System Pressure - Release

SMCS - 4250-553-PX; 4300-553-PX; 5050-553-PX

Coolant System

Pressurized system: Hot coolant can cause serious burn. To open cap,
stop engine, wait until radiator is cool. Then loosen cap slowly to relieve
the pressure.

To relieve the pressure from the coolant system, turn off the machine. Allow the cooling system
pressure cap to cool. Remove the cooling system pressure cap slowly to relieve pressure.

Fuel System
To relieve the pressure from the fuel system, turn off the machine.

Hydraulic System

Personal injury can result from hydraulic oil pressure and hot oil.

Hydraulic oil pressure can remain in the hydraulic system after the
engine has been stopped. Serious injury can be caused if this pressure is
not released before any service is done on the hydraulic system.
 Make sure all of the attachments have been lowered, oil is cool before
removing any components or lines. Remove the oil filler cap only when
the engine is stopped, and the filler cap is cool enough to touch with
your bare hand.

Fan/Brake Circuit
To relieve the pressure from the fan/brake circuit, turn off the machine. Apply the service brake
pedal to the floor for one second and release the pedal completely for 9 seconds, for a minimum of
15 applications. Do not assume that all the pressure is removed from the circuit because the brake
pedal does not have resistance. Remove the pressure when you work on any part of the fan/brake
circuit.

Steering Circuit
To relieve the pressure from the steering circuit, turn off the machine. The steering valve has
enough leakage to allow for oil to return to the tank. Wait 10 minutes before you open the steering
system. This step will allow any residual pressure to drain into the tank.

Implement Circuit
Illustration 1 g01423186

Blade Lift, Plow Lift, and Wing Lift with Float

Push the right-hand joystick to the most forward DETENT position and push the left-hand joystick
to the most forward DETENT position. When you release either joystick, the joysticks will return
to the HOLD position. The right side of the blade will remain in the FLOAT position until the
joystick is moved forward or rearward. The left side of the blade will remain in the FLOAT
position until the joystick is moved forward or rearward. The lock valves (3), (25), (27), and (19)
will be forced open and the pressurized oil will return to the hydraulic tank. Rest the blade on the
ground in the FLOAT position for 30 seconds. Turn the machine to the OFF position. Wait at least
10 minutes before you open the blade lift relief lines (26) and (28) if the machine is equipped with
the blade cushion accumulators. If the machine cannot be started or the blade float is not working
properly, refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "System Pressure Release - Side Shift,
Blade Tip" for the blade lift circuit. If the machine cannot be started or the blade float is not
working properly, refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "System Pressure Release - Wing

valve (16) three times counterclockwise. Allow the pressure to be relieved. Remove the line relief
from the valve bank. Check the valve for damage. Reseal the valve and reinstall the valve into the
valve bank.

To relieve pressure on the head end side of the valve for the blade tip, turn out the lock valves (15)
three times counterclockwise. Allow the pressure to be relieved, and turn out the valve. Replace
the seals.

To relieve pressure on the rod end side of the valve for the mid-mount scarifier, turn out the line
relief valve (6) three times counterclockwise. Allow the pressure to be relieved. Remove the line
relief from the valve bank. Check the valve for damage. Reseal the valve and reinstall the valve
into the valve bank.

To relieve pressure on the head end side of the valve for the mid-mount scarifier, turn out the lock
valves (5) three times counterclockwise. Allow the pressure to be relieved, and then turn out the
valve. Replace the seals.

To relieve pressure on the rod end side of the valve for the plow angle, turn out the line relief
valve (2) three times counterclockwise. Allow the pressure to be relieved. Remove the line relief
from the valve bank. Check the valve for damage. Reseal the valve and reinstall the valve into the
valve bank.

To relieve pressure on the head end side of the valve for the plow angle, turn out the lock valves
(1) three times counterclockwise. Allow the pressure to be relieved, and turn out the valve.
Replace the seals.

To relieve pressure on the rod end side of the valve for the ripper, turn out the line relief valve
(22) three times counterclockwise. Allow the pressure to be relieved. Remove the line relief from
the valve bank. Check the valve for damage. Reseal the valve and reinstall the valve into the valve
bank.
To relieve pressure on the head end side of the valve for the ripper, turn out the lock valves (21)
three times counterclockwise. Allow the pressure to be relieved, and turn out the valve. Replace
the seals.

Wing Lift and Wing Tilt without Float

Turn the wing lift lock valves (17) and (18) three times counterclockwise slowly. Turn the wing
tilt lock valves (19) and (20) three times counterclockwise slowly. Allow the pressures to be
relieved. Remove the lock valves from the valve bank. Check the valve for damage. Reseal the
valve and reinstall the valve into the valve bank.

Personal injury can result from removing hoses or fittings in a pressure

system.

Failure to relieve pressure can cause personal injury.

Do not disconnect or remove hoses or fittings until all pressure in the

system has been relieved.

