(11) Supply port for the charge pump

The oil reservoir is not vented. The oil reservoir contains a reverse flow element. Pressure is relieved when the cap is loosened. Hydraulic oil tank (1) is designed with internal baffle (2). Internal baffle (2) improves the oil circulation in hydraulic oil tank (1). Internal baffle (2) provides a continuous flow of hydraulic oil to the charge pump. Supply port (11) is provided in hydraulic oil tank (1) for the charge pump. Supply port (6) provides oil flow to the fan drive. Supply port (7) provides oil flow to the Hydraulic and steering pump. Supply port (5) provides oil flow for the supplemental steering pump.

Implement return port (9) and case drain return port (8) combine the oil into the manifold. The manifold routes the oil through the bottom of filter element (3) and inside of filter element (3). The filter element is positioned below the oil level in order to reduce turbulence.

If filter element (3) becomes full of debris, oil cannot pass through the filter element. The restriction to oil flow causes a pressure increase which opens bypass valve (4). A pressure of 35 kPa (5 psi) will cause the bypass valve to open. Now, the oil is allowed directly into hydraulic tank (1). When oil bypasses filter element (3), debris in the oil will cause damage to other system components. Correct maintenance must be used in order to make sure that the filter element does not stop the flow of clean oil to the hydraulic system.
