Defect

In the power transmission system, insufficient frame rigidity at the main shift lever mounting point allows the frame to flex, which may shift the pivot position of the main shift lever. Additionally, improper mounting of the transmission allows axle loads to apply rotational torque to the transmission case, which may alter the HST (hydrostatic continuously variable transmission) trunnion position. As a result, placing the main shift lever in the neutral position may not bring the machine to a stop.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, add corrected parts.

状況

5.動力伝達装置において、主変速レバー取り付け部のフレーム剛性が不足しているため、フレームがたわみ主変速レバー支点部の位置が移動する場合がある。また、トランスミッションの固定方法が不適切なため、車軸からの負荷でトランスミッションケースに回転トルクがかかり、HST(静油圧式無段変速機)トラニオン位置が変化する場合がある。そのため、主変速レバーを中立位置にしても、機体が停止しないおそれがある。

改善措置

5.全車両、対策部品を追加する。
