Traction Drive Motor Hose Routing
If the traction drive motor or the
Hydraulic Hoses
to the motor are replaced or repaired, it’s important to
route the
Hydraulic Hoses
correctly when reinstalled to prevent wear or damage to the
Hydraulic Hoses
and
surrounding components.
When reinstalling the traction drive motor
Hydraulic Hoses
:
1. Install the
Hydraulic Hoses
but leave the fittings loose on
both ends so the
Hydraulic Hoses
can pivot.
2. Turn the steering wheel all the way toward the left. The
fittings should be on the front side of the motor.
3. Make sure the
Hydraulic Hoses
are routed up and inside
the channel in the
Drive Wheel Weldment
as shown on
the right, and lie flat against the
Bottom of the Frame
as
shown below.
4. Make sure the
Hydraulic Hoses
are not twisted, then
tighten the fittings on both ends to 45 ft-lbs. Note that
the fittings must be tight to prevent loosening while
steering.
5. Turn the steering wheel all the way toward the left and
right several times to make sure the
Hydraulic Hoses
don’t catch and are not rubbing against the surrounding
components.
