1 Presentation of the truck


The truck is a battery-powered support arm truck. In its stand-
ard design the truck is equipped with a tiller arm for control
while walking.
PPT 1400C is a battery-powered support-arm truck for load-
ing and leaving loads in confined areas. Thanks to its small
format it is also suitable to carry on lorries.
The trucks PPT 1400MX and PPT 1400C have a maximum
lifting capacity of 1400 kg.
PPT 1600MX has a maximum lifting capacity of 1600 kg.
PPT 2000MX has a maximum lifting capacity of 2000 kg.
The truck has a 24 V electrical system with two speed control
options: A stepless transistor controlled system that gives
smooth control of the speed while driving or a resistor control-
led system with three speed steps.
The truck can be equipped with different accessories such as
integrated charger, load support and running meter/battery
status. The truck can also be fitted with stainless steel axles
and low temperature oil if it is to be used in cool and humid
conditions.
The forks are lifted by using a powerful and compact hydraulic
unit that is automatically shut-off when the forks reach their
highest lifting position. The automatic shut-off is used to
increase the service life of the hydraulic components and
reduce the power consumption from the battery.
Note that some of the truck models described in the Opera-
tor’s Manual may not be marketed in your country.

Introduction, maintenance
All points in the service program should be carried out to
attain the highest safety and the least possible downtime. The
service intervals are only a guide and do not need to be fol-
lowed to the letter. The operator may adapt them to local con-
ditions, but it is important that the intervals comply with BT’s
minimum requirements.
The service intervals are based on the running times and can
be adapted to most normal 8 hour shifts. The service interval
may be shortened if the truck is used more frequently or in
more demanding situations, e.g cold store, dusty or corrosive
situations. The following running times have been used when
calculating the intervals:
- Day time: 08.00-17.00 (20 hr./week)
- 2-shifts: 06.00-14.00, 14.00-22.00 (40 hr./week)
- 3-shifts: 06.00-14.00, 14.00-22.00,22.00-06.00
(60 hr./week)
Ensure the truck is given a regular maintenance service after
every 500 driving hours. The truck’s safety, efficiency and
service life is dependent on the service and maintenance it is
given.
Only use BT approved spare parts when service and repair
work are carried out.

1. Safety regulations with mainte-


nance work
Only personnel that have been trained in the service and
repair of this type of truck are authorised to carry out service
and repair work.
• Do not carry out any maintenance work on the truck unless
you have the correct training and knowledge to do so
• Keep the area where you carry out the service clean. Oil or
water makes the floor slippery
• Never wear loose objects or jewellery when working on the
truck

WARNING!
Short-circuiting/Burns.
When working with the truck’s electrical system, short-
circuiting/burns can occur if a metal object comes into con-
tact with live electrical connections.
Remove watches, rings or other types of metal jewellery.

• Always disconnect the battery by pulling out the battery


isolator when carrying out maintenance work on the truck
unless otherwise stated in this Service Manual
• Always switch off the truck’s power supply before opening
the covers on the drive unit or electrical system
• Relieve the system pressure slowly before starting work on
the truck’s hydraulic system
• Use paper or a rigid sheet of cardboard when checking for
oil leakage. Never use your hand
• Bear in mind that the oil in the transmission or the hydraulic
system can be hot

WARNING!
Risk of burns.
Hot transmission and hydraulic oil.
Let the truck cool before changing the oil.
• Only fill the hydraulic system with new and clean oil

WARNING!
The hydraulic system can be damaged.
If the oil is contaminated hydraulic components can be
damaged.
Always use new and clean oil in the hydraulic system.
• Store and dispose of changed oil in accordance with local
directives
• Do not release solvents and the like, which are used for
cleaning/washing, into drains that are not intended for this
purpose. Follow the local directives that apply for disposal
• Disconnect the battery when welding on the truck
NOTE!
The battery can be damaged.
When welding using an electric power source the welding
current can enter the battery.
The battery should therefore be disconnected.
• Remove at least 100 mm of paint around the welding/
grinding area through sand-blasting or the use of a paint
stripper when welding or grinding on painted surfaces

CAUTION!
Harmful gases.
Paint that is heated gives off harmful gases.
Remove 100 mm of paint from the work area.

2. Cleaning and washing


Cleaning and washing of the truck is important to ensure the
truck’s reliability.
• Carry out general cleaning and washing weekly
NOTE!
Risk of short-circuiting.
The electrical system can be damaged
Disconnect the battery before washing by pulling out the
battery connector.

2.1. External cleaning


• Remove rubbish, etc. from the wheels daily
• Use a well-known degreasing agent, diluted to a suitable
concentration
• Rinse off loose grime using tepid water
NOTE!
Jamming, corrosion.
Mechanical components can be damaged.
After washing, the truck should be lubricated as set out in
the chapter Maintenance and lubrication chart.

2.2. Cleaning the motor compartment


• Cover the electric motors, connections and valves before
washing
NOTE!
Risk of short-circuiting.
The electrical system can be damaged.
Electrical components must not be cleaned with a high
pressure washing unit.
• Clean the motor compartment using a well-known
degreasing agent, diluted to a suitable concentration
• Rinse off loose grime using tepid water

2.3. Electrical components


• Blow electric motors down using compressed air
• Clean the electrical panels, electronic boards, contactors,
connections, solenoid valves, etc. using a damp cloth and
a cleaning agent
NOTE!
Risk of short-circuiting.
Electrical components can be damaged.
Do not break the guarantee seal on the electronic board.

3. Safe lifting
All lifting must be carried out on a flat, non-slip and firm sur-
face. Avoid new laid asphalt or asphalt on a hot summer’s
day.
• Activate the parking brake to prevent the truck from moving
during the lift. If the lift applies to the brake wheel, chock
the other wheels so that the truck stands still
• Select a lifting point so that the lift is as easy as possible
(one corner at a time). If the truck has marked lifting points
on the under side of the chassis these can be used to
obtain a well balanced lift
• Ensure that the surface under the jack is clean and free
from oil and grease
• Ensure that your hands and the jack’s lever are free from
oil and grease
• Use the lever that belongs to the jack. A lever that is too
short requires more force than is necessary. If the lever is
too long there is a risk of the jack being overloaded
• Support the truck:
- as close as possible to the part of the chassis that is to
be lifted. This reduces the risk of the truck tipping over
- so that the truck cannot roll
• Never lift up the jack in order to lift higher
• Never work under a lifted truck unless it is well supported

WARNING!
Risk of crushing.
A badly supported truck can fall.
Never work under a truck that is not supported on trestle-
blocks and secured by a lifting device.

1 General
The drive motor, drive gearbox and brake are combined as a
complete drive unit.
The drive motor is a compound type direct current motor, i.e.
it is comprised of an stator winding connected in series with
the armature and a stator winding, called a shunt field, which
is connected in parallel with the armature.
The armature current is fed by four traditional type carbon
brushes which lie against the armature commutator.
The rotation direction of the motor is changed by changing the
armature current flow direction with relation to the stator wind-
ings.
In the illustration below, A1 and A2 are the armature connec-
tions, D1 and D2 are the series field connections and E1and
E2 are the shunt field connections. The motor rotation direc-
tion is changed by reversing armature connections A1 and
A2.

