To install a hydraulic pump on an excavator, technical know-how and skill are necessary. If you are not confident with doing the installation by yourself, it is advisable to hire an expert for assistance. Here are some steps to follow when installing a hydraulic pump on your excavator.
- First, locate the hydraulic pump on your excavator. Normally this can be at the front of the engine or underneath it.
- Next, remove the old hydraulic pump from the excavator itself. This requires disconnection of all hoses and electrical connections that attach to the pump. Make sure you label each connection so that you can put them back correctly while attaching the new pump later.
- After removing the old pump clean up where to place new one with degreaser which will get rid of any dirt or debris found there.
- The next step involves installing the new hydraulic pump after cleaning up the area. Properly align it with mounting bolts and tighten them securely. Ensure all hoses and electrical connections are properly connected to it too.
- Then fill in hydraulic reservoir with appropriate type and amount of hydraulic fluid as specified by manufacturer. This varies depending on make and model of your excavator; therefore check out owner’s manual for right details.
- Now test this newly installed unit. Start engine, engage hydraulic system and listen for any leaks unusual noises or vibrations coming out of machine. Everything is set? Well done! A brand new hydraulic pump has been successfully installed onto your excavator!
