CAN Bus Communication
CAN stands for Controller Area Network. CAN is
a communication protocol developed for “noisy”
environments. A CAN uses two digital signal
lines referred to as Bus+ and Bus-. The CAN
Bus technology allows for easy expansion of
additional equipment so long as they are CAN
ready. The only method of determining the
functionality of the CAN Bus is with an
oscilloscope. Both the Bus+ and Bus- signals will
remain at 2.5v until a message is sent. The
message is very short in time duration therefore
making it very difficult to monitor utilizing a digital
voltmeter. All controllers or “nodes” connected to
the bus have the ability of communicating with
each other.
The communication connections are shown on
Page 3-23 of the schematic. The connections
used for communications are run as a twisted
pair to help reduce “noise”. There is also a
terminating resistor at the beginning and the end
of the communication loop.

Regenerative Braking
Regenerative braking occurs during the plugging
cycle. This is sometimes referred to as (inverse
braking). When the drive motor is turning in the
opposite direction of the way the motor is being
controlled, the motor is producing AC voltage on
each phase through the rectifier diodes turning
the voltage to DC positive and negative. As long
as the voltage is higher than battery voltage, the
charging procedure continues.

SCHEMATIC
How to use the schematic:
The electrical diagrams (schematics) are multiple
pages that give reference points to indicate
common connections, information relating to the
wire number(s) and component identifiers.
There are page numbers and sections
referenced. The schematics for this vehicle are
very similar to using a road map. There are
numbered zones shown on the topside of the
page to aid in locating specific areas (See figure
3-4). The example given is for a high
performance model and used to help explain
how to use the schematics. For your particular
vehicle, please use the corresponding
schematics as shown in this section.
Page 1 Locator Box: 22
This section of the schematic depicts a 10A fuse,
the label for the fuse is 8F1, the fuse has two
locations referenced 6, and F. The F side of the
fuse is connected to a wire that is labeled 8L1
Note the numbers below the wire identifier (8L1).
The 9/27 will direct you to the page (9) and
locator box (27) where the wire is connected.
The same procedure is used for following circuits
through out the schematic.
Note: Single numbers without ( / ) indicate
that the connection is on the same page.
These schematics provided do not differentiate
between power cables and control wires. There Figure 3-4
are no bolder lines to indicate a power cable, nor
is there a particular location used exclusive for
the power circuitry.

To access this menu reference the Menu
Description section of the
Programming/Troubleshooting through the
Handset chapter.
The adjustments are used to “fine tune” the
vehicle. The technician uses the adjustments to
add offsets to those components that have
inconsistent values. The following is a list of
adjustments that can be altered on the Traction
Controller.
Set Battery Type – This adjustment defines the
voltage of he battery installed in the vehicle. If
the battery within the truck is 36 volts this field
should be set to “36”.
Adjust Battery – This adjustment provides the
offset to the battery voltage reading so as to
better match the battery.
Throttle 0 Zone – This adjustment is the range
in which the rotation of the traction
potentiometer, from neutral, will result in the
output of a creep speed. As this value is
increased so will the range of creep speed. See
Figure 2.1
Throttle X Point – This adjustment is the point
in which the rotation of the traction
potentiometer, from neutral, will result in the
output speed (Throttle Y). See Figure 2.1

GENERAL INFORMATION
In order to turn on most options, the handset is
required. Handset part number 97M2204900 and
adapter RL463054 are needed to plug into the
connector accessible when the left side door is
opened.

! WARNING

Do not plug in the handset unless the


battery is disconnected

Adjustment of parameters and testing of each


individual controller can be accomplished
through the handset. See Figure 4.4. The
handset connects to the 8 pin connector located
behind the SICOS/Display Unit. The handset is
designed for the technician to adjust certain
characteristics of the vehicle. There is an
additional feature that allows the technician to
use the handset as a tool to diagnose the
various electrical components on the vehicle.
Alarms will also be visible through the use of the
handset. The next couple of pages will describe Figure 4.4 Handset with Adapter Cable

Height Detection Overview


The vehicle is capable of having an option
installed that will enable it to calculate the vehicle
fork height once the vehicle is out of the free lift
stage. The vehicle is also capable of having
programmed shelf height selections that will
automatically position the height of the forks to
either store or retrieve a load. It is able to
accomplish this using the MHYRIO Controller, a
switch (S43), an encoder (B41) and cable, and
associated brackets.
The switch (S43) is mounted near the top of the
mast assembly; it is a proximity style switch that
is activated by a bracket that is mounted to the
vehicle telescopic. As the vehicle is elevated
above the free lift stage, the bracket will move up
and away from the free lift reference switch S43.
Once the switch S43 has been transitioned the
controller is able to establish a height reference
point. As the vehicle telescopic is raised or
lowered the cable attached to the encoder
assembly will cause the assembly to rotate and
the encoder pulse count will be converted to a
height value.