1.1 Mechanical construction


The motor is comprised of a yoke into which the stator wind-
ings are mounted. At each end of the casing there is a bear-
ing end bracket in which the armature bearings are mounted.
A brush bridge assembly with four spring loaded carbon
brushes is mounted on the bearing box at the motor commu-
tator end. The carbon brushes sit against the armature com-
mutator and transfer the armature current to armature
windings.
Each of the motor windings is accessible via external connec-
tions.

• Lift the truck and place the drive wheel in the cradle (see
chapter ”Special tools”).

• Remove the motor attachment bracket from the chassis


(four bolts).
• Lift the truck straight up with the drive wheel resting in the
cradle. Check carefully that the drive unit does not follow
up with the truck or fall to the side.
WARNING!
Pinch risk!
A lifted truck that is not secured can overturn.
The truck may only be lifted from the lifting eyes intended
for this purpose using a lifting device that is undamaged
and dimensioned for the weight of the truck.
Work must not be carried out under the truck when lifted.

• Remove the brake unit from the motor commutator end.


• Remove the tiller arm bracket from the motor by removing
the four bracket bolts.
• Remove the four nuts for motor attachment to the drive
gearbox and lift the motor carefully straight up, without

2.2 Re-assembling
• Lift the motor carefully down into the drive gearbox. The
four studs on the motor must fit into the corresponding
holes on the drive gearbox. In order for the motor to fit fully
into the drive gearbox upper surface, the drive gearbox
must sometimes be rotated by hand so that the motor shaft
gear engages with the drive gearbox gear. Care must be
taken that the motor O ring seal is not damaged.
• Tighten the nuts on the studs to the prescribed torque,
26.6 Nm.
• Install the brake unit and adjust as per the instructions.
• Replace the drive assembly in the truck and re-connect the
motor cables. Check that the polarity is correct.
• After the completed re-assembly, the brake function must
be tested before the truck is moved.

3 Service/Repairs
3.1 Cleaning
For correct functioning, it is important that the motor is kept as
clean as possible. The motor and motor compartment must
be regularly checked for dust, oil and other contamination.
If the motor windings and interior are dry, use a vacuum
cleaner with suitable mouthpiece to clean the motor. Com-
pressed air can be used in combination with a vacuum
cleaner. In this case the compressed air must be clean and
dry.
If the windings have a coating, use a lint-free cloth, damped if
necessary with an organic and volatile cleaning agent that
can dissolve grease and which will not damage the windings.
The cleaning agent must not be used in such quantity that it
can enter the motor.
Remains of cleaning agent must be removed with a suitable
solvent if an oily surface is left.
If the motor parts are badly dirtied it can be necessary to
spray them with a solvent. It is especially important for the
armature that the solvent is applied in such a way that dis-
solved dirt etc. does not enter into the motor section.
One method of cleaning the armature is to dip it in solvent. If
this is done the armature must always be heat dried. Good
ventilation is necessary during drying which must continue
until a number of insulation measurements give consistent
and acceptable results.

then be lifted off, if necessary, with the aid of a suitable
puller tool.
• Remove the commutator end bearing shield (11) together
with brush holder (03) and carbon brushes (02) by remov-
ing the six hexagon socket bolts. Then lay the motor with a
fixed stop against edge of the bearing shield and carefully
striking the armature shaft with a rubber mallet.

• Remove the bearing shield (25) on the drive end together


with the armature (09). Be careful not to damage the motor
windings when the armature is removed from the motor
yoke.
• After removing the motor bearing shield and removing the
armature from the motor yoke, the gear wheel on the
armature drive end must be removed. This is done by
removing the gear wheel nut and then pulling the gear
wheel off with a puller. Note that the gear wheel is locked
with Loctite onto the armature shaft.
• Remove next the inner circlip and washer under it. Pull the
armature shaft out of the bearing (24).
• Remove the outer circlip and washer and remove the bear-
ing from the bearing shield.
• Remove the bearing shield seal (26) and clean the bearing
shield carefully.
• Install a new seal in the bearing bracket.

3.3 Re-assembling the motor


• Reassembling of the motor is carried out in the reverse
order to dismantling. Check carefully that the armature can
move freely in the rotation direction and that the carbon
brushes are lying against the commutator.
• Check the insulation resistance of the motor (between
respective windings and the motor yoke). For a new motor
this must be between 2 –3 Mohm. A used motor has been
subjected to contamination and in this case a resistance of
down to approx. 1 Mohm can be acceptable.
• Install a new O ring in the drive shaft end bearing shield
and a new seal in the bearing shield collar.

3.4 Armature bearings


The armature bearings are comprised of a permanently lubri-
cated and double sealed type 6204-2Z/C3 bearing in the
armature commutator end and a single sealed type 6205/2Z-
C3 bearing in the armature drive end.
The grease used in both bearings is high temperature type
HT24.
The bearing open spaces are partially filled with Texaco SRi2
grease from the factory to protect the inside of the bearing
against the penetration of dust and contamination.
The life of the bearing is between 5 000 and 20 000 hours,
depending upon the speeds and other stresses it has been
subjected to.
During heavy loading the bearing temperature can rise to
180°. An abnormal temperature increase, or excessive noise,
indicates insufficient lubrication or bearing wear.

3.4.1 Changing the drive end bearing


Clean the new bearing and fill to max. 50% with grease, type
HT24. Install the bearing in the bearing shield with the
unsealed side in toward the shield. Put the washer between
the circlip and bearing in place and lock the bearing with the
outer circlip.
Install the armature in the bearing shield and lock it in place
with the washer and circlip.
Remove all grease and other contamination from the arma-
ture shaft gear wheel taper. The same applies for the gear
wheel inner surface.
Apply a film of Loctite 603 onto the armature shaft taper and
install the gear wheel onto the shaft. Put the washer in place,
apply a film of Loctite 243 onto the shaft threads and screw
on the nut. The nut must be tightened to the prescribed
torque, 30 Nm, and then locked with a centre punch.
Care must be taken not to damage the field and armature
windings during refitting of the armature and bearing shield.

3.4.2 Changing the commutator end bearing


After the commutator end bearing shield has been removed,
the bearings can be removed from the armature shaft with a
suitable extractor.
The new bearing is installed onto the armature shaft with the
aid of a brass drift.

3.5 Carbon brushes and brush holder


The following checks must be carried out during the service
and repair of the motor:
• The brush bridge and brush holder must be firmly
attached.
• The carbon brushes must move freely in their holders.
• The brush holders must be free from contamination.
• Worn brushes must be replaced. The minimum permissible
length of the carbon brushes is 11 mm.
The carbon brushes are normally supplied with a preformed
radius that corresponds to the commutator radius.

3.5.1 Changing carbon brushes


Carbon brushes can be replaced without the drive unit need-
ing to be removed from the truck.
To change the four carbon brushes, the plastic plugs that
cover the brushes in the motor yoke must be removed. Then
remove the screw that holds the cable for the brush in ques-
tion. When the cable has been disconnected, lift the spring to
one side so that the carbon brush can be withdrawn from the
holder.
Refitting is carried out by installing a new carbon brush into
the holder, lifting back the spring and then reconnecting the
carbon brush connection cable.
After fitting, check carefully that the carbon brush can move
freely in the holder and that it is lying correctly against the
commutator.

3.6 Commutator
The commutator should normally have an even colour over
the whole surface. The appearance of the commutator can,
however, vary quite considerably, depending on how it has
been used. If the commutator shows burn marks or uneven
black coloured areas, it must be cleaned with fine glass
paper. Emery cloth must never be used.

