Caution notices provide information that if not heeded, could cause damage to the
equipment. For Example:
Do not mix brake fluid with other fluids. Only use fluid that meets
DOT 3 specifications.
CAUTION
Warnings provide important safety information that if not headed, could injure or kill
somebody. For example:
If the engine is hot, never open the radiator cap
without checking to see if the radiator hoses are
pressurized.
Without pressure, coolant boils at 212○F (10○C) at sea
level, declining 1.5○F (1○C) for each 1,000 of
Warning elevation. Pressure increases the boiling temperature.
Releasing the pressure while the coolant is hot can
cause very rapid boiling and severe scalds.
General Information
This handbook contains operation and service information, including parts breakdown, for the
warehouse tractor manufactured by Harlan Global Manufacturing, Kansas City, Kansas.
Purpose of Equipment
The warehouse tractor is designed for the towing of loaded carts, airplanes, and other heavy
equipment. The tractor is a self-contained, enclosed, rider-type mechanized vehicle.
Description
The warehouse tractor has a gasoline driven engine, rear wheel drive, front wheel steering and
pneumatic tires. The electrical system is a 12-volt negative ground type with alternator, voltage
regulator, and a positive engagement starter with anti-restart system. The following paragraphs
describe the major components of the warehouse tractor.
Engine
The tractor is powered by a pressure-lubricated, water cooled, four cylinder valve-in-head engine. V-
belt drives from the crankshaft pulleys supply power to the engine-contained water pump and the
engine-mounted alternator. The engine is composed of three major assemblies: the crankcase
assembly, the cylinder head assembly, and camshaft/valve train assembly.
Transmission
The three speed automatic transmission provides automatic shifting through the three forward gears,
or manual selection of first, second, and reverse gears. The transmission is controlled by, the
operator’s shift selector and the vacuum modulator valve. The automatic transmission is composed
of the front oil pump, the three-speed valve assembly, the clutch packs, and the torque converter.
Drive Train
The transmission output is carried by the drive shaft to the transfer case. The transfer case reduces
the gear ratio to the differential, which provides a low speed output capability. The major
components of the drive train consist of the drive shaft, the universal joints, the transfer case, and the
differential and axle assembly.
Steering
The front wheel steering is available with power assist or fully hydrostatic systems.
Brakes
Operation of the foot brake pedal activates the power assist unit, which forces fluid from the dual
master cylinder reservoir. One reservoir fluid supply operates the front brakes and the other reservoir
fluid supply operates the rear brakes. Loss of one fluid supply does not affect the other. For parking,
the handbrake mechanically operates a drum parking brake in the transmission.
The major components of the foot brake system are the power assist unit, the master cylinder, the
front drum or calipers, and the rear discs. The major components of the hand brake assembly are the
brake lever and the drum assembly.
Electrical System
The engine-mounted, belt-driven alternator provides power to the ignition system, the windshield
wipers (optional), the heater fan (optional), the instruments, and the lights. A safety interlock switch
prevents the starter motor from engaging when the transmission selector is in a position other than
neutral. The fuses protect the electrical circuitry. An anti-restart system prevents unsafe starter motor
operation. A safety interlock switch has been incorporated into the electrical system that will shut the
engine down if the parking brake is engaged when the transmission is in any position other than
neutral. The major components of the electrical system are the alternator, the battery, and the starter
motor.
General Rules
• Do not start or operate the tow tractor from any position other than from the designated
operator’s position.
• Keep hands and feet inside the operator’s designated position. Do not put any part of the
body outside of this position.
• Learn the limitations of the tractor and operate it in a safe manner. Doing so will prevent
injury to personnel. Be on the watch for pedestrians at all times. Do not drive a tow
tractor up to anyone standing in front of an object. Exercise extreme caution at cross
aisles, doorways, and other locations where pedestrians may step into the path of the
tractor.
• Do not permit passengers to ride on any tractor unless a safe place to ride has been
provided by the manufacturer.
• A tow tractor is considered to be "attended" when the operator is less than 25 ft (7.6 m)
from it and when the tractor remains in his view. Do not leave a running tow tractor
unattended.
• A tow tractor is considered to be "unattended" when the operator is more than 25 ft (7.6
m) from the tow tractor or when the operator leaves the tractor and it is not in his view.
• Maintain a safe distance from the edge of ramps, platforms, and other similar edged
surfaces.
• In areas classified as hazardous, use only tow tractors approved for those areas.
• Report all accidents involving personnel, building structures, and equipment to the proper
authority immediately.
• Do not add to or modify the tow tractor.
• Do not block access to fire aisles, emergency exits, stairways, and fire equipment.
The following controls and indicators are typical. Not all panels look exactly like the one shown and
not all tractors have all the options shown here.

5. Any time the tractor is stopped for longer than a minute with the engine running, be sure that the
transmission is in the neutral position (N).
Cooling System
The warehouse tractor’s cooling system is thermostatically controlled. The engine-mounted water pump
forces coolant through the radiator when the thermostat opens. The fan pulls air through the radiator for
additional cooling when the tractor is idling or during low speed operation. The coolant also passes through
the heater (optional) to provide warm air to the cab for driver comfort. The major components of the cooling
system are the water pump and the radiator.
Battery Safety
Because the alternator and regulator are designed for use with a one-polarity system, the following
precautions must be observed when working on the charging circuit. Failure to observe these
precautions could result in serious damage to the electrical equipment.
• When installing a battery, always be sure that the ground polarity of the battery and the
ground polarity of the alternator are the same.
• When connecting a booster battery, be sure that the negative battery terminal is connected
to the tractor engine block and that the positive battery terminals are connected together.
• When connecting a charger to the battery, connect the charger’s positive lead to the
battery’s positive terminal and the negative lead to the battery’s negative terminal.
• Never operate the alternator on an open circuit. Be sure that all connections in the circuit
are secure.
• Do not short across or ground any of the terminals on the alternator.
• Do not attempt to polarize the alternator.
Traveling
• Observe all traffic regulations, including authorized speed limits. Under normal traffic
conditions, keep to the correct side of the road. Maintain a safe distance, based on speed
of travel, from the vehicle ahead, and keep the tow tractor under control at all times.
• Slow down and sound the audible warning device(s) at cross aisles and other locations
where vision is obstructed.
• Always face in the direction of travel. Keep a clear view of the path of travel and observe
for other traffic, personnel, and safe clearances.
• At all times, operate the tow tractor at a speed that will permit an emergency stop that can
be executed in a safe manner.
• Do not indulge in stunt driving or horseplay. Avoid reckless driving, a towing tractor can
be dangerous if operated in an unsafe manner.
