This document is a service and repair manual for Hyster F187 series forklifts, specifically covering models S40FT, S50FT, S60FT, S70FT, and S55FTS. It provides comprehensive diagrams and schematics essential for the maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair of these industrial vehicles. The manual is designed for trained and experienced technicians, emphasizing safety precautions and the use of Hyster-approved parts to ensure proper operation and longevity of the equipment.
Function Description:
The Hyster F187 series forklifts are industrial lift trucks designed for material handling operations. They are utilized for lifting, moving, and stacking various loads in warehouses, distribution centers, and other industrial environments. The manual covers the electrical and hydraulic systems that govern the forklift's core functions, including engine operation, transmission control, and hydraulic lifting mechanisms. It details the intricate wiring and component layouts for different engine types (Mazda Gas/LPG, GM Gas/LPG, Yanmar Diesel, Cummins Diesel) and transmission systems (Standard Powershift, Spicer Off-Highway), allowing technicians to diagnose and repair issues related to power, control, and motion.
Important Technical Specifications (as inferred from the table of contents and diagrams):
The manual covers a range of Hyster forklift models, each with specific engine and transmission configurations.

- GM (2010) 2.4L Gas and LPG Engines.
- Yanmar 2.6L and 3.3L Diesel Engines.
- GM (2010) 4.3L Gas and LPG Engines.
- Cummins 3.3L Diesel Engine.
- GM (2010) 5.7L LPG Engine.
- Transmission Types:
- Standard (Powershift) Transmission.
- Spicer Off-Highway Transmission (3 Forward/2 Reverse and 2 Forward/2 Reverse variants).
- Hydraulic Systems:
- Electronic Control Valve Hydraulic System (with Gear Pump or Variable Displacement Pump).
- Manual Control Valve Hydraulic System.
- Electronic Control Valve Hydraulic and Brake System (for heavier models like H8.0FT, H9.0FT).
- Hydraulic Transmission and Brake Cooling System.
- Electrical Systems:
- Power Distribution Module (PDM) for power management.
- Vehicle System Manager (VSM) for overall system control.
- CANbus (Controller Area Network) for communication between electronic components.
- Various sensors (e.g., O2 sensors, CAM sensor, oil pressure, engine RPM, fuel level, accelerator pedal, impact sensor, water temperature, intake air temperature, FAP sensor) and actuators (e.g., fuel injectors, ignition coils, glow plugs, throttle actuator).
- Lighting and Cab Accessories.
- Safety features like the "Type S Option Electrical Schematic" for UL Safety rated trucks (GS, LPS, DS depending on fuel type).
Usage Features (from a maintenance perspective):
The manual provides detailed schematics that illustrate the electrical and hydraulic pathways within the forklift. These diagrams are crucial for:
- Troubleshooting: Technicians can trace circuits, identify faulty components, and understand the interconnections between different systems. The "Arrow Symbol" and "Hexagon Symbol" guide users to specified pages or sheets for detailed information, streamlining the diagnostic process.
- Component Identification: The schematics clearly label components, connectors, and wire colors, aiding in accurate identification and replacement. The "Table 1. Wire Colors" provides a standardized guide for wire functions (e.g., Red for battery power, Black for heavy current grounds, Twisted Pair for CANbus).
- System Understanding: By visualizing the entire system, technicians can gain a deeper understanding of how various parts work together, which is essential for complex repairs and adjustments.
- Preventive Maintenance: Understanding the system layout helps in performing routine checks and identifying potential points of failure before they lead to major breakdowns.
Maintenance Features:
The manual emphasizes several key aspects of maintenance and repair:
- Safety Precautions: A dedicated section outlines critical safety measures, including disconnecting battery connectors, using correct blocks for support, wearing safety glasses, and handling flammable fuels with care. It also highlights the importance of "DO NOT OPERATE" tags during repairs.
- Approved Parts: The manual stresses the exclusive use of "HYSTER APPROVED parts" to ensure that replacement components meet or exceed original equipment manufacturer specifications, thereby maintaining the forklift's performance and safety standards.
- Trained Technicians: The document is explicitly intended for "trained and experienced technicians," underscoring the complexity of the systems and the need for professional expertise.
- Documentation and Updates: The manual notes that it is updated regularly, and technicians should consult their authorized Hyster dealer for the latest technical service information, reflecting the dynamic nature of product design and service requirements.
- Structured Information: The table of contents is meticulously organized, categorizing diagrams by engine type, transmission type, and specific electrical/hydraulic systems. This structure allows technicians to quickly navigate to the relevant section for their specific model and issue. For example, "Figure 2. Mazda (2007) 2.0L and 2.2L Gas Engine" leads to detailed schematics for that particular engine, broken down into multiple sheets for clarity.
- Visual Aids: The use of color in diagrams (when viewed or printed in color) enhances readability and helps in distinguishing different circuits and components. Even without color, circuit identification numbers provide clear references.
- Diagnostic Support: The manual refers to a separate "Diagnostic Troubleshooting Manual" (9000SRM1112 Section 9030, Group 03) for further diagnostic information, indicating a comprehensive support ecosystem for Hyster forklifts.
