The Gear Pump Flow Test should be performed if a cut-
ting deck (or implement) raise and lower problem is
identified. This test will determine if hydraulic flow from
the gear pump is correct.
9. With engine running, move throttle to full speed
(3200 RPM).
10.Watch
tester pressure gauge carefully while slowly
closing the flow control valve until 1000 PSI (69 bar) is
obtained. Do not close tester load valve fully. Verify with
a phototac that the engine speed remains 3200 RPM
while maintaining 1000 PSI (69 bar) on the tester pres-
sure gauge.
Procedure for Gear Pump Flow Test:
NOTE: Over a period of time, the gears and wear plates
in the gear pump can wear. A worn pump will by–pass
oil and make the pump less efficient. Eventually, enough
oil loss will occur to cause the cutting unit motors to stall
under heavy cutting conditions. Continued operation
with a worn, inefficient pump can generate excessive
heat and cause damage to seals and other components
in the hydraulic system.
11.Observe flow gauge. Flow indication for a pump in
good condition is 5.4 GPM (20.4 LPM).
12.Open
tester load valve and then stop engine. Record
test results.
13.Normal
pump flow is 5.4 GPM (20.4 LPM). Lower
1.
Make sure hydraulic oil is at normal operating tem-
pump flow would result in reduced circuit performance.
If flow was less than 4.8 GPM (18.2 LPM) or a pressure
of 1000 PSI (69 bar) cannot be obtained, check for re-
striction in the pump inlet line. If inlet line is not restricted,
remove gear pump and repair or replace as necessary.

Make sure that traction drive is correctly adjusted for
the neutral position.
WARNING
NOTE: Implement relief valve pressure can also be
tested with hydraulic tester (pressure and flow) in series
with the gear pump fitting and the disconnected hose.
Use pressure gauges on hydraulic tester and follow pro-
cedure for Implement Relief Pressure Test in this sec-
tion.
Before disconnecting or performing any work on
the hydraulic system, all pressure in the system
must be relieved. See Relieving Hydraulic System
Pressure in the General Information section.
14.Relieve
hydraulic system pressure (see Relieving
Hydraulic System Pressure in the General Information
section). Disconnect tester from lift control valve fitting
and hydraulic hose. Reconnect hose to the control valve
fitting.

Park machine on a level surface with the cutting deck
lowered and off. Make sure engine is off and the parking
brake is engaged.
