1990/11/01 Testing And Adjusting (SENR3256-02)

SMCS - SENR32560001

Important Information

When tests and adjustments are made to the transmission or the


torque converter, the parking brake must be OFF. To prevent
movement of the machine and personal injury do the procedure
thatfollows.

xwarne
1. Lower the bulldozer and ripper to the ground.

2. Put blocks in front of and behind the tracks.

3. Let only approved personnel on the machine and keep all other personnel off the machine and in clear view of the operator.

4. When testing must be done in a closed area and whenever possible, activate the service brakes if the parking brake can not be used.

NOTE: All tests and adjustments must be made with the oil in the power train hydraulic system at normal temperature of operation. Be sure the
linkage adjustments are correct before tests are made.

Procedure For Adjustment Of Transmission Control Linkage
1. Position shift lever (14) as shown in View A-A (centered in slot)

2. Position lever (9) at transmission valve for speed control in neutral (shown in detail C) and adjust rod (16) for free fit of bolt in lever(18).

3. Position lever (10) at transmission valve for direction control in forward (shown in detail C) and adjust rod (15) to obtain a free fit of bolt in
lever(17).

Procedure For Adjustment Of Parking Brake


NOTE: While the Type 1 and Type 2 linkages look somewhat different, the adjustment procedures are the same.

1. With parking brake lever (4) located as shown in the brake ON position (lever down), adjust rod (2) until end fits freely in lever(4).

2. Tighten locknut on rod (2) to a torque of ... 5 ± 0.5 Nꞏm (4 ± .5 lb ft).

3. Adjust rod assembly (5) to the specified length. Install the adjusted rod assembly.

NOTE: Do not change the length of rod assembly (5) in further adjustments.

4. Disconnect rod assembly (8) at its upper end.

5. Pull up on lever (13) until lever (13) is at its highest point (detents fully depressed). Do not stretch spring can on rod (8) if so equipped. Adjust the
length of rod assembly (8) until pin fits freely through upper rod end (7). Then turn upper rod end (7) down two full turns (shorten) and install rod
assembly (8).

6. To check parking brake adjustment, install a 0 to 4000 kPa (0 to 600 psi) pressure gauge on either the right or left brake pressure tap.

7. Start the engine and run it at low idle.

8. With parking brake lever (4) in the brake ON position (lever down), the pressure gauge must read less than 300 kPa (44 psi). If the pressure is
not less than 300 kPa (44 psi), make rod assembly (8) shorter and check the pressure again.

9. Rotate parking brake lever (4) to the brake OFF position (lever up). The pressure gauge must read 2750 ± 150 kPa (400 ± 22 psi). If the
pressure reading is low, make rod assembly (8) longer and check the pressure again.
10. After adjusting the linkage in Steps 7 and 8, attach a 0 to 4000 kPa (0 to 600 psi) gauge to the P1 pressure tap on the transmission. With the
engine running at low idle, move parking brake lever from brake ON to brake OFF (full lever travel each way). The P1 pressure should read exactly
the same with the parking brake ON or OFF.

11. If the P1 pressure is not the same with the parking brake ON as it is with the parking brake OFF, the parking brake valve is leaking oil and the
linkage must be adjusted further using the following instructions:

a. If P1 with the parking brake OFF is less than P1 with the parking brake ON, lengthen rod assembly (8).

b. If P1 with the parking brake ON is less than P1 with the parking brake OFF, shorten rod assembly (8).

12. If linkage adjustments are made in Step 10, repeat the pressure checks in Steps 7, 8, and 9. Readjust as necessary until all pressures are met.

Linkage For Steering Clutch And Brake And Foot Brake Controls
Steering clutch and brake control linkage adjustments should be
made only with the engine OFF. Accidental disengagement of

sudden machine movement and personal injury.

platform opening (2).

3. Adjust bumpers (4) in order to obtain a gap of 1.0 mm + 1.0 mm - 0.5 mm (0.04 inch + 0.04 inch - 0.02 inch) between the bumpers and clutch
levers (1).

1. Assemble brake pedal (4) on shaft so that front edge of pedal tread plate is 146 mm (5.75 in) above the floor plate. This will be one spline tooth
down from position where timing mark on shaft is aligned with centerline of slot in pedal.

2. Install rod assembly (8) after it has been adjusted to correct length.

3. Disconnect rod assembly (12) from lever (11).

4. Rotate lever (11) counterclockwise (toward the front of the tractor) until resistance is felt.

5. Adjust the length of rod assembly (12) to obtain a free fit in lever (11).

6. Push the brake pedal down until lever (11) stops.

7. With the brake pedal fully pushed down, adjust bolt (6) until the head contacts the brake pedal.

8. Release the brake pedal, and turn bolt (6) an additional 1/2 turn out. Tighten locknut (7).

NOTE: To bring pedal closer to operator, align timing mark on shaft with centerline of slot in pedal. This will give dimension (B) of 176 mm (6.9 in)
