Hydraulic Systems Service Manual

ABOUT THIS MANUAL

This service manual was written expressly for Toro Wheel Horse 5xi series garden tractors. The Toro Company has made every effort to make the information in this manual complete and correct.

This service and repair manual has been compiled to provide authorized Wheel Horse service personnel with the proper procedures and techniques for servicing the Wheel Horse automatic transaxle with Eaton Model 11 hydrostatic transmission. Basic mechanical/electrical skills are assumed. The Table of Contents lists the systems and the related topics covered in this manual.

It is advisable to read all the introductory sections first to gain a proper understanding of the Wheel Horse automatic transmission system.

For information on the electrical system, please refer to the Toro Electrical Demystification Guide (492-4404). For general service procedures, refer to the 5xi Series Tractor Service Manual (492-4715). For information specific to the engines used on these garden tractors, refer to the appropriate engine manufacturer’s service and repair instructions.

We are hopeful that you will find this manual a valuable addition to your service shop. If you have any questions or comments regarding this manual, please contact us at the following address:

Bloomington, MN 55420

The Toro Company reserves the right to change product specifications or this manual without notice.

The automatic transmission and transaxle are sophisticated pieces of machinery. Maintain strict cleanliness control during all stages of service and repair. Cover or cap all hose ends and fittings whenever they are exposed. Even a small amount of dirt or other contamination can severely damage the system.

NOTE: This manual uses the terms “transmission, hydrostatic transmission, and hydrostatic unit” to refer to the Eaton Model 11 Hydrostatic Transmission. The term “transaxle” is used to refer to the assembly of intermediate gears, differential and case halves, less hydrostatic unit. “Transmission System” and “Automatic Transmission System” are used to refer to entire drive train as an assembly, including engine, transmission, transaxle, hydraulic lift system, and all related parts.

THINK SAFETY FIRST

Avoid unexpected starting of engine...

Always turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire(s) before cleaning, adjusting, or repair.

Avoid lacerations and amputations...

Stay clear of all moving parts whenever the engine is running. Treat all normally moving parts as if they were moving whenever the engine is running or has the potential to start.

Avoid burns...

Do not touch the engine, muffler, or other components which may increase in temperature during operation, while the unit is running or shortly after it has been running.

Avoid fires and explosions...

Avoid spilling fuel and never smoke while working with any type of fuel or lubricant. Wipe up any spilled fuel or oil immediately. Never remove the fuel cap or add fuel when the engine is running. Always use approved, labeled containers for storing or transporting fuel and lubricants.

Avoid asphyxiation...

Never operate an engine in a confined area without proper ventilation.

Avoid injury from batteries...

Battery acid is poisonous and can cause burns. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Battery gases can explode. Keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames away from the battery.

Avoid injury due to inferior parts...

Use only original equipment parts to ensure that important safety criteria are met.

Avoid injury to bystanders...

Always clear the area of bystanders before starting or testing powered equipment.

Avoid injury due to projectiles...

Always clear the area of sticks, rocks, or any other debris that could be picked up and thrown by the powered equipment.

Avoid modifications...

Never alter or modify any part unless it is a factory approved procedure.

Avoid unsafe operation...

Always test the safety interlock system after making adjustments or repairs on the machine. Refer to the Electrical section in the 5xi Service Manual for more information.

TRANSAXLE FLUID

General Information

All models of the 5xi series tractor use the Toro Wheel Horse transaxle with the Eaton model 11 hydrostatic transmission. The transmission is equipped with a charge pump which supplies hydraulic pressure to operate the attachment lift and power steering on units so equipped. The charge pump also provides pressurized fluid to the transmission pump to make up for normal internal leakage.

FLUID TYPE: SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 detergent oil (API service SH or higher).

Eaton Model: 1100 - 063.

0144-029

The transmission is stamped with a model number, manufacturing date code, and direction of rotation. Rebuilt units are also marked with the number 1. This information is located on the case near the control shaft.

