Mustang ML 48T Common Problems This Manual Covers
Weak or stalled loader hydraulics
Low or contaminated oil, a clogged filter, or pump and valve wear leave the loader arm slow or unresponsive. The hydraulic system section covers the test report, control valve connections, and work hydraulics circuit.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System p. 139Overheating or loss of power under load
Low coolant, a clogged cooler, or a dirty air or fuel filter can leave the Deutz engine overheating or down on power. The engine section covers the F4M 2011 overview, oil cooling, and fuel system.
Manual Section: Engine p. 63Steering pulls or responds poorly
A machine that will not track straight or responds poorly to steering inputs may have a steering circuit or servostat fault. The steering section covers the 5 mph and 25 mph steering circuits and hydraulic connections.
Manual Section: Steering p. 131Spongy brakes that need bleeding
Air in the brake circuit gives a soft pedal and weak braking. The brakes section covers the brake circuit, brake diagram, and the correct service brake bleeding procedure.
Manual Section: Brakes p. 127Weak drive or power train fault
A loader slow to move or lacking drive power may have a variable pump or hydraulic motor issue. The power train section covers the variable-displacement pump and the hydraulic motor connections and control element.
Manual Section: Power Train p. 79Electrical faults, relays, or fuses
Blown fuses, failed relays, or wiring faults cause intermittent or dead circuits. The electrical section covers measuring methods, cable color coding, relays, and the fuse box.
Manual Section: Electrical System p. 157Frequently Asked Questions
