SERVICE MACHINES SAFELY
Tie long hair behind your head. Do not wear a necktie,
scarf, loose clothing, or necklace when you work near
machine tools or moving parts. If these items were to get
caught, severe injury could result.
Remove rings and other jewelry to prevent electrical
shorts and entanglement in moving parts.
WORK IN VENTILATED AREA
Engine exhaust fumes can cause sickness or death. If it
is necessary to run an engine in an enclosed area,
remove the exhaust fumes from the area with an
exhaust pipe extension.
If you do not have an exhaust pipe extension, open the
doors and get outside air into the area.
ILLUMINATE WORK AREA SAFELY
Illuminate your work area adequately but safely. Use a
portable safety light for working inside or under the
machine. Make sure the bulb is enclosed by a wire
cage. The hot filament of an accidentally broken bulb
can ignite spilled fuel or oil.

USE PROPER LIFTING EQUIPMENT
Lifting heavy components incorrectly can cause severe
injury or machine damage.
Follow recommended procedure for removal and
installation of components in the manual.
AVOID HEATING NEAR PRESSURIZEDFLUID LINES
Flammable spray can be generated by heating near
pressurized fluid lines, resulting in severe burns to
yourself and bystanders. Do not heat by welding,
soldering, or using a torch near pressurized fluid lines or
other flammable materials. Pressurized lines can be
accidentally cut when heat goes beyond the immediate
flame area.
REMOVE PAINT BEFORE WELDING ORHEATING
Avoid potentially toxic fumes and dust.
Hazardous fumes can be generated when paint is
heated by welding, soldering, or using a torch.
Do all work outside or in a well ventilated area. Dispose
of paint and solvent properly.
Remove paint before welding or heating:
· If you sand or grind paint, avoid breathing the dust.
Wear an approved respirator.
· If you use solvent or paint stripper, remove stripper
with soap and water before welding. Remove solvent or
paint stripper containers and other flammable material
from area. Allow fumes to disperse at least 15 minutes
before welding or heating.

KEEP ROPS INSTALLED PROPERLY
Make certain all parts are reinstalled correctly if the
roll-over protective structure (ROPS) is loosened or
removed for any reason. Tighten mounting bolts to
proper torque.
The protection offered by ROPS will be impaired if
ROPS is subjected to structural damage, is involved in
an overturn incident, or is in any way altered by welding,
bending, drilling, or cutting. A damaged ROPS should be
replaced, not reused.
SERVICE TIRES SAFELY
Explosive separation of a tire and rim parts can cause
serious injury or death.
Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the
proper equipment and experience to perform the job.
Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate
the tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld
or heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause
an increase in air pressure resulting in a tire explosion.
Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.
When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension
hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side and
NOT in front of or over the tire assembly. Use a safety
cage if available.
Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, damaged
rims or missing lug bolts and nuts.

area clean and dry.
Never lubricate, service, or adjust machine while it is
moving. Keep hands, feet , and clothing from
power-driven parts. Disengage all power and operate
controls to relieve pressure. Lower equipment to the
ground. Stop the engine. Remove the key. Allow
machine to cool.
Securely support any machine elements that must be
raised for service work.
Keep all parts in good condition and properly installed.
Fix damage immediately. Replace worn or broken parts.
Remove any buildup of grease, oil, or debris.
Disconnect battery ground cable (-) before making
adjustments on electrical systems or welding on
machine.
USE PROPER TOOLS
Use tools appropriate to the work. Makeshift tools and
procedures can create safety hazards.
Use power tools only to loosen threaded parts and
fasteners.
For loosening and tightening hardware, use the correct
size tools. DO NOT use U.S. measurement tools on
metric fasteners. Avoid bodily injury caused by slipping
wrenches.
Use only service parts meeting John Deere
specifications.

DISPOSE OF WASTE PROPERLY
Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the
environment and ecology. Potentially harmful waste used
with John Deere equipment include such items as oil,
fuel, coolant, brake fluid, filters, and batteries.
Use leakproof containers when draining fluids. Do not
use food or beverage containers that may mislead
someone into drinking from them.
Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or
into any water source.
Air conditioning refrigerants escaping into the air can
damage the Earth's atmosphere. Government regulations
may require a certified air conditioning service center to
recover and recycle used air conditioning refrigerants.
Inquire on the proper way to recycle or dispose of waste
from your local environmental or recycling center, or from
your John Deere dealer.

TOWING PROCEDURE
If there is no damage, the machine may be towed for
a distance of approximately 1.5 kilometers (1 mile).
Always use a rigid tow bar, ensure that the gear lever
is in neutral. Restrict towing speed to 25 km/h
(15 mph).
If it is necessary to tow the machine for a distance in
excess of 1.5 kilometers (1 mile), the axle drive
shafts should be disconnected to prevent damage to
the transmission system.
IMPORTANT: Removal or disconnection of the
axle drive shaft(s) will disable the
parking brake. It is essential that the
following procedure be adopted.
Position the maschine on firm level ground and block
the wheels securely to prevent any movement. Select
neutral and release the parking brake.
Disconnect the rear drive shaft(s) from the axle(s),
and tie up the shaft securely well clear of the rotating
axle yoke. Alternatively remove the shaft(s)
completely.
Connect the towing vehicle via the tow bar before
removing the blocks from the wheels. Restrict the
towing speed to 25 km/h (15 mph).
When towing is complete, block the wheels securely
before removing the tow bar and reconnecting the
drive shafts.
IMPORTANT: In some countries neither of the
procedures described above may be
legally acceptable for towing on
public highways.

The transmission consists of a torque converter,
mounted on the engine, and a separately mounted
drop gearbox. The gearbox comprises a hydraulic
reverser unit, 4-speed synchromesh gear system and
a four-wheel drive clutch assembly.
The reverser unit (A) consists of a pair of
hydraulically operated drive clutches giving
forward-neutral-reverse drive. Oil pressure is provided
by a crescent-type pump (B) which is driven at
engine speed by the drive lugs of the torque
converter (C). The oil pressure is controlled by
maintenance valve (D) and clutch selection is
achieved by means of solenoid valve (E). See
ªReverser Clutch Operationº in this Group for further
information on the reverser unit.
Drive is transferred from the reverser unit by helical
gears to the mainshaft (F), which carries the 3rd/4th
synchromesh unit (G), and to the countershaft (H),
which carries the 1st/2nd synchromesh unit (J). The
synchromesh units are of the blocking pin type.
Drive is finally transmitted from the countershaft (H)
via the output gear (K) to both axles. In two-wheel
drive a hydraulically operated clutch (L) disconnects
the drive from the rear axle.

SYNCHRONIZER DESCRIPTION
The gearbox is fitted with blocking pin synchromesh,
comprising the following parts:
Synchro Hub (A) controls the operation of the
synchromesh unit and gear selection, the selector fork
fitting into the outer groove. Internal dog teeth link the
selected gear to the drive shaft. Through the synchro
hub center are two sets of holes for the blocker pins (C)
and the split energiser pin (D), spaced alternately.
Synchro rings (B) are rigidly joined by the blocker pins,
with the split energiser pins held, in counterbores,
between the two synchro rings.
Blocker pins (C) have a narrow neck in the center,
against which the synchro hub transmits radial drive
during gear changes. The edges of the blocker pin neck
and their mating synchro hub holes are designed so that,
as the radial loads are reduced, the synchro hub can
slide over the shoulder of the blocker pin.
Split energiser pins (D) take the initial axial load of the
synchro hub on the shoulder of the split energiser pin
neck. As the axial load reaches approximately 400 N
(40.8 kg; 90Ib) the internal springs allow the split
energiser pin to collapse and the synchro hub to move
axially.
Synchro cups (E) take the frictional drive from the
synchro ring on their inner faces. The synchro cups are
splined to drive their respective gears while
synchronisation is taking place.

