Wheel Retention for Rough Terrain Drive
Wheel (Option)
1.
The rought terrain drive wheel is installed same as
the regular drive wheel except - place the wheel onto
drive motor shaft ensuring that the deepest point of
the rim, 5/8" as shown below, is facing out.
Failure to do so will result in the drive wheel rubbing
the drive motor cover.
2.
Replace shims and the retaining washer.
3.
Apply Loctite #242 onto retaining screw and install
with a torque rating of 35 ft lb.
IMPORTANT
FAILURE TO APPLY LOCTITE #242 TO THE RETAINING SCREW
AND TORQUING THE RETAINING SCREW TO 35 FT LB MAY
RESULT IN THE WHEEL COMING LOOSE AND FALLING OFF

Torque Limiting Clutch Maintenance
DVL Series and DVSP machines are equipped with a torque
limiting clutch coupling on each drive axle. The clutch is
mounted in line on a split drive axle between the drive wheel
and the drive motor gear box. The clutch is designed to slip
at a preset torque (220 ft. lb.) if the machines rear wheels are
over-driven while the machine is being towed, pushed or
forklifted, thus preventing damage to the drive gear box.
Although factory pre-set, the clutch assembly torque setting
should be checked;
• Annually - during Annual Inspection
However, if the lift is being moved via a fork truck on a regu-
lar or frequent basis, then the torque clutch may be forced
into a slipping mode, as intended to protect the drive train.
In that case, and if slippage occurs during machine opera-
tion, then the torque setting should be checked;
• Every 3 Months
And the torque specification reset per the following instruc-
tions.
Diagnostics
A torque clutch with INCORRECT torque setting may
develop the following symptoms;
• Machine does not drive straight.
NOTE: Machine pulling to one side can also be the result of
low battery voltage. Be sure and check battery volt-
age before clutch maintenance begins.
• There is gray dust accumulating around the drive
motor(s) due to excessive clutch wear.

Note* Do not forget to replace
shim(s), .005”min. Gap is
critical between retaining
washer and wheel hub.
