FLOW TESTER READING TO BE: A pump in good
condition should have a flow of approximately 4.9
GPM (18.5 LPM) at 800 PSI (55 bar).

Open the tester flow control valve, stop engine and
Before opening hydraulic system, operate all hy-
draulic controls to relieve system pressure and
avoid injury from pressurized hydraulic oil. See
Relieving Hydraulic System Pressure in the Gen-
eral Information section of this chapter.

flow is less than 4.4 GPM (16.6 LPM) or a pressure
of 800 PSI (55 bar) cannot be obtained, consider that a
pump problem exists. Check for restriction in pump in-
take line. If intake is not restricted, remove gear pump
and repair or replace pump as necessary (see Gear
Pump in the Service and Repairs section of this chap-
ter).

testing is completed, make sure that engine is
stopped, then relieve hydraulic system pressure (see
Relieving Hydraulic System Pressure in the General In-

IMPORTANT: Make sure that the oil flow indicator
arrow on the flow meter is showing that the oil will
flow from the hydraulic tube, through the tester and
into the traction pump.