3.6.1 Machining the commutator


If it should become necessary to machine the commutator on
a lathe, this must be done accurately and carefully.
To achieve an acceptable result the cutting speed must be at
least 200 m/min if a hard metal tool is used. If a diamond cut-
ting tool is used, which will produce the best results, the cut-
ting speed must be considerably higher.
Feed must be between 0.08 and 0.1 mm and cutting depth
must not exceed 0.05 mm.
After machining, the commutator eccentricity must not exceed
0.02 mm and surface unevenness must be less than 4 µm.
An eccentricity of max. 0.04 mm can be accepted in use.
The commutator design allows machining a number of times.
The diameter must not, however, be less than 60 mm.
It is normal for machining to be carried out for each third car-
bon brush replacement.
After each machining, the Micanite between the segments
must be undercut down to a depth of 0.6 mm with a special
tool. Micanite remains must not be left on the sides of the
segments. After machining and undercutting of the Micanite,
the segment edges must be chamfered. When this work has
been completed, the space between the segments and the
segment sides must be as shown in the illustration below.

4 Storage/Transport
If a motor is to be stored for a longer period, for example,
more than a month, it must be packed so that it will not be
damaged during storage.
The motor components that can be damaged if the motor is
not stored correctly are the carbon brushes, commutator and
bearings. The motor can be damaged by:
• Dust and other contamination.
• Moisture and condensation if the motor is stored in a loca-
tion with large temperature variations.
• Rust, especially if the motor is stored in a location with cor-
rosive gases.
• Mechanical influences such as vibration.

4.1 Storage
The following actions are recommended for storage:
• Lift all four carbon brushes.
• Wrap the armature in paper or other protective material.
• Store the motor as an assembled unit.
• Wrap the motor in dust and moisture protective material.
• Avoid placing the motor where it can be subjected to vibra-
tion.
The motor must be stored in a room with even temperature.
Condensation in the windings can be avoided by keeping the
winding temperature a few degrees higher than the surround-
ing temperature.
Oxidation, especially on the commutator, can appear even
under normal storage conditions. These problems are wors-
ened if the air contains corrosive gases. These problems are
especially prevalent if sulphur dioxide (SO2), chlorine (Cl2)
and ammoniac (NH3) exists.
Vibration causes damage to the motor bearings. This can be
avoided if the armature is rotated a few turns each month.
Check that the motor shaft ends and other clean metal sur-
faces are covered with a film of rust protective oil.

1 General
The drive motor, drive gearbox and brake are combined as a
complete drive assembly.
The drive motor is a compound type direct current motor, i.e.
it is comprised of an stator winding connected in series with
the armature and an stator winding, called a shunt field, which
is connected in parallel with the armature.
The armature current is fed by four traditional type carbon
brushes which lie against the armature commutator.
The rotation direction of the motor is changed by changing the
armature current flow direction with relation to the stator wind-
ings.
In the illustration below, A1 and A2 are the armature connec-
tions, D1 and D2 are the series field connections and E1and
E2 are the shunt field connections. The motor rotation direc-
tion is changed by reversing armature connections A1 and
A2.

1.1 Mechanical construction


The motor is comprised of a yoke into which the field windings
are mounted. At each end of the yoke there is a bearing end
bracket in which the armature bearings are mounted.
A brush bridge assembly with four spring loaded carbon
brushes is mounted on the bearing box at the motor commu-
tator end. The carbon brushes sit against the armature com-
mutator and transfer the armature current to armature
windings.
Each of the motor windings is accessible via external connec-
tions.

• Remove the tiller arm bracket and the brake unit from the
motor. Remove the cover over the motor compartment
together with the tiller arm bracket.

• Lift the motor carefully straight up, without damaging the


sealing surfaces to the drive gearbox.
• Protect the drive gearbox from contamination by placing a
suitable cover over the opening, for example, a piece of
plastic.
The necessary service and repairs can now be carried out on
the motor.

2.2 Re-assembly
• Lift the motor carefully down into the drive gearbox. The
four studs on the motor must fit into the corresponding
holes on the drive gearbox. In order for the motor to fit fully
into the drive gearbox upper surface, the drive gearbox
must sometimes be rotated by hand so that the motor shaft
gear engages with the drive gearbox gear.
Care must be taken that the motor O ring seal is not dam-
aged.
• Tighten the nuts on the studs to the prescribed torque,
26.6 Nm.
• Replace the tiller arm bracket and brake unit. Adjust the
brake as per instructions. Screw down the cover and con-
nect the cables previously disconnected. Check that the
polarity is correct.
• After the completed re-assembly, the brake function must
be tested before the truck is moved.

3 Service/Repairs
3.1 Cleaning
For correct functioning, it is important that the motor is kept as
clean as possible. The motor and motor compartment must
be regularly checked for dust, oil and other contamination.
If the motor windings and interior is dry, use a vacuum
cleaner with suitable mouthpiece to clean the motor. Com-
pressed air can be used in combination with a vacuum
cleaner. In this case the compressed air must be clean and
dry.
If the windings have a coating, use a lint-free cloth. The cloth
can be dampened with an organic and volatile cleaning agent
if necessary, that can dissolve grease and which will not dam-
age the windings. The cleaning agent must not be used in
such quantity that it can enter the motor.
Remains of cleaning agent must be removed with a suitable
solvent if an oily surface is left.
If the motor parts are badly dirtied it can be necessary to
spray them with a solvent. It is especially important for the
armature that the solvent is applied in such a way that dis-
solved dirt etc. does not enter into the motor section.
One method of cleaning the armature is to dip it in solvent. If
this is done the armature must always be heat dried. Good
ventilation is necessary during drying and it must continue
until a number of insulation measurements give similar and
approved results.

• Remove the brake disk collar by first removing the circlip


and washer at the end of the armature shaft. The collar
can then be lifted off. It may need to be pulled off with a
suitable tool.
• Remove the four plugs that cover the carbon brushes, lift
the springs to one side and lift up the carbon brushes.
• Dismantle the bearing bracket (11) at the commutator end
together with the brush holder (03) and carbon brushes
(02) by removing the six hexagon socket bolts. Lay the
motor down with a fixed stop against the edge of the bear-
ing shield and then strike the armature shaft carefully with
a rubber mallet.

• Remove the bearing shield (25) on the drive end together


with the armature (09). Be careful not to damage the motor
windings when the armature is removed from the motor
yoke.
• After removing the motor bearing shield and removing the
armature from the motor yoke, the gear wheel on the arma-
ture drive end must be removed. This is done by removing
the gear wheel nut and then pulling the gear wheel off with
a puller. Note that the gear wheel is locked with Loctite
onto the armature shaft.
• Remove next the inner circlip and washer under it. Pull the
armature shaft out of the bearing (24).
• Remove the outer circlip and washer and remove the bear-
ing from the bearing shield.
• Remove the bearing shield seal (26) and clean the bearing
shield carefully.
• Install a new seal in the bearing bracket.

3.3 Refitting of motor


• Reassemble the motor in the reverse order to dismantling.
Check carefully that the armature can move freely in the
rotation direction and that the carbon brushes are lying
against the commutator.
• Check the insulation resistance of the motor (between
respective windings and the motor yoke). For a new motor
this must be between 2 and –3 Mohm. A used motor has
been subjected to contamination and in this case a resist-
ance of down to approx. 1 Mohm can be acceptable.
• Install a new O ring in the drive shaft end bearing shield
and a new seal in the bearing shield collar.

