Part of the John Deere Repair Manuals.
A hydrostatic motor that drops off pressure halfway through a lift cycle is not a problem you diagnose from memory. The John Deere 326E service manual PDF, factory document TM13093X19, puts all 345 pages of the repair manual for this skid steer loader on your screen, covering the hydrostatic drive, main hydraulic system, loader frame and attachment coupler, engine removal, and the operator's station. Torque tables run from unified inch and metric cap screws through O-ring face seal and four bolt flange fittings, so every line you reconnect goes back to spec. Set the hydrostatic motor mounting cap screws to 130 N·m (95 lb.-ft.), and replace a brake disk once it wears below 1.60 mm (0.063 in.). Guess at either figure and the bill is a second teardown plus whatever you ruined the first time. Bookmarks and a live text layer put the section you need two clicks from the cover.
