Yanmar ViO70 (US) Common Problems This Manual Covers
Yanmar ViO70 hydraulic pump whining under load and boom fails to raise or extend.
Remove the pump and measure the clearance between the outside diameter of the piston and inside diameter of the cylinder block as shown on page 117. Replace components if the clearance exceeds 0.0020 in. (0.050 mm) to restore lifting power.
Manual Section: 5 Hydraulic Equipment p. 117Left travel stick unresponsive or machine tracks unevenly during forward and reverse travel.
Inspect the track motor solenoid and controller for damage. Torque the track motor solenoid mounting screws to 2.53 to 3.25 ft-lbf. (3.43 to 4.41 N·m) following the guidelines on page 116. Verify the track deviation remains less than 11.8 in. (300 mm) after adjustment.
Manual Section: 5 Hydraulic Equipment p. 116Engine overheating quickly during operation despite normal coolant levels in the expansion tank.
Test the cooling system by heating the thermostat in water. Verify it actuates between 157.1 to 162.5°F (69.5 to 72.5°C) as detailed on page 408. Check the V-belt tension on page 497 and adjust deflection to 0.276 to 0.354 in. (7 to 9 mm) under 98 N finger pressure.
Manual Section: Diesel Engine p. 408Hydraulic system leaking fluid at the main high pressure hose seals or cylinder connections.
Clean the leaking joints and inspect all high pressure rubber hoses for degradation. Replace any damaged 0.37 in. nominal diameter hoses rated for a working pressure of 2986 PSI (20595 kPa) as specified on page 10. Torque the hydraulic system adjust screws to 20.2 to 23.2 ft-lbf. (27.4 to 31.4 N·m).
