TABLE Maximum lifting capacity of models Nokka 20L, 25L, 31L, 3152, 3161 and 3467 loaders without the rotator and the log grab. Lifting capacities are measured according to different boom positions. Lifting capacity is approximately 100 kg lower when operating with the rotator and the log grab. 8 9 PREPEARING FOR USE The manufacturer supplies loader models Nokka 3152, 3161and 3467 on a transport stand to retail dealers and customers. Nokka 20L, 25L and 31L will be delivered to customer fitted to forestry trailer and ready to use. Unpacking from the stand and preparing the loader for work is done in the following way: 1. Lift the loader onto a support such as in picture 1. The support must be high enough for the tractor to lower its lift arms in alignment with the draw brackets of the loader. Be sure that the support sustains the weight of the loader. 2. Remove the wooden support blocks from the draw brackets. 3. Back the tractor carefully into the loader and set the lower arms to the same height as the loader draw bracket holes. Back the tractor into a position where the draw pins can be fitted. Secure them with the locking pins. If there are quickcouplings in the lower arms, fit the balls into the loader draw brackets and reverse the tractor so that the balls are aligned with the quick-coupling heads. Lift the lower arms enough to enable the quick-coupling head locks to engage. Ensure that they are locked. 4. Fit the top link push rod into place. 5. Fit the valve assembly of the loader to the tractor so that the control levers move without restriction and the valve assembly is easy to use. Fasten the valve assembly firmly enough to avoid any movement and falling. 6. Connect the return and pressure hoses of the loader to the tractor hydraulic outputs. As seen from the direction of hoses, the return hose will be located on the left end and the pressure hose on the right end. The return hose is equipped with a female connector and the pressure hose has a male connector. It is good to connect the return hose directly into the tank, so that there will not be any pressure buildup in the return pipe line. Follow the connection instructions of the tractor manufacturer. 7. Make sure that the valve levers move freely in their center positions. Turn on the hydraulic supply. 8. Lift the loader carefully with the lower arms so that they will not break the rear window (picture 2). 9. Carefully lift the extension boom to reduce the load on the support legs (picture 2). 10. Remove the support legs from the transport package. 11. Move the booms slightly to the rear so that the grab rests on the ground. 12. Fit the support legs and hammer the accompanying attaching pins into place (picture 3). 13. Fit the support leg rams onto the brackets in the support legs and insert the pins (picture 3). 10 Picture 1 Picture 2 Picture 3 11 FITTING THE LOWER ARMS OF THE TRACTOR HITCH When the loader is in the normal storage position supported by the support legs and booms, connection occurs as follows: 1. Move the loader valve assembly to a clear area so that there is nothing to impede the tractor when it is backed up near the loader. 2. Carefully back the tractor into a position near the loader and set the lower arms to the same height as the holes of the loader draw brackets. Back the tractor up so that the draw pins can be inserted and secure them with the locking pins. If there are quickcouplers in the lower arms, fit the balls to the loader draw brackets and move the tractor until the balls are aligned with the quick-coupling heads. Lift the lower arms enough to enable the quick-coupling head latches to engage. Ensure that they are locked (picture 5). 3. Fit the top link push rod into place (picture 4). 4. Lift the lower arms just enough for the support legs to leave the ground. Check that the loader is free to move as it is lifted. 5. Fit the valve assembly of the loader near the tractor rear window so that the control levers move without restriction and the valve assembly is easy to control. 6. Connect the return and pressure hoses of the loader to the tractor hydraulic outputs. As seen from the direction of the hoses, the return hose will be located in the left end and the pressure hose on the right end. The return hose is equipped with a female connector and the pressure hose has a male connector. It is good to connect the return hose directly into the tank, so there will not be any pressure buildup in the return pipe line. Follow the connection instructions as provided by the tractor manufacturer. 7. Make sure that the levers of the valve are free and in their center positions. Turn on the hydraulic supply. 8. Carefully lift the support legs to their fully raised position. Repeat this several times to remove any air from the rams. 9. Adjust the top link length so that the loader swivel arm is in the vertical position. 10. Check that the loader moves freely when the lower arms are lifted and lowered. Take care not to break the rear window. 