Technical Information
This manual has been produced by a new technical information system. This new system is designed to deliver
technical information electronically through CDROM and in paper manuals. A coding system called ICE has been
developed to link the technical information to other Product Support functions e.g. Warranty.
Technical information is written to support the maintenance and service of the functions or systems on a customers
machine. When a customer has a concern on his machine it is usually because a function or system on his machine
is not working at all, is not working efficiently, or is not responding correctly to his commands. When you refer to the
technical information in this manual to resolve that customers concern, you will find all the information classified
using the new ICE coding, according to the functions or systems on that machine. Once you have located the
technical information for that function or system then you will find all the mechanical, electrical or hydraulic devices,
components, assemblies and sub-assemblies for that function or system. You will also find all the types of information
that have been written for that function or system, the technical data (specifications), the functional data (how it
works), the diagnostic data (fault codes and troubleshooting) and the service data (remove, install adjust, etc.).
By integrating this new ICE coding into technical information , you will be able to search and retrieve just the right
piece of technical information you need to resolve that customers concern on his machine. This is made possible by
attaching 3 categories to each piece of technical information during the authoring process.
The first category is the Location, the second category is the Information Type and the third category is the Product:
LOCATION - is the component or function on the machine, that the piece of technical information is going to
•
describe e.g. Fuel tank.
INFORMATION TYPE - is the piece of technical information that has been written for a particular component or
•
function on the machine e.g. Capacity would be a type of Technical Data that would describe the amount
of fuel held by the Fuel tank.
PRODUCT - is the model that the piece of technical information is written for.
•
Every piece of technical information will have those 3 categories attached to it. You will be able to use any
combination of those categories to find the right piece of technical information you need to resolve that customers
concern on his machine.
That information could be:
the description of how to remove the cylinder head
•
a table of specifications for a hydraulic pump
•
a fault code
•
a troubleshooting table
•
a special tool
•
How to Use this Manual
This manual is divided into Sections. Each Section is then divided into Chapters. Contents pages are included at
the beginning of the manual, then inside every Section and inside every Chapter. An alphabetical Index is included
at the end of a Chapter. Page number references are included for every piece of technical information listed in
the Chapter Contents or Chapter Index.
Each Chapter is divided into four Information types:
Technical Data (specifications) for all the mechanical, electrical or hydraulic devices, components and,
•
assemblies.
Functional Data (how it works) for all the mechanical, electrical or hydraulic devices, components and
•
assemblies.
Diagnostic Data (fault codes, electrical and hydraulic troubleshooting) for all the mechanical, electrical or
•
hydraulic devices, components and assemblies.
