To prevent injury or death, make sure that the area around the
machine is clear of personnel and obstructions before operating the
machine.
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.
Escaping fluid under pressure, even a pinhole size leak, can penetrate
body tissue, causing serious injury, and possible death. If fluid is
injected into your skin, it must be treated immediately by a doctor
familiar with this type of injury.
NOTICE
Operational Checks
Operate the machine in each direction and in all speeds. Note the noises that are not normal and find
the sources of the noises. If the machine is not operating correctly, refer to the "Troubleshooting
Problem List" below.

Troubleshooting
Note: In the following section, when components are referenced with a number, refer to the schematic
in Illustration 1.
Reference: For additional information about troubleshooting the power train electronic control
module (ECM), refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Troubleshooting Service Codes".
Probable causes:
6. The upshift switch (if equipped) or the downshift switch (if equipped) is faulty.
7. The oil pressure is low. This may be caused by any of the following conditions:

e. There is oil leakage inside the transmission (worn seals around the clutch piston).
f. The transmission hydraulic control relief valve (1) is not adjusted correctly. The
transmission hydraulic control relief valve is stuck open.
Probable causes:
2. The machine is being used for the wrong application. There is too much torque converter slip,
which is caused by too much load.

a. Low oil pressure. Refer to "Problem: The transmission does not operate in any speed
or the transmission slips in all speeds."
b. A clutch is damaged.
8. Oil flow is low. This may be caused by pump wear or by leakage in the hydraulic system.
9. There is air in the oil. This may be caused by air leaks on the intake side of the pump.
10. Torque converter inlet relief valve (12) is stuck open. This causes low oil flow through the
torque converter.
11. The clutch or clutches are not fully released. (This is called clutch drag.) This may be caused by