SYNCHRONIZER OPERATION
Diagram (F) shows the gearbox with first gear
engaged. Synchro ring (B) is in contact with synchro
cup (E) and the synchro hub dog teeth are linking
first gear to the shaft gear. In this position the split
energiser pins (D) are collapsed.
When selecting second gear the synchro hub (A)
slides along the split energiser pins until the pin
recess and the synchro hub flange are in line. At this
point the split energiser pins open and the synchro
rings are moved by the synchro hub pushing on the
split energiser pin shoulder.
Initial contact between the synchro ring and the
synchro cup starts to synchronise the speed of the
shaft and second gear. The rotational force of the
synchro ring is taken by the block pin against the
egde of the synchro hub hole, as at (G).
As the axial load on the synchro hub increases, the
split energiser pin collapses and the conical faces of
the blocking pin and synchro hub hole come into
contact, as at (H).
Further increases in the axial loads increase the
frictional grip of the synchro ring and the synchro
cup, causing the shaft and gear speeds to
synchronise.
As the speeds are synchronised, the radial load on
the blocker pin and the synchro hub is reduced. This
allows the synchro hub to slide freely along the
blocker pin and engage its dog teeth with second
gear, see diagram (J).

FORWARD/REVERSE DRIVE CLUTCH OPERATION
In neutral, the flow of pressurised oil to the clutches
is blocked by the solenoid valve. When either forward
or reverse is selected, the solenoid valve diverts
pressurised oil via the reverser shaft to the
appropriate clutch in the reverser unit. Pressure from
the other clutch is vented to the sump via the
solenoid valve spool.

CLUTCH OPERATION FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
AÐSolenoid valve CÐPiston DÐDisk springs EÐDrive output flange
BÐClutch friction/counter
plates
Four-wheel drive switched ON
The clutch is engaged and disengaged by introducing
or dumping pressurised oil behind piston (C) via a
solenoid valve (A). The solenoid valve is controlled by
a toggle switch inside the cab.
When the toggle switch is in the 4 wheel drive
position, solenoid valve (A) is de-energised, the oil
supply to the piston (C) is blocked (shown at port 3).
The solenoid valve in the de-energised position also
vents oil from the back of piston (C) to the sump via
ports 1 and 2.
Because there is no pressure behind piston (C),
clutch friction/counter plates (B) are forced togther by
disk springs (D), thus driving 4 wheel drive output
flange (E).

Front wheel drive switched OFF
When the toggle switch is in the 2 wheel drive
position, solenoid valve (A) is energised. The
energised valve causes spool (H) to move to the right
and forms a connection between ports 3 and 2.
Pressurised oil is directed to piston (C) via ports 3
and 2. The piston moves actuating sleeve (F) and
then pressure plate (G) against the force of springs
(D), thus releasing spring force on the clutch
friction/counter plates (B).
The clutch plates now freely rotate on the output
shaft thus disengaging drive to the front axle.
When the brake pedal(s) are pressed, the machine
will go automatically into 4 wheel drive and the
indicator light will go out. When the brake pedal(s) is
released the machine will revert to 2 wheel drive and
the indicator light will be illuminated.

DISASSEMBLY OF THE TORQUE CONVERTER HOUSING
1. Using a suitable tool to prevent the drive shaft
yoke from turning, unscrew retaining stake nut (1).
Remove the nut, washer (2) and yoke (3) from the
splined shaft. Discard the stake nut. Repeat for stake
nut (4), washer (5) and yoke (6).
2. Remove and discard seal (7).
3. Loosen and remove the six retaining screws (8).
Lift the valve/pump assembly (9) away from cover
(10). Put the valve/pump to one side unless the
reason for disassembly is a fault in these
components. In such a situation proceed to step (9).
4. Lift out gear (11), located against the bell housing,
from inside the cover (10). Check for damage to the
drive dogs. Damage indicates misalignment during
assembly and, if excessive, necessitates replacement
of the gear.
5. Inspect the thrust washers (12) for damage and if
necessary discard and renew. Damaged thrust
washers are a sign of damage to the surfaces
against which they run. Check the relevant surfaces
of the gear and the bell housing for scoring, dress if
necessary and clean thoroughly. If the surfaces are
badly scored, renew the components. Remove and
discard PTFE washer (13) and O-ring (14).
6. Unscrew bolts (15) and separate cover (10) from
bell housing (16). See NOTE at step 3.
7. If necessary, remove drive shaft yoke oil seal (17).
8. Lift out the assembly comprising drive shaft and
gear (18), bearing (19) from the bell housing. Check
the bearings for wear and if necessary remove and
renew.
9. Return to the valve/pump assembly (9) removed at
step 3. Remove banjo bolt (20) and adapter (21).
Discard the two O-rings (22) and (23) from the banjo
bolt and the O-ring (24) from the face of the adapter.
10. Remove snap ring (25) and withdraw the
assembly comprising drive shaft (26), bearing (27),
seal (28), snap ring (29) and PTFE ring (30).
11. Remove the four retaining bolts (31) and lift the
transmission oil pump clear of the valve.
12. Remove and discard rubber pump sealing ring
(32).
13. Separate the cover plate (33) and shaft (34) of
the pump. Check that gear (35) rotates freely but
without discernible play on its white metal bearing.
Also look for debris and/or signs of scoring.
Check pump gear (36) for free movement in cover
plate (33). Also check for debris and/or signs of
scoring. Examine the gear drive dogs, damage to
which indicates misalignment during assembly.
14. Remove plug (37) and take out the pressure
maintaining valve components (38, 39, 40). Check
that spool (40) moves freely in its bore and that it
does not stick against its seat (using a magnetic
probe should move it in and out). If necessary dress
the seat and fit a new spool. Severe damage will
necessitate renewal of the valve block.
Remove plug (41) and take out the torque converter
relief valve components (42, 43, 44). Check the ball
(44) and seat for signs of damage. If necessary dress
the seat and renew the ball. Severe damage will
necessitate renewal of the valve block.

