ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The machine electrical system consists of the


batteries, electrical drive motor, hydraulic pump
motor, power control panel and related
components. This section includes information on
these components and their troubleshooting.

BATTERY

The batteries are unique in that they hold their


power for long periods of time. The lifetime of the
batteries is limited by the number of charges the
batteries receive. To get the most life from the
batteries, charge them when the battery discharge
indicator flashes.

Periodically clean the top surface of the batteries


and the terminals, and check for loose
connections. Use a strong solution of baking soda
and water. Brush the solution sparingly over the
battery tops, terminals, and cable clamps.

Use a wire brush to clean the terminal posts and


the cable connectors. After cleaning, apply a
coating of clear battery post protectant to the
terminals and the cable connectors.

Keep the tops of the batteries clean and dry. Keep


all metallic objects off the top of the batteries,
which may cause a short circuit. Replace any
worn or damaged wires.

Check the electrolyte level in each battery after


charging and every 50 hours of operation. Never
add acid to the batteries, only distilled water. Keep
the battery caps on the batteries at all times
except when adding water or taking hydrometer
readings.

FOR SAFETY: When Servicing Machine,


Avoid Contact With Battery Acid.

355E MM313 (12--96) 4-3


ELECTRICAL
Measuring the specific gravity using a hydrometer
is a way to determine the charge level and
condition of the batteries. If one or more of the
battery cells reads lower than the other battery
cells (0.050 or more), the cell is damaged,
shorted, or is about to fail.

NOTE: Do not take readings immediately after


adding distiled water. If the water and acid are not
thoroughly mixed, the readings may not be
accurate. Check the hydrometer readings against
the following chart to determine the remaining
battery charge level:
08248

Specific Gravity Battery


at 27˚ C (80˚ F) Condition
1.315 100% charged
1.264 75% charged
1.213 50% charged
1.162 25% charged
1.110 Discharged

NOTE: If the readings are taken when the battery


electrolyte is any temperature other than 27_ C
(80_ F), the reading must be temperature
corrected. Add or subtract to the specific gravity
reading 0.004, 4 points, for each 6_ C (10_ F)
above or below 27_ C (80_ F).

CHARGING THE BATTERIES


1. Drive the machine to a flat, dry surface in a
well ventilated area.

2. Turn the machine power off and set the


machine parking brake.

FOR SAFETY: Before Leaving Or


Servicing Machine; Stop On Level
Surface, Set Parking Brake, Turn Off
Machine And Remove Key.

3. Open the side door, battery cover, and lift 08236


the seat to get access to the batteries.

4-4 355E MM313 (12--96)


ELECTRICAL
4. Check the water level in all the battery cells.
If the level is low, add just enough distilled
water to cover the plates. DO NOT
OVERFILL. The batteries can overflow
during charging due to expansion.

NOTE: Make sure the battery caps are in place


while charging.

08247

5. Unplug the machine connector from the


battery connector

08242

6. Plug the charger connector into the battery


connector.

WARNING: Batteries Emit Hydrogen


Gas. Explosion Or Fire Can Result.
Keep Sparks And Open Flame Away.
Keep Covers Open When Charging.

7. The optional TENNANT charger will start 08239

automatically. When the batteries are fully


charged, the optional TENNANT charger will
automatically turn off.

355E MM313 (12--96) 4-5


ELECTRICAL
8.Unplug the charger connector from the
battery connector on the machine.

HYDRAULICS

HYDRAULIC FLUID RESERVOIR

The reservoir is located under the battery cover,


near the left hand battery.

Mounted on top of the reservoir is a filler cap with


a built-in breather and fluid level dipstick. Replace
the cap every 800 hours of operation.

Check the hydraulic fluid level every 100 hours of


operation. Make sure the hopper is down when
checking hydraulic fluid level. The end of the
dipstick is marked with FULL and ADD levels to
indicate the level of hydraulic fluid in the reservoir.

Lubricate the filler cap gasket with a film of


hydraulic fluid before putting the cap back on the
reservoir.

