INTRODUCTION
GENERAL
This section contains a MAINTENANCE SCHED-
ULE and the instructions for maintenance and inspec-
tion.
The MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE has time intervals
for inspection, lubrication and maintenance. The time
intervals are based on a normal operation. A normal
operation is considered to be one eight hour shift per
day in a relatively clean environment on an improved
surface. Multiple shifts, dirty operating conditions,
etc., will require a reduction in the recommended time
periods in the Maintenance Schedule.
Some users have service personnel and facilities to do
the items listed in the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE.
Service Manuals are available from your Hyster lift
truck dealer to help users who do their own mainte-
nance.
Your Hyster lift truck lift truck dealer has the personnel
and equipment to do a complete program of inspection,
lubrication and maintenance. Periodic maintenance
will help your lift truck operate better over a longer pe-
riod.
Put the lift truck on a level surface. Lower the platform
and forks, apply the parking brake and turn the key
switch to OFF. Open the access panels and check for
leaks and conditions that are not normal. Clean any oil
or other spills. Make sure that lint, dust, paper and other
materials are removed from the compartments.
WARNING
Do not make repairs or adjustments unless you have
both authorization and training. Repairs and ad-
justments that are not correct can be made on a lift
truck by people without authorization and training.
Repairs and adjustments that are not correct can
make a dangerous operating condition.
Do not operate a lift truck that needs repairs. Report
the need for repairs immediately. If repair is neces-
sary, put a DO NOT OPERATE tag in the opera-
tors area. Remove the key from the key switch.
HOW TO MOVE A DISABLED LIFT TRUCK
WARNING
Use extra care when moving a lift truck during the
following conditions:
a. Brakes do not operate correctly
b. Steering does not operate correctly
c. Tires are damaged
d. Traction conditions are bad
e. The lift truck must be towed on a steep grade.
If there is no electrical power, there is no steering and
the brake will be applied. Do NOT tow the lift truck if
there is no power. Poor traction can cause the disabled
lift truck or towing vehicle to slide. Steep grades will
require additional brake force to stop the lift truck.
Never carry a disabled lift truck unless the lift truck
MUST be moved and can not be towed. The lift truck
used to lift the disabled lift truck MUST have a rated
capacity equal to or greater than the weight of the dis-
abled lift truck. The capacity must be for a load center
equal to half the width of the disabled lift truck. See the
nameplate on the disabled lift truck for the approximate
total weight. The forks must extend the full width of the
disabled lift truck. Center the weight of the disabled lift
truck on the forks and be careful not to damage the un-
der side of the disabled lift truck. Tilt the mast back and
travel slowly.
CAUTION
Do NOT tow the lift truck by fastening a towing de-
vice to the attachment or base arms. Make sure the
guidance sensors are not damaged when connecting
a chain to the lift truck.
How To Tow The Lift Truck
1. If the lift truck must be towed, the operator must be
on the lift truck to release the brake and steer the lift
truck.
2. Tow the lift truck slowly.
3. Raise the platform approximately 30 cm (12 inches)
from the surface. Install a chain to prevent the platform
and mast channels from moving.
4. If another lift truck that has the drive wheels near the
forks is used to tow the disabled lift truck, that lift truck
1
must have weight added to the forks. The total weight
of the lift truck and load must be equal or greater than
the weight of the disabled lift truck. Install a load of ap-
proximately half the maximum capacity on the forks of
the lift truck that is used for towing. This load will in-
crease the traction of the lift truck. Keep the load on the
forks lowered as much as possible. If the lift truck used
for towing has a master drive unit or drive unit similar
to the R40E/EA/EF/ES, do NOT add weight to the
forks. Additional weight on the forks will DECREASE
the traction of the drive wheel(s). Make sure that the lift
truck has a total weight equal to or greater than the
weight of the disabled lift truck.
5. Make sure the tow chain has the capacity to tow the
weight. Carefully fasten the tow chain to the drive unit
end of the lift truck. Make sure the chain is fastened so
that the chain will not cause damage to either lift truck.
HOW TO PUT A LIFT TRUCK ON BLOCKS
WARNING
The lift truck must be put on blocks for some types of
maintenance and repair. The removal of the follow-
ing assemblies will cause large changes in the center
of gravity: mast, battery and master drive unit.
Do NOT put the lift truck on blocks if the surface is
not solid, even and level. Make sure that any blocks
used to support the lift truck are solid, onepiece
units. Put a block in front and back of the tires touch-
ing the ground to prevent movement of the lift truck.
Do not raise the lift truck by attaching an overhead
crane to the overhead guard or areas of the mast that
can be damaged. Some of these components and oth-
er lift points are not designed to support the weight of
the lift truck. The lift truck can be damaged or it can
fall on someone causing serious injury. Attach the
chain or sling to a support structure of the lift truck
frame.
How To Raise Drive Tire (See FIGURE 1.)
1. Put blocks on each side (front and back) of the load
wheels to prevent movement of the lift truck.
2
CAUTION
Make sure the sensors are not damaged on trucks
that have wire guidance.
2. Use a special low clearance hydraulic jack, crane or
another lift truck to raise the drive tire. Make sure that
the jack, crane or other lift truck has the correct mini-
mum capacity rating. The capacity must equal at least
2/3 the weight of the lift truck including the battery. See
the nameplate.
3. Raise the lift truck only enough to suspend the drive
tire. Install additional blocks under the frame near the
drive tire.
How To Raise Load Wheels (See FIGURE 1.)
1. Put blocks on both sides (front and back) of the drive
tire to prevent movement of the lift truck.
CAUTION
Make sure the sensors are not damaged on trucks
that have wire guidance.
WARNING
Never raise the base arms any higher than necessary
to change the load wheels. Always raise both base
arms at the same time. Raising the base arms too
high can make the lift truck tip over and cause dam-
age or possible injury.
2. Use a hydraulic jack, crane or another lift truck to lift
the base arms. Make sure that the jack, crane or other
lift truck has a capacity equal to at least half the weight
of the lift truck including the battery.
3. Put blocks under the base arm at the rear of the load
wheel to support the lift truck.
CAUTION
For correct operation of the wire guidance system,
both load wheels must always be replaced at the
same time. The load wheels must have the same di-
ameter within 1 mm (0.039 in).

