TROUBLESHOOTING
This guide identifies several commonly
encountered conditions and the recommended
course of action. For conditions other than
these, contact the Allied Technical Service
Department.
Only qualified personnel, having
knowledge of the machine’s systems,
proper test equipment and tools should
attempt adjustments and repairs.
Insufficient oil pressure or
flow.
Check hydraulic supply
system. Correct as required.
Inspect and replace bearings.
Broken motor shaft or worn
splines.
Inspect and replace worn
parts.
Erratic oil pressure or flow.
Check hydraulic supply
system. Correct as required.
Inspect and replace failed
mount.
Unit runs with excessive
noise or vibration
Inspect and replace bearings.
Loose bolts or mounting
hardware.
Inspect and tighten bolts.
Unit runs, but stalls
under load
Check hydraulic supply
system. Correct as required.
Inspect and replace bearings.
Motor worn or motor seals
failed.
Inspect and replace motor.
Unit runs smoothly, but
at reduced speed
If motor or flow regulator valve
was replaced, check that the
motor and valve are properly
matched.
Oil discharge from
pressure relief vent
Note: The performance of the attachment is
affected by a hydraulic system that is not
operating to specifications. If the attachment
is not working correctly, make a thorough
check of the carrier’s hydraulic system.
Using a flow meter, measure the oil flow
and determine the cracking pressure of the
relief valve. Include the hoses from the
attachment as part of the test. This will
eliminate the possibility of a collapsed hose.
Compare the results of your test with the
specifications in section 5.1.