4.Remove the dipstick. If necessary, add oil to the FULL line on the dipstick.

IMPORTANT: Do not fill the reservoir above the FULL line as the reservoir may overflow after the tractor is stopped and has set for awhile.

0109-007

Fluid Change

The transaxle fluid should be changed every 200 hours of operation.

Remove the drain plug and drain the transaxle fluid into a suitable container.

Replace the drain plug, and fill the transaxle to the FULL mark with 10W-30 or 10W-40 detergent oil with an API service rating of SH or higher.

MAINTENANCE

Filter Change

The transaxle is equipped with a 10 micron spinon oil filter. This filter should be changed after the first 50 hours of operation and then every 200 hours thereafter.

1c

When replacing the filter, coat the gasket with oil. Tighten until the gasket contacts the base, then an additional 1/2 turn.

BRAKE

General Information

The 5xi series tractor is equipped with an external band parking brake which is located on the right side of the transaxle.

When the brake pedal is pressed, the linkage returns the transmission to neutral, then applies the brake.

The band brake supplements the transmission’s dynamic braking to bring the tractor to a stop. It can also be locked in the applied position and serves as the parking brake.

5xi Series Tractor Hydraulic Service Manual

MAINTENANCE

Adjustment

1.Place the transmission in neutral.

2.Depress the brake pedal. There should be 2” (51mm) of free travel before resistance is felt.

1c

3.Turn the adjustment nut until the above condition is met.

CAUTION: Do not overtighten the adjustment nut.

0109-010

NEUTRAL ADJUSTMENT

General Information

The hydrostatic transmission linkage is designed to be self-centering or “return to neutral”. If the wheels continue to drive with no pressure on the control pedal (tractor creeps), neutral adjustment is required.

CAUTION: The drive shaft and hydrostatic cooling fan will be spinning. Use extreme caution to avoid making contact with

moving parts while performing this adjustment.

Adjustment Procedure

1.Place the rear axle on jack stands, and remove the rear wheels.

NOTE: Do not set the parking brake.

2.Bring the hydrostatic transmission up to operating temperature (at least 15 minutes’ operation). The neutral eccentric is accessed through the hole indicated by the

arrow.

1c

 

3.To gain access to the adjustment eccentric, turn the front wheels in either direction to the steering stop. This causes the linkage rod to move up, out of the way.

4.Loosen the through bolt just enough to allow rotation of the eccentric (A).

POWER STEERING

General Information

The 22 HP, 20 HP liquid-cooled and 23 HP diesel tractors are equipped with power steering.

This system routes pressurized transaxle fluid supplied by the hydrostatic transmission to a directional valve located at the base of the steering column. When the steering wheel is turned, this valve directs pressure to a double acting hydraulic cylinder, causing the steering plate to pivot as the cylinder extends or contracts. Tie rods attached to the steering plate turn the front spindles.

NOTE: A noisy or sluggish hydraulic system could be caused by a dirty power steering filter.

MAINTENANCE

When the tractor is not running, some oil will drain from the power steering system. On engine start-up, purge air from the system by turning the steering wheel fully left and right, at full engine rpm, until full steering performance is restored.

1c

Maintenance

The power steering system is equipped with an in-line filter screen. It should be cleaned after the initial 50 hours, then every 200 hours, or if the power steering gets noisy.

To clean the power steering screen:

1.Remove the left and center air intake screens.

2.Remove the screen housing from the clamp securing it to the left-hand side of the steering tower.

3.Remove the top hose first to prevent oil from back-flushing the screen.

4.Remove the hydraulic lines and seal the ends to keep out dirt.

5.Disassemble the housing and clean the screen and housing with solvent.