• Slow down when operating the tractor on wet and slippery floors and roadways.
• When negotiating turns, reduce speed to a safe level, and turn the hand steering
mechanism in a smooth, sweeping motion. Except when maneuvering at a very low
speed, turn the hand steering mechanism at a moderate, even rate.
Note: If the tow tractor is in need of repair, or if it is in any way unsafe to operate, or if it
in any way contributes to an unsafe condition, the situation must be reported
immediately to the proper personnel. The tow tractor must not be operated until it
has been restored to a safe operating condition.

1. Before removing any item, refer to the troubleshooting guide to determine if the problem is
actually the suspected component. The information contained in these charts will help isolate
problems to a specific component.
2. Before removing any component, be sure that the system is not energized or pressurized.
Disconnect the battery ground cable and be sure that all controls are in the "OFF" position
before beginning any overhaul operation.
3. Be sure that adequate clearance exists for removal of component. Disassemble adjacent
components and structure as necessary to provide adequate removal clearance.
4. Before removing exterior parts, clean mud, tar, grease or ether foreign materials from them.
This will assist in the inspection and disassembly processes. Exterior surfaces can be cleaned
using a vapor pressure, spray-rinse cleaner.
5. Use a chain hoist, jack, or other suitable tool to lift the heavier components, position and
attach the lifting device to the component to remove ail strain from the mounting hardware
before the hardware is removed.
6. To make installation easier, apply identifying tags to the mating ends of components as they
are removed or disconnected. Identify parts of similar configuration to be sure that they are
returned to their proper locations.
7. Make a note or diagram of the original position of components before removing. During
reinstallation, be sure the original position is restored.
8. Treat all components, even if defective, as valuable items because of possible reclamation or
salvage value.
Disassembly Instructions
1. To avoid contamination of the internal parts of the components, keep the work area as clean
as possible.
2. Replace all gaskets, packings, and seals that are removed in the course of overhaul operations
with new ones whenever possible. These items are usually damaged or destroyed during the
process of disassembly. Replace all lock wires, spring washers, cotter pins, and like items
during reassembly.
3. Do not use a metal tool to pry, pick or scrape off gaskets, packings or seals. Using metal
tools will scratch the sealing surfaces adjacent to these items. Instead, use a pointed wooden
dowel to remove packings from their grooves. Use wood or plastic scrapers on gasket
surfaces.
4. Before disassembling any component, study the exploded-view illustration. Pay close
attention to the relationship of internal parts. Being familiar with construction will speed up
disassembly and help avoid improper reassembly.
5. To prevent moisture and foreign material from entering open housings and lines, install
protective plugs or covers as soon as possible after disassembly. Wrap parts in clean paper or
dip parts in preservation oil.
6. Remove only parts requiring repair or replacement. Do not disassemble a component any
further than necessary to complete needed repairs.
Cleaning Instructions
Clean these parts with a clean, lint-free cloth only. Cleaning solvents can
react with these materials and cause severe damage to or destruction of
CAUTION
these parts.
1. Use cleaning solvent in well-ventilated areas or in spray booths. Do not use gasoline for
cleaning parts.
2. After soaking parts in cleaning solvent, wash away deposits by flushing or spraying with
additional solvent. Use a soft-bristled, nonmetallic brush dipped in solvent when
necessary.
3. Dry all parts except bearings using filtered, compressed air after cleaning.
4. Unless specifically noted in the OVERHAUL PROCEDURES section, do not use metal
scrapers, wire brushes, abrasive wheels, or compounds when cleaning parts.
5. Put ball or roller bearings in a basket that is suspended in a container of cleaning solvent
overnight. Use a soft bristle brush dipped in cleaning solvent to remove caked grease and
chips. To prevent damaging balls and races, do not rotate the bearing before solid
particles are removed. After cleaning, immediately spin bearings in a light lubricating oil
to remove the solvent. Allow the excess oil to drip off.
6. Check all oil passages and cavities for cleanliness and freedom from foreign material.
Run a thin, flexible wire through oil passages to make certain they are not clogged. Clean
dirty or clogged passages with a pressure spray gun and dry cleaning solvent.
7. Clean electrical parts, such as relays, switches, terminals, etc., with a cloth moistened in
dry cleaning solvent.
8. Clean exterior surfaces of the battery with a weak solution of baking soda and water.
Apply the solution with a soft bristle brush to remove corrosive build up on the battery
cable terminals.
9. Wash painted surfaces of the vehicle with warm, soapy water. Rinse with clean water and
dry with a clean cloth or allow to air dry.
Inspection Procedures
1. Check all surfaces that come in contact with gaskets, packings or seals for nicks, burrs,
and scratches that can damage the new parts during reassembly.
2. Check bearings for rusted or pitted balls, races and separators. Check balls and races for
1
brinelling, abrasions and discoloration. Excluding defects which may cause bearing
binding or misalignment, nicks or gouges outside the race load areas are not cause for
rejection. Reject bearings only for cuts or grooves that run parallel to ball or roller
rotation, fatigue pits (not minor machine marks or scratches), or cracks that are detected
during magnetic particle inspection.
3. Check all hoses for broken or frayed fabric, damaged fitting threads, and breaks or leaks
caused by sharp bends or rubbing against other parts of the vehicle. Be sure that the
clamps do not crimp the hoses.
4. Check all wires and wiring harnesses for damaged insulation, cuts, and breaks. Check
terminals and connectors for loose connections, corrosion, and broken parts.
5. Check all cap screws, nuts, fittings and tapped holes for distortion and for stripped or
corroded threads.
6. Check painted surfaces for cracked, peeling or chipped paint.
7. Check exterior parts and chassis for cracks.
1
Brinelling is a surface fatigue caused by overloading or repeated impact. It is a sign of impending
bearing failure, possibly caused by contamination or over-tightened bearings.
Reassembly Instruction
1. Remove all protective coatings from new parts.
2. Lubricate bearings with the same type of lubricant that is normally used or as directed in the
OVERHAUL PROCEDURES section.
3. Reassemble preformed packings as follows:
a. Lubricate the packing with mineral oil or the specified lubricant.
b. Dovetail the groove. Then stretch the packing and put it into position.
c. Rotate the part on a flat surface and apply pressure downward to seat the
packing.
4. Lubricate the lips of oil seals with same type of lubricant normally used in the component or
as specifically directed in the OVERHAUL PROCEDURES section.
5. Install oil seals, with lip facing in, by applying an even force to the outer edge of seal.
6. Coat both sides of gaskets with gasket sealing compound. Be sure all old gaskets and sealant
are removed from parts before installing new gaskets.
