FERRET MAINTENANCE TRAINING

REGULATIONS OF THE LINDE 135 cc PUMP AND LINDE 210 cc ENGINE

Do not touch factory alone

1 .- Cold start valve: allows the passage of oil to fill the pump and eliminate the air inside
the pump, and in cold weather it facilitates the passage of the hydraulic oil until it warms
up and the oil flows better. It comes calibrated at 32 bar and this pressure can be checked
in X1
2 .- Pump supply valve: limited to 17.5 bar. It is the same pressure that we have in MSP,
which is the engine supply pressure. If we accelerate the machine, this pressure drops until
it is approximately 1 bar.
1 .- Take high pressure pressures in reverse: Indicates the maximum pressure that the
pump reaches at maximum power when we select reverse gear, it should be 430-440
bar.
2 .- Take high pressure pressures forward: Indicates the pressure that the pump reaches
at maximum power when we select forward gear, it should be 430-440 bar.
3 .- Take forward servo pressures Z: These are the pressures that tilt the head so that the
machine begins to move forward slowly, that is, so that the machine begins to move
slowly, not with full pressure from the moment we activate the direction lever. It
oscillates between 0 and 30 bar, 0 bar at neutral and increases as we accelerate the
machine until reaching 30 bar.
4 .- Take servo pressures back Y: These are the pressures that tilt the head so that the
machine begins to go backwards slowly, that is, so that the machine begins to move
slowly, not with full pressure from the moment we activate
 5 the direction lever. It oscillates between 0 and 30 bar, 0 bar at neutral and increases
as we accelerate the machine up to 30 bar.
6 .- Takes pressures “MSP”: It indicates the supply pressure that goes to the hydraulic
motor. It should always read 17 bar.
7 .- Takes pressures from the engine speed change “L”: It is the pressure that goes to
the engine speed change, both to the manual transmission and to the automatic
transmission. The pressure should vary from 17 to 32 bar as we accelerate the machine,
17 at neutral until reaching 32 bar.

It goes from 23 to 32 bar

1 .- Neutral valve: We regulate the pump so that when we have the gear lever in
neutral, the machine has to be stopped, it cannot move forward or backward, if we start
the machine and take the pilot pressure
2 The two high pressure hoses should read the same pressure on both hoses.
3 .- Power valve or charging valve: It relates the power of the pump to the power of the
diesel engine, so that when the pump acts, the diesel engine does not drop too much
rpm, so that it does not cause the diesel to lose too much power. It is regulated by
having the diesel at maximum rpm and the brake pedal depressed, with the travel lever
activated, if we then put the travel lever in neutral then the diesel should rise 80-100
rpm When adjusting the power valve, The maximum pressure of the pump should not
drop too much either, drop by approximately 30 bar.
4 .- Machine output valve: Regulates the output of the machine, that is, at what rpm of
the diesel engine the machine will begin to move when the speed is selected, so that the
machine does not start moving as soon as the direction lever is operated. without
accelerating nor do you have to accelerate the diesel too much and the rpm increases
excessively for it to start moving. It will be regulated so that the machine starts running
when we have approximately 1100 rpm of diesel engine.

Important : Due to differences in the internal mounting of the motors in the LINDE
factory, in some motors only the MSP pilot pressure from the pump to the motor will be
used, and in others it will be necessary to use the pilot pressure of both MSP and X1
from the pump to the motor, depending on the internal mounting of the motors. The
motors will be engraved from the LINDE factory with 1 when it is only necessary to use
MSP and engraved with 2 when it is necessary to use MSP and X1. Depending on this
configuration, the connections will be made as follows:
 On the engine, the engine pilot and the solenoid valve plug are joined by a hose (blue) and a
TE is placed to connect
1. Connection only with pump MSP: with the hose that comes
out of the MSP of the
pump.

