parts with use of light metals
(such as aluminum).
● While thinning the antifreeze, use distilled water
or running water (soft water).
● The natural water, such as river and well water

5-12 Operation and Maintenance Manual


Maintenances SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck
(hard water), contain a large amount of mineral
substances (such as calcium and magnesium),
which will easily result in scaling in engine and
radiator. Once formed, the scale within engine or
radiator is difficult to remove. In addition, the
poor heat exchange will also result in
overheating. To thin the coolant, the use of water
with total harness below 10PPM is
recommended.
● While using the antifreeze, ensure to abide by
the precautions specified in this manual.
● The pure antifreeze is an inflammable substance.
Keep it away from open fire.
● If the engine is overheated, wait for the engine to
cool down before adding coolant.
● The under-low coolant level will result in
overheating. In addition, the air content in the
coolant can result in corrosion problem.

5.2.2.5 Lubricating grease


● The lubricating grease is functioned to prevent
distortion and noise at connections.
● The lubricating grease plays a role to lubricate
the sliding surfaces and prevent the ingress of
powders and water.
● If any part becomes inflexible or generates noise
after long-time use, add the lubricating grease.
● Ensure to use recommended lubricating grease
and select lubricating grease as per the
replacement periods and environmental
environments recommended by this manual.
● While filling grease, remove the used lubricating
grease being squeezed out.
● Ensure to remove the used lubricating grease
contaminated by sand and dirt, otherwise it will
result in wear of rotating parts.

SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck Maintenances

5.2.2.6 Storage of engine oil and fuel


● Store indoors to guard against the ingress of
water, dusts, and other impurities.
● For long-time storage of oil drums, place the oil
drums with side down and place the oil filler
port of drums on the side (to prevent ingress of
moisture).
● If it’s necessary to store oil drums outdoors,
cover the oil drums by waterproof cloth or take
other protective measures.
● To prevent oil deterioration due to long-term
storage, ensure to follow the principle of first-in
and first-out (The lubricating oil or fuel with
longest storage time shall be used firstly).

5.2.2.7 Filter elements


● The filter elements are important safety parts to
prevent the ingress of impurities of oil pipeline
and air pipeline into important devices from
causing malfunctions.
● Periodically replace all filter elements. Refer to
related section of this manual for details.
● During operations under severe conditions,
replace the filter elements within shorter periods
based on the sulfur contents of lubricating oils
and fuel.
● Do not use any cleaned filter element (for filter
element type filters). Replace with new ones.
● While replacing filter elements, check for
presence of metal particles adhered on the used
filter element. Upon detection of metal particles,
please contact Sany or its authorized dealer.
● Unpack the spare filter element only
immediately before use.
● Use genuine filter elements of Sany.

5.6 Technical Specification of

Tightening Torques
The bolted connection is a really important and
extensively applied mechanical connection. The
tightening is required for most threaded connections
during assembling, in order to enhance the connection
stiffness, compactness, and locking capacity. The
threaded connection is significantly important for main
locations and must be tightened to the specified torque.
This is because that these threaded fasteners probably
influence the reliability, working performance, and
safety of the related parts or even the entire system. If
any loose fastener is detected or the replacement of
fastener is required due to damage during use, ensure to
tighten to the specified torque.
For the fasteners, such as bolts, nuts, and studs, used on
this machine, the table below is established to prevent
the overload damage due to excessive force application
during assembling and to specify a unified standard for
safe tightening of these fasteners.

Precautions:
1. It’s prohibited to use any inappropriate
screwdriver or wrench to tighten any bolt or nut.
While tightening the nuts of bolt subassemblies,
tighten uniformly by steps (generally 2~3 steps) as
per specified sequence based on the shapes of
connected parts and the distribution of bolts or
nuts, in order to ensure uniform tightening torque
for all screws and bolts. While tightening the
rectangularly distributed bolt subassemblies,
tighten from the center gradually two sides in
symmetric manner. While tightening circularly or
squarely distributed bolt or nut subassemblies,
ensure to tighten symmetrically. If the locating
pins are provided, start the tightening from the
ones near locating pins.
2. If the lock safety wires are used for the heads of
bolts, insert and secure the wires along the rotation
direction of thread. For double nuts without lock
sealant, firstly install the thin nut and tighten to
approximately 80% tightening torque and then
tighten the thick nut to 100% torque.
3. If the replacement fastener is required, the model
shall be same with that of original one or the one
with equivalent performance shall be used. It’s
disallowed to use any replacement fastener with
inferior quality or different design, in order to
prevent causing unnecessary losses, such as
machine damage or personal injuries.
Self-locking fasteners
When a self-locking fastener is disassembled and
reinstalled to original fitting part, it can generate a
measurable engagement action or torque to provide the
re-locking performance. However, the locking function
of a self-locking nut deteriorates to certain degree
following every use. To guarantee the reliability of
self-locking fasteners, it’s specified that the self-locking
fasteners used on this vehicle can only be used for up to
5 times as per the technical requirements. Ensure to add
a marking to the head of self-locking fastener once
being disassembled, in order to ensure that the
assembling operators can understand the number of
uses for this self-locking fastener. Once a fastener has

Operation and Maintenance Manual 5-27


SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck Maintenances

been used for 5 times, ensure to replace with new one.