PRESSURE AND FLOW TEST
N CAUTION: Take care when disconnecting
hydraulic hoses and fittings as the oil will
be hot.
1. Stop engine, disconnect filter flow/return hoses
from the converter valve block and connect flow
meter assembly (D), and connect a 0-2000 kPa (0-20
bar; 290 psi) pressure gauge to screwed connector
(E).
2. Start engine and run at 1000 rpm. The flowmeter
will show the pump flow which should be as shown in
Specifications. A low reading indicates a worn pump
or blocked suction strainer. The pressure gauge will
show the main line pressure (see Specifications). A
low reading can be caused by either a faulty pressure
maintenance valve or a worn pump. A high reading
indicates a faulty pressure maintenance valve or, if
the pump flow is low, the oil cooler may be blocked.
3. Stop engine, remove flow test adapters and refit
filter. Connect pressure gauge and flowmeter into
converter out line as shown at (F). Run engine at
1000 rpm with transmission in neutral. Note converter
out pressure and oil cooler flow, which should be as
shown in Specifications. A high pressure together with
low flow could be caused by a blocked oil cooler.
(See also check 7.)
4. With parking brake and footbrake firmly applied,
select forward and check flow reading, which should
not fall by more than 4.5 liters (1.2 US gal) per
minute. A low reading indicates a high leakage rate in
that particular clutch, which could be caused by worn
or broken piston seals or shaft sealing rings. Select
reverse and repeat the test.
5. If the clutch leakage rate is high, the clutch
pressures may be checked by connecting the
pressure gauge into ports (G) and (H) and repeating
test (4). A low reading would confirm a high leakage
rate in the particular clutch selected.
6. Stop engine, connect the pressure gauge into port
(J) in the converter valve block, and fit a load valve
(L) into the converter out line (see note).
Start engine, run at 1000 rpm and slowly screw down
the load valve while observing the gauge reading,
which should rise to setting of the converter relief
(safety) valve .
If the reading is higher than specified, the relief
(safety) valve must be faulty. A low reading indicates
a faulty relief (safety) valve, leaking converter piston
ring type seal or leaking pump seal.
7. Stop engine and connect pressure gauge and
flowmeter into return line from oil cooler to converter
valve block as shown at (K). Start engine, and with
transmission in neutral check flowmeter reading,
which will show the cooler flow rate (see
Specifications). The pressure gauge will show the
lubrication pressure (see Specifications). Low flow
and pressure readings could indicate a blocked oil
cooler.

TRANSMISSION TESTING
Ensure that the engine and transmission are at normal
working temperature. Run the engine at maximum speed
and check the No load speed (2410 rpm ). If the engine
does not reach the maximum no load speed, then check
the engine condition, i.e fuel filters, throttle cable
adjustment, air cleaner condition, fuel injection equipment
etc. Apply the footbrakes firmly and select 3rd gear and
four wheel drive. Open the throttle fully and select
forward drive. Note the engine speed which is now also
the Torque Converter Stall Speed. Do not stall the
torque converter for more than 20 seconds or the
transmission oil will overheat. If the engine speeds are
higher than those stated, check the transmission for
clutch slippage or internal leakage. If the engine speeds
are below those stated, the fault is with the engine and
should be repaired accordingly.

PRESSURE AND FLOW TESTING
The following tests must only be carried out in order
and step by step.
Take care when disconnecting hydraulic hoses and
fittings as the oil will be hot.
1. Stop engine, disconnect filter flow/return hoses
from the converter valve block or transmission filter
and connect the flow meter assembly (D). Connect a
0-2000 kPa; 0-20 bar (0 - 290 psi) pressure gauge to
screwed connector (E).
2. Start the engine and run at 1000 rpm. The flow
meter will show pump flow. A low reading indicates a
worn pump or blocked suction strainer. The pressure
gauge will show the main line pressure. A low
reading can be caused by either a faulty pressure
maintenance valve or, if pump flow is low, a blocked
oil cooler.
3. Stop the engine, remove the flow test adapters
and refit the filter. Connect pressure gauge and flow
meter into converter out line as shown at (F). Run
engine at 1000 rpm with transmission in neutral and
note converter out pressure and oil cooler flow which
should be as specified. A high pressure together with
a low flow could be caused by a blocked oil cooler.
4. With the footbrake firmly applied, select forward
and check the flow reading which should not drop by
more than 4.5 l/min (1.2 gal/min). A low reading
indicates a high leakage rate in the forward clutch,
which could be caused by worn or broken piston
seals or shaft sealing rings. Select reverse and
repeat the test.
5. If the clutch leakage rates are high, the clutch
pressures may be tested by connecting the pressure
gauge into ports (G) and (H) and repeating test (4). A
low reading (see Specifications) would confirm a high
leakage rate in the particular clutch selected.
6. Stop the engine, connect the pressure gauge into
port (J) in the converter valve block, and fit a load
valve (L) into the converter out line (see NOTE).
Start the engine and run at 1000 rpm and slowly
screw down the load valve while observing the gauge
reading, which should rise to the setting of the
converter relief valve. Do not allow the pressure to
exceed 1030 kPa; 10.3 bar (150 psi) or damage to
the converter seals will occur. If the reading is higher
than specified, the relief valve must be faulty. A low
reading indicates a faulty relief valve, leaking
converter piston ring type seal or leaking pump seal.
7. Stop engine and connect pressure gauge and flow
meter in the return line from oil cooler to converter
valve block as shown at (K). Start the engine, and
with the transmission in neutral, check flow meter
rate, which will show the cooler flow rate. The
pressure gauge will show the lubrication pressure.
Low flow and pressure readings could indicate a
blocked oil cooler.

PRESSURE TESTING THE 2/4 WD CLUTCH
1. Assemble the 2/4 wheel drive clutch, as described
in Assembly.
2. Check the clutch pack end play and adjust as
required (see Assembly, step 11).
3. Insert the adapter (A) (see NOTE) into the oil
gallery in the end of the 2/4 wheel drive clutch shaft
as shown (via sleeve). Hold the adapter in position
with clamp (B).
4. Use a hand pump to pressurise the clutch
assembly until gear, item (5) can be turned by hand.
5. If the pressure gauge reading is between 860 -
930 kPa (8.6 - 9.3 bar; 124.7 to 134.8 psi), then the
clutch is operating correctly and can be fitted in the
transmission .
6. If, however, the pressure gauge reading is above
930 kPa (9.3 bar; 134.8 psi), then re-check the clutch
for assembly defects, especially the clutch pack end
play (incorrect shim thickness). Re-test after checking
for (and rectifying) assembly defects.

FRONT AXLE REMOVAL
The axles should only be removed once all tests
have been completed to ensure removal of the axle
is absolutely necessary. To remove the front axle,
lower the boom and place a suitable stand
underneath the chassis as shown in figure 1. Release
all the pressure in the braking system by operating
the brake pedal at least thirty times, undo the brake
hose connected to the axle and place a container
underneath the disconnected hose to catch any
residual oil.
Remove the two steering hoses from the center
steering cylinder, catch any residual oil in the
container. Do not remove the wheels as it will be
easier to remove the axle with the wheels still
attached to the axle. Remove the propellor shaft
retaining bolts, lift off the propellor shaft from the axle
drive shaft and retain it away from the area of work.
Release the axle retaining bolts, once these have
been removed the axle is free to wheel out. Wheel
out the axle and place it on a suitable work surface
and undo and remove the wheels.