3.4 Armature bearings


The armature bearings are comprised of a permanently lubri-
cated and double sealed bearing, type 6204-2Z/C3 in the
armature commutator end and a single sealed 6205/2Z-C3
bearing in the armature drive end.
The grease used in both bearings is high temperature type
HT24.
The bearing open spaces are partially filled with Texaco SRi2
grease from the factory to protect the inside of the bearing
against the penetration of dust and contamination.
The life of the bearing is between 5000 and 20 000 hours,
depending upon the speeds and other stresses it has been
subjected to.
During heavy loading the bearing temperature can rise to
180°. An abnormal temperature increase, or excessive noise,
indicates insufficient lubrication or bearing wear.

3.4.1 Changing the drive end bearing


Clean the new bearing and fill to max. 50% with grease, type
HT24. Install the bearing in the bearing shield with the
unsealed side in toward the shield. Put the washer between
the circlip and bearing in place and lock the bearing with the
outer circlip.
Install the armature in the bearing shield and lock it in place
with the washer and circlip.
Remove all grease and other contamination from the arma-
ture shaft gear wheel cone. The same applies for the gear
wheel inner surface.
Apply a film of Loctite 603 onto the armature shaft cone and
install the gear wheel onto the shaft. Put the washer in place,
apply a film of Loctite 243 onto the shaft threads and screw
on the nut. The nut must be tightened to the prescribed
torque, 30 Nm, and then locked with a centre punch.
During refitting of the armature and bearing shield, care must
be taken not to damage the field and armature windings.

3.4.2 Changing the commutator end bearing


After the commutator end bearing shield has been removed,
the bearings can be removed from the armature shaft with a
suitable extractor.
The new bearing is installed onto the armature shaft with the
aid of a brass drift.

3.5 Carbon brushes and brush holder


The following checks must be carried out during the service
and repair of the motor:
• The brush bridge and brush holder must be firmly
attached.
• The carbon brushes must move freely in their holders.
• The brush holders must be free from contamination.
• Worn brushes must be replaced. The minimum permissible
length of the carbon brushes is 11 mm.
The carbon brushes are normally supplied with a preformed
radius that corresponds to the commutator radius.

3.5.1 Changing carbon brushes


Carbon brushes can be replaced without the drive unit need-
ing to be removed from the truck.
To change the four carbon brushes, the plastic plugs that
cover the brushes in the motor yoke must be removed. Then
remove the screw that holds the cable for the brush in ques-
tion. When the cable has been disconnected, lift the spring to
one side so that the carbon brush can be withdrawn from the
holder.
Refitting is carried out by installing a new carbon brush into
the holder, lifting back the spring and then reconnecting the
carbon brush connection cable.
After fitting, check carefully that the carbon brush can move
freely in the holder and that it is lying correctly against the
commutator.

3.6 Commutator
The commutator should normally have an even colour over
the whole surface. The appearance of the commutator can,
however, vary quite considerably, depending on how it has
been used. If the commutator shows burn marks or uneven
black coloured areas, it must be cleaned with fine glass
paper. Emery cloth must never be used.

3.6.1 Turning the commutator


If it should become necessary to machine the commutator on
a lathe, this must be done accurately and carefully.
To achieve an acceptable result the cutting speed must be at
least 200 m/min if a hard metal tool is used. If a diamond cut-
ting tool is used, which will produce the best results, the cut-
ting speed must be considerably higher.
Feed must be between 0.08 - 0.1 mm and cutting depth must
not exceed 0.05 mm.
After machining, the commutator eccentricity must not
exceed 0.02 mm and surface unevenness must be less than
4 µm. An eccentricity of max. 0.04 mm can be accepted in
use.
The commutator design allows for machining a number of
times. The diameter must not, however, be less than 60 mm.
It is normal for machining to be carried out for each third car-
bon brush replacement.
After each machining, the Micanite between the segments
must be undercut down to a depth of 0.6 mm with a special
tool. Micanite remains must not be left on the sides of the
segments. After machining and undercutting of the Micanite,
the segment edges must be chamfered. When this work has
been completed, the space between the segments and the
segment sides must be as shown in the illustration below.

4 Storage/Transport
If a motor is to be stored for a longer period, for example,
more than a month, it must be packed so that it will not be
damaged during storage.
The motor components that can be damaged if the motor is
not stored correctly are the carbon brushes, commutator and
bearings. The motor can be damaged by:
• Dust and other contamination.
• Moisture and condensation if the motor is stored in a loca-
tion with large temperature variations.
• Rust, especially if the motor is stored in a location with cor-
rosive gases.
• Mechanical influences such as vibration.

4.1 Storage
The following actions are recommended for storage:
• Lift all four carbon brushes.
• Wrap the armature in paper or other protective material.
• Store the motor as an assembled unit.
• Wrap the motor in dust and moisture protective material.
• Avoid placing the motor where it can be subjected to vibra-
tion.
The motor must be stored in a room with even temperature.
Condensation in the windings can be avoided by keeping the
winding temperature a few degrees higher than the surround-
ing temperature.
Oxidation, especially on the commutator, can appear even
under normal storage conditions. These problems increase if
the air contains corrosive gases. These problems are espe-
cially prevalent if sulphur dioxide (SO2), chlorine (Cl2) and
ammoniac (NH3) exists.
Vibration causes damage to the motor bearings. This can be
avoided if the armature is rotated a few turns each month.
Check that the motor shaft ends and other clean metal sur-
faces are covered with a film of rust protective oil.

3 Description of function

3.1 General
The BT PPT 1400MX/1600MX/2000MX controller contains a
logic-unit (micro processor) which detects signals from micro-
switches, armature voltage, etc. The controller’s inputs and
outputs are equiped with connectors for connection/discon-
nection of cables.
The controller is equipped with a green LED (labelled PWR/
ERROR), which indicates correct main voltage. The LED for
PWR/ERROR also indicates faults in the emergency stop cir-
cuit or in the contactor circuits.
The inputs are suited for the 24 V voltage level and will draw
a certain current in order to clean the opening contacts and,
also, to indicate input signals with green LED’s.
The contactor outputs are electronically short circuit proof
and indicate output signals with red LED’s. The drive contac-
tor outputs are controlled by transistors and will receive the
full main voltage when the current is turned on, i.e. 24 V and
after the contactors have closed, the voltage will drop to half
this value, i.e. 12 V.
In addition to signals from switches, the drive motor’s arma-
ture voltage is monitored, so that speed step 3 will be
engaged at a pre-determined voltage level or, alternatively,
after a fixed time lapse.
The description is divided into the different phases which cor-
respond to the operational sequense steps. For each
sequense step the correct LED-pattern is shown below. A
filled circle denotes a LED emitting light.

3.10 Reversing/ motor brake fork direction


to steering wheel direction

When reversing, the speed control is moved from fork direc-


tion to steering wheel direction. S15 returns to the neutral
position when S16 closes. The current in the series field
causes the motor to work as a generator since the drive
wheel rotates in the "wrong direction". The micro-processor
detects the negative potential over terminal 408 and inter-
rupts the holding voltage to K17 and K18, causing these to
open.
The motor is now braking in the 1:st speed.
When the drive wheel rotates in the "right direction" and the
potential over terminal 408 becomes positive, acceleration is
done in the usual way.
During the braking sequence, the motor current passes F10,
R11, R12, K13, A1-A2, K13 and the series field D2-40 to the
negative pole.