NOTICE

Using the incorrect size snap to connect (STC) wrench can cause
slippage, resulting in personal injury. Always verify that the STC
wrench size matches the size fitting to be disconnected.

1. Lower all work tools and attachments to the ground.

2. Release the system pressure. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "System Pressure -
Release".

3. Clean the connection that is to be disassembled. Clean the surrounding area to ensure that
the connection is free of all dirt, dust, and grit.

4. Pressure can be trapped in circuits after the engine has stopped. Personal injury or death can
result if all pressures are not released. Ensure that the pressure is zero in the line that is
being disconnected.

5. Select the designated release tool for the size of the connection. Using the wrong tool may
result in damage to the coupling, or cause slippage, resulting in unsafe conditions.

Note: Prying on the connection may result in damage to the release sleeve, requiring hose
replacement.

6. Insert the release tool behind the release sleeve, so that the release tool is perpendicular to
the connection. Fully insert the release tool to cause the release sleeve to move and separate
the retaining ring. The coupling may now be separated.

7. Pull on the hose in the direction parallel to the axis of connection while keeping the release
tool engaged. Pulling the hose at an angle may result in extra force required to disconnect
the connection.

8. Cover both ends of the connection with recommended plugs or caps to avoid contamination.

Connection Procedure
1. Clean the connection that is to be assembled. Ensure that the connection is free of all dirt,
dust, and grit.
 Illustration 3 g02141956

Note: If the release sleeve is damaged during the connection or disconnection of the STC
connection, the male portion must be replaced with new parts.

Note: Do not use the rubber sleeve as leverage to push the male half into the female half of
the STC connection.

2. Align the STC fitting on the hose assembly with the STC connector. Push the hose fitting
into the mating connector until you feel a definite snap and a solid stop.

3. Pull straight back on the connection. An improperly made connection will disconnect.

Assembly and Installation Procedure

Avoid prolonged skin contact with isopropyl alcohol. Avoid breathing

the vapors in enclosed areas without adequate ventilation and do not
smoke.

Isopropyl alcohol is flammable. Do not use near open flame, welding

operations, or around heated surfaces exceeding 482°C (900°F).
1. Remove any film, dust or other foreign matter from the following components:

Rubber toric ring (2)

Housing ramp (4)

Seal ring ramp (7)

Housing retaining lip (3)

Seal ring retaining lip (8)

Seal ring housing (5)

Note: Seal rings have very sharp edges. Protective gloves should be worn in order to
prevent injury.

Use isopropyl alcohol or other approved cleaning agents. Use a clean lint free cloth for
wiping. All components should be completely dry before proceeding.

Note: Never permit oil to contact rubber toric ring (2), housing ramp (4) or seal ring ramp
(7) before both seal rings (1) are assembled in the final position.

 Illustration 3 g00446488

2. Put rubber toric ring (2) on seal ring (1). Make sure that the rubber toric ring is positioned at
the bottom of seal ring ramp (7). The rubber toric ring must rest against retaining lip (8).
The rubber toric ring must be straight in the seal ring. The rubber toric ring must not be
twisted.

Note: Be careful when you are working on the rubber toric ring. Nicks, cuts or scratches
may cause leaks.

3. Refer to Special Instruction, SEHS8484, "Tool and Specification Chart for Conventional
Duo-Cone Seals" in order to select the proper installation tool.

Illustration 4 g00534621
Use towels or a mat (A) that is made of foam in order to aid in the installation of toric ring (2).
4. Use Tooling (9) to install rubber toric ring (2) on seal ring (1). Lightly dampen the lower
half of rubber toric ring (2) with an appropriate lubricant. Refer to the "Acceptable
Lubricants for Assembly" in this publication for additional information. Use the following
procedure in order to dampen the rubber toric ring:

Wipe the seal with a lint free cloth.

Place towels or a mat that is made of foam at the bottom of a container. Soak the
towels or the mat with the lubricant. Dip the rubber toric seal in the container.

Note: Periodically inspect the installation tool for damage. If necessary, replace the
installation tool .

Illustration 5 g00534622

5. Make sure that the lower half of rubber toric ring (2) is still wet. Use Tooling (9) in order to
position seal ring (1) and rubber toric ring (2) squarely against seal ring housing (5). Make
sure that you use sudden pressure and even pressure when you press a toric ring that has a
small diameter. Press rubber toric ring (2) under housing retaining lip (3) that is part of seal
ring housing (5). Use the following procedure in order to install a rubber toric ring that has a
large diameter:

Push the rubber toric ring over the seal ring retaining lip on one side.

Tap the installation tool with a rubber mallet on the opposite side of the rubber toric
ring. Tap until the rubber toric ring is past the seal ring retaining lip of the housing.