1 .- Valve that is calibrated at the factory and should not be touched. This valve is calibrated at
26.5 bar and can be checked at “L”. Without engaging the gear, if we accelerate the machine to
maximum diesel rpm it will reach 32 bar.
2 .- Pressure measurement that indicates the pilot pressure in high speed: when we have
selected high speed it should read 17 bar, regardless of the diesel rpm, whenever we select high
speed there should be 17 bar and in low speed it will disconnect and show 0 bar .
3 .- Regulation of automatic gear changes from long to short: In this valve we regulate at what
pressure the automatic gear change occurs. It is regulated so that it automatically switches to
low pressure when it reaches 220 bar. When we go in high speed and the machine needs more
power, when it reaches the regulated pressure,
220 bar, the hydraulic motor automatically performs a hydraulic change equivalent to a gear
change at low speed, as if we were changing at low speed but automatically. If we took the
pressure at 2 we would observe that it drops from 17 to 0 bar.

for manual gear
change. When
it has power, the motor is short-circuited.

Only when the machine is moving forward does the automatic transmission solenoid valve have
power and regulate the speed change tacho. When the machine goes backwards, the automatic
transmission solenoid valve has no power and does not perform any automatic gear change.
Speed regulation: the speed is independently regulated in low gear and in high gear.

1 .- Short speed regulation: The inclination of the motor plate is regulated, then we achieve
greater or lesser oil flow and then the machine will have a higher or lower speed in short.

2 .- Long speed regulation: The inclination of the motor plate is regulated, then we achieve
greater or lesser oil flow and then the machine will have a greater or lesser speed in long
periods.
SPINNING PUMP:

In the spinning motor of the top, the hoses that go from the pump to the motor will be
removed; they are the ones that allow us to turn from one side to the other. We plug the
engine so that dirt does not enter. We will place some minimex in each hose to be able to
attach the pressure gauge to measure the pressures.

After connecting everything we will start the diesel engine, accelerate the machine and
act in one direction of the pump, pressing repeatedly, obtaining a continuous pressure of
250 bar. Next, we will make the measurement for the other hose, accelerating the
machine and acting on the opposite button, also obtaining 250 continuous bars.
SERVICE PUMP : Steering, brake, parking brake, water and high pressure pump and
top cover
On the service pump we have a pressure gauge that should indicate 180-190 bar
maximum. To obtain this maximum pressure we can act in different places, such as
turning fully and keeping the steering wheel turned, or on the back cover of the top,
closing it and continuing to press, applying pressure with the cover on the top.

PROBLEMS THAT WE MAY FIND AND THEIR SOLUTION

The machine does not move.

Find out:
• The electronic throttle is not activated or the hand throttle lever.
• The handbrake is not applied.
• The gear lever is not in neutral.
• The fuses for this purpose are correct.

• That the cables that reach the solenoid valves of the pump and the hydraulic
motor have tension.
• The hydraulic oil is at the level

If with these checks the machine does not move, we will proceed to take the pressure
values in the pump in case it has some type of deficiency in it.

There are two ways to proceed to look at the pressure at the pump.

• Manometers (pressure gauges) will be placed on the pump.

• The Diesel engine will be started and the foot brake will be pressed.
• We will select a speed on the gear lever.
• We will accelerate progressively until we reach the rpm engine maximums,
the pressure must rise progressively.
• If the pressure does not rise adequately, the failure may be caused by either
the pump or the motor.
• To rule out which of the two we will cover the pump, that is, we separate the
pump from the motor and proceed to repeat the test.
• If the values are correct, replace the motor.
• If the values are not correct, replace the pump.

NOTE. It is recommended that, if the pump values are not correct, you also
check the motor in case it has been affected by any pollution sent from the pump.

If due to circumstances we have to remove the machine from its location, it is

important to follow the following steps to tow it.
Only in case of extreme URGENCY.

• We will put the reducer in neutral, to do this we will have the following
precautions.
• This operation must be done with two operators.
• If it is on a slope we will chock the machine with chocks for this purpose.
• With the machine started, an operator will press the foot brake to prevent
movement.
• On the reducer itself there is a black knob that we will see how it moves when
the machinist selects long or short reducer lengths.
• To put the reducer in neutral we will only have to remove or insert the piston
with the knob forward or backward, slowly until we see that the machine moves
freely

• It is advisable to select it facing outwards and with a rubber mallet tap it inwards
until it remains in neutral.
 • When this happens we can tow the machine, without the hydraulic motor
suffering.
• Do not stop the diesel engine, since if the parking brake is negative, the machine
would remain braked, or failing that, release the tension so that it does not
operate, remembering to return it as before afterward.

