Air Charging Data of Tyre

Liugong proposed that tyre should be charged with dry nitrogen and the tyre pressure should be
adjusted, which is for all the machines equipped with the rubber tyre. Nitrogen is an inert gas and
will not support the combustion in the tyre.
The use of nitrogen (N2) will not only reduce the risk of explosion, and also contribute to the
prevention of oxidation and rubber aging as well as the corrosion of wheel rim parts. Tyre life can
reach at least 4 years.
Warning
The operators using the air charging equipment should be trained properly,
because using the incorrect air charging technology will lead to the casualties.
Set the pressure of air charging equipment of tyre not higher than the
recommended tyre pressure 140KPa (20 psi).
The check and adjustment of the air charging pressure of tyre should be conducted after the fully
cooling of tyre and notify all other staff to leave the dangerous zone (around the tire).
Nitrogen charging pressure is the same as the air charging pressure. Liugong advised that the air
charging pressure should be determined according to the actual operating conditions of tyre.
The air charging pressure of tyre shown in the table is the value at the normal temperature
MPa psi
17.5-25 0.275±0.01 40±1.5
When the motor grader is traveling in the cold temperature, the tyre pressure will change greatly.
The tyre which is charged sufficiently in the normal temperatures will be in a shortage of air
pressure in the cold temperature. The rather low tyre pressure will shorten the service life.
Pressure Release
Warning
Hydraulic oil circuit has always been under the state of pressure, so when
checking or replacing the pipe or hose, the circuit pressure should be released.
If the pressure is not released, high-pressure oil will be emitted which would
cause the serious personal injury.
After turning off the engine, parts, oil and the cooling water inside the radiator
are still in the high temperature, which would cause the serious burns. At the
beginning of the operation, wait for the temperature to fall.
When removing the oil filling cover and the water-filling cover of radiator, oil or
water will blow out, so it is necessary to slowly rotate the cover prior to the
removal of cover to release internal pressure.
Operation method of Pressure Release:
1. Park the machine on the level and solid ground. And lower all the devices down to the ground.
2. Within 15 seconds after the shutdown, turn the starting switch to the ON gear and operate the
control lever towards all direction fully (operational device and running device) to release the
internal pressure of operational device.
3. Slowly unscrew the oil filling cover A at the top of the hydraulic tank or water-filling cover B of
the radiator to release the internal pressure.
4. The remaining pressure inside the hydraulic device can be released by unscrewing the
fastening nuts between the hydraulic pipeline and then screw down them again. At the same
time, be sure to collect the remaining oil inside the operational device.
5. Pressure release of the accumulator; see the ―Maintenance of Accumulator‖ for details.

Maintenance of Cooling System
Check of Coolant Level
Warning
Operating coolant is of the higher pressure and temperature. The hot coolant
can cause the serious burns, so if it is necessary to shut down the engine and
wait for the radiator to cool down before opening the cover, and then slowly
unscrew the water-filling cover in order to release the internal pressure.
The engine coolant is mainly composed of the cooling water, anti-freezing fluid and additive and
located in the radiator at the rear of the machine.
Checking Method of Coolant Level:
1. It is necessary to slowly unscrew the water-filling cover of the radiator to release the pressure
after the engine coolant temperature dropped to 50℃ below so as to avoild the burns by the
high-temperature steam or coolant sprayed out.
Water-filling port of water radiator
2. Check whether the coolant level is within 1 cm under the water-filling port, and add the coolant
if necessary.
3. Check the seal of water-filling cover of water radiator and replace it if damaged.
4. Screw down the water-filling cover of water radiator.
Caution: If the coolant should be added every day, it is necessary to check the
engine’s cooling system for leakage. If the leakage is found, it is necessary to
eliminate the leakage and add the anti-freezing fluid to the appropriate level.
Check for Concentration of Anti-freezing Fluid

When adding the coolant to the new motor grader or the engine of which cooling system is rinsed,
first it is necessary to choose the concentration of the anti-freezing fluid inside the coolant in
accordance with local minimum temperature (under normal circumstances, the freezing point of
the coolant should be 10℃ above less than the minimum temperature of the area) and calculate
the required amount of the anti-freezing fluid based on the total volume of the cooling system of
engine, and then mix the anti-freezing fluid with the softened water to add into the cooling system.
The total volume of the cooling system of the machine is about 45 liters (the actually added
amount should be determined by checking whether the coolant level is within 1 cm under the
water-filling port and add the coolant if necessary).
The brand and performance of the anti-freezing fluid recommended by Liugong Machinery Co.,
Ltd. are as follows:
Applicable Minimum Ambient Shell Anti-freezing Fluid (Concentrated-OAT) Mobil Anti-freezing Agent
Temperature (Percentage) (Concentrated) (Percentage)
-45℃ 55% ——
-30℃ 47% 47%
-15℃ 30% 33%
0℃ 0 0
When replacing the anti-freezing fluid, please choose the high-quality anti-freezing fluid and add it
under its instructions.
Caution: 1. Anti-freezing fluid is a flammable material, do not close to the

open flame. 2. Be sure not to use the water independently as the coolant. It is
prohibited to add the tap water or mineral water to the cooling system instead of
the softened water. Otherwise it may lead to the corrosion of the whole cooling
system.
Check for Concentration of Coolant Additive

