Procedure for Installation of Film Groups

The following conditions need to be met in order to install the films:

  • Surface temperature is between 15 °C (60 °F) and 27 °C (80 °F).

  • The painted surface is fully dried.

  • The surface is clean and dry.

Preparation for Installing the Films

  1. Clean the surfaces with a 50:50 solution of isopropyl alcohol and water.

  2. For oily surfaces or muddy surfaces, use one of the following agents:heptane, mineral spirits and naphta. After the surface has been cleaned with the agent, use a solution of isopropyl alcohol and water in order to remove the agent.

  3. Wipe the surface with a clean paper towel until the surface is dry.

Procedure for Installing the Films

  1. Apply an application fluid.

    Note: Use only a clean water and a soap solution that is mixed in a low concentration. The recommended amount of solution is 1 to 3 drops of Ivory soap per 1 L (1 qt). For information on a supplier of Ivory soap, consult:

    The Procter & Gamble Company
    1 Proctor & Gamble Plaza
    Cincinnati, OH 45201
    USA

    When a truck is moved to a location with temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F) within 72 hours of application of the films, use Rapid Tac adhesive. For information about a Rapid Tac supplier, consult:

    Rapid Tac Inc.
    186 Combs Drive
    Merlin, Or 97532
    USA

  2. Expose the adhesive by peeling back the liner from the back of the film. Align that end of the film and position and lightly press onto the sprayed surface.

  3. Remove the rest of the paper and press the other end into position.

  4. Use a squeegee to apply pressure to the film. Start from the middle and work outward toward the edges. Use firm, overlapping strokes with the squeegee.

  5. Wait for three to five minutes. Waiting will allow the adhesive to start bonding to the surface.

  6. If the film has a mask, spray the film with an application fluid in order to loosen the mask. Peel the mask, starting in a top corner and pulling at a 45 degree angle.

  7. Use a squeegee on the film after the mask has been removed. Use a squeegee along the edges in order to ensure a proper installation.

  8. Wipe the film and the surrounding area in order to remove excess application fluid.

  1. Connect a laptop computer to the Caterpillar Diagnostic Connector on the fuse panel behind the buddy seat. The laptop computer should have JERD2142 or JERD2129 Electronic Subscription. Use a 139-4166 Data Link Cable Assembly, 171-4400 Communication Adapter Group, NEXG4523 Service Program Module, and a 7X-1425 Data Link Cable Assembly in order to connect the laptop computer.

  2. In order to power the electrical system of the truck, perform the steps that follow:

    1. Turn the battery disconnect switch ON.

    2. Turn the key of the machine ON.

    3. Do not start the Off-Highway Truck.

  3. Start the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET). Cat ET will list all of the electronic control modules for the machine. There will be at least an "ENGINE CONTROL", a "MONITOR CONTROL", a "BRAKE CONTROL", and a "CHASSIS / TRANSMISSION CONTROL".

  4. Cat ET should also display the truck model for each control. Make sure that the model is correct for each control.

  5. Choose "ENGINE CONTROL". Next, choose"CONFIGURATION" .

    1. Change the Equipment Identification Number in order to correspond to the Product Identification Number (PIN) of the truck.

    2. Choose "ACTIVE CODES" from the Cat ET menu. Click on the button on the bottom of the screen. The button reads"INCLUDE ALL ECM's" . If "NO ACTIVE CODES" appear, then continue. If active fault codes are present, resolve the active faults.

    3. Choose "LOGGED CODES" from the Cat ET menu. Click on the button at the bottom of the screen that reads "INCLUDE ALL ECM's". Clear all logged codes.

    4. Choose "DIAGNOSTICS" and choose "EVENTS" from the Cat ET menu. Click on the button that reads "INCLUDE ALL ECM's". Clear all logged events.

    5. Choose "DIAGNOSTICS" from the Electronic Technician menu.

    6. Choose "DIAGNOSTIC TESTS" from the Electronic Technician menu. Next, choose "OVERRIDE PARAMETERS".

  6. From the Cat ET menu, select"DATA LINK". Next, select "SELECT ECM". Next, select "CHASSIS / TRANSMISSION CONTROL". Next, select "CONFIGURATION".

    1. Change the Equipment ID Number in order to correspond to the PIN of the truck.

    2. Check the "BODY UP GEAR LIMIT"parameter. The parameter should be set to 1.

Check the Monitoring System

  1. Turn the ignition key to ON.

  2. Check if all the pixels in the monitor are working.

  3. "Testing in Progress" should be displayed on the monitor when the ECMs are being flashed.

