Yanmar ViO10, ViO10 (EP) Common Problems This Manual Covers
Yanmar ViO10 left-hand track slipping or refusing to move straight during travel operation p. 162
Inspect the rubber crawler tension clearance as shown on page 162. Measure the gap at the center track roller. Adjust the tension until the clearance is 0.31 to 0.51 in. (8 to 13 mm). Tighten the grease nipple valve to 36.1 ft-lbf (49 N-m) on page 164.
Manual Section: Checking and adjusting rubber crawler tensionEngine oil pressure warning indicator light flashing on the dashboard shortly after morning startup
Replace the engine oil filter every 200 service hours as indicated on page 148. Drain the oil pan, install a new filter, and tighten it exactly 2/3 of a turn after seal contact on page 185. Fill the engine with 3.2 Qts (3.0 L) of fresh oil.
Manual Section: Engine and electrical equipment troubleshootingSteam venting from radiator grille and water temperature alarm sounding under heavy load
Check the troubleshooting procedures for high water temperature alarms. Inspect the fan belt and adjust the slack to 0.4 to 0.6 in (10 to 15 mm) per page 178. Verify the radiator contains 2.2 Qts (2.1 L) of coolant.
Manual Section: Engine and electrical equipment troubleshootingHydraulic fluid dripping from the main pump outlet hoses near the control valve p. 153
Inspect the main pump outlet hoses for cracks or wear. Replace these hoses every 2 years or every 4000 service hours, whichever occurs first, as listed on page 153. Check the hydraulic oil tank capacity and refill with up to 2.1 Gals (7.8 L) of approved fluid.
Manual Section: Replacing Essential Parts PeriodicallyFrequently Asked Questions
Torque specs for Yanmar ViO10 engine bolts?
For engine bolts, which typically use fine threads, the tightening torque varies by size. For example, an M14x1.5 fine thread bolt should be tightened to 94 to 108.5 ft•lbf (127.5 to 147.1 N•m), and an M16x1.5 fine thread bolt to 155.5 to 177.2 ft•lbf (210.8 to 240.3 N•m).
How to reset Yanmar ViO10 hydraulic pressure?
To relieve internal hydraulic pressure before servicing, slowly loosen any plugs, screws, or connecting parts of the hoses gradually. This prevents oil from spouting out due to residual pressure. The system relief set pressure for the hydraulic system is 2986 PSI (20.6 MPa)x2.
What are the replacement specifications for Hydraulic hoses?
The Main pump outlet hose (P1, P2, to C/V) should be replaced periodically. The recommended replacement interval for this hydraulic hose is every 2 years or every 4000 service hours, whichever occurs first.
What are the replacement specifications for Track tension components?
If the rubber crawler tension is habitually loose even after grease injection, it indicates that the grease adjuster may be internally defective. In such cases, it is necessary to replace either the rubber crawler or the grease adjuster, and you should contact your dealer for assistance.