12 Picture 4 Picture 5 REMOVING THE LOADER FROM THE TRACTOR HITCH LOWER ARMS 13 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Lower the lift arms so that the loader rests on its support legs at a convenient height. Extend the booms straight back, lower the end of the boom onto ground so that the loader grab lies sideways at the rear (picture 6). Turn off the hydraulic supply before coming out from the tractor to the loader. Uncouple the pressure and return hoses of the loader from the tractor and couple them together (picture 7.) Remove the loader valve assembly from the tractor and lift it to the bracket on theloader. Uncouple the top link and the lower arms from the loader. Drive the tractor carefully forward. 14 Picture 6 Picture 7 15 ATTACHING THE LOADER TO THE LOADER MOUNTING FRAME OF THE NOKKA FORESTRY TRAILER If the loader is to be coupled to the forestry trailer loader mounting frame by its lower links, it is performed as follows: 1. Place the forestry trailer on level ground so that the trailer beam lies low enough to fit under the drawbar hook of the tractor. 2. Set the loader to the rear position and raise the boom high enough to allow it to pass over the trailer front safety barrier. 3. Back the tractor up until the loader is in the centre of the mounting frame. Raise the lower links until the loader is above the mounting frame. Ensure that loader connection points are over the mounting frame brackets. 4. When the loader is in the correct position, lower the support legs to the ground so that they bear the weight of the load. Connect the loader clamp to the rear of the forestry trailer. 5. Uncouple the top link from the loader 6. Detach the tractor lower arms from the loader. Be careful when detaching the lower arms as the loader may move. 7. Drive the tractor carefully forward as far as the hydraulic hoses will reach. 8. Guide the loader from the valve assembly so that the lower link pins can be inserted. Be careful when using the loader because uncontrolled movements may tip it or cause other dangerous situations. 9. Guide the loader from the valve assembly so that the top link pin can be inserted. Tighten the trailer attachment screws and check daily on their tightness. Attach the clamp to the rear of the forestry trailer and raise the support legs. 10. Attach the forestry trailer to the tractor drawbar hook and inspect the attachment and hoses. 16 DISMOUNTING THE LOADER FROM THE FORESTRY TRAILER 1. Lower the loader support legs to the ground and swing the loader boom to the side of the forestry trailer. Extend the booms straight back and lay the loader grab to the ground so that it lies on its side with its clamps open. Set the booms as close to the forestry trailer as possible to reduce the danger of tipping. 2. Loosen the attachment screws and detach the loader top link pin, as well as the lower link pins. 3. Raise the loader with the support legs. Be careful when using the loader as uncontrolled movements may cause the loader to tip or other dangerous situations. 4. Carefully back up the tractor-trailer. Remember to close the tractor’s rear window to prevent breaking. 5. When the tractor has been backed up a sufficient distance, detach the forestry trailer from the drawbar hook and drive the tractor forward until the draw bracket balls are aligned with the attachment slots. Also remember to release the shaft control hoses. 6. Using the support legs, lower the loader so that the attachment slots are aligned with the draw bracket ball joints. Attach the lower and top link pins. 7. Insert the cotter pins and raise the booms so that the tractor can be driven forward. Raise the support legs from the ground and drive the tractor carefully forward. Ensure that the hoses do not become tangled up with the forestry trailer or other objects. Remember that the weight of the loader can affect the steering. 8. Check the attachments and hydraulic hoses again and set the loader into its transport mode. 17 INSPECTION OF ASSEMBLY Test loading has been done in the factory and its information is registered on the log sheet. Equipment: • Check that all the pins, locking pins and other parts important for safety are secured and that the threaded joints are tight. Operation of the control valve: • Check that the control valve operation matches the diagram and the control levers return to centre position (except for the extreme 'float' position). Operation of the safety relief valve: • By listening carefully, check that the relief valves are working. • A pressure test can be performed from the pressure hose quick connector. Maximum allowed pressure settings are outlined in the specifications. Hydraulic equipment: • Inspect the condition of the hoses and couplings and make sure that the hoses do not rub or twist with each other. Labels: Check that the machine has: • a manufacturing label • load label/high voltage wire label • a control valve lever operation diagram • a danger area label • Lifting hook label Stability: • Check that the loader/forestry trailer combination is stable enough against overturning. • Stability must be determined by either calculating using the formula in the loader manual or experimentally, according to standard SFS 4677. Stability determination in practice: • A loader is considered safe if, during the test ,no more than one support point is off the ground. Testing requirements: • The vehicle is tilted 5 degrees in the direction of tipping. During the test the vehicle is in normal operating condition without load. Test: • The test is performed in the most unstable direction and reach using a 10% overload. During the test all normal movements must be performed with extreme caution. 