Hello Gentleman,
First post here, so lets see if someone can help me with my dozer.
Bought a used D5H sn 1DD06 built in 1995. Machine is pretty decent for the age, engine good, starts well, runs well, no leaks and no overheating issues.
Hydraulics fine, just few sweat leaks, controls few play, again acording to age, hour metter say 12k hours.
Transmission is a 3 speed powershift, and this is the source of the problems in this machine...
When it gets hot (up to temperature) it starts to show problems when shutling between foward and reward, it starts by being lazy engaging , and after 30min working it goes completly without engaging, it does not completly stops but gets worst and worst to get it on gear, once on gear didn´t found problem shifting from 2nd to 3rd or to 1st, but once it goes neutral it gets dificult to get it on gear.
Another thing is the braking, pedal braking it just loks , does not have a fine braking...(if i push the pedal it just brake, not they are smoth when new, but this is too much) Park brake works normal, as far i can notice.
Alarm light goes on after some 20min... don´t know from what ... as the gauges are suspected , only coolant temp is showing. and the alternator is not charging. got to fix it.
Done nothing, cause don´t know where to start. I´m pretty familiar with mechanics, but not with dozers.
Apreciate some imput.
Thanks
