Hydraulic Pump Leak Test

The hydraulic pump leak test should be performed
whenever operation of the hydraulic system is erratic
or the pump is extremely noisy.
The purpose of the test is to, ascertain if the
malfunction of the system is due to an internal pump
leak or alternatively the ingress of air due to a leak
through a component in the system.
1. Disconnect the breather tube (1) from the top of
the hydraulic lift cover (2).

32
2. Attach approximately 11/2 metres of clear plastic
tubing (1) to the breather connection (2) on top
of the transmission and position the tubing so
that it forms a ‘U’ (Similar to a manometer).
3. Fill the tube with sufficient oil to prevent the
ingress of air through the tube.
4. Set tractor engine speed to 1000 rev/min and pull
and hold remote valve lever
If the hydraulic pump has an internal leak, oil or
bubbles will be sucked from the plastic tube into the
transmission.
If the hydraulic circuit has an external leak the oil in
the ‘U’ of the plastic tube will be pushed towards the
open end of the tube by the air being drawn into the 33
transmission casing through the pump.

WARNING
If the leak is excessively large it is possible for the oil
to be projected out of the tube. Take care to position
the tube so not to cause injury or project oil into the
work area.

6 – 66000 – 06 – 2002
 SECTION 8009 – HYDRAULIC SYSTEM 25

If an external leak is diagnosed use an ‘oil can’ to

selectively apply a film of oil around the joints of the
circuit. For example remote valve tubing joints.
When oil is applied to the leaking joint the noise in the
pump will cease.
If an internal leak is identified inspect mounting face
at pump intake port or intake tube in transmission for
missing or damaged ‘O’ ring, Figure 34.

Steering Pump Test
1
There is no relief valve in the steering pump. The
following practical test will determine if steering
pump output is sufficient to allow satisfactory
operation of the steering system.

Steering Test
1. Set engine speed to 1100 rev/min.
2. Turn steering quickly from lock to lock.
If steering is operating correctly the reaction
should be immediate with no time delay between
turning the steering wheel and movement of the
wheels.
35
3. At full lock the relief valve in the steering motor
should be heard to blow and the engine speed
drop to approximately 970 rev/min.

If the transmission low pressure warning light of

the 120 to 155 Models, or the steering pressure
warning light of the 175 and 190 models comes
on when the steering is held on full lock this is an
indication that the pump has developed an
internal leak. Check torque of pump mounting
bolts and if tight examine pump for leaking seals
or wear.

Steering Circuit Pressure Test

1. Install Tee adaptor (2) 380000570 and quick
release fitting (3) 380000492, into hose to
steering cylinder.
2. Connect 0–250 bar (0–3600 lbf/in2) pressure
gauge (1) 380000553, with hose 380000545,
using quick release coupler 380000543.
3. Set engine speed to 1500 rev/min.
4. Turn steering wheel to full lock and hold in
position.
5. Pressure reading of 186 bar should be recorded.

Steering Relief Valve Pressure Test

IMPORTANT: There is no relief valve in the
steering/low pressure pump and the following
pressure test must only be performed as specified
below. Failure to observe this precaution may result
in severe damage to the hydraulic pump.

1. Turn steering onto full left hand lock.

2. Disconnect the left hand turn feed hose.
3. Install Tee adaptor (4) 380000570 and quick
release fitting (2) 380000492, into the solid tube.
Cap the bottom of the Tee–piece with blanking
cap, 380000599 or a standard No 6 cap (11/16 in
ORFS female thread cap purchased locally (3).
4. Connect 0–250 bar (0–3600 lbf/in2) pressure
gauge, 380000553 (1), with hose 380000545,
using quick release coupler 380000543.
5. Start tractor and set engine speed to
1450 rev/min. Turn steering wheel to the left with
a pull of approximately 22 N (2.25 kgf, 5 lbf) and
observe the pressure reading. 37
NOTE: The use of a force greater than 5 lbf. at the
rim of the steering wheel may lead to slightly inaccur-
ate readings due to the pumping action of the hydro-
static steering motor.
If the steering test was satisfactory but the pressure
readings are away from specification the relief valve
in the steering motor must be adjusted.
The pressure reading should be:–
186 bar (2700 lbf/in2) for all models.
6. If the system pressure is not to specification
proceed to Relief Valve Adjustment.

