Gehl RS5-34, RS6-34 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Loss of lift or reach performance
A handler that will not raise, lower, or handle a load normally usually has a hydraulic fault such as low fluid, a pump or valve issue, or cylinder leakage. The Hydraulic System section covers troubleshooting, pressure testing, and adjustment procedures.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System p. 137Boom chain stretch and worn wear pads
Uneven boom extension or noise often comes from stretched leaf chains or worn boom section bearings. The Telescoping Boom section covers single and double leaf chain adjustment and inner boom section service.
Manual Section: Telescoping Boom p. 237Sluggish or heavy steering
Steering that feels heavy or slow to respond points to a steering control valve or hydraulic supply issue. The Steering section covers steering control valve removal and installation so you can service the circuit.
Manual Section: Steering p. 87Poor power or stalling under load
Weak power, sluggish response, or shutdown under load can trace to a fuel-system restriction, dirty filters, or an engine fault. The Engine section covers engine removal and installation along with related service.
Manual Section: Engine p. 29No start or electrical faults
Starting problems and dead circuits usually need the schematic and a structured test procedure. The Electrical section provides the electrical schematic, troubleshooting, testing and adjustment procedures, and battery removal and installation.
Manual Section: Electrical p. 57Transmission or drive trouble
Loss of drive or rough shifting on these telehandlers points to transmission or axle problems. The Power Train section covers transmission removal and installation plus front and rear axle service.