18 WORKING INSTRUCTIONS 1. 2. 3. 4. Keep parking brake on when using the loader. Make sure there are no people in the working area. Take care that you can see the whole working area without difficulty. Start working the loader with low engine revs to keep the movements of the loader slow. You can increase the speed as you get acquainted with the machine. 5. Avoid quick, sharp movements: your aim should be to get a smooth operation of the loader. Start a new operation while the other operation is still going. 6. In cold weather, before you start working make sure the levers work well. Check that the levers return to the center positions as you let them free. If the levers move stiffly, let the oil circulate in the system to warm it up. 7. Do not use the loader for towing, or pulling sideways. 8. Be especially careful when working near electric conductors. Remember the safety distances from electric conductors. 9. Lifting people with the loader is prohibited. 10.Get acquainted with the loader by lifting light loads first. Note! Never leave the loader up (with or without a load), unless you are present. 11.If the combination (tractor/loader or forestry trailer/loader) starts to overturn, lower the load down immediately. Do not drop the load from the grab. Keep hold of the steering wheel and do not jump off the tractor! 12.Avoid loading on a slope. Do not lift full loads from the uphill side; the boom may not stop swinging as the pressure in the ram may rise too much subsequently opening the relief valve. This causes oil to escape from the ram which then cannot prevent the boom from swinging . In an overloading condition, there is always risk of overturning. 13.If the cross link of the loader, in its extreme position, rests on the back stop of the transfer boom, the position of the boom must be changed so that the cross link comes loose from the back stop. If a load is lifted with the loader or the grab is pressed with the boom (e.g. against the load when the cross link rests on back stop) the shaft of the rotator can be damaged. The guarantee does not remunerate damages caused by incorrect use. 19 TRANSPORT POSITION When a loader is mounted on lower arms of a tractor during transport, the loader’s centre of gravity should be as close to the tractor as possible. For transport, the best position is with the loader facing forward with the grab at the front of the tractor (picture 8). Note! In this position the tractor’s three point linkage must not be lowered as this may cause the loader boom to hit the tractor roof. If a loader is transported in the rearward position the extra weight at the rear may adversely affect the tractor steering (picture 9). If the forestry trailer is towed by a tractor and the loader is attached to the linkage, the loader grab can be attached to the frame of the forestry trailer. In this case, the loader valves must have a floating position for the lift boom, shift beam and turning movements. This can be done by setting the levers beyond the normal work position into the float positions. Before coupling to the floating position, the grab of the loader has to be attached to the trailer frame, otherwise the loader boom will come down quickly. When transporting, ensure that the grab is tightly attached to the trailer frame. If the loader is fitted on the forestry trailer beam, the loader grab can be placed on the trailer frame or on top of the load. During transport, be aware of loader height, electrical cables, etc. 20 Kuva 8 Kuva 9 21 3. MAINTENANCE SAFETY IN MAINTENANCE WORK Before carrying out any servicing, adjustment or cleaning work or mounting any accessories: 1. Disengage the hydraulic power output. 2. Fully lower the equipment. 3. Stop the engine. 4. WAIT until all parts have come to a standstill. 5. Before starting servicing, support all booms properly to prevent the loader from moving even if the valve levers might be touched. 6. If the hydraulic system needs to be used in servicing or installation, take special care in performing any hydraulic motions. GENERAL MAINTENACE INSTRUCTIONS • Servicing the loader carefully and at appropriate times ensures proper operation and durability of your machine. • In all maintenance work, maintain absolute cleanliness. • Do not spill hydraulic oil on the ground. • Use proper tools to avoid damage and secure correct installation. • Keep an eye on the cylinders, hoses and couplings and repair any leaks immediately. • If a fault occurs, try to locate it as accurately as possible. This will help you avoid unnecessary work and further damage. • Always use original spare parts. LUBRICATION Lubricate the loader after every 16 hours of operation. Apply lubricant until it slightly runs over from the part being applied. Give two applications of lubricant to the lubricant nipple of the gear rack slide pad. To make lubrication of the vertical boom’s top head easier, the turning cylinders and support legs have been scored. Before climbing atop the turning cylinder, extend the boom directly backwards and attach it to the frame of the forestry trailer or lay it on the ground. Lift the support legs into a horizontal position. The sliding boom is lubricated by spreading vaseline on the boom’s sliding surfaces when they are fully exposed. Use only high quality vaseline, example NESTE OH GREASE. 