GENERAL SAFETY RULES


PERSONAL SAFETY

Always wear the personal protective equipment in situations requiring it.

Pay particular attention to the risk of getting crushed due to moving parts, oscillations, material not
properly secured when performing lifting operations or moving loads.

Do not wear any rings, watches, jewellery, loose or hanging items of clothing such as scarves, unbuttoned jackets or tops with open zippers that can get caught up in moving parts.

Never do any cleaning, lubrication or maintenance work with the battery connected.

Using compressed air to clean the parts, protect yourself with goggles that have side protection. The
maximum air pressure must not exceed 1 bar.

SAFETY AT THE WORKPLACE


Make sure that all the work tools are perfectly efficient and ready for use. Keep the work surfaces clean
and clear of debris that can come into contact with parts of the machine and cause damage.

Make sure you keep sparks, naked lights and cigarettes away from fuels or flammable materials such
as the gas of the batteries and fuels.

Make sure that the work area is ventilated, well illuminated, dry and clean. Remove any puddles of
water or oil stains.

Make sure that the equipment, devices or lifting machinery used is able to sustain the load in a stable
manner.

Never use gasoline, diesel fuel or other flammable liquids such as detergents: instead use non-flammable
and non-toxic trade solvents.

When working outside the garage, move the machine preferably onto the level and block it. If working
on a slope is inevitable, block the machine beforehand and move it onto a level area as soon as possible with a certain margin of safety.

Disconnect the batteries and label all the controls to signal that work is in progress. Block the machine
and every attachment that has to be raised.

Never perform any servicing on the machine with persons at the controls, unless they are accredited
operators and help with the operation to be performed.

When towing use solely the prescribed coupling points and check that the pins and/or bolts are firmly
secured before pulling. Lift and handle all the heavy parts with lifting equipment of adequate capacity.
Use the lifting eyebolts intended for this purpose. Make sure no one is near the load to be lifted.

Avoid twisting chains or metal ropes.

Do not trust bent or damaged chains or ropes: do not use them for lifting or pulling. Always wear the
safety gloves to handle them.

Do not accumulate rags soaked in grease or oil: they are a great fire hazard. Always put them away
into a closed metal container.

Used oil must be specially collected. It must not be disposed of into normal drainage system pipes.
Special companies can be employed to dispose of or recycle industrial oils according to the laws in
force in individual countries.

When welding is necessary, you must use appropriate safety protection: dark goggles, hard hat, overalls,
gloves, safety footwear. Dark goggles must be worn also by those who are not doing the work if they
remain nearby during the welding.

SERVICE

INTRODUCTION

Before using the batteries, make sure that both ends of the cables are connected to the terminals as
prescribed: (+) with (+) and (-) with (-).

Do not short-circuit the terminals.

The gas released when charging is highly flammable. When charging, leave the battery compartment
uncovered for more effective ventilation and take off the plugs.

Never check the battery charge with "jumpers" obtained by putting metal items on the terminals.

Before taking any action, check that no elements are shorted.

Always disconnect the battery before working on the electrical system.

For battery chargers and similar equipment, use solely auxiliary power sources with an effective ground
connection to avoid any electric shocks.

Fluid passing through a very small orifice can be virtually invisible and have sufficient force to penetrate
under the skin; in such cases, having to make a check, use a card or a piece of wood.

Having to check the system pressure, use the specific instruments.

BELTS, ROPES AND SUSPENSION ELEMENTS: USER ADVICE


Keep a record of all the suspension elements used, stating the characteristics of the suspension elements and the data given on the identification plate .

Never leave belts, cords or suspension elements in use whose identification plate has been lost.

Always use belts, ropes or suspension elements of suitable dimensions. Concerning the suspension
elements, take into consideration the lifting angle and any unbalancing of the load.

The bells on the suspension elements must be sized in proportion to the hook of the overhead travelling
crane and anyhow must be free to move easily.

Always rest the load in the race of the hook.

Never load the tip of the hook.

When lifting, avoid sudden operations that can jerk on the ropes and belts.

Never do any lifting with the ropes and belts twisted.

Knots are not permissible. Always protect the ropes and belts when they come into contact with sharp
edges.

When moving with no load, to prevent impact and accidental hooking, hang the hooks in the bells and
close the safety ones.