The bass drum does not rotate in either direction.

Find out.

• The fuses for this purpose are correct.

• That the cables that reach the solenoid valves of the hydraulic pump have
tension.
• That the lever from which we are acting the movement does its function well.
If with these checks the drum does not rotate, we will proceed to take the pressure
values in the pump in case it has some type of deficiency in it.
If they are correct, replace the drum rotation motor.
If the values are not correct, replace the pump.
If the pump is faulty, and is loaded with concrete, we can do it in two ways to
remove it.
1 .- If we have a machine (ferret) with the same characteristics, put the hoses of the
one that works directly to the engine of the one that does not work and thus be able
to unload it.
2 .- If we do not have any machine at hand.

• We can use the machine's service-brake pump to remove the concrete; we

must pay great importance to the following points.
• Place the machine in the place where you want to download.
• Chock the machine to immobilize it.
• Stop the diesel engine.
• Keep in mind that once we are going to use this pump we will not be able to
move the machine, since we will not have direction or brake, since we will
cancel it.

• Of the three hoses that go to the hydraulic motor for rotating the drum,
release the two that are the same (fatter), do not touch the other one.
• Of the two hoses that go to the service pump, one is the suction (comes from
 the tank), and the other is the pressure, the latter is the one we are going to
use.

• From the pressure of the service pump, connect it to one of the two fittings of
the drum rotation motor.
• And from the other connection of the drum rotation motor, put a direct hose
to the hydraulic oil tank.
• When you have made these connections, start the diesel engine, as this pump
is placed in the distribution of the diesel engine it will immediately rotate the
drum rotation motor, to stop it we will have to turn off the diesel engine.

• If it does not rotate properly to remove the material, reverse the motor hoses.
• Once the concrete has been removed, stop the diesel engine.
• Place the service pump hoses as they were initially and change the tank
rotation pump for another one in perfect condition.

Recommendations.
As the pressure hose of the service pump is smaller than the tank rotation hose, have
adapters prepared for this purpose.
Another possibility is to have some made and prepared in advance in case this
emergency arises, properly clean and covered so that no type of impurities get into the
circuit.
As we have pointed out, this is an emergency case.
The bass drum only rotates to one side .

We will proceed as follows.

• Remove the caps from the two solenoid valves and invert them, that is, plug them
in, the opposite.
• If the drum continues to rotate in the same direction as previously, the fault has
not changed, the problem is one of the solenoid valves, change immediately.

• If the problem is reversed, the solenoid valves are fine and there is no voltage to
one of the electrical caps, for this reason.
• Check the same cap to see if one of the two cables is bad.
• That the cables that reach the solenoid valves of the hydraulic pump have
tension.
• The fuses for this purpose are correct.
• That the lever from which we are acting the movement does its function well.
Not very common cases.
1 .- The drum only rotates to knead and not to remove the material.

• The pump or motor has lost effectiveness as it heats up, therefore, it has internal
leaks and loses strength as working time passes and it cannot remove the
material.

• We will have to check the pump pressure independently of the motor and
proceed as explained in the points for this purpose.
• If the pump gives the values correctly, replace the motor.
• If the pump does not give its values, replace the pump.

NOTE. It is recommended that, if the pump values are not correct, you also
check the motor in case it has been affected by any pollution sent from the pump.

2 .- That the bass drum does not have power, it goes very slowly.

• Check the pressure of the drum rotation pump.

• If the values are not appropriate, replace.

• If the values are adequate, change the drum rotation motor.

I don't have a handbrake.

Start the machine and apply the handbrake to see if the handbrake caliper cam operates.

• If it works, tighten the handbrake pads.

• Does not work, problem in the handbrake lever, check.
• Check the pressure hose for the values.
• If they are not suitable, replace.

It does not have steering, brakes and services.

• Check hydraulic level.

• Check service, steering and brake pump suction hose, it may be strangled or
broken and the pump may cavitate (suck air).
• Check pump pressure, if it does not show pressure, replace.