  4. Check that the instrument panel is working and that the gauges sweep the full range. When the ignition switch is turned on, the gauges will sweep.

Activation of the Hoist Controls for the Truck Body

The truck might appear to have a problem with the body hoist controls. The 297-6905 Machine Software Group will set the parameters for the hoist system.

Note: The software for the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) must be used to set these parameters. Use the latest version of the Cat ET software.

Enable the Hoist System (An Adjustable Parameter)

The hoist enable parameter is set at a value of "2" for all trucks that are shipped from the factory with the 297-6905 Machine Software Group and with a body that is not installed. Parameter Value "2" will prevent the hoist cylinders from being activated by accident. After the body is installed, change the Parameter Value to "1". The hoist system should function properly. When the hoist system does not work, check the items below.

Table 63
Settings for Hoist Enable Parameter 
Parameter Value  Description 
This value is used when the hoist system is not installed. The hoist lever will not function, and no diagnostics will be logged on the hoist lever or on the solenoids. 
This value is used for normal operation when the hoist system is installed and enabled. 
Two is the default value that is set in the factory when the hoist system is installed but disabled. The solenoids and the hoist lever have diagnostics, but the hoist lever is ignored. The solenoids are kept in the HOLD position. 

  1. Verify that the hoist system is enabled in the Configurable Parameters Screen through the service menu in the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET).

  2. Disconnect Cat ET and then reconnect the line if the"Hoist Enable Status" does not appear on the configuration screen. The hoist enable parameter flexes with the Cat ET Software 3.0 when the parameter connects. Occasionally, the flexed parameter is missed by Cat ET at the time of the connection.

    Note: The hoist enable parameter is standard on the configuration screen of the Cat ET Software 3.1.

  3. If the "Hoist Enable Status" does not change, check the following potential causes:

    • The engine should not be running. When the engine is running, the engine may cause the signal from the Transmission Output Speed (TOS) to fluctuate. The TOS must be zero in order to change the "Hoist Enable Status".

    • The truck should not be moving.

    Note: Press the "F5" key on the laptop computer in order to access the configuration screen on Cat ET.

Adjustment for Hoist Lower Valve

The command for the hoist lower valve is adjustable. This compensates for the differences between the valves. The adjustment range is "-5" to +5 with zero as the default. A positive adjustment factor will increase the lower valve command. This causes the body to come down harder. A negative adjustment factor will decrease the lower valve command. This causes the truck body to softly lower.

The Adjustment for the Hoist Lower Valve may not be available on earlier ECM systems. The adjustment range may be from 0 to 10 with 5 as the default on some early ECM systems.

Note: When the Adjustment for the Hoist Lower Valve is set too high, too much oil can be diverted to the hoist system while the hoist system is in float mode. This causes the brake oil to heat up faster. Retarding capability is also decreased. To set the Adjustment for the Hoist Lower Valve, follow the procedure below.

  1. Raise the body of the truck and install the body retaining pins.

  2. Place a 6V-7830 Tetragauge or place a 3.45 MPa (500 psi) gauge with a hose extension on the outlet port of the hoist pump.

    Note: Remove the body pins and lower the body to the frame.

  3. While the body is down, place the hoist lever in the HOLD position.

  4. Enter the configure parameter screen through the pull-down service menu in the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET).

  5. Change the Adjustment for the Hoist Lower Valve to a setting that is desired from -5 to 5. The procedure begins at 0. Adjust the settings in increments of 1 in the positive position or in the negative position.

    Note: If you are using a 3.45 MPa (500 psi) gauge, remove the gauge from the extension.

  6. Raise the body to the middle position.

  7. Lower the body to the frame.

  8. If a 6V-7830 Tetragauge is not installed, shut off the engine and install a 3.45 MPa (500 psi) gauge. Start the engine and run the engine to high idle. Cycle the hoist lever to the FLOAT position and to the HOLD position. Do not power down or raise the bed if you are using a 3.45 MPa (500 psi) gauge. Damage may occur to the gauge.

  9. While the engine is running, place the hoist lever in the FLOAT position.

  10. Run the engine to high idle. Verify that the pressure at the hoist outlet port is less than 1724 kPa (250 psi).

Note: When the pressure is greater than 1724 kPa (250 psi), the adjustment is set too high. This causes too much oil to be diverted to the hoist valve. This causes the brake oil to overheat when the body is in the FLOAT position. Lower the adjustment setting and repeat Step 4 through Step 9. This lowers the pressure below 1724 kPa (250 psi).

Note: If you change the adjustment setting and there is no corresponding change in pressure, cycle the hoist lever again. A change will occur in the settings between 2 and 5.