To set the depth of mesh of the pinion shaft (using
self-manufactured special tool) install the pinion shaft
bearings into the differential support housing and
clamp using the tool. Lightly clamp the bearings so
that the cones can be turned by hand. Do not
overtighten. Install the differential half collars and
tighten using the clamp bolts. Using an internal
micrometer measure the side bore (D) see fig. 46.
Locate the circular bar (2) across the differential
bearing bores in the support casing and using a
depth gauge measure the dimension Y. Determine
the shim thickness by using the following calculation
(fig. 46). N (etched on the face of the pinion shaft) -
B (B = Y -25 (shaft diameter) + 1/2 D). Select the
calculated shim thickness from the range available
and install on the pinion shaft.
Fit the bearings, a new collapsible washer and the shims
as determined in the previous instruction to the pinion
shaft. Tighten the pinion shaft nut until the bearing end
play has been removed. Using a rolling torque meter,
check the rolling torque of the bearings. Tighten the
pinion shaft nut until a rolling torque (fig. 47) of 92 - 138
N´m (67.8 - 101.7 lb-ft) has been obtained.

Refit the differential assembly into the differential support
housing, fit the outer bearing races and the bearing caps
(fig. 48). Tighten the bearing caps so that they can be
adjusted easily, gently tap each bearing housing with a
soft mallet to ensure that the bearings are seated
properly. Screw in the bearing cap on the spiral gear
side of the differential in a clockwise direction until all
movement in the bearing has been removed, i.e. the
bearing cap becomes tight. Repeat this for the other
bearing cap.
Place a dial indicator against the teeth of the crown
wheel and measure the amount of backlash (0.19 - 0.24
mm; 0.007 - 0.009 in.). Measure the backlash at least
twice around the crown wheel and fit the dial indicator
onto the tooth that shows the least amount of backlash.
To adjust the backlash, turn the ring nuts on the sides of
the differential an equal amount. This will move the
crown wheel either closer to or further away from the
pinion gear. Repeat this until the correct setting has
been reached.
To set the differential bearing pre-load, tighten the
bearing ring nuts retaining the differential equally,
ensuring that the backlash is not adjusted and using a
rolling torque meter measure the pre-load of the crown
wheel and pinion, so that the total pre-load is: T where
T=(P + 25 N´m) to (P + 37.6 N´m) where P is the
preload of the pinion shaft prior to fitting the differential
(see fig. 47).
Torque the differential cap nuts to 266 N´m (196 lb-ft).

HYDRAULIC STEERING
The steering system has three different modes to allow
the machine to be more manouverable. The modes are:
1. Front wheel steer. This mode should always be used
for any roadwork carried out by the machine. In this
mode the mode valve receives no electrical current from
the switch in the cab. If an operator can only select front
wheel steer, then the fault may be one of no electrical
supply to the mode valve.
2. Four wheel steer. In this mode all four wheels steer at
once allowing a smaller turning circle and thus greater
manouverability. Electrical current is required by the
mode valve to allow it to divert the oil to the rear
steering cylinder. The wheels need to stay in line (front
to rear). Should they go out of alignment, turn the
steering wheel until the rear wheels are straight ahead.
Turn the steer mode switch to select front wheel steer,
align the front wheels and then reselect four wheel steer.
It is normal to have to do this three or four times a day
if the machine is being operated all day in four wheel
steer. Should the wheels become misaligned more
frequently, then the fault could be faulty steering
cylinders or excessive leakage past the mode valve. Test
the steering cylinders first (as explained on the following
pages). If they are not faulty, then change the mode
valve.
3. Crab steer. With this mode the wheels turn in the
same direction causing the machine to move
side/forwards like a crab. Electrical current is required by
the mode valve to divert oil to the steering cylinders. The
wheels should stay in alignment the same as in four
wheel steer.

TESTING OF THE STEERING SYSTEM
To determine the fault within the steering system,
start the engine and very slowly turn the steering
wheel. If the steering wheel is heavy and difficult to
turn, then the problem is one of a lack of pressure, a
seized steering column or king pins. If the steering
wheel is free to turn, then turn the wheel a little faster
and a little faster until it is heavy to run. If this is the
scenario, then the problem is one of flow. Test the
priority valve and take appropriate action if the fault is
found within the priority valve. If the testing of the
priority valve shows that the fault is elsewhere, then
continue with the steering system testing.
Test 1: Turn off the engine, remove one of the hoses
that feed oil to the right hand side of the front
steering cylinder (fig 22), fit a pressure gauge into
that hose and plug the open port in the steering
cylinder. Run the machine and operate the steering to
the right so that the hose with the pressure gauge
fitted into it comes under pressure. Note the reading
on the pressure gauge. If the reading is the same as
that given at the pressure test port (175 bar; 17500
kPa; 2537.5 psi) on the steering orbitrol, then the
fault is not with the orbitrol valve.
Test 2: There is one hose that feeds pressure oil to
the front steering cylinder on right hand lock and one
that returns oil. When steering to the left, the feed
hose becomes the return hose in the other direction.
Turn the steering to full right hand lock. Remove the
return hoses from the steering cylinder (left hand side
of the front steering cylinder), try to turn the steering
further on full lock. Do not turn the steering to the
opposite lock. If oil flows out of the steering cylinder,
then there is an internal fault with the steering
cylinder. To test the rear steering cylinder, select four
wheel steer and turn to the opposite lock. Remove
the return hoses from the steering cylinder (right hand
side of the rear steering cylinder), try to turn the
steering further on full lock. Do not turn the steering
to the opposite lock.
To test this, misalign the wheels in four wheel steer
so that on right hand lock the rear wheels reach full
lock before the front. Remove the return hose from
the rear steering cylinder, turn the steering to right
hand lock and see if oil flows from the cylinder port.
If it does, then change the cylinder seals. Repeat the
test for left hand lock i.e. the front wheels reach full
lock before the rear wheels. Remove the steering
cylinders if required.
Test 3: The steering needs electrical power in four
wheel and crab steer; see electrical system for the
wiring diagrams.
Removal of the front steering cylinder
Turn the steering to full lock to enable access to the
steering joints. Remove the retaining nuts on the left
hand reduction hub. Repeat for the right hand side.
Remove the steering swivel joint from the right hand
side of the steering rod. Unscrew the four cylinder
retaining bolts. Remove the two hoses that feed and
return oil to the cylinder and plug them. Remove the
hydraulic adapters in the cylinder and remove the
cylinder to the left hand side.
Removal of the rear steering cylinder
Turn the steering to full lock to enable access to the
steering joints. Remove the retaining nuts on the right
hand reduction hub. Repeat for the left hand side.
Remove the steering swivel joint from the left hand
side of the steering rod. Unscrew the four cylinder
retaining bolts. Remove the two hoses that feed and
return oil to the cylinder and plug them. Remove the
hydraulic adapters in the cylinder and remove the

The pressure must be set before refitting the unit to the
machine because the opening pressure is higher than
the maximum pressure permitted in the steering circuit. If
there are no bench test facilities available, then No
attempt to set the pressure should be made. Use a
hand pressure pump with a gauge that will accept at
least 300 bar (30000 kPa; 4350 psi) to set the pressure.
Connect the hand pump to one of the orbitrol outlet ports
as shown in figure 82. Gradually apply pressure until the
shock valve opens (shown by oil leakage from the other
orbitrol outlet port). Note the pressure. If the pressure is
less than 22000 - 24500 kPa (220 - 245 bar; 3190 -
3552.5 psi), then increase the pressure by screwing in
the adjusting screw (figure 81.). Repeat this procedure
until the correct setting is reached.
If the pressure is too high, then unscrew the adjusting
screw until correct pressure is reached. Repeat the
procedure described above for the opposite shock valve.

