is activated, signal oil is sent to the relay valve in the

The signal oil that is sent to the relay valve in the

When the upshift solenoid or the downshift solenoid is


activated, oil is sent to the rotary actuator. The rotary

In normal operating conditions, a rapid shift may


be necessary. An example of a normal operating
condition is stopping the machine. If a rapid downshift
is not made in this example, the engine will stop.
When the service brake or the retarder is used, the
service brake and retarder pressure switch (3) will
signal the Power Train ECM that rapid shifts are
necessary.

The service brake and retarder pressure switch (3)


will signal the Power Train ECM when a higher engine
rpm is necessary for an upshift or for a downshift. The
service brake and retarder pressure switch (3) also
signals the Power Train ECM to allow rapid shifts.

When the service brakes or the retarder are not used,


the Power Train ECM receives a ground through
the service brake and retarder pressure switch (3).
The Power Train ECM will use normal engine rpm
for upshifts or for downshifts. The Power Train ECM
allows only one shift back to the previous gear to
occur for every two seconds.

When the service brake or the retarder is used, the


Power Train ECM will allow rapid upshifts and rapid
downshifts in order for the machine to stop quickly.
The downshift point will also be raised. This will
maintain a higher engine rpm during downshifting.
This function maximizes the amount of cooling oil
that flows to the brakes during braking. The service
brake and retarder pressure switch (3) is open when
either the service brakes are used or the retarder
brakes are used.

sections are the four sections of the oil pump:

• Transmission lubrication section (1)


• Transmission charge pump section (2)
• Torque converter charge pump section (3)
• Transmission scavenge pump section (4)
The gear pump is driven by a gear on the torque
converter.
RENR8326 25
Systems Operation Section

Note: Each section of the gear pump receives oil that i01026186
is shown in Illustration 29. All of the oil flows from
torque converter sump (10) to the sections of the Magnetic Screen
gear pump. The passages in the torque converter (Transmission)
sump allow the sections to receive oil in the order that
is shown. The purpose for this order does not allow SMCS Code: 3067; 5068
air that is trapped in the torque converter at engine
start-up to be purged through transmission charge
pump section (3). The air will be purged through
torque converter charge pump section (3).

Oil from oil cooler (11) flows through torque converter


sump (10) to transmission lubrication section (1). Oil
from oil cooler (11) for the torque converter and for the
transmission is the only oil that supplies transmission
lubrication section (1). Transmission lubrication
section (1) sends oil for the lubrication of the transfer
gears and of the transmission. The excess oil leaks
to the bottom of the transmission case.

Oil from torque converter sump (10) through


scavenge screen (8) supplies all of the oil for
transmission charge pump section (2). Transmission
charge pump section (2) sends oil to the hydraulic
filter for the transmission charging. Some of the oil
from the transmission charging hydraulic filter flows

flows to the torque converter inlet relief valve. The oil
then flows to the torque converter. A small amount of
this oil lubricates the pump drive.

Transmission scavenge pump section (4) is located


on the drive end. This pump section removes oil from
the bottom of the transmission case. The oil flows
through a magnetic screen to transmission scavenge
pump section (4). The oil that is pulled in by the
transmission scavenge pump section returns to the
torque converter sump (10). g00352599

case goes through the inlet at the bottom. As the oil
is drawn up through tube assembly (8), the oil flows
through the openings that are between magnets (6).
The magnets are installed on the tube assembly so
that the same magnetic ends are next to each other.

As the oil flows over the magnets, metal particles


are stopped by the magnets. The oil then flows
through screen (7) to outlet (5). Other foreign
particles are stopped as the oil flows through the
screen. The particles are not allowed to go into the
hydraulic system. The oil flows from outlet (5) to the
transmission scavenge pump section.

ICM transmission hydraulic controls with a dual

Train Testing and Adjusting, “Transmission Hydraulic
Control (Pressure Pack) - Test and Adjust” describes
the proper order for adjusting the pressures of the
pump for transmission charging and the clutch supply
rail in torque converter drive and direct drive. The
oil that is flowing from the pump for transmission
charging also supplies the torque converter lockup
clutch. If the pump pressure is set too low in direct
drive, the supply oil for the torque converter lockup
clutch will be low. If the supply pressure to the torque

slip and a premature failure may occur. Refer to

The torque converter is driven by the engine flywheel.
The torque converter consists of an impeller, a Fifth X
turbine, a lockup clutch, and a stator with a one-way Sixth X
clutch. The lockup clutch permits the machine to
operate in direct drive in order to keep the power
loss at a minimum. The one-way clutch holds the
stator when the torque converter drive is used. The
one-way clutch allows the stator to turn freely when
the torque converter drive is not used.