The table below lists the minimum torque required for
disassembling after the first use of self-locking
fasteners. The self-locking fasteners that can be
loosened by a torque less than the minimum torque
listed in the table are prohibited for reuse, no matter
they are used for 5 times or not.

hole on brake shoe, which shall be re-punched
after repair in case it is deformed by abrasion.
2. The brake friction plates on the same vehicle
shall be made by the same manufacturer, or at
least the friction plates of two wheels on the
same axle shall be made by the same
manufacturer, in order to guarantee the same
friction coefficient and good braking efficiency
to prevent failures of braking deviation.
3. The friction plate and the shoe shall be fitted
during riveting to prevent breakage in operation
and ensure good heat dissipation. The curvature
of brake friction plate shall be the same as that of
the shoe. Use hand vise to firmly fix the friction
plate with shoe, and rivet from middle to sides in
sequence.
4. After the completion of riveting, chamfer both
sides of the brake friction plate without any
deviation and loosening. The clearance between
brake friction plate and the shoe shall be
0.12mm.
5. The surface of brake friction plate shall be kept
clean, flat and not rough, as the rough bulge part
may be worn as powder lubricant to lower the
braking efficiency.
6. After the brake friction plate is riveted, the
fitness inspection shall be conducted to adapt the
motion characteristics of brake shoe and ensure

Operation and Maintenance Manual 5-57


SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck Maintenances

that the brake friction plate and brake drum have


a large contact area during braking operation.
Attention:
Fitness inspection: Apply white powder on the inner
surface of brake drum (or use chalk to paint), put the
brake shoe with new riveted friction plate onto the
operating surface of brake drum and rotate back and
forth, then remove the brake shoe, observe the
working track of the plate, which shall be heavy on
both ends, light in the middle, and the contact mark
shall be no less than 50% of the friction plate. It is to
adapt the motion characteristics of brake shoe and
ensure that the brake friction plate and brake drum
have a large contact area during braking operation for
high braking efficiency.
7. Use cooper rivet for brake friction plate, of
which the standard dimension is Ф10×22mm.
Do not use aluminum rivet as it has low
intensity, easy to cut off. Cooper rivets shall be
annealed before riveting.
Attention: Please refer to the maintenance manual of

The inner diameter of brake drum may be increased
due to abrasion, and the non-concentricity with wheel
hub may be caused by out-of-round and conical
degree. In case the conical degree of brake drum inner
surface is excessive high, it will reduce the contact
area of friction plate and brake drum and lower the
braking efficiency. In case the brake drum is
out-of-round and the hub is not concentrated, the
contact of brake shoe and drum will be unstable and
vibrated during braking and lower the braking
efficiency.

● Opening the expansion water tank cap before the
cooling of engine will result in spray-out of hot
coolant to cause scalding. Therefore, ensure to
wait for the engine to cool down before starting
checking.
● Ensure to take special cautions not to touch any
hot part or grasp any rotating part.
● Before disassembling any internal plug or cap
for oil pressure, water pressure or air pressure
mechanism, ensure to relieve the internal
pressure. Ensure the correct connections while

Operation and Maintenance Manual 6-5


SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck Malfunction Diagnosis

to preliminarily determine the possible cause of the


malfunction.
1. During the malfunction diagnosis, do not haste
to disassembly parts. The immediately
disassembling of parts will probably result in
that the disassembled parts are not related to the
malfunction or the unnecessary parts are
disassembled, which will probably damage the
parts. Therefore, during the malfunction
diagnosis, ensure to check in advance and
perform the malfunction diagnosis as per
specified procedure.
2. The repair personnel shall inquire the operation
personnel of the following issues:
1) Is there any other problem?
2) Is there any abnormality of machine prior to
occurrence of malfunction?
3) Is the malfunction occurred suddenly or does the
machine already have problem prior to the
occurrence of malfunction?
4) Under which condition this malfunction occurs?
5) Is any repair work taken prior to occurrence of
malfunction? When is the repair work taken?
6) Is there any similar malfunction in the past?
3. Other checking items:
1) Check hydraulic oil level.
2) Check hydraulic system for oil leakage.
3) Check the control handles for correct motions.
4) Check for normal lubrication of vehicle.
5) Other daily maintenance items that can be
fulfilled from the exterior of machine.
4. Determination of malfunction
Narrow the malfunction cause scope as per
above-mentioned checking procedure and test
results and then determine the malfunction
location as per 6.5.1 Malfunction Diagnosis
Table of this chapter.
Tip: While operating the machine to reproduce
the malfunction in the field, do not take any
checking or measurement action that will make
the problem worse.
5. Troubleshooting
Even after the malfunction is solved, if the
malfunction cause is not solved, the same

Malfunction Diagnosis SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck

malfunction will still occur. Therefore, ensure to


find out and solve the malfunction cause. After
the troubleshooting, the malfunction cause and
the measure to prevent similar malfunctions shall
be introduced to the operation personnel.

