Service Manual
LDU20/24 Closed Circuit Axial Piston Transmission
This manual includes information on the installation, maintenance, and minor repair of LDU20/24 transmission (HST). It includes a description of the unit and its individual components, troubleshooting information, and minor repair procedures.
Performing minor repairs may require removal from the vehicle/machine. Thoroughly clean the unit before beginning maintenance or repair activities. Since dirt and contamination are the greatest enemies of any type of hydraulic equipment, follow cleanliness requirements strictly. This is especially important when changing the system filter and when removing hoses or plumbing.
A worldwide network of Danfoss Authorized Service Centers is available for major repairs. Danfoss trains and certifies Authorized Service Centers on a regular basis. You can locate your nearest Authorized Service Center using the distributor locator at www.sauer-danfoss.com.
Performing installation, maintenance, and minor repairs according to the procedures in this manual will not affect your warranty. Major repairs requiring the removal of the units center section voids the warranty unless completed by a Danfoss Global Service Partner.
Follow these general procedures.
Prior to performing major repairs, remove the unit from the vehicle/machine. Chock the wheels on the vehicle or lock the mechanism to inhibit movement. Be aware that hydraulic fluid may be under high pressure and/or hot. Inspect the outside of the HST and fittings for damage. Cap hoses and plug ports after removal to prevent contamination.
Cleanliness is a primary means of assuring satisfactory HST life, on either new or repaired units. Clean the outside of the HST thoroughly before disassembly. Take care to avoid contamination of the system ports. Cleaning parts using a clean solvent wash and air drying is usually adequate.
As with any precision equipment, keep all parts free of foreign materials and chemicals. Protect all exposed sealing surfaces and open cavities from damage and foreign material. If left unattended, cover the transmission with a protective layer of plastic.
During assembly, coat all moving parts with clean hydraulic fluid. This assures that these parts are lubricated during start-up.
Danfoss recommends you replace all O-rings, seals, and gaskets during repair.Lightly lubricate all O-rings with clean petroleum jelly prior to assembly. Grease must be soluable in hydraulic fluid.

Service Manual
LDU20/24 Closed Circuit Axial Piston Transmission
Introduction
For major repair, place the unit in a stable position with the shaft pointing downward. It is necessary to secure the transmission while removing and torquing components and fasteners.
Always consider safety precautions before beginning a service procedure. Protect yourself and others from injury. Take the following general precautions whenever servicing a hydraulic system.
W Warning
Unintended movement of the machine or mechanism may cause injury to the technician or bystanders. To protect against unintended movement, secure the machine or disable/disconnect the mechanism while servicing.
W Warning
Some cleaning solvents are flammable. To avoid possible fire, do not use cleaning solvents in an area where a source of ignition may be present.
W Warning
Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate your skin causing serious injury and/or infection. This fluid may also be hot enough to cause burns. Use caution when dealing with hydraulic fluid under pressure. Relieve pressure in the system before removing hoses, fittings, gauges, or components. Never use your hand or any other body part to check for leaks in a pressurized line. Seek medical attention immediately if you are cut by hydraulic fluid.
W Warning
Protect yourself from injury. Use proper safety equipment, including safety glasses, at all times.
W Warning
Hydraulic fluid contains hazardous material. Avoid prolonged contact with hydraulic fluid. Always dispose of used hydraulic fluid according to environmental regulations.
