Track Tension-Check
1. Inspection
Stop the machine on level ground(stop with the
transmission in FORWARD without applying the
brake).Then place a straight bar on the track
shoes between the carrier roller and the idler
gear. Measure the clearance between the bar
and the grouser at the midpoint. If the clearance
is 20 to 30mm , the tension is standard.
2. Adjustment

(1) Pump in grease through the grease fitting
with a grease pump.
(2) To check that the correct tension has been
achieved, move the machine backwards and
forwards.
(3) Check the track tension again, and if the
tension is not correct, adjust it again.
(4) Continue to pump in grease until S becomes
0mm. If the track is still loose, the pin and
bushing are excessively worn, so they must
be either turned or replaced. Please contact
with your liugong dealer.
WARNING: Do not loosen lubricator for
one turn. Do not loosen any part other than
the lubricator. Furthermore, do not bring your
face in front of the grease fitting.
3. Check and tighten track shoe bolts
If the track shoe bolts which are used to secure
the track shoes are loose, the track shoe will
break, so tighten any loose bolts immediately.
(1) Tighten the track shoe bolts to 400 士 40N·
m.Then ensure the nut and shoe are in close
contact with the link contact surface.
(2) After checking, tighten a further 120" 士 10.
4. Reverse and replace the end bits and cutting
edges
Reverse or replace the end bits and cutting
edges before it is worn out to the blade end. If
both sides of the cutting edge are worn, then
replace the cutting edge.

serveral hours then tighten the nut.
Other Components-Adjust
1. Steereing brake
(1) Inspection
If the brake disc is worn, the brake pedal stroke
will increase, which will bring difficulty to steering
operation. If the pedal stroke exceeds
190mm(brake force is losing), then adjust as
belows: standard stroke110~130mm, the brake
force is 150N when the engine runs at idle
speed, stroke when the engine stops:75mm.
(2) Adjustment
Remove the rear cover and check. Adjust the
adjusting bolt to 50N·m until the brake disc
contacts witch the brake drum tightly.(Depress
down the brake pedal to ensure).Then turn the
adjusting bolt for 6/7 turn counterclockwise.
Make sure the two brake pedals have same
stroke, otherwise the brake performance could
be affected. Contact with liugong dealer for
replacing the brake band if the adjusting bolt size
is small than 71mm.
2. Idler gear
62
Maintenance Manual
Maintenance Interval Schedule

Since the idlers are forced to move forward and

backward by an external force, then the guide
plates will be worn out. Wear of these plates will
cause the vibration of idlers from side to side or
inclination of the idlers, and running off of track
links from the idlers or unevenly worn idler and
links may result.
(1) Move the machine by 1 to 2 m on a level
place, then measure clearance bewteen the (2) Measure the outer diameter of track roller

Important Maintenance Procedures
Precautions for Assembly
and Disassembly
Disassembly
1. Read the operation manual before
disassembling any components.
2. Pay attention to the direction and position
when disassembling. Remember the
disassembling orders.
3. Use the tools correctly. The tools must be
special used for disassembling. Use similar
tools instead if the special tools are not
available.
4. Never disassemble those parts which are
tapered or fit tightly. If these parts are loose,
check them for wear condit ion.
5. Clean the disassembled parts and put them
together. Keep them from dust. Use two
kinds of detergent:: one is for the
contaminants, the other is for cleaning.
NOTICE: Filter, magnetic plug and
breather cap must be paid special attention
when cleaning.
Assembly
1. Clean all of the parts before assembling.
Wipe off the anti-rust agent on new parts
before assembling.
2. Generally, it needs to use special tools to
assemble the bearing, bushing, seals and so
on. It is not recommended to strike the parts
into the mounting position, place a choke a
metal if it really needs to do so.
3. Spring washer, flat washer, tongue washer,
cotter pin etc. are important parts. But they
can be missed quite easily when assembling
Check whether the locking method for these
parts are corret when mounting the fasteners
like bolts and nuts.
66
Maintenance Manual
Precautions for Assembly and Disassembly

4. Use torque spanner when there is a specific

torque limit. Tighten the bolts especially on
covers slowly and evenly.

Assembly and Disassembly for

Bearing

1. Keep the bearings from dust because dust

can bring damage to bearing and deteriorate
the grease. Open the bearing package after
all the parts have been mounted.
2. Use gasoline as detergent for bearing, or use
kerosene oil or diesel oil to clean, the blow
with compressed air.
3. The mounting position of the bearing must be
correct. The bearing must be pressed tightly
to the bearing seat to reduce the excessive
clearance.

Installation of Oil Seals

1. When installing the seals,the seals edge

must be installed inwards to improve the oil
protection ability.
2. The seals must be pressed tightly to the oil
seal seat.
3. Coat a layer of grease onto the seal edge
before instaling the seals.
4. Use to guide tube when installing the
seals,(see picture A ), if a guide tube is not
available, use a brass bib (see picture B)
instead.
5. Method for pressing the oil seals into the
seat:: use a special tool, apply an even force
to the oil seal surface, the diameter of the
tool must be 0.5~1mm less than that of the
seat hole.(See picture C)

Work principle of fuel system

1. Fuel injector Because the fuel goes to the throttle shaft

2. Air inlet pipe
3. Fuel pump
4. Fule filter
5. Fuel tank
6. Check valve
When the engine is working, the crankshaft will
rotate to drive the fuel pump (3) to rotate
toghether. Main shaft (24) will drive gear pump
(9), speed controller fly ball (2) and shaft of
speedometer to rotate.
Fuel from fuel tank (5) flows through fuel filter (4)
then goes into the fuel pump(3).
Fuel from gear pump (9)is filtered through
strainer (19) , then it will flow through the speed
controller to throttle shaft (18). When the engine
is idling, fuel will flow through the idling port on
the speed controller sleeve to the throttle shaft
(18) , outputs from the throttle valve (4)on fuel
pump and inputs to oil injector (1).
through main passage and idling passage,
therefore, when the engine is idling, the main
passage is closed, only the idling passage can
supply oil. When the engine increase speed, the
ilding passage will close and the main passage
supplies oil. This is achieved by the VS speed
controller.
All the fuel that flows to fuel injector will be
injected to the air cylinder combustion chamber
throught the orifice.
After injection is finished, the piston will stop for
a while, then partial fuel will return back to the
fuel tank, meanwhile, the fuel injector can be
cooled down.
Because the oil supply capacity is decided by the
oil supply pressure and oil injecting time,
therefore, this fuel system is also called PT fuel
system.

Steering Clutch
The steering clutch is located inside the rear axle
, on the left and right with one for each. It is used
to connect or cut off the power delivered from the
center power train to the final drive so that the
machine can dirve forward, reverse, turn and
park and so on.
The steering clutch consists of inner drum , outer
drum, plate carrier, inner and outer friction disc,
spring etc.
This machine uses wet, multi disc, spring
pressing, hydraulic seperation constant mesh
type structure.
Power transfer path: unde normal condition,
power from shaft passes through hub (6) → inner
drum(5) → steel plate(4) → outer.friction disc (3)
→ outer drum(1) → drive plate of final drive
When the pressure oil from steering control valve
goes into the hub(6), it will push piston (10), bolt
and plate carrier (2) to move toward the arrow
direction(overcome the spring pressure) so that
the inner gear ring (4) and outer friction disc (3)
will seperate from friction, then the outer drum
(1) will stop working to cut off the power. If the oil
pressure is cut off, then the above-mentioned
parts will move according to the following
pictures, the steel plate (4) will mesh with the
outer friction plate to transfer power.
