Part of the John Deere Repair Manuals.
Technical Manual TM1419 walks you through testing, diagnosing, and adjusting every major system on the John Deere 210C, 310C, and 315C backhoe loader across 487 pages. This John Deere 210C, 310C, 315C technical manual PDF gives the electrical system the largest share of the book, with power and ground circuits, starting, charging, gauge, and display/logic module circuits drawn out so you can trace a dead indicator back to its source. Hydraulic schematics follow close behind, pairing theory of operation with the operational checks, diagnostic tables, and pressure tests that close out each repair. Drain and refill the hydraulic reservoir at 30 L (8 gal), run a 10 micron replaceable return oil filter, and fill the torque converter and reverser with 7.6 L (8 qt). Bookmarked and text searchable, it stays on whatever screen you carry out to the loader.

John Deere 210C, 310C, 315C Common Problems This Manual Covers
John Deere 310C won't move forward or reverse after sitting, then works again after shifting
Check the reverser oil level with the engine running at idle, then clean the reverser suction screen. Foaming oil means the level is too low or too high, so correct it, and refill with John Deere HY-GARD transmission and hydraulic oil (page 56). Verify reverser shift linkage adjustment before condemning the clutch packs.
Manual Section: Power Train p. 269Steering gets stiff or locks up for a few seconds, then frees up on its own
Check the hydraulic reservoir level cold, before the first move of the day, and look for foam on the oil. Inspect every suction line clamp and fitting for air leaks, then replace the 10 micron return filter element. Trace the circuit on the hydraulic schematic and test steering relief pressure.
Manual Section: Hydraulic SystemEngine oil level keeps rising on the dipstick and smells like diesel fuel
Measure the oil level on the dipstick and smell it, then compare against the 8.5 L (9 qt) crankcase capacity listed on page 19 for the 210C. Oil above full with a diesel smell means fuel in the oil: replace the oil, then remove and test the injection nozzles and check the injection pump.
Manual Section: Engine/Operation Test p. 85Engine loses power and dies after running the tank low or changing the fuel filter
Fill the tank first; page 28 lists 98 L (26 gal) for the 310C. Then bleed the system: crack the filter bleed screw, work the hand primer until fuel runs solid with no bubbles, then bleed at the injection lines. Inspect the return line fittings and hoses for restriction before condemning the injection pump.
Manual Section: Engine/Operation Test p. 85Loader and backhoe functions run slow or jerky under load, hydraulics feel weak when hot
Test the main relief circuit at the pump outlet with the oil at full operating temperature. On the 310C it should hold 16 900 to 18 600 kPa (2450 to 2700 psi). If it falls short, replace the return filter element and reservoir oil before pulling the pump.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System p. 349Frequently Asked Questions
What are the torque specifications for the wheel cap screws on a John Deere 210C?
For the 210C, the front wheel cap screws for 7.50-8.00 x 16 and 11 L x 15 tires are torqued to 136 +20 -27 N·m (100 +15 -20 lb-ft). For 12 x 16.5 tires, the torque is 300 +110 -40 N·m (221 +81 -29 lb-ft). Rear wheel cap screws for 14.9 x 24, 16.9 x 24, and 17.5 L x 24 tires are torqued to 136 +20 -27 N·m (100 +15 -20 lb-ft). p. 50
What is the engine oil capacity for a John Deere 210C?
The engine oil capacity for the 210C, including the filter, is 8.5 liters (9 quarts). p. 19
What is the fuel tank capacity for a John Deere 310C?
The fuel tank capacity for the 310C is 98 liters (26 gallons). p. 28
What is the correct belt deflection for the alternator belt on the engine?
The correct belt deflection for a new belt is 5/16 inch at 25 lbs of force. For a used belt (cold), the deflection should be 7/16 inch at 25 lbs of force. p. 116
What is the procedure for checking the hydraulic oil warm-up?
To warm up the hydraulic oil, put the FNR lever in neutral, engage the park brake, and run the engine at fast idle. Raise the loader boom to full height, then hold the lever and stall the hydraulics for one minute to heat the oil. Cycle the function to equalize temperature in the circuits being tested, repeating until the oil is at test specifications. p. 433
