Daewoo Solar 400LC-V 2000 Workshop Manual

If you are wrenching on a Daewoo Solar 400LC-V 2000 Workshop Manual is what you need on the bench – not a generic aftermarket scan that guesses torque values or leaves out the safety lockout procedures. I have seen too many guys pull head bolts to 80 ft-lbs on a spec that should be 120 because the PDF they obtained from some forum was for a different model year. That mistake costs you a head gasket and a weekend. This manual is the original OEM document from Daewoo, serial number 1001 and up, dated November 2000. 612 pages of factory engineering data, not a reprint or a copy.

Specs and Dimensions: What Engineers Wrote Down

The Specifications section (section S0208000) lays out everything: general dimensions, working range, engine performance curves per KS-R1004 standard, and approximate weight of workload materials. Page 1 lists the serial number identification and the pub number 2023-7140AE. That is important when ordering parts – you match serial ranges, not guesses. If you need to know the travel speed test conditions or cylinder performance standards, that data is here with the factory test procedures. No extrapolating from a generic table.

Safety Procedures: Not Optional

Track excavator safety (S0102000) covers more than just warning labels. It tells you about high-voltage cable avoidance, solid support blocking requirements, and the fact that high pressure hydraulic lines can store energy even with the engine off. There is a specific section on boost starting batteries and why you never use ether starting aids. The manual also includes lockout/tagout procedures for maintenance. I have seen a guy lose a hand because he skipped the accumulator depressurization step. That accident is in the manual on page 5 in the table of contents under Safety. Read it before you touch a fitting.

Upper Structure and Hydraulics Coverage

Upper Structure section covers cab, counterweight, fuel tank, fuel transfer pump, swing bearing, and swing reduction gearbox. If you are pulling the cab or swapping the swing drive, the factory steps are there. The Hydraulics section (S0702090) includes system troubleshooting, testing, and adjustment – plus accumulator service and center joint procedures. Want the charge pressure spec? It is in the hydraulic troubleshooting chart. Do not trust an aftermarket site that says “around 3000 psi” – get the exact psi from the manual.

Torque Specs and Fluid Capacities

Standard torques are listed in section S0309000. Not a generic table – these are Daewoo specific for fasteners on the Solar 400LC-V. The manual also gives you the correct tightening sequence for swing bearing bolts, track tension adjustment specs, and the right oil viscosity for your region. You do not need to wonder if your torque wrench is set right. The spec is printed there.

3 Reasons to Choose OEM Documentation

Reason one: you get the original safety warnings and lockout procedures. Reason two: every page is scanned from the factory binder – no missing pages, no blurred wiring diagrams. Reason three: the manual includes updates through serial number 1001 and up, so it matches your machine if yours is in that range. Try matching that with a third-party manual that says “covers up to 2001” but leaves out the mid-year changes. You will waste billable hours chasing wrong specs. This is the real document.

FAQ

Does this manual cover the fuel system?

Yes. The Upper Structure section includes Fuel Tank (S0405030) and Fuel Transfer Pump (S0405500). You get removal, installation, and testing procedures.

What about the air conditioner?

Covered under Engine and Drive Train – Air-Conditioner (S0605010). Includes troubleshooting, compressor service, and refrigerant handling precautions.

Are wiring diagrams included?

Yes. The manual contains electrical schematics for the entire machine – engine controls, swing circuit, travel controls, and cab instrumentation. They are factory diagrams with wire colors and connector pinouts.

What torque value is listed for the swing bearing bolts?

The Standard Torques section (S0309000) gives the specific value. You need to look it up – I am not going to type a number here because you should verify it from the manual itself. That is how professionals work.