Operation and Maintenance Manual 6-9


SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck Malfunction Diagnosis

6.1.4 Precautions for Malfunction


Diagnosis of Electric Circuits
1. Ensure to turn off power supply before
disconnecting or connecting any connector.
2. Before malfunction diagnosis, check and ensure
all related connectors are correctly inserted.
● Disconnect and connect the related connectors
for several times to check.
3. Ensure to connect all disconnected connectors
before the next operation.
● If the power supply is turned on with connectors
disconnected, it will bring about unnecessary
abnormal indications.
4. During the malfunction diagnosis of electric
circuits (measurement of voltage, resistance,
continuity, or current), move the related electric
wires and connectors for several times and check
the instruments for reading variation.
● Upon detection of reading variation, there is
probably a contact malfunction in electric
circuits.
6.1.5 Precautions for Handling of
Hydraulic Parts
Due to increasing of pressure and increased precision
of hydraulic parts, the most common malfunction
cause is the blockage of hydraulic oil pipeline by oil
sludge. Ensure to take special cautions while filling
hydraulic oil and breaking down or assembling
hydraulic parts.
1. Operation environment
Avoid filling hydraulic oil, replacing filter, or
repairing machine in the rain or in windy or
dusty place.
2. Breakdown and maintenance operations in
working site
There is a danger of dust ingress into parts
during the breakdown and maintenance
operations of hydraulic parts in the working site. Figure 6-1
It's difficult to check the performance after
repairs. Therefore, it’s better to replace the
assemblies. The breakdown and maintenance of
hydraulic parts shall be performed in a special

6-10 Operation and Maintenance Manual


Malfunction Diagnosis SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck

dustproof workshop and the performance shall


be checked by special testers.
3. Filling of hydraulic oil
While filling the hydraulic oil, guard against the
ingress of oil sludge and dusts. Ensure to keep
clean the filter element and its surrounding area
and use clean pump and oil container. The use of
oil cleaning machine can probably filter out the
oil sludge accumulated during storage.
Therefore, it’s a more effective method. Figure 6-2
4. Replacement of hydraulic oil under high
temperature
The hydraulic oil or other oil can flow easily
under warm status. In addition, the sediments Flushing oil
can be drained easily along with oil from the oil
pipeline. Therefore, it’s better to replace oil
under warm status. During the replacement of
oil, drain the used hydraulic oil as complete as
possible. (Drain the oil from the hydraulic oil
tank and drain the oil from the filter and oil
pipeline drainage plug.) If any used oil is not
drained, the impurities and sediments contained Figure 6-3
therein will mix with new oil to shorten the life
of hydraulic oil.
5. Flushing operations
During the breakdown and assembling of
machine or replacement of oil, use flushing oil to
remove impurities and sediments and the used
oil from hydraulic oil pipeline. Generally, flush
the system by two steps, namely use flushing oil
for main flushing and use specified hydraulic oil
for secondary flushing.
6. Cleaning operations
It’s necessary to remove the sediments and
impurities from hydraulic oil pipeline after the
repair of hydraulic parts (Such as pumps and
control valves) or during the running of
machine. An oil cleaning machine can remove
the tiny particles and can be used to effectively
clean the oil pipeline without disassembling the
built-in filter in hydraulic parts.

6.3.3 Battery
6.3.3.1

Warning
It’s dangerous to charge the battery while the
battery is still installed on the machine. Ensure to
disassemble the battery before charging.
While checking or handling the battery, stop the
engine and rotate the key switch to OFF position.
While handling the battery, ensure to wear
goggles and rubber gloves. While disassembling
the battery, firstly disconnect the grounding cable
(Negative (-) terminal). During installation, firstly
connect the positive (+) terminal. There is a
danger of spark generation if a tool touches the
positive terminal and chassis. Therefore, special
caution shall be paid.
A loose terminal will generate spark due to poor
contact to cause danger of explosion.
While disassembling or installing the terminals,
ensure to distinguish the positive (+) terminal
from negative (-) terminal.

Figure 6-7
6.3.3.2 Disassembling and installation of
battery
● Before disassembling the battery, disassemble
the grounding cable (Generally it's connected to
the negative (-) terminal).
● There is a danger of spark generation if there is
a contact between positive terminal and chassis
by a tool.
● While replacing the battery, fix the battery by
battery clamping plates.
● Connection sequence of battery cables:
Connect positive cable of battery before
connecting the negative cable of battery.
● Disconnection sequence of battery cables:
Disconnect the negative cable of battery before
disconnecting the positive cable of battery.

6-34 Operation and Maintenance Manual


Malfunction Diagnosis SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck

6.3.3.3 Charging of battery


While charging the battery, the improper handling
will result in the danger of battery explosion. Ensure
to abide by the instructions of battery and charger
and the following instructions:
● Adjust the voltage of the charger to be
compatible with the voltage of the battery to be
charged. The incorrect selection of voltage will
lead to overheating and explosion of charger.
● Connect the positive (+) cable clamp of charger
to the positive (+) terminal of battery and
connect the negative (-) cable clamp of charger
to the negative (-) terminal of battery. Ensure to
secure the cable clamps.
● While adjusting the charging current to the
rated battery capacity for rapid charging, adjust
the charging current to be less than the battery Figure 6-8
capacity. If the charging current is too high, the
electrolyte will be probably vaporized to result
in fire or explosion of battery.
● If the battery electrolyte is frozen, do not
charge the battery or start the engine by other
power supply. Otherwise it will ignite the
electrolyte and cause battery explosion.

6.3.4 Start of Engine by Auxiliary Cable


6.3.4.1 Connection and disconnection of
auxiliary cable

Warning
While connecting the cables, keep the positive (+)
and negative (-) terminals away from contact with
each other.
Take caution to keep normal machine and
malfunctioned machine away from contact with
each other. Prevent the generation of spark in the
vicinity of battery from igniting the hydrogen
relieved by the battery.
Take caution to eliminate errors while connecting
auxiliary cable. It will generate spark during the
final connection (with upper frame). Therefore, Figure 6-9
connect the cable to a place as far as away from
the battery. (However, prevent connecting to the
working device, as it’s not a good conductor).
While disassembling the auxiliary cable, take
special cautions to keep the cable clamps away
from contact with each other or with the chassis.
Note:
● This machine’s staring system adopts 24V
voltage. In normal operation of machine, adopt
four 12V battery (2 batteries in series
connection and then two groups in parallel
connection) for power supply.
● The specifications of the auxiliary cable and
the cable clamps shall be compatible with the
battery specification.
● The battery capacity of the normal machine
must be same with the engine to be started.
● Check the cables and cable clamps for presence
of damage or corrosion.
● Ensure the secure connections of cables and
cable clamps.
● Check and ensure that the gearshift levers of
both machines are in neutral gear and the
parking switches are at OFF position.
● Make sure that two machines’ cargo
compartments are all dropped onto the frames.

Maintenance SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck
Refer to Figure 4 for the numbers in parentheses, unless
otherwise specified.
Note: Before relieving the pressure of suspension
cylinder, ensure to unload the vehicle and park the
vehicle on a level ground.
1. Support the frame near the front suspension
cylinder by a jack or wood support of sufficient
capacity.
2. Disassemble the cap from the air inflation valve
(2, Figure 3) on the top of suspension cylinder
piston rod, rotate the hexagon nut on the air
inflation valve counter-clockwise for 1/4~1/2 turn,
and push down the valve core. If no air is vented,
rotate the nut for further 1/4 turn. Repeat this
operation till the nitrogen is vented when the valve
core is pushed down.
3. Remove the sleepers or relieve the pressures of
hydraulic jacks to apply the vehicle weight
completely onto the suspension cylinders.
4. Push down the inflation valve core to ensure that
the pressure is completely relieved. Note: Draining
the nitrogen from the suspension cylinder will
commonly carry away oil. This is caused by the oil
bubbles in the suspension cylinder, as the nitrogen
dissolved in the oil under high pressure expands
under normal pressure to generate bubbles. Ensure
to refill the oil for the oil loss in this process
during the filling of air. After completely draining
the air from the suspension cylinder, the longer the
oil stays in the normal pressure, the easier the air
bubbles in the suspension cylinder can be
eliminated during the filling of air.
Filling Instruction
WARNING!
Refer to Figure 2 for the numbers in parentheses, unless
otherwise specified. High pressure suspension cylinders. Ensure to

property losses.
Note 2: To guarantee the same inflation pressure and
same working height for two suspension cylinders,
inflate them simultaneously. In addition, while inflating
the front suspension cylinders, the extending heights of WARNING!
two rear suspension cylinders shall be same, which can
be achieved by placing the cushion blocks of same
thickness between the rear axle and frame stop block. While relieving the suspension cylinder pressure,
While installing the cushion blocks, it's necessary to ensure to push down and hold the valve core, till the
slightly elevate the frame. However, ensure to remove air is completely drained, otherwise it will result in
the cushion blocks after the completion of air inflation. personal injuries and property losses.

Note 3: Note: The air pressure varies along with the


temperature so that a tiny change of temperature around
the suspension cylinders can result in the change of

suspension cylinder working height.
Filling of Hydraulic Oil (First Filling or Refilling
after Repair)
Note: In event of oil loss of suspension cylinder due to
some causes other than surface leakage, it’s
recommended to fill oil by this method. In event of
surface leakage, disassemble and replace the
suspension. Return the suspension to the manufacturer
for repairs, otherwise the repairs without permission
will probably impair the quality warranty.
The oil level of the suspension installed on a mining
truck can be checked and adjusted as per following
procedure:
Note 1: To check the oil level correctly, ensure to
completely drain the nitrogen from the cylinder body.
This operation can be completed by vacuumizing the
air end of the suspension or supporting the frame
appropriately by skids to keep inflation valve opened
for >24 hours. This operation is required only in event
of surface leakage or excessive no-load deviation.
Note 2: This procedure must be performed after the
suspension is installed on a mining truck. If not, place
the suspension cylinder by appropriate support mode
and fixing method before operating this procedure.
1. Park the vehicle in a safe place on a level ground
and ensure to park the vehicle stably without
applying the friction brake system of mining truck.
2. Jack up the vehicle till the suspension extends 1. Oil plug (oil filler port) 2. Nitrogen inflation valve

4. Connect a vacuum pump to the inflation valve to
vacuumize the cylinder.
5. Start the vacuumizing and monitor this process till
the air is completely drained. It indicates that the
vacuumizing is completed when the oil in the
suspension turns dark.
Note: It’s prohibited to extract oil from the suspension.

connect oil filling subassembly to oil plug port.
11. Connect the oil filling pump pipeline to a clean
and high-quality Caltex heavy-duty power drive
oil 414 supply station. The required initial oil
filling volume for every suspension is
approximately 18L.
Note: In cold regions, it’s recommended to use a
synthetic fluid (Conoco/Philips synthetic R&O or
equivalent product) as substitute product, which
features the following characteristics: ISO viscosity
grade at 46; solidifying point at -70°F(-55 ℃); PAO
synthetic agent, applicable for common insulation
devices.
12. When the piston rod is extended to "A”=118mm,
fill oil into the suspension cylinders, till the oil
overflown from the inflation valve (2, Figure 3)
port is free of air bubble. Disassemble the oil
filling device and reinstall plug (1, Figure 3) and
nitrogen inflation valve (2, Figure 3) on the piston
rod.
Note: If the cylinder is not vacuumized during the
filling of oil, to bleed the air from the auxiliary oil
chamber, lift the frame by lifting sling or elevate the
frame by cushion blocks, maintain the cylinder
extension at A=118mm, disassemble the plug (1, Figure
3) and inflation valve (2, Figure 3), and fill oil through
the mounting hole of plug (1, Figure 3), till the oil

leaf spring and connecting bolts of thrust bars.
2. It's recommended to re-tighten the connecting
bolts of thrust bars once every 5,000km and the bolts of
leaf spring once every 2,000km, in order to prevent the
looseness of bolts from causing breakage of bolts or
even the damage of other suspension system parts.
Check all bolts of balance suspension system during the
first 5,000km maintenance of vehicle and afterwards
check as well once every 5,000km. Under severe road
condition, shorten the interval mileage accordingly, in
order to always maintain the vehicle under good
working status.
3. Frequently check the end cap bolts of balance
shaft for looseness.
4. Apply lubricating grease to the area around the
leaf spring and sliding plate once every
8,000~10,000km, in order to reduce the wear of sliding
plate seat. The normal wear life is half year for guide
plate and sliding plate seat. Upon detection of serious
wear, replace immediately. Note: The guide plate is of
split type. If its thickness is worn to 3mm or the motion
of leaf spring is impaired, ensure to replace.

Installation of air conditioning system


Refer to the Figure (1) for the numbers in parentheses.
1. Connect all pipelines to corresponding ports. The
hoses shall be installed without distortion, mutual
friction, or pre-stress. Ensure a certain gap
between high and low pressure pipelines. When
necessary, isolate the high and low pressure
pipelines by rubber sleeves. Place the O-rings to
the pipeline connections. Before installation, apply
some refrigerant oil.
2. Installation of compressor. While installing the
compressor, the lateral inclination shall not exceed
30° and the longitudinal inclination shall not
exceed 10°. If the inclination exceeds the specified
value, it will result in the obstructed working or
abnormal working of lubricating oil system within
compressor and thus the blockage of compressor
due to insufficient lubrication. The working
environment of the compressor shall have a large
space and well ventilation and heat dissipation,
with the environmental temperature no higher than
120℃.
3. Installation of condenser and evaporator. During
installation, place the devices to a place of low
vibration, in order to attenuate the damages of
devices. Select an installation location of
appropriate ventilation area. The over-sized or the
under-sized ventilation area will result in
obstructed air inlet, over-high high pressure, and
poor condensing performance.
4. Installation of reservoir and dryer. During the
installation, ensure that the sightglass is within the
accessible line of sight.
Environmental protection
Environmental studies have shown that the earth's
protective ozone layer in the outer stratosphere is
weakening year by year. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's),
such as R-12 refrigerant (Freon), which are widely used
in air conditioning system for mobile equipment, have
been proved as a possible cause of ozone depletion.
Therefore, the legislative bodies of more than 130
countries expressly stipulate to terminate the
production and distribution of R-12 refrigerant after
1995. Thus, most of current motorized air conditioning
systems use a more environmentally friendly
hydrofluorocarbon (HFC).
HFC refrigerant is commonly referred to as HFC-134a
or R-134a. For this purpose, it is forbidden to discharge
refrigerant into the atmosphere during the filling or
refilling process.
Air conditioning for off-highway vehicles

