2.3.5 Automatic Fire Suppression System (If Equipped)

The automatic fire suppression system is an electronically controlled detection and
actuation system designed to activate the on-board fire suppression equipment when
a fire is detected. The system is independently powered in order to provide
protection at all times.

WARNING!
The fire suppression system is designed to suppress fires in their early
stages. Do not hesitate to activate the fire suppression system
immediately if you detect a fire on the machine. The earlier the system is
activated, the more effective it will be.

The system consists of an electronic control module connected to a detection wire

installed around the interior walls of the machine. If the temperature reaches 356° F
(180° C), the detection wire insulation will melt, allowing two steel conductor wires
inside the detection wire to touch. This sends a signal to the control module that, in
turn, activates the fire suppression equipment.

Figure 2: Control Module for Automatic Fire Suppression System

The control module for the automatic fire suppression system is located in the
operator’s compartment and will initiate the following sequence if a fire is detected on
the machine:

1) The alarm LED and the audible alarm on the control module will pulse two times
per second and the detection LED will pulse once every ten seconds.

2) After 5 to 30 seconds, the control module will shut down the machine and apply
the park/emergency brakes. This is referred to as the first time delay.

3) After the first time delay is completed, the control module will actuate the fire
suppression system either instantly or after another 10 to 30 seconds. When

2-8 Operator’s Manual

OP02005/04/05
 433LP SAFETY

this happens, the alarm LED and the audible alarm on the control module will
pulse four times every second. This is referred to as the second time delay.

4) The alarm LED will continue to pulse four times per second for 30 seconds after
the discharge of the fire suppression system. After that, the alarm LED and the
release LED will pulse at a rate of one pulse every ten seconds.

NOTE: The automatic fire suppression system time delays are preset by the
manufacturer, but can be changed in the field by authorised service
technicians. Refer to the manufacturer’s documentation in Appendix A
for further information.

NOTE: The system can also be activated manually, by pressing one of the two
fire suppression buttons. If you are aware of a fire, do not wait for the
automatic fire suppression system to activate.

NOTE: Fire suppression systems do not extinguish fires, they suppress them.

prerequisite sections:

• Safety
• Controls
• Instrument Panel
• Starting and Stopping the Machine

WARNING!
Inspect the machine and perform all required brake tests before every
shift.
OPERATING THE MACHINE 433LP

7.1 Tramming
NOTE: Before setting the machine in motion, check all items listed in the Inspection
Points chapter and perform all brake tests outlined in the Brake Tests chapter.

1) Start the machine.

2) Make sure the dump box is fully lowered onto the rear frame.

3) Increase engine speed to approximately 1000 RPM, until the engine temperature
rises and the brake fault light goes out. This also charges the brake accumulator.

NOTE: It will not be possible to release the brakes until brake pressure has risen to
a suitable pressure. Revving the engine quickens this process.

4) Allow the engine to return to low idle.

5) Select the desired direction and gear.

NOTE: If your mine has adopted a specific audible code for forward or reverse
direction, sound the horn before selecting a direction.

6) Release the park/emergency brake by pulling out the park/emergency brake light/
button. Refer to the Instrument Panel chapter for more information.

7) Apply gradual pressure to the throttle pedal. When the machine begins to move,
apply more or less pressure to the throttle pedal to obtain the desired travelling speed
in first gear.

NOTE: Do not exceed the speed limits set by the mine site or travel at speeds that
are dangerous to yourself or others. If travelling on a grade or on poor road
conditions, travel only at appropriate speeds.

8) Shift from one gear to another, as required, at any time during tramming.

9) When changing gears, release the accelerator pedal and shift gears at the same
time. Smooth shifting and smooth direction changes protect the drive train from
unnecessary shocks.

10) When travelling down ramps or slopes, select an appropriate gear that will assist the
vehicle maintain a comfortable speed. Excessive use of the service brake is not
suggested during tramming, as this will cause brake fade.

NOTE: Brake fade is the reduction of a brake pad linings ability to effectively resist
force due to the excessive heat generated during use of the brakes. As
brake pad lining temperatures increase, the lining begins to liquify and
expand until it is no longer making contact with the wheel drum.

GREASING THE
MACHINE
The proper and regular application of grease to this machine and any other
machine working in a mining environment, is one of the most important aspects of
preventative maintenance. If a machine is not properly lubricated, the premature
failure of vital bearings, bushings, and pins will occur. This will further lead to poor
performance of the machine and increased maintenance costs.

WARNING!
Only work in the centre articulation area if the machine is turned off
and the frame lock has been installed.
GREASING THE MACHINE 433LP

9.1 Automatic Lubrication System

Multipurpose grease is distributed throughout the machine by an automatic lubrication
system. In order for this system to properly lubricate the machine, it must be monitored
and replenished on a daily basis.

9.1.2 Replenishing the Pump

The following instructions describe how to replenish the reservoir in the automatic
lubrication pump:

1) Locate the grease fitting on the front of the automatic lubrication pump.

2) Use a hand-held grease pump to inject multi-purpose grease into the reservoir.

NOTE: Before injecting grease into the reservoir, refer to a service technician
or the Fluid and Lubricant Specifications chapter in the Service Manual
to determine the correct type of multipurpose grease to use.

9.1.3 General Maintenance

1) Check the automatic lubrication pump at least twice per shift to ensure it is
functioning correctly.

2) Inspect all grease fittings, divider valves, and grease hoses for damage,
excessive leaking, and fraying.

3) If a divider valve is suspected of malfunctioning:

a) Clean any grease from the exterior of the valve and have an operator start
the machine.

b) Watch the divider valve and wait for multipurpose grease to escape through
the grease fittings.

c) If no grease is present after application, contact service personnel for further

assistance.
