Introduction
NOTE: For Specifications with illustrations, make reference to Specifications For D6H Tractor
Power Train, Form No. SENR3239. If the Specifications in Form SENR3239 are not the same as in
the Systems Operation and the Testing and Adjusting, look at the printing date on the cover of each
book. Use the Specifications given in the book with the latest date.

Power Train/Hydraulic System Testing and


Adjusting

Sudden movement of the machine or release of oil under pressure can


cause injury to persons on or near the machine. To prevent possible
injury, do the procedure that follows before testing and adjusting the
power train/hydraulic system.

1. Move the machine to a smooth horizontal location. Move away from working machines and
personnel and lower implements to the ground.

2. Permit only one operator on the machine. Keep all other personnel either away from the machine
or in view of the operator.

3. Activate the parking brake.

4. Stop the engine.

5. Move the control levers to all positions to release the pressure in the power train/hydraulic system.

6. Carefully loosen the filler cap on the hydraulic tank to release the pressure in the tank.

7. Make sure all hydraulic pressure is released before any fitting, hose or component is loosened,
tightened, removed or adjusted.

8. Tighten the filler cap on the hydraulic tank.

9. The pressure in the system has now been released and lines or components can be removed.

Procedure
When defining a power train/hydraulic system problem, the following procedure should be followed.
First, do Visual Checks. If when complete the problem has not been identified, do operation checks.
If the problem is still not fully understood, do Instrument Tests. This procedure will help identify
power train/hydraulic system problems. As soon as the problem is defined, go to Troubleshooting.
The Troubleshooting section will list the probable causes of a known problem. Since there may be
more than one cause for a problem, the Troubleshooting section may suggest specific inspections or
instrument tests be done. These inspections and tests will help identify which of the causes is most
probable.

Use this as a reference for the location and correction of problems in the power train/hydraulic
system. When more checks are necessary, use the 8T5320 Hydraulic Test Group and the
4C4890/4C4892 Fitting Groups. Locations of the pressure taps and procedures for testing and
adjusting are given in the Power Train/Hydraulic System, Testing and Adjusting.

Visual Checks
A visual inspection of the power train/hydraulic system and its components is the first step when a
diagnosis of a problem is made.

Do not check for leaks with your hands. Pin hole (very small) leaks can
result in a high velocity oil stream that will be invisible close to the hose.
This oil can penetrate the skin and cause personal injury. Use
cardboard or paper to locate pin hole leaks.

1. Check the oil levels of the transmission and bevel gear case.

2. Check the oil level in the final drives.

3. Check all oil lines, hoses and connections for leaks and damage. Look for oil on the ground under
the machine.

4. Check the control linkages for the transmission, steering clutches and brakes for damage and/or
adjustment.

5. Let the oil out of the filter housing. Remove and check the filter element for foreign materials.
Check the magnetic screen.
a. Bronze-colored particles give and indication of a clutch failure.
b. Shiny steel particles give the indication of a pump failure.
c. Rubber particles give an indication of a seal or hose failure.

If you find metal or rubber particles, all components of the transmission hydraulic system must be
washed clean. Do not use parts with damage. Use new parts.

6. Check the adjustment of the track.

When tests and adjustments are made to the transmission or the torque
converter, the parking brake must be off. To prevent movement of the
machine and personal injury do the procedure that follows.

1. Lower the bulldozer and ripper to the ground.

2. Put blocks in front of and behind the tracks.

3. Let only approved personnel on the machine and keep other personnel off the machine and in clear
view of the operator.

4. When testing must be done in a closed area and whenever possible, activate the service brakes if
the parking brake can not be used.

NOTE: All tests and adjustments must be made within the oil in the power train hydraulic system at
normal temperature for operation. Make sure the linkage adjustments are correct before any tests are
made.

NOTICE
Many of the pressure taps for testing the power train hydraulic system
have quick disconnect couplings already installed. Do not connect or
disconnect the couplings when there is pressure in the system. This will
prevent damage to the seal that is in the coupling.

4. Let spool (8) return to its original position against pin (5).

5. Now adjust link (10) until roller (4) is at dimension (3) 0.08 ± 0.08 mm (.003 ± .003 in.) from link
(2). Make sure lever (6) is not in contact with switch (7) with spool (8) and piston (9) in these
positions.

Linkage For Parking Brake

To prevent possible personal injury do not make any adjustments to the


control linkage with the engine running unless necessary, activate
parking brake. Let only approved personnel on the machine. Keep
other personnel off the machine and in clear view of the service
personnel.

Parking Brake Linkage


(1) Knob (parking brake). (A) Rod assembly. (B) Rod. (X) 123 ± 2 mm (4.84 ± .08 in.).

Torque for all 3/8 in. locknuts (jam nuts) that hold the rod ends in place on the rod ... 14 ± 4 N·m (10
± 3 lb ft)

NOTE: All rod assembly measurements must be made in a straight line between the centerlines of
the rod end mounting holes.

Assembly length of rod assembly (A) ... 270 ± 2 mm (10.6 ± .08 in.)

Procedure to Adjust Parking Brake Linkage

1. Install the rod ends on rod (B) and install assembled rod (B) and rod assembly (A) on the tractor.

2. Move parking brake knob (1) up to the BRAKE ON position. Measure distance (X) from the
platform to the top of the knob. Distance (X) must be 123 ± 2 mm (4.84 ± .08 in.).

3. Adjust assembled rod (B) if distance (X) is not correct.

4. As a final check, install a 0 to 4000 kPa (0 to 600 psi) pressure gauge on the right or left brake
pressure tap on the steering and brake control valve.

5. Start the engine and run it at maximum rpm.

6. The pressure gauge must read 0 kPa. If the pressure is not 0 kPa, make assembled rod (B) longer
and check the pressure again.

7. Push parking brake knob (1) down to the BRAKE OFF position. The pressure gauge must read
2750 ± 70 kPa (400 ± 10 psi). If the pressure reading is low, make assembled rod (B) shorter and
check the pressure again.

Linkage For Forward And Reverse Control

To prevent possible personal injury, make adjustments with the engine


off and the parking brake activated.

Torque for all 1/2 in. locknuts that hold the rod ends in place on the rods ... 45 ± 7 N·m (33 ± 5 lb ft)

NOTE: All rod assembly measurements must be made in a straight line between the centerlines of
the rod end mounting holes.

Assembled length of rod (A) ... 470 mm (18.5 in.)

Assembled length of rod (B) ... 275 ± 2 mm (10.8 ± .08 in.)

Forward And Reverse Control Linkage


(1) Lever (shift). (2) Lever. (3) Rod end. (A) Rod. (B) Rod.

Procedure to Adjust Forward and Reverse Control Linkage

1. Install the rod ends on rods (A) and (B) and install the assembled rods on the tractor.

2. Put shift lever (1) and lever (2) in their NEUTRAL positions.

3. Adjust rod end (3) so that shift lever (1) does not make contact with the guide.
