PUMP
PRESSURE
The charge pump provides hydraulic power to the
traction drfve.
To
check
charge pump pre
ss
ure:
1. Remove wiring from
aD
pressure switch near
hydraulic oil filter at right
side
of engine
compartment Remove switch
(A)
from cross
fitting.
2. Attach a a -

gauge
to a hose that
Is
long enough to allow pressure
gauge
to
be
read from the operator's seat
Attach hose
to
the cross fitting
(A)
(1/4
NPT).
3. Start engine and move throttle
lever fully
forward. Pressure should
be
90
to
150 psi (620
to
1000 kPa).
4. If pressure
Is
not within this range, back
pressure relief valve
(8)
at
reservoir is defective.
To
replace relief valve, it will be necessary to
drain hydraulic oil. See -Changing Hydraulic
