Hydraulic Oil Pump Test

Hydraulic Test Program - Hydraulic Oil Pump Test

Preparation for Test
1. Check oil level in oil reservoir, correct if necessary.
2. Unscrew connecting rods (54, 55) at front and rear leveling valve levers (set levers to neutral position).
3. Depressurize rear axle hydraulic system by slowly opening bleeder screw (3p). Connect drain hose and place into container.
4. Connect test gauge to rear axle leveling valve bleeder screw (S2).
5. Set both leveling valve levers to position "F" (fill).
6. Open pressure supply screw (50a) by maximum of 1 turn.
7. Disconnect return line (T) at oil reservoir (2) and using a suitable hose, hold it in a measuring glass.


Special Tools








To perform this test, the oil fill quantity must be increased by 0.5 liters. If the oil reservoir was empty, the hydraulic oil pump must first be bled by disconnecting the high pressure flexible hose at the steel line. Run the engine and hold the hose into a container until the oil exits free of bubbles.
