(5)
Slight scoring (scuffing, seizing, or galling). This may be a minor impairment of surface, or of a welding nature
showing slight tears and scratches in direction sliding. It starts in areas having high combinations of surface
stress and sliding velocity. It usually occurs at or near the tip of the tooth.
(6)
Burning. Discoloration and loss of hardness from excessive temperature. This is caused by friction resulting from
overload, overspeed, lack of backlash, or faulty lubrication. If discoloring can be wiped off with a clean cloth, it can
usually be traced to oil bum stains which are not usually serious.
(7)
Rolling. This is a form of plastic yielding (continuous and permanent deformity in any direction without rupture).
This results from heavy, even loads and sliding.
d.
Inspect shaft splines for wear, pitting, rolling, or peening and for fatigue cracks. In many instances, the same
inspection procedure will apply as for gears. However, the condition will usually be much less pronounced.
e.
Check all hose surfaces for deterioration and signs of fatigue. Check for breaks caused by sharp kinks or contact
with other parts of the forklift. Inspect tubing for kinks. Check for leaks.
f.
Inspect all wiring harnesses for chaffed or burned insulation. Inspect all terminal connections for loose
connections and broken parts.
g.
Visually inspect all castings and weldments for cracks.

GENERAL REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS.
a.
Remove burrs from gear teeth with a fine-cut file or hand grinder.
WARNING
Compressed air used for cleaning purposes must not exceed regulated 30 psi (207 kPa). Use only
with effective chip guarding and personal protective equipment (goggles/shield, gloves, etc.) to
prevent injury to personnel.
b.
Starter commutators may be polished in a lathe using a strip of 00 sandpaper. After polishing, blow dust and
residue from commutator with compressed air.
c.
Chassis and exterior painted parts may be resurfaced, where paint is damaged or where parts have been
repaired, by using an abrasive disc.
CAUTION
Precautions should be taken to guard other parts of the truck from abrasive dust. Do not work
near exposed parts and openings which would allow the dust to reach working parts.
d.
Remove residue and oil stain from bearing races with crocus cloth.
e.
Before resurfacing, scrape all loose and blistered paint from damaged areas. Sand or buff area to be painted.
Remove residual cleaning material with paint thinner and dry thoroughly.
