These results suggest that your physical model is unstable. A linear model of a triatomic species is not stable. A more appropriate approach is to use virtual sites as in the following tutorial:

Also note that your cutoffs should not be dictated by your box size, rather the opposite should be true. The cutoffs are an essential part of the force field model and changing them haphazardly can easily invalidate that force field model.