Replace damaged forks.
Never repair damaged forks by heating or welding.
Forks are made of special steel using special proce-
dures. Replace damaged forks. Always replace forks
in pairs.
1. Inspect the welds on the mast and platform for
cracks. Make sure that the nuts and bolts are tightened.
2. Inspect the channels for wear in the areas where the
rollers travel. Inspect the rollers for wear or damage.
3. Check all lift chains for the correct lubrication. Lu-
bricate the lift chains using the oil specified in the
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE in this section.
4. Inspect the lift chains for cracks or broken links and
pins. See FIGURE 4.
5. Inspect the chain anchors and pins for cracks or dam-
age.
6. Make sure the lift chains are adjusted so that they
have equal tension. Check tension by pulling horizon-
tally on both chains and checking that they move the
same amount. If the chains need repair or adjustment, it
must be done by authorized personnel.
7. Check that the fork tips are aligned within 13 mm
(0.5 in) of each other. See item 1 of FIGURE 5. Add or
remove shims for alignment.
8. Inspect forks for cracks and wear.
9. Replace any damaged or broken parts that are used to
keep the forks locked in position.
Tether Line And Belt
1. Inspect the tether line for wear, cuts or damage. In-
spect the clips for cracks and proper operation.
WARNING
The tether line is specially made to lessen the shock
during a fall. Do not substitute other types of rope.
2. Inspect the belt for cracks, cuts or wear. The operator
must fasten the belt snugly with the D ring in the cen-
ter of the back.
Pallet Clamp
Check for correct operation of the pallet clamp. Put an
empty pallet on the forks. With the forks raised so that
the pallet is supported by the forks, stand on the corners
of the pallet farthest from the operators platform.
Some movement may occur, but the board under the
opposite fork must not raise enough to contact the fork.

