Testing
The most effective method for isolating problems in the
hydraulic system is by  using hydraulic test equipment
such as pressure gauges and flow meters in the circuits
during  various  operational checks  (See  the  Special
Tools section in this Chapter).
WARNING
Before disconnecting or performing any work
on the  hydraulic system,  all pressure  in the
system must  be relieved.  See  Relieving Hy-
draulic System Pressure in the General Infor-
mation section.
Before Performing Hydraulic Tests
IMPORTANT: All obvious areas such as oil supply,
filter,bindinglinkages,  loosefasteners, orimproper
adjustmentsmustbecheckedbeforeassumingthat

a phototac  when performing a  hydraulic test.  Engine
speed can affect  the accuracy of  the tester readings.
Check actual speed of the pump when performing flow
testing.
Precautions for Hydraulic Testing

The inlet and the outlet hoses must be properly con-
nected and not reversed (tester with pressure and flow

binding, or broken parts.
Check  control  linkages  for improper  adjustment,
Keepbodyandhandsawayfrompinholeleaks
or nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid under high
pressure.  Do  not  use  hands  to  search  for
leaks; use paper or cardboard. Hydraulic fluid
escaping under pressure  can have sufficient
force to penetrate the skin and cause serious
injury. 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. Gan-
grene may result from such an injury.
10.All hydraulic tests should be made with the hydraulic
oil at normal operating temperature.
11.
If a traction circuit problem exists, consider perform-
ing one or more of the following  tests: Traction Circuit
Working Pressure, Charge Relief Valve Pressure, Pis-
ton Pump (P3) Flow & Traction Relief Pressure and/or
Wheel Motor Efficiency Tests.
12.If
a cutting circuit problem exists, consider perform-
ing one or more of the following tests: Cutting Deck Cir-
cuit  Pressure, Manifold  Relief  Valve  (R1)  Pressure,
Logic  (Counterbalance) Valve  (LC1)  Pressure, Gear
Pump (P1) Flow and/or Deck Motor Efficiency Tests.
1.
Clean machine thoroughly before disconnecting  or
disassembling any hydraulic components. Always keep
in mind the need for  cleanliness when working on hy-
draulic equipment. Contamination will cause excessive
wear of components.
