IMPORTANT: Be sure to always use the Komatsu genuine oil 'FG090' for the gear oil.

• Before starting bleeding air, adjust the brake shoe clearance to the specified 0.40 to 0.56 mm (diameter of the space).

• From time to time, refill the brake fluid to prevent the brake fluid in the reserve tank from empty for carrying out air bleeding. You should carry out the inspection again just from the beginning because air could be mixed in once the tank becomes empty.

1. Remove the cap from the air bleed plug (1) of the brake wheel cylinder. Install one end of a plastic hose for air bleeding to the plug and put the other end of the hose in a container of the brake fluid.

The color of the plastic hose should be transparent as much as possible.

2. If inspector is only one, connect a string or a wire to the upper arm of brake pedal (2) and let the other end of string or wire loose free in approximately 300 mm through the space between the frame (3) and the dashboard (4).

3. Slowly pull out the string or the wire connected with the brake pedal (2) arm from the front of the forklift so as to compress the air inside the brake piping and hold it as is.

If inspector is more than two, one inspector should press the brake pedal.

4. Loosen the air bleed plug (1) of the brake wheel cylinder approximately 3/4 turns to the left and depress the brake pedal to bleed the air in the piping along with the brake fluid. Then, tighten the bleed plug (1) while bleeding the brake fluid.

WARNING: Before starting maintenance of the engine, stop the engine and wait until cooling down completely
