Mustang 920, 930A Common Problems This Manual Covers
Hydraulic reservoir empties from a leak
These loaders are reported losing enough oil to empty the reservoir, usually from worn hoses, loose fittings, or failed seals around the lower lift rams. The hydraulic system section covers pressure checks, leak-down tests, and cylinder service and repair.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System p. 36Oil dripping around the lift rams
Heavy dripping from both sides near the lower rams points to failed cylinder seals or leaking fittings. The system contamination control section gives the hose and fitting torque specifications and procedures needed for a clean, leak-free repair.
Manual Section: System Contamination Control p. 16Loss of drive or the machine creeps
Lost drive power or creeping under load points to the hydrostatic drive. This section covers charge pressure checks, the directional and relief valve combination, the closed loop, and piston pump and drive motor troubleshooting.
Manual Section: Hydrostatic Drive System p. 54Glow plugs not working, hard cold start
A 920 that will not start in the cold with dead glow plugs points to the glow plug circuit, wiring, or a control relay. The electrical system section covers the starting and charging circuits and both the 920 and 930A wiring diagrams.
Manual Section: Electrical System p. 88Drive chain slack or brake drag
Loose drive chains or a dragging brake show up as lost drive or uneven tracking. The chain case section covers chain adjustment with the covers on or removed, chain removal and installation, and brake assembly service.
Manual Section: Chain Case p. 66Steering drifts or will not center
A loader that drifts or will not return to neutral usually needs T-bar and neutral centering adjustment. The steering controls section covers troubleshooting, T-bar adjustment and removal, and neutral centering device service and repair.
Manual Section: Steering Controls p. 28Frequently Asked Questions