7. Rethread caps crews of a part by hand until snug then tighten in a crisscross pattern to final
torque. Install all caps crews, nuts and fasteners dry unless specifically directed to do so in
the OVERHAUL PROCEDURES section.
8. Seal all pipe threads with Teflon® tape.
Installation Instructions
1. Be sure components are placed in the same position that they were in when removed.
2. Check all identifying tags for the correct connection of all lines and hoses.
3. Check the level of lubricant or fluid. Add or drain as required.
4. Perform a test run on the vehicle and inspect the repaired component(s) for proper
adjustment, leaks, vibration, noise or misalignment. Correct any problems immediately.
6. Drain the radiator and disconnect the transmission cooling lines from the radiator.
Disconnect the radiator hoses from the engine. Remove the four radiator mounting bolts and
lift the radiator and radiator hoses out of the truck.
7. Disconnect the drive shaft by removing the four bolts that connect the drive shaft to the drive

G, Brake System
Brake System Master VAC Unit
General Description
The Bendix Tandem Diaphragm Master-VAC is a self-contained vacuum-hydraulic unit for power
braking that uses engine manifold vacuum and atmospheric pressure for its power. It permits the use
of a low brake pedal, and provides reduced pedal effort, compared to the conventional (non-power)
hydraulic braking system.
The dual system hydraulic section of the Master-VAC is similar to the manually operated dual-
system master cylinder except that the hydraulic push rod is a part of the power section. The separate
hydraulic systems provided by this master cylinder prevent a hydraulic failure of either system from
affecting the other system. If a hydraulic failure does occur, the driver is aware of it, either
immediately, when it happens, or on the next brake application because of the increased pedal travel
required to get braking action. In addition, vehicle deceleration with only the front or rear brakes
functioning will, usually, be less effective, requiring either greater pedal effort for the same stopping
distance or greater distance.
The Bendix Tandem Diaphragm Master-VAC consists of three basic elements combined into a
single unit. These three basic elements are:
• A vacuum power chamber consists of a front and rear shell, a center plate, a front and rear
diaphragm and plate assembly, an hydraulic push rod and a vacuum diaphragm and plate
return spring.
• A manually actuated control vane integral with the vacuum power diaphragm and plate hubs
that controls the degree of power brake application or release in accordance with the foot
pressure applied to the valve operating rod through the brake pedal linkage. The control
valve consists of a single poppet with an atmospheric port and a vacuum port. The vacuum
port seat is formed in the hub of the rear diaphragm plate. The atmospheric port seat is part of
the valve plunger, which moves within the vane-housing hub of the diaphragm plates.
• A hydraulic dual-system master cylinder that provides two hydraulic fluid reservoirs, cast
integrally with and connected to the bore through separate sets of compensating and fluid
inlet (bypass) ports. Both reservoirs are sealed by a rubber diaphragm inside the bale-type
cover. A primary piston assembly with secondary seal, primary cup, protector, spring, screw
and spacer; a secondary piston with two "back to back" secondary seals, primary cup
protector, spring and spring retainer; a piston stop screw and o-ring seal; and one check valve
(residual pressure), springs and tube seat retainers mounted in the two outlet ports provide
the operating components of the two separate hydraulic systems.
The vacuum power diaphragm plates and parts that make up the valve assembly are connected to the
brake pedal through the valve operating rod. The valve operating rod is connected to the valve
plunger which moves within the hub of the power diaphragm and plate assembly. A valve return
spring returns the valve plunger and valve rod to the released position when the brake pedal is
released. The valve poppet is of the flexible rubber type and is supported by the valve body hub of
the rear diaphragm plate. In the released position, the poppet return, spring holds the poppet against
the atmospheric port seat (valve plunger). A special type of seal is used to seal the opening between
the valve body sleeve and the rear shell.
Vacuum is supplied to the power brake unit through a vacuum check valve mounted in the front
shell.
Air for operation is admitted through silencer-filters within the valve housing. At its front end, the
power section incorporates another special seal to close the opening between the front shell and
hydraulic push rod. The hydraulic push rod is the link between the vacuum diaphragm and plate
assembly and the hydraulic pistons in the master cylinder. The center plate, located between the two
diaphragms, divides the power unit into four chambers. A long, threaded hub on the front plate slides
through the center hole in the center plate and is screwed into the hub of the rear plate to maintain a
set separation between the two diaphragms as the front and rear plates and diaphragms sealed by a
vacuum seal that is permanently installed in the stationary center plate. Two drilled air passages
intersect in the mounting flange of the master cylinder to provide "free breathing" for this cavity
during braking.
Principles of Operation
With the engine running and the brakes released, vacuum from the intake manifold is admitted
through the vacuum check valve to the vacuum chamber. This maintains vacuum availability long
enough to stop the tractor should the engine stop running before while the tractor is moving.
Dual fluid reservoirs, cast integrally with the master cylinder, supply fluid pressure to the front and
rear brakes independently.
Nut
Gauge
Note: Air may be trapped in the output ports when the plugs are removed to attach the
hydraulic lines. To remove this air, see Brake System Bleeding on Page 140.
Hydro-Boost Systems
Hydraulic pressure supplied from engine-driven the hydraulic pump (1) through the tee-fitting (2) to
the pressure relief valve (3). The regulated pressure is connected to the Hydro-Boost unit (4) at it’s
import port (5).
The Hydro-Boost unit isolates the hydraulic fluid supply (Dexron III) from the brake system
reservoir (filled with DOT-3 Brake Fluid) as it amplifies the driver’s braking effort. When the driver
applies the brakes, the fluid from the master cylinders is forced into the brake lines connected at the
master cylinders brake line connections (6).
For power assist steering, the Hydro-Boost unit supplies hydraulic fluid pressure to the steering
gearbox (8) at its pressure input (7). The hydraulic fluid exits the steering gearbox at (9) and returns
to the Hydro-Boost unit at (10).
A low-pressure return line exits the Hydro-Boost unit at (11), joins the return line from the pressure
relief valve (3) and returns to the hydraulic reservoir (12) at (13).
Unit at Rest
The major components are labeled with an enlarged view of the ports identifying the ports, lands,
laps, and gaps of the valve in the "at rest" position. Oil flows from the inlet or pump port, across the
number 3 land and out the gear port. In the position shown, steering pressure created by the steering
gear and pump is isolated from the boost cavity by the spool valve and does not affect braking.
Lands 2 and 4 block this steering pressure avoiding activation of the unit.
Pivot
The lower enlarged view of the spool valve shows the relationship of the valve lands during normal
power operation. Land 1 is closed blocking the oil flow to the reservoir. Land 3 meters the flow of
oil from the supply pump to the steering gear and generates the hydraulic pressure that is metered
across land 2 to apply the brakes.