Operation and Maintenance Manual 8- 31


Maintenance SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck
Mining and construction vehicles are characterized by
vibration, sudden load surge, operator change and
climatic conditions, which pose different problems for
the design and installation of air conditioning system.
In general, off-highway equipment is very unique and
able to undertake a variety of different operations,
which is incomparable to ordinary motor vehicles or
road engineering vehicles.
Refrigeration principles of air conditioning system
Refrigeration-cooling

 In fact, air conditioning system cooling is a


process of removing heat, not a process of making
air.
 Heat is always transferred towards cooler
temperature. This principle is the basis for
operation of the refrigeration unit. Heat transfer
occurs as long as the temperature of one object is
lower than that of the other.
 Temperature is the intensity of heat measured in
degrees. The most commonly used measuring
device is thermometer.
 All liquids have a vaporized point. Water boiling is
the most common example of heating to form
steam. Boiling is a form of rapid evaporation.
Steam is much hotter than boiling water. Once
boiling is reached, water temperature will not rise
any more. Thermal energy is utilized during the
vaporization process. The boiling point of a liquid
is directly affected by the pressure. By changing
the pressure, we can control the boiling point and
the temperature at which the vapor condenses.
When a liquid is heated and vaporized, the gas
will absorb heat without change of the pressure.
 In turn, when heat is removed from the water
vapor, gas will return to the liquid state. The heat
in the air moves toward a colder object. Normally,
the moisture in the cooling air will condense on
the cooler objects.
 Refrigerant - R134a can only be used in new
automotive systems specially designed for the
refrigerant.
Refrigeration cycle

 In an air conditioning system, the refrigerant


circulates under pressure through five main
components in a closed circuit. At these points in
the system, the refrigerant undergoes the

8-32 Operation and Maintenance Manual


SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck Maintenance

predetermined change of pressure and


temperature.
 The compressor sucks the low-pressure
heat-carrying refrigerant gas through the suction
valve (low pressure side), compresses the
heat-carrying refrigerant and forces it to pass
through the discharge valve (high pressure side) to
go to the condenser. The ambient air passing
through the condenser carries away the heat of the
circulating refrigerant, further causing the
refrigerant to convert from gas to liquid.
 The liquid refrigerant continues to move to the
reservoir where the impurities are filtered and the
moisture is removed. This part is also used for
temporary storage of a part of liquid refrigerant.
 Then, the liquid refrigerant under high pressure
flows out of the expansion valve, which valve
meters the amount of refrigerant entering the
evaporator. As the refrigerant flows through the
valve, it becomes a low temperature, low pressure
liquid and saturated steam. This causes the
refrigerant to cool.
 The remaining low-pressure liquid immediately
begins to boil and vaporize as it approaches the
evaporator, which increases refrigeration. The hot
and humid air in the cab is extracted by the
evaporator fan through the evaporator. Since the
temperature of the refrigerant is lower than the
temperature of the air, it absorbs heat from the air
and generates cold air that is pushed back into the
cab. The moisture in the air is condensed as soon
as it enters the evaporator and then is discharged
from the cab through the drain pipe of the
evaporator.
 When the heated low-pressure gas is again sucked
and compressed through the suction side (low
pressure side) of the compressor, the cycle ends.
Air conditioning system components

Compressor
The compressor is a device that converts the low
pressure side of the system to the high pressure side. It
collects the refrigerant returning from the evaporator to
produce high pressure and temperature considerably
higher than outside air temperature. The large

Operation and Maintenance Manual 8- 33


Maintenance SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck
temperature difference between the refrigerant and the
outside air is the driving force necessary to assist in the
rapid heat flow between the hot refrigerant gas in the
condenser and the much cooler outside air.
To generate high pressure concentration, the
compressor absorbs refrigerant from the evaporator
through the low pressure side and forces it into the
condenser through the high pressure side during the
compression stroke. Under the pressure generated by
the action of the compressor, the refrigerant moves to
the expansion valve through the condenser, the
accumulator and the connecting hose.
The compressor is driven by the engine through a belt
which drives an electric clutch mounted on the
compressor drive shaft.

Condenser

The condenser receives the high pressure and high


temperature refrigerant gas from the compressor and
condenses it into a high pressure hot liquid.
The condenser is designed to allow thermal movement
from hot refrigerant gas to colder outside air. The
cooling of the refrigerant turns the gas into liquid. Heat
exchange is accomplished by the colder air flowing
through the condenser. The cooling of the condenser is
carried out by the flow of the ram air generated by the
movement of the radiator fan and the vehicle.
Therefore, the condenser is usually mounted in front of
the radiator.
The refrigerant's condensing refrigerant is changed
from gaseous state to liquid state, which is affected by
the refrigerant pressure and the flow of gas through the
condenser. The condensing pressure in an air
conditioning system is the control pressure of the
refrigerant, which affects the temperature at which it
condenses into liquid. During the process, a large
amount of heat is dissipated. The condensation point is
high enough to create a large temperature difference
between the hot refrigerant gas and the air passing
through the condenser cooling fins and tubes. The
temperature difference allows rapid heat transfer from
the refrigerant to the ambient air.

