Procedure for Traction Circuit Relief Pressure Test<br />

1. Make sure hydraulic oil is at normal operating temperature<br />

by operating the machine for approximately 10<br />

minutes. Make sure the hydraulic tank is full.<br />

CAUTION<br />

Move machine to an open area, away from people<br />

and obstructions.<br />

2. Drive machine to an open area, lower cutting deck,<br />

turn the engine off and engage the parking brake.<br />

9. When testing is completed, disconnect pressure<br />

gauge from test port.<br />

CAUTION<br />

Prevent personal injury and/or damage to equipment.<br />

Read all WARNINGS, CAUTIONS and Pre<strong>caution</strong>s<br />

for Hydraulic Testing at the beginning<br />

of this section.<br />

3. Connect a 10,000 PSI (700 bar) gauge to traction circuit<br />

test port for function to be checked (Forward or Reverse:<br />

Fig. 22 or 23).<br />

4. After installing pressure gauge, start engine and run<br />

at idle speed. Check for hydraulic leakage and correct<br />

before proceeding with test.<br />

5. Operate the engine at full speed (2870 RPM).Make<br />

sure that transport/4WD switch is in the transport position.<br />

6. Sit on seat, apply brakes fully and slowly depress the<br />

traction pedal in the appropriate direction. While pushing<br />

traction pedal, look at pressure reading on gauge:<br />

GAUGE READING TO BE:<br />

Forward: 3750 to 4250 PSI (259 to 293 bar)<br />

Reverse: 4750 to 5250 PSI (328 to 362 bar)<br />

7. Release traction pedal and stop engine. Record test<br />

results.<br />

8. If traction pressure is too low, inspect traction pump<br />

relief valves (Fig. 24). Clean or replace valves as necessary.<br />

These cartridge type valves are factory set and are<br />

not adjustable. If relief valves are in good condition, traction<br />

pump or wheel motors should be suspected of wear<br />

and inefficiency.<br />

NOTE: Seal leakage across pilot directional valves<br />

PD1 and PD2 in 4WD manifold can also cause low forward<br />

traction pressure with reverse pressure meeting<br />

specifications.<br />