Coolant should contain the additive (SCA). Additive can prevent the rust, scaling, pitting and
corrosion of the engine parts contacting with the coolant. The concentration of coolant additive
should be maintained at around 3%. Anti-freezing fluid already contains the additive, but the
additive would be consumed during the use of engine, so it is necessary to check the
concentration of additive once per 500 work hours or 6 months and add the additive regularly by
replacing the coolant filter.
Refer to the ―Operation and Maintenance Manual of Engine‖ for the further detailed provisions
about the testing method for concentration of additive and the supplement of additive.
Add of Coolant
Warning
Coolant-adding steps are as follows:
1. It is necessary to mix the water and anti-freezing fluid completely according to the selected
ratio of coolant in advance.
2. Switch on the negative switch of power supply; insert the key into the starting switch and turn
it clockwise to ―ON‖ gear to switch on the power supply of complete vehicle.
3. Turn the inverter switch of air-conditioning system to the heater gear.
4. Turn the manual valve in the water-in pipe of engine to the access position.

5. Open the water-filling cover of water radiator to add the coolant slowly until the level is within
the 1 cm under the water-filling cover of water radiator and remain stable for 10 minutes.
Caution: With the injection of coolant, it is important to exhaust the air from
the cooling system pipeline of engine.
6. Keep the water-filling cover of water radiator open, start the engine to run at the low idle
speed for 5 minutes first and run at the high idle speed for 5 minutes, and make the coolant
temperature reach 80℃ above.
7. Re-check the coolant level and, if necessary, add the coolant until the level is within 1 cm
under the water-filling cover of water radiator.
8. Check the seal of water-filling cover of water radiator and replace it if damaged.
Warning
Do not add the cold coolant to the high-temperature engine; otherwise it could
lead to the damage to the engine body. It is necessary to add the coolant after
the engine temperature is below 50℃.
Liugong Machinery Co., Ltd. will not hold responsibility for the losses due to the
decline in the concentration of anti-freezing fluid as a result of the leakage of
coolant caused by the improper operation of user.
Change of Coolant
Warning
When carrying out the check, maintenance, test and adjustment to the motor
grader, it is necessary to be prepared to use a suitable container to collect the
liquid before removing any hydraulic oil circuit or disassembling any part
containing the liquid. And dispose of all liquid in accordance with the local laws
and regulations.
It is necessary to change the coolant inside the cooling system and rinse the cooling system once
every 2,000 work hours or a year (whichever comes first). Before it, if the coolant was
contaminated, engine was overheated or bubble appeared in the radiator, it is necessary to rinse
the cooling system.
Operational steps of rinsing the cooling system are as follows:

1. Switch on the negative switch of power supply; insert the key into the starting switch and turn
it clockwise to ―ON‖ gear to switch on the power supply of complete vehicle; turn the inverter
switch of air-conditioning system to the heater gear.
2. Turn the manual valve in the water-in pipe of engine to the access position.

Caution:
1. After a period of time, the press plate of storage battery will be loosened by
the vibration during the operation of machine. In order to avert looseness of
storage battery, you shall constantly check whether the nut in the center of
press plate is screwed tight. If it is loose, please screw it up.
2. After a period of time, the connection between the terminal of storage
battery and the cable connectors will be loosened by the vibration during
the operation of machine. In order to avert the possible looseness, you shall
constantly check whether the connection between the terminal of storage
battery and the cable connectors is loose or not.
Installation of Storage Battery

The storage battery with green densimeter can be mounted firmly and reliably in the stated parts of
vehicle and put into use.
10. Make the cathode switch of storage battery in closed state. Turn the start switch (also called
electric switch lock) to the ―OFF‖ position and pull the key out.
11. Clean the ends and surface of storage battery with clean cloth. Absolutely don’t use gasoline
or any other organic solvent or cleanser.
12. When connecting the wire, first connect the anode of storage battery with that of engine, and
then connect the cathode of storage battery with that of engine.
13. Screw the nuts firm and tight.
14. Put through the cathode switch of storage battery, insert the key and start the electric switch
lock.
Warning: you must identify the positive (+) end and the negative (-) end
separately. Wrong installation will result in serious damage of pile head.
Charge of Storage Battery