THEORY OF OPERATION

Transmission Operation

Transmission input shaft is driven at engine speed by drive shaft. Both charge pump and transmission pump are driven by input shaft. Charge pump draws oil from transaxle to “supercharge” transmission pump, make up for normal internal leakage, and provide a cooling oil flow. Oil travels from the outlet of the charge pump through a hydraulic hose to the power steering valve (on units equipped with power steering). Then oil flows through the open-center hydraulic lift valve and out to the oil filter adapter through another hose. After filtering, oil passes through a metal line and into the transmission.

NOTE: Lift valve noise is normal on manual steering units.

2 Pump section of transmission controls volume and direction of oil flow to motor section depending on position of motion control linkage. As the motion control lever is moved away from neutral position, the cam ring increases the displacement of the pump and the flow of oil is increased to the motor making it go faster. The motor output shaft drives the tractor axles through two reduction gears and a differential assembly. Torque is generated in direct response to load; higher pump pressure (torque) is generated as resistance to movement increases.

(A) Maximum Flow

(B) Minimum Flow

For optimum performance engine should be operated at full throttle, and never less than 3/4 throttle. Under high load conditions tractor should be slowed using traction pedal, which will increase output torque. This is due to lower friction and pumping losses at slower transmission output speeds, and can be compared to the effect of shifting a manual transmission to a lower gear.

5xi Series Tractor Hydraulic Service Manual

THEORY OF OPERATION

The power steering and hydraulic lift circuit are also operated by the charge pump. When the lift control valve is moved to Raise or Lower position, the charge pump output is diverted to one of the hoses attached to the lift cylinder. The other hose is connected through the lift valve to charge pressure hose leading to the oil filter, permitting bleed-off of oil on that side of lift cylinder’s piston. Implement relief valve located in control valve (manual steering) or power steering valve regulates lift system pressure at 700-800 PSI (48.2 - 55.2 bar). When this valve opens, excess oil is bled off into the charge pressure hose leading to the oil filter.

NOTE: Lift valve noise is normal on manual steering units.

THEORY OF OPERATION

Flow diagrams show hydraulic circuits inside hydrostatic unit and illustrate high and low pressure areas during operation.

Pressurized oil from the charge pump is maintained between 30 and 90 PSI (2.1 - 6.2 bar) by the charge relief valve located inside the hydrostatic unit. When the valve opens, excess oil pressure is bled back to the transaxle sump through a hole in the housing.

The charge pump oil enters the transmission pump section, which is turning at engine speed, and “supercharges” it.

THEORY OF OPERATION

The operator controls the transmission by moving the control shaft connected to the cam ring within the pump. With the control shaft in neutral, or its centered position, no flow is generated by the pump and, therefore, the motor portion is at rest.

When the control shaft is moved from neutral in the “forward” direction, the cam ring in the pump is moved off center and the pump ball-pistons create a flow of fluid. The position of the control shaft/cam ring is infinitely variable and any flow rate is possible up to maximum cam ring movement/maximum pump displacement.

Flow created by pump moves to fixed

displacement motor through internal

 

 

passageways. Because the motor is a fixed

 

displacement unit, the motor requires a specific

 

volume of fluid for it to make one complete

 

revolution.

(C) High Pressure

 

(B) Motor

When the control shaft is moved from neutral to “reverse” direction, the cam ring is swung off center to the opposite side of the pump and the flow from the pump is “reversed”. This flow is directed to the other side of the motor causing its output shaft to rotate in the opposite direction. The pump input shaft always rotates in one direction, dictated by the engine, while the motor output shaft rotates in either direction, depending on the direction of flow from the pump.

Pump discharge flow is high pressure (dictated by load) fluid. Flow returned from the motor to the pump is low (or charge) pressure fluid.

THEORY OF OPERATION

Due to internal leakage, fluid being returned to the inlet side of the pump from the exhaust side of the motor is less than required by the pump. To replace this needed fluid, check valves are located in each side of closed loop. The check valve located on the low pressure side of the pump will open allowing fluid to enter loop, from the charge pump circuit, to make up leakage losses.