The steering column is adjustable by means of a pivot
approximately half way up the column. This enables the
column to be moved closer to the operator for a more

BRAKE CIRCUIT
AÐAccumulator CÐTank EÐAxle brake pistons FÐAxle brake pistons
BÐFlow from priority valve DÐFoot brake valve
The braking circuit receives its oil flow from the
priorty valve where the brake charge valve restricts
the pressure to 8500 kPa (85 bar; 1232.5 psi)
maximum in the hydraulic hose feeding the brake
accumulator and the brake valve. The accumulator
retains the brake charge pressure within the braking
circuit so if there is an engine or hydraulic failure the
brake system can still operate. To test the hydraulic
pressures in the braking circuit firstly, release the
pressure within the circuit by shutting off the engine
and operating the brake pedal at least thirty times.
Carefully undo the hydraulic hose feeding oil into the
brake pedal. Fit an in line pressure gauge into the
circuit, start the engine and note the pressure, which
is called the brake charge pressure. This pressure
should be between 12000 kPa (120 bar; 1740 psi)
and 15000 kPa (150 bar; 2175 psi). If not, the
problem is within the priority valve which is explained
in Section 70 of this manual. The brake charge
pressure is preset and cannot be adjusted. The flow
from the priority valve is restricted to 5 liters per
minute (1.32 gal/min).
The brake pedal when depressed feeds oil to the
brake cylinders and also to the underside of the spool
(as shown above) which gives a feeling of
progressive braking. The oil that is fed to the axle
brake pistons is restricted to 8500 kPa (85 bar;
1232.5 psi) by the brake pedal valve. To test this
pressure, release the pressure within the circuit as
previously explained and tee in a suitable pressure
gauge, start the machine, depress the brake pedal
and note the pressure. If it is significantly lower than
8500 kPa (85 bar; 1232.5 psi) when the pedal is fully
depressed, the problem is within the footbrake valve,
As this valve is preset, a replacement must be fitted
in this case.

The numerical sequence shown on the illustration is
intended as a guide to disassembling. For assembly
the sequence should be reversed.
N CAUTION: Brake pads generate dust which
if inhaled, may endanger health. Wash off
the caliper before commencing work. Clean
hands thoroughly after work.
When Disassembling
Brake pads (7) and (8) are removed through the
brake disk slot located in the caliper housing (17).
To remove brake pads (7) and (8), first lever pad (8)
towards the center of housing. Then press brake pad
(7) towards the housing and remove through the
brake disk slot.
Separate brake pad (8) from rotor seal (9). Brake pad
(8) is held in position by center snap tabs. Use care
when removing the friction pad, that is, do not break
off the center snap tabs. Remove brake pad (8), rotor
seal (9) and plain bearing (10) through the brake disk
slot.
Remove rotor (11), ball spacer (12) and ball bearings
(13) through the aperture vacated by the removal of
pad (7). Take care not to lose the ball bearings.
The shaft seal (6) need only be replaced if
excessively worn or cracked. Press out the plastic
shaft seal from inside the casting, using a suitable
spacer block and press. (Spacer block dimensions -
27.38 mm (1.078 in.) diameter x 63.5 mm (2.5 in.)
long.
After the shaft seal is pressed out, remove the sliver
of plastic that may be left in the casting groove.
Inspection
Ensure that all parts are free from excessive wear,
damage or corrosion. Light scores or stains should be
removed. Renew corroded or deeply scored parts.
Check the rotor assembly for cracks. Replace if
necessary. The rotor assembly must be replaced as a
complete unit. No individual parts are available for
service.

When assembling
Stamped on the back of each friction pad is a code.
The first 1 or 2 characters indicate the friction
material type. Make sure that new pads have the
same type friction material.
Install a new shaft seal (6) by inserting the seal from
the outside of the housing (17) with the extended
smooth surface inserted first. Use an appropriate
press. With the spacer (see disassembly), between
the press and the seal, gently press the seal in until
it snaps into the groove in the housing.
Coat the spindle, ball pockets surface of rotor (11),
the inside face of rotor seal (9) and ball pockets of
housing (17) with silicone grease.
Locate the small diameter of spring (5) around the
outside of the four pins on lever (4), and the large
diameter of the spring outside the boss of housing
(17).
With the lever (4) set in the 12 o'clock position (see
inset), screw (1) should be tightened to the figure
shown below. When the screw has been correctly
tightened, bend back the locking tab on anti-rotation
clip (2), as shown in the inset.
Align the flat on pad (8) with the flat on rotor seal (9),
which will allow the pad to sit flat. If the center snap
tabs are gone, dab some adhesive around the back
edge of the friction pad (8) and press firmly into place
(align flat as described).
Before fitting the friction pad (7), clean out existing
pad adhesive from the pad compartment. Place a
layer of suitable adhesive along the back edge of the
friction pad and press firmly into position.
Once assembled, stroke lever (4) in its direction of
operation. The lever must rotate through 60 degrees
of rotation. Allow the lever to return to its original
position (12 o'clock) and make sure that friction pad
(8) is fully returned.
The O-rings (15) and (16) must be assembled into
grooves in housing (17) and lubricated with silicone
grease prior to insertion of bushings (14). Wipe off
any excess grease.
Set the caliper as described in setting procedure.

HYDRAULICS - PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The basic principle of hydraulics is to use oil power
to operate a mechanical system. A liquid cannot be
compressed, so as the liquid (oil) flows it will try to
move anything in its path. The resistance to flow
created by operating a function creates an operating
pressure which can be regulated by means of a
pressure relief valve. This valve is designed to
prevent damage to the system components caused
by excessive pressure. If there is no operation of a
function, there will be no resistance to the flow of oil
so it can pass around the circuit freely. The hydraulic
pump does not create any pressure, it only creates
flow. The pump is able to supply flow to a restricted
circuit. If the restriction is too great, then the pressure
will rise above the setting of the relief valve which will
open allowing the flow to return to the tank under no
restriction. The system consists of a suction filter,
hydraulic pump, priority valve, control valves, steering
orbitrol and a return line filter (fig. 1). The first item in
the circuit is the suction filter which takes out any
large pieces of contamination that may have found
the way into the hydraulic tank.
The hydraulic pump is driven from the engine timing
case at the rear of the machine. The priority valve is
situated in the center well of the chassis at the left
hand side close to the cab. The purpose of the valve
is to supply oil flow to the two priority circuits being
the steering and braking system. The steering orbitrol
valve feeds oil to the steering cylinders. The control
valves are bolted to the top of the hydraulic tank.
Their function is to divert oil from the main circuit to
the individual functions as required by the operator.
Finally the return line filter, which is the last item in
the circuit, is bolted to the hydraulic tank. Its purpose
is to remove any contamination from the system
before the oil is returned to the tank.