ATTENTION! Do not overfill the


hydraulic fluid reservoir or operate the
machine with a low level of hydraulic
fluid in the reservoir. Damage to the
machine hydraulic system may result.

Drain and refill the hydraulic fluid reservoir with


new hydraulic fluid every 800 hours of operation.

The hydraulic fluid filter is located behind the


vacuum fan and hopper lift cylinder. Replace the
filter element every 800 hours of operation.

The reservoir has a built-in strainer outlet that


filters hydraulic fluid before it enters the system.
Replace the strainer every 800 hours of operation.

355E MM313 (12--96) 5-3


HYDRAULICS
TO DRAIN HYDRAULIC FLUID RESERVOIR
AND REPLACE FILTER ELEMENT
1. Stop the machine and set the parking brake.

FOR SAFETY: Before Leaving Or


Servicing Machine; Stop On Level
Surface, Set Parking Brake, Turn Off
Machine And Remove Key.

2. Wait for the hydraulic fluid to cool down.

3. Unthread and discard the hydraulic fluid filter


element. Hydraulic fluid will drain through
the filter head. Discard the used hydraulic
fluid. Loosen the breather-filler cap.

NOTE: Be aware the hydraulic filter is lower than


the reservoir. All fluid will drain from the reservoir.
Discard all hydraulic fluid drained from the
system. The fluid may contain foreign material
harmful to the hydraulic system.

4. Apply a thin coat of hydraulic fluid to the seal


of the new hydraulic fluid filter element.

TO FILL HYDRAULIC FLUID RESERVOIR
ATTENTION! Use only new, approved
hydraulic fluid to fill the hydraulic fluid
reservoir. Do not overfill.

1. Remove the reservoir breather-filler cap.

2. Pour new, approved hydraulic fluid through a


200 mesh screened funnel and into the
reservoir.

reservoir is between the ADD and the FULL
range. Do not overfill.

NOTE: Do not overfill the hydraulic fluid reservoir.


Hydraulic fluid expands as it reaches its normal
operating temperature. Always allow for
expansion when filling the reservoir.

5. Put the reservoir breather-filler cap on the


reservoir.

6. Start machine and operate all the hydraulic


components.

HYDRAULICS

HYDRAULIC FLUID

The quality and condition of the hydraulic fluid


play a very important role in how well the machine
operates. TENNANT hydraulic fluid is specially
selected to meet the needs of TENNANT
machines.

TENNANT hydraulic fluids provide a longer life for


the hydraulic components. There are two fluids
available for different temperature ranges:

TENNANT part no. Ambient Temperature


65869 above 7_ C (45_ F)
65870 below 7_ C (45_ F)

The higher temperature fluid has a higher


viscosity and should not be used at the lower
temperatures. Damage to the hydraulic pumps
may occur because of improper lubrication.

The lower temperature fluid is a thinner fluid for


colder temperatures.

If a locally-available hydraulic fluid is used, make


sure the specifications match TENNANT hydraulic
fluid specifications. Using substitute fluids can
cause premature failure of hydraulic components.

ATTENTION! Hydraulic components


depend on system hydraulic fluid for
internal lubrication. Malfunctions,
accelerated wear, and damage will result
if dirt or other contaminants enter the
hydraulic system.

HYDRAULIC HOSES

Fluid escaping at high pressure from a very small


hole can be almost invisible, and can cause
serious injuries.

See a doctor at once if injury results from


escaping hydraulic fluid. Serious infection or
reaction can develop if proper medical treatment
is not given immediately.

FOR SAFETY: When Servicing Machine,


Use Cardboard To Locate Leaking
Hydraulic Fluid Under Pressure.

If you discover a fluid leak, contact your 00002

mechanic/supervisor.

HYDRAULICS

HYDRAULIC PUMP

The machines hydraulic pump is driven by an


electric motor. The pump provides flow for the
hopper lift, dump door open and close, side and
main brush rotation, and power steering.

After repairing or replacing a hydraulic pump, or


when system contamination is likely, change the
hydraulic fluid in the reservoir and the hydraulic
fluid filter.
