SECTION 5 – HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The auxiliary Hydraulic System is an
open-type and is mounted behind the heavy-
duty hydrostatic variable displacement
pump. This system consists of dual gear
pumps (that supply required hydraulics to
operate the full-time power steering, lift
cylinders, cutter heads, and quad pullers).
After supplying each of these systems, the
hydraulic oil is sent to the oil cooler (located
in front of the engine coolant radiator), where
it is then cooled and sent back to the
hydraulic oil reservoir.
Low Hydraulic Oil Indicator
A Low Hydraulic Oil Indicator (located on
the side console) will illuminate when
hydraulic oil level drops too low for safe
operation. If this indicator light illuminates,
shut down the engine and refill hydraulic oil
reservoir to satisfactory level.
NOTE: A damaged wire or circuit may cause
the Low Hydraulic Oil Indicator to
falsely illuminate.
Gear Pump
The front (larger) Gear Pump supplies
hydraulic power to the cutter heads and quad
pullers. The rear (smaller) Gear Pump
supplies hydraulic power to the power
steering and lift cylinders.
Power Steering
The full-time Power Steering system
consists of a hydraulic steering motor
(mounted on the end of the steering wheel
shaft), which is connected to a pair of double-
action steering cylinders (mounted on both of
the front steering arms and outer leg
weldments).
