Personal injury or death can result from sudden machine movement.Sudden movement of the machine can cause injury to persons on or near the machine.To prevent injury or death, make sure that the area around the machine is clear of personnel and obstructions before operating the machine.
The following procedure is used to test for parasitic load on the engine.Note: Verify that the transmission oil is at normal operation temperature. Machines operating under normal conditions should have engine stall speeds that are within the specified range. Refer to the factory test measurements to determine the appropriate specification for the machine that is being serviced. If the machine being serviced is outside the range of engine stall speeds, the power train components should be inspected. Use the component test specifications to determine the corrective action. These ranges of engine stall speed should not be used to adjust the engine power of the machine. If engine output is suspect, the engine should be tested on a dynamometer.The torque converter stall test helps determine if the engine is producing the correct power output. This stall test is used in many diagnostic procedures.The parking brake must be applied when the tests are performed. Make sure that the
