TESTING and TROUBLESHOOTING

GENERAL

Tests and adjustments should be performed periodically to ensure the power unit is operating at maximum efficiency. A hydraulic circuit tester is recommended for use in isolating problems in both the engine and hydraulic system prior to any power unit disassembly.

TESTING THE HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT.

The following tests can be performed to ensure that the hydraulic pump is supplying the correct flow and pressure and that the system relief valve is operating properly.

During these tests, make sure the engine is warm and operating smoothly. If test results are not as specified, refer to the troubleshooting table given in this section for possible causes. Also, refer to the section on service instructions for repair or replacement of defective parts.

TESTING H.T.M.A. (Hydraulic Tool Manufacturers Association) TYPE I CIRCUITS

An H.T.M.A. Type I Circuit is a circuit that produces 5 gpm/19 lpm at 2000 psi/140 bar. When the throttle actuator is set in the "5" position, the power unit produces 5 gpm/19 lpm at 2000 psi/140 bar.

  1. Set the circuit control lever to the OFF position.
  2. Connect the circuit tester across the tool hose ends.
  3. Fully open the tester restrictor valve.
  4. Start the engine and allow it to run until warm.
  5. Set the engine Throttle Control to the "5" position.
  6. Place the circuit control lever to the ON position. With the engine at medium speed, the test flow gauge should read 5-6 gpm/19-23 lpm.
  7. Slowly close the restrictor valve while watching the pressure gauge. The flow rate should begin at 5 gpm/19 lpm and will drop slightly as the pressure gauge rises. At a pressure of 1900 psi/133 bar the flow rate should read 5 gpm/19 lpm. If it does not, the throttle governor may require adjustment. If a pressure of 1900 psi/133 bar cannot be obtained, the relief valve may require adjustment.

Since the engine is not operating at full rpm, testing or adjusting the relief valve setting is not recommended. Test the relief valve according to the instructions located later in this manual.

TESTING H.T.M.A. (Hydraulic Tool Manufacturers Association) TYPE II CIRCUITS

An H.T.M.A. Type II Circuit is a circuit that produces 8 gpm/30 lpm at 2500 psi/172 bar. When the throttle actuator is set in the "8" position, the power unit produces 8 gpm/30 lpm at 2500 psi/172 bar. If the throttle actuator is set in the "AUTO" position, 8 gpm/30 lpm at 2500 psi/172 bar can also be obtained.

  1. Set the circuit control lever to the OFF position.
  2. Connect the circuit tester across the tool hose ends.
  3. Fully open the tester restrictor valve.
  4. Start the engine and allow it to run until warm.
  5. Set the engine Throttle Control to the "8" position.
  6. Place the circuit control lever to the ON position. With the engine at high speed, the test flow gauge should read 8-9 gpm/30-34 lpm.
  7. Slowly close the restrictor valve while watching the pressure gauge. The flow rate should begin at 8 gpm/30 lpm and will drop slightly as the pressure gauge rises. At a pressure of 1900 psi/133 bar the flow rate should read 8 gpm/30 lpm. If it does not, the throttle governor may require adjustment. If a pressure of 1900 psi/133 bar cannot be obtained, the relief valve may require adjustment.

Test the relief valve according to the instructions located later in this manual.

TESTING THE THROTTLE ACTUATOR

  1. Set the circuit control lever to the OFF position.
  2. Connect the circuit tester across the tool hose ends.
  3. Set the engine Throttle Control to the "AUTO" position.
  4. Fully open the tester restrictor valve.
  5. Start the engine and allow it to run until warm.
  6. Place the circuit control lever to the ON position.
  7. Slowly close the restrictor valve while watching the pressure gauge. As the gauge reaches 600 psi/ 42 bar, the engine should start to SPEED up.
  8. Open the tester restrictor valve while watching the pressure gauge. The engine speed should start to SLOW as the pressure drops below 150 psi/11 bar.

If the engine speed does not react as indicated above, the throttle control or linkage may require adjustment. Check for free movement. Make sure the lever movement near the actuator cylinder is sliding correctly. Movement of the actuator lever can be tested by manually pushing the actuator lever. Notice if the linkage feels sticky or the engine fails to speed up. If neither problem is evident, the actuator cylinder or pressure line from the control valve to the cylinder must be faulty. Repair as required.

ADJUSTING SPEED ACTUATOR CONTROL

  1. Without changing the engine rpm, loosen the hose clamp on the actuator cylinder and slide the cylinder back or forward until the AUTO hole in the cylinder lever aligns with the corresponding hole in the actuator control weldment. Remove the faspin and set the actuator control weldment to AUTO.
  2. While the engine is idling, use a long phillips screwdriver to turn the engine governor adjustment screw about one-quarter turn clockwise to increase engine rpm or counter-clockwise to decrease engine rpm.

TESTING & SETTING THE RELIEF VALVE

The relief valve is set to "crack" open at approximately 2100-2300 psi/145-158 bar and should be fully open at 2500 psi/172 bar. These settings are tested as follows:

  1. Set the circuit control lever to the OFF position.
  2. Connect the circuit tester across the tool hose ends.
  3. Set the engine Throttle Control to the "AUTO" position.
  4. Fully open the tester restrictor valve.
  5. Start the engine and allow it to run until warm.
  6. Place the circuit control lever to the ON position.
  7. Slowly close the restrictor valve while watching the pressure gauge. When the gauge reaches 2000 psi, continue to close the restrictor and watch closely for a small drop in pressure. This small drop in pressure should occur between 2100-2300 psi/145-158 bar and indicates the pressure at which the relief valve "cracks" open. Continue to close the restrictor. The pressure should not exceed 2500 psi/172 bar when the restrictor is fully closed. If the above settings are incorrect, the relief valve requires adjustment or replacement as follows:

TROUBLESHOOTING

If symptoms of poor performance develop, use the chart on the following page to help isolate the problem.

PROBLEM CAUSE REMEDY
Engine will not run. Ignition switch off.
Battery not connected.
Weak battery.
No fuel.
Fuel filter plugged.
Defective spark plugs.
Set the switch to "ON" before pushing control lever to the left.
Attach battery cables, check wires.
Test battery, charge or replace.
Add Fuel.
Replace fuel filter.
Remove plugs, check gap, clean or replace.
Fluid blowing out of fluid reservoir vent. Defective pump seal.
Hydraulic tank overfilled.
Replace pump seal.
Correct the fluid level.
Hydraulic tool won't operate. Control lever setting incorrect.
Incorrect hose connection to tool.
Quick disconnect fittings defective.
Hydraulic fluid level low.
Pump coupling defective.
Relief valve stuck open.
Suction hose kinked.
Automatic throttle not working
Set control lever to "TOOL ON".
Make sure the tool hose circuit goes from right (pressure) fitting to tool and back to the left fitting (return). Fluid always flows from the male to female fittings.
Detach from hose, connect set together and check for free flow.
Check for correct fluid level. Fill using the recommended fluid.
Check power unit between pump and cooler. The coupler should slide only .150 inches between blower and pump.
Adjust or replace valve.
Make sure suction hose from fluid reservoir to pump inlet has a smooth curve.
If tool operates at low engine rpm, set throttle control manually, to 5 or 8 (per tool rating). Later, have the throttle control serviced.
