c. Preparation for Disassembly


(1) Cleaning
Remove mud and dirt from the body before disassembly.

(2) Acceptance inspection


The machine must be checked before it is disassembled to record existing conditions, such as those
listed below.
Model, serial number, and hourmeter reading
• Reason for repair and repair history
• Element stains
• Fuel and oil condition
• Parts damage *(Take photographs if necessary.)

(3) Equipment and tools


Prepare equipment, tools, cranes and parts storage racks as required.

d. Precautions for Disassembly and Reassembly


(1) Disassembly
1. Follow the specified disassembly procedures.
2. Make alignment marks to insure correct reassembly.
3. Arrange disassembled parts in an orderly way, and attach identification tags or put marks if needed.

(2) Reassembly
1. Clean all parts before assembly. Repair any scratches or dents. Take special precautions against dirt
and dust.
2. Parts with rust-preventive coatings must be assembles only after removing the coating.
3. Separated parts must be correctly reassembled using alignment marks.
4. As a rule, use a press to reassembled bearings, bushing and oil seals. Use pads when using a ham-
mer.

e. Maintenance
CAUTION
When adding oil and servicing:
1. Park the machine on a large, flat place.
2. Place the bucket and dozer on the ground.
3. Stop the engine
4. Move the attachment control lever and dozer lever to make sure the remaining pressure is relieved.
5. Draw out the starter key and check around the machine for safety.
Before starting the job, carefully read the Operational Manual in " ! Servicing Precautions" on the yellow
pages.

f. Waste Disposal
WARNING
Do not carelessly throw away and burn waste materials. Such actions may lead to environmental pollu-
tion and punishment by local laws.
When disposing of waste:
* Let out waste fluid from the machine into a container.
* Do not let waste fluid flow on the ground as well as into a river, lake, marsh, and sea.
* Contact your dealer or a qualified industrial waste handler to treat (dispose of or incinerate) harmful
waste materials. Those materials include waste oil, fuel, cooling water (anti-freeze), coolant, solvent,
filters, batteries, rubber and other toxic substances.

C. IMPORTANT SAFETY PROCESS AND CRITICAL FUNCTIONAL PROCESS


The following instructions are related to essential adhesives, important safety process S and critical func-
tional process A . Pay special attention in servicing these process. (Pay also close attention in reconnecting
the electrical cables.)

1. Essential Adhesives
Screw adhesive type:
• Unless otherwise specified, use Three-Bond 1324 adhesive (medium-duty type).
Keep the screw threads free of oil and water.
Instantaneous adhesive:
• Use Three-Bond 1733 or Three-Bond 1741E adhesive.
Keep the bond areas free of oil and water.

2. Important Safety Process S


1. Reconnecting the fuel hose (clearance, hose routes, clamps, etc.)
2. Electrical cabling (engine, instrument panal, controls, etc.) (wiring routes, clamps and couplers)

3. Important Critical Functional Process A


1. Setting up the travel wheel motor (tightening torque)
2. Reassembling the rotary joints (joint direction and shaft set-up)
3. Installing the swivel base bearing and the swivel motor (tightening torque)
4. Fitting the pump couplings (tightening torque)

D. IMPORTANT INSPECTION ITEMS AFTER REASSEMBLING


1. Operate the Machine and Check for Unusual Noise and Vibrations.
2. Make Sure the Safety Decals and Wireharness Clamps Are in Their Specified Positions.
3. With the Machine Front in a Specified Posture, Check the Amount of Hydraulic Oil

Checking the oil level (For further datails, refer to the Operator’s Manual of each model.)
1) Park the machine on a level ground.
2) Make sure the hydraulic oil temperature is in the range of 10-30°C (50-86°F) and see if the oil level is
within the specified zone of the oil level gauge.
3) Extend the track cylinder to Max. position.
4) Keep the machine front as shown as following posture.

Posture:Extend the rods of the arm and bucket cylinders to max. Place the bucket link on the ground,
the offset swing at the center, and the dozer also on the ground.

a. Piping
(1) General precautions
• Tighten the pipe socket to the specified torque. If too tight, the socket itself or a hydraulic component
may get damaged. It too loose, an oil leak may result.
• In connecting a new hose or pipe, tighten its nut first to the specified torque and then turn it back (about
45°). Then tighten it again to the specified torque. (Do not this to the sealing tape-applied hose or pipe.)
• When disconnecting a vertical hose or pipe, separate its bottom connection first.
• In desconnecting and reconnecting the hose and pipe, be sure to use two wrenches. With one wrench,
restrain the mating part to allow no twist.
• Check the mating connector’s sleeve and the hose’s taper for dust deposits and scratches.
• When the pipe socket has been tightened up, wipe the joint clean. Apply the maximum operating pres-
sure 2 or 3 times to make sure there is no oil leak.

(2) Hydraulic hose


Check the hydraulic hose for too tight a connect or twist.
* Excessively tight contact
Let’s suppose that a hose is in contact with another hose or other part. If the hose is pulled away by a force
of 2 kg but still in contact, it means the contact is too tight.

I-S-9
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 I. GENERAL

(3) Precautions in tightening the bolts and nuts


• Use bolts of specified length.
• Do not over tighten the bolts: Its threads may get deformed or the fixed part may get damaged. Do not
undertighten the bolt either: It may get loose.
• In other words, tighten the bolt to the specified torque.
• Tighten the bolts and nuts diagonally for even tightness.

d. Hydraulic Oil Check for Machines with Hydraulic Breakers

The hydraulic oil change after 1000 operating hours in


the operator’s manual is based on the type of work
done. Following inspection measure are valid when
hydraulic breakers are used:
1. Changing and filling up of hydraulic oil
1) The hydraulic oil must be changed more often
when breakers are used because the machine is
subject to harder conditions than at normal
excavating work.
2) Use only the recommended oils mentioned in
the operator’s manual when changing or fill oil.
3) When filling up oil, never mix oils of different
makes.
2. Changing the return filter and oil
1) The filter must be changed more often because
of contamination resulting from the frequent
assembly and disassembly of the hoses.
2) Use the correct replacement filter.
3) Oil change according to operating hours.

(1) Drive unit Oil Change (First Oil Change of the 100 hours)
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
• Lower attachments on the ground, stop the engine and remove the key before undertaking the oil
change.

1) Rotate the crawler so that the drain plug of the


drive unit is in the bottom position.

2) Remove the drain plug to let the oil run out. Screw
in and tighten the drain plug again and fill with
gear oil through the oil check port.

3) Fill oil until it overflows out of the oil check port.


Gear oil volumes Approx. 0.25 L (0.07 USgal.)

Oil change
• first oil change after 100 hrs
• then every 500 hrs
• or at least once a year
(1) Oil check port (also serves as oil filling port)
4) Use prescribed gear oil SAE 90. (2) Drain plug

(2) Inspection and Cleaning of the Air Filter Element


Open the engine bonnet and remove the dust-cover. Take out only outer element, clean the element, case
interior and reassemble. During reassembly, take care to install the dust-cover so that its TOP mark (arrow)
faces up-wards. Do not remove the inner element.

IMPORTANT:
• Should the machine be used in extremely dusty areas, the air filter element must be inspected and
cleaned more frequently than in the specified maintenance periods.
• The air filter has a dry element, keep free from oil.
• Do not run the engine without the air filter.

(1) Outer element


(2) Inner element
(3) Dust-cover
(4) Clamps

I-S-21
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 I. GENERAL

CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
• Wear eye protection.

‹Cleaning with compressed air


Pressure of compressed air must be under 205 kPa
(2.1 kgf/cm2, 30 psi) and the cartridge should be
blown clean from the inside to the outside until the
dust deposits are remarkably reduced.

IMPORTANT:
• If the air suction is still inadequate, or the color of
the exhaust gases is abnormal even after the
cleaning, the air filter element must be replaced.

(3) Cleaning the Track Frame Slide Pipes


When the slide pipes of the track frame are clogged or adhered with soil or sand, clean the slide pipes in the
following manner according to need.

WARNING
To avoid the personal injury or death:
• Place the machine on even ground when cleaning the track frame slide pipes.

1. First lift the machine off the ground using the


dozer blade and boom functions.
2. Switch the track width change / dozer select lever
to the “Track width change” position.
3. Push the control lever forward, and expand the
track width to 1240 mm (48.8 in.).
4. Remove soil and sand adhered to the slide pipes,
then put grease evenly around the pipes. Make
sure all 4 slide pipes are greased.
5. Retract and expand the track width repeatedly for
a few times by moving the control lever, so that
the grease is spread adequately.
6. Switch the track width change / dozer select lever
to the “Dozer” position.
7. Place the machine down on the ground carefully (1) Track frame slide pipes
by moving the dozer blade and the boom.

g. Periodic Replacement of Important Component Parts


To ensure safety in operation, you are strongly requested to inspect and service the machine at regular inter-
vals. For added safety, ask your KUBOTA dealer to replace the following important component parts.
These parts are prone to degradation in material or subject to wear and tear with time. It is difficult to judge
how much they have been affected at regular inspection. It is therefore necessary to replace them with new
ones, whether wear is visible or not after a specified time of use.
If any of them is found worn even before the specified use, it must be repaired or replaced the same way as
other parts.
If any of the hose clamps is found deformed or cracked, the hose clamp must also be replaced.
For the hydraulic hoses other than the ones to be replaced periodically, inspect them for the following points.
If found unusual, tighten them up, replace them.
When replacing the hydraulic hoses, change their O rings and sealings with new ones.
For replacement of the important parts, contact your KUBOTA dealer.

• At the following periodic inspections, check the fuel hoses and hydraulic hoses as well.
Inspection Interval Check points
Daily Checks Oil leak at fuel and hydraulic hose connections and points
Every month Oil leak at fuel and hydraulic hose connections and points Damages at fuel and hydraulic hose
(cracks, chafing)
Every year Oil leak at fuel and hydraulic hose connections and points Interference, deformation, degrada-
tion, twist and other damages (cracks, chafing) of fuel and hydraulic hoses

The excavator as delivered may only transport materials in the bucket. The lifting of loads with
the bucket or any other means of attachment is not allowed. The excavator can be retrofitted for
lifting loads.

• 7KHOLIWLQJFRQGLWLRQVDUH

1. Over front end, dozer down, standard arm


2. Over front end, dozer up, standard arm
3. Over side, standard arm

Do not lift loads which exceed the values indicated in the lifting capacity tables.

The values given in the tables apply only to level and hard grounds. When working on soft
ground, the machine can tip over easily, as the load is concentrated on one side only and the
track or the dozer can dig into the ground.

The values given in the tables apply only for loads without bucket. If a bucket is used, the weight
of the bucket must be subtracted from the values in the tables. The weight of mounted
accessories (e.g. hydraulic hammer) must be subtracted from the lifting capacity.

When lifting loads using the excavator with a lifting capacity (acc. to ISO 10567:1992) of
more than 1000 kg or a tilting moment • 40,000 Nm, the excavator should be equipped
with additional devices as described in EN 474-5 / section 4.1.7.5.

(5)Measuring the swing bracket looseness


Set a dial gauge as shown below and note the height of the pointer. Lift the machine front until the swing
bracket tilts to maximum frontward. Now set the dial gauge reading to zero.
Next move the boom and arm until the swing bracket tilts to maximum backward. Now take the dial
gauge reading.
There is no specifications yet. This measuring method is just for your reference.

(6) Service tip to ease customer complain


Front sluggishness caused by pin-bushing worn-out largely depends on the following factors.

1. Maintenance: Daily maintenance, frequent applying of grease to renew, proper type of


grease.
2. Attachment installed: Weight of front attachment more than expected affects the excessive wear
of pin and bushing.
3. Application and operation:Heavy load digging operation and high rate of vibration work, such as
breaker also causes the abrasive wear than ordinary digging work.
4. Job site and storage: Dust, sand, moisture, salt or chemical acid accelerate the surface abrasive
and corrosion.
5. Total operation hours: Operating hour is the basic factor to evaluate the wear. Bushing wear-
curve is basically depended on the operation hours. And varies one by one
according to the ratio of operating condition, attachment weight, applica-
tion and maintenance level mentioned above.
6. Service limit: Allowable service limit to all pins and bushings is 1.0 mm (0.039 in) wear
from the new diameter size.

Tier 4 and Interim Tier 4 Engines for North American Market and Stage III A Engines for EU requirements
have been launched and mounted on Kubota Construction Machinery.

FEATURES and BENEFITS

Emissions
• Kubota Super Mini Series, the most compact multi-cylinder liquid cooled industrial diesel engines, com-
plies with EPA Tier 4 emissions regulations. These are the most stringent emissions regulations in the
world in this class.
• The 03-M Series engine complies with EPA Interim Tier 4 emissions regulations that are effective
through the end of 2012. This engine also complies with EU Stage III A requirements that are effective
through 2012 and beyond in the European market.

Durable Power
• The Kubota Super Mini Series has been chosen as a power source for a variety of applications since it
was first launched 25 years ago. It has become the benchmark in the compact diesel engine market.
• The D722 engine offers a seamless transition from Tier 2 to Tier 4 by totally maintaining the same perfor-
mance and physical characteristics of the previous Tier 2 engines.
• The Kubota 03-M Series is well recognized for industrial applications. With numerous features such as a
built-in solenoid, low fan position, and single side serviceability, this engine offers excellent performance
characteristics and application flexibility.
• The cooling water passages between the cylinder bores, using Kubota's original casting technology as a
countermeasure against heat load of high power density, provides both superior endurance and reliable
engine characteristics.
• The 03-M engine offers a seamless transition from Tier 2 to Interim Tier 4 by maintaining the same foot-
print and hard mounting points with only slight performance changes from the Tier 2 engine.

Clean and Quiet Power


• Kubota's original E-TVCS (Three Vortex Combustion System) has been improved. The airflow, combus-
tion chamber and piston recess were optimized to provide a 50% lower particulate matter (PM) level, the
same stringent level as above the 37kW class (EPA Interim Tier 4 Option 1).
• The half-float valve cover and MoS2 coated pistons lower noise levels by 1.0-2.0 dBA over conventional
diesel engines and provide reduced transmitted vibration from the valve area for better noise character-
istics.

This engine WSM has been compiled by Kubota Kikai Service Ltd. in Sakai and the
Engine Division. Kubota produces basic standard engine WSM per its series. Adding
this WSM to Construction Machinery WSM is to meet requests from the dealers in
overseas, which is required when they overhaul and assemble. Engine performance is
optimized for each use so that some main data, such as engine output, torque and RPM
may differ from basic specifications. About those main specifications, please refer to the
data regarding engine mounted construction machinery at the Chapter III.

Thank you for you understanding and corporation.

SM-E3B SERIES WSM SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY STARTING
• Do not start the engine by shorting across starter
terminals or bypassing the safety start switch.
• Unauthorized modifications to the engine may impair
the function and / or safety and affect engine life.

SAFETY WORKING
• Do not work on the machine while under the influence
of alcohol, medication, or other substances or while
fatigued.
• Wear close fitting clothing and safety equipment
appropriate to the job.
• Use tools appropriate to the work. Makeshift tools,
parts, and procedures are not recommended.
• When servicing is performed together by two or more
persons, take care to perform all work safely.
• Do not touch the rotating or hot parts while the engine
is running.
• Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is
running, or immediately after stopping. Otherwise, hot
water will spout out from radiator. Only remove
radiator cap when cool enough to touch with bare
hands. Slowly loosen the cap to first stop to relieve
pressure before removing completely.
• Escaping fluid (fuel or hydraulic oil) under pressure
can penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Relieve
pressure before disconnecting hydraulic or fuel lines.
Tighten all connections before applying pressure.
• Wear a suitable hearing protective device such as
earmuffs or earplugs to protect against objectionable
or uncomfortable loud noises.
• Do not open high-pressure fuel system.
High-pressure fluid remaining in fuel lines can cause
serious injury. Do not disconnect or attempt repair or
fuel lines, sensors, or any other components between
the high-pressure fuel pump and injectors on engines
with high pressure common rail fuel system.
• High voltage exceeding 100 V is generated in the
ECU, and is applied to the injector.
Pay sufficient caution to electric shock when
performing work activities.

2 KiSC issued 10, 2007 A


SM-E3B SERIES WSM SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

AVOID FIRES
• Fuel is extremely flammable and explosive under
certain conditions. Do not smoke or allow flames or
sparks in your working area.
• To avoid sparks from an accidental short circuit,
always disconnect the battery negative cable first and
connect it last.
• Battery gas can explode. Keep sparks and open
flame away from the top of battery, especially when
charging the battery.
• Make sure that no fuel has been spilled on the engine.

VENTILATE WORK AREA


• If the engine must be running to do some work, make
sure the area is well ventilated. Never run the engine
in a closed area. The exhaust gas contains poisonous
carbon monoxide.

DISPOSE OF FLUIDS PROPERLY


• Do not pour fluids into the ground, down a drain, or
into a stream, pond, or lake. Observe relevant
environmental protection regulations when disposing
of oil, fuel, coolant, electrolyte and other harmful
waste.

PREVENT ACID BURNS


• Sulfuric acid in battery electrolyte is poisonous. It is
strong enough to burn skin, clothing and cause
blindness if splashed into eyes. Keep electrolyte
away from eyes, hands and clothing. If you spill
electrolyte on yourself, flush with water, and get
medical attention immediately.

3 KiSC issued 10, 2007 A


SM-E3B SERIES WSM SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

PREPARE FOR EMERGENCIES


• Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy at all
times.
• Keep emergency numbers for doctors, ambulance
service, hospital and fire department near your
telephone.

[2] E3B ENGINE


[Example : Engine Model Name D902-E3B-XXXX]
The emission controls previously implemented in various countries to prevent air pollution will be stepped up as
Non-Road Emission Standards continue to change. The timing or applicable date of the specific Non-Road Emission
regulations depends on the engine output classification.
Over the past several years, Kubota has been supplying diesel engines that comply with regulations in the
respective countries affected by Non-Road Emission regulations. For Kubota Engines, E3B will be the designation
that identifies engine models affected by the next emission phase (See the table below).
When servicing or repairing ###-E3B series engines, use only replacement parts for that specific E3B engine,
designated by the appropriate E3B Kubota Parts List and perform all maintenance services listed in the appropriate
Kubota Operator's Manual or in the appropriate E3B Kubota Workshop Manual. Use of incorrect replacement parts
or replacement parts from other emission level engines (for example: E2B engines), may result in emission levels out
of compliance with the original E3B design and EPA or other applicable regulations.Please refer to the emission label
located on the engine head cover to identify Output classification and Emission Control Information. E3B engines are
identified with "ET" at the end of the Model designation, on the US EPA label. Please note : E3B is not marked on the
engine.

W1024941

• CJ-4 classification oil is intended for use in engines equipped with DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) and is
Not Recommended for use in Kubota E3 specification engines.
• Oil used in the engine should have API classification and Proper SAE Engine Oil Viscosity according to
the ambient temperatures where the engine is operated.
• With strict emission control regulations now in effect, the CF-4 and CG-4 engine oils have been developed
for use with low sulfur fuels, for On-Highway vehicle engines. When a Non-Road engine runs on high
sulfur fuel, it is advisable to use a "CF or better" classification engine oil with a high Total Base Number
(a minimum TBN of 10 is recommended).
Fuel :
• Cetane Rating : The minimum recommended Fuel Cetane Rating is 45. A cetane rating greater than 50 is
preferred, especially for ambient temperatures below −20 °C (−4 °F) or elevations above 1500 m (5000 ft).
• Diesel Fuel Specification Type and Sulfur Content % (ppm) used, must be compliant with all applicable
emission regulations for the area in which the engine is operated.
• Use of diesel fuel with sulfur content less than 0.10 % (1000 ppm) is strongly recommended.
• If high-sulfur fuel (sulfur content 0.50 % (5000 ppm) to 1.0 % (10000 ppm)) is used as a diesel fuel, change
the engine oil and oil filter at shorter intervals. (approximately half)
• DO NOT USE Fuels that have sulfur content greater than 1.0 % (10000 ppm).
• Diesel fuels specified to EN 590 or ASTM D975 are recommended.
• No.2-D is a distillate fuel of lower volatility for engines in industrial and heavy mobile service. (SAE J313
JUN87)
• Since KUBOTA diesel engines of less than 56 kW (75 hp) utilize EPA Tier 4 and Interim Tier 4 standards,
the use of low sulfur fuel or ultra low sulfur fuel is mandatory for these engines, when operated in US EPA
regulated areas. Therefore, please use No.2-D S500 or S15 diesel fuel as an alternative to No.2-D, and use
No.1-D S500 or S15 diesel fuel as an alternative to No.1-D for ambient temperatures below −10 °C (14 °F).

4. CHECK AND MAINTENANCE


[1] DAILY CHECK POINTS
Checking Engine Oil Level
1. Level the engine.
2. To check the oil level, draw out the dipstick (1), wipe it clean,
reinsert it, and draw it out again.
Check to see that the oil level lies between the two notches.
3. If the level is too low, add new oil to the specified level.
Q IMPORTANT
• When using an oil of different maker or viscosity from the
previous, drain old oil. Never mix two different types of oil.
Q NOTE
• Be sure to inspect the engine, locating it on a horizontal
place. If placed on gradients, accurately, oil quantity may
not be measured.
• Be sure to keep the oil level between upper and lower limits
of the dipstick. Too much oil may cause a drop in output or
excessive blow-by gas. On the closed breather type engine
in which mist is sucked through port, too much oil may
caused oil hammer. While too little oil, may seize the
engine’s rotating and sliding parts.

Checking and Replenish Coolant


1. Without recovery tank :
Remove the radiator cap (1) and check to see that the coolant
level is just below the port.
With recovery tank (2) :
Check to see that the coolant level lies between FULL (A) and
LOW (B).
2. If coolant level is too low, check the reason for decreasing
coolant.
(Case 1)
If coolant is decreasing by evaporation, replenish only fresh, soft
water.
(Case 2)
If coolant is decreasing by leak, replenish coolant of the same
manufacture and type in the specified mixture ratio (fresh, soft
water and L.L.C.). If the coolant brand cannot be identified, drain
out all of the remaining coolant and refill with a totally new brand
of coolant mix.

CAUTION
• Do not remove the radiator cap until coolant temperature is
below its boiling point. Then loosen the cap slightly to
relieve any excess pressure before removing the cap
completely.
Q IMPORTANT
• During filling the coolant, air must be vented from the engine
coolant passages. The air vents by jiggling the radiator
upper and lower hoses.
• Be sure to close the radiator cap securely. If the cap is loose
or improperly closed, coolant may leak out and the engine
could overheat.
• Do not use an antifreeze and scale inhibitor at the same time.
• Never mix the different type or brand of L.L.C..