Using suspension elements under conditions of unbalanced load


If lifting unbalanced loads it is advised as a precaution to downrate the load capacities of the lifting elements:
Slings with 2 booms, consider them as corresponding to 1 boom.
Slings with 3 and 4 booms, consider them as corresponding to 2 booms.
Tips for maintenance
Periodically examine the belts, ropes and suspension elements according to current legislation to define
their state of service.
Change them in the following cases:
When the components show: deformation, cracks, hollows, cuts or abrasions.
When the wear of the components exceeds 10% of the original dimensions.
When the sling shows signs of overloading.

TORQUE SETTINGS FOR SCREWS, NUTS AND FITTINGS


Before disassembling the various parts
and nuts and bolts, read the following
carefully.
To make the threaded matings secure, LOCTITE 270 is
used for tightening the screws.
If it is not possible to unscrew the bolts because this
product has been used, avoid applying extensions to
the tools, instead slightly heat the area (at most 50C)
so as to eliminate the LOCTITE 270 effect.
In the cases described, reapply LOCTITE 270 during
installation in a moderate quantity (30% of the mating
surface).
The torque setting used for tightening the threaded
couplings is extremely important to make the coupling
secure and the machine safe.
The tables on this page give the classes of bolts normally
used with the relevant torque settings.

INTRODUCTION

CORRECT METHOD FOR APPLYING FEMALE FITTINGS


To assure a reliable seal between female fittings and the adapters in this manual, it is necessary to observe
the following procedure, which differs from the one for assembling rigid pipes.
Female fittings without a gasket (metal/metal joint)
Screw on the nut by hand and then, with the aid of a wrench, tighten by another quarter turn.
Female fittings with O-ring
Screw on the nut by hand and then, with the aid of a wrench, tighten by another half turn.
In every case make sure that the pipe is properly aligned before tightening the nut on the adapter.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLING FLEXIBLE HOSES AND FITTINGS


Inspection of pipes and fittings
When even just one of the following conditions arises the pipe must immediately be disconnected and
replaced:

a shift of the connector on the pipe;


the presence of damage, cuts or abrasions on the surface layer;
hardening or stiffness of the pipe, the presence of burns or cracks due to heat exposure;
the presence of cracks, damage or bad corrosion on the connector;
the presence of leaks along the pipe or at the connector;
the presence of permanent creases, compression, flattening or twists in the pipe;
the presence of blisters, softening, wear of the external coat.

Pre-installation inspection
Before installing a flexible hose it is necessary to inspect the pipes carefully. First check that the type, size,
reference code and length are correct, then check there is no debris, blockages, bubbles, peeling of the
outer layer or any other visible defects.
Installation
Avoid twisting the pipe, which could cause it to burst under pressure.
There must be an adequate radius of curvature to prevent constriction and collapse. The life of the assembled pipe decreases considerably when below the minimum radius of curvature.
The pressure can cause changes in the length of the pipe, up to + 2%. It will be wise to have a slightly
greater length than the requirement in order to compensate for these changes.

TRUCK PRESENTATION
The new range of retractable trucks consists of 7 models with nominal load capacities from 1400 kg to
2500 kg.
Electrical system
All the motors benefit from the use of three phase AC alternate current technology: traction motor, steering
motor and pump motor.
The high battery efficiency is ensured by the regenerative inversion and release braking.
The electronic controls VCM, ACE2 Traction, ACE2 Pump and EPS ACW communicate via a CAN-Bus
system (Controller Area Network Bus). There are two separate CAN-Bus lines to improve the efficiency,
reliability and independence of the modules.
Hydraulic system
The 14 kW pump motor provides excellent performance thanks to the technology with proportional solenoid valves for the carriage out/return, lifting/lowering, fork tilting and side shifting operations with smooth
movements of the actuators.
Mast
The masts comprise three stages: external, middle and internal.
The rigidity and stability characteristics of the masts allow the forks to reach maximum heights of between
5 and 12 metres depending on the model.
The lifting cylinders are single-acting plungers.