HOW TO MAKE CHECKS WITH THE KEY
SWITCH ON
WARNING
Make sure the area around the lift truck is clear be-
fore moving the lift truck or checking for correct op-
eration. Be careful when making the checks.
Gauges, Lights, Horn And Fuses
(See FIGURE 7. and Table 1)
NOTE: None of the electrical controls will operate until
the power disconnect circuit is energized by the key
switch.
Check that all the instruments and controls operate as
described in OPERATING MANUAL. Check the op-
eration of the gauges and horn. The key switch must be
in the ON position to operate the horn. The key switch
must be ON and the foot switch depressed for the hour
meter to operate. The battery meter operates whenever
a charged battery is connected.
The battery meter correctly indicates the condition of
the battery. If the battery meter needle is in the red area
or the light (lift interrupt) is ON, charge the battery.
There must be a current flow from the battery before
the indicator for the lift interrupt will be reset and indi-
cate correctly. Normal operation, after connecting a
charged battery, will reset the indicator.
There is a 15 amp control fuse under the instrument
panel. There can also be a 15 amp fuse for the spot light
and fan. There is also a 35 amp fuse near the steer mo-
tor contactor in the motor compartment. There are two
power fuses in the electrical compartment. The power
fuses have the following ratings:
Traction Motor 300 amp
Hydraulic Pump Motor 500 amp
Check that the fuses are the correct size and are not
burned. Some types of fuses must be checked with an
ohmmeter. If any of the fuses are bad, disconnect the
battery before replacing the fuse.

