Test Procedure (continued)
Reelmaster ® 5410/5510/5610 Series
15216SL Rev C
All wheels will be off the ground and rotating during this test. Ensure
that the machine is supported so it will not move and accidentally
fall to prevent injuring anyone near the machine.
8. Start engine and run at idle speed. Check for any hydraulic leakage from
tester and hose connections. Correct any leaks before proceeding.
9. Increase engine speed to high idle speed. Ensure that the hydraulic fluid is at
normal operating temperature by operating the machine for approximately
10 minutes.
10. Slowly push traction pedal to fully forward position. Keep pedal fully pressed
in the forward position.
11. Have second person watch pressure gauge on tester carefully while slowly
closing the flow control valve until 6,900 kPa (1,000 psi) is obtained. Verify
with a phototac that the engine speed is still 3,000 rpm.
Note: If engine speed is not 3,000 rpm during this test, pump flow will be
different than listed GPM/LPM.
12. Observe flow gauge. Flow indication should be approximately 98 L/minute
(26 gallons/minute).
13. Release traction pedal to the neutral position, open flow control valve on
tester, and shut off the engine. Record test results.
14. If flow is less than 87 L/minute (23 gallons/minute), consider the following:
A. The traction pump swash plate is not being rotated fully (e.g., traction
pedal linkage may need adjustment, mow speed limiter is not in the
transport position).
B. The piston (traction) pump needs to be repaired or replaced as necessary.
C. Make necessary repairs before performing additional tests.
15. When testing is complete, disconnect tester and hose kit from pump fitting
and machine hydraulic hose. Reconnect hose to pump fitting.
