The shift lever has four shift stations. These shift
stations correspond to the four ranges provided .
Within each of these ranges are high, low, and re-
verse gears which are selected by the H-L-R lever
located on the battery box. By using the H-L-R lever,
the operator can "down-shift" from high to low in or-
der to gain additional power, or can shift from low to
high to increase travel speed. Shifting is also con-
venient between forward and reverse when " shut-

The H-L-R lever is used to shift into high, low, or

3. Lights The shift lever has four shift stations. These shift
stations correspond to the four ranges provided.
Within each of these ranges are high, low, and re-
verse gears which are selected by the H-L-R lever
located on the battery box. By using the H-L-R lever,
the operator can " down-shift" from high to low in or-
der to gain additional power, or can shift from low to
high to increase travel speed. Shifting is also conve-
nient between forward and reverse when "shuttling"
the crawler.

The H-L- R lever is used to shift into high, low, or


reverse gear within the range set by the shift lever.
Note the shift pattern. This lever is used for fast
"down-shift" or "shuttling" of the crawler as during
loading and dozer work.

The H-L- R lever may be locked in neutral by en-

When operating track in conditions where extreme


soil packing occurs in track system, check track ten-
sion often as tens ion may increase whe n soil is
picked up. Also check coils of recoil springs. Mud
packing in the recoil spring can cause restriction of
the idler travel and recoil action. This restriction can
result in overstressing the track link assemblies, re-
coil mechanism, and final drive components.

IMPORTANT: When forward edge of track front


bracket is approximately 1-inch [25.4 mm] from
the end of the track frame, track bushings and
pins should be inspected for excessive wear. Re-
place excessively worn bushing and pins as
needed. When the forward edge of the front idler

Most service procedures on the engine can be ac-
complished with the engine in the unit. If the crank-
shaft is to be removed or in event of a general
overhaul, remove the engine as follows:

Detach H-L-R oil filter base from inside of grille


housing. Remove hood and grille housing.

Disconnect all the necessary wiring, linkage and


lines from both sides of the engine.

Disconnect radiator hoses and remove radiator


(see Group 20 of this section) and hydraulic pump
(see Group 10, Section 50) with support as a unit.

Be sure that oil hole in upper idler gear is open.

Check both idler gears for excessive end play.


New part end play should be 0.0010 to 0.0070 inch
[0.0254 to 0. 1778 mm). A maximum 0.0150 inch
[0.381 mm) end play is acceptable.

Measure I.D. of bushing and O.D. of shaft to deter-


mine oil clearance of 0.0015 to 0.0035 inch [0.0381
to 0.0889 mm). A maximum 0.0061 inch [0.1524

Dirty air entering the air cleaner flows first past the
filter fins which separate dirt from the air and deposit
the dirt in the dust cup. Air is filtered when it passes
through the filter element before flowing to the en-
gine.

A pre-cleaner (Fig. 2) may also be included in the


air intake system. Its purpose is to stop any large dirt
particles from entering the system.

A restriction indicator (Fig. 3) may be installed to


warn the operator whenever excessive restriction is
present in the air intake system.

The turbocharger is located on the top left of the


engine. It pressurizes the air coming from the air
cleaner and delivers it to the intake manifold. 1- Pre-Cieaner 15-Ciamp*

CHARGING SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATION The rotor assembly consists of a wire coil wrapped
around an iron core and mounted on a rotating shaft.
The coil is enclosed between two interlocking soft
iron sections. The ends of the coil are connected to
two slip rings mounted on one end of the shaft.
Small brushes ride on the slip rings.

The rotor turns on sealed ball bearings that contain


lubrication for the life of the bearing.

The stator assembly is a laminated soft iron ring


with three groups of coils or windings in the slots.
Each group is made up of from eight to sixteen coils,
depending on the design.

One end of each stator winding is connected to a


positive and negative diode. The other ends of the
stator windings are wye connected.

To convert the a.c . to d.c . cu rrent, diodes are


used. Six diodes are mounted at the slip ring end of
the alternator housing. Three negative diodes are
mounted in the rear housing. Three positive diodes
are mounted in the heat sink which is insulated from
the rear housing .

To understand the diodes, first remember these

ENGINE CLUTCH ASSEMBLV
GENERAL INFORMATION
The clutch mechanism is located on the rear of the
engine flywheel and is enclosed by the clutch hous- ~y- ..
ing (Fig. 1). A pedal mechanically controls the clutch
throw-out bearing which engages or disengages the
driven disk by means of a spring-loaded pressure
'
'
'

plate. An 11-inch driven disk is used.

Partially depressing the clutch pedal stops tractor


motion but does not stop powershaft rotation. Thus
"live power" is available at all times for PTO or winch
drive operations.

When the clutch pedal is depressed, clamping ac-


tion of the pressure plate is released , allowing the
clutch driven disk to stop rotating with the pressure
plate and flywheel. This is the disengaged position.

When the clutch pedal is released, coil springs


within the pressure plate mechanism act against the
pressure plate disk and clamp the friction surfaces of
the driven disk between the pressure plate and the
clutch surface of the flywheel. This causes the clutch
driven disk to rotate with the pressure plate assembly
and flywheel, thereby transmitting engine power to
the transmission. This is the engaged position.

Clutch and clutch control linkages have been so


designed that minor adjustment of the clutch is made T 20 9 6 2

the clutch is engaged. The H-L-R transmission "live
power" operation is provided by partially depressing
the clutch, stopping tractor motion but not stopping
power to the powershaft.