Liquid reservoir

8-34 Operation and Maintenance Manual


SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck Maintenance

The liquid reservoir is a very important part of the air


conditioning system. The dryer receives the liquid
refrigerant from the condenser and removes any
moisture and foreign matter that may enter the system.
The storage port of the reservoir is designed to store the
additional refrigerant that is not needed by the
evaporator. Such storage is temporary and depends on
the needs of the expansion valve.
Desiccant is a solid substance that removes moisture
from gases, liquids, or solids. It is held in place
between the two screens in the liquid reservoir. The two
screens also serve as filter screen.
The liquid reservoir is also equipped with an
observation window and a moisture indicator. The
observation hole gives a good indication of the system
filling. If the observation window is not clear, it shows
the system's refrigerant is low.
The moisture indicator is a device that informs the
maintenance personnel of full water in the dryer and the
necessary replacement of the dryer. The indicator is
blue when there is no moisture in the part. When the
indicator changes to light brown or dark blown, the
dryer must be replaced.

Evaporator

The evaporator cools and dehumidifies the air before it


enters the cab. The wide area of refrigeration require a
large amount of air to flow through the evaporator for
heat exchange. Therefore, the evaporator fan becomes a
key component of the evaporator assembly. It not only
draws the hot air into the evaporator, but also forces the
air through the evaporator cooling fins, where the heat
is absorbed by the refrigerant. The evaporator fan
forces the cooled air to flow out of the evaporator and
go to the cab.
Circuit
The circuit of the air conditioner is powered by an
auxiliary circuit.
The evaporator fan is controlled by a switch that
provides a fast to slow control panel. When the
evaporator fan switch is turned on, a current is present
at the compressor clutch. Once the fan is turned on, the
fan speed can be changed without influence on the
thermostat sensing level.

Operation and Maintenance Manual 8- 35


Maintenance SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck
The thermostat reacts according to the temperature that
causes the electrical contacts to open and close. The
thermostat has a capillary that extends into the
evaporator to sense temperature.
When the contacts are closed, the current flows to the
clutch magnetic field and activates the clutch to rotate
the swash plate within the compressor, thereby starting
the refrigerating cycle. When the temperature sensing
temperature in the evaporator drops to a predetermined
value, the contacts are opened, the clutch is disengaged,
and the compressor stops operation.
When the compressor stops working, the evaporator fan
is still operating at the set speed. After the temperature
in the evaporator increases to or slightly above the set
value, the contacts in the thermostat are closed, the
compressor starts to work, and the refrigeration cycle
restarts.
Air conditioning system commissioning

For this A/C system, no fresh air function is provided


and the default mode is internal recirculation mode.
Note:
1. The air conditioning system condenser needs to be
cleaned regularly to ensure that it reaches the
normal heat dissipation function;
2. The air conditioning compressor installation bolts
should be inspected every 500h to ensure no
looseness;
3. The compressor installation belt is inspected every
500h: if the belt is pressed by finger in the middle
between the drive wheel and the compressor
pulley, it is suitable to have the deformation of
5~8mm (force is about 10kg (98N));
4. The air conditioning or compressor cannot be used
for a long time (more than 3 months). It should be
turned on regularly (at least once a month) for
more than 10 minutes to prevent the air
conditioning compressor from being stuck due to
oil shortage.

Vacuuming operation

To install an air-conditioning unit, the most important


thing to note: do not mix moisture in the air
conditioning system. The refrigerant (R134a) used in
the air conditioning system is extremely soluble in
water. If there is a small amount of water remaining in
the air conditioning system, it is easy to cause the small
8-36 Operation and Maintenance Manual
SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck Maintenance

hole of the expansion valve to freeze in the air


conditioning system, and get the compressor valve rust,
etc. Before the refrigerant is injected, the moisture in
the air conditioning system should be removed as much
as possible. To achieve the lowest moisture residue in
the air conditioning system, the air conditioning system
must be vacuumed before filling.

Vacuuming process:

Vacuuming steps
☆ Connection of manifold pressure gauge (refer
to figure 2-2).
1. Turn off the high pressure valve (HI) and low
pressure valve (LO) of the manifold pressure
gauge;
2. Connect the air tube (red, blue) to the
compressor auxiliary valve;
Red hose connected to high pressure side
(mark D)
Blue hose connected to the low pressure side
(mark S)
3. Connect the gas tube (green) in middle of
manifold pressure gauge to the vacuum
pump. Figure 8-3
Note: The side of the L-bending front end of the
gas tube is mounted to the compressor auxiliary
valve. In the event of opposite connection, the
valve inside the compressor cannot be opened. In
addition, do not reverse the high voltage and low
voltage parts.

Operation and Maintenance Manual 8- 37


Maintenance SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck
☆ Vacuuming (refer to figure 2-3)
1. Open the high pressure valve (HI) and low
pressure valve (LO) of the manifold pressure
gauge;
2. Turn on the vacuum pump switch and
perform vacuuming operation (about 15
minutes);
3. When the pressure gauge negative pressure
scale (i.e. vacuum degree) reaches 750mmHg
or more, turn off the vacuum pump switch
and close the high pressure valve and low
pressure valve of manifold pressure gauge.
Figure 8-4
☆ Seal inspection
1. Place the high pressure valve and low
pressure valve of the manifold pressure gauge
for more than 5 minutes in the off status, and
confirm that there the pressure gauge reading
is the same as that before the pressure is
maintained;
2. If the pointer of the pressure gauge returns to
0 around, it indicates that leakage exits
somewhere in the air conditioning system, so
the air conditioning pipe connection needs to
be inspected and the vacuuming operation is
carried out again until no leakage exists.
Replacement of refrigerant tank
1. Close the high pressure and low pressure
valves of the manifold pressure gauge.
2. Lift the needle and disc of refrigerant tank
valve and disassemble the empty tank.
3. Install new refrigerant tank to the refrigerant
tank valve.
4. Bleed the air from the air inflation hose by
following method:
1) Tighten the refrigerant tank valve and then
loosen slightly.
2) Open the low pressure valve of manifold
pressure gauge slightly.
3) Open the air bleeding valve. Once the
refrigerant drains, immediately close the
refrigerant tank valve and low pressure valve
of manifold pressure gauge. Figure 8-5
5. Rotate the handle of the refrigerant tank
valve, open the refrigerant tank, and continue
to fill until the operation is completed.

8.5 Hydraulic System


8.5.1 Replace hydraulic oil
1. Operation environment
Avoid filling hydraulic oil, replacing filter, or
repairing machine in the rain or in windy or dusty
place.
2. Breakdown and maintenance operations in
working site
There is a danger of dust ingress into parts during the
breakdown and maintenance operations of hydraulic
parts in the working site. It's difficult to check the
performance after repairs. Therefore, it’s better to
replace the assemblies. The breakdown and
maintenance of hydraulic parts shall be performed in
a special dustproof workshop and the performance
shall be checked by special testers.

Figure 8-8
3. Filling of hydraulic oil
While filling the hydraulic oil, guard against the
ingress of oil sludge and dusts. Ensure to keep clean
the filter element and its surrounding area and use
clean pump and oil container. The use of oil cleaning
machine can probably filter out the oil sludge
accumulated during storage. Therefore, it’s a more
effective method.
Figure 8-9
4. Replacement of hydraulic oil under high
temperature
The hydraulic oil or other oil can flow easily under
warm status. In addition, the sediments can be
drained easily along with oil from the oil pipeline.
Flushing oil
Therefore, it’s better to replace oil under warm
status. During the replacement of oil, drain the used
hydraulic oil as complete as possible. (Drain the oil
from the hydraulic oil tank and drain the oil from the
filter and oil pipeline drainage plug.) If any used oil
is not drained, the impurities and sediments
contained therein will mix with new oil to shorten
the life of hydraulic oil.
5. Flushing operations
During the breakdown and assembling of machine or
replacement of oil, use flushing oil to remove Figure 8-10
impurities and sediments and the used oil from
hydraulic oil pipeline. Generally, flush the system by
two steps, namely use flushing oil for main flushing
and use specified hydraulic oil for secondary
8-50 Operation and Maintenance Manual
SKT90S Mining Wide-Body Dump Truck Maintenance

flushing.
6. Cleaning operations
It’s necessary to remove the sediments and impurities
from hydraulic oil pipeline after the repair of
hydraulic parts (Such as pumps and control valves)
or during the running of machine. An oil cleaning
machine can remove the tiny particles and can be
used to effectively clean the oil pipeline without
disassembling the built-in filter in hydraulic parts.

8.5.2 Replacement of Steering Filter


Element
The maintenances of filter element and hydraulic oil
directly influence the health of hydraulic system.
Therefore, ensure to replace strictly as per the
specified maintenance schedule.
The detailed replacement procedure is as below:
Disassemble the filter chamber (1).
Replace the seal ring (3) along with the replacement
of filter element (2).
Install the filter chamber (1).
Start the vehicle and check for oil leakage and
normal steering function.

fluid acts onto the piston as the working pressure on
one hand and also functions as control pressure to
regulate the air pressure of the booster cylinder air
chamber on the other hand. The compressed air flows
into the booster cylinder air chamber to generate air
boosting force and jointly drive the movement of
booster cylinder push rod and the rotation of release
rocker so that the release fork drives the backward
movement of release bearing to disengage the clutch.
The clutch drive cylinder, clutch fluid reservoir, and
clutch pedal assembly are arranged on the front wall
of cab. The drive cylinder is connected to the clutch
booster cylinder installed on the chassis via high

Note: During the working of transmission, the
continuous rotation of gears on the countershaft and
2nd shaft is required to supply sufficient lubricating oil
to the transmission. However, when the vehicle is being
towed with rear wheels on the ground and the drive
system connected, the above-mentioned gears are not
rotating and the 2nd shaft is driven by rear wheels for
high-speed rotation, a friction will be surly generated
between the spline shims on the 2nd shaft to seriously
damage the transmission due to very high speed
