Case 689G, 689G Telescopic Handler Common Problems This Manual Covers
Case 689G telescopic handler hydraulic cylinders move slowly or not at all, boom won't lift p. 179
Check hydraulic fluid level first. Inspect all lines and fittings for leaks. Verify the transmission pump is delivering at least 60.5 liters/min (64 qt/min). If pressure is low, inspect the relief valve setting and pump for wear. Review the hydraulic system section starting at page 179 for complete pressure specifications.
Manual Section: HydraulicsSteering pulls hard to one side, wheel requires excessive force to turn p. 65
Check hydraulic fluid level in the reservoir. Inspect steering lines for kinks or loose connections. Verify the steering selector valve moves freely, not stuck in one position. Test battery voltage: this machine runs a 12-volt system, and a weak battery will reduce steering pump output. Inspect the spool and sleeve in the control valve for wear or scoring.
Manual Section: SteeringBoom fails to extend or retract smoothly, operation is jerky under load p. 221
Check for air in the hydraulic system by slowly cycling the boom 3 to 5 complete strokes. Inspect the extend cylinder seals for bypassing. Verify hydraulic fluid is clean and at operating level. If the pump is noisy, confirm delivery matches the 60.5 liters/min (64 qt/min) specification before condemning cylinders or control valves.
Manual Section: Mounted Equipment and ChassisBrakes slow to apply, pedal pressure required is excessive in cold mornings p. 145
Inspect the accumulator: it must reach its high-pressure limit before braking is effective. Check that the 12-volt pressure switch is signaling correctly to start the charging pump. Verify all brake lines for leaks or blockage. If the accumulator starts charging but stalls short of the high limit, replace the pump. See the Brakes section at page 145.
Manual Section: BrakesGauge cluster shows erratic readings or dead gauges, temperature sender not responding p. 47
Check the 12-volt supply to the gauge cluster and inspect the wire harness plug for corrosion or disconnection. Test each sender with a multimeter: an open circuit or short indicates a defective sender. Clean all ground connections at the chassis. Replace any gauge showing resistance outside the normal operating range.
Manual Section: ElectricalDrive axle grinding noise when turning corners, oil seeping from planetary hubs p. 107
Drain and inspect axle housing oil for metal particles. Remove the planetary hub cover and check for worn ring or planet gears; total axle gear reduction should be 19.31:1 when assembled correctly. Inspect all axle seals and O-rings. Torque hub bolts to specification after reassembly. See the Power Train section at page 107.