The torque converter housing is fastened to the


flywheel housing. The torque converter housing
provides the oil reservoir for the transmission
hydraulics and the torque converter hydraulics. Also,
a pump and three valves are attached to the torque
converter housing. The flange of the output shaft of
the torque converter is connected to the drive shaft.

The transmission is driven by the torque converter in


NEUTRAL and in REVERSE. In FIRST speed, torque
converter drive is used at lower ground speeds. In
FIRST speed, direct drive is used at higher ground
speeds. The lockup clutch is activated in FIRST
speed when the machine reaches a certain ground
speed. During shifts from FIRST speed through
SIXTH speed, torque converter drive is momentarily
activated in order to provide smoother shifts. When
the transmission clutches are engaged, the lockup
clutch engages and the transmission is in direct drive.

The engine flywheel turns rotating housing (1) which


turns impeller (3). The impeller directs the oil to the
blades of turbine (2). This will cause the turbine
to turn. The turbine directs the oil to stator (12).
This causes the stator to try to turn in the opposite
direction of the turbine. The movement of the stator
causes the rollers of one-way clutch (9) to move
between stator (12) and the carrier for the stator. The
action of the one-way clutch keeps the stator from
rotation. The stator now directs most of the oil back to
impeller (3). The remainder of the oil goes out of the
torque converter through outlet passage (5). The oil,
that goes back to impeller (3) from stator (12), moves
in the same direction as the rotation of the impeller.

Turbine (2) turns hub (11). Hub (11) turns output shaft
(6). Power is sent through the output yoke to the drive
shaft and the transfer gears of the transmission.

The one-way clutch functions in order to keep the


stator stationary up to higher torque converter output
speeds. Stator (12) is connected to the cam (14)
through splines. As a result, stator (12) rotates with
cam (14), and race (13) is stationary. Roller cage (16)
is located between cam (14) and race (13). Spring
(17) is partially inserted in a tab at the top and at the
bottom of cage (16). At lower turbine speeds, spring
(17) forces the tab of cage (16) to the right in slot
(18). This forces roller cage (16) to rotate clockwise.
Then, rollers (15) move against the surfaces (19)
of cam (14). The rollers wedge between cam (14)
and race (13). This action locks stator (12) to race
(13) which is stationary. The stator then returns oil
to the impeller which multiplies the torque output of
the torque converter.

As the speed of turbine (2) approaches the speed


of impeller (3), the force of hydraulic oil overcomes
the force of the rollers (15) that are wedged. The
hydraulic oil acts in a clockwise direction on stator
(12). The stator (12) then free wheels in the same
direction as the impeller (3) and turbine (2). The stator
(12) also free wheels when the speed of turbine (2)
exceeds the speed of impeller (3). This occurs during
downhill coasting when the transmission is engaged.

in rotating housing (1) to piston (12). The pressure
of the oil causes piston (12) to move toward disc
(9). This causes plates (10) and discs (9) to be held
together. Plates (10) and discs (9) will now turn at the
same speed. The clutch becomes a direct connection
between rotating housing (1) through hub (13) to
output shaft (6).

This causes turbine (2) and impeller (3) to turn at the


same speed. Stator (14) turns freely. At this time, the
torque converter is not in operation and the machine
is in direct drive.

The flow of power is from rotating housing (1),


through lockup clutch (11), hub (13), output shaft
(6), and the yoke . The power goes directly through
the torque converter to the drive shaft. The drive
shaft sends the power to the transfer gears of the
transmission.

When the lockup clutch is not engaged, the operation


of the torque converter is normal.

The gears throw the oil around inside transfer gear

To describe the operation of this system, there


are four different segments of oil that need to
be defined. Each segment of oil has a change in
pressure when the machine goes from torque
converter drive to direct drive. These pressures
(AA), (BB), (CC), (DD), (EE), and (FF) are shown in
Illustration 48 and Illustration 49.