6. Check assembled height (B) at four locations that are 90 degrees from each other. Use a
calibrated 6V-3075 Dial Indicator and the related tools in Table 1 in order to measure the
assembled height. The difference in height must not exceed 1.0 mm (0.04 inch). Refer to
Illustration 6.

Illustration 7 g00446492
7. Do not adjust the seal ring (1) by pushing on the seal ring or by pulling on the seal ring. Use
Tooling (9) in order to push down on the seal.

Examples of incorrect assembly
8. Rubber toric ring (2) may twist during installation if the seal is not completely wet or if
there are burrs or fins on housing retaining lip (3) that is part of seal ring housing (5).
Misalignments, twists and bulges of the rubber toric ring will cause Duo-Cone Seal failures.
If correct installation is not obvious, remove the toric ring from the housing and repeat the
installation procedure.

Illustration 10 g00446495

9. Wipe seal ring face (6) that is part of seal rings (1) by using a lint free cloth. No particles of
any kind are permissible on the sealing surfaces. A small piece of paper from a paper towel
can force apart the seal ring face, which will cause a leak.

Note: Rubber toric ring (2) must never slip on the ramps of seal ring (1) or the ramps of seal
ring housing (5). In order to prevent slippage, allow adequate time for evaporation of the
lubricant before proceeding with the procedure. Once the rubber toric ring is correctly
positioned, the rubber toric ring must roll only on the ramps.
 Illustration 11 g00534623

10. Apply a thin film of clean oil on the entire seal ring face of one or both seals. Use a lint free
cloth or brush in order to distribute the oil evenly. Be careful not to get any oil on the rubber
toric rings. Lubricate the seal faces by using the same oil that was used during assembly.
Dye may have been used in the oil that was used during assembly. Use the same kind of oil
without dye in order to lubricate the seal faces.
 Illustration 12 g00446497

11. Make sure that both seal ring housings (5) are in correct alignment and that the seal ring
housings are concentric. Move the parts slowly and move the parts carefully toward each
other.

Note: Do not force the seal ring and the seal ring housing together in a sudden manner. The
seal component could be scratched or the seal component could be broken if the
components are slammed together.

12. Tighten the bolts after the components are in the correct position.

Acceptable Lubricants for Assembly

Avoid prolonged skin contact with isopropyl alcohol. Avoid breathing

the vapors in enclosed areas without adequate ventilation and do not
smoke.

Isopropyl alcohol is flammable. Do not use near open flame, welding

operations, or around heated surfaces exceeding 482°C (900°F).

Note: Do not use any liquid that leaves an oil film. Do not use any liquid that does not evaporate
quickly. All of the guidelines for safety and all of the guidelines for disposal must be followed
when you use a flammable liquid. The following liquids are acceptable lubricants for assembly:

• Quaker Solvo Clean 68-0

• Houghto-Grind 60 CT

• Isopropyl alcohol

Some seal kits come with silicone toric rings. Silicone toric rings can be chilled for easier
installation. This will allow the toric ring to contract for easier installation.

Seals should be placed in a freezer for 5 minutes. Temperature in the freezer should be between

sufficient to allow installation. The seals should be allowed to warm to room temperature prior to
further assembly.

Result of Incorrect Assembly

Illustration 13 g00446498

The slipping of the rubber toric ring on the housing ramp or on the seal ring ramp may result in
uneven pressure on the seal face. Uneven pressure on the seal face causes galling, scoring, and
leakage.

If the rubber toric ring slips at one location but not all the way around the seal ring, the toric ring
will twist.

The twisted toric ring could be cocked. Seals that are cocked will cause uneven pressure on the
seal face. Seals that are cocked may also cause possible galling, scoring, and leakage.

The twisted toric ring could oscillate when the ring is rotated. Seals that oscillate may allow dirt
into the seal joint. This is caused by the pumping action that is created by the toric ring that is
oscillating.
Illustration 14 g00446499

Illustration 14 shows a toric ring that is assembled incorrectly. The upper housing is stationary.
The lower housing is rotating.

Illustration 15 g00446500

Illustration 15 shows the same seal after the lower housing has rotated 180 degrees. In this
position, there will be high pressure at point (B) and at point (X). These points of high pressure
may result in galling of the toric rings. There will be low pressure at point (A) and at point (Y)
which will result in possible leakage.

Hydraulic Tank and Filter - Remove and Install

SMCS - 5056-010

Removal Procedure
Start By:

a. Remove the enclosure (cooling system package).

Personal injury can result from hydraulic oil pressure and hot oil.

Hydraulic oil pressure can remain in the hydraulic system after the
engine has been stopped. Serious injury can be caused if this pressure is
not released before any service is done on the hydraulic system.

Make sure all of the work tools have been lowered to the ground, and
the oil is cool before removing any components or lines. Remove the oil
filler cap only when the engine is stopped, and the filler cap is cool
enough to touch with your bare hand.

1. Drain the hydraulic oil. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Hydraulic System
Oil - Change" for the correct draining and filling procedures.