INSTALLATION AND SETTINGS

BEFORE INSTALLATION
Depending on the size of the mast and the kind of transportation (container, truck, etc.), the carriage may
be shipped:
complete in vertical position (option A)
with the mast assembly separate from the truck base (option B).
In the second instance one must check in advance that one is equipped with all the tools necessary to bring
it to the vertical position and fit the column (hire forklift truck, bridge crane, belts, etc.). These machines
are tested for all their functions and the mast assemblies are then dismantled, tying the fork carrier plate to
the base of the column so that it does not run along the inner mast; caps are also put on all the hydraulic
connectors to prevent oil leaking out during transport. When the unit arrives, the column must have been
fitted and testing performed for all the functions.
Before delivering to the client it is very important to check the suitability of the place where the carriage is
to be installed.

List of the SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS to be carried out


After assembling all the machine's components as described in the previous pages, the following operations
must be carried out in the sequence given:





Setting the battery voltage


Checking the conditions of use of the truck
Checking the contrast roller movement along the aisle
Enabling and programming level pre-selection
Enabling and programming middle fork lifting blocks
Enabling and programming operator passwords

SETTING THE ACE2 TRACTION AND THE ACE2 PUMP MODULE BATTERY VOLTAGES
If a battery that is not provided by the factory is installed on the truck, the battery voltage on the VCM
module must be set.
To carry out this regulation, it is good practice to proceed with an additional charging period for the battery
used on the carriage in order that it may provide the maximum voltage.

With the engine turned off connect the programmer
Turn on the machine (ON switch) and select the following parameter:
VCM module / config menu adjustment / adjust battery
Using the tester, measure the exact voltage of the battery on the VCM control between the negative power
connection (-Batt) on one of the two traction or pump inverters and the positive measured on pin 28 of
connector A of the VCM module (fig.4). The parameter "adjust battery" must be set with the value of
this tension.
Turn the machine off (switch key OFF) and disconnect the programmer.

CHECK THE CONDITIONS OF USE OF THE TRUCK


In order to ensure the safety personnel and materials, before proceeding with the operations described below, it is important to assess the following:
The type of load to be moved
The general conditions of the warehouse, aisles and flooring
Having carried out these assessments verify whether the conditions given are compatible with the performance levels set:




maximum traction speed


traction acceleration
reduction of traction speed
maximum fork lifting/lowering speed
braking

If necessary, reduce truck performance by using the programmer to customise the truck configuration parameter (see "TRUCK FUNCTIONS"section "ELECTRICAL SYSTEM").

In order not to jeopardize the safety of the truck, the only way in which the truck configuration parameters may be modified is by reducing the factory-set values.
Parameter values that exceed the factory-set values are not permitted.

CHECK THE MOVEMENT OF THE CONTRASTING AISLE ROLLERS


Make sure that the truck can enter the aisle easily and that the contrasting rollers are correctly adjusted
(maximum tolerance 5 mmon one side fig.1).
If necessary remove or add shims.
Check the roller movement along the entire length of the aisle.

that manages the retroaction of the phase voltage.

Logic failure #1

Cause:
This alarm appears when the control device detects over
or under voltage conditions. The overvoltage threshold is
45V, the undervoltage threshold is 9V on the 24V control
device. On the 48V control device, the overvoltage threshold is 65V and the undervoltage threshold is 11V.

22

Finding the trouble appearing on start up or in standby,


it is very likely in these cases that the fault is due to undervoltage, so it is advisable to check:
Diminishing pulsations of the key input signal (beneath the undervoltage threshold) due to external
loads, such as switching on DC/DC converters,
switching on relays or contactors, energizing/deenergizing solenoids.
Check the connection of the electrical cables to the
battery terminal, positive and negative, to MC and to
the control device +Batt and Batt, which must be
tightened to a torque of between 13Nm and 15Nm.
If no voltage transient is detected on the power supply line and the alarm is present every time the key
is switched on, then the fault probably lies with the
hardware of the control device and so the logic board
needs replacing.
Finding the trouble appearing during motor operation, in
this case there could be undervoltage or overvoltage.
If the alarm appears during acceleration while in traction or operation of the hydraulic functions, it is most
likely due to undervoltage; check the battery charge
and the connection of the electrical cables.
If the alarm appears during brake release, it is most
likely due to overvoltage; check the contact of the line
contactor and the connection of the electrical cables
of the battery.

Capacitor charge
The charging capacitor diagram is shown below:

Cause:
When the key is turned on, the inverter tries to charge
the power capacitors through a series of PTC and the
power resistance and it checks whether the capacitors
have charged within a short time frame. If the measured
capacitor voltage is less than 20% of the nominal voltage
of the battery, an alarm is signalled; the main contactor is
not closed.

There is an external load in parallel with the bank


of capacitors that disperses the current from the
pre-charging circuit of the capacitors of the control
device, thereby preventing the central contacts from
charging. Check if a lamp bulb or a dc/dc converter
or an auxiliary load is positioned in parallel with the
bank of capacitors.
The charge resistance or PTC is open; add a power
resistance over the electrical terminals of the line

Incorrect start

Cause:
It is a warning for an incorrect start sequence.

Acquire the maximum and minimum value of the potentiometer via the PROGRAM VACC function. If the
alarm persists, check the mechanical calibration and
the operation of the potentiometer. If the alarm is not

proceed with replacement.
The possible causes of this alarm are (see the TESTER
items to make troubleshooting easier):
Active drive request with key activated
Active man on board sensor with key activated.
Check the wiring. Check the microswitches. It could also
be an issue of an incorrect error sequence performed by
the operator. a fault in the logic board is another possibility; therefore, after checking all the above conditions and
finding nothing, replace the ACE logic board.

Encoder error
Cause:
This fault is signalled under the following conditions: the
frequency supplied to the motor is greater than 40 Hz and
the encoder's feedback signal shows leaps of more than
40 Hz in just a few tens of mSec. This behaviour is linked
to an encoder malfunction.

Check both the electrical and mechanical operation


of the encoder and check for any constriction of the
cables.
Verify the encoder's mechanical installation, checking whether the encoder slides inside its housing,
producing an alarm condition.
E ven an electromagnetic sound on the sensor
bearing could cause this alarm. In these cases, try
replacing the encoder.
If the problem persists even after replacing the encoder, the fault lies with the control device.

Fb sensor locked
Cause:
It is closed loop monitoring. This alarm occurs if the current
speed (freq_enci measured with the main encoder) does
not follow the controlled speed (set point) (freq_req deriving
from pre-processing the outputs of the stepper motor) for
longer than 500msec and the traction speed is greater than
15% (at the lowest traction speed, the delay time increases
up to 2.5sec, when the traction speed is less than 5%).
This alarm occurs if the misalignment between the current
speed and the controlled speed remains greater than 30%
of the controlled speed and greater than 5Hz above the

SPEED REDUCTION
There are two levels of speed reduction available on the machine.

cutback speed

first reduction in traction speed (7 km/h).


This trips when the height of the forks off the ground exceeds the free lift
(h2) or when the retractable carriage is fully out (the speed starts decreasing
when the carriage is over 100 mm out and falls in line with the movement of
the retractable carriage).

cutback speed 2

second reduction in traction speed (4 km/h).


This trips when the height of the forks off the ground exceeds 9 metres (applicable only with the fork encoder option).

DECELERATION WITH STEERING TRACTION WHEEL
This function reduces the maximum traction speed in proportion to the increase in the steering angle. The
dead zone within which deceleration does not trigger is between 0 and 5.
Above 5 there is an initial slowdown (10 km/h) that remains steady if the steering angle is between 5
and 20. Above 20 a second deceleration triggers that increases as the steering angle increases. This
deceleration reaches a maximum of 6.5 km/h with the wheel turned 90.

LIMIT STOP SLOWDOWN lifting / LOWERING


We need to distinguish between two cases:
There is no fork height encoder
There is a fork height encoder (optional)
If there is no fork height encoder, the forks undergo no deceleration before reaching the maximum height
in the lifting phase nor the limit stop in the lowering phase.

WITH FORK HEIGHT ENCODER (OPTIONAL)


In the phase of lifting and lowering, the forks start slowing down in the transition between the free lift limit
stop and main lifting.
With the programmer it is possible to set the speed of deceleration and the distance off the ground where
the forks start slowing down.

STANDARD CONFIGURATION OF MODULE PARAMETERS


It is advisable to retain the factory settings seeing as they have been designed to achieve
the best compromise between performance and part wear and tear. It is however possible
to customise the performance to suit the customer's requirements, the characteristics of
the warehouse and the materials to be moved, but no parameters must be changed if this
jeopardises the safety of the truck.