Lift System Operation
WARNING
Lower the lift mechanism completely. Never allow
anyone under a raised platform or forks. Do not put
any part of your body in or through the lift mecha-
nism unless all parts of the mast and platform are
completely lowered and the key switch is in the OFF
position. Remove the key.
Before making any repairs, completely lower the
platform or use chains on the mast weldments and
platform so that they can not move. Make sure the
moving parts are fastened to the parts that can not
move.
Do not try to find hydraulic leaks by putting hands
on hydraulic components under pressure. Hydraulic
oil can be injected into the body by pressure.
1. Check for leaks in the hydraulic system. Check the
condition of the hydraulic hoses and tubes.
2. Slowly raise and lower the forks and the platform
several times without a load. All moving components
must raise and lower smoothly.
3. The platform and the forks must lower completely.
4. Raise the platform one metre (three feet), with a ca-
pacity load. The inner weldment and platform must
raise smoothly. Lower the platform and forks. All mov-
ing components must lower smoothly.
5. Check that the top of the forks are 70 to 83 mm (2.75
to 3.25 inches) above the floor for the R30E units.
Check that the forks are 159 to 171 mm (6.25 to 6.75
in) above the floor for the R30EA, R30EF and R30ES
units. If the clearance is not correct, the chain anchors
must be adjusted.
6. Check the operation of the limit switches on the
mast. The maximum travel speed must be slower when
the platform is above 910 mm (24 in). The R30E units
must not move when the platform is above 3810 mm
(150 in) unless the lift truck has the Override function
and the Override button is depressed. The R30EA,
R30EF and R30ES units will move when the platform
is above 3810 mm (150 in) if the steering system is
within 7 of straight travel.
7. If necessary, have the lift truck checked and adjusted
by authorized service personnel.
Brake
Check the operation of the brake. The brake is applied
as the operators foot is removed from the foot switch.
The brake must not let the lift truck move if parked on
an incline. The brake, when in good condition and cor-
rectly adjusted, will hold the lift truck with a capacity
load on a 5% grade [a slope of 0.5 metre in 10 metres (a
slope of 0.5 ft in 10 ft)]. If the brake does not hold the
lift truck on the grade, the brake needs to be checked by
authorized service personnel. Refer to the procedures
for the BRAKE in EVERY 2000 HOURS OR
YEARLY of this section.
Steering System
WARNING
There is NO steering if there is no electrical power.
To prevent injury or damage, make sure the electric
power steering is operating correctly before moving
the lift truck.
Check that the steering system operates smoothly and
gives good steering control.
9
 EVERY 350 HOURS OR TWO MONTHS
Do these procedures in addition to the 8 hour checks.
HYDRAULIC TANK BREATHER
(See FIGURE 3.)
The fill cap and breather assembly are in the hydraulic
compartment at the top of the hydraulic tank. Remove
the fill cap assembly from the hydraulic tank and clean
the filter material of the breather in solvent. Replace
the fill cap and breather assembly if air will not flow
through it easily.
ELECTRICAL INSPECTION
WARNING
Disconnect the battery connector before making any
inspections or repairs. Personal injury or equipment
and tool damage can occur if the battery is not dis-
connected.
Do not touch the terminals of capacitor C1 of the
traction or lift control circuits. The charge on the ca-
pacitors can cause electrical shock and personal in-
jury. Use an insulated screwdriver or jumper wire to
make a shortcircuit across the capacitor terminals
to discharge each capacitor. This will discharge the
capacitors to prevent electrical shocks.
Contactors
The contact surfaces of the contactor are a silver alloy
over a copper base. In normal operation, the contact
surfaces become a dark color and rough. Cleaning is
not necessary. Do not use a file or emery cloth on the
contacts. Replace the contacts when the surface is worn
to the base material. Always replace the contacts in sets
(two pairs). If necessary, disassemble the contactor to
inspect the contacts. See the section EV100 MOTOR
CONTROLLER REPAIR, 2200 SRM 288, for the
correct replacement procedures of contactors on the
R30E/EA/EF units. See the section CURTIS TRAN-
SISTOR MOTOR CONTROLLER, 2200 SRM 411,
for the correct replacement procedures of contactors on
the R30ES units.
CAUTION
Low battery voltage makes motors use high currents
for a longer time to do the same work. These currents
10
can damage motors and weld contactor contacts.
Never try to repair contactor contacts that are
welded. Always replace welded contacts. Do not op-
erate the lift truck using a battery that has a specific
gravity of 1.130 or less.
WARNING
If the lift truck has been operated using a low battery
or deenergized with the power disconnect circuit, in-
spect for welded contacts BEFORE connecting a
charged battery. The Power Disconnect circuit will
not reset and lift truck operation cannot be con-
trolled if the contacts are welded.
Open the electrical compartment for access to the con-
tactors.
Motor Brushes (See FIGURE 8.)
CAUTION
Low battery voltage makes motors use high currents
for a longer time to do the same work. These currents
can damage motors and contactor contacts. Do not
operate the lift truck using a battery that has a spe-
cific gravity of 1.130 or less.
WARNING
Disconnect the battery before making any checks on
the motors. Personal injury or equipment and tool
damage can occur if the battery is not disconnected.
Open the front compartment doors for access to the
motors.
To check the motor brushes, disconnect the battery and
get access to the motor. Check motor brushes using the
following procedure:
a. Visually inspect the commutator and brushes
every 350 hours on all electric motors. Remove
the brush cover near one end of the motor. Move
the brush spring to remove a brush from the
holder. Pull the brush from the holder. Make sure
the surface of the commutator is good and the
operation of the motor is correct. All motor
brushes must be replaced before they damage the
surface of the commutator. Replace brushes
 before they are worn to the values shown in
TABLE 2.
NOTE: It can be necessary to remove the contactor
from the steering pump motor for access to the brushes.
b. Inspect the brush holders for burns or damage.
Make sure the brush holder is fastened tightly to
the mounts. Make sure the brushes will move
freely and smoothly in the brush holders and do
not have wire breaks.
c. Check the brush springs for damage from heat
(color changes) and corrosion. Replace a
damaged brush spring.
d. Use dry compressed air under low pressure to
remove any brush dust.
NOTE: See the section DC MOTOR MAINTE-
NANCE, 620 SRM 294, for additional information for
repair of the commutator and brushes.
SAFETY LABELS
Safety labels are installed on the lift truck to give infor-
mation about possible hazards. It is important that all

Never work under a raised platform or forks. Lower
the platform and the forks or use chains on the mast
weldments and carriage so that they can not move.
When chains are used, make sure the moving parts
are fastened to a part that can not move.
1. Inspect the surfaces in the channels where the load
rollers travel. A scraper and solvent can be used to
clean dirt from the mast channels.