Low Pressure System Test

The low pressure circuit can be checked on all
models by removing the low pressure warning
switch, located in the transmission side cover for the
semi–Powershift transmission and in the top cover of
the Full Powershift transmission, and inserting fitting

Attach 40 bar (600 lbf.in2) gauge (3) 380000552
using quick release coupler 380000543 and hose
380000545.
Start and run the engine at 1500 rev/min. The gauge
should read 16–18 bar (235–265 lbf.in2), for 120 to

Parking brake (1) engagement makes the switch (21) close. Therefore current is allowed to reach and excite
the relay (2),and through the closed relay contact (2) it excites the solenoid valves (5a and 5b) closing the former
and opening the latter. In this condition line and trailer brake oil (15), subject to the spring (19) force can reach
the discharge through the solenoid valve (5b). Braking action is performed mechanically following the spring (19)
pressure on the pin (18). Oil discharge creates a pressure drop which closes the switch (16), and current, passing
through the switch (16), reaches the instrument panel light indicator (22), which lights up.
Notice – After parking brake engagement, wait approx. 10 seconds before stopping the engine to permit com-
plete oil discharge from trailer brake cylinder and obtain optimal braking action.

Cooler By–pass Valve – Lubrication Pressure

IMPORTANT: Before performing any pressure or
flow testing operate the tractor until the oil in the rear
axle is at normal operating temperature. 755C
(1705F).
The following test checks the operation of the cooler
by–pass valve and lubrication valve and should be
performed if insufficient lubrication pressure is
suspected.
1. Insert the Tee–piece, 380000580, (1), with quick
release fitting, 380000492, (2), into the
lubrication tube, between the transmission top
cover and the oil cooler.
2. Install 27 bar (300 lbf.in2) gauge, 297167, (3) 74
using hose 380000545 and quick release
coupler 380000543.
3. The following pressures should be observed at
the different engine rev/min.

3.0 bar @ 1000 erpm

3.5 bar @ 1500 erpm
7.5 bar @ 2000 erpm
PTO Clutch Lubrication – 175 and 190 Models
The lubrication oil to the PTO clutch can be tested at
the low pressure manifold through test port (5).
1. Remove the test port plug and install adaptor,
380000493 (3) and quick release fitting
380000492 (2).
2. Attach a 27 bar (300 lbf.in2) gauge, 297167, (1)
using quick release coupler 380000543 and
hose 380000545.
3. Start and run the engine at 1500 rev/min.
Operate the PTO and observe the gauge, the
pressure may fluctuate slightly but should remain
between 2–4 bar (29–58 lbf.in2).

Brake Booster Valve Pressure Test – 120 to 155
Models
The system works from the low pressure circuit and
therefore the engine must be running to measure
operation pressures. Both brake pedals must be
pressed simultaneously to operate the booster due
to the logic head in the braking system.
1. Insert a banjo 380000572, (1), quick release
fitting 380000492, (3), in place of the bleed fitting
on the booster.
2. Install a 100 bar (1450 lbf.in2) gauge, 293243,
(2).
3. Disconnect the front axle tube where the solid
tube joins the flexible hose. 76

with quick release coupling, 380000543 and
bleed the front brake line before commencing the
pressure test.
NOTE: Isolating the front brakes eliminates the
possibility of testing with air or leaks at that end of the
system.
5. The following pressures, in bar, should be
observed with the engine OFF and with the
engine at 1000 rev/min with both brake pedals
depressed.

Power Brake Supply and Accumulator Test –
175 and 190 Models
The supply to the power brake system, the
accumulator and system check valve can be
checked for correct operation using the following
procedure.
1. Remove the low brake pressure warning switch
from the manifold and install adaptor 380000577
with quick release fitting 380000492.
2. Attach a 40 bar (600 lbf.in2) gauge (1)
380000552 using quick release coupler
380000543 and hose 380000545.
3. Start and run the engine at 1500 rev/min.
Operate the brake pedal and observe the gauge, 78
the pressure may fluctuate slightly but should
remain between 22–24 bar (319–348 lbf.in2).
4. Turn the engine OFF and observe the gauge. If
the manifold check valve is operating correctly
the pressure should remain between 22–24 bar
(319–348 lbf.in2).
NOTE: If a gradual drop in pressure is indicated the
master cylinder may have an internal leak or a stick-
ing piston assembly. To confirm if a fault is within the
master cylinder, cap the supply to the master cylinder
from the accumulator/manifold assembly and repeat
the test. If the pressure remains constant with the
feed tube capped then this indicates that the master
cylinder has a fault.
5. With the engine OFF, operate the brake pedals,
if the accumulator is working correctly the
system will lose approximately 1 bar (14.5 lbf.in2)
with every application of the brake pedals.
NOTE: The low brake pressure warning switch is set
at 15 bar (218 lbf.in2), therefore after approximately
7–9 applications the instrument cluster warning lamp
will illuminate when the engine is not running.
