1. General
This service manual deals with a number of technical aspects that are of importance to the
A80 sweeper vehicle.
The directions for use do not only apply to the operation of the vehicle, but also as the basis
for maintenance. The technician should first read the operator's manual before reading this
service manual.
Therefore, the driver is best-qualified to inform the technician about any defects and/or
breakdowns. This is an excellent form of communication for optimum technical maintenance.
This service manual describes the maintenance work that is carried out most frequently and
assumes reasonable technical skill on the part of the technician.
The technician may independently carry out repairs that do not appear in this manual, but for
which he is sufficiently trained and qualified. It is essential that he complies with all safety
regulations and aspects that apply to other activities. He should also possess sufficient
expertise to carry out such work independently and without risk.
The specific supplier's documentation needed for such repairs is included, as are the electrical
and hydraulic diagrams. In the event that further information is required, please contact
Tennant N.V.
All parts should be replaced with authentic Tennant N.V. parts or parts of similar quality.
If repairs are carried out unprofessionally or incorrect parts are used, the CE designation
lapses irrevocably. Tennant N.V. accepts no liability for any ensuing direct or indirect
damage.

to download the selected lines to the ECU. Only press once this Button!!!
The machine is now ready for making the settings for the driving away moment.
Page 6 of 10
Click on [PWM Outputs] in the Diagnostic Navigator under [Log FunctionsÆStart-up].

In this window you must read the actual values at the moment the machine starts driving away. The values
are read in the fields [0,1-CP_PWM_OUT_FWD] for driving forwards in both transport and sweep modes,
and [0,1-CP_PWM_OUT_RVS] for reversing in transport and sweep modes.
The values must be specified for the following four situations:
1. Driving forwards in transport mode

2. Driving backwards in transport mode
3. Driving forwards in sweep mode, at maximum rpm (1700 RPM)
4. Driving backwards in sweep mode, at maximum rpm (1700 RPM)
Click on [Start Logging] to import the actual values.
The following table contains a description of the parameter names. Make sure you enter and download the
correct value with the correct parameter, thus ensuring proper working of the machine.
Parameter description Remark

[EE_PWM_Fwd_Start_Tm] Forward_start_TransportMode Driving off forwards in transport
mode
[EE_PWM_Fwd_Start_Wm] Forward_start_WorkMode Driving off forwards in sweep mode
[EE_PWM_Rvs_Start_Tm] Reverse_start_TransportMode Driving off backwards in transport
mode
[EE_PWM_Rvs_Start_Wm] Reverse_start_WorkMode Driving off backwards in sweep
mode
Page 7 of 10
Follow the method given below to determine the value for driving forwards in transport
mode:
1. Make sure the machine is in transport mode.

2. Switch the driving direction to forwards.
3. Depress the accelerator pedal until the machine shows a sign of starting to move.
4. Read the current value in the window on the laptop. In this case, it is 172.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 5 a total of 5 times, so that you end up having done five measurements.
6. Determine the average value of the five observations.
Suppose the five measurements have the values 172, 179, 186, 178 and 180. The average value in
that case is 179
7. Now deduct 50 from the average value determined in step 6.
In transport mode, deduct 50 from the average value;

in sweep mode, deduct 80 from the average value.
In the example, that gives us 179 - 50 = 129.

8. Make sure that the driving switch is in its neutral position before downloading parameters to the
ECU!!!
9. Enter the calculated value in the PWM parameters and download them to the ECU.
Click on [PWM] in the Diagnostic Navigator under [Parameter Functions]. Enter the value in the
field in the Value column behind the parameter [EE_PWM_Fwd_Start_Tm] and press [ENTER] to
confirm it. The line is now selected, as shown by the "tick" in front of the line. Now click on
[Download parameters TO ECU]. Only press once this Button!!!
Page 8 of 10
10. Repeat the method for determining the moment of driving off backwards in transport mode. Enter the
calculated value (= average value – 50) in the PWM parameters [EE_PWM_Rvs_Start_Tm] and
download them to the ECU.
11. Repeat the method for determining the moment of driving off forwards in sweep mode. Enter the
calculated value (= average value – 80) in the PWM parameters [EE_PWM_Fwd_Start_Wm] and
12. Repeat the method for determining the moment of driving off backwards in sweep mode. Enter the
calculated value (= average value – 80) in the PWM parameters [EE_PWM_Rvs_Start_Wm] and
The machine is now fully ready for driving; check the drive
away moments thoroughly, and if necessary, adjust them
once the machine has driven for a longer period.
Page 9 of 10
The parameter(s) now have been changed and verified You can now
turn off the Plus+1 Guide Service Tool. Click on [File] and select
[Exit]. After this, you now can start the machine.
Once the software has been turned off, you can switch off the
machine and disconnect the Sauer-Danfoss CG150 interface.
After changing the parameters, a test of all driving functionality

needs to be executed by a qualified Engineer of Tennant.
Only after proper working, the machine can be released to the

customer on this point.

3) EE_PWM_Rvs_MaxHD_Tm which is the maximum reverse speed in Transport Mode
4) EE_PWM_Rvs_MaxHD_Wm which is the maximum reverse speed in Work/Sweeping Mode
The maximum value of these parameters is set to a maximum value of 200.
Both four values can be changed to influence the driving speed in this specific situation.
To change these values click on the parameter you want to change in the [Edit value] field of the parameter
and change the value in the field to the value, which is requested. A higher value results in a higher speed as
well as a lower value decreases the speed.

The parameter(s) now have been changed and verified You can now
turn off the Plus+1 Guide Service Tool. Click on [File] and select
[Exit]. After this, you now can start the machine.
Once the software has been turned off, you can switch off the
machine and disconnect the Sauer-Danfoss CG150 interface.
After changing the parameters, a test of all driving functionality

needs to be executed by a qualified Engineer of Tennant. In this
test the following driving-situations have to be tested:
1) Hopper down, test forward and reverse in Tranport- and
Work- mode.
2) Hopper up, test forward and reverse in Transport and work
mode.
The proper speed must not be higher than 1,5 m/s.
Only after proper working, the machine can be released to the

customer on this point.