The upper enlarged view of the valve shows the same operation except pressure is generated by the
steering gear and is also being used for braking. During this mode of operation, the spool travel is
slightly less than the first case.
It is important to note that braking and steering pressures are not additive and that full pump flow is
available to the steering gear at all braking pressures less than power runout.
Pivot
System Test
To test the system:
1. Park the tractor and chock the wheels.
2. Turn the engine off.
3. Apply the brakes several times.
4. Hold the brake pedal in the applied position and start the engine.
The brake pedal should drop or "fall away" for a few seconds, but then push back upward as
the hydraulic pressure recharges the reserve accumulator.
5. If the pedal fails to "fall away" or return to normal height, replace the Hydro-Boost unit.
Master Cylinder Repair
Always use the correct master cylinder repair kit when overhauling a Bendix Dual System master
cylinder.
Always replace all rubber parts when overhauling a Bendix Dual System master cylinder. Metal
parts cleaner MUST NOT be used on any part used in the hydraulic system. Use a Stoddard Type
cleaning solvent to clean and rinse all master cylinder parts, and use crocus cloth to polish them, if
necessary. If the bore contains rust, corrosion, or pitted areas, a master cylinder hone may be used.
However, never attempt to reuse a master cylinder if the resulting bore is more than ,006 IN over
standard size after honing.
Master Cylinder Cleaning
Wash all hydraulic system parts in Stoddard Type cleaning solvent. Remove spots, deposits or pitted
areas inside the master cylinder with a crocus cloth or hone, and then re-wash the master cylinder
thoroughly with CLEAN Stoddard Type cleaning solvent to remove all dust. DO NOT attempt to re-
use a master cylinder if the resulting bore is more than .006" oversize. Discard all rubber parts,
except for the filler diaphragm.
Master Cylinder Inspection
Inspect all metal parts for damage or wear. Replace any damaged or worn parts.
The 02026-0619 Seal Kit can be used only in brake systems using DOT-3 brake
fluid. Do not use it with electric tractors, which use Automatic Transmission
Fluid (ATF) in the master cylinder.
Caution
1. Clamp the master cylinder in a vise with the hub end tilted slightly upward.
2. Remove the snap ring (h) and the pistons.
3. Disassemble the primary and secondary pistons. Retain all metal parts (Figure 90, a to h).
Discard all the rubber parts (Figure 90, 1 to 5).
4. Dip all the new seals in clean brake fluid.
5. Install new seals on the Secondary Piston (c):
a. Install an Inner Primary Cup (1) in the secondary piston inner groove (spring end).
b. Slide the O-Ring (2) in the secondary piston middle groove.
c. Install the Secondary cup (3) onto the secondary piston outer groove.
d. Install the Cup Retainer (b) and spring (a).
6. Install new seals on the Primary Piston (g):
a. Install an Inner Primary Cup (1) in the Primary Piston inner groove (spring end).
b. Install the Cup Retainer (b), Spring (f), Spring Retainer (e), and screw (d).
c. Install the Outer Primary Cup (4) in the Primary Piston outer groove.
7. Dip piston assemblies in clean brake fluid.
Master Cylinder Reassembly
1. Slide the secondary piston and spring assembly onto the master cylinder bore. When the skirt
on the seal reaches the cylinder surface, press on the skirt and twist piston to ease the cup
into the bore and past the snap ring groove.
2. Slide the Primary Piston and Spring Assembly into the bore using the same technique to get
the skirt on the seal past the snap ring groove.
3. Press against the rear piston with the handle of a small screw driver to compress the return
springs. DO NOT use a sharp-edged tool because this will damage the push rod seat inside
the piston. Install the snap ring (h) in the groove just inside the bore while maintaining
pressure on the piston. Be sure that the snap ring is seated securely in the groove before you
release the pressure on the piston.
4. Install the filler diaphragm (5) and cover and plug the ports temporarily to prevent the entry
of dust or dirt. The holes are.395 IN diameter.
5. Remove the master cylinder from the vise.
Note: The dual system master cylinder must be bench bled to remove all air from the
master cylinder bore before returning the master cylinder to service.
1. Clamp the master cylinder in a vise with the front end tilted slightly downward. Fill the
reservoirs with clean brake fluid. Install a plug in each output port.
2. Insert a rod with a smooth rounded end into the primary piston and press on the rod to
compress the piston returns springs. Release the pressure from the rod. Continue to compress
and release the springs as long as bubbles appear in the fluid in the reservoirs.
3. Reposition the master cylinder in the vise so that the front end is tilted slightly upward. Insert
the rod into the primary piston once again and compress and release the springs as tong as
bubbles appear in the fluid in the reservoirs.
4. Refit the reservoir diaphragm and the cover.
Front Brake Assembly Removal
1. Remove the tires and hubs. Refer to the part titled Steer Axle Hub Removal for complete
details on tire and hub removal.
2. Remove the brake hoses from the brake lines. Remove the nuts that mount brake hoses on the
frame.
3. Plug the hoses and brake lines to prevent contamination.
4. Remove the mounting hardware that attaches drum brake backing plate or brake calipers to
spindle/knuckle 5. This hardware is #10, 11, 12, and 13 in Figure 92, Drum Brake, #10 and 11 in
Figure 93 Standard Axle Caliper, and #12 and 13 in Figure 94 Heavy Duty Axle Caliper.
5. Remove the brake assembly.
Do not mix brake fluid with other fluids. Only use fluid that meets
DOT 3 specifications.
CAUTION
Pressure Bleeding
Pressure bleeding is recommended. Carefully follow the instructions that are included with pressure
bleeding equipment.
Manual Bleeding
1. Clean the master cylinder and the surrounding area. Remove the master cylinder cover and
be sure that the master cylinder is full.
2. Apply steady pressure on the brake pedal. Loosen the brake lines at the master cylinder.
Once solid fluid flow is obtained, tighten the brake lines.
3. It may be necessary to perform this procedure several times in order to obtain a solid flow of
fluid. The brake fluid level must be checked frequently during the bleeding procedure.
4. Attach a clear bleeder hose to the first wheel cylinder being bled. See the bleeding sequence
in Step 5, below. Put the other end of the bleeder hose into a container that is partially filled
with clean brake fluid. Be sure that the bleeder hose end is submerged in the brake fluid.
5. The brakes must be bled in the proper sequence to remove all of the air. The bleeding
sequence is: right rear first, left rear second, right front third, and left front last.
6. Slowly depress the brake pedal one time and hold it down. Open the bleeder screw on the
wheel cylinder that is being bled and examine the fluid flow. The bleeder screw cannot be
just cracked. It must be opened just enough to allow the fluid to flow and remove the trapped
air.