3.11 Reversing/ motor brake steering


wheel direction to fork direction

When reversing, the butterfly is moved from the steering


wheel direction to fork direction. S16 returns to the neutral
position when S15 closes. The current in the series field
causes the motor to work as a generator since the drive
wheel rotates in the "wrong direction". The micro-processor
detects the negative potential over terminal 408 and inter-
rupts the holding voltage to K17 and K18, causing these to
open.
The motor is now braking in the 1:st speed.
When the drive wheel rotates in the "right direction" and the
potential over terminal 408 becomes positive, acceleration is
done in the usual way.
During the braking sequense, the motor current passes F10,
R11, R12, K11, A2-A1, K11 and the series field D2-40 to the
battery negative pole.

3.12 Safety reversing

Possible breakages in the cables for safety reversing are


always checked by the micro-processor, which sends a small
current through the circuit comprising terminal 110, cable 32,
S20, cable 32 and terminal 111.
S20 is activated causing terminal 110 to become positive and
the micro-processor now interrupts the holding voltage to K13
and K18, which opens. At the same time the processor pro-
vides voltage to terminal 401 to K11 and terminal 403 to K17.
The motor is now in the motor braking stage and will subse-
quently accelerate in the fork direction until S20 returns to the
neutral position. Safety reversing is done using the 2:nd
speed.

001 200,201,202

When S20 returns to neutral position, (+) voltage will be inter-


rupted to terminal 110, the micro-processor will interrupt the
holding voltage to terminals 401 and 403 to K11 and K17 and
the truck will stop.
In order to be able to start again if S16 still is activated, the
micro-processor must be returned to the inactive position by
letting the speed-control return to the neutral position, after
which a new direction of travel can be chosen.

3.13 Lifting of the forks

The micro-switch S52 closes. K30 receives (+) voltage via


terminal 105, terminal 203, by use of a jumper or via the bat-
tery indicator, terminal 201 and terminal 405 and LED’s 105
and 405 lights up. (-) return via terminal 409 and 207. K30
closes and pump motor M3 starts.

3.14 Driving in fork direction in 3:rd speed


and simultaneously lifting the forks

In order to reduce the load on the motor fuse when driving in


3:rd speed in fork direction and simultaneously lifting the
forks, the micro-processor interrupts the holding voltage to
K18 during the time S52 is activated.
When lifting is completed and S52 is not activated, the micro-
processor will activate the 3:rd speed, K18, with a normal
delay time.

3.18 Fault indication

During operation, the cables to S20 are checked. If breakage


is detected, the LED labelled PWR/ERROR will flash. The
truck is fully manouverable as long as S10 is closed. When
the operating arm is released, or the brake is activated in the
lower position, and S10 interrupts the voltage, the micro-proc-
essor will not permit further operation of the truck by interrupt-
ing the output signal to all drive contactors.
PLEASE NOTE! The interruption can be deactivated for tem-
porarily driving to a service area (key off and then on). If the
brake is activated, deactivation of the interruption must be
done again.
The LED labelled PWR/ERROR also flashes when a short cir-
cuit occurs at the contactor outputs 401-404. After the fault is
repaired, the LED will cease to flash.

Battery voltage to K13 via terminal 403. A1.3 now gives


(-)- return to K13, (-)input on terminal 402, LED 402 lights up.
Depending on the position of the speed control (R1) and
adjustment of potentiometer RV1 will A1.8 obtaine a voltage
between 4,8-0,25 V.
The motor current now passes through F10, the series field
D2-D1, K13, the armature A1-A2 and K13 to battery negative
via A1.

2.7 Reversing/motor brake fork direction


to steer wheel direction
S15 returns to neutral position while S16 closes. The current
in the series fiels causes the motor to work as a generator
since the drive wheel rotates in the ”wrong direction”. The
transistor controller detects the generated current at connec-
tion A2, and reduces the series field current to 60 A.
When the drive wheel rotates in the ”right direction” and the
potential at connection A2 becomes positive, acceleration is
done according to adjusted values of current limit and accel-
eration.
During braking sequence, the armature current passes in the
circuit A1-A2, K13, A2, the brake diode of the transistor con-
troller, M- and K13.

2.8 Reversing/motor brake steer wheel


direction to fork direction
S16 returns to neutral position while S15 closes. The current
in the series fiels causes the motor to work as a generator
since the drive wheel rotates in the ”wrong direction”. The
transistor controller detects the generated current at connec-
tion A2, and reduces the series field current to 60 A.
When the drive wheel rotates in the ”right direction” and the
potential at connection A2 becomes positive, acceleration is
done according to adjusted values of current limit and accel-
eration.
During braking sequence, the armature current passes in the
circuit A2-A1, K11, A2, the brake diode of the transistor con-
troller, M- and K11.

2.9 Switch for safety reversing

Possible breakages in the wiring for safety reversing is conti-


nously checked by the transistor controller, who sends a
small pulsed current through the circuit A1.10, terminal 416,
111, wire 32, S20, wire 32, terminal 110, 415 and A1.13.
S20 is activated causing terminal 110, 415 and A1.13 to
become positive, A1 now interrupts the (-)return to K13 which
opens. At the same time will A1 provide (-) at A1.3 to K11,
LED 401 lights up.
The motor will now be connected for motor braking at maxi-
mum current limit 150 A, and subsequently accelerate in the
fork direction until S20 returns to its neutral position.
When S20 returns to neutral position, (+) disappears from ter-
minal 110, A1 will interrupt the (-)return at A1.3 to K11 and
the truck will stop.
In order to be able to start again if S16 still is activated, the
transistor controller must be returned to the inactive position
by letting the speed control return to the neutral position, after
which a new drive direction can be chosen.

2 Operating description
2.1 General
The transistor regulator A1 regulates the speed variably up to
maximum speed. When the truck is started the regulator
checks the closing sequence for the microswitches in the cir-
cuit. The regulator is equipped with a LED that displays the
system status.
The electrical system has a connection card A5 to group all
the connections to the control card for input and output sig-
nals to the transistor regulator. The connection card is
equipped with LEDs to indicate incoming and outgoing sig-
nals and a potentiometer to adjust the maximum speed.
REFERENCES
For further information on transistor regulation and the elec-
tronic card, see C-code 5460 and 5710.

2.2 Description
The description is divided into different phases that corre-
spond to the operating sequence stages. The correct LED
patterns are shown below for each sequence stage. A filled
circle represents the LED when on.

2.7 Reversing/speed reduction, direction


of forks to direction of steer wheel
• S15 returns to the neutral position and S16 makes. The
current in the series field makes the motor act as a genera-
tor as the drive wheel is rotating in the “wrong direction”.
• The transistor regulator senses the generated current on
connection A2, and reduces the series field current to
60 A. When the drive wheel rotates in the “right direction”
and the potential on connection A2 is positive, acceleration
occurs according to the adjusted values for the current limit
and acceleration.
• The rotor current in the circuit passes A1-A2, K13, A2,
transistor regulator’s brake diode, M- and K13 during the
braking sequence.

small pulsed current through A1.10, connection pin 416,
111, line 32, S20, line 32, connection pin 110, 415 and
A1.13.
• S20 is activated and makes connections 110, 415 and
A1.13 positive, A1 now cuts the (-) return to K13, which
breaks. At the same time A1 will deliver (-) at A1.3 to K11,
LED 401 comes on.
• The motor will now be connected for speed reduction with
a maximum current of 150 A. The truck will then accelerate
in the direction of the forks until S20 returns to its neutral
position.
• When S20 returns to its neutral position, the (+) disappears
from connection pin 110, A1 cuts the (-) return on A1.3 to
K11 and the truck stops.

1 General
This instrument consists of a single, quartz, hourmeter, H, a
10 bar multi color battery discharge controller (BC), and a
lockout relay. The lift lockout relay is operating in such a way
that if there is a current passing through the relay contacts
when the instrument registers empty battery, the contacts
stay closed until the current ceases. Meaning that there will
be no lockout of the lift during the lift operation. The hourme-
ter features a liguid crystal dispay (LCD) which has six seg-
ment digits with a decimal point on last digit. This provoides a
reading of 0.1 hours or 6 minutes.

2.1.2 Memory Retention


The instrument contains an internal battery which allows (BC)
memory retention when external power is remowed. Typical
battery life is 10 years. The hourmeter has a solid state non
volatile memory which does not require battery backup.

3 Battery Controller

3.1 General
The (BC) measures the state of the battery. The charge is
indicated on a column of ten LEDs.
Right: 1 – fully-charged battery.
Left: 0 – empty battery.
When the battery is fully charged, the LED to the right will be
lit. As the battery discharges, LEDs further and further to the
left will stop glowing, to show the current discharge level.
When the battery is 70% discharged, the two LEDs from the
left will flash alternately to warn the driver that he should
recharge the battery. When the battery is 80% discharged,
the last LED is lit and the relay is opening.

3.1.1 Discharge Adjustment


The BC features an adjustable discharge setting. The setting
designators K-U appear at the rear of the gage at the peri-
phery of the adjusting screw. The inital factory setting is N,
but will depend on the battery and machine type.
The given settings are approximate and might need to be fine
tuned to get a 100% correct lockout for a specific application.
A hydrometer must be used for exact adjustment. When the
two lower LEDs flash, the density of the battery fluid should not
fall below 1.14. If the LEDs start to flash at a higher density the
discharge potentiometer U must be turned anticlockwise (to-
wards K). If both diodes flash at a density lower than 1.14, turn
the potentiometer clockwise (towards P).
If necessary, adjust one step at a time. Charge the battery and
drive the truck until the instrument starts to flash again. Meas-
ure once again using the hydrometer to ensure the adjustment
is correct. If not, the procedure must be repeated until the set-
ting is correct.
The letter designation in the table below shows the voltage
value per cell (VPC) with a discharged battery.

NOTE:
The discharge adjustments can be made at any time during
a working cycle before lift lockout. However, discharge pot.
adjustments made late in a working cycle have little or no
effect in delaying the lift lockout in that particular working
cycle. Normally discharge pot. adjustments are made
before or at the beginning of a working cycle to effectively
change the discharge profile of that working cycle. Once lift
lockout does occur, the gauge must be reset before dis-
charge pot. adjustments can have an effect.

3.2 Reset
The instrument is supplied with a fixed reset voltage setting.
This factory set, reset voltage brings the BC to full regardless
of its previous level. The reset will be done when the battery
has been charged and connected to the machine.

3.3 Keyswitch
The electronics of the BC and the LCD of the hourmeter are
energized as long as the machine battery remains connected
to the gauge. The display of the BC is turned on and off by
the keyswitch.
The keyswitch also enables timing function of the hourmeter.
With the keyswitch ”on”, the hourmeter can be activated by
the connection No 1 at the rear of the BC. With the keyswitch
”off” the hourmeter will not respond to the connection No 1
and the LCD of the hourmeter will be off.

3.4 Hourmeter
Hourmeter operation is indicated by flashing of the hourglass
icon on the face of the LCD. The flash rate is 15 times a
minute with a duty cycle of 3 seconds on and 1 second off.
When the hourmeter is not in operation the icon is visible but
does not flash.

4 Trouble shooting
This section is separated into two parts: battery discharge
indicator and hour meter.

4.1 Battery Discharge Indicator


4.1.1 No reset
There are two ways to reset the instrument.
Using the open circuit reset, the instrument must first have a
break in the power and then measure a voltage greater than
2.09 volts per cell across its pin 7 or 8 and pin 5.
Verify that a leakage voltage is not present across these ter-
minals by disconnecting one of the lines supplying battery
voltage to the instrument.
Replace this connection and measure the voltage across the
gauge at its pin 7 or 8 and pin 5. It must be above 2.09 volts
per cell. If it is and the gauge does not reset to indicate full
charge, the instrument is defective.
The second method of resetting the instrument is by using the
high voltage reset. This reset function also has two require-
ments to reset the instrument. The voltage across pin 7 or 8
and pin 5 must be above 2.35 volts per cell and must remain
above this level for six minutes continuously. Measure the
voltage across these pins and verify that it is greater than
2.35 volts per cell. Also verify that it remains above this level
for a minimum of six minutes. If these two conditions are met
and the instrument does not reset it is defective.

4.1.2 Always resets after break in power


If the voltage of the batteries to which the instrument is con-
nected is below 2.09 volts per cell and the gauge was not for-
merly indicating full, it should not reset to full after a break in
power. If it does, its memory cell is depleted.
This will not affect the discharge function of the instrument if it
is always connected to a fully charged battery and allowed to
track its discharge without break in power.
NOTE:
New instruments are shipped from the factory with a full
reading in their memory. The first time the instrument is
connected to the truck’s battery it will always show a full
charge. It is either resetting to full because the battery is
fully charged, or if the battery is not fully charged it is
repeating the information in its memory which is a full read-
ing.

Battery controller/hourmeter

4.1.3 No discharge, gauge does not run down


The instrument monitors loaded battery voltages. If con-
nected to a partially discharged battery, it will not run down
until it observes the loaded voltages of that battery. A working
time of at least 30 minutes is required for the gauge to run
from full to empty.
To verify that the instrument will run down measure across
pin 7 or 8 and pin 5. A voltage less than 2.0 volts per cell is
required to bring the gauge indication downwards from a full
reading.

4.1.4 No lockout
The two far left red LEDs on the LED display must be fashing
alternately for lockout to occur.
The J output functions like an SCR. At lockout pins 3 and 4
Vad är J ? will open as long as lift is inactive. To test this output remove
SCR? the wire leading to pin 3 when at lockout. Replace the wire
and then try to lift. If the lift ceases to operate the instrument
is good.
After replacing the wire if the lift operates, the instrument is
defective, or there could be a leakage current somewhere in
lift circuit. Check across the lift switch.

4.1.5 No lift
First verify that the gauge is not at lockout with its two red
LEDs alternately flashing. The relay outputs should be closed
above lockout and should read 0 ohms with an ohmmeter
across pins 3 and 4. If not test the lift switch and contactor.

4.1.6 Early lockout


It is very important that the instrtument is installed so that its
pins are reading the true battery voltage. Any voltage drops
caused by long lines, switches, fuses or poor connections will
be seen by the instrument as a deeper discharged battery.
To check for voltage drops use a voltmeter with its positive
lead on the battery’s positive terminal and the meter’s nega-
tive lead on pin 7 or 8 (whichever pin B+ is connected to).
Load the battery and record this measurement. Repeat this
procedure with the voltmeter’s positive lead on pin 5 and its
negative lead on the battery’s negative terminal and record
the voltage measured. Add the two voltage readings. This
total should be less than 1% of the nominal battery voltage.
Voltages higher than this will cause the instrument to calcu-
late battery state-of-charge from incorrect readings.