SERVICE

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

CYLINDERS
SINGLE ACTING CYLINDER
Single acting cylinders receive and discharge the oil through a single pipe and the pressurised oil acts
on just one side of the piston (single acting pushing cylinders) or on the flat face of the rod in the case of
plunger type cylinders.
Single-acting plunger type cylinders
In this type of cylinder the piston is replaced by the flat end face of the piston rod or plunger; these cylinders
are usually mounted vertically or in other positions in which the force of gravity returns the plunger to the
rest position. Usually the diameter of the lower end of the rod is increased by a few millimetres in order to
avoid it slipping out at the end of it's upstroke; this gives rise to a hydraulic damping effect during the last
stages of the stroke which helps the slowing of the rod and avoids recoil on the upper end cap. Static seals
located in the end cap prevent oil leaking outside the cylinder.
To replace these seals it is necessary to unscrew the seal carrier bush.
Single acting cylinder with hollow rods differ in that before the lifting stroke begins the rod is also filled with
oil. This solution is used on particularly tall truck masts to increase the resistance of the cylinders at the
maximum height and make it possible to use smaller cylinder barrels and rods.
Static seals and dynamic seals
Dynamic seals, installed on the piston, prevent oil from leaking between the chambers of the cylinder barrel, while the static seals, located at the joint between two parts (seal carrier bush - barrel) or between the
sliding parts (rod barrel), prevent oil leaking from the inside to the outside of the cylinder.

MAST CHARACTERISTICS
The masts used have three stages.
These masts have machined channels so as to reduce the distance between the channel chamber and
the rollers. The channels are machined with special machinery to permit smooth movement of the mast
assembly, less oscillation, less friction, low wear, and less noise.
Wider rollers permit handling heavier loads. Hassle-free setting of the correct axis of the bearings without
having to remove the roller entirely.

BRAKING SYSTEM

OPERATION
BRAKE FITTED ON THE TRACTION MOTOR
The electromagnetic brake mounted on the traction motor is only a parking brake and it is a spring-operated
brake.
When the electromagnet is powered, it attracts the brake plate and releases the friction disc, allowing the
latter to rotate freely.
When the power supply to the electromagnet is cut, the springs push the brake plate down onto the friction
disc, thus applying the brake.
BRAKE FITTED ON THE LOAD WHEELS
Tall machines are fitted with electromagnetic brakes on the load wheels for safer braking.
The electromagnet is secured on the base of the wheel pin while the brake disk is secured to the wheel
with screws, the brake regulator and the springs.
Braking is activated by pressing on the brake pedal in the cab, the electromagnet attracts the brake disk
against the brake liner creating friction between these two parts.
BRAKING systems
There are 4 braking systems used:



Release braking
Braking on direction reversal
Emergency braking
Parking brake

A) Release braking
Controls the deceleration ramp when the drive control is released.
B) Braking on direction reversal
Controls the deceleration ramp when the travel direction is inverted.
Braking on direction reversal", also know as counter current braking, consists of reversing the current
supplied to the motor, thus changing the direction of travel when the truck is in motion.
The braking current must be adjusted so that the truck stops in a distance that is at least not less than the
length of the truck itself.
C) Emergency braking
Emergency braking occurs when the dead man's pedal is released or an alarm is triggered that requires an
immediate arrest of truck traction or when one of the emergency buttons on the truck is pressed.
The braking action is performed by the electromagnetic brake mounted on the traction motor and by the
load wheels (when fitted).
D) Parking brake
The "parking brake" action is performed by the electromagnetic brake and is applied when the truck is
stationary and the dead man's pedal is released.

SERVICE

WARNINGS

If maintenance operations are carried out immediately after the truck is stopped, some components of
the motor and of the hydraulic system could be hot. Always wear the personal protective equipment in
situations requiring it.

Do not wear any rings, watches, jewellery, loose or hanging items of clothing such as scarves, unbuttoned jackets or tops with open zippers that can get caught up in moving parts.

Never do any cleaning, lubrication or maintenance work with the battery connected.

Never perform any servicing on the machine with persons at the controls, unless they are accredited
operators and help with the operation to be performed.

Using compressed air to clean the parts, protect yourself with goggles that have side protection. The
maximum air pressure must not exceed 1 bar.

