(1) Retarder Control Lever
Install 9U-7400 Multitach Tool Group on the engine. 9U-7400 Multitach Tool Group can measure engine speed by the use of the photo pickup and reflective tape, a magnetic pickup or a tachometer generator. Instructions for the use of 9U-7400 Multitach Tool Group is in the case.
Start the engine.
Shift the transmission shift lever into the NEUTRAL position.
Be sure that the torque converter (transmission) oil does not get too hot.
With the engine at HIGH IDLE rpm, pull retarder control lever (1) to the FULLY ACTIVATED position. The engine rpm must be 1850 100 rpm.Note: Running the machine in this condition for an extended period of time will cause critical engine overheating.
Push retarder control lever (1) back to the RELEASED position. The engine rpm must return to HIGH IDLE rpm.Results
When retarder control lever (1) is FULLY ACTIVATED and the engine rpm is too high, one of the following conditions occurred:
Unavailable air pressure to the supply passage of the retarder air control valve
The retarder air control valve is worn or the retarder air control valve is damaged. This will allow little air pressure or no air pressure to flow to the air pressure regulator.
There is wear, damage or incorrect adjustment of the air pressure regulator.
The hydraulic system has a failure.When the retarder control lever is in the RELEASED position and the engine rpm is too low, one of the following conditions occurred:
Wear, damage or incorrect adjustment of the air pressure regulator
Wear to the retarder air control valve or damage to the retarder air control valve prevents the release of pressure air from the delivery passage.
Wear to the retarder air control valve or damage to the retarder air control valve slows the release of pressure air from the delivery passage.
The hydraulic system has a failure.Note: For more information on the retarder air system, refer to the Brakes Systems Operation, Testing and Adjusting, RENR9084, "Air System and Brakes".
