The hydrostatic pump is connected to the engine by a coupler and provides fluid to the hydrostatic drive motor. The charge pressure system assists in replenishing the fluid that is lost due to internal leakage in the components of the hydrostatic system.

VE R

The hydrostatic system consists of a hydrostatic pump and hydrostatic drive motor that allows forward and reverse motion in the vehicle.

HYDROSTATIC DRIVE MOTOR
Description
Mounted to the transmission input shaft, the hydrostatic drive motor is powered by the hydrostatic pump. A shuttle valve located inside the end cap of the hydrostatic drive motor helps to keep the motor cool by mixing case drain oil with cooled low pressure oil from the charge circuit. The shuttle valve is shifted by the high pressure oil coming from the hydrostatic pumps. 2. Loosen the intake hose clamps (Item 1).

Removal / Installation WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death, clean up spilled fuel or oil. Keep heat, flames, sparks or lighted tobacco away from fuel and oil. Failure to use care around combustibles can cause explosion or fire IMPORTANT: When repairing hydrostatic and hydraulic systems, clean the work area before disassembly and keep all parts clean. Always use caps and plugs on hoses, tubelines and ports to keep dirt out. Dirt can quickly damage the system 1. For installation, reverse this procedure.

CHARGE PRESSURE
Description
Charge pressure is a supply of oil feeding the hydrostatic pump. Charge pressure is regulated by a charge relief valve located inside the hydrostatic pump. Charge pressure is used to replenish hydrostatic fluid removed from the drive circuit, pump and motor "Internal leakage", and from the hydrostatic drive motors shuttle "flushing" valve. Charge pressure is also used to operate other hydraulic functions, such as shifting the auxiliary spool in the priority valve. The charge pressure is tested at the outlet side of the hydraulic filter. 3 adapter (PU-51199) (Item 3).

HYDROSTATIC PUMP
Description
Bolted on the engine just off the crankshaft, the hydrostatic pump is composed of a single (piston) pump. The pump provides flow to the drive motor. The pump contains replenishing valves that provide fluid to the low pressure side of the hydrostatic circuit. The replenishing valve also keeps high pressure fluid out of the low pressure side of the hydrostatic circuit. 5. Start the engine and place the shift lever in high. 6. Use the travel control pedal to obtain high idle. The gauge should read 5004 PSI (34501 kPa).

TRAVEL CONTROL (TREADLE) PEDAL
Description
The travel control (treadle) pedal is used to control the forward and backward movement of the vehicle. The farther the pedal is pressed, the faster the travel speed. The travel direction control system requires regular inspection. Inspect the travel direction control system to ensure proper operation. Incorrect adjustment may cause erratic travel speed conditions. 2 3. Check the travel control pedal (Item 2) for excessive freeplay.

WARNING
Failure to check or maintain proper operation of the travel control system can result in an accident and lead to serious injury or death if the travel control pedal or the engine speed control lever sticks during operation. Always inspect the travel control pedal for free movement and return to neutral before starting the engine and occasionally during operation. Never start or operate this vehicle if it has a sticking or improperly operating travel control pedal.

Inspection

1. Position the vehicle on a flat level surface. Position the gear selector lever in Park and stop the engine.

2. Inspect the travel control pedal (Item 1) for free movement. Be sure the pedal returns to the neutral position normally when released.

4. The correct amount of total free travel on the travel control pedal is 0.30 in. (7.6mm). 5. While on flat level ground, with the gear selector lever in Park, press the travel control pedal to full forward, the engine speed should be 3650 - 3750 RPM. Repeat with travel control pedal fully in reverse, the engine speed should be 3650 - 3750 RPM. If the specified RPM is not observed or if the travel control pedal does not return to neutral unassisted, reference the "Hydrostatic / Treadle Pedal Adjustments".