3. Pinion Shaft Bearing Preload Adjustment


Pinion shaft must have a preload (0.003 to
0.005-in. [0.0762 to 0.1270 mm]). This preload is ob-
tained by varying the number of shims behind the
front bearing cone. Refer to Fig. 36, for parts identifi-
cation and sequence of assembly.

To establish preload on pinion shaft, proceed as


follows:

Install bearing cup (4) and snap ring (5) in front


wall of speed change compartment. Position shim
pack (16), bearing cup (1 7), and bearing cone (18).

Install pinion shaft and one gear (as a means of


holding shaft from turning). Position spacer (7) on
front of shaft with chamfered edge of hole against
shoulder of shaft with locating pin in pinion shaft in-
dexed in slot on spacer. A "pip" mark on threaded

Install the left bearing quill with enough shims to


obtain a measurable amount of end play.

The measured end play plus 0.002-inch [0.0508

POWER TAKE-OFF AND WINCH DRIVE
GENERAL INFORMATION Pulling the PTO control lever to the rear moves the
powershaft drive gear rearward into mesh wit h
splines on the front shaft. Power is picked up from
the powershaft drive gear by the powershaft driven
gear which turns the powershaft. The engine clutch
must be fully disengaged before powershaft can be
engaged or disengaged by the lever. The powershaft
drive gears and bearings are lubricated by oil in the
transmission reservoir.

REMOVAL
Remove drain plug from transmission case and
drain the entire case.

Remove engine from clutch housing as instructed,

The front drive shaft carries the powershaft drive
gear which is in constant mesh with the powershaft
driven gear. A shifter fork controlled by the PTO con-
trol lever moves the drive gear internal splines in and

MISCELLANEOUS HYDRAULIC COMPONENTS
RESERVOIR AND FILTERS

General Information
The hydraulic reservoir is the sump area for the
hydraulic functions and is pressurized to keep out dirt
and to hold pressure for positive flow to the pump.

The hydraulic system filtering unit consists of a re-


turn line filter element that filters the oil as it returns
to the reservoir.

Should the return line filter become plugged, a


valve at the top of the reservoir allows oil to bypass
the filter and enter the reservoir.

Removal ©>---10
Remove the filter cap (4, Fig. 1) to remove the re-
turn line filter.

Repair
Replace the return line filter at the service periods
o-Il@>-12
outlined in the operator's manual. Also replace return
line filter when major service work is performed on
the crawler hydraulic components. 13

TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER


AND FILTER

General Information
Transmission oil is pumped through a pressure
regulating valve to engage the H-L-R clutches, lubri-
cate the transmission , and to the oil cooler and filter.
Oil from the filter then goes to lubricate the transmis-
sion.

As the H-L-R clutch engages and oil is no longer


demanded, a larger volume of oil is diverted through
the oil cooler and filter.

If the oil filter clogs, a relief valve opens allowing


oil to bypass the filter and return directly to the lub-
ricating circuit.

Special Welding Instructions


A low hydrogen {with iron powder) electrode
(American Welding Society, Series E7018) is recom-
mended for this type of work. The sizes most easily
hand led in horizontal or out of flat positions are
5/32-inch [3.97 mm] and 3/16-inch [4.76 mm] diam-
eters.

To obtain maximum strength, it is imperative that

IMPORTANT: When repairing a small section of Fig. 8-Multi-Purpose Bucltet


the cutting edge, it is necessary to preheat
around damaged area regardless of the electrode
used. This will prevent rapid cooling of the edge
around the weld which could cause the cutting
edge to become brittle.

When cutting edge is cracked, cut completely

Place a short piece of pipe (1) around the tapered


bushing (4). Lay a piece of steel plate (3) with a hole
in the center over the pipe (1 ). Insert a long cap
screw (2) through the hole in the steel plate (3).

IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the threads in


the tapered pin, be sure several threads of the
cap screw are engaged sufficiently before apply-
ing force.

failure may be due to a weak battery. Another reason
for failure could be broken, disconnected or loose
leads or corroded connections.

Therefore, both a visual and an electrical check


should be made to isolate trouble before removing
any unit, otherwise a component may be removed
needlessly, only to find it is not the cause of cranking
failure.

Always use accurate electrical test equipment


when making electrical tests. Faulty equipment will
prevent the servicemen from doing thoroug h work
and may damage the electrical system.

Before you start the circuit tests, quickly review the


precautions on page 70, 15-4 and make the following
checks:

1. Check battery electrolyte level.

the starting motor. If the solenoid switch contacts
close, and the switch begins to "chatter" an open cir-

Checking Control Valve for leaks


After long use, the valve spools may become
worn, allowing oil to leak past them . Check the valve
leaks as follows:

NOTE: Use loaded bucket to perform checks on


crawler loader machines.

1. Raise the function a few feet off the ground and


shut off the engine. Disconnect the return line be-
tween control valve and reservoir.

2. If the function settles because of valve spool

line. Connect the return line and lower the blade to
the ground.

Checking Pump Efficiency


Check oil lines, control valve and cylinders before
checking the pump. To obtain correct timing, the hy-
draulic oil should be at normal operating temperature
and the engine at fast idle.

Check cycle times with a stop watch and refer to


Specifications for correct times.

If the cycle times are above the maximum times


given in specifications. the pump is probably faulty

The loader boom is attached to the loader frame
with eccentric pins, making several boom ad just-
ments available .

By turning the eccentric pins so the offset portion


of one is facing forward and the other facing to the
rear, approximately 1/2 inch [12.7 mm] of side ad-
justment is possible.

NOTE: A lesser degree of adjustment is possible


by turning the pins so the offset portions are only 90
degrees apart instead of 180 degrees.

The eccentric pins are in a neutral position when


the low side of the pins are in the down position.

To adjust the boom, proceed as follows:
