JLG TH336 Bedienungsanleitung

February 16, 2011

ATTENTION: This notice is being issued to advise you of the requirement to update certain

Caterpillar (“CAT”) Telehandlers that were manufactured by JLG Industries,

Inc. (“JLG”). This program must be completed as soon as possible on all

affected machines.

PROBLEM:

When the fork tilt up function is continuously held and the tilt cylinder reaches end of stroke and

then the lift up function is activated while continuing to activate fork tilt up, a void in the barrel

end of the lift cylinder is created. As a result of this void, when lift up or down is initiated, the

boom will drop in an uncontrolled manner until the void is filled with hydraulic oil.

In has recently been determined that the load charts on certain CAT Model TH336, TH337,

TH406 and TH407 telehandlers do not have the correct load values. Lifting certain loads

specified on those load charts will cause the machine to tip-over.

This bulletin requires the installation of a compensating valve kit in order to eliminate the

possibility of a void being created in the lift cylinder or the replacement of the load charts or both

on all affected machines.

This issue affects certain CAT Telescopic Material Handler Models TH336, TH337, TH406 and

TH407 having the following Serial Numbers.

CAUTION: USE ALL APPLICABLE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHILE

WORKING ON, UNDER OR AROUND ANY MACHINERY.

IMPORTANT! THIS PROCEDURE MUST BE ACCOMPLISHED IN A

CONTAMINANT-FREE ENVIRONMENT. ENSURE THE AREA IS

FREE FROM DIRT AND DEBRIS BEFORE REMOVING ANY

HYDRAULIC COMPONENTS.

IN THE EVENT OF CONTAMINATION CLEAN THE HYDRAULIC

SYSTEM OIL UNTIL THE HYDRAULIC OIL CLEANLINESS FACTOR

MEETS ISO 18/15, NO ADDITIONAL TIME IS INCLUDED IN THIS

PROCEDURE FOR SYSTEM FLUSHING.

Procedure – Hydraulic Compensating Valve Installation:

1. Remove any attachment from the machine.

2. Prepare the machine for servicing by:

a. Park the machine on a firm, level surface with the machine level

b. Retract the boom and elevate the boom to approximately a 33 degree

boom angle.

c. Place the travel select lever in the (N) NEUTRAL position and engage the

parking brake.

d. Position the rod end of the tilt cylinder to the fully extended position.

e. Shut the engine OFF.

f. Properly support the boom.

g. Chock the front and rear wheels of the machine.

3. Remove the hydraulic valve from the kit (P/N 353-3455) and insert adapter (P/N

298-0462,) into the port marked “C2”. Torque the fitting to 55 Nm (41 lb ft).

4. Install the three 90º elbow adapters (P/N 303-4754) into the three remaining

ports of the valve. Torque the fittings to 55 Nm (41lb ft), ensuring the orientation

is as shown in Figure #1.

#C111C3

Page 3 of 7

5. Apply loctite #243 to the threads of both hex head bolts (P/N 297-7091).

6. Attach hydraulic valve (P/N 353-3455) to the mounting bracket (P/N 353-3454)

as shown in Figure #2, using the two hexhead bolts (P/N 297-7091). A washer

(P/N 8T-4224) must be placed on both the head and nut end of the bolt. Secure

with nut (P/N 5C-7261).

FIGURE #2

7. Measure 570 mm (22-1/2 inches) from the compensation cylinder barrel rod end

and mark the location (refer to Figure #3).

FIGURE #1

Note: Left hand image shows ports marked “V1” and “V2”.

Right hand image shows ports marked “C1” and “C2”.

Secondary ports are uppermost in both images.

#C111C3

FIGURE #3

8. Using clamps (P/N 343-7049) securely attach the valve and bracket assembly to

the compensation cylinder (Note: the bolts inserted in Step #7 should be on the

left hand side of the valve block when mounted).

9. The left hand side of the valve should be placed to correspond with the mark

made in Step #8. Tighten both clamps with a torque of 4.5 Nm (3.3 lb ft).

10. Remove and discard any cable ties fitted to the compensation cylinder hoses.

11. Prepare to loosen the compensation cylinder hydraulic hoses by placing a drain

pan of suitable size close to the work area. Oil discharge will be less than 1 litre

(1/4 gallon).

12. Carefully loosen the compensation cylinder hoses, attached to the hydraulic pipe

mounted on the underside of the boom, allowing any trapped pressure to relieve.

Allow oil to drain into a suitable receptacle then remove both hoses completely

from the cylinder, destroy or responsibly discard.

13. Install hose (P/N 353-3448) from the rod end of the compensation cylinder to

valve port marked “V1”. Correctly torque the hose fitting to 55 Nm (41lb ft).

14. Re-orientate the fitting located at the non-rod end of the compensation cylinder

(refer to Figure #4). Install hose (P/N 353-3451) from valve port marked “V2” to

this fitting. Correctly torque the hose fitting to 55 Nm (41 lb ft).

#C111C3

Page 5 of 7

FIGURE #4

15. Install hoses as follows:

a. (TH336 and TH406 only)

Using hose (P/N 353-3450) connect valve port marked “C1” to the inner

boom hydraulic pipe and hose (P/N 353-3449) from the outer boom

hydraulic pipe to valve port marked “C2”. Correctly torque the hose fittings

to 55 Nm (41 lb ft).

b. (TH337 and TH407 only)

Using hose (P/N 353-3453) connect valve port marked “C1” to the inner

boom hydraulic pipe and hose (P/N 353-3452) from the outer boom

hydraulic pipe to valve port marked “C2”. Correctly torque the hose fittings

to 55 Nm (41 lb ft).

16. Ensure the outer face corners of the hydraulic valve block are spaced the same

distance from the boom. If necessary adjust positioning of the valve until correct

position is achieved. Ensure the clamps installed in Step #8 are secure.

17. Using four cable ties (three on TH337 and TH407) fix both boom hoses to the

boom hydraulic pipe as shown in Figure #5.