7. Close the bleeder screw once the fluid flow is free from air bubbles or when the pressure has
subsided. Close the bleeder screw then release the brake pedal. DO NOT release the brake
pedal before the bleeder screw is closed.
8. It may be necessary to perform this procedure several times in order to obtain a solid flow of
fluid. The brake fluid level must be checked frequently during the bleeding procedure. Bleed
the remaining wheel cylinders or calipers in the proper sequence. See Step 5 above.

4. Adjust the park brake cable length by turning the nuts on the cable where the cable passes
through the cable-mounting bracket.
5. Test the adjustment by putting the park brake lever into the fully applied position. The
tension on the cable should be enough to make the lever hesitate in its center position when
pulling the lever from the fully released position to the fully applied position.
3. Remove the three brake shoe return springs that are on the brake shoes to release the shoes
from the backing plate.
4. Put new park brake shoes on the backing plate and reattach the return springs to the brake
shoes.
5. Replace the brake drum lock-washers, and tighten the drum retaining nuts.
6. Rotate the adjustment knob on the park brake hand lever in a clockwise direction until it is
moderately tight.
7. Adjustments to the park brake should be made when it is in a fully released position. Test the
adjustment by applying the lever to set the brake. If the park brake holds an idling tractor that
is in gear, then it is set properly. If the park brake does not hold, then tighten the adjusting
knob further and perform this test again.
Use extreme caution when performing this test. A park brake that is not adjusted
properly can cause serious injury to people and serious damage to property.

If you don’t have any front end alignment equipment available, make a pair of Toe-In measuring
bars as specified in Figure 107. Make the bars from iron or mild steel.
Toe-In Measurement
Figure 108
Figure 110
4. Position the steering so that the bars are parallel with the tractor.
5. Measure the distance between the fronts of the bars (Distance A) and the backs of the bars
(Distance B).
• Toe-In = Distance A is less than Distance B. Toe-Out = A is greater than B
• The correct setting is between 0.0625 and.1875 inches (1.6 – 4.8 MM) of Toe-In.
Toe-In Adjustment
1. If the Toe-In is out of the
specified limits, loosen the Tie- 1 1

Tire Maintenance
1. Check the rim components for fatigue cracks periodically. Replace all cracked, badly worn,
damaged, and severely rusted components.
2. Clean and repaint the rims to stop the detrimental effects of corrosion. Use a filter on the tire
inflation equipment to remove moisture from the air. This will help prevent corrosion. Check
the filter periodically to make sure that it is working properly.
3. Double check all components to make sure that they are properly seated prior to inflation.
4. Never sit or stand in front of a tire and rim assembly that is being inflated. Use a clip-on
chuck and be sure that the inflation hose is long enough to permit the person inflating the tire
to stand to one side of the tire during inflation.
5. Do not rework, weld, heat, or braze any rim component that is cracked, broken, or damaged.
Replace damaged parts with new parts that are the same size, typo, and make.
6. Always put hardwood blocks under the jack when changing tires. It is not possible to visually
determine whether or not the ground is safe for the removal operation.
7. Wedge a block between the ground and the tire that is on the outer side of the tractor before
positioning jack. Always immobilize the tractor with blocks to prevent slippage and possible
injury.
8. Use bead breakers and rams to apply pressure to the bead flanges. Slant the bead breaker at
an angle of about 110 degrees to keep it firmly in place. Always stand to one side of the tire
when applying hydraulic pressure.
9. When using a cable or chain sting, stand clear of the tractor when a cable or chain sling is
being used to suspend the tractor, Serious injury or death may result if the cable or chain
snaps.
10. Inspect the tires and wheels regularly for cuts, breaks, alignment, and tightness of lug nuts.
Check the tires for proper inflation frequently.
11. The rear wheel assemblies are one piece with tubeless tires. The front wheel assemblies are
two piece with tires and inner tubes.
Never loosen the outer nuts or bolts (1) while the tire is inflated.
That could cause a sudden decompression and serious injury.

Transmission Identification
All automatic transmissions are equipped with high temperature resistant seals. This includes those seals
used on the manual and kickdown levers, the 0-rings and oil pan gasket. Under no conditions should older
design seals be used on the transmissions, except the regular service replacement of oil pan gasket, which is of
special leak prevention design. This should still be used.
Manual Linkage
Correct manual linkage adjustment is necessary to position the manual valve for proper fluid pressure
direction to the different transmission components.
Improperly adjusted manual linkage may cause cross-leakage and subsequent transmission failure. Refer to
Linkage Adjustments in Part 17-02, Shift Control Linkage for detailed manual linkage adjustment procedures.
Transmission Fluid Level Check
The automatic transmissions designed to operate with the fluid level between the 'add' and 'full' mark on
the dipstick, at an operating temperature of 65° C-76° C (150°-170° F) and should be checked under these
conditions. The operating temperatures may be obtained by driving 24-32 km (15-20 miles) of city type driving
with the outside temperature above 10° C (50° F).
If the Transmission is not at an operating temperature of 65°-76° C (150°-170° F) and it becomes necessary to
check the fluid level, the fluid may be checked at room temperature 21 °-35° C (70°-95° F). (Dipstick cool to
touch).
Room Temperature Fluid Level Checking Procedures
1. With transmission in Park, 'P' position, engine at curb idle RPM, foot brakes applied, and vehicle on level surface,
move transmission selector through each range, allowing time in each range to engage transmission. Return to Park,
'P' position, and apply parking brake.
2. Clean all dirt from the transmission fluid dipstick cap before removing the dipstick from the filler tube.
3. Pull the dipstick out of the tube, wipe it clean and push it all the way back in the tube. Be sure it is fully seated.
4. Pull the dipstick out of the filler tube again and check the fluid level. The level should be between the middle and top
holes of the dipstick. If the level is below the middle hole or above the top hole. Add or remove fluid to bring the level
between the middle hole and the top hole.
5. If it becomes necessary to add fluid to a transmission, be sure to use the correct fluid, as specified on the transmission
dipstick.
6. Install the dipstick, making sure it is fully seated in the tube.
If the transmission fluid level is correctly established at 21 °-35° C (70°-95° F), it will appear between the 'Add'
and 'Full' mark on the dipstick when the transmission reaches an operating temperature of 65°-70° C (150°-
170° F). Do not over-fill or under-fill.
Overfill can cause the fluid to foam and spill out through the transmission vent with resultant transmission
malfunction.
If the transmission fluid level is checked when the fluid is cold, the dipstick could indicate that fluid should
be added. If the fluid is added at this time, an overfill condition could result when the fluid reaches an operating
temperature of 65°-76° C (150°-170° F) (Dipstick hot to touch).