Anti-Freeze
• There are two types of anti-freeze available: use the permanent
type (PT) for this engine.
• Before adding anti-freeze for the first time, clean the radiator
interior by pouring fresh, soft water and draining it a few times.
• The procedure for mixing water and anti-freeze differs according
to the maker of the anti-freeze and the ambient temperature.
Basically, it should be referred to SAE J1034 standard, more
specifically also to SAE J814c.
• Mix the anti-freeze with fresh, soft water, and then fill into the
radiator.
Q IMPORTANT
• When the anti-freeze is mixed with fresh, soft water, the anti-
freeze mixing ratio must be less than 50 %.

Recharging

CAUTION
• When the battery is being activated, hydrogen and oxygen
gases in the battery are extremely explosive. Keep open
sparks and flames away from the battery at all times,
especially when charging the battery.
• When charging battery, remove battery vent plugs.
• When disconnecting the cable from the battery, start with
the negative terminal first. When connecting the cable to the
battery, start with the positive terminal first.
• Never check battery charge by placing a metal object across
the posts.
Use a voltmeter or hydrometer.
1) Slow Charging
1. Add distilled water if the electrolyte level is low. When charging,
the amount of electrolyte should be slightly lower than the
specified level to prevent overflow.
2. Connect the battery to the charging unit, following the
manufacture’s instructions.
3. As the electrolyte generates gas while charging, remove all port
caps.
4. The electrolyte temperature must not exceed 40 °C (104 °F)
during charging.
If it exceed 40 °C (104 °F), decrease the charging amperage or
stop charging for a while.
5. When charging several batteries in series, charging at the rate of
the smallest battery in the line.
2) Quick Charging
1. Determine the proper charging current and charging time with the
tester attached to the quick charger.
2. Determine the proper charging current as 1/1 of the battery
capacity. If the battery capacity exceeds 50 Ah, consider 50 A as
the maximum.
Q Precaution for Operating a Quick Charger
• Operating with a quick charger differs according to the type.
Consult the instruction manual and use accordingly.

Battery Specific Gravity


1. Check the specific gravity of the electrolyte in each cell with a
hydrometer.
2. When the electrolyte temperature differs from that at which the
hydrometer was calibrated, correct the specific gravity reading
following the formula mentioned in (Reference).
3. If the specific gravity is less than 1.215 (after it is corrected for
temperature), charge or replace the battery.
4. If the specific gravity differs between any two cells by more than
0.05, replace the battery.
Q NOTE
• Hold the hydrometer tube vertical without removing it from
the electrolyte.
• Do not suck too much electrolyte into the tube.
• Allow the float to move freely and hold the hydrometer at eye
level.
• The hydrometer reading must be taken at the highest
electrolyte level.
(Reference)
• Specific gravity slightly varies with temperature. To be exact, the
specific gravity decreases by 0.0007 with an increase of 1 °C
(0.0004 with an increase of 1 °F) in temperature, and increases
by 0.0007 with a decreases of 1 °C (0.0004 with a decrease of 1
°F).
Therefore, using 20 °C (68 °F) as a reference, the specific gravity
reading must be corrected by the following formula :
- Specific gravity at 20 °C = Measured value + 0.0007 ×
(electrolyte temperature : 20 °C)
- Specific gravity at 68 °F = Measured value + 0.0004 ×

1. ENGINE BODY
[1] HALF-FLOATING HEAD COVER
The rubber packing is fitted in to maintain the cylinder
head cover 0.5 mm (0.02 in.) or so off the cylinder head.
This arrangement helps reduce noise coming from the
cylinder head.
(1) Cylinder Head Cover (2) Rubber Packing
W1013327

[2] CLOSED BREATHER


Closed breather system has been adopted to prevent
the release of blow-by gas into the atmosphere.
After its oil content is filtered by oil shield (4), the blow-
by gas is fed back to the intake manifold through breather
valve (3) to be used for re-combustion.
(1) Cylinder Head Cover (4) Oil Shield
(2) Breather Hose (5) Rubber Packing

SM-E3B SERIES WSM DIESEL ENGINE

[3] PISTON (Z602-E3B, D782-E3B, D902-E3B)


Piston’s skirt is coated with molybdenum
disulfide+, which reduces the piston slap noise and
thus the entire operating noise.

+Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)


The molybdenum disulfide (1) serves as a solid
lubricant, like a Graphite or Teflon. This material helps
resist metal wears even with little lube oil.
(1) Molybdenum Disulfide
W1013114

[4] OIL PAN (Z602-E3B, D902-E3B)


The oil pan is extended under the gear case.
Therefore, the height of the engine can be lowered more
than so far while securing a necessary amount of oil.

(2) Gear Case

2. COOLING SYSTEM
[1] COOLING FIN (Z602-E3B, D902-E3B)
The cooling fin is set up around the oil passage in the
gear case.
Therefore, the temperature of oil is decreased by the
wind generated by the cooling fan.

Q NOTE
• The liquid gasket is not required for assembling.
• Shims are available in thickness of 0.20 mm (0.0079 in.), 0.25
mm (0.0098 in.), 0.30 mm (0.012 in.), 0.35 mm (0.014 in.) and
0.175 mm (0.00689 in.). Combine these shims for
adjustments.
• Addition or reduction of shim (0.025 mm, 0.00098 in.) delays
or advances the injection timing by approx. 0.0044 rad
(0.25 °).
• In disassembling and replacing the injection pump, be sure
to use the same number of new shims with the same
thickness.
• The 0.175 mm (0.00689 in.) thick shim is coated only on the
lower face. Therefore, do not use the 0.175 mm (0.00689 in.)
thick shim as the top shim of the combination (injection
pump side), because this can cause oil leakage.
• Refer to figure of the shim to check the thickness of the
shims.
• The injection timing might be changed by the application.

CAUTION
• To avoid accidental short circuit, be sure to attach the positive cable to the positive terminal before the
negative cable is attached to the negative terminal.
• Never remove the battery cap while the engine is running.
• Keep electrolyte away from eyes, hands and clothes. If you are spattered with it, wash it away completely
with water immediately.
• Keep open sparks and flames away from the battery at all times. Hydrogen gas mixed with oxygen
becomes very explosive.
Q IMPORTANT
• If the machine is to be operated for a short time without battery (using a slave battery for starting), use
additional current (lights) while engine is running and insulate terminal of battery. If this advice is
disregarded, damage to alternator and regulator may result.

Battery Specific Gravity


1. Check the specific gravity of the electrolyte in each cell with a
hydrometer.
2. When the electrolyte temperature differs from that at which the
hydrometer was calibrated, correct the specific gravity reading
following the formula mentioned in (Reference).
3. If the specific gravity is less than 1.215 (after it is corrected for
temperature), charge or replace the battery.
4. If the specific gravity differs between any two cells by more than
0.05, replace the battery.
Q NOTE
• Hold the hydrometer tube vertical without removing it from
the electrolyte.
• Do not suck too much electrolyte into the tube.
• Allow the float to move freely and hold the hydrometer at eye
level.
• The hydrometer reading must be taken at the highest
electrolyte level.
(Reference)
• Specific gravity slightly varies with temperature. To be exact, the
specific gravity decreases by 0.0007 with an increase of 1 °C
(0.0004 with an increase of 1 °F) in temperature, and increases
by 0.0007 with a decreases of 1 °C (0.0004 with a decrease of 1
°F).
Therefore, using 20 °C (68 °F) as a reference, the specific gravity
reading must be corrected by the following formula :
- Specific gravity at 20 °C = Measured value + 0.0007 ×
(electrolyte temperature : 20 °C)
- Specific gravity at 68 °F = Measured value + 0.0004 ×
(electrolyte temperature : 68 °F)

8. Function
1) Outline
Discharge groove P2
This compact, lightweight hydraulic pump has a Suction groove (1)
mechanism that provides for the performance of Discharge groove P1
two variable pumps. Yet it needs as small a space Suction groove (2)
as for just one conventional pump. This pump is
also equipped with a pilot gear pump.
The pump features a constant horsepower control
function for making most of the engine power. The
greater the pump load becomes, the lesser the
discharge rate becomes. As a result, when the
pump discharge pressures P1 and P2 have risen
and the resultant force of the piston higher, the (a) Valve plate
swash plate exceeds the spring force and tilts
from the oscillating center of the oscillating pin. In Discharge groove
this way, the discharge rate can be kept low. P1 and opening Discharge groove
P2 and opening

2) Function
An even number of pistons are used in this swash
plate variable piston pump. This is to produce the
performance of two same-capacity pumps in one
pump casing.
Conventional valve plates have one suction
groove and one discharge groove, as shown in
Fig. 4. The new system, on the other hand, is pro-
vided with two suction grooves and two discharge
grooves, as shown in Fig. 3. The discharge (b) Cylinder barrel
grooves P1 and P2 are located in the outer and Fig. 3 Operating principle
inner sides, respectively. Every other piston cham-
ber of cylinder barrel gets open to either of these
discharge grooves in the valve plate. In other
words, both the inner and outer suction grooves
behave just the same way, whereas the inner and Suction groove
outer discharge grooves work independently from Discharge groove
each other.
In this design with an even number of pistons, the
same number of pistons gets open outward and
inward of the valve plate. Because all the pistons
are of the same diameter, located in a same-pitch
circle and slide over the same swash plate, the
discharge rates of the discharge grooves P1 and (a) Valve plate
P2 are the same.
There is another advantage in employing just a
single swash plate. Even though the swash plates
tilting angle varies according to the variable con-
trol, the discharge rates of P1 and P2 ports change
accordingly and equally.

9. Principle of horse power control


The constant horse power control mechanism of this pump is equipped with a swash plate. The swash
plate angle is variably controlled by a simple spring to directly adjust the pump capacity.
The swash plate turns itself around the ball located behind. The load F1 from the piston is applied in the
direction as shown in the figure, generating a clockwise moment with respect to the swash plate. Against
this force, the spring (spring force F2) is provided to have a constant horse power. A specified load is pre-
set.
As the pressure rises, the above-mentioned clockwise moment also increases. When this moment
exceeds the counterclockwise moment by the spring force, the spring gets activated to lessen the swash
plate angle and to reduce the discharge rate. In this way, the horse power can be kept at a constant level.
When the pressure P3 is exerted on the rod, the clockwise moment proportional to the pressure works on
the swash plate. As shown in the P-Q characteristic, therefore, a shift is made to keep the horse power
constant with the gear pump included. (Total horse power control mechanism)

1) Shaft output type
1. This type consists of ring 1, roller 2 and rotor (star) 3, as shown in the figure. The ring 1 is station-
ary, whereas the rotor (star) 3 turns under hydraulic pressure. The motor's output shaft is spline-
coupled with the rotor (star) 3. Hydraulic pressure is converted to a turning force in order to drive the
motor's shaft.

