Priming the Hydraulic Pumps
Whenever hydraulic fluid has been drained from the pumps (system drain, flush,
or pump removal/installation) it is important to properly prime the hydraulic
pumps. Priming the hydraulic pumps ensures that the tandem piston (traction)
pump and gear pumps have sufficient fluid while charging the hydraulic system.
Use the following procedure to prime the hydraulic pumps:
IMPORTANT
If the tandem piston (traction) pump was rebuilt or replaced, make
sure the traction pump housing is at least half full of clean hydraulic
fluid after installation.
1. Make sure all hydraulic connections and lines are secured tightly.
2. Check the hydraulic-fluid level in the hydraulic tank and add correct type and
quantity of fluid if necessary; refer to the traction unit

START terminal
Note:
A blue wire connects to the starter motor solenoid START terminal.
It is not necessary to remove this blue wire from the solenoid terminal for
hydraulic pump priming.
3. Access the terminals on the back of the starter motor.
4. Connect remote starter switch electrical leads to the starter motor solenoid
START terminal and the positive (+) terminal at the battery; refer to
.
5. Engage the remote starter switch and allow the starter to crank for 15 seconds
to prime the hydraulic pumps. Wait 30 seconds to allow the starter motor and
starter solenoid to cool. Repeat the cranking procedure a second time.
6. Disconnect the remote starter switch leads from the machine.
7. Charge the hydraulic system; refer to