4.1.7 LEDs don’t light


The battery discharge indicator LEDs are illuminated by the
keyswitch, pin 2. Verify that B+ is present across pin 2 and
pin 5. If voltage is present and the LEDs do not light the
instrument is defective.

4.2 Hour meter


4.2.1 No display
The LCD of the hour meter will illuminate when power is
applied at pin 7 or 8 and pin 5. If voltage is measured across
these pins and the LCD does not turn on the instrument is
defective.

4.2.2 Hour glass icon does not flash


If the icon does not flash the hour meter is not accumulating
time. The keyswitch pin 2 must be on (at B+), pin 7 or 8 must
be connected to B+, and one or both of the hour meter lines
must be active. If both the keyswitch is on and one or both
inputs are correct and the hour meter icon does not flash the
instrument is defective.

4.2.3 Hour meter glass icon always flashes


When the icon is flashing the hour meter is accumulating
time. Turn the truck’s keyswitch off. This should remove volt-
age from pin 2 of the instrument. Should voltage be present at
pin 2 and the hour meter’s icon is continues to flash the
instrument is defective.

5 Adjustment panel

The adjustment panel is located on top of the controller,


under a sliding protective cover. The panel provides access
to a set of adjustable potentiometers, a connector for a hand-
held terminal and the STATUS LED.

5.1 Adjustable potentiometers


MAIN and ACCEL potentiometers can be adjusted with a
screwdriver within the range given in the technical specifica-
tion.
NOTE:
In the BT-version of the Curtis 1207 are only two of the
potentiometers in operation, MAIN and ACCEL. The other
three potentiometers are disabled from factory.

5.2 Connection of handheld terminal


To adjust the parameters with the handheld terminal the cor-
responding potentiometer must be set to ”off”.

6 Maintenance
There are no user-servicable parts inside the transistor con-
troller.
NOTE:
No attempt should be made to open the controller. OPEN-
ING THE CONTROLLER WILL VOID THE WARRANTY!
It is however recommended that the controller exterior be
cleaned periodically. When cleaning the controller gives a
good opportunity to check the controller’s diagnostic history
file with the handheld terminal, if available.

6.1 Safety
The controller is inherently a high power device. When work-
ing around any battery powered vehicle, proper safety pre-
cautions should be taken. These include, but are not limited
to: proper training, wearing eye protection, avoiding loose
clothing, removing watches and jewelry, and using insulated
wrenches.
WARNING
Risk of short circuits.
Remove all watches and jewelry and always use insulated
tools.

6.2 Cleaning
Although the controller requires virtually no maintenance if
properly installed, the following minor maintenance is recom-
mended on a regular 250 hours basis.
• Remove power by disconnecting the battery.
• Discharge the capacitors in the controller, by connecting a
load (such as a contactor coil or the horn) across the con-
troller’s B+ and B- terminals, before doing any work on the
controller.
• Remove all dirt or corrosion from the bus bar area. The
controller should be wiped clean with a moist rag. Allow it
to dry before reconnecting the battery.
• Make sure the connections to the bus bars are tight. Use
two well insulated wrenches for this task in order to avoid
stressing the bus bars.

The status LED shows flashing codes to indicate the status of
the regulator. These codes are listed with an explanation in
the chapter “Maintenance”.

5. Maintenance
There are no components in the transistor regulator that may
be repaired by the user.
NOTE!
Do not attempt to open the transistor regulator.
THE WARRANTY WILL CEASES TO BE VALID IF THE REG-
ULATOR IS OPENED!
It is recommended to clean the outside of the transistor regu-
lator regularly. When the regulator is cleaned this provides an
excellent opportunity to check the regulator’s diagnosis file
using the hand terminal, if available.

5.1. Safety
The regulator is a high power component. Requisite safety
precautions should be observed when working on the battery
powered vehicle. The safety instructions comprise, among
others, suitable training, protective glasses, appropriate cloth-
ing that must not hang loosely. Remove your watch and any
jewellery. Use insulated tools.

WARNING
Risk of short-circuiting.
Remove all watches and jewellery as well as always use
insulated tools.

5.2. Cleaning
The following minimum maintenance is recommended at
intervals of 250 hours, even though the transistor regulator
dose not require any real maintenance if installed correctly.
• Switch off the voltage by disconnecting the battery.
• Discharge the capacitors in the regulator by connecting a
load, for example, a contactor coil or horn across the regu-
lator terminal connections B+ and B- before work on the
regulator is carried out.

• Remove all dirt and corrosion from around the busbars.


Wipe off the regulator with a damp cloth. Let it dry correctly
before reconnecting the battery.
• Make sure the connections to the busbars are tightened
correctly. Use two well insulated spanners to tighten the
connections so as not to load the bars.

6. Diagnosis and trouble shooting

8. Using the hand terminal


• Connect the hand terminal to the regulator’s programming
output located on the top of the adjustment panel.
• Ensure the truck’s current is switched on.
When the hand terminal is connected for the first time the
brakes’ microswitch should be open, the brakes applied, until
the terminal has gathered all the regulator parameters. When
this is complete the terminal will display the regulator’s control
number, date of manufacture and the software’s revision
code. After this display, the terminal will present a prompt for
further instructions.
The terminal has three main functions: PROGRAM, TEST
and DIAGNOSTICS.
• PROGRAM mode is used to show the terminals parame-
ters. The presented parameters can also be replaced in
this mode.
• TEST mode shows real time information about the status
of the input/output signal and the regulator’s temperature.
In the TEST mode the current point does not need to be
the first on the list, it only needs to be among the first four
displayed in the window. The test mode is usable when you
test the function of the regulator during installation and for
trouble shooting if problems occur.
• DIAGNOSTICS mode shows the current fault found by the
regulator.

8.1. Test and adjust the parameters


• Press the PROGRAM mode button. The program mode
LED comes on.

1 General
Curtis 1207A-4110 version 137197-006 is similar to Curtis
1207-1137. The difference being the potentiometers and con-
nections for the hand terminal under the sliding cover have
been removed. You must have a hand terminal to make
adjustments on 1207A. See the chapter “Curtis hand termi-
nal”.

1.1 Characteristics and functions


The model 1207A gives the driver excellent control of the drive
motor speed. The current fed to the motor is controlled by vary-
ing the pulse time, operating cycle, for the regulator’s power
semiconductors, MOSFET-transistors. This technique is called
pulse width modulation, PWM, and provides, silent, variable
speed control. Pulse width modulation also known as “chop-
ping”, is a technique that rapidly switches the battery voltage to
the motor on and off very quickly, so that the motor speed can
be controlled. Model 1207A uses high frequency PWM, 15
kHz.
During acceleration and operations at a reduced speed, the
regulator permits more current to flow to the motor than what
the battery delivers. The regulator then acts as a DC trans-
former, which takes in a low current at high voltage, full bat-
tery voltage, yet a high current strength and low voltage.
A microprocessor continuously monitors the regulator’s oper-
ation. If an error is detected a corresponding error code is dis-
played via LEDs, on top of the regulator. The diagnostic
codes shown by the LEDs are listed in the chapter “Diagnos-
tics and trouble shooting”. If the error is critical the regulator is
deactivated. Normally the error can be rectified and is only
temporary. A low voltage error e.g. disappears when the und-
ervoltage no longer exists.