3) Oil flow & power transfer 1


Hydraulic oil flown in through the brake valve is fed to the valve housing ]. As hydraulic oil is fed to port
A, this hydraulic oil flows into an oil hole of the valve P corresponding to port A, passes through an oil
hole of the valve plate N, and enters the geroller W to turn it. The valve P is turned through the valve
drive X to change a positional relation between 12 holes of the valve P and 7 holes of the valve plate
N. Consequently, a positional relation of oil to flow to the geroller shifts one after another and is con-
verted to turning force which is taken off by the drive V spline coupled with the geroller W. This turning
force is further transmitted to a pinion 2 supported by two bearings.

4) Oil flow & power transfer 2


1 High-Pressure oil flown in the main port enters the rotor sub-assembly after passing through the
valve and valve plate. The rotor sub-assembly consists of a stator and a rotor while the stator has
seven rollers on its inner side is fixed to the housing. Besides, the inner rotor has six outer teeth.
Consequently, seven chambers form inside the rotor sub-assembly. And the rotor is made to be a
structure to make a planetary motion on the inner side of the stator.
2 On the other hand, the valve has oil holes at 12 spots, and high-pressure oil or return oil flows to half
the number of these oil holes at a time, respectively. Seven oil holes are opened in the valve plate
similar to the valve plate, and these oil holes are led to seven chambers of the rotor sub-assembly.
Consequently, contacting of seven oil holes of the valve plate with whatever of 12 oil holes of the
valve opens a line to the rotor sub-assembly.
3 The rotor of the rotor sub-assembly starts a planetary motion as depended on the hydraulic pressure
in this way and only the rotation found in planetary motion is taken out by the drive shaft to transmit
that rotation to the pinion. Besides, relation of the rotor is trasmitted to the valve drive shaft.
4 Rotating of the valve in this way shifts oil holes of the valve in contact with oil holes of the valve plate
one after another. Consequently, high-pressure oil to flow into the rotor sub-assembly also flows into
the different chambers one after another. In this way, the motor rotates continuously.

High-pressure oil flow The high-pressure oil coming in the motor flows through the disc
valve to the geroller, the star of which starts its planetary motion.
Lube oil flow Its own rotation alone is taken out by the main drive to drive the
Low-pressure oil flow output shaft. The disc valve is then driven by the disc drive. The
12 ports of the disc valve and the 7 ports of the valve plate shift
themselves to change the oil passage to the geroller in sequence.

1/7 Rotation

1/6 Rotation

With reference made to Fig. 1, as high-pressure oil is led to the respective chambers 2, 3 & 4, the rotor
rotates in the direction of arrow while touching the stator internally. Since the valve also rotates in keep-
ing with rotation of the rotor, a chamber to which high-pressure oil is led also shifts in the direction oppo-
site to arrow one after another. In Fig. 2, the rotor makes a 1/14 turn, and consequently, a chamber to
which high-pressure oil is led shifts to chambers 1, 7 & 6, one after another. Center point B of the rotor
shifts to point B’ around point A at this time and further shifts from point B’ to B” around point A in Fig. 3.
That is to say, the center point of the rotor makes a 6/7 turn from point B’ and then to point B” around
point A. In Fig. 4 furthermore, returning from point B” to point B’, a chamber to which high-pressure oil
flows in also makes a round. The dot-marked spot of the rotor makes a 1/6 turn at this time in the reverse
direction to the movement of point B. Therefore, one turn of the output shaft becomes 7 chambers × 6
rounds = 42 chambers and so achieved by inflow of high-pressure oil of 42-chamber volume.

High-low speed change: In this type, high-low speed can be controlled by delivery oil amount.

(Additional explanation to understand the theory)


1) High pressure inlets from port B is indicated by arrow and the hatched zones which are total six in View

2) In View B, only three high pressure ports which are the hatched zones are overlapped with valve ports
which are total seven.
Shape of valve port is .
3) In View C, only three high pressure ports deliver oil into the three rotor chambers.
These three high pressure oil generate the rotating torque to the rotor as shown in View C.
4) In case of turning the valve clockwise by 15°, pressure ports and chambers are changed to reverse rota-
tion.

(2) Hydraulic motor


1) Function of motor
The hydraulic motor, which is an axial piston motor (rotating cylinder and swash plate type), converts
the hydraulic energy supplied from the pump to revolving movement.
2) Structure of motor and operating principle (See the figure below.)

(4) Cylinder barrel (a) The motor shaft and gear S2 are combined or coupled through splines
(5) Valve plate (b) Port A
(6) Piston (c) Port B
(7) Swash plate
(8) Shaft

The pressure oil flowing in through the hydraulic valve is supplied to the valve plate (5). When the
pressure oil is supplied to the port A, the oil flows into the cylinder port, which corresponds to the port
A, in the cylinder barrel (4) and presses the piston (6). This pressing force is converted to turning
force through the swash plate (7) and the resulting turning force is transmitted to the shaft (3) spline-
coupled with the cylinder barrel (4). The return oil in the cylinder port flows out through the port B of
the valve plate (5).
In the case of reverse rotation, the pressure oil flows in through the port B and flows out through the
port A.

IV-M-37
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Mechanism IV. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

3) Operating principle of two-speed motor


The swash plate has two faces I and II on the surface opposite to the shoe-sliding surface and sup-
ported by the two balls fixed in the body 2.
The ball is positioned eccentrically above the central axis. In the 1st speed state, therefore, the face
II is pressed against the body 2 by hydraulic oil force applied to the piston and the spring force in the
cylinder barrel and the swash plate angle becomes α. At this time, the motor is of large capacity.
When the speed selector lever is switched to the 2nd speed position, the operating pressure is con-
ducted through the two-speed spool to the control room and the control piston moves until the face II
of the swash plate touches the body 2, fixing the swash plate angle at β. At this time, the motor is of
small capacity.
When the engine is stopped, the control room is connected to the drain port through the two-speed
spool and the swash plate is returned to the 1st speed position by the spring force. At the time of
starting, therefore, the motor is always in the 1st speed state.

WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Mechanism IV. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

(3) Hydraulic valve (counter balance valve)


When the pressure oil is supplied through the port A, the pressure oil pushes open the check valve (3)
and flows into the inlet-side port A’ of the hydraulic motor. At the same time, the pressure oil flows
through the choke hole C into the room D and slides the spool valve (2) to the right, overcoming the force
of spring (4). As a result, the hydraulic motor return oil flows in through the port B’, passes through the
opening E of the main body (1) and spool valve (2) and returns to the port B. These processes make the
hydraulic motor rotate. When the pressure oil is supplied through the port B, the above-mentioned pro-
cesses are reversed and the hydraulic motor rotates reversely.
When the pressure oil supplied through the port A is made unpressurized, the spring force works to
return the spool valve to the left. At this time, the oil in the room D controls the speed at which the spool
valve returns to the left, utilizing the choking effect of the choke hole C. Even if the pressure oil supplied
through the port A is made unpressurized, the hydraulic motor continues rotating using an inertial force.
At this time, the return oil is gradually controlled through the sliding speed of the spool valve and the
helix shape, thus stopping the hydraulic motor smoothly.

WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Mechanism IV. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

(5) Reducer
1) Function
The PHV series travelling motor reducer, which is a simple two-step planetary gear reducer, converts
the high-speed revolution of the hydraulic motor to low-speed high torque to obtain case rotation.
2) Description of operation
In the figure shown to the right, the gear S2 is
spline-coupled with the hydraulic motor output (1) (2)
shaft (or they are combined). The revolution of
the gear S2 is single-reduced through the
gears (S2, b2, a2). This single-reduced revo-
lution is double-reduced through the gears
(S1, b1, a1) spline-coupled with the carrier 2.
The reduced revolution is transmitted to the
rotating main body through the annular gears
a1 and a2, providing travelling driving force. (4)
The reduction ratio of a simple two-step plane-
tary gear reducer is generally expressed as
shown below.

4. Function

1) Basic function
The pilot valve is intended to control the stroke and direction of the control valve spool. To do this, the
output pressure of the pilot valve is applied to the end of the control valve spool.
To achieve this function, the pilot valve consists of the following elements.
(1) Inlet port (P) used to supply oil from the hydraulic pump
(2) Multiple outlet ports (1, 2, 3 and 4) used to apply the feed pressure of the inlet port to the end of the
control valve spool.
(3) Tank port (T) required to control the output pressure discussed above
(4) Spool used to connect the output ports to the inlet port or tank port
(5) Mechanism (including the spring for the above spool) used to control the output pressure

2) Functions of major parts


The spool (201) is designed to switch between two oil passages: one passage is for the pressure oil from
the hydraulic pump to go to the port P first and then to the output ports (1, 2, 3 and 4). The other is for the
pressure oil to go from the output port to the port T. The secondary pressure setting spring (241) exerts
upon this spool (201) to determine the output pressure.
The push rod (212) is integrated in the plug (211) and ready to slide to change the deflection of the sec-
ondary pressure setting spring (241).
The return spring (221) exerts upon the casing (101) and spring seat (216) to keep the push rod (212)
free of the output pressure and pressed in the zero-displacement direction. This ensures the neutral
return of the spool (201). This spring serves also as reaction spring to give the operator proper operating
feel.

IV-M-46
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Mechanism IV. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

3) Operation
The behavior of the pilot valve is discussed, referring to the hydraulic circuit diagram (Fig. 1) and behav-
ior diagrams (Figs. 2, 3 and 4). Fig. 1 shows a typical application of the pilot valve.

(1) With the lever at neutral (See Fig. 2.)


The secondary pressure setting spring (241),
which determines the pilot valve output pres-
sure, does not exert upon the spool (201). The
spool (201) is therefore pressed down by the
return spring (221) (spring seat (216)), which
interconnects the output ports (2 and 4) and
the port T. In this state, the output pressure is
kept at the same level as the tank pressure.

IV-M-47
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Mechanism IV. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

(2) With the lever being tilted (See Fig. 3.)


When the lever is tilted and the push rod (212)
gives a stroke, the spool (201) (spring seat
(216)) lowers, which interconnects the port P
and output ports (2 and 4). In this state, the oil
from the pilot pump flows to the ports (2 and 4)
and produces a pressure.

(3) With the lever held tilted (See Fig. 4.)


When the pressure at the ports (2 and 4) has
reached the level that corresponds to the force
of the spring (241), then the oil pressure and
spring force get balanced. When the pressure
at the ports (2 and 4) has risen above the set
level, the ports (2 and 4) and port P get closed,
whereas the ports (2 and 4) and port T get
open. When this pressure has dropped below
the set level, the ports (2 and 4) and port P get
open, whereas the ports (2 and 4) and port T
get closed.

(4) With the lever too tilted (depending on the model)


On some models, if the lever is tilted beyond a certain angle, the spool top end comes in contact with
the push rod bottom. This means that the output pressure is being applied to the port P.
In another construction, the spring and its seat are integrated in the push rod. If the lever is tilted
beyond a certain angle, the spring comes in contact with the push rod bottom. The spring force in
turn affects the secondary pressure gradient. Then there will be contact between the push rod bot-
tom and the spring seat top end, which keeps the output pressure applied to the port P.

on the control valve.
When the breaker will be used, position the
lever of selection valve to the "OPENED"
position (1-way circuit) to reduce the back
pressure.

IMPORTANT:
• When the equipment (auger, crusher,
telescopic arm, ...), which need 2-way cir-
cuit will be used, position the lever to the
"CLOSED" position.

Return change-over valve (1-2-way valve)

The change-over valve has two settings.

When "direct return flow" (3) is enabled, the return flow


is directed from the implement to the hydraulic oil tank.
The return flow is via the right port at the arm only.