• Oil from the transmission charge pump


Oil from the transmission charge pump flows through
passage (14). This segment of oil flows to priority
reducing valve (19), lockup solenoid (7), downshift
solenoid (8), and upshift solenoid (9).

• Pilot oil
The segment of pilot oil is the oil that flows from
priority reducing valve (19) through neutralizer valve
(15) to rotary selector spool (16). Rotary selector
spool (16) directs the pilot oil to the various clutch
stations on pressure control valve (11).

• Oil in the clutch supply rail


Oil in the passages from priority reduction valve
(19) to clutch supply rail (22) is another segment
of oil. This segment of oil is supply oil for all of
the modulation reduction valves in each station on
pressure control valve (11).

Systems Operation Section

Table 3
Operation of Components in the Transmission Hydraulic Control
Component Operation (Function)
Lockup solenoid (7) This solenoid sends signal oil in order to activate the torque converter
lockup clutch. This solenoid also activates Station “D” in direct drive in
order to lower the pressure in clutch supply rail (22).
Downshift solenoid (8) This solenoid controls the movement of rotary actuator (10) during downshifts.
Upshift solenoid (9) This solenoid controls the movement of rotary actuator (10) during upshifts.
Rotary actuator (10) This actuator controls movement of the rotary selector spool (16) in
selector and pressure control valve (24).
Priority reduction valve (19) In torque converter drive, priority reducing valve (19) controls the segment for
pilot oil. In direct drive, the priority reducing valve controls the segments of oil
for the transmission charge pump section and for the pilot oil. Priority reducing
valve (19) is shimmed in order to set the pressure of the oil in the segments for
the transmission charge pump and pilot oil in direct drive. The priority reducing
valve is not shimmed in order to set the pilot oil pressure in torque converter
drive. Pilot oil pressure in torque converter drive is a result of the setting of
the pressure of the transmission charge pump section in direct drive.
Dual stage relief valve (20) In torque converter drive, the dual stage relief valve controls the segments of
oil for the transmission charge pump section and for clutch supply rail (22).
In direct drive, the dual stage relief valve controls the segment of oil in the
clutch supply rail only. In direct drive, the action of Station “D” on dual stage
relief valve (20) lowers the pressure in the clutch supply rail. The dual stage
relief valve is shimmed in torque converter drive in order to set the pressure
of the oil in the segments for the pump and the clutch supply rail .
Station “D” In torque converter drive, Station “D” is not activated. The action of
Station “D” maintains the oil of clutch supply rail (22) at a reduced
pressure in direct drive. Station “D” is shimmed in order to set the
pressure of the clutch supply rail in direct drive.
Stations “A”, “B”, “C”, “E”, “F”, and “G” Each station is used to control a clutch in the transmission planetary.

Torque Converter Drive


In torque converter drive, the operation is very
similar for all current ICM transmission hydraulic
controls with a dual stage relief valve. Oil from the
transmission charge pump section flows through
passage (14). The oil pressure (AA) from the
transmission charge pump section supplies priority
reducing valve (19). In torque converter drive, the
spool for priority reducing valve (19) is at metering
point (17) and regulating the segment for pilot oil at a
reduced pressure. Oil pressure from the transmission
charge pump section in passage (14) is directed to
the clutch supply rail (22). The segment of oil from
the transmission charging pump and the segment
of oil in clutch supply rail (22) are at the same oil
pressure (AA). In torque converter drive, dual stage
relief valve (20) is shimmed in order to control the
pressure setting of these two segments of oil. At high
idle in torque converter drive, the pressure of the oil
in the clutch supply rail is higher than the pressure
setting of Stations “A”, “B”, “C”, “E”, “F”, and “G”.
Therefore, modulation reduction valves (13) in the
clutch stations are controlling the pressure that is
flowing to the engaged clutches.
RENR8326 45
Systems Operation Section

