tional syst e m of the tractor. The information is
divided into groups within each s e ction.

information such as the principles of 4-cycl e
engine operation, carburetion and ignition hav e
been omitted , Such information can be found in
any good library and is recommended reading for
the new serviceman before consulting this man­
ual for service proc e dures .

functions lists possible troubles, the ir causes
and how to con ee t them. Under specific com­
ponents th e se troubles are analyzed to help the
s e rviceman understand what is causing the pl'ob­
1em so he can correct it rather than just r e ­
place parts and have the s am e probl e m kee p
r ec urrin g.
Spe cifica tions and special tools are found at
th e end of th e Groups for e asy refer e nce.
This manual can b e kept in its own cover, or

al rack or behind the service manual tab in your
La wn and Garden Parts and Servic e Binder.

c eiv e them. Your service manual always will be
up-to-date and be a valuable ass e t in your s e rvice

SERIAL NUMBERS

Each lawn and garden tractor is assigned an
individual serial number. Serial numbers are
writt e n in parentheses throughout this manual for
the reasons shown below. Only the last four digits
( 3551-

tors and the last six digits for later tractors.
All serial number references are tractor serial

When a serial number appears before the dash, the design Change was introduced
beginning with that serial number and is still current.

COMPRESSTION TEST - Continue d
Set throttle and choke v3.1vc in wide open pOtii­
tion by raising throttle level' all the way and
lowering choke lever.
Install compression gauge in cylinder, Figure
8. Follow manufacturer's recomnl"ndations for
installing and reading compression tester.
Tes I C ollclus iOJlS

An engine in top operating condition will read
110 to 120 psi when engine is cranked approxi­
mately 1000 rpm.
A compression test above 120 psi, indicates
excessive cleposits in the combustion chamber or
on the piston.
reading lower than 100 psi indicates leak­
at the cylinder heau gaske t, piston rings or
valves. The ell[!7.nc should be reconciilimlP:d if
COIIi/)1't?ssiofi (alls belm/! ] 00 psi.
A

Fig, 9-Checki ll9 C ronkca." Vacuum

3 gC

To determine whether the rings or the val ves
ar e at fault, pour about one tablespoonful of
heavy oil into the spark plug hole. Crank the en­
gine several revolutions to spread the oil and re­
peat the compression test.
The oil will temporarily seal leakage around
the piston rings. Ii the same approximate com­
pression reading is obtained, the rings are sat­
isfa c tory. but the valves are leaking or the pis­
ton is damaged. If the compression has increased
considerably over the original reaclings, there is
leakage past the rings.
CRANKCASE VACUUM TEST
The crankshaft breather maintains a partial
vacuum in the crankcase when engine is operat­
in g; properly.
Conn e ct water U-tube manometer to oil filter
hole in cylinder bl OCk, Fi i-'1Jr c 9. T, ' ,tel' must
hang vertical as shown. Start and run rngine at
1200-1700 rpm. Allow engim? to warm up auel
obs e rve r e aclin~ un ,c:cale. Follow manuiacturcl's
recommendations for install a ti on, tl':--tiIlg and
compe ns a tion for the effect o[ altitude on the
g a uge t·eading.

Test COllc/usions

Proper crankcase vacuum [o r both the K161
and K181 cng'ines is 5-inch e s to 10-inches vlter
column.
A crankcase vacuum n! ; \din~ :. lower than in­
dicated above is most likely clue to a l(,~ll . i. ng
breather valve or improperly assembled br0;,tlJ­
er. S· (> Group 10 anc! carefully rc- :.lscH:; mble ;111
breathe r parts. A low vacuum reading may al -..; o
be caus e d by leaky valvC's , c n ' ~ ine bll l\\I-llv 1)1'
worn oil seals.
If the crankcase is Jound to be pressurized
rather than have a vacuum, chances an' that t he
br e ather plate has been a::,sernbled backwards
or the breather filb'c is plug~ ',::;d.

Engines with zero vaC1 11 ,m or pressuri ze d

S'em Corrosion

Valve stern corrOSion is caused by moisture
finding its way into the eng ine. Moisture in th e
fuel-air mixture can condense insid e the engine
when engine is stopped before it has had a chanc e
to warm up.
Valve corrosion can also oc c ur during stor­
a?;e when the en?;ine has not been run for Some
time. Foggin(!; o r pouring oil in the co mbustion
chamber before storing will prevent valve corro­
s ion.

Litho in U.S .A.

Also check for impr oper valve timing by
checking; a nd correctin~r, va lv e clearance.
Worn valve guides or valve springs can alsu
cause overheated valves.
Val ves running hot can also be caused by im­
proper spark plu?; or overheated spark plugs
which cause pre-ignition or a lean fuel mixture.

