2. Disconnect the traction control cable ball joint and
jam nuts from the neutral arm (Fig. 43). Position traction
cable away from the pump assembly.
CAUTION
The extension spring attached to the neutral arm
is under tension and may cause personal injury
during removal. Use caution when removing the
spring from the pump neutral arm.
3. Disconnect one end of the extension spring attached
to the neutral arm (Fig. 44).
4. Remove two (2) cap screws (item 10), flat washers
(item 9), coupling spacers (item 7) and lock nuts (item
6) that secure pump hub to rubber coupling (item 8).
5. Thoroughly clean hydraulic hose ends and fittings on
gear and piston (traction) pumps to prevent hydraulic
system contamination.
6. Label all hydraulic hose connections on gear and
piston pumps for assembly purposes.
7. Clamp pump inlet hose (item 4) to prevent draining
the hydraulic reservoir.
8. Loosen hose clamp and remove inlet hose from the
gear pump.
9. Disconnect hydraulic hoses from fittings on pump
assembly. Allow hoses to drain into a suitable container.