CAUTION
Be careful when steam or high pressure water is used
to clean the mast channels. Do NOT permit the steam
or water to be used on the load rollers, sheaves, or lift
chains. The steam or water will damage the bearings
in the load rollers and sheaves, and cause corrosion
in the lift chains.
2. Apply a thin layer of multipurpose grease to the
surfaces in the channels of the freelift mast where the
load rollers travel. Apply the grease to both the roller
surfaces and the thrust surfaces in the mast.
NOTE: The mast and platform load rollers have sealed
bearings that do not need additional lubrication.
3. Use multipurpose grease to lubricate all sliding sur-
faces and the chain sheaves at the top of the masts.
4. Lubricate the lift chains using the oil specified in the
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE.
CHECK FOR LEAKS IN THE LIFT SYSTEM
Check the hydraulic system for internal leaks after
every 350 hours of operation.
WARNING
Never allow anyone under a raised platform or
forks. Do not put any part of your body in or through
either lift mechanism unless all parts of the mast and
carriage are completely lowered and the key is in the
OFF position.
Before making any repairs, use chains on the mast
weldments and carriage so that they can not move.
Make sure the moving parts are fastened to the parts
that can not move.
Do not try to find hydraulic leaks by putting your
hand on hydraulic components under pressure. Hy-
draulic oil can be injected into the body by the pres-
sure.

During test procedures for the hydraulic system, fas-
ten the load to the carriage with chains to prevent it
from falling. Keep all personnel away from the lift
truck during the tests.
Check The Lift Cylinders For Leaks
NOTE: R30ES units have only one lifting speed and
one lowering speed. They do not have a freelift cylin-
der.
1. Operate the hydraulic system. Put a capacity load on
the forks and raise and lower the load several times.
Operate both the slowlift and fastlift functions.
Check for leaks.
2. Raise the carriage and load one metre (3 ft). If the
carriage slowly lowers when the control valve is in the
Neutral position, there are leaks inside the hydraulic
system. Check both the slowlift and fast lift systems.
The maximum speed that the forks can slowly lower
when there are internal leaks is 50 mm (2 in) per 10
minutes. This maximum leak rate is specified for an oil
temperature of 30C (90F). If the temperature of the
hydraulic oil is 70C (160F), the specification in-
creases to 150 mm (6 in) per 10 minutes.
3. If there are leaks in the hydraulic system, check the
lift cylinders for internal leaks.
R30E/EA/EF units only. Remove the load and fully
lower the forks. Install a gate valve in the supply line
between the main control valve and the freelift cylin-
der. Put a capacity load on the forks again. Raise the
forks 50 cm (11/2 ft). Close the gate valve. If the forks
slowly lower, the seals in the freelift cylinder have
leaks.
4. Completely lower the forks. Install a gate valve at
the base of each main lift cylinder. Raise the load.
Close the gate valve at the base of one main lift cylin-
der. Push a Lower rocker switch to lower the mast. If
the load slowly lowers, the seals in one main cylinder
leak. The cylinder that has the leak is the cylinder with
the closed valve. Open the gate valve of the first main
cylinder and close the gate valve at the base of the other
main cylinder. Repeat the check for the other main lift
cylinder.
5. If the load does not lower with either gate valve
closed, open the gate valve and check the movement
again. If the load lowers when the gate valve is open,
check for leaks in the hydraulic lines and fittings. If no
leaks are found, the lowering valve can have a mal-
function. Remove the load from the forks.
6. Completely lower the forks. Remove all gate valves
and connect the hydraulic lines to the cylinders.
LIFT CHAINS
(See FIGURE 4. and FIGURE 9.)
Lubricate the lift chains using the oil specified in the
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE in this section.
If a section of chain is 3% longer than a similar section
of new chain, replace the worn chain.
If a chain scale is available, check the lift chains as
shown in FIGURE 9. If a chain scale is not available,
measure 20 links of chain. Compare the lengths with
the chart in FIGURE 9. Replace the chain if the length
of 20 links of the worn section is more than the maxi-
mum wear limit.

HOW TO CHANGE THE HYDRAULIC OIL
AND FILTER (See FIGURE 11.)
WARNING
The hydraulic oil is HOT at operating temperature.
Do not permit the hot hydraulic oil to touch the skin
and cause a burn.
Put the lift truck on a level surface. Completely lower
the mast and the forks. Put a container with a capacity
large enough to hold the quantity of oil shown in the
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE table for your unit. Put
the container near the supply hose of the hydraulic
tank. Turn the key switch to the OFF position and dis-
connect the battery.
Replace the element every 2000 hours or yearly with
each oil change. To replace the element, remove and
plug the hose at the fitting near the breather. Remove
the three nuts that fasten the plate to the top of the tank.

