Permanent brain damage or death can result from severe exposure. You can ensure your safety by following these rules:

DO NOT operate the heater or engine in an enclosed area unless it is properly ventilated.

DO NOT drive with any of the truck’s inspection plates, cover plates, or the hood off unless neces-sary for maintenance. If you notice exhaust odors or exposure symptoms, IMMEDIATELY VEN-

CHAPTER OVERVIEW

The purpose of this chapter is to acquaint you with the maintenance forms, records, and reports that you must maintain for the fo rklift truck, to familiarize you with the purpose and capabilities of the forklift truck and to give you a brief descrip tion of the different systems and components of the forklift truck.

The model MHE 237 forklift truck is warranted by J. I. Case for 15 m onths or 150 0 operatin g hou rs, whichever com es first. It starts on the date, found in block 23, DA Form 2408- 9 in the logbook. Report all defects in material or workman-ship to you r supervisor, who will take appropriate act ion through your organizational maintenance shop.

The lifting forks are mounted on the front of the vehicle and the eng ine faces th e rear. Con trols for operatin g th e l ifting forks (til ting, rotati ng, l owering, side shifting of t he l ifting forks) are l ocated to the rig ht wh en you are sitting in th e operator’s seat.

To support sustainment of the mod el MHE 237 forklift trucks, some components have been replaced with a different design. The most obvious of these replacements are the driver’s seat and the engine. The vehicle may have any com-bination of these configurations — or none. The most obvi-ous indication of which seat is in stalled i s that the original seat did not have retractable seat belts. The replacement seat does have retractable seat belts. The most obvious indication of which engine is installed is that on vehicles with the origi-nal eng ine in stalled, t he engin e exhaust pipe is on the to p RIGHT s ide of the vehicle. Vehicles that have the replace-ment engine in stalled have th e eng ine exhaust pi pe on the top LEFT side of the vehicle. The replacement engine required minor modi fication to the chassis and replacement of o ther suppo rting h ardware/components. T o replace the engine in a vehicle that has the original engine installed, you must order th e NSN for the Engine Mod ification K it. T o replace the engine in a vehi cle that has the replacement engine already installed, you must order the NSN for just the engine. Replacement components will be identified in greater detail in TM 10 -3930-638-24. For the engine, com-ponents will be identified by the engine model number. The original engine is model number G207D. The replacement engine is m odel n umber 4 -390. Various o ther com ponents that have been replaced will be identified as “original” or replacement”.

2-6. MAINTENANCE FORMS AND

RECORDS

Every mission begins and ends with the paperwork. There isn’t much of it, but you have to keep it up. The forms and records you fill out have several uses. They are a permanent record of the services, repairs and modifications made on your vehicle. They are reports to organizational maintenance and to your Commander. And they are a checklist for you when you want to know what is wrong with the vehicle after its last use, and whether those faults have been fixed. For the information you need on forms and records, see DA Pam 738-750.

2-7. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

CHECKS AND SERVICES

a. Do your before(B) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE just before you operate the vehicle. Pay attention to the CAUTIONS and WARNINGS.

b. DURING checks and services(D) of PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE will be performed while the equipment and/or its component systems are in operation.

c. Do your after (A) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE right after operating the vehicle. Pay attention to the CAUTIONS and WARNINGS.

d. Do your weekly (W) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE weekly.

e. Do your monthly (M) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE once a month.

f. If something doesn’t work. troubleshoot it with the instructions in this manual or notify your supervisor.

g. Always do your PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE in the same order so it gets to be a habit. Once you’ve had some practice, you’ll spot anything wrong in a hurry.

h. If anything looks wrong and you can’t fix it, write it on your DA Form 2404. If you find something seriously wrong. report it to organizational maintenance

RIGHT NOW.

i. When you do your PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE, take along the tools you need to make all the checks. You always need a rag or two.

WARNING

Dry cleaning solvent, used to clean parts is potentially dangerous to personnel and property.

Do not use near open flame or excessive heat.

Flash point of solvent is 138 degrees F.

(1) Keep it clean: Dirt, grease, oil and debris only get in the way and may cover up a serious problem.

TM 10-3930-638-10

CHECKS AND SERVICES (PMCS)

Clean as you work and as needed. Use dry cleaning solvent (P-D-680) on all metal surfaces. Use soap and water when you clean rubber or plastic material.

(2) Bolts, nuts and screws: Check them all for obvious looseness, missing, bent or broken condition.

You can’t try them all with a tool, of course, but look for chipped paint, bare metal or rust around bolt heads. If you find one you think is loose, tighten it, or report it to organizational maintenance if you can’t tighten it.

(3) Welds: Look for loose or chipped paint, rust or gaps where parts are welded together. If you find a bad weld, report it to organizational maintenance.

(4) Electric wires and connectors: Look for cracked or broken insulation, bare wires and loose or broken connectors. Tighten loose connectors and make sure the wires are in good shape.

(5) Hoses and fluid lines: Look for wear, damage and leaks, and make sure clamps and fittings are tight.

Wet spots show leaks, of course, but a stain around a fitting or connector can mean a leak. If a leak comes from a loose fitting or connector, tighten it. If some-thing is broken or worn out, report it to organizational maintenance.

j. It is necessary for you to know how fluid leakage affects the status of your vehicle. The following are definitions of the types/classes of leakage you need to know to be able to determine the status of your vehicle.

Learn, then be familiar with them and REMEMBER-

WHEN IN DOUBT, NOTIFY YOUR SUPERVISOR!

Leakage Definitions for Crew/Operator PMCS

Class I Seepage of fluid (as indicated by wetness or discoloration) not great enough to form drops.

Class II Leakage of fluid great enough to form drops but not enough to cause drops to drip from item being checked/inspected.

Class III Leakage of fluid great enough to form drops that fall from the item being checked, inspected.

CAUTION

EQUIPMENT OPERATION IS ALLOWABLE

WITH MINOR LEAKAGES (CLASS I OR II).

OF COURSE, CONSIDERATION MUST BE

GIVEN TO THE FLUID CAPACITY IN THE

lTEM/SYSTEM BEING CHECKED/

INSPECTED. WHEN IN DOUBT, NOTIFY

YOUR SUPERVISOR.

CLASS Ill LEAKS SHOULD BE CORRECTED

IMMEDIATELY OR REPORTED TO YOUR

SUPERVISOR OR ORGANIZATIONAL

MAINTENANCE.
