Caterpillar Forklift GP35N

(1) Check the belt for contamination with oil, grease and dust. Replace the belt if required. When the contamination is slight, remove it and clean with rag or wiping paper. Do not use gasoline, oil or any other solvent to clean the belt.

(2) During engine overhaul or belt tension adjustment, closely check the belt’s condition. Replace the belt with a new one if it has any sort of damage.

Apply a force of 98 N (10 kgf) [22 lbf] perpendicularly to the belt at a point midway between the fan pulley and tension pulley. Adjust the tension so that belt deflection becomes between 11 to 13 mm (0.43 to 0.51 in.).

When connecting the hoses to the radiator, fit their ends fully on the fittings and secure them with clamps. Make sure that each hose is correctly connected and prevented from disconnection by the flare of the fitting.

Fill the radiator with coolant containing antifreeze. Start and operate the engine to let it warm up while checking for abnormal noise. Make sure that the quantity of coolant is as specified by checking the level in the reserve tank.;

(1) With the clearance A between the lining and drum set approximately to specification, pull the cable with spring with a finger as shown. The lever should turn the adjusting screw wheel by one notch and, when the cable is released, return to the original position.

(2) If the lever fails, or is slow, to turn the adjusting screw wheel, check the position of the lever relative to the toothed wheel. The lever’s actuating tip should touch the toothed wheel at approximately 7 to 9 mm (0.28 to 0.35 in.) below the centerline of the screw. If the lever contact is out of the range, the lever will not correctly engage with the toothed wheel, therefore failing or slow to turn the wheel.

(3) If the automatic adjuster fails to operate correctly, take the following actions.

(a) Ensure that the adjusting spring is correctly hooked to the primary shoe.

(d) Replace the adjusting screw.

The following parts should be periodically changed as noted below.

These parts are made of materials which will deteriorate overtime. Further, it is difficult to determine visually whether or not they are still in good condition. Changing at proper intervals will reduce the risk of injury to the operator and damage to the truck.

Hydraulic Pump Inspection and Repair

(1) Check the gear teeth for wear, chipping or other defects.

(2) Check the side faces of the gears for wear or damage.

(3) Check the shafts for wear or damage.

Check these parts for wear or damage.

1. Second cylinder for simplex mast and triplex mast Inspection after disassembly

(1) Transmission oil level check

(a) Check the transmission fluid level with the level gauge.

(b) Start and run the engine at an idling speed for about 3 minutes, and then stop the engine.

(c) Wait for about 30 seconds after stopping the engine, and check the level.

(d) The checking procedure must be completed within 5 minutes after the engine has stopped.

(a) Warm up the engine to raise the temperature of the transmission oil.