Raise the front of the lift truck as described in HOW
TO PUT A LIFT TRUCK ON BLOCKS in this sec-
tion. There is no drain plug in this hydraulic tank. The
hydraulic tank is drained at the supply hose. Open the
hydraulic compartment door for access to the tube end
of the supply hose. Use a shallow pan with a capacity of
approximately 30 litre (7.9 gal) for the oil. Put the pan
under the end of the hose. Disconnect the hose from the
tube and drain the oil. Connect the hose to the tube and personnel. The brake, when in good condition and cor-

 GENERAL PROCEDURES

HOW TO CHARGE THE BATTERY

WARNING
The acid in the electrolyte can cause injury. If elec-
trolyte is spilled, use water to flush the area. Make
the acid neutral with a solution of sodium bicarbon-
ate (soda) and water. Acid in the eyes must be imme-
diately flushed with water.

Batteries generate explosive fumes when they are be-

ing charged. Keep fire, sparks and burning material
away from the battery charger area. Prevent sparks
from the battery connectors.

Charge batteries only in the special area for charg-

ing batteries. When charging the batteries, keep the
vent caps clean. The battery charger area must have
ventilation so that explosive fumes are removed. Dis-
connect the battery when doing cleaning and main-
tenance.

If the lift truck has been operated using a low battery

or deenergized using the Emergency Stop Knob (see
Emergency Stop Knob in the OPERATING
MANUAL), inspect for welded contacts BEFORE
connecting a charged battery. The circuit will not re-
set and lift truck operation cannot be controlled if
the contacts are welded. To check the contacts, see
Contacts in this manual.
CAUTION
Never connect the battery charger plug to the plug of
the lift truck. You can damage the traction control
circuit. Always make sure the charger voltage is the
correct voltage for the battery.
Correct use of the hydrometer (FIGURE 13.) and
proper operation of the battery charger is important.
Operate the battery charger according to the instruc-
tions of the charger manufacturer. Never let the battery
discharge below the minimum value given by the bat-
tery manufacturer. A fully charged battery will have a
specific gravity of 1.265 to 1.310 at 25C (77F).
Never charge a battery at a rate that will raise the elec-
trolyte temperature above 49C (120F). Never permit
a battery to stay discharged for long periods.
FIGURE 13. HOW TO CHECK
SPECIFIC GRAVITY
1. NORMAL CHARGE: This charge is normally
given to a battery that is discharged from normal opera-
tion. Many customers charge the battery at regular in-
tervals that depend on use. This procedure will keep the
battery correctly charged if the battery is not dis-
charged below the limit. Always use a hydrometer to
check the battery if the battery is charged at regular in-
tervals. Frequent charging of a battery that has a 2/3 or
more charge can decrease the life of the battery.
2. EQUALIZING CHARGE: This charge is at a low
rate and balances the charge in all of the cells. The
equalizing charge is normally given approximately
once a month. It is a charge at a slow rate for three to
six hours in addition to the regular charging cycle. Do
not give an equalizing charge more than once a week.
The most accurate specific gravity measurement of
specific gravity for a charged battery will be after an
equalizing charge. If the difference in specific gravity
is more than 0.020 between cells of a battery after and
equalizing charge, there can be a cell that has a mal-
function. Consult your battery dealer.

16
NOTE: Many customers have battery chargers that can turer. Use the recommendations of the battery manufac-
follow a program to automatically charge a battery ac- turer for charging the battery.

General
WARNING
Batteries are heavy and can cause an injury. Use care
to avoid injury. Do NOT put hands, arms, feet and or
legs between the battery and a solid object.
To prevent personal injury and battery movement
that is not expected, the battery must be level when it
is moving. Make sure the battery stand is on a level
surface and is aligned and adjusted as described in
the following procedure.
Remove the Battery (See FIGURE 15.)
1. Move the key to the OFF position. Use the Battery
Disconnect to disconnect the battery.
3. Align the battery stand with the battery so that the
end of the stand is against the roller frame for the bat-
tery. Adjust the capscrew legs of the battery stand so
that the tops of the rollers are the same height as the
bottom of the battery. Adjust all four capscrew legs of
the stand so that the rollers are level. Install the battery
puller on the end of the stand at the center. See
FIGURE 15. Release the ratchet lock and attach the
hook to the lifting hole of the battery. Do not permit the
hook to make contact with cell connectors. Make sure
the battery cables are not damaged during battery re-
moval. Stand on the base of the battery puller, release
the ratchet and operate the crank to pull the battery onto
the battery stand.
4. If the battery is lifted, use a spreader bar and crane to
lift the battery from the battery stand.

