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.
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.

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.
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.

2 Dismantling/Refitting
2.1 Dismantling the motor from the truck
• Open the motor compartment covers and remove the bat-
tery cable shoe.
• Lift the truck and place the drive wheel in the cradle (see
chapter ”Special tools”).
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.

• Remove the four plugs that cover the carbon brushes, lift
the springs to one side and lift up the carbon brushes.
• 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, 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.

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.
5
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.

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.

Battery controller/hourmeter
Valid from serial number:
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 Electrical
2.1 Voltage
The instrument is supplied as a pin selectable dual voltage
unit with the voltage of 24/48 VDC.
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.

NOTE:
The instrument can be connected differently in different
trucks, please see diagrams in the electrical descriptions
C-code 5000.
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.
4.1.4 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.

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.
