Some service operations may require
special tools or equipment. If you require
information on these items, please contact
Oilgear before attempting these repairs
and service operations.
WARNING
!
Read, understand, and follow the safety
guidelines, dangers, and warnings
contained in this instruction sheet to
promote reliable operation and prevent
serious personal injury.
WARNING
!
DO NOT attempt to service this machinery
in an environment where safety regulations
are not established and in place.
WARNING
!
DO NOT operate the hydraulic system if a
leak is present. Serious injury may result.
WARNING
!
Hydraulic systems operate under very high
pressure. Hydraulic fluid escaping from a
pressurized system can penetrate
unprotected body tissue. DO NOT inspect
for hydraulic leaks with bare hands or other
exposed body parts. As a minimum, wear
leather gloves prior to inspecting for leaks
and use cardboard or wood. If leaks are
present, relieve pressure and allow system
to cool prior to servicing. If injured by
escaping hydraulic oil, contact a physician
immediately. Serious complications may
arise if not treated immediately. If you have
questions regarding inspecting for
hydraulic leaks, please contact Oilgear
prior to servicing.
Hydraulic hoses and tubing must be
inspected on a daily basis for leaks, cuts,
abrasions, damage and improper
clearance along any mounting frame for
hidden damage before the unit is put into
service. Replace damaged hoses or hoses
you suspect are damaged before the
system is returned to service! Hoses must
be replaced every two years. Failure to
properly inspect and maintain the system
may result in serious injury.
WARNING
!
Hydraulic systems are hot. DO NOT
TOUCH! Serious personal injury may
result from hot oil. When you have
completed working on the hydraulic
system, thoroughly clean any spilled oil
from the equipment. Do not spill any
hydraulic fluids on the ground. Clean any
hydraulic fluids from your skin as soon as
you have completed maintenance and
repairs. Dispose of used oil and system
filters as required by law.
WARNING
!
Hydraulic cylinders can be holding a
function in a certain position when the
pump is OFF. An example of this is a
function being held in the lift or partial lift
position by the cylinders. If a hydraulic
line is removed or the hydraulic circuits or
controls are being worked on, gravity may
allow the function being held in position to
drop. All workers and personnel must
remain clear of these areas when working
on or operating the hydraulic system.
Block and secure all devices and
functions which apply before beginning
work or operation. Failure to comply with
this can result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
!
Any hydraulic pipe which is replaced must
conform to SAE J1065 specifications. If
incorrect hydraulic pipe is installed, the
hydraulic system may fail, causing
serious injury. Damaged or leaking
fittings, pipes or hoses must be replaced
before the system is returned to service.
WARNING
!
Use correct hoses, fittings, and adapters
with the correct SAE rating when
replacing hoses to prevent possible
serious injury. Always replace hoses,
fittings, and adapters with replacements
that have a proper, suitable, working
pressure rating. Replacement hoses must
be of the correct length and must comply
with the hose manufacturer’s and
Oilgear’s installation guidelines and
recommendations.
WARNING
!
Hydraulic hoses have the SAE ratings
marked on the hose to assist you in
selecting the correct hose. The same
manufacturer must supply any replacement
hydraulic hoses and fitting assemblies. As
an example: Brand “X” hose and brand “Y”
fitting will not normally be compatible. No
“Twist” is allowed in the hydraulic hoses.
“Twist” may result in premature hose
failure. This can cause serious injury.
Please contact Oilgear for assistance when
required.
WARNING
!
DO NOT heat hydraulic pipe. The carbon
content of this steel tube is such that if
heated for bending, and either water or air
quenched, the pipe may lose its ductility
and thereby be subject to failure under
high pressure conditions. Serious injury
can result. Damaged or leaking pipes must
be replaced before the system is returned
to service. Please contact Oilgear if you
require assistance or have questions.
WARNING
!
All hydraulic pressure must be relieved
from the hydraulic system prior to removing
any components from the system. To
relieve the hydraulic pressure from the
hydraulic system, turn off the motor and
operate the control panel with the key in the
ON position. Failure to comply can result in
serious injury. If you have any questions
concerning relieving the hydraulic pressure
from the system, please contact Oilgear.

