Performing minor repairs may require removal from the vehicle/machine. Thoroughly clean the unit

Follow these general procedures.
Remove the unit
Prior to performing major repairs, remove the unit from the vehicle/machine. Chock the wheels on the
vehicle or lock the mechanism to inhibit movement. Be aware that hydraulic fluid may be under high
pressure and/or hot. Inspect the outside of the HST and fittings for damage. Cap hoses and plug ports
after removal to prevent contamination.
Keep it clean
Cleanliness is a primary means of assuring satisfactory HST life, on either new or repaired units. Clean the
outside of the HST thoroughly before disassembly. Take care to avoid contamination of the system ports.
Cleaning parts using a clean solvent wash and air drying is usually adequate.
As with any precision equipment, keep all parts free of foreign materials and chemicals. Protect all
exposed sealing surfaces and open cavities from damage and foreign material. If left unattended, cover
the transmission with a protective layer of plastic.
Lubricate moving parts
During assembly, coat all moving parts with clean hydraulic fluid. This assures that these parts are
lubricated during start-up.
Replace all O-rings and gaskets
Danfoss recommends you replace all O-rings, seals, and gaskets during repair.Lightly lubricate all O-rings
with clean petroleum jelly prior to assembly. Grease must be soluable in hydraulic fluid.
Secure the unit
For major repair, place the unit in a stable position with the shaft pointing downward. It is necessary to
secure the transmission while removing and torquing components and fasteners.
