Introduction
This special instruction covers the procedure to install VIMS Application Module for Payload on all Underground Articulated Trucks. This procedure applies to Underground Articulated Trucks with payload and "VIMS Main Module" systems already installed.
Ensure that the VIMS main module is installed prior to installing VIMS application module. Refer to the following instructions for the correct procedure.
Reference: Special Instruction, REHS5904, "Procedure to Install VIMS on AD30, AD45B, AD55B, and Certain AD60 Underground Articulated Trucks".
Reference: Special Instruction, REHS5905, "Procedure to Install VIMS on AD55 Underground Articulated Trucks".
Reference: Special Instruction, SEHS0205, "Procedure to Rework VIMS Main Module on Certain AD60 Underground Articulated Trucks".
Note: Do not install VIMS application module prior to installing VIMS main module.
This supplemental product support literature should be used with the appropriate Service Manual and the appropriate Parts Manual that is available for this standard machine.

Safety Section
Work safely. Most accidents that involve product operation, maintenance, and repair are caused by failure to observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing potentially hazardous situations before an accident occurs. A person must be alert to potential hazards. This person should also have the necessary training, skills, and tools to perform these functions properly.
Safety precautions and warnings are provided in this instruction and on the product. If these hazard warnings are not heeded, bodily injury or death could occur to you or to other persons. Caterpillar cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard. Therefore, the warnings in this publication and the warnings that are on the product are not all inclusive.
Ensure that all personnel are safe when using a tool, procedure, work method, or operating technique not recommended by Caterpillar. Ensure that the product will not be damaged or the product made unsafe by the operation, lubrication, maintenance, or the repair procedures that are used.
Personal injury or death can result from machine articulation or movement. Machine frames can move and a person can be crushed. Connect the steering frame lock between the front and rear frames before working on the machine. Before operating the machine, place the steering frame lock in the stored position. Failure to place the steering frame lock into the stored position before operating can result in loss of steering. |