Never use gasoline, diesel fuel or other flammable liquids such as detergents: instead use non-flammable
and non-toxic trade solvents.

Do not accumulate rags soaked in grease or oil: they are a great fire hazard. Always put them away
into a closed metal container.

The capacitors in the transistor control unit can keep an electric charge even after disconnecting the
battery. To avoid electric shocks and personal injury, discharge the capacitors before inspecting or
repairing any component in the electric compartment. Wear safety glasses. Make sure the battery has
been disconnected.

Do not file or lubricate the contacts of the contactors. This could cause the contacts to stick and, as a
result, loss of control and damage to property or injury to people.

Used oil must be specially collected. It must not be disposed of into normal drainage system pipes.
Special companies can be employed to dispose of or recycle industrial oils according to the laws in
force in individual countries.

Fluid passing through a very small orifice can be virtually invisible and have sufficient force to penetrate
under the skin; in such cases, having to make a check, use a card or a piece of wood.

Protect the hydraulic system from dirt or contaminants getting inside when checking the fluid level of
changing the filter.

Never operate the pump without an adequate quantity of fluid in the hydraulic system. Operation with
low levels of hydraulic fluid will damage the hydraulic pump.

Do not place any tools on the battery. Metal items on the battery can generate accidental shortcircuiting and possibly damage or injury.

The batteries generate explosive gases. Keep the vents clean. Keep sparks and flames well away
from the battery compartment. Pay attention not to create any sparks when disconnecting the battery
cables. Disconnect the battery during maintenance work.

Always use a spreader bar and slings to raise the battery vertically with the specific eyelets. Do not
use chains or slings without a spreader bar, you would risk damaging the battery casing. Check that
the battery compartment is clean and dry. When the battery is in service, the aeration plugs must all be
installed. If the aeration plugs are not installed, electrolyte can come out, corroding the battery casing
and compartment.

The acid in the electrolyte can cause injury. If the electrolyte gets spilled it should be cleaned up with
water. Neutralize the acid with a solution of sodium bicarbonate (soda). Areas of the skin that come
into contact with the acid must be rinsed with water immediately. Acid splashed into the eyes must be
washed away with water constantly for at least 10 minutes, then call a doctor.

SERVICE

STANDARD MAINTENANCE

The batteries belong to the counterweight system of the lift truck. When installing a battery that is too
small, the lift truck might not have enough weight for the nominal load. When replacing a battery, see
the truck identification data plate to check that the battery has the rated capacity and correct dimensions. See TRUCK AND LOAD CAPACITY IDENTIFICATION DATA in the PRESENTATION section for the exact battery specifications for the lift truck at issue.

Do not work under a raised carriage. Lower the carriage or use a safety chain to prevent the carriage
from lowering during maintenance work on the mast and on the lifting chains.

Never repair damaged forks using heat or welding. The forks are made of steel that is hardened with
special procedures. Replace damaged forks.

Before servicing the hydraulic system you must eliminate any residual pressure inside it.
Close the valves at the end of the maintenance work.

The maintenance and repair procedures must be carried out only by specialist service technicians with
the relevant authorizations and appropriate training. Repairs carried out incorrectly can create hazardous work conditions for the operator.

Do not utilize a truck if it requires repairs. Affix a DO NOT USE label on the steering wheel. Remove
the key and disconnect the battery.

CHECK FORKS
Equipment and tools

rule

There must be no cracks in the structure of the forks and particularly at welded joins (ref.A fig.1). If any
cracks are visible, replace the fork. Do not attempt any repairs by welding;
Measure the thickness of the heel (ref.B fig.1). If the thickness of the heel is less than 90% of the thickness
of the vertical bracket (ref.C fig.1) replace the fork.
The fork tips must be aligned to within 3% of the length of the fork at the time of installation on the carrier
plate (ref.D fig.1). Do not attempt to correct the alignment of the forks by altering the angle of the bend or
the connection between the carrier plate and the forks. Certain improvements can be obtained by shifting
the forks from one side of the carrier plate to the other, or by selecting other forks of corresponding length
from the equipment store.
In cases where there is a permanent deflection between the vertical bracket (ref.E fig.1) and the blade
(ref.F fig.1), the maximum acceptable angle is 93 degrees. If the angle (ref.G fig.1) exceeds 93, the fork
must be replaced.
