Securing The Driver's Position Carriage And Mast; Lift Chain Servicing; Inspecting The Lift Chains - Jungheinrich EKS 314 Manual De Instrucciones

6.2 Securing the driver's position carriage and
mast
The driver's position carriage can be secured
in the raised position.
– Raise the driver's position carriage until the
threads (1,2) for the retaining bolts are free.
– Unscrew the retaining bolts from the attach-
ment (3).
– Plug retaining bolts in vertical holes (1,2)
and tighten. Make sure that one of the flat
sides of the retaining bolts is facing up.
– Very slowly lower the driver's position car-
riage/mast until it is positioned on the retain-
ing bolts.
NOTICE The thread (1) for the retaining bolt
only exists for the DZ mast.

Lift Chain Servicing

IMPORTANT It is important that all lift chains and pivots are at all times kept clean and well
lubricated. Only lubricate discharged chains. A chain must be lubricated with
particular care where it passes over a deflection pulley. Lift chains are safety-
critical parts.
Chains should not have any significant contamination. They should only be
cleaned with paraffin derivatives e. g. petroleum or diesel fuels. Never clean
chains with steam jet high pressure cleaners, cold or chemical cleaning
agents.

Inspecting the lift chains

Unauthorized wear and external damage:
In accordance with official regulations, a chain is considered to be worn if it has ex-
tended in length by 3% in the section which passes over the deflection pulley. For
safety reasons, we advise replacing chains when they elongate by 2%.
Chains should also be replaced immediately when visible damage is noted, as such
damage leads to permanent breakage after a certain time.
IMPORTANT If the truck is fitted with two lift chains, both chains must always be replaced.
This is the only way to ensure even load distribution over the two chains.
When replacing chains the connecting bolts between the chain anchor and
the chain must be replaced. Only new original parts may be used.
