Main pump compartment
(1) Case drain hose
(2) Fitting (case drain filter)
3. Disconnect case drain hose (1) from fitting (2) on the case drain filter.
4. Install 6V-9832 Cap As on fitting (2) .
5. Connect one end of the remote drain hose to case drain hose (1). Place the other end of remote drain hose
into the container in order to measure the case drain oil.
6. Start the engine.
7. Place the engine speed dial at position "10" and AEC switch OFF. Maintain the maximum no-load speed
at 1860 ± 50 rpm.
Reference: Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Engine Performance - Test" for engine rpm settings.
8. Increase the hydraulic oil temperature to 55° ± 5°C (131° ± 9°F).
9. Perform the following steps in order to measure the case drain for two pump flow.
a. Move the joystick for the boom until the boom is at the full BOOM RAISE position. Hold the
joystick for the boom in this position for one minute.
b. Return the joystick to the NEUTRAL position.
c. Measure the amount of case drain oil.
10. Perform the following steps in order to measure the case drain oil for the right pump.
a. Move the joystick for the bucket until the bucket is at the full BUCKET CLOSE position. Hold the
joystick for the bucket in this position for one minute.
b. Return the joystick to the NEUTRAL position.

Pilot manifold
(3) Connector
(4) Solenoid valve for swing parking brake
a. Disconnect connector (3) from the solenoid valve for swing parking brake (4) .
b. Slowly move the swing joystick and make sure that the swing parking brake is activated.
c. Move the swing joystick fully for one minute.
d. Return the joystick to the NEUTRAL position.
e. Measure the amount of case drain oil.
f. Connect connector (3) to the solenoid valve for swing parking brake (4) .
Note: Repeat the test procedures three times in order to obtain three measurements.
Case drain pressure
normal ... 100 kPa (14.5 psi)
peak pressure ... 150 kPa (21.8 psi)
The following values specify the maximum acceptable flow of case drain oil at 35000 kPa (5076 psi) pump
discharge pressure.
one pump ... 17.3 L/min (4.57 US gpm)
two pump ... 26.0 L/min (6.87 US gpm)
Note: The temperature of the case drain oil is 20 °C (68 °F) higher than the temperature of the suction oil at
normal operating conditions.