Body Down Snub Function (A Parameter that is not Adjustable)

The body down snub function cushions the shock when the body hits the bed of the truck. When the body is lowered, the body up switch detects the position of the body when the body is close to the rail of the truck. This causes the ECM to go into snub mode.

When the operator's request is less than the snub mode, the ECM will use the operator's request. This ensures that the body down snub function will never cause the body to go down faster than the hoist lever modulation (operator's request).

The body down snub function will be canceled as the operator moves the hoist lever out of the FLOAT position or out of the LOWER position. The body down snub function will not start until the truck body goes above the activation level for the body up switch.

Purge and Charge the Suspension Cylinders

Note: Refer to Special Instruction, REHS4445, "Servicing the Suspension Cylinders for Off-Highway Trucks" for any information concerning suspension cylinders. The Special Instruction includes Tooling, pressures, and the correct procedures for purging (oil and nitrogen) and charging (oil and nitrogen).

Calibrate the Truck Payload Measurement System (TPMS)

Note: The Truck Payload Measurement System (TPMS) will not operate properly until the suspension cylinders are charged correctly.

Note: Refer to Special Instruction, REHS4445, "Servicing the Suspension Cylinders for Off-Highway Trucks" for any information concerning suspension cylinders. The Special Instruction includes Tooling, pressures, and the correct procedures for purging (oil and nitrogen) and charging (oil and nitrogen).

Note: The TPMS needs proper calibration before operation. Refer to Systems Operation, RENR8284, "Truck Payload - Calibrate".

Use the calibration procedure through the monitoring system.

Check the Work Area Vision System (if equipped)

  1. Turn the ignition key to ON.

  2. Connect the 258-0845 Work Area Vision System to the bracket on the rear of the truck.

  3. Turn the monitor ON.

  4. Check that the image is visible in the screen.

  5. Adjust the orientation of the camera on the back of the truck if the image in the screen is misadjusted.

Check the Service Brake Discs

Refer to Testing and Adjusting, RENR8294, "Service Brake Discs - Check". Also, refer to Guideline for Reusable Parts and Salvage, SEBF8095, "Service Brakes for Off-Highway Trucks and Tractors" in order to determine the service intervals. Record all data in the Brake SystemTesting and Adjusting, "Worksheets".

      Illustration 112g01421951

      Note: In order to confirm the two types of the satellite communication, the "Number of GPS Satellites" should be greater than "0" and the "Satellite Communication Status" should be "Established". This screen shows that the GPS communication is established and that satellite communications are established.

    1. If the "Number of GPS Satellites" is greater than "0" and the "Satellite Communications Status" is "Established", the communications of product link is confirmed. Record this information in the "Final Check" at the back of this Special Instruction.


      Illustration 113g01421947

      Note: If the "number of GPS satellites" is greater than 0 and the "Satellite Communication Status" is "Not Established", the wiggle test can be run while the commissioning procedures continue in order to monitor the communication status.

    2. Select"Start", in order to start the wiggle test.

      Note: Leave Cat ET running and do not navigate to a different screen in Cat ET while the wiggle test is running. These actions will end the wiggle test.



      Illustration 114g01421954
      When a parameter changes during a wiggle test the parameter will be highlighted in red. A two second beep will sound an alert.


      Illustration 115g01421955
      The parameter will stay red even if the parameter changes back to the original value. Communications are established during the wiggle test because the "Satellite Communication Status" is red.

      Note: Satellite communication may have a 15 minute lag in communication. Make sure that you leave the wiggle test running longer than 15 minutes before you fail the product link.

      Note: In order to establish communication, the antenna for the product link must have a clear view of the sky. Objects that are obstructing the antenna's view of the sky may result in a failure. If the antenna was obstructed during the test, retest the product link with an unobstructed view of the sky. Satellites can be seen from the horizon to 15 degrees above the horizon. Check the following web site for satellite coverage in your area:

      http://corneroftheuniverse.net/orbcomm/sats/sat_coverage.html

    3. Check the parameters later during the commissioning procedure. Record this information in the"Final Check" at the back of this Special Instruction. Leave the test running for at least 15 minutes or leave the test running until communication is established. The parameters will be highlighted in red if the status changed during the test.

    4. If no communication is established and the test has been running longer than 15 minutes, check the antenna for damage and check the connection from the antenna to the radio. If the cable did not have a good connection to the radio, establish a good connection and repeat the test.

    5. If the connection is good and no communication is established, refer to Troubleshooting, RENR7911, "Product Link 121/321".
