TM 10-3930-671-24 About This Manual This manual is intended for use by persons who are trained and authorized to do lift truck maintenance.  It is designed to provide  essential  information  about  the  correct  and  safe  service  maintenance  and  repair  of  the  lift  truck  by  trained mechanics or service technicians. The Information is organized Into 14 major Parts of related components or topics as outlined by the Table of Contents at the front of the manual: •1 General information including precautions and safe maintenance practices. •2 Service specifications and reference information including lubricants, capacities, pressures, etc. •3 Planned Maintenance (PM) service procedures. • 4-13 Adjustment, service and repair procedures for truck components. In Parts 4-13, the detailed service and repair procedures are arranged in Sections for each procedure, component or subsystem.    Some  Sections  include  explanations  that  cover  service  procedures  common  to  several  components  or subsystems. In general, each Section is  written  to  show  and  describe  the  general  arrangement,  adjustment,  removal,  disassembly, inspection, repair, and assembly steps that are normally required to service the component.  Component specifications (as applicable), information notes, and safety messages are included within those procedures.  In most cases, specifications are shown in Section 2, Service Specifications, for convenience of reference. The Table of Contents lists major headings of Parts of the manual.  Additional content listings are placed at the beginning of each Section of the manual, subsection, or component heading to simplify reference to multiple topics or procedures covering optional equipment, such as engines and transaxles. If you cannot find a topic in the respective Table of Contents, check the Alphabetical Subject Index at the back of the manual. This  manual  has  been  made  easier  to  use  by  providing  only  specific  steps  and  instructions  necessary  to  explain  the activity,  component,  assembly,  or  process  being  worked  on.    The  technician  is  expected  to  include  obvious  additional steps of standard procedure for removal, disassembly, cleaning, inspection, reassembly, installation, etc., as needed. To be better prepared to do the necessary service work, take time to completely read the entire procedure, including any special instructions, before doing any work. The technician is cautioned and expected to always work in a safe manner by using the correct procedure. Do not take chances which may result in injuries. F-6
