27. Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks or
nozzles that eject water or hydraulic fluid under high
pressure. Use paper or cardboard, not hands, to search
for leaks. Hydraulic fluid or water escaping under pres
sure can have sufficient force to penetrate skin and do
serious damage. If either of these fluids are ejected into
the skin they must be surgically removed within a few
hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gan
grene may result.
28. Before disconnecting or performing any work on the
hydraulic oil system, all pressure in system must be re
lieved by stopping engine and opening by–pass valve.

9. Mount the engine in an engine rebuilding stand or put
it on a sturdy workbench. Before disassembling the
engine, remove external accessories, such as the muf fler guard (Item 11), muffler (Item 7), hydraulic pump
clutch, hydraulic pump pulle y, water pump clutch and
clutch key (see Drive Coupling Re moval and Installation
in Water System Service).
10. To install the engine, perform steps 2 - 9 in reverse
order. Make sure the ground cable (Item 36) is connected to the frame with an engine mounting nut.
11. Replace the oil filter and fill the engine with the
correct oil.
Hydraulic hoses are sub ject to extreme co nditions suc h
as, pressure differentials during operation and exposure
to weather, sun, chemicals, very warm storage conditions or mishandling during operation or maintena nce.
These conditions can cause damage or premat ure deterioration. Some hoses, such as reel motor h oses, ar e
more susceptible to these conditions than others. Inspect the hoses frequently for signs of deterioratio n or
damage.
When replacing a hydraulic hose, be sure that the hose
is straight (not twisted) b efore tightening the fittings. Th is
can be done by observi ng the imprint on th e hose. Use
two wrenches; one to hold the hose straight and one to
tighten the hose swivel nut onto the fitting.
CAUTION
Before disconnecting or performing any work
on the hydraulic system, all pressure in the
system must be relieved by stopping the engine and opening the bypass valve.
Keep body and hands away from pin hole
leaks or nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Use paper or cardboard,
not hands, to search for leaks. Hydraulic fluid
escaping under pressure can have sufficient
force to penetrate the skin and do serious
damage. If fluid is injected into the skin, it
must be surgically removed within a few
hours by a doctor familiar with this type of
injury or gangrene may result.

Testing
The most effective method for i solati ng pro blems in the
hydraulic system is by using hydraulic te st equipment
such as pressure gauges an d flow meters i n the circuits
during various operational checks. (See the Special
Tools section in this Chapter.)
CAUTION
Failure to use gauges with the recommended
pressure (psi) rating as listed in the test procedures could result in damage to the gauge
and possible personal injury from leaking hot
oil.
Before Performing Hydraulic Tests
All obvious areas such as oil supply, filter, binding linkage, loose fasteners, or improper adjustments must be
checked before assuming th at a hydraulic component
is the source of the problem being experienced.
WARNING
Before disconnecting or performing any work
on the hydraulic system, all pressure in the
system must be relieved by stopping the engine and opening the bypass valve.
Keep body and hands away from pin hole
leaks or nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Use paper or cardboard,
not hands, to search for leaks. Hydraulic fluid
escaping under pressure can have sufficient
force to penetrate skin and do serious damage. If fluid is injected into the skin, it must be
surgically removed within a few hours by a
doctor familiar with this type of injury or gangrene may result.
1. Thoroughly clean the machine befor e disconne cting
or disassembling any hydraulic components. Always
keep in mind the need for cleanliness when working on
hydraulic equipment.
2. Put caps or plugs on any hydraulic line s lef t open o r
exposed during testing or removal of components.
3. The engine must be in good operating condition. Use
a tachometer when making a hydraulic test. Engine
speed can affect the accuracy of the tester readings.
4. To prevent damage to tester or components, the inlet
and the outlet hoses must be properly connecte d, and
not reversed (tester with pressure and flow capabilities).
5. To minimize the possibility of damaging components,
completely open the load valv e by turning it counterclockwise (tester with pressure and flow capabilities).
6. Install fittings finger tight, far enough t o insure that
they are not cross-threaded, before tightening with a
wrench.
7. Position the tester hoses so that rotating machine
parts will not make contact with them and result in hose
or tester damage.
8. Check the oil level in the reservoir.
9. Check the control lin kage for improper adjustment,
binding or broken parts.
10. All hydraulic tests should be made with the hydraulic
oil at normal operating temperature.
HydroJect™ 3000 Page 4 - 9 Testing
Hydraulic Tests (Fig. 10, 11)
1. Make sure hydraulic oil is at normal operating temperature by operating the machine for approximately 10
minutes.
2. Engage parking brake and stop the engine. Make
sure parking brake is properly adjusted before performing hydraulic tests.
3. With engine off, disconnect hose from bulkhead fitting
and install tester in ser ies between traction pump and
wheel motor. Make sure tester flow control valve is
OPEN.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the oil flow indicator
arrow on the flow gauge is showing that oil will flow
from pump, through tester and to wheel motor.
Test A: Charge Pressure
4. Start the engine and move throttle to full engine RPM
(approx. 3200 RPM).
GAUGE READING: 25 to 70 PSI no load.
5. If there is no pressure, or pre ssure i s low, inspect for
restriction in pump intake line and inlet filter. Inspect
charge relief valve and valve seat. I nspect fo r sheared
charge pump key. Disassemble charge pump and inspect for internal damage or worn parts. If charge pump
is in good condition (no scoring, s cratches, or excessive
wear), piston pump and motor might be suspected of
wear and inefficiency, thus charge pump is unable to
keep up with internal leakage.
NOTE: At pressures above approximately 500 PSI,
mechanical override in handle will cause pump to begin
to de-stroke.
11. If you cannot get 7 GPM or 500 PSI , traction pump
may have internal damage or excessive wear.
TEST C: Traction Motor Efficiency
12. Lower drive wheel to ground and engage park ing
brake. Block front and rear of all wheels. Chain machine
to an immovable object and remove slack from chain.
13. With tester flow control valve open, slowly move
traction handle (up or dow n) so flow is f rom the pump,
through the tester, then to the wheel motor. Move trac-
tion handle until maximum pressure is attained with
wheel not rotating and read flow gauge.
14. If flow reading is higher than 1.5 GPM, motor may
have internal damage or excessive wear.

TEST B: Traction Pump Flow
6. Lift the drive wheel off the grou nd using a jack. Block
front and rear of the other whe els. Make sure the tes ter
flow control valve is OPEN.
7. Start the engine and release the parking brake.
8. While watching flow and pressure gauges, move
traction handle (up or dow n) so flow is f rom the pump,
through the tester, then to the wheel motor. Move traction handle until 6 GPM is obtained.
9. If pressure is less than 200 to 300 PSI g o to ste p 10.
If pressure is more than 200 to 300 PSI stop the engine
and inspect for binding parking b rake. Inspect for restrictioninlines to and from motor . If there are no restricti ons,
motor should be suspected of having internal damage.
10. While watching flow and pressure gauges, move
traction handle (up or down) to full speed position so
flow is from the pump, through the tester, then to the
wheel motor. Slowly close flow control valve until you
get readings of 7 GPM and 500 PSI.
