SECTION 8H. TRACTION PUMP REPAIR
GENERAL
The hydrostatic traction pump (Figure 8H-1) is
mounted underneath the seat pan and in front of the
engine. The pump is driven by a drive shaft, coupled
directly to the engine.
Figure 8H-1. Traction Pump/Reel Pump
The traction pump uses a coupler to drive the reel gear
pump. The traction pump supplies hydraulic flow to
drive the traction motors.
A splined shaft runs through the center of the traction
pump (Figure 8H-2). A slip yoke mounted on the
engine drive shaft slips over the splined end of the
pump shaft turning the shaft and operating the traction
pump and reel gear pump.
A set of eight pistons and barrel assembly produce
pump suction and pressure. The pistons have shoes
that ride against a swiveling swashblock. By swiveling
the swashblock the piston stroke is extended on one
side of the barrel assembly and shortened on the other
side. The extended piston stroke produces hydraulic
pressure, which is directed to one side of the wheel
traction motors turning the motors and attached
wheels. Oil passes through the motor and returns to
the traction pump.
When the swashblock is swiveled in the opposite direc-
tion, oil flows to the opposite side of the traction motors
turning the motor and attached wheels.
The direction of swashblock swivel is controlled by the
traction pedal and pump control arm.
A charge pump is mounted between the rotating group
and rear valve plate assembly. The pump draws fluid
from the hydraulic tank and supplies hydraulic pressure
to the steering unit and the traction circuits through the
cross port relief valves.
Repair of the traction pump is limited to replacement of
the various pump group service kits. These kits are
illustrated and defined by part numbers in the parts
section of the Parts & Maintenance Manual.
Before disassembling the traction pump, perform the
hydraulic tests in Section 8G to verify the pump is at
fault.
Only disassemble what is necessary to facilitate
needed repairs. Use the following procedure taking
note of special instructions. If possible, do not remove
locator pins. Discard and replace all o-rings, backup
rings and gaskets.
Disassembly should be in an area free of dust, dirt and
away from grinding and welding areas. Keep parts in a
bath of clean hydraulic fluid.

NOTICE
The system must be high pressure filtered after any
repairs to the traction pump or motor. A suitable high
pressure filter such as the Jacobsen 5097 is recom-
mended.