When "indirect return flow" (2) is enabled, the return


flow is directed from the implement to the hydraulic oil
tank via the control valve. In that case, the return flow
may use the left or right port on the arm (depending on
the service port pedal position).

Move the change-over valve (1) to the required position


as shown on the sticker (see figure), depending on the
action of the implement being used (rotary or hammer-
ing).

2. Open the tester’s loading valve. Start the
engine.
3. Set the engine to the maximum rpm.
4. Gradually close the loading valve. Apply the

Notes:
1. The pump’s volumetric efficiency is proportional
to the pump rpm and inversely proportional to
the load pressure. During the test, keep the
engine at its maximum rpm.
2. The volumetric efficiency is the ratio of the
discharge rate per pump turn (cc/rev) to the
theoretical discharge rate (calculated value). The
main relief set pressure is used as the rated load.
3. The discharge rate under rated load must be
converted to that per pump turn. This is because

4) FYI (For your information)

Testing boom-up overload relief pressure

a. Symptoms Found
1. A boom-up overload relief pressure value shows lower than its bench test pressure value when you
test the pressure in light of the foregoing description.
2. Max. boom-up overload relief pressure value comes not at max. engine speed but around 1500 ~
2000 rpm.
These two symptoms are peculiar to U17/U17-3 and KX41-3, which hydraulic circuit diagrams are con-
sist of P1 and P3 confluence flow and bleed-off control valves of boom-up line.

b. Reason Found
Followings are the study result based on the machine test.
1. Why is the max. boom-up overload pressure lower than its bench pressure value?
Because: 1) Boom-up circuit has two pump lines, P1 and P3.
Additionally bleed-off orifice is incorporated inside the spool.
At engine max. speed, P3 main line reaches to its relief pressure condition.
Due to a horse power control system with variable displacement pump and bleed-off line, an
oil flow amount into boom-up circuit decreases and thus overload relief pressure value
becomes lower than the bench test pressure.
2) Following graphs show this symptom.
Graph C: Boom overload relief pressure
Graph D: Max. boom-up pressure
Graph E: P3 pressure indicates this fact.
In this graph, why is P3 pressure decreases at boom-up operation?
Because P3 pump is a gear pump and this confluence circuit has bleed-off orifice
also.
The lower the pump flow, the greater the bleed-off function and thus P3 line pres-
sure decreases.
Then horse power control system recover its swash plate angle to supply enough
oil to the boom-up circuit.
2. Why does the boom-up overload relief pressure become higher at 1500 ~ 2000 rpm than at its max
engine speed?
Because: 1) At engine max. speed, P3 pump main line reaches to its relief pressure and the pump swash
plate returns to minimum displacement position when pump 1 being applied by its max.
relief pressure.
On the contrary, at engine 's lower speed, P3 pump main line does not reach its max. pres-
sure.
See graph “E... P3 pressure”.
Therefore, due to its horsepower control system, pump swash plate angle still keep positive
to provide some amount of oil flow to boom-up circuit.
Additionally, engine's torque stays its highest conditions even at 1500 ~ 2000 rpm.

This theoretical description can be supported by the test result of “G. Boom-up overload
relief pressure vs RPM at P3 line” is dumped to tank.
As P3 line is dumped to tank, P3 pump has no load and engine and pump has enough
horsepower to keep the swash plate positive condition to supply enough oil to boom-up cir-
cuit.

In order to understand above explanation, you're requested to refer to P-Q performance


curb in WSM.

3. How can boom-up overload relief pressure be inspected then?


Answer: Fortunately you can exchange boom-up overload relief valve and bucket crowd overload relief
valve and function the bucket crowd, then you can obtain exact value as you expected as
shown in Graph G. that we confirmed. Of course, you are required to increase main relief pres-
sure up to around 30 MPa (3060 kgf/cm2, 4352 psi).

and pay utmost attention to keep the parts free of dust sticking or contamination at the time of assem-
bly and protect each sliding part free of damage. The following section provides the important points of
assembly.
• Apply a little amount of grease to the circumference of the O-ring attached to the spigot section for the
prevention of damage.

1. Insert the oil seal to the body.


Apply a little grease to the rip and peripheral of
the oil seal, use the dedicated jig shown below,
and rap the oil seal with a hammer. (Take this
step only after the oil seal is replaced.)

2. Fitting the cylinder barrel kit
Install the retainer (24), spring C (14), retainer
(24) and snap ring (33) in this order to the cen-
ter opening of cylinder barrel (4). To the other
end, fit the shoe holder (8) carefully in place,
which has the needle (11), barrel holder (9) and
ten piston shoe assemblies incorporated.

3. Fitting the stopper pin A and B kits (1) (5)


Install the two pan-shaped springs (33) to the
stopper pin A (25) to make the stopper pin A kit.
Similarly, install the two pan-shaped springs
(2) (6)
(33) to the stopper pin B (26) to make the stop-
(3) (7)
per pin B kit. (4) (8)

1) Disassembling
Precautions (Observe for Safety)

• Disassembly Precautions
The product is disassembled and assembled in the manufacturer's factory, in principle. If the user is
under the necessity of disassembling or assembling the product, strictly observe the following precau-
tions in a factory that has sufficient hydraulic equipment technology.

1. All the hydraulic equipment is highly precisely processed with a minute clearance between adjacent
blocks. Select an especially clean place and carefully disassemble or assemble the equipment so
that the equipment will be free of dust, earth, or sand.

2. Before the disassembly, prepare a valve structure drawing and fully familiarize yourself with the
structure.

3. At the time of removing the control valve from the equipment, provide a dustproof cap to each port.
Before disassembling the equipment, recheck that the port is covered with the cap. Then wash the
exterior of the control valve assembly.
Work on an appropriate workbench, putting a clean sheet of paper or rubber mat thereon.

4. If the equipment is left disassembled, be sure to apply antirust oil and seal the equipment so as to
prevent the equipment from corrosion.

5. Handle the control valve with care while carrying or moving it, and do not hold the exposed part of
the lever spool or relief.

6. Never rap the equipment if the equipment does not move smoothly.

7. After disassembling and assembling the equipment, it is desirable to conduct a variety of tests
including relief setting, leak, and flow resistance tests. Hydraulic pressure test equipment is required
for the tests.
Do not disassemble the following parts but replace the whole assemblies though it is possible to take
them apart technically, because it is difficult to test and adjust them.

• Main relief valve


• Overload relief valve (Overload valve)
• Anti-cavitation valve

3) Reassembling
Precautions (Observe for Safety)

• Assembly Precautions

• Uneven tightening torque or internal dust contamination at the time of assembly may result in malfunc-
tions.

• Check the number of parts and compare the parts with the valve structure drawing at the time of
assembly so as to prevent mistakes in assembly or missing parts.

• Carefully clean the assembly parts with wash oil and dry them, and soak the parts in operating oil
before assembling them.

• Before applying LockTight, clean and degrease the applicable area, i.e., two screw threads. Do not
apply LockTight excessively or otherwise it will run off the edge and may result in operational failures.

• Precautions for Assembling Seal Parts

• In principle, do not reuse the O-rings or backup rings. Replace them with new ones.

• When assembling the O-rings, apply operating oil or grease to the O-rings and mounting parts to
ensure smooth lubrication.
Do not apply operating oil or grease to the O-rings mounted between any of the mating sides of adja-
cent main parts (supply, swivel, arm, travel, dozer, breaker, swing, boom, and bucket parts).
Carefully handle the O-rings at the time of assembly so that the O-rings will not break or receive dam-
age.

• Required Assembly Tools

• Use the necessary tools specified at the time of assembly.

WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Service IV. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

4) Assembly Procedure for Each Part

1. Main Part
a) Lay out each main part in assembly order with the mating sides facing upward.
Mount the O-rings between the mating sides of the adjacent main parts. Do not apply operating
oil or grease to the O-rings at that time, or otherwise the operating oil or grease will run off the
edges and it will be misconceived as oil leakage.
The assembly order and the O-rings to be used are shown in the next page.
The sizes of the O-rings to be used are specified in the respective structure drawings as well.
b) Prepare an object with a flat surface, such as a level block, locate each main part in the order
shown in a) on the surface with the actuator port facing downward.
Make sure that each mating side is free of dust and that the O-rings are mounted securely.
c) Insert the three M8 mounting bolts from the side and lightly secure the bolts with the M8 nuts. At
that time, use an appropriate tool, such as a plastic hammer, and lightly hit each main part so that
the ports of the respective main parts will be aligned. Then tighten each nut while applying a 13-
mm spanner to the other side so as to prevent the other side from turning.
Do not apply the specified torque at a time. Tighten the nuts little by little in turn so that the three
nuts will be tightened evenly. Unless the specified torque is applied, the main parts may deform
or oil leakage may result.

• M8 nut tightening torque

5) Maintenance Standards
The following section provides the replacement intervals of parts required and replacement methods in
cases other than overhauls due to machine trouble.

1. Spool Seal (O-ring and Backup Ring)


a) It is recommended to replace the parts with new ones once a year. The parts can be used longer
than usual according to the operating conditions (e.g., the amount of dust on the spool) and operat-
ing frequency.
b) If the parts are stored for a long time (e.g., six months or more) before the parts are mounted to the
valve in actual use, the spool seal may deform or adhere to the spool. In that case, it is recom-
mended to replace the spool seal with a new one.

2. Spool
a) The spool does not need to be replaced unless one of the following occurs: The sliding part is dam-
aged by foreign substances contained in the operating oil; the spool is bent due to unexpected force
applied to the link mounting part; the spool is broken.

3. Load Check Valve


a) If the seat should have flaw damage or defects because the seat bites foreign substances contained
in the operating oil, the body seat made of cast metal needs to be replaced.
The check valve needs to be replaced if it has flaw damage.
b) It is recommended to replace the O-ring on the plug with a new one when the plug is once disassem-
bled.

4. Relief Valve
a) If the set value drops or an abnormal pressure occurs while the relief valve is in used, the relief valve
needs a resetting. If the value does not return to normal, replace the cartridge.

5. Overload Valve
a) If the seat should have flaw damage or defects because the seat bites foreign substances contained
in the operating oil, the body seat made of cast metal needs to be replaced.
If the seat on the overload valve has flaw damage, the cartridge needs to be replaced.

6. Anti-cavitation Valve
a) If the seat should have flaw damage or defects because the seat bites foreign substances contained
in the operating oil, the body seat made of cast metal needs to be replaced.
If the seat on the anti-cavity valve has flaw damage, the cartridge needs to be replaced.

7. O-ring Replacement
a) When assembling the parts (e.g., the relief valve, overload valve, anti-cavity valve, and a variety of
plugs) once disassembled, it is recommended to replace the existing O-rings with new ones.
b) Replace the O-rings for the mating sides of the respective parts disassembled with new ones.

(4)Function
The behavior of the pilot valve is discussed, referring to the hydraulic circuit diagram (Fig. 1) and behavior
explanations (Figs. 2 thru 4). Fig. 1 shows a typical pilot valve circuit.

(2) Pilot pump
(3) Main pump
(4) Control valve
(5) Hydraulic motor
(6) Hydraulic cylinder

Fig. 1 Pilot valve circuit


1. Handle at neutral position (See Fig. 2.)
The secondary pressure setting spring (241) that
determines the pilot valve output pressure is not work-
ing on the spool (201). The spool (201) is therefore
pushed up by the return spring (221) (spring seat
(216)). This makes for a passage through the output
216 ports (2, 4) and port T. Finally the output pressure
241 becomes the same as the tank pressure.
221 2. Handle tilted down (See Fig. 3.)
201 When the handle gets tilted down and the push rod
(212) moves through its stroke, the spool (201) (spring
Ports (2, 4)
seat (216)) shifts down to make for a passage through
Fig. 2 Handle at neutral position the port P and ports (2, 4). Now the oil being fed from
the pilot pump flows into the ports (2, 4), generating a
pressure.
3. Handle being held (See Fig. 4.)
When the pressure at ports (2, 4) has reached the
212 level that corresponds to the force of spring (241) with
the handle tilted down, the hydraulic pressure and the
spring force get balanced with each other. If the pres-
216
sure at ports (2, 4) rises above its setting, the ports (2,
4) come shut against the port P and open to the port T.
201
If the pressure at ports (2, 4) drops below its setting,
the ports (2, 4) come open to the port P and shut
Ports (2, 4) against the port T. In this way, the secondary pressure
Fig. 3 Handle tilted down is kept constant.
4. Behavior with the handle tilted more (different from
model to model)
On some models, if the handle is tilted deeper than a
certain angle, the spool's top end comes into the push
rod's internal bottom. The output pressure is thus
applied at the port P.
In the construction in which the push rod is equipped
internally with the spring seat and spring, a deeper tilt
241
of the handle brings the push rod's internal bottom in
(7) contact with the spring. Such spring force affects the
(7) Port T secondary pressure curve, which makes the push

3) Disassembling
1. Preparations
(1) Prepare a workbench that is spacious enough for the parts handled and strong and stable
enough to keep the parts in place.
(2) Also have the tools and jigs, at hand.
2. General precautions
(1) The parts are precision-machined. Handle them with enough care not to hit them against each
other or drop them.
(2) Even if any part is hard to remove, do not strike it out or pry out forcibly. Such handling may
cause burrs or damages, which may invite oil leak or poor performance later. Try to do the job
with patience.
(3) Do not leave the taken-out or exposed parts unprotected. Moisture or dust may get stuck on
them, causing rust. If unavoidably the job is interrupted halfway, be careful to protect such parts
against rust and dust.

Clean up the parts.


1) Put the parts one by one in a rough-washing container
with kerosene. (Rough washing)
2) Put the parts one by one in a finish-washing container
with kerosene. Slowly turn them and wipe them clean
thoroughly inside and out. (Finish washing)
Using clean waste cloth, wipe kerosene away from the
parts.

Keep the parts against rust.


Apply rust-preventive to the specified parts.

Note:
• Do not wipe dirty parts in kerosene from the beginning
because otherwise they might get scratched. Keep
them dipped until dirt, fat and grease become loose
enough off the parts.
• Keep the kerosene clean enough. Otherwise the parts
may get scratched, leading to poor performance when
reassembled.
• Do not dry up the parts with compressed air. Dust and
moisture in the air may damage the parts or get them
rusty later.
• Do not leave the parts without rust-preventive. Rust
may build up, causing malfunction later.

4) Assembling
1. Preparations
(1) As in the case of reassembling, prepare the specified workbench, tools and materials.
2. General precautions
(1) Take the same general precautions as in disassembling.
(2) Before reassembling, remove metal chippings and foreign matters from all the parts. Make sure
the parts are free of burrs, hit marks and other problems. If a burr or hit mark is found, get rid of it
with an oilstone.
(3) In principle, replace the O-rings and backup rings with new ones.
(4) When fitting the O-rings and backup rings, handle them with care not to damage it. (Apply a small
amount of grease for smooth fitting.)
(5) When fitting the parts in place, preferably use grease to avoid accidental drop.
(6) Tighten the bolts and the like to the their specified torques listed in each reassembling procedure.
Measure the tightening torques with a torque wrench.
(7) Finally apply blind plugs to all the open ports to avoid entry of dust.

Reversed motor valve timing Change the valve timing.


Oil leakage Bolt or plug loosening Tighten the bolt and plug to correct torque.

O-ring flaw damage or abrasion Replace the O-ring.

X-ring flaw damage or abrasion Replace the X-ring.


Drop the drain pressure to the permissible range.
Abnormal noise Residual air in circuit and motor Completely purge the air.

Pump cavitation Clean the clogged suction filter. Increase the suc-
tion pipe diameter of the pump.
Increase the boost pressure of the pump.

Caution:
The life of the motor is considered to have expired in the following cases.
The torque and revolutions are reduced.
The noise increases.
In the above cases, it is recommended to repair or replace the motor. Contact your Kubota representative for

KICS control system functions and menus of U17-3α,
U17/U17-3 are all identical with KX41-3.
As shown in the photo left, the model name KX41-3 will
be indicated on the panel screen when you turn the key
to run position while pushing on the display selector
switch.
This is exactly what the U17-3α and U17/U17-3 are
made.
In the service mode also, when ‘machine set up’ menu
to be processed, select the machine model of KX41-3.

B. KUBOTA INTELLIGENT CONTROL SYSTEM (KICS)


a. Features of Digital Meter
(1) Advanced performance:
• Digital display: Eleven multi-language for EU-version
English and French for KCL-version
English only for KTC, KTA-version
• Display icon and alarm sound for the warning on machine conditions and indication of maintenance
items.
• Machine operational and performance set-up procedures are incorporated.
• Max. flow amount of S/P1 can be adjustable according to the meter panel display.
• Display of anti-theft system is incorporated and programmed in collaboration with anti-theft controller
and antenna unit.
(2) Functions in a Wide Variety
1. Warning and self-diagnostic functions:
The following items are displayed on the LCD with graphics, failure (warning) numbers, and char-
acters along with an alarm sound.
• Remaining fuel (see fig. 3 on the right-hand side)
• Oil pressure (see fig. 4 on the right-hand side)
• Charge (see fig. 5 on the right-hand side)
• Overvoltage
• Overheating
2. Inspection time instruction function:
"SERVICE HOURS" appears whenever the time has come for the inspection and replacement of
the oil filter as explained in the manual, and prompts the user to make an inspection.
3. Fuel replenishment assist function:
The meter beeps intermittently at the time of fuel replenishment, and the interval between beeps
is shortened when the tank is almost filled to prevent the fuel from overflowing.
The beep functions with the key turned OFF, but one of the switch needs to be pressed.
4. Service tester function:
This function allows the monitoring of the operation of electrical devices (e.g., an oil pressure
switch) connected to the meter and provides the history of failures resulted in the past (see figs. 6
and 7 on the right-hand side).
While in harness manipulation mode, it is possible to diagnose and single out harness compo-
nents that have internal failures (e.g., contact failures).
5. Other functions
• Low t ravel speed reset at the time of restarting the engine (if the engine is turned OFF with
high - low switch set to the high range).
• Engine start check (preventing the engine from starting with the lever unlocked).
• Starter motor automatic disconnection Auto release
• Auto glow, auto intake heater (KX080-3)
• Built-in hour meter and display
• Built-in tachometer and display
6. Expansion function for this minor change :
• Monitoring with theft prevention set up
• Service port (thumb) hand-held proportional control (S/P 1)
• Air-conditioner idling control
• Auto idling
• Service port control ON-OFF switch

disabled until the engine gets started. When the engine rpm has reached 800 rpm, the display changes
itself as shown below, enabling to select on the menu. This is to avoid troubles that would be caused by
making AI or S/P settings without running the engine.

Here, information on the model and the country of manufacturer is selected.


By selecting the country of manufacturer, European specifications and North American specifications are
distinguished.
(If AI optional specifications are provided, the selection of AI as an optional item will appear as well.)

In default condition, Overheat warning is OFF for North America and Oceania - version
and ON for EU - version.

3-9 Simple mode set-up


Simple-mode settings can be made by selecting Set up, Engine start, Set up machine, and Simple mode.

While in simple mode, the output will be turned OFF when the fail-safe function is activated, but no mes-
sages will be output. The fuel replenish mode will not be available.
No messages for failures including engine oil failures will be output while in simple mode. In this case, the
hour meter cannot be switched over to the tachometer while in normal mode. Therefore, only the hour meter
will be displayed. The reason is that the tachometer does not display the engine oil icon.
This meter is used for the U-50-3 meter for China, but the U-50-3 meter for China is shipped with a factory
setting made to simple mode. But currently, this simple mode is not used even for chinese market.

3-18 Service hour meter


A service maintenance message will appear when the preset hour meter item is activated.
The message will disappear in 10 seconds. Hereafter, whenever the key is turned OFF and ON, the mes-
sage will appear for the first 10 seconds.
There are two modes (i.e., auto mode and manual mode) to turn OFF the inspection icon perfectly, either of
which is selectable by the user's settings.
While the system is in auto mode, the icon will disappear when the key is turned OFF and ON 10 times in
total. Then icon will not appear again with the key further pressed. This is convenient because the icon will
disappear only with the key turned OFF and ON, in which case the actual maintenance of the equipment will
be up to the user's choice.
While in manual mode, the icon will disappear with the working lamp pressed continuously for 3 seconds. In
this case, the message will be eliminated after the user's maintenance work. Therefore, the problem of the
careless omission of maintenance will be prevented. This method is, however, complicated. Therefore, it is
necessary for each dealer to make maintenance management.
When all the described inspection items in the Operation Manual are considered, a message will be dis-
played at 50-hour intervals, which is not so meaningful. In view of the foregoing, important items (e.g., items
related to the engine oil, operating oil, air filter, and engine oil filter) should be targeted so that a message
will appear in the case of maintenance necessity for any of these items. The meter with North American
specifications and that with European specifications share the same software, but the timing of maintenance
varies with the specifications and the size of the system. Therefore, the displayed frequency of each item is
changed according to the specifications. Fig. 2 shows an example of the display of the KX41-3, KX71-3 and
super series models with North American specifications.
Usually, the service hour meter advances in synchronization with the hour meter, thus causing no problems.
If the hour meter is replaced, however, the new hour meter will start with zero hour. In that case, the service
hour meter will be asynchronous. Due to ethics reasons, the system cannot incorporate functions that allow
the alternation of the hour meter. There are, however, no problems in altering the service hour meter. There-
fore, items that can be input for the service hour meter have been prepared.

But from the view point of service of maintenance policy in EU market, this deletion method should be announeed
only to the dealers but not to the customers.

In case a meter panel were replaced due to any trouble with it, the service hour meter is set to "0". Contact your
KUBOTA dealer for details.

3-24 Fuel amount control


1. Outline
A map indicating the voltage and fuel relationship has been prepared by plotting each determined input
voltage based on the float position of the fuel sensor and the remaining fuel.
The power supply voltage (5 V) is input into the microcomputer according to the partial voltage varied
with the float position. Therefore, when calculating the actual quantity of remaining fuel, make a map
conversion with consideration of the power supply voltage.
The fuel shortage alarm will be displayed when the quantity of remaining fuel is between approximately 5
and 10 liters, the range of which, however, varies with the model. As a rule of thumb, the fuel will last for
approximately one hour after the alarm turns ON.

3) If the fuel shortage alarm is displayed when the key is turned OFF, data on the alarm will be saved in
the microcomputer. If the voltage on average for 0.2 second indicates a fuel shortage (0.899 V or
over) when the key is turned ON again, the alarm will be displayed at once.
4) The alarm displayed will be canceled if the alarm cancel voltage (0.719 V or below) is detected 649
times or more (i.e., a minimum of 90% of the total) after the sensor signal is sampled 721 times for 5
seconds.
5) When the engine starts, the sensor float sways greatly, thus resulting in input voltage dispersion.
The sampling cycle of the sensor signal is set to 25 seconds.
6) If fuel sensor disconnection occurs, the existence of fuel is not detectable, and the fuel shortage
alarm will not turn ON.

3. Fuel Replenishment Assist Function


While replenishing fuel by pressing any switch after the key is turned OFF, the buzzer interval will
change according to the quantity of fuel replenished. When the fuel in the tank is not much, the buzzer
will be heard at long intervals. When the quantity approaches the full tank level, the intermittent buzzer
continues at shorter intervals. When the tank is full, the buzzer will be heard continuously with no inter-
vals to prevent the fuel from overflowing from the tank.

• Beep sound disappears approx 10 seconds after reaching to full of fuel.


• If fuel fank isn’t full, keep sound continues to sound for two minutes in order to alarm.

3-25 Starter auto release control


1. Outline
1) If the key freezed in the start position, the auto release relay is turned OFF to prevent damage to the
starter motor. At the same time, the glow relay will be turned OFF forcibly to prevent damage to the
glow plug. (Prevention of startor motor from key freezing)
2) The start of the engine is judged from the engine revolution sensor signal to turn OFF the auto
release relay. (Starter auto release)
3) If the key is turned OFF once and reset to the start position immediately while the engine is starting,
the pinion gear will engage while the ring gear rotates, which deteriorates the durability of the
gears.Therefore, the mechanism is designed to prevent of the engine from starting in two seconds
after the key is turned OFF. (Reentry prevention control)
4) The engine on the KX41-3 does not start at low temperature unless the revolution rises approxi-
mately 800 rpm. Therefore, the start of the engine is judged at 1,000 rpm.
(The judgment of the release of the starter has been raised by 200 rpm.)
As for the other models except KX41-3, the start of the engine is judged at 800 rpm.)
5) If the key freezes while there is a failure in the engine revolution sensor, the auto release relay will be
automatically turned OFF in 30 seconds and power supply to the starter will be stopped. (Preventionof
starter burnout damage)
The reason the above period is set to 30 seconds is that it will be possible to start the engine
byenergizing the starter three times for 10 seconds after auto glowing even in winter at a temperatureas
low as -17 °C.)
6) As shown in the diagram, if the meter panel is damaged or the or the couplers of the meter panel are
disconnected, then engine won’t start.
Just because the auto release relay is Normally Open type and so battery current won’t be supplied to
the strater moter. This is also for the safety.

d. Auto Idoling (AI) Control System


(1) Engine speed sensor
The engine speed sensor is a quick-response prox- 0.7 ± 0.2 mm
imity switch. When the teeth of a gear pass close,
the magnetic field inside the switch changes and the
variation is converted to pulses.
The number of pulses for "t" seconds is counted by
the microcomputer. The engine speed is then com-
puted in the following equation. KX080-3
gear teeth:G=76
2 x 60 Fuel pump gear
Gxt [rpm]

Such speed data is used for the starter's automatic


release system.

Sensor chip

This sensor is composed of a sensor and a


rotor. The sensor has a coil wound up around
a magnet, and the rotor is of iron with teeth. As
the rotor turns, the magnetic flux varies at its
peaks and troughs according to the turning
speed. Such frequency-dependent change of N
the magnetic force line generates an induced A B
electromotive force in the coil. The resulting
signal is fed to the controller to detect the turn-
ing speed.

The reason why KX41-3 has different sensing speed is that idling speed of KX41-3 is 1300 rpm
which is higher than any other machines.

Make sure that the safety switch is turned OFF.
Take the following steps, set the unit to tester mode, and check the condition of the safety switch.
(Service mode)

A manual check with a circuit tester is possible.

2) Check if the prevention of start mode reentry is working. (Wait two seconds or more.)
3) Check if the auto release relay is turned OFF.
Make a manual check with a circuit tester.

V-M-37
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Mechanism V. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

4) Check if the wrong model settings are made.


Depending on the model, the start of the engine is judged at 1000 rpm or below for KX41-3. There-
fore, the release of the starter motor is judged before the startup revolution of the engine is reached.
5) The reason why detecting engine speed is set at 1000 rpm ;
If 800 rpm is set to detect the engine start - up speed, the controller stops supplying the current to the
startor motor.
Under the low ambient temperature, engine may not start up at around 800 rpm.
Therefor, in order to make sure the actual engine start, sensing engine speed is set higher by 200
rpm.
This varies according to the models. Other than KX41-3, the stant of the engine is detected at 800
rpm.

Troubleshooting: Travel hi-speed malfunction


1. Turn the key switch to the ON position to see if 12 V is applied to terminal 2 of the travel hi-speed switch.

2. Press the travel hi-speed switch to see if the 12 V signal comes to terminal 1.

3. Turn on and off the travel hi-speed switch and check the continuity and discontinuity.

4. Check the continuity of the travel hi-speed solenoid coil and measure its resistance.

5. If there is no problem with the above steps, it means the electrical system functions. Now go to the

2. Fail record in EEPROM


If the sensor or actuator line has an error, the output of the actuator will stop and the LCD will display the
contents of the error while the error point is written to the EEPROM. Fig. 2 and fig. 3 show the address allo-
cation of the EEPROM.

2-1Error Storage Method


If an error result, data in a corresponding EEPROM address will be overwritten. The data in the correspond-
ing address has a capacity of 2 x 16 bits. The first address (1 x 16 bits) has an hour meter record for the lat-
est error. The other address (1 x 16 bits) has an hour meter record of the first error along with the total
number of errors in the past. The data will be written to the EEPROM after rounding off all hour meter values
for less than one hour (see fig.1).

Hour meter data and the number of errors (1) will be written to both addresses if an error occurs for the first
time. The last hour meter data will be converted into present hour meter data for errors on and after the sec-
ond time. The count will remain 15 regardless of whether the actual number of errors exceeds 15, and only
data on the last hour meter data will be overwritten.

2-2Number of Errors
Data is stored in four bits. Therefore, the maximum number of errors is limited to 15. The count increases by
one if an error occurs after the key is turned ON. Once the key is turned ON, however, the count increases
only by one until the key is turned OFF.

2-3Erasing Method of Error Log


The error log will be deleted by selecting Error Log Delete in Diagnosis Mode. In the software, only the 0th to
third bits (the accumulated number of errors) in EEPROM addresses 85 through 103 will be zero cleared,
but hour meter data will not be zero cleared. Error Log Delete in Diagnosis Mode judges that there is no
error log if the number of errors is zero.
Hour meter data will not be deleted after executing Error Log Delete in Diagnosis Mode. Therefore, by
dumping the EEPROM, hour meter data for errors will be known. This will make troubleshooting possible if
the LCD meter is returned to the factory due to a failure after shipping.
The contents of addresses 65 through 103 are zero cleared with the PC before shipping.

2. The control program is saved in the ROM of the CPU. Once data is written to the ROM and shipped to
the market, the data cannot be written in the market.
3. The total sum of the data in each address of the control program is obtained in advance and stored as
check sum data prepared while in normal operation.
4. When the key is ON, the microcomputer calculates the total sum of the data in each address of the
control program in self-control of the microcomputer. The microcomputer checks if the results coincide
with the check sum data prepared while in normal operation (i.e., at the time of writing the program).
The microcomputer will go to the next step after the microcomputer checks if the results are found nor-
mal.
5. If the data does not coincide, the microcontroller judges that the program is illegal. In that case, a
check sum data error will result and an error alarm will be output. Error No. = 55
6. The program data can be reversed if the LSI in the controller partly fails to operate due to external envi-
ronmental factors, such as abnormal temperatures or excessive shock. That is the reason the micro-
computer makes this check when the key is turned ON, thus preventing the microcomputer resulting in
out-of-control conditions due to program failures.

b. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)


Pulse width modulation (PWM) is a powerful technique for controlling analog circuits with a processor's digi-
tal outputs. PWM is employed in a wide variety of applications, ranging from measurement and communica-
tions to power control and conversion.
12V Pulse-width modulation control works by switching the power
supplied to the motor on and off very rapidly. The DC voltage is
converted to a square-wave signal, alternating between fully on
0V (nearly 12v) and zero, giving the motor a series of power "kicks".
0.2
(1)
1.0 If the switching frequency is high enough, the motor runs at a
12V steady speed due to its fly-wheel momentum.

By adjusting the duty cycle of the signal (modulating the width of


0V 0.5 the pulse, hence the 'PWM') ie, the time fraction it is "on", the
(2)
1.0 average power can be varied, and hence the motor speed.
12V
(1) 20% Duty Cycle
(2) 50% Duty Cycle
(3) 80% Duty Cycle
0V
0.8 (3)
1.0
Advantages are,
1. The output transistor is either on or off, not partly on as with normal regulation, so less power is wasted
as heat and smaller heat-sinks can be used.
2. With a suitable circuit there is little voltage loss across the output transistor, so the top end of the control
range gets nearer to the supply voltage than linear regulator circuits.
3. The full-power pulsing action will run motor at a much lower speed than an equivalent steady voltage.

The frequency of this pulse is commonly referred to as kHz control. The higher this frequency is, the finer the
control becomes, but the FET may fail to follow up the control in some cases. The PWM wave, on the other
hand, can be defined as “rectangular wave the pulse width of which changes with time”. Interestingly, rectan-
gular waves give out various sounds according to their duty ratio: from saw-tooth wave to square wave (nar-
row sine curve), and in between them.

In this method, the pulse width is controlled to regulate the average output voltage and any output voltage
can be taken out of a constant supply voltage. (See below.)

AI electric motors use electromagnetic force and have a coil built in. The inductance of a coil makes the cur-
rent flow in somewhat smooth patterns.

PWM frequency
The torque generated by a motor is proportional to the current. The higher the PWM frequency is, the
smoother the current waveform is. In other words, raise the PWM frequency, and the torque fluctuates less.
Noise-causing harmonic components are also reduced.
This, however, has downsizes, such as greater loss of electrical steel sheet and drive elements (transistors,
FETs, etc.). The final PWM frequency is determined by trade-off between these positive and negative char-
acteristics.

Anti theft controller

Outline:
Various sensor signals are fed to the CPU that is incorporated in the LCD meter. They are compared with
the settings of the input data controller. After being controlled with the program, the resulting drive output
signals are sent to actuators (solenoid valve and AI motor, for example). When the selector switch, AI switch
or work light switch is pressed, the display output controller issues a display command and its relevant icon
is picked up from the data storage and displayed on the LCD display.

g. Service Mode Flow Chart


1. General
1-1 There are sevral flow charts, depending on the models or machine - versions as below.
1) KX41-3, KX61-3, and KX71-3 have one identical service mode flow chart.
Refer to the correspondent WSM.
2) KX91-3S, U35S and U35-3S for KTC, KCL and KTA have the flow chart which dosen’t include AI -
version but includes S/P (Service port) - version.
3) KX121-3S, 161-3S and U45-3S for KTC, KCL and KTA have the flow chart which includes AI - ver-
sion and S/P (Service port) - version.
4) EU - version models of KX91-3 , 101-3 , 121-3 , 161-3 , U35-3 and U45-3 have AI (Auto idle)
and S/P (Service port) - version.
5) The service mode flow chart of anti-theft version will be added to the EU - version machine in the
appropriate future.
This will be announced later in the manual for the anti-theft-version.