Transmission Fluid Condition Check
1. Make the normal fluid check according to the above procedure.
2. Observe color and odor of the fluid. It should be red not-brown, or black. A burnt odor can sometimes indicate that
there is an overheating condition or clutch disc or band failure.
3. Use an absorbent white paper (Kleenex, etc.) to wipe.the dipstick.: Examine the stain for evidence of solids (specks
of any kind) and for antifreeze signs (gum or varnish on dipstick).
When a converter drain plug leaks, remove the drain plug with a six-point wrench. Coat the threads with
Motorcraft Sealing Compound or equivalent and install the plug. Tighten the drain plug to specification as
listed at the end of this part. Fluid leakage from the converter housing may also be caused by engine oil
leaking past the rear main bearing, or from oil galley plugs, or power steering oil leakage from steering
system. Be sure to determine the exact cause of the leak before starting repair procedures.
Oil-soluble aniline or fluorescent dyes premixed at the rate of 1/2 teaspoon of dye powder to 0.23 liter
(1/2 pint) of transmission fluid have proven helpful in locating the source of fluid leakage. Such dyes may
be used to determine whether an engine oil or transmission fluid leak is present, or if the fluid in the oil
cooler leaks into the engine coolant system. A black light must be used with the fluorescent dye
solution.
Fluid Leakage in Converter Area
In diagnosing and correcting fluid leaks in the front pump and converter area, use the following
procedures to locate the exact cause of the leakage. Leakage at the front of transmission, evidenced
by fluid around the converter housing, may have several sources.
By careful observation, it is possible in many instances to pinpoint the source of the leak before
removing the transmission from the vehicle. The paths which the fluid takes to reach the bottom of
the converter housing are shown in Fig.2.
1. Fluid leaking by the front pump seal lip will tend to move along the drive hub and onto the
back of the impeller housing. Except in the case of a total seal failure, fluid leakage by the lip
of the seal will be deposited on the inside of the converter housing only, near the outside
diameter of the housing.
2. Fluid leakage by the outside diameter of the seal and front pump body will follow the same
path which the leaks by the front pump seal follow.
3. Fluid that leaks by a front pump-to-case bolt will be deposited on the inside of the converter
housing only. fluid will not be deposited on the back of the converter.
4. Leakage by the front pump-to-case gasket may cause fluid to be deposited inside the
converter housing, or it may seep down between the front of the case and converter housing.
5. Fluid leakage from the converter drain plugs will appear at the outside diameter of the
converter on the back face of the flywheel, and in the converter housing only near the
flywheel.
6. Converter-to-flywheel stud weld leak.
housing and front of the transmission case. Run the engine until fluid leakage is evident and
the probable source of leakage can be determined.
Converter Leakage Check
If welds on the torque converter indicate leakage, remove the converter and make the following check.
Assemble a Rotunda 72-0004 Torque Converter Leak Detector (Fig. 3) or an equivalent to the converter as
shown in Fig. 4. Test the converter for leaks following the directions supplied with the detector kit.
Engine Idle Speed Check
If the idle speed is too low, the engine will run roughly. An idle speed that is too high will cause the vehicle
to creep, have harsh engagements and harsh closed-throttle downshifts.
Check and, if necessary, adjust engine idle speed to specifications shown on the engine decal with the
headlights on, A/C turned off and transmission in drive range, using the procedure given in the appropriate
carburetor part in Group 24.
On vehicles equipped with an Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system, it is important to check the system
for proper operation and for a possible restricted condition.
Anti-Stall Dashpot Clearance Check
After the engine idle has been properly adjusted, check the ant-stall dashpot clearance. Follow the
procedure given in Group 24 for checking and adjusting this clearance.
1. Using the appropriate automatic transmission tester, attach the tachometer to the engine and the vacuum
gauge to the transmission vacuum line at the manifold vacuum port (Fig. 5).
2. Attach the pressure gauge to the control pressure outlet at the transmission (Figs. 6 and 7).
3. Firmly apply the parking brake and start the engine.
4. Adjust the engine idle speed to the specified rpm, using the carburetor idle adjustment screw. If the
engine idle speed cannot be brought within limits, check the throttle and downshift linkage for a binding
condition. If linkage is satisfactory, check for vacuum leaks in the transmission diaphragm unit (Fig. 8) and
its connecting tubes and hoses. Check all other vacuum operated units (such as the power brake) for
vacuum leaks. Refer to Brake-Section Group 12.
5. Refer to the two control pressure diagnostic guides in Fig.9 to show what components are inoperative when
the control pressure is not within specifications. Do not proceed with the main diagnosis guide until you
have made any repairs, as required, and the control pressure is within specifications as listed in the GM
3.0L Truck Performance Specifications book.
Vacuum Pump Method
Install the Automatic Transmission Tester. Disconnect and temporarily plug the vacuum line at the vacuum
diaphragm unit. Apply both the parking and service brakes. Start the engine and vacuum pump. Set the
vacuum at 15 inches, read and record the control pressure in all positions. Run the engine up to 1000 rpm, and
reduce the vacuum to 10 inches. Read and record the control pressure in D, 2 and 1. Keep the engine rpm at
1000 and reduce the vacuum to 1 inch. Read and record the control pressure in D, 1, 2 and R.
Refer to the two control pressure diagnostic guides in Fig. 9 to show what components are inoperative when
the control pressure test is not within specifications. Do not proceed with the main diagnosis guide until you have
made any repairs, as required, and the control pressure is within specifications as listed in the GM 3.0L Truck
Performance Specifications book.
Vacuum Supply Test
The vacuum supply to the vacuum diaphragm unit and the diaphragm itself must be checked. To check the
supply, disconnect the vacuum line at the diaphragm unit and connect it to a vacuum gauge. With the engine
idling,
the gauge must have a steady acceptable vacuum reading for the altitude at which the test is being performed. If the
vacuum reading is low, check for a vacuum leak or poor engine vacuum. If the vacuum reading is OK, rapidly
accelerate the engine momentarily. The vacuum reading must drop rapidly at acceleration and return
immediately upon release of the accelerator. If the vacuum reading does not change or changes slowly, the
transmission vacuum line is plugged, restricted or connected to a reservoir supply. Correct as required.
Vacuum Diaphragm Test-On Vehicle
To check the vacuum diaphragm unit, start the vacuum pump and set the regulator knob so that the vacuum
gauge reads 18 inches with the end of the vacuum hose blocked. Then connect the vacuum hose to the diaphragm
unit. If the gauge still reads 18 inches, the vacuum diaphragm is not leaking. If the reading does not remain at 18
inches, but drops, the vacuum diaphragm is leaking. Replace the vacuum diaphragm unit. Also, if automatic
transmission fluid is present in the vacuum side of the diaphragm or in the vacuum hose, the diaphragm is
leaking and must be replaced.
