This Gehl shop manual covers the 5625, 5625SX, and 5625DX skid loaders from serial number 8868 and later, powered by the Perkins 204-25 diesel. Its 296 pages take you through the whole machine: chassis and lift arms, the drive chains and axles, the T-bar controls, the hydrostatic and main hydraulic systems, the electrical system, and the engine, closing with a full thread by thread torque chart.Each system opens with a troubleshooting guide and moves into removal, testing, adjustment, and installation, with the pressures and clearances a real repair needs. You can run a charge pressure test, check the control valve relief, adjust a stretched drive chain, or diagnose glow plug trouble without guessing. It is a searchable PDF you can open on a phone, tablet, or shop computer, or print for the bench, and it stays with the machine for as long as you own it.

Gehl 5625, 5625SX, 5625DX Common Problems This Manual Covers
Weak lift and tilt
Owners hit weak or dropping lift and tilt as the relief valve and main control valve wear. The Hydraulic System section has the relief pressure test and control valve service.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System p. 191Machine creeps or loses drive
Slow response or drift in travel points to charge pressure or the tandem pump. The Hydrostatic System section covers the case drain test, charge pressure test, and pump service.
Manual Section: Hydrostatic System p. 180Hard starting or no start
Older 5625 machines are prone to long cranking and hard starts from fuel or engine wear. The Engine section provides a troubleshooting guide and service procedures.
Manual Section: Engine p. 254Glow plugs not heating
Cold start trouble often traces to a failed glow plug or relay. The Electrical System section includes glow plug and relay tests along with the QGS control module checks.
Manual Section: Electrical System p. 240Drive chain stretch and slack
Loose or stretched drive chains cause slack and uneven tracking on skid loaders. The Drive section covers chain adjustment, removal, and installation.
Manual Section: Drive p. 61Broken boom equalizer or lift arm play
Heavy round bale work can break boom equalizers and wear lift arm bushings. The Chassis section covers lift arm removal, bushing replacement, and stop adjustment.
Manual Section: Chassis p. 33Frequently Asked Questions