5 Diagnostics and trouble shooting


5.1 Trouble shooting
A microprocessor continuously monitors the regulator’s oper-
ation. If an error is detected a corresponding error code is dis-
played via LEDs, on top of the regulator. The diagnostic
codes shown by the LEDs are listed in the chapter “Error
codes”. If the error is critical the regulator is deactivated. Nor-
mally the error can be rectified and is only temporary. A low
voltage error e.g. disappears when the undervoltage no
longer exists.
The automatic system for error detection includes:
• Contactor coils open/ short-circuited drive circuit.
• Overcurrent, contactor drive circuit/ contactor coil short-
circuited.
• Contactor welded together.
• Control of function for safety reversing.
• M-output error.

5.2 Error codes


During normal operations without any errors the STATUS
LEDs flashes approx. once per second. If the regulator
detects an error, a two digit code flashes continuously until
the error is rectified, see the table below.
If a hand terminal is used for error diagnostics, select the
DIAGNOSTIC mode; diagnostic information can then be
read-off on the display, see table below.

The BT version of regulator 1207A has SRO-type “3”. This
means that the regulator is made operational through all
inputs for KSI, brakes and forward must be made in the men-
tioned order. However, operations are permitted if a reverse
input precedes the brake input. This can be used with start of
the truck on an incline. It is this that is called “Starting on
incline”.

5.3 Testing the error detection circuits


Special materials handling directives such as nprEN1175,
demand regular testing of the transistor regulator’s error detec-
tion function. It is therefore recommended that the detection cir-
cuits are checked each time the truck is serviced as follows:
• Support the truck so that the drive wheel is free from the
ground, disconnect the battery and ensure that the ignition
switch is Off.
• Use a suspended fuse holder with a 10 A-fuse and croco-
dile clips, connected to the regulator’s M- and B connec-
tions.
• Switch On the ignition switch, release the brake and press
the throttle. The motor should not be running and the direc-
tion contactors should not be switched.
• Let the ignition switch remain On and disconnect the sus-
pended fuse. The truck’s should still not start.
• Switch the ignition on and off a few times, release the
brake and press the throttle. The truck should now work
normally.

6 Maintenance
There are no parts inside of the transistor regulator that the
user can service.
NOTE!
Do not attempt to open the transistor regulator.
IF THE REGULATOR IS OPENED THE WARRANTY CAN
CEASES TO BE VALID!
However, the outside of the transistor regulator should be
cleaned regularly. Cleaning provides an excellent opportunity to
check the regulator’s diagnostic history using the hand terminal.

6.1 Safety
High power components can be found in the regulator. Appro-
priate safety precautions must always be taken when working
on a battery powered vehicle. Safety precautions include, but
are not limited to, training, the use of protective glasses, not
wearing loosely hanging clothes. Remove watches and jewel-
lery and always use insulated tools.

WARNING
Risk of short-circuiting.
Remove watches or jewellery and always use insulated
tools.

6.2 Cleaning
Despite the regulator not requiring any maintenance if
installed correctly, it is however recommended that the follow-
ing minimum care should be carried out regularly after every
250 hours.
• Cut the voltage by disconnecting the battery.
• Discharge the capacitors in the transistor regulator by con-
necting a load for example, a contactor coil or the horn
across the regulator’s B+ and B- connections before carry-
ing out any work on the regulator.
• Remove all dirt and corrosion from around the busbars.The
regulator should be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Allow it
to dry before reconnecting the battery.
Cables are secured on the busbar by M8 bolts. Two spanners
should be used when tightening the bolts and thereby avoid
the risk of bending the busbar and applying unnecessary
strain on the connections.

8 Using the hand terminal


• Connect the hand terminal to the regulator’s programmer
socket located above the adjustment panel.
• Make sure the current to the truck is on.
The first time the hand terminal is connected to the regulator
the brake switch must be open, brakes applied, until the hand
terminal has read in all the regulator parameters. The hand
terminal then displays the regulator’s model number, date of
manufacture and the software’s version number. The hand
terminal then prompts for further instruction.
The hand terminal has three primary operating modes: PRO-
GRAM, TEST and DIAGNOSTICS.
• PROGRAM mode used to show, and change the regula-
tor’s parameters. The shown parameters can also be
changed in this mode.
• TEST mode shows real time information on the status of
the inputs, outputs and the regulator temperature. In the
TEST mode the points of interest are not always at the top
of the list. They only need to be shown among the four
rows displayed in the window. The TEST mode can be
used to check the operation of the regulator during initial
installation and for trouble shooting.
• DIAGNOSTICS mode shows the active error detected by
the regulator.
Two other operating modes can be activated SPECIAL PRO-
GRAM and SPECIAL DIAGNOSTIC.
• The SPECIAL PROGRAM mode allows a number of differ-
ent tasks including: erasing the diagnostic history file,
adjusting the display contrast, language selection, saving
settings, etc.
• In the SPECIAL DIAGNOSTICS mode the regulator’s diag-
nostic history is shown. This file contains a list of all faults
observed and saved by the regulator since the file was last
cleared.

and adjust parameters
• Press on the PROGRAM mode key. The corresponding
LED for PROGRAM operating mode comes on.
The hand terminal now shows the first four parameters.
PROGRAM See illustration below.

Parameters are shown four at a time. Each row represents


one parameter. A indicates the name of the parameter. The
arrow B indicates the parameter currently selected for adjust-
ment. C indicates the current parameter value.
Press on one of the SCROLL DISPLAY keys to show other
parameters.
Scroll the display up or down to adjust a specific parameter
so that the arrow (B) points on the actual parameter.
• Increase the value by pressing the key CHANGE VALUE
“up” or decrease it by pressing on the key
CHANGE VALUE “down”. The LEDs on these keys indi-
cate whether there is still room for adjustment, i.e. that
when the upper limit for a parameter range has been
reached, the LED on the “up” key does not come on
thereby indicating that the value cannot be further
increased. When the lower limit has been reached the LED
on the “down” key goes out.
NOTE!
As soon as a displayed parameter is modified, the new
value is transferred directly to the regulator.
See the appropriate service manual for the regulator in ques-
tion for information on parameters, standard parameter val-
ues and adjustments.

1 Controller
The BT PPT 1400MX/1600MX/2000MX controller contains a
logic-unit (micro processor) which detects signals from micro-
switches, armature voltage, etc. The controller’s inputs and
outputs are equiped with connectors for connection/discon-
nection of cables.
The controller is equipped with a green LED (labelled PWR/
ERROR), which indicates correct main voltage. The LED for
PWR/ERROR also indicates faults in the emergency stop cir-
cuit or in the contactor circuits.
The inputs are suited for the 24 V voltage level and will draw a
certain current in order to clean the opening contacts and,
also, to indicate input signals with green LED’s.
The contactor outputs are electronically short circuit proof and
indicate output signals with red LED’s. The drive contactor
outputs are controlled by transistors and will receive the full
main voltage when the current is turned on, i.e. 24 V and after
the contactors have closed, the voltage will drop to half this
value, i.e. 12 V.

In addition to signals from switches, the drive motor’s arma-


ture voltage is monitored, so that speed step 3 will be
engaged at a pre-determined voltage level or, alternatively,
after a fixed time lapse.