2. Move to a position in front of the battery compart-

ment panel on the side for the battery stand. On R30E/
EA/EF units, raise the panel latch and move it to the
rear to keep it in the UP position. The panel will tip to-
ward you. See FIGURE 15. On R30ES units, there is a
small panel at the bottom of the battery compartment.
Lift and tilt the panel to remove it.
WARNING
Make sure the capacity of the crane and spreader
bar is greater than the weight of the battery. The
weight of the battery is normally shown on the bat-
tery case. The maximum battery weight is shown on
the lift truck nameplate. The spreader bar must

17
NOT be made of metal or it must have insulated
straps.
Batteries are heavy. Use care to avoid injury.
Install the Battery (See FIGURE 15.)
WARNING
If the lift truck was operated using a low battery or
deenergized using the Emergency Stop Knob (see
Emergency Stop Knob in the OPERATING MANU-
AL), inspect for welded contacts BEFORE connect-
ing a charged battery. The circuit will not reset and
lift truck operation cannot be controlled if the con-
tacts are welded. To check the contacts, see Contacts
in this manual.
Make sure that the battery voltage and weight of the
replacement battery is correct as shown on the
nameplate. On R30E/EA/EF units, make sure the
battery half of the connector block has the block for
the Battery Disconnect Lever.
CAUTION
The replacement battery must fit the battery com-
partment.
1. Make sure the battery is the correct size and weight
for the lift truck. The correct battery is specified in the
table at the back of this manual. Make sure the battery
has clearance for installation and that the battery con-
nector can be connected after installation. Make sure
that the battery compartment has the correct spacers for
the battery you are installing. The spacers must not let
the battery move more than 13 mm (0.5 in) in any di-
rection. The spacers must keep the battery as far from
the mast as possible. Have authorized personnel re-
place or adjust the battery spacers for that battery. See
your Hyster Lift Truck Dealer for the correct spacers.
On R30E/EA/EF units, make sure the battery connec-
tor has the block for the Battery Disconnect Lever in-
stalled. See FIGURE 16. Do not damage the battery
cables during installation.
2. Install the battery puller on the lift truck frame at the
center of the battery compartment on the side opposite
the battery stand. See FIGURE 15. Release the ratchet
lock, pass the hook through the battery compartment
and attach the hook to the battery lifting hole. Do not
permit the hook to make contact with the cell connec-
tors. Stand on the base of the battery puller and operate
18
the crank to pull the battery off the stand into the bat-
tery compartment. Make sure the foot switch is re-
leased and the key is in the OFF position before con-
necting the battery.
WARNING
Before connecting the battery, make sure the key
switch is in the OFF position and the brake is on.

HOW TO CHANGE WHEELS AND TIRES
How To Change Drive And Steer Tire
Raise the front of the lift truck as described in HOW
TO PUT A LIFT TRUCK ON BLOCKS in this sec-
tion. Remove the wheel nuts that fasten the drive/steer
wheel to the hub. Slide the wheel out from under the lift
truck. Use the reverse procedure to install the wheel.
Tighten the wheel nuts to 136 N.m (100 lbf ft) torque
after installation.
CAUTION
If the wheels have been removed and installed, check
all wheel nuts after 2 to 5 hours of operation. Tighten
the nuts in a cross pattern to the correct torque value
shown in the Maintenance Schedule table. When the
nuts stay tight after an eight hour check, the interval
for checking can be extended to 350 hours.
To change the drive tire, the wheel must be pressed out
of the rim. The correct tools, equipment and press ring
must be used for each size wheel. A press that has a ca-
pacity of approximately 36 000 kg (80 000 lb) is also
required to press the wheel out of the rim. This is not a
job that an operator should attempt. Have the tires
changed by authorized personnel that have the proper the area between the bearings with the same grease and