The hydraulic pump is of the gear type, which means
that the flow from it is constant compared to a
constant engine rpm. There are two connections on
the pump. The hoses are suction and flow to and
from the pump. The flow from the pump is variable
with engine rpm, i.e. as engine rpm rises so does the
pump flow. When a function cylinder reaches the end
of its stroke, the pressure rises in both the cylinder
and the load sense line. Once the pressure reaches
21000 kPa (210 bar), the main relief valve opens
allowing the pump to return the hydraulic oil to the
tank. (Load sense line is an internal line within the
main control valve)
TESTING THE HYDRAULIC PUMP
Before testing the hydraulic pump it is important that
the hydraulic oil is at a minimum operating
temperature of 50ÊC (122ÊF). All tests must be carried
out with the engine at high idle speed.
1. Remove the 'flow in' hose from the priority valve
and fit a flow meter and pressure gauge 25000 kPa
(250 bar; 3625 psi) with a shut off tab into the hose
and return it to tank.
2. Remove the return line filter in the top of the
hydraulic tank.
3. Check that the suction filter inside the hydraulic
tank is clean.
4. Ensure that the shut-off valve is fully open or
damage to the pump will occur.
5. Run the machine at 2200 engine rpm. Note the
flow from the pump: 66 l/min for 4400 and 93 l/min
for 4500 (17 gpm for 4400 and 25 gpm for 4500).
6. Slowly increase the pressure by turning the
shut-off valve.
7. Do not allow the pressure to rise above that of the
pressure relief valve setting, which should be either
21000 kPa (210 bar; 4400) or 24100 kPa (241 bar;
4500). Damage to the hydraulic pump will occur if
these pressures are exceeded as the pump has NO
relief valve protection with the test equipment fitted at
this point.
8. Note the rate of flow, it should not have dropped
more than 20 % of the flow rates stated in test 5. If it
has, the pump should be repaired or replaced.

CONCLUSION
If the flow rate in test 5 is significantly lower than stated,
either the oil supply to the pump, engine speed or the
pump is faulty. If the pump is suspected, continue with
the test procedure. If the fault is in the pump, the flow
will drop further when the pressure rises. If the flows in
test 5 are correct or close to the correct figure (within 5
%), but the flow drops by more than 20 % as the
pressure is increased, then the pump is worn.

PUMP REPLACEMENT
Clean the mating surfaces of the hydraulic pump.
Replace the mounting bolts. Fit a new seal to the suction
hose where its connects to the pump and reconnect the
suction hose. Pour some clean hydraulic oil into the
outlet of the pump and allow it to drain through the
pump. Continue to do this until 1 liter (0.2642 gal) of oil
has passed through the pump. This will lubricate and
prime the pump to prevent immediate damage to the
pump components when the engine is started. Connect
the outlet hose to the pump, start the engine and run at
low idle speed for a maximum of 20 seconds. If the
steering is not operational, stop the engine and re-prime
the pump. If the steering is operational, then restart the
engine and test the system.

NO STEERING AT ALL
If the steering is not operational, but the control valve
hydraulics are working correctly, then the priority valve
must be supplying all the oil from the hydraulic pump to
the control valve hydraulics. In this case the main spool
(item 5) must be jammed in the open position. Remove
the valve, clean and inspect. Refit the spool. If the fault
remains, change the priority valve. If there is no steering
or main control valve hydraulics, then the pump drive
and operation should be checked.

CONTROL VALVE HYDRAULICS
Should there be no operation of the control valve
hydraulics but the steering is O.K., the fault may not
necessarily be with the priority valve. The control valve
should be tested thoroughly before the priority valve is
suspected to be at fault (see ªFault Findingº Group to
test the control valve). If the steering and brakes are
working correctly, and there is no flow of oil to the
control valve when the steering is being operated at the
same time as a function, then the fault is within the
priority valve. If there is a flow of oil when the steering is
operated at the same time as a function, then the fault is
within the control valve (see ªFault Findingº Group within
this Section).
CABLE
The operation of the control valve for the cable machines
is done by means of a series of cables from the control
cab. There are various protection valves within the
system which will be covered in detail later in this
section of the manual. The control valve for the
operation of the hydraulic functions is situated
underneath the front cover and is bolted onto the front
chassis. The control valve is operated by means of a
cable from the cab. Once the cable is operated then a
spool within the control valve is moved allowing oil to be
diverted to the appropriate cylinder. The system is 'full
load sensing' which means that oil from the hydraulic
pump is only supplied to the control when a function is
operated thus reducing the wear on the hydraulic
components.

JOYSTICK
The joystick control system has several different
components working together to give the operator control
over the hydraulic system. These components are: the
joystick, control valve, pilot oil supply valve (in the inlet
section of the control valve), control valve solenoids, seat
pad switch and the wiring harnesses.
BASIC METHOD OF OPERATION
Non-proportional solenoids - auxiliary and extension.
When the operator is sat on the seat, 12 volts are
supplied to the joystick via the seat pad switch. The
four buttons at the top of the joystick can now be
operated (two for auxiliary and two for extension).
Once one of the buttons is depressed, 12 volts are
supplied to one of the terminals on the solenoid (third
or fourth valve from the inlet section). This activates
two of the valves 3 and 2 (A fig. 6) inside the
solenoid to divert the pilot hydraulic oil to one end of
the spool pushing it against the neutral spring to
operate the function. When the other button is
depressed, 12 volts are supplied to the other terminal
operating valves 1 and 4 (A, fig. 6), diverting pilot
hydraulic oil to the other end of the spool pushing it
to operate the function in the opposite direction.
Proportional solenoids - lift and tilt. With the operator
sat on the seat 12 volts are supplied to the joystick
via the seat pad switch. While the joystick is in the
center position (hands free) there is no voltage to the
control valve solenoids. When the joystick is moved
slightly away from the center position, the neutral
switch is activated and voltage now passes to the
solenoids on the control valve (first and second
valves from the inlet section).
Firstly 12 volts are fed constantly to one terminal on
the solenoid and a variable signal voltage is sent to
the other terminal (remaining terminal is ground). With
the neutral switch operated and the joystick in the
neutral position (just away from the center position),
the variable potentiometer sends a signal of 6 volts to
the solenoid which opens valves 1 and 3 (B, fig. 6)
and closes valves 2 and 4. This feeds pilot hydraulic
oil to both ends of the spool hydraulically locking the
spool in neutral. As the joystick is moved to operate
a function, the signal voltage will vary from 6 volts to
a maximum of 9 volts or if the the joystick is moved
the opposite way the signal will vary from 6 volts to a
minimum of 3 volts. The signal voltage is monitored
by electronics inside the solenoid. The position of the
spool is monitored by the positional transducer pin
resting on the end of the spool. These signals are
compared and the internal valves of the solenoids (1,
2, 3 and 4, B fig. 6) are either opened or closed
allowing pilot oil to move the spool until the two
signals are equal.

CONTROL VALVE DISASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
Remove the three nuts (1) on the tie bolts holding the
contol valve assembly together (fig. 8). Put the
control unit on a firm surface on its end plate (2). Lift
off the valve slices individually taking note of which
order they are removed.
Remove the retaining screws (item 1, fig. 9) and lift
off the mechanical module (item 2, fig. 9). Remove
and discard the O-ring seals. Remove the solenoid
retaining screws (item 4, fig. 9) and the solenoid
(item 5, fig. 9), discard the O-ring seals. Slide out the
spool valve (item 3, fig. 9) and inspect it. Check that
the load sense line holes are clear and that there is
no damage to the surface of the spool. The spool is
not a serviceable item and must be replaced if there
is any damage to it. Inspect the valve body as this is
not a serviceable item and must be replaced if any
damage is found. Unscrew the function line relief
valve assemblies (items 6-9 and 10-13, fig. 9).
Items 15 and 16 in figure 9 are the load sense line
shuttle valves which are non serviceable items and
cannot be removed as they are located in the valve
body. If there is a fault with them, the valve body
must be replaced. To reassemble the control valve
slices, reverse the procedure described above and fit
all new O-ring seals.