15. Reason why storage battery is lack of electricity.
 Abnormal usage like turning on the electric appliances for too long with the machine not
started.
 The situations like long time driving of machine, heavy current of electrical leakage of
machine, or mounting additional electric appliances, cause the complete discharge of battery.
 Frequent starting of machine.
 Malfunctions of charging system of machine like useless engine or other electronic
components, too low setting of the charging voltage of engine voltage regulator, or loose drive
belt of engine, can make abnormal charge of battery, cause the battery lack of electricity and
the magic eye of storage battery black, and even the fail of starting the machine.
 The stock time of storage battery is over 6 months.
The storage battery with electricity shortage caused by the above reasons can be back to normal
by correctly and timely replenishing.
16. Check the appearance of battery before charging.
 The storage battery with broken housing of storage battery with or which leaks acid liquid can
not be replenished. Find out the reason and then exchange it.
 Battery with broken end post can not be replenished. Find out the reason and then exchange
it.
 The storage battery with whitish magic eye needs to be exchanged instead of replenished.
 Before replenishing, clean the end post and remove the superficial oxide skin.
17. Precautions of Charging
 Wear safety glasses.
 Keep a good ventilation of circumstance during charging. Charge it under normal

temperature.
 Smoking is forbidden in case of the introduction of tinder.

 When connecting the wire after charging, first connect the wire of anode; when disconnecting
the wire before charging, first disconnect the wire of cathode.
18. Operations of Charging the Storage Battery
 Ensure that the end post of storage battery is clean and that the connection of charging circuit
is good.
 The anode of charger is connected with that of storage battery. The cathode of charger is
connected with that of storage battery. Be sure not to charge the battery in series (24V).
 It is suggested to use constant voltage of 16.0V (the maximum voltage can not exceed 16.2V.
The excess of this limit can cause many water electrolyzed, leading declined liquid level,
whitish magic eye and broken battery). Charge the storage battery with current limiting 25A
charger until the magic eye turns green, which means the battery is fully charged.
 If there is no condition to charge with constant voltage, you can use the following normative
constant current:
(1) Select 1/8~1/10A charging current with rated capacity (it is12~15A for 37B0108 battery, and
10~12A for 37B0077 battery). The voltage at the final stage of charging should reach but not
exceed 16V (the voltage at the final stage below 16V is easy to cause the magic eye black after
the battery is filled.) If the charger can not guarantee that the charging voltage will be limited below
16V, the voltage of storage battery must be monitored every hour by people, otherwise it will affect
the service life of storage battery or even make it inefficacy, because of water loss caused by over
voltage.
(2) The corresponding relationship of charge time and voltage of storage battery before charging is
listed as follows (For your information, the small the charging current, the longer the charging
time).
Battery voltage Charge time
12.55~12.45V 2h
12.45~12.35V 3h
12.35~12.20V 4h
12.20~12.05V 5h
12.05~11.95V 6h
11.95~11.80V 7h
11.80~11.65V 8h
11.65~11.50V 9h
11.50~11.30V 10h
11.30~11.00V 12h
Below 11.00V 14h
(3) Check the color of magic eye after charging. If the magic eye is green, it means the storage
battery is fully charged. If the magic eye is black, check whether the charging wire is connected
firmly and whether the connecting points are clean, or whether the voltage at the final stage
reaches 16V. Check the voltage after 24h’s laying, and then continue to charge it according to the
relationship of charge time and voltage of storage battery.
(4) If the magic eye is whitish after charging, it may be caused by the air bubbles in the magic eye.
You can slightly shake the battery to remove the air bubbles. If it is still whitish after shaking, it
means the electrolyte is lost and the storage battery is scrapped which needs to be exchanged.
 As to the storage battery with the voltage lower than 11.0V, the electricity may not be charged
into the storage battery at the early stage of charging. Because the sulphuric acid proportion
of storage battery with serious electricity shortage is close to pure water, the internal
resistance of storage battery is very big. At this time, you can decrease the charge current or
change another charger with bigger power, or you can charge with another storage battery
connected in parallel. With the charging of the storage battery, the sulphuric acid proportion in
it will raise, and then the charge current can be gradually back to normal.
 During charging, if lot of acid spouts from the exhaust hole of storage battery, you should stop
charging at once and find out the reason.
 During charging, if the temperature of storage battery exceeds 45 degree, you should stop
charging, and wait until it drops to room temperature and then continue to charge it with the
charge current halved.
 During charging, check the state of magic eye every hour. If the magic eye is green, it means
the storage battery is fully charged.
 It is suggested to smear Vaseline on the end post of storage battery after the charge and
qualification testing, in case of electrolytic corrosion.
Warning
If the treatment of storage battery is incorrect during charging, the storage

battery may explode.
When the housing of storage battery is broken or leaks acid liquid, or end post
is broken, or when the magic eye is transparent and bright, you should find out
the reason and then exchange the storage battery.
Keep ventilation during charging. Smoking is forbidden in case of spark and
naked flame.
Maintenance of Storage Battery during Stock of Machine