Service Instructions
PREPARATION AND
INSTALLATION
MOUNTING
Pump Without Reservoir - The pump can be
mounted in any position. But, the recommended
mounting position is with the drive shaft on a
horizontal plane and the case drain port 1 on the
top side. Secure the pump to a rigid mounting
surface. Refer to the referenced Oilgear Piping
Information Bulletin 90011.
Pump With Reservoir - These pumps are usually
fully piped and equipped. It may be necessary to
connect to a super-charge circuit when used.
Mount reservoir on level foundation with the
reservoir bottom at least six inches above floor
level to facilitate fluid changes.
PIPING AND FITTINGS
Refer to the referenced Oilgear Piping Information
Bulletin 90011 and individual circuit diagram before
connecting the pump to the system. Inlet velocity
must not exceed 5 fps (1,5 mps). Inlet should be
unrestricted and have a minimum of fittings.
NOTE
Arrange line from “case drain” so the case remains
full of fluid (non-siphoning). Case pressure must be
less than 25 psi (1,7 bar). For higher case
pressures, special shaft seals are required; contact
our Customer Service. Each drain line must be a
separate line, unrestricted, full sized and
connected directly to the reservoir below the lowest
fluid level. Make provisions for opening this line
without draining (siphoning) reservoir.
DO NOT use an inlet strainer.
WARNING
!
Running the pump in NEUTRAL position
(zero delivery) for extended periods
without a supercharge circuit can damage
the pump. The system and pump must be
protected against overloads by separate
high pressure relief valves. Install bleed
valve(s) at the highest point(s) in system.
POWER
Power is required in proportion to volume and
pressure used. Motor size recommendations for
specific applications can be obtained from The
Oilgear Company. Standard low starting torque
motors are suitable for most applications.
CAUTION
DO NOT start or stop unit under load
unless system is approved by Oilgear. It
may be necessary to provide delivery
bypass in some circuits.
DRIVE
Verify rotation direction plate on the pump's housing.
Clockwise pumps must be driven clockwise and
counterclockwise pumps must be driven
counterclockwise. Use direct drive coupling. Size
and install coupling per manufacturer's instructions.
CAUTION
DO NOT drive the coupling onto the pump
drive shaft. If it is too tight, it may be
necessary to heat coupling for installation.
Refer to manufacturer's instructions.
Misalignment of pump shaft to driver's shaft should
not exceed 0.005 inches (0,13 mm) Total Indicator
Readout (TIR) in any plane.
Bulletin 947023THE OILGEAR COMPANY5
FILTRATION
Keep the fluid clean at all times to ensure long life
from your hydraulic system. Refer to the referenced
Oilgear Filtration Recommendations bulletin 90007
and Oilgear Contamination Evaluation Guide
Bulletin 90004. Oilgear recommends use of a filter
in the pressure or return line. Replace filter
element(s) when the filter condition indicator
reaches change area at normal fluid temperature.
Drain and thoroughly clean filter case. Use
replacement element(s) of same beta 10 ratio
(normally a ratio of 4 with hydraulic oils).
FLUID COOLING
When the pump is operated continuously at the
rated pressure or frequently at peak load, auxiliary
cooling of the fluid may be necessary. Fluid
temperature should not exceed limits specified in
the referenced Oilgear Fluid Recommendations
Bulletin 90000.
With pump under “no load” or with pump control at
NEUTRAL:
4. Turn drive unit ON and OFF several times
before allowing pump to reach full speed. The
system can usually be filled by running the
pump and operating the control.
5. The fluid level in the reservoir should decrease.
Stop the pump. DO NOT allow the fluid level to
go beyond the “low level.” If the level reaches
“low level” mark, add fluid and repeat step.
NOTE
With differential (cylinder) systems, the fluid
must not be above “high level” when the
ram is retracted or below “low level” when
extended. Bleed air from the system by
loosening connections or opening petcocks
at the highest point in the system. Close
connections or petcocks tightly when solid
stream of fluid appears.
CONSTRUCTION
AIR BREATHER
On most installations, an air breather is mounted
on top of fluid reservoir. It is important for the
breather to be the adequate size to allow air flow in
and out of reservoir as fluid level changes. Keep
the breather case filled to the “fluid level” mark.
About once every six months, remove cover, wash
screen in solvent and allow screen to dry, clean
and refill case to level mark and install screen.
Refer to the manufacturer's recommendations.
FLUID, FILLING AND STARTING
RECOMMENDATIONS
Refer to instruction plate on the unit, reservoir,
machine and/or reference Fluid Recommendations
bulletin. Fire-resistant fluids and phosphate ester
fluids can be used in accordance with fluid
manufacturer's recommendations.
1. Pump all fluid into reservoir through a clean
(beta 10 ratio of 4 or more) filter. Fill reservoir
to, but not above, “high level” mark on the sight
gauge.
2. Remove case drain line and fill pump case
with hydraulic fluid.
3. Turn drive shaft a few times by hand with a
spanner wrench to make sure parts rotate.
Torque to turn drive shaft should be 9 to 24 ft•lb
(12 to 32 N•m).
See Figure 3.
1. A drive shaft (301) runs through the center line
of pump housing (001) and valve plate (401)
with the pump cylinder barrel (101) splined to it.
2. A bearing (306) supports the outboard end of
the drive shaft and a bushing supports the
inboard end. (The bushing is part of valve plate
assembly.)
3. The pump cylinder barrel is carried in a
polymerous (journal type) cylinder bearing
(202).
4. The valve plate (401) has two crescent shaped
ports.
5. The pumping piston/shoe assemblies (102) in
the cylinder barrel are held against a
swashblock (201) by a shoe retainer (104).
6. The shoe retainer is held in position by the
fulcrum ball (103) which is forced outward by
the shoe retainer spring (105).
7. The spring acts against the pump cylinder
barrel, forcing it against the valve plate while
also forcing the piston shoes against the
swashblock.
8. The semi-cylindrical shaped swashblock limits
the piston stroke and can be swiveled in arcshaped saddle bearings (204).
9. The swashblock is swiveled by a control
(included in referenced material). Refer to
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The illustrations show the pump driven clockwise
(right hand) from the top (plan) view.
Position B, Pump During Full Delivery from
PORT B - Figure 3
Rotating the drive shaft (301) clockwise turns the
splined cylinder, which contains the pumping
pistons (102). When the cylinder rotates, the
pistons move in and out within their bores as the
shoes ride against the angled (C) swashblock
(201).
As the cylinder rotates, the individual piston bores
are connected, alternately, to the crescent-shaped
upper (port A) and lower (port B) in the valve plate.
While connected to the upper side (suction) port A,
each piston moves outward (OUT), drawing fluid
from port A into the piston bore until its outermost
stroke (D) is reached. At this point, the piston bore
passes from the upper crescent port A to the lower
crescent port B.
OILG0363
Figure 2. Cut-a-way of a Typical “PVG”
Pump
001
306
While rotating across the lower crescent, each
piston moves across the angled swashblock face
and then each piston is forced inward (IN). Each
piston then displaces fluid through the lower
crescent to port B until its innermost stroke (D) is
reached. At this point, the piston bore passes from
the lower to the upper crescent again and the cycle
is repeated.

Position N, Pump in Neutral, No Stroke, No
Delivery - Figure 5
This illustration shows that the angle (E) of the
swashblock determines the length of the piston
stroke (F), (the difference between outermost and
innermost position) which determines the amount
of delivery from the pump. In this case, the stroke
angle (E) is one-half of the stroke, which means the
piston stroke is one-half and the pump delivery is
one-half.
IN
OUT
Neutral position results when the control centers
the swashblock. The swashblock angle (G) is now
zero and swashblock face is parallel to the cylinder
face. There is no inward or outward motion of the
pump pistons as piston shoes rotate around the
swashblock face. With no inward and outward
motion or no stroke (H) NEUTRAL, no fluid is being
displaced from the piston bores to the crescents in
the valve plate and there is no delivery from pump
ports.
