RECOIL-TRACK-YM 5086653 - Caterpillar

Checks During Operation
With the engine running, move the control levers for the transmission to all speed positions and the control lever for the flywheel clutch to all positions.Operate the machine in each direction and in all speeds. Make note of all noises that are not normal and find their sources. If the operation is not correct, make reference to the CHECK LIST DURING OPERATION for "problems" and "probable causes."Check List During Operation
Transmission
Problem: Transmission does not operate in any speed or is not engaged (slips) in all speeds.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Failure in flywheel clutch.2. Mechanical failure in transmission.3. Failure of bevel gear.4. Failure in steering clutches.Problem: Transmission operates in Reverse speeds only or Forward speeds only.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Control linkage loose or adjustment not correct.2. Mechanical failure in transmission.Problem: Transmission does not make a shift.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Control linkage loose or adjustment not correct.2. Mechanical failure in transmission.Problem: Transmission does not remain in a speed when under load conditions.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Interlock linkage adjustment not correct.2. Interlock linkage has damage.3. Interlock linkage spring is broken.4. Ends of interlock plungers and/or notches in shifts shafts have wear.5. Interlock springs are weak or have damage.Problem: Shifts of the transmission are not easy.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Shift forks have damage or wear.Problem: Gears in the transmission do not turn.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Failure of the bearings on one or more of the shafts.2. Gear in transmission is broken.3. One or more of the gears not correctly engaged (transmission in two speeds at the same time).Problem: Transmission is in a speed when the control lever is in Neutral.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Control linkage loose or adjustment not correct.2. Mechanical failure in transmission.Problem: Transmission gets hot.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. High oil level.2. Low oil flow because of a pump that has wear or leaks in the lubrication system.3. Low oil level.Problem: Pump noise not normal.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Loud sounds at short intervals that give an indication that particles are going through the pump are caused by pump cavitation.2. A constant loud noise is an indication of pump failure.3. Air at the inlet side of the pump (aeration).Steering
Problem: Machine will not turn in one direction.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Adjustment of steering control linkage not correct.2. Too much leakage in steering clutch control valve.3. Steering clutch discs or plates have wear or damage.4. Seals or steering clutch piston have damage.Problem: Machine will not turn in either direction.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Low oil pressure to steering clutch control valve.2. Adjustment of the relief valve not correct.3. Leaks in relief valve or control valve.4. Adjustments of control linkages for the steering clutches and brakes not correct.5. Steering clutch or clutches not releasing.Problem: Machine moves in either direction when both steering clutches are engaged.
PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Adjustments of the control linkages for the steering clutches and brakes not correct.2. Steering clutch discs or plates have wear or damage.3. Steering clutch springs that are weak or have damage.4. Bolts that hold the steering clutch springs are broken.5. Splines on the steering clutch hubs have damage.Problem: Slow