Stall Test
Refer to Fig. 11.
Start the engine to allow it to reach normal operating temperature. Apply both the parking and service brakes
while stepping on the accelerator to reach the specified rpm for the stall test.
The stall test is made in D (DRIVE), 1 (FIRST) or R (REVERSE) at full throttle to check engine
performance, converter clutch operation or installation, and the holding ability of the forward clutch, reverse-high
clutch and low-reverse band or low-reverse clutch, and the gear train one-way clutch.
FIG. 10, deleted
Do not hold the throttle open for more than five seconds at a time while making this test.
Caution
CAUTION
Place the transmission in manual 2, no load on the engine and apply 10 inches of vacuum to the
vacuum diaphragm unit. Increase the speed slowly and watch the speedometer. Check the mph at which
the control pressure cutback occurs. It should occur between 8-16 km (5-10 mph).
Decrease the vacuum at the vacuum diaphragm to 0.2 inches. Repeat the check. Control pressure
cutback should occur between 24-40 km (15-25 mph).
The governor is good if the cutback occurs within these specifications. If the cutback does not occur
within specifications, check shift speeds to verify that it is the governor and not a stuck cutback
valve, then repair or replace the governor.
Transmission Fluid Cooler Flow Check
The linkage, fluid level and control pressure must be within specifications before performing this
flow check. Remove the transmission dipstick from the filler tube.
Place a funnel in the transmission filler tube. Raise the vehicle, remove the cooler return line from its
fitting in the case. Attach a hose to the cooler return line and fasten the free end of the hose in the
funnel installed in the filler tube.
Start the engine and set idle speed at 1000 rpm with the transmission in neutral.
Observe the fluid flow at the funnel. When the flow is "solid" (air bleeding has been completed), the
flow should be liberal. If there is not a liberal flow at 1000 rpm in neutral, low pump capacity, main
circuit system leakage, or cooler system restriction is indicated.
To separate transmission trouble from cooler system trouble, observe the flow at the transmission
case converter-out fitting.

Check the minimum throttle up shifts in D (DRIVE). The transmission should start in first gear, shift to second,
and then shift to third, within the shift points listed in the GM 3.0L Truck Performance Specifications book.
With the transmission in third gear, depress the accelerator pedal through the detent (to the floor) The
transmission should shift from third to second or third to first, depending on the vehicle speed.
Check the closed throttle downshift from third to first by coasting down from about 24 km (15 mph) in third
gear. The shift should occur within the limits listed in the Specifications.
When the selector lever is at 2 (SECOND), the transmission can operate only in second gear.
With the transmission in third gear and road speed over 24 km (15 mph) the transmission should shift to
second gear when the selector lever is moved from D (DRIVE) to 2 (SECOND) to 1 (FIRST). This check will
determine if the governor pressure and shift control valves are functioning properly.
The transmission will downshift from second or third to first gear when this same manual shift is made below
approximately 24 km (15 mph) with a C-6 transmission.
Shift Test
A shift test can be performed to check shift valve operation, governor circuits, shift delay pressures, throttle
boost and downshift valve action.
Raise the vehicle with an axle or frame hoist so that the rear wheels are clear of the floor. Disconnect and
plug the vacuum line to the vacuum diaphragm unit. Connect the line from the distributor tester vacuum pump
to the vacuum diaphragm unit.
1. To check the shift valves and governor circuits, apply 18 inches of vacuum to the transmission vacuum
diaphragm unit. Place the transmission in Drive and make a minimum throttle 1-2 and 2-3 shift test. At the
point of shift you will see the speedometer needle make a momentary surge and feel the driveline bump.
If the shift points are within specifications, the 1-2 and 2-3 shift valves and governor are OK. If the shift
points are not within specifications, perform a "Governor Check" to isolate the problem.
NOTE: After each test, move the selector lever to neutral and run the engine at 1000 rpm
to cool the transmission.
2. To check the shift delay pressures and throttle boost, decrease the vacuum at the vacuum diaphragm to 0-2
inches. Make a 1-2 shift test. If the shift point raises to specifications, the throttle boost and shift delay
systems are functioning.
NOTE: After each test, move the selector lever to neutral and run the engine at 1000 rpm
to cool the transmission.
To check downshift valve action, leave the vacuum to the vacuum diaphragm at 0-2 inches. Position the
downshift linkage in the wide open throttle position (through the detent) and repeat the 1-2 shift test. The speed
at the shift point should be higher.
Forced Downshifts
With the transmission in high gear depress the accelerator pedal to the floor. The transmission should
downshift depending on vehicle road speed.
Closed Throttle Down-Shifts
Closed throttle down-shifts should be extremely difficult to detect. It may be necessary to attach pressure
gauges to the forward and direct clutch pressure taps (Fig. 8) in order to detect 4-3 and 3-2 coast-down shifts.
With gauges attached a 4-3 coast (closed throttle), down-shift is signified by the application of the forward
clutch and 3-2 coast down-shift is signified by the release of the direct clutch. A 2-1 coast down-shift should be
unperceivable. The coast down-shifts should occur within the limits set forth in the GM 3.0L Truck
Performance Specifications book.
When the shift selector is in manual low (1) the transmission can operate only in first gear.
When the shift selector is moved from (D) to the manual low (1) position, the transmission will down-shift
into first gear.
The overdrive band is applied when the transmission is in manual second. The low-reverse band is applied in
manual-low.
In Shop
A shift test can be performed in the shop to check shift valve operation, governor circuits, shift delay
pressures, throttle boosts and down-shift valve action.
Raise the vehicle with an axle or frame hoist so that the rear wheels are clear of the floor. Disconnect and
plug the vacuum line to the vacuum diaphragm unit. Connect the line from the distributor tester vacuum pump
to the vacuum diaphragm unit.
1. To check the shift valves and governor circuits, apply 18 inches of vacuum to the transmission
vacuum diaphragm unit. Place the transmission in Drive and make a minimum throttle 1-2. At the
shift points you will see the speedometer needle make a momentary surge and feel the driveline bump.
If the shift points are within specification, the 1-2 and 2-3 shift valves and governor are OK.
If the shift points are not within specification, perform a Governor Check to isolate the problem.
Note: After each test, move the selector lever to Neutral, run the engine at 1000 rpm to
cool the transmission.
2. To check the shift delay pressures and throttle boost, decrease the vacuum at the vacuum diaphragm
to 0-2 inches. Make a 1-2 shift test. If the shift point raises to specification, the throttle boost and shift
delay systems are functioning.