22 ADJUSTING THE SUPPORT BEARING OF THE GEAR RACK Checking the tightness of the support bearings of the gear rack and the vertical boom's tooth rim is essential to prevent breaking of the teeth. Check the adjustment after first 10 hours of operation and after it at intervals of about 100 hours. The recommended clearance is 0.05 - 0.1 mm, which corresponds to a 10° - 20° turn of the tightening screw. First loosen the lock nut and then tighten the tightening screw (torque 10 kPm). After this open the screw about 10° - 20°. Finally screw the lock nut back and tighten it. It is useful to check at times that the nut and screw have not turned loose by themselves. If the loader is equipped with two gear racks, there are support bearings on both sides of the slewing device. POWERLESS LOADER MOTIONS If the lifting power of the loader does not correspond to the values specified for it, check the following points: • Measure the tractor take-out pressure: it should be over 170 bar (3152, 3161; 175 bar) • Measure the pressure of the hydraulic return line; max. 5 bar, preferably under 2 bar. If the pressure exceeds the maximum, arrange a free return line in the tractor. However, observe the tractor manufacturer's instructions in connecting the return line. • If the tractor take-out pressure is over 170 bar (175 bar) and the return line pressure is under the maximum, check the loader's pressure limiting valves. Adjusting the loader's valves must be entrusted to an authorized repair shop because the manufacturer's guarantee will no longer be valid if the valves are adjusted improperly. 23 HYDRAULICS Hydraulic hoses, pipes and couplings should be checked from time to time to find possible fractures or leaks. Replace worn or broken parts with new ones to avoid damage. The return and pressure hose type is 1/2" SAE 100 R2SC, and the pressure. Always observe maximum cleanliness while servicing hydraulic components, and clean the inside of hoses from dust, rubber particles, etc., before installation. CHANGING HYDRAULIC HOSES Proper installation prolongs the life of hydraulic hoses considerably. Observe the following instructions while changing hydraulic hoses. • Check the pressure indications of the hose to be installed. • Clean the hoses from dirt, both inside and outside. • Check that the hose follows the proper route, and after installation check that the hose is able to move freely in all hydraulic motions. • Check that the hose is not twisted. A twisted hose has a much shorter life than one that is properly installed. • After installation check that the hose couplings do not leak. 24 HOW TO ORDER SPARE PARTS When ordering spare parts, always give the following information: • Designation of the machine • Serial number of the machine • Spare part number • Designation of the spare part • Your name and address • Method of delivery Do not order only by the picture - compare the part to its designation. Order the parts in good time from your dealer. If you have lost your spare parts catalogue, send the broken or worn-out part as a sample. Example. Nokka 3467 HK 3467 XXXX (serial number) 1 pc 0170090 bearing bush 45/50-40 WB 802 Name___________________________________________ Address_________________________________________ Method of delivery_________________________________ SERIAL NUMBER Write down the serial number of your grapple loader in the space provided below. You will find the serial number on the label placed on the left-hand side of the vertical boom. Serial number __________________________ STORAGE If the forestry trailer is not in use, it's working condition and resale value can be maintained by proper storage. Clean the machine and repaint any worn or rusty spots carefully before putting it into storage. Lubricate all greasing points and apply a thin layer of lubricant on places which cannot be painted or greased. The place for storage should be a dry and cool space. Before cleaning, disengage the hydraulic drive and stop the tractor engine. If a loader is mounted on the forestry trailer, set the boom so that it cannot sink during storage. DISPOSAL OF THE MACHINE Take extra care when dismantling the machine. Make sure the dismounted machine parts and the oil are taken to appropriate collection spots. 25 LOADING TABLE The loading table values for the working pressure of 17,0-18,8 Mpa.

If there is a danger of the tipping over (n<1), extra weight must used for stability: G×B+P×E–N×A–M×C M 3 = ---------------------------------------------------------------------------C M3 = extra weight to the rear axle center. 34 A) B) A) Tractor: A trailer with one axle. The loader fitted on the trailer draw beam. B) Tractor: A trailer with two axles (bogey). The loader fitted on the trailer draw beam. PRACTICAL STABILITY TEST A loader is considered stable if during the test no more than one support point comes off the ground. During testing the vehicle is tilted 5° in the direction of tipping. During the test the vehicle is in normal operating condition without load. The test perfomed in the most unstable direction using 10% overload. During the test all normal movements must be perfomed although with extra caution.