TESTING THE INLET SECTION
A failure of the inlet section will be determined by
carrying out a full hydraulic test procedure as explained
in the hydraulic fault finding guide later in this section of
the manual. If the pressure relief valve is set low, this
may affect all hydraulic operations, but if the
compensation spool is partially or fully open, it will only
affect the control valve functions (both manual and
electrical operation). The servo pressure valve will only
affect the electrical operation of the control valve.

REPAIR
To remove the compensating spool from the inlet
section, undo the three retaining nuts holding the
control valve assembly together (fig. 7) and remove
the inlet section from the control valve. Screw an M6
bolt into the retaining plug on the end of the
compensating spool and remove the retaining plug.
N CAUTION: When removing the retaining
plug, the spring behind the spool will force
the spool out of the inlet section housing.
If the spool does not come out, then screw an M6
bolt into the end of the compensating spool and using
suitable extractor, remove the spool. Should there be
any sign of damage or wear on the compensating
spool or in the housing, then a new inlet section
should be fitted. To remove the servo pressure valve,
unscrew the filter plug. The filter will stay inside the
plug. The spool, servo cone and spring can then be
removed.
The servo filter can be extracted from the filter plug
once the plug has been removed from the inlet
section. The relief valve is set to 21000 kPa (210 bar;
3045 psi) on the 4400 and 24100 kPa (241 bar) on
the 4500 and is the main system relief valve for the
hydraulic system. When the relief valve opens, this
also operates the compensating spool allowing oil
flow to return to tank. Should the compensating spool
stick, no oil will flow around the control valve.
Setting the relief valve
1. Fit a 30000 kPa (300 bar; 4350 psi) pressure
gauge to the test port on the main control valve.
2. Run the machine, operate a function to full stroke
and note the pressure.
3. Remove the plastic plug covering the relief valve in
the inlet section.
4. Screw in the main relief valve on the control valve
until the reading on the test gauge is 21000 kPa; 210
bar (4400) or 24100 kPa; 241 bar (4500). If the
pressure does not continue to rise when adjusting the
relief valve, the compensating spool in the inlet
section may be prematurely stuck or partially stuck
open.

PRIORITY VALVE PRINCIPLES OFOPERATION
The reason for the fitment of the priority valve is to
enable the machine to have only one hydraulic oil pump
to supply all the functions, namely steering, brakes and
control valve hydraulics. The priority valve receives all oil
flow from the hydraulic pump and divides it depending
on which circuit requires oil, so if the steering or brakes
are being operated, these two circuits will receive oil
prior to the control valve circuit. If, however, the steering
and brakes are either not in use or have reached full
stroke of the cylinder, then oil flow is diverted to control
valve hydraulics, but steering and brakes will always take
the priority flow.

PN=172
TESTING THE PRIORITY VALVE
Brake circuit
Place the machine on firm level ground, shut the engine
off, discharge the braking circuit by operating the brake
pedal at least thirty times. Fit a pressure test gauge with
a range of 17000 kPa (170 bar; 2465 psi) in the brake
circuit close to the brake accumulator.
Start the engine and note the pressure in the brake
circuit which should be 15000 kPa (150 bar; 2175 psi)
when the brakes are charged, so it will take a few
seconds to reach this pressure. If this pressure is
correct, then operate the brake circuit until the brake
circuit starts to charge and note the pressure at which
the brakes start to charge. It should be 12000 kPa (120
bar; 1740 psi).
If either of the two brake charge pressures are incorrect,
then the brake charge valve may be faulty. Unscrew the
brake charge valve and inspect it. If the problem is
contamination, then remove and refit the valve. The
valve is a non-service item and therefore the priority
valve should be replaced if the fault is more than
contamination. Flow to the braking circuit from the
priority valve is 5 l/min (1.32 gal/min).

PN=173
STEERING CIRCUIT
Place the machine on firm level ground, shut off the
engine, fit a pressure gauge with a range of 20000 kPa
(200 bar; 2900 psi) into the steering circuit. Start the
machine, operate the steering unit until full lock is
reached, then try to turn the steering further. Note the
pressure which should be 17500 kPa (175 bar; 2537.5
psi). If the pressure is significantly lower, then the relief
valve in the steering orbitrol may need adjusting. The
relief valve in the priority valve is still fitted, but set to a
higher pressure than that of the orbitrol relief valve. If
having checked the orbitrol relief valve steering pressure
is still too low, then remove and inspect the steering
relief valve. Refit the valve. Start the machine and
operate the steering. Note the pressure and adjust the
steering relief valve until the correct setting has been
reached, then turn another 1/4 turn.
The hydraulic cylinders which are in the lift, tilt and
extension circuits all have safety lock valves built into
them to prevent the circuit from dropping rapidly in the
event of a hose failure. The testing of these lock valves
must be carried out to ensure the fault is with the
cylinder.

SAFETY LOCK VALVE TEST PROCEDURE
Lift function - operate the lift function until it has
completed approximately 50 % of its travel. Shut off the
engine and note the rate of drop of the boom. Operate
the slice manually. If the rate of drop increases, the fault
is within the safety lock valve; in this case replace the
valve. If the rate of drop remains constant, the fault is
either in the safety lock valve seals or the cylinder seals.
Tilt function - operate the tilt function until it has
completed approximately 50 % of its travel, shut off the
engine and note the rate of drop of the attachment.
Operate the slice manually. If the rate of drop increases,
the fault is within the safety lock valve; in this case
replace the valve. If the rate of drop remains constant,
the fault is either in the safety lock valve seals or the
cylinder seals.
Extension function - operate the lift function until it has
completed approximately 90 % of its travel. Also operate
the extension function until it has completed
approximately 50 % of its travel. Shut off the engine and
note the rate of retraction of the inner boom. Operate the
slice manually. If the rate of retraction increases, the
fault is within the safety lock valve. In this case replace
the valve. If the rate of retraction remains constant, the
fault is either in safety lock valve seals or in the cylinder
seals.

CAB REMOVAL
The cab does not require removal from the machine
unless it needs to be replaced. To remove the cab,
place the machine on firm level ground and fit wheel
chocks under all wheels. Shut off the engine.
Disconnect the negative terminal on the battery.
Disconnect the positive terminal on the battery.
Release all hydraulic pressure in the braking circuit
by operating the brake pedal at least thirty times.
Place a drain tin underneath the cab. Remove the
hoses to the brake pedal valve. Remove the lower
steering column cover from inside the cab. Remove
the steering hoses from the distribution block inside
the cab. Mark each hose to ensure correct
reassembly. Remove the under cab cover by
removing the four retaining screws. Remove the
chassis-to-cab wiring harness connectors underneath
the cab. Remove the cover at the lower front right
hand side of the cab interior covering the wiring
harnesses. Disconnect the cab harnesses inside the
cab and feed them through the opening in the base
of the cab.
Disconnect and remove the wiring harness to the
head/clearance lights. Remove the throttle cable at
the pedal end and remove the cable clamp. Remove
the cable away from the cab underside. Remove the
handbrake cable from the operating lever. Drain the
water from the engine radiator. Remove the cab
heater hoses. Screw in the two lifting eyes as shown
in figure 1. Remove the four cab mounting bolts.
Carefully lift the cab ensuring that none of the cables
or hoses catch on the chassis. To refit the cab,
reverse the removal procedure. Torque the retaining
bolts to 290 N´m (213.7 lb-ft).

DISASSEMBLY OF CAB HEATER
The cab heater is located underneath the operator's
seat within the cab. The heater controls are located
at the lower right hand side of the heater face cover
and the fan control switch is within the switch panel.
The cab heater system has an air filter which should
be cleaned regularly. If the machine is being used in
very dusty conditions, daily cleaning may be required.
Access to the heater unit is from underneath the
seat. Remove the four seat retaining bolts and lift out
the seat. Remove the seat pan cover plate. The
heater unit can now be removed by unscrewing the
three retaining bolts and lifting the unit out.

DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY OF CAB SEAT
Removal of the seat can be achieved by removing
the four bolts retaining the seat to the seat pan. Also
disconnect the wiring harness from the joystick pod to
the rear of the cab. Lift out the seat taking care as
the weight of the seat can make it very awkward to
lift the seat out of the cab.
Repair of the seat
Remove the seat by unscrewing the four retaining
bolts around the seat. Also unplug the joystick wiring
harness and the seat pad safety switch harness.
Remove the clips retaining the rubber boot around
the seat base. Release all the tension on the
suspension springs by unscrewing the adjuster screw.
This will allow the suspension springs to be hooked
off their retaining pins. The shock absorber is
retained in its position by means of two pins and also
two clips on each pin. Remove the clips and extract
the pins.
The seat is fitted with a seat pad safety switch
situated underneath the cushion. It is activated once
the operator is seated. This prevents operation of the
hydraulic system without the operator sitting safely in
the cab. To remove the seat pad switch, unscrew the
two screws on the front face of the seat which retain
the cushion to the seat frame. Lift off the cushion and
remove the cover. Access to the switch is then
possible. To reassemble the seat, reverse the
disassembly procedure.

BATTERY OPERATION
A battery is a device for converting chemical energy
to electrical energy. It is not a storage tank for
electricity, but stores electrical energy in chemical
form.
Because of the constant chemical to electrical change
(self-discharge, discharge, or charge), the battery has
a limited life. Proper care (cleaning, charging) will
extend the life of the battery.
The battery is made up of positive plates, negative
plates, separators, plate straps, and chemical solution
(electrolyte). The electrolyte is a solution of sulfuric
acid and water. Sulfuric acid is not lost during
overcharging.
In a fully charged battery, the positive plate is lead
peroxide (PBQ2), the negative plate is ªspongyº lead
(Pb), and the electrolyte solution is about 1.270 times
heavier than water. The amount that the solution is
heavier than water is called specific gravity.
All batteries will self discharge at a rate of 0.001
specific gravity point per 24 hour period at a constant
30ÊC (85ÊF). The discharge rate increases as
temperature increases and decreases as temperature
decreases. If the machine is not used for a period of
time, the batteries must be stored fully charged in a
cool place.
Wipe batteries with a damp cloth. If terminals are
corroded, use a stiff brush and wash with an
ammonia solution. After washing, flush battery and
compartment with clear water.
Batteries should be maintained at an open circuit
voltage of 12.4 volts or greater. To determine open
circuit voltage use the following chart.

and electrolyte leakage.
If damage is seen, replace battery.
b. Check terminals for corrosion. If corroded, clean
using a wire brush or battery post cleaner.
c. Check terminals for looseness.
If terminals are loose, replace battery.
2. LOAD TEST
a. Check battery capacity with a load tester such as
JT05832 Battery Load Tester. Follow tester
manufacturer's instructions for proper load test
procedures.

ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT MALFUNCTIONS
1ÐFuse 2ÐLoad
The four possible circuit malfunctions are:
1. High resistance circuit
2. Open circuit
3. Grounded circuit
4. Shorted circuit
There are only three ªareasº in a simple electrical
circuit where circuit malfunction can occur (see simple
circuit above).
1. Before the controlling switch (A)
2. After the controlling switch but before the load (B)
3. After the load (C)
Component malfunctions can easily be confused with
circuit malfunctions. Caution must therefore be
exercised when isolating the cause of the problem.
Example: A component may not operate before an
electrical connection is disconnected, but it operates
when the connector is reconnected.
Reason: High resistance in the circuit created a
voltage drop at the connector terminals, preventing
the proper amount of current from flowing to the
component.

OPEN CIRCUIT
AÐVoltage Source CÐComponent Terminal EÐOpen Circuit GÐLoad
BÐControlling Switch DÐHigh Resistance Circuit FÐComponent Terminal HÐGround
A high resistance circuit can result in slow, dim or no
component operation (i.e. loose, corroded, dirty or
oily terminals, gauge of wire too small or broken
strands in cable).
An open circuit results in no component operation, as
the circuit is incomplete (E) (i.e. broken wire,
terminals disconnected, open protection device or
switch).
Test for a high resistance circuit (D) or an open
circuit (E) as follows:
1. With controlling switch (B) closed and load (G)
connected, check for proper voltage at an easily
accessible location between (C) and (F).
a. If voltage is low, move toward voltage source (A)
to locate point of voltage drop.
b. If voltage is correct, move toward load (G) and
ground terminal (H) to locate point of voltage drop.
2. Repair circuit as required.
3. Repeat operational check after completing the
repair.

A grounded circuit results in no component operation
and the fuse will blow (i.e. power wire to ground).
Test for a grounded circuit (E) as follows:
1. Controlling switch (C) open, fuse not blown.
a. If there is continuity, there is a grounded circuit
between (B) and (C).
b. No continuity, go to 2.
2. Disconnect load (G) at (F).
3. With controlling switch (C) open, check for
continuity to ground between (D) and (H).
If there is continuity, there is a grounded circuit
between (D) and (H).
4. Repair circuit as required.
5. Repeat operational check after completing the
repair.

BÐCircuit Connector EÐLoad-type Component GÐSwitch IÐShorted Circuit
CÐCircuit Connector
A shorted circuit usually results in two components
operating when one of the switches is closed
(i.e. improper wire-to-wire contact).
Test for a shorted (I) or improperly wired circuit as
follows:
1. Turn on switch (G) for correct component (F) to
operate.
2. Start at controlling switch (H) of component (E)
which should not be operating and disconnect wire at
terminal (A).
3. Follow circuit and disconnect wire at connectors
(B, C or D) until component ceases to operate.
4. The shorted circuit or improper connection will be
between the last two locations at which the wire was
disconnected. In the example above, between (B) and
(C).
5. Repair circuit:
a. Wires not in a loom: Wrap individual wires with
electrical tape and band as required.
b. Wires in a loom: If hot spots exist in the shorted
area of harness, replace harness. If hot spots are not
noticeable, install a new wire of proper gauge
between last two connections. Tape wire to outside of
harness.
6. Repeat operational check after completing the
repair.
