TROUBLESHOOTING
In many cases, problems with a hydraulic sys-
tems are not related to a defective hydraulic
unit, but are caused by slipping drive belts,
partially engaged bypass valves, and loose or
damaged control linkages . Be sure to perform
all operational checks and adjustments outlined
in Service and Maintenance, before assuming
the hydraulic system is malfunctioning . The
table below provides a troubleshooting check-
list to help determine the cause of operational
problems .
WARNING
Do not attempt any servicing or ad-
justments with the engine running.
Use extreme caution while inspecting
the drive belt assembly and all vehicle
linkage!
Follow all safety procedures outlined in
the vehicle owner’s manual.