1-2 How to enter the service mode?


While pushing the display-select-switch, turn the main key to ON position. Then you’ll be in the service
mode.
The model name which was pre-set will come to appear on the LCD screen.

1-3 What do the arrows indicate?


vertial to down ; You’re required to push the selector switch for a short time. Just one touch push.
Then you’ll proceed to the down menu.
vertial to up ; Similar to above. Just one touch push.
Then you’ll return to the top menu of the same column.

1. Keep in mind that the battery voltage is applied through the above circuit all the time.
2. A 60A fuse is added close to the alternator, otherwise part of the harness may get short-circuited due to the
alternator's current generated while the engine is running. In this way, the devices and harness can be
protected against burn-out.

A. TROUBLESHOOTING
a. General
(1) How to diagnose
The most important point in troubleshooting is to determine "Probable Causes". Once the probable causes
are determined, parts to be checked can be limited to those associated with such probable causes. There-
fore, unnecessary checks can be eliminated. The determination of the probable causes must be based on a
theory and be supported by facts and must not be based on intuition only.

TROUBLESHOOTING STEPS
If an attempt is made to solve a problem without going through correct steps for troubleshooting, the prob-
lem symptoms could become more complicated, resulting in failure to determine the causes correctly and
making incorrect repairs.The four steps below should be followed in troubleshooting.
Observation of Problem
1 Symptoms Observe the symptom carefully. Check if there are also
other problems.

Determination of Probable In determining the probable causes, it is necessary to


2 Causes check the wiring diagram to understand the circuit as a sys-
tem. Knowledge of switches, relays and other parts is nec-
essary for accurate determination. The causes of similar
problems in the past must be taken into account.

Checking of Parts Associated Troubleshooting is carried out by making step by step


3 with Probable Causes and checks until the true cause is found. Always go through the
Determination of Faulty Parts. procedures considering what check is to be made where
for the best results.

Repair and Confirmation After the problems are corrected, be sure to check that the
4 system operates correctly. Also check that new problems
have not been caused by the repair.

FOUR BASIC CHECKING ITEMS FOR ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSIS


This manual contains the cable diagrams as well as the individual circuit drawings, operational explanations,
and troubleshooting hints for each component required to facilitate the task of troubleshooting. The informa-
tion is compiled in the following manner:
1. “Power source”
Is the supply voltage as specified? (Battery voltage at 12 V or microcomputer output at 5 V)
If not specified, the system fails to work.
2. “Continuity”
Is there continuity along the specified lines and wire harnesses? Are the system’s resistance values as
specified?
If not specified, no current flows.
3. “Earth”
Is the system completely grounded?
If not grounded as specified, the electrical circuitry fails to function well.
4. “Insulation”
Are the system’s insulation resistances as specified?
If an electric leak occurs, the current gets out of spec and the electrical devices malfunction.

C. INSPECTION
a. Coupler Check
CONTINUITY AND VOLTAGE TEST FOR CONNECTOR
Following procedures shall be followed for testing continu-
ity and voltage at connector in order to prevent improper
contact and deterioration of waterproof in connector.

CONVENTIONAL (NON-WATERPROOF) CONNECTOR


Check shall be done by inserting a probing needle from
harness side.

WATER PROOF CONNECTOR


Caution
Do not insert probing needle from harness side as it
will deteriorates waterproof and cause for rusting.

CHECK FOR IMPROPER ENGAGEMENT OF TERMI-


NAL
When terminal stopper of connector is out of order,
engagement of male and female terminals becomes
improper even when connector itself is engaged perfectly
and terminal sometimes slips out to rear side of connector.
Ascertain, therefore, that each terminal does not come off
connector by pulling each harness wire.

ENGAGING AND DISENGAGING OF CONNECTOR


TERMINAL
Connector which gives loose engagement shall be recti-
fied by removing female terminal from connector housing
and raise its lance to establish securer engagement.
Removal of connector housing and raise its lance to
establish securer engagement. Removal of connector ter-
minal used for control circuit shall be done in the following
manner.

COMPUTER CONNECTOR
(1) Insert screwdriver [1.4 mm (.06 in.) width] as shown in the
figure, disengage front holder and remove it.
(2) Insert harness of terminal to be rectified deep into connec-
tor from harness side and hold it there.

V-S-11
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Service V. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

b. Components Check
1) Visual and aural checks
Check relay operation, blower motor rotation, light illumina-
tion, etc. visually or aurally. The flow of current is invisible
but can be checked by the operation of the parts.

2) Simple checks
For example, if a headlight does not come on and a faulty
fuse or poor grounding is suspected, replace the fuse with
a new one or ground the light to the body by a Jumper wire
to determine which part is responsible for the problem.

3) Checking with instruments


Use and appropriate instrument in an adequate range and
read the indication correctly. You must have sufficient
knowledge and experience to handle instruments correctly.

4) Inspection instruments
In inspection, make use of the following instruments.

1. Test lights
A test light consists of a 12 V bulb and lead wires. It is used
to check voltages or short-circuits.

2. Self-power test light


A self-power test light consists of bulb, battery and lead
wires connected in series. it is used to check continuity or
grounding.

V-S-12
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Service V. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

3. Jumper wire
A jumper wire is used to close an open circuit. Never use
one to connect a power supply directly to a load.

4. Voltmeter
A voltmeter is used to measure the circuit voltage.Nor-
mally, the positive (red lead) probe is applied to the point of
voltage measurement and the negative (black lead) probe
to the body ground.

5. Ohmmeter
An ohmmeter is used to check continuity or measure resis-
tance of a switch or coil. If the measuring range has been
changed, the zero point must be adjusted before measure-
ment.

V-S-13
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Service V. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

5) Checking switches
In a circuit diagram, a switch is represented by a sym-
bol and in the idle state.

1. Normal open or normal close switch


Switches are classified into those which make the circuit
open and those which make the circuit closed when off.

V-S-14
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Service V. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

c. Fuse Inspection
1) Checking fuses
A blade type fuse has test taps provided to allow checking
of the fuse itself without removing it from the fuse block.
The fuse is okay if the test light comes on when its one
lead is connected to the test taps (one at a time) and the
other lead is grounded.
(Change the key switch position adequately so that the
fuse circuit becomes live.)

Cautions in event of blown fuse


State of fuse blown due to overcurrent
When a fuse is blown, there are two probable causes as
follows: One is that it is blown due to flow of current
exceeding its rating. The other is that it is blown due to
repeated on/off current flowing through it. Which of the two
causes is responsible can be easily determined by visual
check as described below.
(1) Fuse blown due to current exceeding rating
The illustration shown the state of a fuse blown due to
this cause. In this case, do not replace the fuse with a
new one hastily since a current heavy enough to blow
the fuse has flowed through it. First, check the circuit for
short-circuit and check for abnormal electric parts. Only
after the correction of such shortening or parts, fuse of
the same capacity should be used as a replacement.
Never use a fuse of larger capacity than the one that
has blown, If such a fuse is used, electric parts or wir-
ings could be damaged before the fuse blows in the
event an overcurrent occurs again.
State of fuse blown due to thermal fatigue
(2) Fuse blown due to repeated current on/off
The illustration shown the state of a fuse blown due to
repeated current on/off. Normally, this type of problem
occurs after fairly long period of use and hence is less
frequent than the above type. In this case, you may sim-
ply replace with a new fuse of the same capacity.

V-S-15
WSM U17-3α/U17-3/U17 Service V. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

d. Harness Check
1) Check connections for looseness, rust and stains.
2) Check terminals and wires for corrosion by battery elec-
trolyte, etc.
3) Check terminals and wires for open circuit or impending
open circuit.
4) Check wire insulation and coating for damage, cracks
and degrading.
5) Check conductive parts of terminals for contact with other
metallic parts (vehicle body and other parts).
6) Check grounding parts to verify that there is complete
continuity between attaching bolt(s) and vehicle body.
7) Check for incorrect wiring.
8) Check that wirings are so clamped as to prevent contact
with sharp corners of the vehicle body, etc. or hot parts
(exhaust manifold, pipe, etc.).
9) Check that wirings are clamped firmly to secure enough
clearance from the fan pulley, fan belt and other rotating
or moving parts.
10) Check that the wirings between the fixed parts such as
the vehicle body and the vibrating parts such as the
engine are made with adequate allowance for vibrations.

e. Battery Check
When checking or servicing does not require power from the
on vehicle battery, be sure to disconnect the cable from the
battery (-) terminal. This is to prevent problems that could be
caused by shorting of the circuit. Disconnect the (-) terminal
first and reconnect it last.

Caution
1. Before connecting or disconnecting the negative cable,
be sure to turn off the ignition switch and the lighting
switch.
(If this is not done, there is the possibility of semicon-
ductor parts being damaged.)

e. Glow Plug
(1) Function of the glow plug (7)
This plug is of two-material QGS (Quick Glow Sys-
tem) type. It features quick temperature rise, self-
control function and high durability. (5)
The Super Glow plug has a heating element and a (1)
(3) (8)
heating-cum-resisting element built in a sheathing
tube. These elements are connected in series.
(9)
The lower temperature the heating element is, the
lower resistance it shows, and vice versa. (2)
(6)
Because a sufficient current flows initially through
the heating element, the element quickly gets (4)
heated and its resistance becomes higher. This (10)
means that the flowing current will get smaller to
prevent the heating element from overheat. (1) Heating-cum-resisting (6) Current (A)
The glowing point is located 2-3 mm around the tip element (7) Super Glow plug

(2) Checking the resistance


1. Disconnect the glow plug from the cylinder
head.
2. Check the resistance between the glow plugís (1) (2)
tip (terminal) and the housing.
3. If the resistance is 0 Ω, it means there is a
short-circuit. Replace the glow plug. If the
resistance is infinite, the heating coil is broken.
Replace this coil.

b. Anti-theft system
The excavator is equipped with an anti-theft system that restricts the engine to be started using a registered
key only. If a registered key gets lost or stolen, you can invalidate it. This will prevent the engine from being
started with this key, thus protecting the vehicle against theft.

The vehicle comes with two different types of key:




Black (individual) key

• This key is used to start the engine.

• The engine can be started by inserting the key and turning it


to the START position.

• To be able to start the engine with a black key, it must be


registered using the red key.

The engine can be started only with a key that was registered for the particular vehicle.
The scope of delivery includes two black keys, among them a spare key. The two black keys
have already been registered. Up to four keys can be registered.

• If you erroneously attempt to register a black key that has


already been registered, the display will show the "Already
registered" message. This means that registration can not
be done.

• If you attempt to register a fifth black key, the display will


show the "Can't register any more" message. This means
that the registration can not be done.

Registering a black key for the machine

Register a black key only under the following conditions:


Make sure that there are no persons within the excavator's working area. It is essential to warn
persons in the vicinity of the excavator by briefly blowing the horn.

Make sure that all operational controls are in neutral position.

Starting the excavator is only allowed when the operator is sitting on the driver's seat.

Do not allow the engine to run indoors, unless the room is equipped with an exhaust gas
extraction system or otherwise well ventilated. The exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide, a
colourless, odourless, and lethal gas.
