TESTING & TROUBLESHOOTING
GENERAL
Tests and adjustments should be performed periodically to ensure the power unit is operating at maximum ef- ficiency. Stanley Circuit Tester (part number 04182) is recommended. This tester can be used to isolate prob- lems in both the engine and hydraulic system prior to any power unit disassembly.
TESTING THE HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT
The following tests can be performed to ensure that the hydraulic pump is supplying the correct flow and pres- sure and that the system relief valve is operating prop- erly.
During these tests, make sure the engine is warm and operating smoothly. If test results are not as specified, refer to the troubleshooting table in this section for pos- sible causes.
TESTING THE 5 GPM OR 10 GPM CIRCUIT
To test the circuit, proceed as follows:
1.Set the flow selector switches to the OFF (center) po- sition.
2.Set the throttle control switch to
3.Connect the Stanley Circuit Tester across two hose ends (where the tool would normally be connected).
4.Fully open the tester restrictor valve (counterclock- wise).
5.Start the engine and allow it to run until warm.
6.Switch the flow selector switch to 5 or 10 gpm de- pending on which flow you are testing.
7.With the engine at the programed speed, the test flow gauge should read
8.Slowly turn the restrictor valve clockwise while watch- ing the pressure gauge. The flow rate should stay at
9.At
a. The relief valve is located on the right side of the unit just behind the dash panel. It putrudes out from the manifold as- sembly. Use a open end or box end wrench to loosen the nut on the relief valve.
b. Use an Allen wrench to adjust the relief valve. Turn clock- wise to raise the pressure and counterclockwise to reduce the pressure.
c. Tighten the nut and retest.