Direct Drive i00907090

In direct drive, oil pressure (DD) from the transmission Rotary Actuator
charge pump section flows through passage (14). (Transmission)
Some of this oil flows through the lockup clutch
solenoid (7) to Station “D”. When Station “D” is SMCS Code: 3166
activated, oil pressure (EE) in clutch supply rail (22)
is reduced to oil pressure (FF) from Station “D” by
modulation reduction valve (25) in Station “D”. Oil
pressure (FF) from Station “D” flows under dual
stage relief valve (20). Oil pressure (FF) from Station
“D” causes the pressure setting of the dual stage
relief valve to be reduced. The oil pressure in the
segment of oil for clutch supply rail (22) drops to
the pressure setting of oil pressure (EE). When the
pressure drops, priority reducing valve (19) shifts
from metering point (17) to metering point (27). The
segment of oil from the transmission charge pump
section and the segment for pilot oil are at the same
oil pressure. This only occurs in direct drive. Now,
priority reducing valve (19) is shimmed in order to set
the oil pressure from the transmission charge pump
section. Oil pressure (DD) from the transmission
charge pump section in passage (14) is directed into
the segment for pilot oil to rotary selector spool (16).
The rotary selector spool directs the pilot oil to the
clutch stations.

(11) is now closed by the upshift valve. The pressure
oil flows into upshift valve (10). This moves ball (7)
to the left and oil flows into chamber (B) between
stationary vane (2) and rotor vane (9). This causes
rotor (8) to turn in a clockwise direction.
46 RENR8326
Systems Operation Section

The oil that is in chamber (A) on the opposite side


of rotor vane (9) presses against downshift valve
(4). This causes ball (5) to move to the right side.
Oil is then blocked from flowing through passage
(6). As the rotor turns, the oil in chamber (A) pushes
downshift valve (4) to the right until the valve opens
drain passage (3). The oil that is in chamber (A) is
now able to drain.

When the rotary selector spool and rotor (8) achieve


the correct speed position, the transmission gear
switch that is connected to the rotary selector
spool sends an electrical signal to the Power Train
Electronic Control Module (Power Train ECM). The
Power Train ECM closes the upshift solenoid. This
stops the flow of pressure oil in passage (12). The
movement of rotor (8) then stops.

During a downshift, rotor (8) moves in a


counterclockwise direction. Pressure oil from the
downshift solenoid flows through passage (6).
Downshift valve (4) is moved to the left. This closes
drain passage (3). The pressure oil from passage (6)
goes into downshift valve (4). The pressure oil moves
ball (5) to the left and oil flows into chamber (A).
This causes rotor (8) to turn in a counterclockwise
direction.

The oil that is in chamber (B) presses against upshift


valve (10). This causes ball (7) to move to the right.
This stops oil from going through passage (12). As
the rotor turns, the oil in chamber (B) pushes the
upshift valve to the right until drain passage (11) is
open to chamber (B).

When the rotor achieves the correct speed position,


the Power Train ECM deactivates the downshift
solenoid. Pressure oil in passage (6) is stopped. This
stops the movement of rotor (8).

When the transmission is in the NEUTRAL position,


rotor (8) is in the position that is shown. The downshift
solenoid is always activated in the NEUTRAL position
so that the rotor is locked in position.

Direct Drive
In direct drive, the action of Station “D” on the dual
stage relief valve lowers the pressure in the clutch
supply rail. Oil from the pump for transmission
charging flows to Station “D”. When Station “D” is
activated, pressure (FF) flows under the dual stage
relief valve. This pressure reduces the pressure
setting of the dual stage relief valve. Metered oil from
the priority reducing valve flows from passage (1) to
the dual stage relief valve (17). The oil flows through
an orifice in the dual stage relief valve (17). This
opens a poppet valve. Oil fills the chamber between
the poppet and the slug. As the pressure increases,
the oil moves the relief valve upward against the
force of the spring (16).

At the same time, the lockup clutch solenoid sends


pilot oil to passage (3). This oil pressure causes the
ball that is inside shuttle valve (9) to move downward.
This blocks drain passage (8) and pilot oil is sent to
passage (4). This pilot oil travels through passage
(4) to Station D of the pressure control valve. Oil
pressure (FF) from station D of the pressure control
valve flows through passage (20) to the slug chamber
at the lower end of dual stage relief valve (17). When
the pressure of the oil reaches the relief pressure,
dual stage relief valve (17) moves up. Oil is then able
to flow out of passage (22) to the torque converter
inlet relief valve. The relief pressure of the dual stage
relief valve (17) is lower during direct drive.

The lower pressure setting in direct drive provides


only enough pressure for the prevention of clutch
slippage. This lengthens the life of the large rotating
clutch seal rings.