 If the machine is going to be stocked over 15 days, the cathode wire of storage battery should
be disconnected.
 Check the charge state of storage battery every other 3 month.
Storage battery with the voltage over 12.40V is the one with normal charge.
Storage battery with the voltage under 12.40V is the one lack of electricity.
 Must replenish the storage battery when it is lack of electricity. Replenishment should be done
complying with the charging procedure.
 For the vehicle that does not disconnect the wire of storage battery, check the voltage state of
the storage battery once every month. Storage battery with the voltage under 12.40V should
be replenished complying with the charging procedure.
 For the storage battery on vehicle that is stocked over 1 year, if it is not replenished complying
with the charging procedure, then it must be scrapped and replaced.
Reject of Storage Battery

Although the storage battery used for machine is watering-free and maintenance-free, whose
inner structure can effectively prevent the acidic materials inside from polluting the environment,
yet when it is scrapped, the polar plate containing lead, acidic materials and plastic encloser will
cause pollution to the environment of varying degrees, for the broken of exterior structure or for
other reasons. Therefore, the waste storage battery is not allowed to be littered. Please send the
waste storage battery to be dealt with to professional processing station of battery or recycle bin
here (if any) set up by the storage battery manufacturer.

the fuel heater can not work normally. After doing troubleshooting, just restart the machine using
the methods mentioned above (If heating medium is refilled, restart the machine after operating by
the method of exhaust).
3. Repair and Maintenance:
In winter, the heater should be removed from the vehicle, and then it should be cleaned, inspected
and filled with lubricating grease before being used. Usually the heater needn’t to be overhauled
during one heating season. When obvious thermal efficiency drop, ignition difficulty and other
malfunctions are found, find out the reasons and do troubleshooting.
3.1 After the heater has been operated for a period of time (according to the service condition),
unscrew the heater plug to clean up the accumulated charcoal. If the heating cord is burnt out,
remove the heater plug and replace it with a new one.
3.2 In the case of a large amount of accumulated charcoal which would reduce the thermal
efficiency, clean up the accumulated charcoal on the in-wall heat conduction strip of the water
sleeve body and in the combustion chamber.
3.3 Keep the oil tank, oil tubes and oil filter clean and smooth. Periodically wash those devices
according to the practical situation.
3.4 Use the coolant appropriate to the surrounding temperature as cooling medium for the circular
system of the heater.
3.5 Periodically check the heater pump according to the service condition. Once there are
malfunctions such as linkage of sealing surface or operating difficulty at the start, check and repair
those malfunctions in time.
3.6 Maintain the electric control box, electromagnetic valve and other electrical elements of the
heater by the methods used in the maintenance of general electric appliance with low voltage. All
the performance parameters of the automatic controller are seriously adjusted by the
manufacturer and mustn’t be changed by the users without permit.
3.7 In normal case, the motor of the heater needn’t to be repaired after 2,000h utilization. When
abnormal operation which is caused by a long period of utilization or other reasons occurs, check

observation hole of oil level indicator. The oil volume is about 2.5L. Choose the oil
grease with the type of 85W/90 GL-5 (in summer) or 80W/90 GL-5 (in winter).
(6) Clean up plug 2, replace the seal ring with the new, and then mount and screw down the
plug on the position of (plug 2).
(7) Ensure at least one oil replacement annually.
Moldboard and Angular Device (Optional)

Moldboard and angular device are indispensable parts of working device. Different positions of the
moldboard can be achieved by controlling the swinging oil cylinder to fit the demands of various
working conditions. The moldboard can be side shifted and retracted from the left and right sides.
It can be rotated in all angles and in 360°. However, when rotating or moving the moldboard, be
careful not to damage the parts such as the frame, the ladder, the wheels and the steering pull rod,
etc.
The adjustment of the rotation shovel angle can be achieved by controlling the tilting oil cylinder
with the hydraulic angular device. Bigger rotation shovel angle that can produce higher shoveling
pressure should be adopted to achieve the optimal efficiency of the motor grader. During the
shoveling, a smaller shovel angle may reduce the cutting force while a bigger shovel angle may
enhance the precision of smoothness and the mixing effect.
Repair and Maintenance
If the moldboard of the motor grader shakes (being loose) greatly, the guide and bushing should
be replaced in pairs. Cleaning the roughness and unsmoothness on the guide rail in time can
reduce the abrasion grade. The guide rail can be trimmed by a file.
