Gehl SL3635, SL3935 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Slow or intermittent lift and tilt
Lift and tilt that respond slowly or not at all often mean low hydraulic oil, trapped air, or a leaking hose or fitting. The Hydraulic System chapter covers checking oil, purging air, and inspecting the lift and tilt circuits.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System p. 93Auxiliary hydraulics will not operate
If an attachment function is dead, the restraint bar may be raised or the spool lock solenoid or its wiring may be faulty. The Electrical System chapter covers relay and solenoid testing.
Manual Section: Electrical System p. 126Overheating or power loss under load
Intake leaks, loose clamps, or cracked rubber elbows let unfiltered air in and cut engine performance. The Engine chapter covers the air cleaner, intake, and cooling components.
Manual Section: Engine p. 143Jerky hydraulics or cavitation noise
Air trapped in the hydraulic circuits or a low reservoir causes noise and jerky motion. The Hydraulic System chapter directs cycling the lift and tilt cylinders at full stroke to clear air and topping off the oil.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System p. 93Weak hydrostatic drive
Sluggish or uneven drive can come from low charge pressure or worn pump relief valves. The Hydrostatic System chapter includes the case drain test and the charge pressure test.
Manual Section: Hydrostatic System p. 77Drive chain wear and slack
Worn or loose drive chains cause drivetrain noise and lost motion. The Wheel Drives chapter covers drive chain adjustment, removal, and installation.
Manual Section: Wheel Drives p. 41Frequently Asked Questions