Pilot passage (5) for station D is connected to the


shuttle valve in the selector and pressure control
valve. When pilot oil from the lockup clutch solenoid
is sent through pilot passage (5), the pilot oil pushes
selector piston (10), load piston (11), and modulation
reduction valve (12) to the right. Pump oil flows from
passage (15) to passage (14). Passage (14) sends
pump oil to the bottom of the dual stage relief valve in
the selector and pressure control valve. This lowers
the setting of the dual stage relief valve. Station D
does not have a modulating orifice or a decay orifice.

The lower pressure setting in direct drive provides


only enough pressure for the prevention of clutch

Power from the engine goes to the torque converter.


The power then goes through the drive shaft to
the transfer gears. The transfer gears are fastened
directly to the front of the transmission case. The
power then goes through the planetary transmission
to the differential.

The transmission has six forward speeds and one


reverse speed. REVERSE and NEUTRAL use only
torque converter drive. At lower ground speeds,
FIRST speed uses torque converter drive. At higher
ground speeds, FIRST speed uses direct drive.
As the ground speed increases in FIRST speed,
the lockup clutch of the torque converter engages.
This provides FIRST speed with direct drive. The
torque converter is always in direct drive for speeds
SECOND through SIXTH, but there is a short
period of torque converter drive when the clutches
engage in the transmission. This provides smooth,
automatic upshifting from SECOND through SIXTH
and smooth, automatic downshifting from SIXTH
through SECOND.

The transmission has a combination of three rotating


clutches, three stationary clutches, and four planetary
units. This provides six forward speeds and one
reverse speed. No. 1 clutch (5), No. 2 clutch (6), and
No. 3 clutch (9) are the rotating clutches.

Input torque goes from the transfer gears to input


shaft (1). Input shaft (1) drives the rotating housing
and the transmission input clutch arrangement.
Center shaft (7) connects the input section to
the output section. Center shaft (7) also carries
the sun gears that drive the output section of the
transmission. Center shaft (7) and input shaft (1) turn

The pump motor (14) drives the rear axle oil pump
(13). The rear axle oil pump (13) sends oil to the rear
axle oil filter (3) and to the final drive bypass manifold
(9). If the machine is equipped with an auxiliary
cooler (5) oil will flow through the cooler before the
bypass valve. The auxiliary cooler (5) reduces the
temperature of the oil.

The bypass solenoid valve (8) sends oil to the final


drive and to the differential gear (7) or the bypass
solenoid valve (8) will bypass the right final drive
(10) and the left final drive (11). This prevents the
final drives from receiving too much oil under certain

The brake ECM controls the system for the rear axle
oil. The temperature sensor is located in the rear axle
housing. The temperature sensor is the main control
for the supply solenoid valve (18) and the bypass
solenoid valve (8). During start-up, the system is
turned ON in order to charge the lube system. The
system is turned OFF if the lube oil is cold. If the
machine goes faster than 35 km/h (22 mph) the lube
system is cycled. When the lube system is cycled,
the system turns ON and the system turns OFF. This
prevents the final drives from filling with excessive
oil. The gear limit is used to prevent the machine
from running at high speed until the differential oil
has warmed up.

If the filter element becomes full of debris, the


restriction to the flow of oil causes a pressure
increase inside the filter. If the pressure of the oil
achieves the bypass pressure, the pressure oil
causes bypass valve (7) to move against the force of
spring (8). The oil then goes through open bypass
valve (7). This oil flows through the bypass passage
and to the final drive bypass manifold. Filter bypass
switch (6) notifies the VIMS of this occurrence. When
the oil does not go through the filter element, the
debris that is in the oil may cause damage to the
other components in the system.

Correct maintenance must be used to ensure that

The side gears are connected to the drive axles by

When the machine is moving in a straight direction


and each drive wheel has the same amount of
traction, both wheels receive the same amount of
load. The same amount of torque is felt on each axle.
This torque holds differential bevel pinions (4) so that
the differential bevel pinions do not turn on spider
(2). This will provide the same effect as if both drive
wheels are fastened to the same drive axle.

When different loads are put on the drive wheels,


differential bevel pinions (4) will turn because
the forces are different on the opposite sides of
the differential. During a turn, the rotation of the
differential bevel pinions will allow a slower rotation of
the inside wheel and a faster rotation of the outside
wheel. The machine is driven with full power in a turn.

Side gears (10) turn against thrust washers (12). The


end thrust of the differential bevel pinions (4) against
the differential case is taken by a double bearing
assembly. The bearing assemblies must be changed