should be inspected and lubricated. Inspection misalignment in the system. This condition
should involve the following: damages the chain and increases frictional
loading, and should be corrected. See Figure 15.
Elongation
When a length of 12.00 inches (305 mm) of a
new chain has elongated to a length of 12.360
inches (315 mm), it should be discarded and
replaced. It is important to measure the chain in
the section that moves over the sheaves
because it receives the most frequent
articulation. Measuring the chain near its clevis
terminals could give an erroneous reading as it
would not have flexed as frequently, if indeed at
all, as nearer the middle of the assembly. See
figure 15. Chains should be replaced when wear
exceeds 3% of the pitch or when 12 inches (305
mm) of chain is stretched 3.8 inch (10 mm).
Edge Wear
Check the chain for wear on the link plate edges
caused by running back and forth over the
sheave. The maximum reduction of the material
should not exceed 5%. This can be compared to
a normal link plate height by measuring a portion
of chain that does not run over the sheave.
Distorted or battered plates on the leaf chain can
cause tight joints and prevent flexing. See figure
15. Worn contours and worn surfaces on the
outside links or pin heads should not exceed 5%
of new height.
Turning or Protruding Pins
Highly loaded chain operated with inadequate
lubrication can generate abnormal friction forces
between pin and link plates. In extreme
instances, the torque could surpass the press fit
force between the pins and the outside plates,
resulting in pin rotation. When chain is allowed to
operate in this condition, a pin, or series of pins,
can begin to twist out of the chain resulting in
failure. The pin head rivets should be examined
to determine if the “VEE” flats are still in correct
alignment. Chains with rotated/displaced heads
or abnormal protrusion should be replaced
immediately. Do not attempt to repair the chain
by welding or driving the pin(s) back into the
chain. Once the press fit integrity between Figure 15

cause excessive looseness between rails and

wear, and stress relieving due to handling heavy
loads over a period of time may cause slight
dimensional changes between upright rails. The
illustration shows clearance between rails and

A roller clearance inspection should be
performed if, during normal operational checks of
the upright, noticeable looseness or binding
between rails sets, or if scoring is evident on the
rails. Proper roller clearance should be
maintained because the mast is designed to nest
the rails snugly while providing smooth
operation.

and the rails are being elevated hydraulically, the
inner rail will automatically assume it’s correct
position. Note the procedure for checking the
clearance is basically the same whether the
upright is mounted or has been removed from

There are two methods presented, one using a
pry bar to position the rails and rollers and the
other using a “C” clamp.
If the upright is mounted to the truck,, the use of
an approved safety platform or step ladder is
recommended when making inspections and
checking clearances at the upper levels. If the
upright has been removed and placed on the flat
floor, proper blocking of hardwood (Oak) or steel
supports must be used to keep the upright
horizontal with the floor. This is especially
important when fully extending the intermediate
and inner rails.

Determining the Number of Shims needed


to make roller adjustments
• Refer to step 3. Look at the three numbers
that were recorded at each roller on the rails.
The smallest of these is the total number of
shims that need to be added. “0” means DO
NOT add shims.
• If any of the rollers require adjustment, refer
to adjustment procedures on next page. # of Shims Dimension Dimension
• If the upright roller clearance was checked per Shim (in) (decimal - in)

Shim Adjustment
With the upright laying horizontal on

• Expose the rollers by pulling the rails
part way out of the bottom as shown.
• Pull rollers (one set at a time) from their
stubshaft. Count the number of shim(s)
currently used on each shaft. Add Right
shims as indicated in the roller
clearance check. Left
• If the check indicates that an even
number of shims are needed Upper
(2 etc..), split the number between Rollers
the right and left sides. If the check
indicates an odd number of shims
(3, etc..), place the odd shim on the
right hand side shaft. Always keep
the odd number of shims on to one
side.
• The target for adjustment is to have
the same number of shims on each
roller set (right and left per rail
assembly). An odd or extra shim
MA1068.eps
must be placed on the same side
as the one before.
• Reposition each roller on it’s shaft

• Avoid mixing lubricants. In some cases, different brands of lubricant are not compatible with each other and deteriorate when mixed. It is
best to stick with the same brand at successive service intervals.
• Brands of oil are subject to change without notice.
• When you purchase oil - select recommended brands and check specifications.