NOTE: After each test, move the selector lever to Neutral, run the engine at 1000 rpm to
cool the transmission.
3. To check downshift valve action, leave the vacuum to the vacuum diaphragm at 0-2 inches. Position
the downshift linkage in the wide open throttle position (through the detent) and repeat the 1-2 shift
test. The speed at the shift point should be higher.
To make the air pressure checks, drain the transmission fluid and remove the oil pan and the control valve
body assembly. The inoperative clutches or bands can be located by introducing air pressure into the various
transmission case passages (Figs. 12, 13 and 14).
Forward Clutch
Apply air pressure to the transmission case forward clutch or front clutch passages (Fig. 12). A dull thud can
be heard when the clutch piston is applied. If no noise is heard, place the fingertips on the input shell and again
apply air pressure to the forward or front clutch passage. Movement of the piston can be felt as the clutch is
applied.
Governor
Apply air pressure to the control pressure to governor passage (Figs. 12, 13 or 14) and listen for a sharp
clicking or whistling noise. The noise indicates governor valve movement.
Reverse-High Clutch
Apply air pressure to the reverse-high clutch (Figs. 12, 13, or 14.) A dull thud indicates that the reverse-high
or rear clutch piston has moved to the applied position. If no noise is heard, place the fingertips on the clutch
drum and again apply air pressure to detect movement of the piston.
Intermediate Servo
Hold the air nozzle in the front servo apply tube or the intermediate servo apply passages (Figs. 12 or 13).
Operation of the servo is indicated by a tightening of the front or intermediate band around the drum on C-6
Transmissions. Continue to apply air pressure to the servo apply tube or passage, and introduce air pressure into
the front release tube or the intermediate servo release pressure. The front or intermediate servo should release
the band against the apply pressure.
Low-Reverse Servo
Apply air pressure to the low-reverse servo (Figs. 12 or 13).
If the servos do not operate, disassemble, clean, and inspect them to locate the source of the trouble.
If air pressure applied to either of the clutch passages fails to operate a clutch or operates both clutches at
once, remove, and with air pressure, check the fluid passages in the case and front pump to detect
obstructions.
Low-Reverse Clutch
Apply air pressure to the low-reverse clutch apply passage (Fig. 14). A dull thud should be heard if the
clutch is operating properly. If the passages are clear, remove the clutch assemblies, and clean and inspect the
malfunctioning clutch to locate the trouble.

4. Inspect the compositions clutch plates, steel clutch
5. plates and clutch pressure plate for worn or scored bearing surfaces. Replace all parts that are deeply
scored.
6. Check the clutch hub splines.
Converter and Oil Cooler
When internal wear or damage has occurred in the transmission, metal particles, clutch plate material or
band material may have been carried into the converter and oil cooler. These contaminants are a major cause of
recurring transmission troubles and MUST be removed from the system before the transmission is put back into
service.
Whenever a transmission has been disassembled to replace worn or damaged parts or because the valve
body sticks from foreign material, the converter and oil cooler MUST be cleaned by using the Rotundra torque
Converter Cleaner (model 140028) or equivalent. Under NO circumstances should an attempt be made to clean
converters by hand agitation with solvent.
Pinion Carriers
Individual parts of the planet carriers are not serviceable.
Check the pins and shafts in the planet assemblies for loose fit and/or complete disengagement. Use a new
planet assembly if either condition exists. Before installing a planet assembly, the shaft retaining pins should
be checked for adequate staking. If necessary, restake the pins before installation. When restaking, the
retaining pins must not be driven into the carrier any further than 1.01 mm (0.040 inch) below the surface
of the
Fig. 23, Roller Type Planetary Clutch, Carrier and Center Support - Automatic Overdrive Transmissions
2. Inspect the pinion gears for damaged or excessively worn teeth.
3. Check for free rotation of the pinion gears.
Stator Support
1. Inspect the stator support splines for burrs and wear.
2. Check the oil ring grooves in the stator support for nicks, burrs or damaged edges.
Case
Inspect the case for cracks and stripped threads. Inspect the gasket surfaces and mating surfaces for burrs.
Check the vent for obstructions, and check all fluid passages for obstructions and leakage. (Figs. 13, 14, and
15).
Inspect the case bushing for scores. Check all parking linkage parts for wear or damage.
If a transmission case thread is damaged, service kits may be purchased from local jobbers. To repair a
damaged thread, the following procedures should be carefully followed.
1. Drill out the damaged threads using the same drill size as the thread outside diameter. For example, use
a 5/16 inch drill for a 5/16-18 thread.
2. Select the proper special tap and tap the drilled hole. The tap is marked for the size of the thread being
repaired. Thus, the special tap marked 5/16-18 will not cut the same thread as a standard 5/16-18 tap. It
does not cut a thread large enough to accommodate the insert, and after the insert is installed, the original
thread size (5/16-18) is restored.
3. Select the proper coil inserting tool. These tools are marked with the thread size being repaired. Place the
insert on the tool and adjust the sleeve to the length of the insert being used. Press the insert against the face
of the tapped hole. Turn the tool clockwise and wind the insert into the hole until the insert is 1/2 turn
below the face.
4. Working through the insert, bend the insert fang straight up and down until it breaks off at the notch.
Improperly installed inserts can be removed with the extractor tool. Place the extractor tool in the insert
with the blade resting against the top coil 1/4 to 1/2 turn away from the end of the coil. Tap the tool sharply
with a hammer until the blade cuts into the insert. Exert downward pressure on the tool and turn it
counterclockwise until the insert is removed.

The first line on the tag shows the transmission model prefix and suffix. A number appearing after the suffix
indicates that the internal parts in the transmission have been changed after initial production start-up. For
example, a PGD-BN model transmission that has been changed internally would read PGD-BN1. Both
transmissions are basically the same, but some service parts in the PGD-BN transmission are slightly different
than the PGD-BN1 transmission. Therefore, it is important that the codes on the transmission
identification tag be checked when ordering parts or making inquiries about the transmission.
The hydraulic control system schematic is shown in Fig. 4. The converter housing and the fixed splines which
engage the splined outside diameter of the low-reverse clutch steel plates, are both cast integrally into the case.
Only one (intermediate) band is used in the C-6 transmission. This, along with the forward clutch, is used to
obtain intermediate gear.
To check end play, exert force on checking tool to compress turbine to cover thrust washer wear plate. Set
indicator at zero.
Adjustments
The only adjustment on the transmission is the
intermediate band.
To prevent damage to the transmission and to assure
proper band adjustment, it is essential that the tools and
procedures described here are used whenever the band is
adjusted.
