Does anyone know where I can get a parts or service book for this unit? I found some old series 3 books but believe there are some significant differences.
Thanks I reached out to them. I can’t find anything other than a sales brochure for this specific unit online. I’m willing to pay but can’t swing a 500$+ hard copy off eBay.
I think those machines are closed center and have low pilot pressure when nothing is activated. Something is causing yours to not to go higher than standby pilot pressure. I don't know if it's electrical or hyd. that activates the load sense line. I'm sure Jade would have some ideas to troubleshoot your problem.
Load sense line is hydraulic controlled I removed the load sense valve block- all the shuttle valves and seats are OK I blew air through the feedback line to the pump didn’t seem to be any issues with the load sense.
I wonder if the pump has failed, the shaft seal looks to have recently blown out maybe due to increased case pressure?
Will definitely give Jade company a call this week. I did message them about manuals
Series 3 used open center hydraulics. They went to load sensing with series 4. Not a ton of change between series 3 & 4. I wonder if putting a bit of oil pressure on the load sensing line would troubleshoot if it’s the pump?
