JCB 525–537 Common Problems This Manual Covers
JCB Loadall 525-58 hydraulic warning light activates and machine will not lift or extend normally after startup p. 42
Stop the engine immediately as directed on page 42 to reset the warning and rectify the fault. Check the hydraulic tank level and inspect the filter. When replacing the filter, remember installation torque is hand-tight only according to page 120.
Manual Section: OperationStiff boom operation and premature wear at the carriage lock pins during heavy material handling p. 88
Clean all grease fittings before applying lubrication. Pump two strokes of lithium-based grease into each pin bush daily or every 10 operating hours as specified on page 88. Inspect the carriage tilt ram and sway ram for leaks during this routine.
Manual Section: MaintenanceHigh engine oil consumption and poor performance after long periods of cold weather morning warmups p. 55
Put the machine into a normal work cycle immediately after startup. Do not allow the engine to idle for extended periods, as warned on page 55, because gentle running causes piston bore glazing. Torque the engine oil drain plug to 34 Nm (25 lbf ft) during your next fluid change.
Manual Section: OperationEngine temperature gauge climbs into the red zone during continuous heavy load transport operations p. 108
Inspect the expansion bottle when the engine is completely cold. Verify the coolant level is exactly 1/3 full as shown on page 108. Top up with a 55 percent antifreeze mixture and check the radiator grille for dirt or debris blocking airflow to the core.
