Suggestions

1. Reassembling sequence
To reassemble, follow the reverse of disas-
sembly sequence.

2. Placing the torque converter housing

Lay the torque converter housing with its
engine side down.

3. Applying grease
Apply grease to the lips of the oil seals of the
pump assembly and transmission housing.

4. Applying oil on seal ring

Coat to the input shaft seal ring with automat-
ic transmission fluid.
204839

5. Mounting the transmission housing

Set the transmission housing to a hoist with
slings and eye bolts. Lower the housing onto
the torque converter housing by aligning the
input shaft with the transmission.

204830

6. Installing pump assembly

(1) Lay the transmission housing in a normal posi-
tion.
(2) Drive the input shaft (which has not been
inserted into the transmission yet) into posi-
tion with a copper rod from the torque con-
verter side.
(3) Tighten two torque converter housing mount-
ing bolts.
(4) Put the O-ring on the pump assembly. Apply
grease to the O-ring, and install the pump
assembly to the torque converter assembly. Be
sure to install the O-ring in the oil inlet port.

5-15
POWERSHIFT TRANSMISSION

7. Installing torque converter

(1) Install the torque converter in position by mat-
ing the splines of stator shaft and by position-
ing the groove of pump drive gear correctly. 50 to 52 mm
(2) Make sure that the distance between the end (1.97 to 2.05 in.)
face of torque converter housing and the mat-
ing face of flexible plate is 50 to 52 mm (1.97
to 2.05 in.).
(3) Support the flexible plate to the torque con-
verter housing with a wire to prevent the
torque converter from slipping out of position
until the torque converter is coupled to the
engine.
204840

8. Filling torque converter with AFT

Fill the torque converter after the transmission has
been mounted on the truck and the engine is ready
to be started.
Run the engine at idle speed for a while. Stop the
engine and, after 1 minute, check the oil level in
the transmission with the oil level gauge in 15
minutes.

1. Run the engine at idle speed for a while.
Stop the engine and, after one minute check
the oil level in the transmission with the oil

2. Warm up until the transmission oil temper-
ature rises.
3. Check the no-load minimum and maximum
speeds of the engine. If the speeds are not
correct, make an adjustment by referring to

The inching pedal is interlocked with the brake

pedal so that, when this pedal is depressed,
hydraulic pressure acting on the transmission is
reduced to zero before the brake is applied to
bring the transmission into neutral condition. If
this linkage is out of adjustment, the transmis-
sion clutch will not disengage or grab, resulting
in poor braking, abnormal temperature rise or
clutch disc seizure. To adjust the clutch pedal,
proceed as follows:

1. Adjusting the brake

(1) Adjust the released height A of the brake
pedal to 220 ± 3 mm (8.7 ± 0.1 in.).
(2) Set the master cylinder pushrod length E to

Adjusting
(1) Connect a pressure gauge to the clutch pres-

(2) Adjust the released height A of the inching pedal
to 220 mm (8.7 in.) by the stopper bolt. Set the

3. Depress the inching pedal. Gradually pull out (6)
the clutch valve plunger from its fully pushed [85]
position, and plot the hydraulic pressure curve
relative to the clutch valve plunger stroke.
Make sure that the plotted pressure curve is
0 5 10
identical with the curve shown. (0.20) (0.39)

Testing Stall Speed

WARNING
Make tests in a clear level area only. There
must be one operator. Keep all other per-
sonnel away from the lift truck. Check the
operation of the brakes before the tests are
made.

1. Check to make sure that the transmission oil

level is correct. (See the topic, 1. Testing
hydraulic pressure.)
2. Warm up until the transmission oil tempera-
ture reaches 40 °C to 60 °C (104 °F to 140 °F).
3. Block the front and rear wheels, and apply the
parking brake.
4. Check the no-load maximum speed of the
engine.
5. Run the engine at idle speed.
6. Move the lever to the FORWARD position.
Gradually depress the accelerator pedal all the
way by the right foot. Under this condition,
read the stall speed with an electric or strobo-
scopic tachometer.
CAUTION
Do not depress the inching pedal. Also, do not
allow the engine to keep on running at the
highest speed attained or the torque converter
may suffer damage. Stall-speed running of
the engine is limited to 30 seconds or less.

7. Similarly read the stall speed for reverse drive.

Unit: rpm
GP15K/18K GP20K/25K GP30K/35K
(DP15K/18K) (DP20K thru 35K)
Stall speed

(tolerance:
(2084) (2095)
± 100)

NOTE
1. Any stall speed within ±100 rpm of the
specified speed is allowed.
2. LPG models will show stall speed about
100 rpm lower than the specified speed.
3. When the engine or the torque converter is
changed, the stall speed will vary as it is
determined by the engine and torque con-
verter combination.

10-m (33-ft) Start Acceleration Test

1. Stand ready to start with the engine idling and
the transmission shift lever in the neutral posi-
tion.
2. At the signal, shift into forward and, at the
same time, depress the accelerator pedal all
the way.
3. Measure the amount of time that the truck
elapses to travel 10 meters (33 feet) by using a
watch.
4. Measure for reverse, too.
Time required for 10 m (33 ft) 5 seconds,
travel (no load) maximum
