This Gehl shop manual covers the 5635 and 6635 skid loaders, including the 5635SX, 5635DX, 5635SXT, 5635DXT, 6635SXT, and 6635DXT variants, all powered by the Deutz F4M1011F diesel. Its 188 pages run through the machine: the mainframe and lift arms, the wheel drives and drive chains, the control handles, the hydrostatic and main hydraulic systems, the electrical system, and the engine.Each system opens with a troubleshooting guide and moves into removal, testing, adjustment, and installation, with the pressures, clearances, and torque values a real repair needs. You can chase a loss of hydraulic drive to the engine to pump coupling, test relief pressure, adjust a stretched drive chain, or check the glow control relay. 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 5635–6635 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Sudden loss of hydraulic drive
A stripped or broken engine to pump coupling can cause a sudden loss of hydraulic drive in either direction. The Hydrostatic System section covers troubleshooting, relief valves, and pump service.
Manual Section: Hydrostatic System p. 96Engine bogs with white smoke
A sudden bog with thick white smoke points to a fueling or combustion fault. The Engine section provides a troubleshooting guide and service procedures.
Manual Section: Engine p. 165Weak lift or tilt
Low relief pressure or a worn control valve weakens lift and tilt. The Hydraulic System section has the relief pressure test and control valve service.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System p. 111Drive chain slack
Stretched drive chains cause slack and uneven tracking. The Wheel Drives section covers chain adjustment, removal, and installation.
Manual Section: Wheel Drives p. 48Cold start trouble
Hard cold starts often trace to the glow control relay or its circuit. The Electrical System section covers glow control relay operation and relay tests.
Manual Section: Electrical System p. 153Control handles drift or track poorly
Worn linkage makes the control handles drift or track unevenly. The Controls section covers handle position and tracking adjustment.
Manual Section: Controls p. 58Frequently Asked Questions
