Accurate Payload Information
Do not load the machine on a surface that has a slope of more than 5 percent.
The information may not be accurate if the suspension cylinders are not properly charged.
Do not allow the operator of the loading machine to press with the loading tool on the top of the last load.
Do not move the truck more than 160 m (525 ft) while the truck is being loaded.
Do not move the hoist control while the truck is being loaded.
Calibrate VIMS after any of the suspension cylinders are serviced. Calibrate VIMS after substantial changes are made to the empty weight of the truck. There is a substantial change in weight when wear plates are added to the body.
The information will not be accurate if the truck is loaded with a conveyor. If the truck is loaded with a continuous flow, the information will not be accurate. These systems do not provide an abrupt increase in the pressure of the suspension cylinders. The abrupt increase of the pressure of the suspension cylinders causes the VIMS to begin the loading cycle.
Do not move away from the loading site before the pressures of the suspension cylinders have stabilized. Do not move away from the loading site before the Advisor screen displays the final weight.
Do not ignore fault codes.Refer to the Systems Operation, Troubleshooting, Testing and Adjusting, UENR3672, "MT4400D AC Off-Highway Truck VIMS, Monitoring and Payload" for additional information.Hauling
Do not use the retarder control as a parking brake or to stop the machine.
Pay attention to your surroundings. Keep a safe distance from any machines in front of your machine.Do not drive over unprotected power cables. Do not drive under low hanging overhead power cables.Know the maximum height of the machine. Know the maximum width of the machine. Maintain proper clearances.Always travel with the hoist control in the FLOAT position. Shift to the top speed that is anticipated. All further shifts will be automatic.During normal braking operation (AC drive truck only), use the retarder pedal for speeds greater than 10 km/h (6 mph) and use the service brake for speeds less than 10 km/h (6 mph).Roads can be slick from ice or from snow. Also, roads can be slick from being wet. Reduce the speed of the machine in order to compensate for poor ground conditions.Traveling Down a Grade
When the machine is allowed to coast in NEUTRAL, the Automatic Retarder Control will activate when the machine speed reaches the set speed limit set by the operator, or the machine speed reaches the machine overspeed limit set in ET.When you approach a downgrade that is long or steep, Automatic Retarder Control (ARC) Switch (5) should be in the ON position.See Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Retarding" in this Section for further information.Traveling Up a Grade
When Traveling up a grade and the machine is brought to a stop, the anti-rollback function will activate as the machine begins to roll backward.The the anti-rollback function will automatically apply the service brakes when the machine speed passes through zero
