    cat 299d2 xhp overheating

    Our 299D2 XHP overheated as soon as you tried doing any real work with it as soon as we took delivery of the new machine from the dealer. We found an oring and backup rings in the hydraulic reversing cartridge valve had come out of the spool and lodged in the reversing valve for the hydraulic...

    963B mystery hydrostatic leak

    With the guidance of members, I managed to break the track and pull the final drive. Not too bad of a job maybe 3-4 hrs and I didn't even need to remove sprocket segments or the rear track guard, just the sprocket covers. I decided to leave the machine on the ground and back it off the track...

    963B mystery hydrostatic leak

    Hi Nige. I do actually have both the parts manual you referenced and service manual SENR5302-04. I was a little confused if these were the correct manual because the cover references 9BL1-Up. My machine is 9BL02214. Is CAT's reference of 9BL1-UP actually 9BL00001-? The manuals seem to match...

    963B mystery hydrostatic leak

    I got an opportunity to check the planetary drive oil level and the planetary level was correct/not overfilled. I guess that rules out the brake leaking into the planetary so the options are: 1. the brake leaking externally towards the motor shaft 2. either of the the brake lines or o ring...

    963B mystery hydrostatic leak

    I have a mysterious hydrostatic leak on a 963B track loader. The oil level in the transmission drops when it is operated and the only evidence of external oil leak I can find is coming out of frame weldment all the way up by the forward cab pivot (behind the lift arm pivot pin) The machine has...