F ig. 17-Hole Burned in Piston Caused by
Pre-Igni tion

Pre-ignition is the igniting of the fuel-air
mixture prior to the regular ignition spark.
Pre-ignition causes severe internal shock re­
sulting in pings, vibration, detonation and power
loss. Severe damage to piston, rings and valves
results from pre-ignition.
Wilen pre-ignition is suspected and detected.
check and correct the followin g possible causes:

Bent

or TWI s ted C Ol1l1CC t l n

Rod

Check rod and piston alignment when a piston
shows a diagonal wear patt e rn extending across
the skirt of th e piston. Contact with cylinder
wall shows on bottom of skirt at left and ring
lands on the right.
A cylinder bored at an a ngle to the crankshaft
co uld also cause improper ring contact with the
cylinder wall.
This condition can cause:

1. 	 Internal carbon depOSits which remain
incandesc ent.
2. 	 Incorr ec t spa rk plug (high heat rang·e) .
3. 	 Broken ceramic in spark plug.
4. 	 Sharp edges on valv es or elsewhere in
the combustion chamber.

Litho in U.S.A .

1. 	 Rapid piston wear.
2. 	 Uneven piston wear.
3. 	 Excessive oil consumption .

INSPECTING CRANKSHAFT

-

Wipe crankshaft dry and check general con­
clition. Clean up thr eads on end of shaft if nec­
essary. If crankshaft journal indicates wea r be­
yond specified limits or if journal is scored,
take the crankshaft to a competent auto m otive
shop to turn th e crankpin down O.OlO-inch. An
underSize connectin~ rod and cap must then be
installed . THIS IS IMPORT ANT. Do not just
replace a crankShaft having a l)ad journal.
Turnin g down th e journal and installin g a new

Cause d by Lo ck 01 Lubricat ion 


Lack of lubrication or irnpr oper lubrication
can cause the connecting rod and cap to seize
t o the crankshaft and may even cause rod
particles to become imbedded in th e hardened
steel crankshaft. When the rod and cap seize
to the crankshaft, the connecting rod and piston
may both brake with shattering force causing
oth er interior damage. When this happens in­
spect block carefully for cracks and breakage

sure all parts are intact and operate freely.
Check condition of flywei ght springs. If ca mshaft
needs attention, see Gruup 20 for camshaft and
governor service.
INSPE CTING MAIN BEARINGS
Main bearin gs turn in an oil mist and will
not normally require replaCing. Check for un­
usual signs of wear such as race turnin g with
bea ring or bea rinr; deflection caused by excess ive
eng in e lu gg in g. R e fer to Bearing Analysis below.
BEARING ANALYSIS
The caus es of bearing failure must be in den ti­
fied and understood in order to app ly th (l proper
corrective measures.

Minor increase in gap c learance ca n be made
by hi ing the ends of the ring but this must be done
accurately on equipment made for this purpose.
Too much end clearance indicates that wrong
rings are being used or cylinder is bored too

The K161 En g ine used in 110 Tr ac tors
-3550) and K181 Engine used in Tra c tors
3551-40000) have spark advance camshaft,
Figure 2.
Weights on the camshaft gear actuate the
breaker point cam, which in turn retards th e
ignition timing during the cranking cycle. As
engine reaches 500-600 rpm, timing is advanced
and engine operates in the standard manner a t
all higher speeds.
AUTOMATIC COMPRESSION RELEASE
CAMSHAFT

Fi g. 4-ACR Opera/ion

Automatic c ompression release provides a
reduction in cranking effort by holding the ox ­
haust valve open slightly during the first part of
the compression stroke. This allows part of tile
fuel-air mixture to es cape, lowering the Co m­
pression pressure, Figclre 4. This fe a ture is
especially valuable during cold we a ther starting .

K181 Engines in 110 Tra c tors (40001-100,000)
ha ve the automatic compression release cam­
shaft, Figure 3.

Litho in U.S.A.

By releasing compression, the pressure of the
burning mixture is reduced sufficiently for the
flywheel to carry the engine over top dead center.
This prevents "ki c k-back" and eliminates th e
need for the spark retard mechanism.
When the engine speed reaches approximately
650 rpm, centrifugal force disengages the ACR
allowing the engine to operate in the usual man­
ner at all higher speeds, with no loss of powe r.

ENGINE ANALYSIS 

PRELIMINARY ENGINE CHECKS

A complete guide for diagnosing engine mal­
functions appears on page 25-4. However, the
majority of engine trouble reports are of a minor
non-chronic nature and are usually due to elec­
trical or fuel system difficulties. First make the
c hecks listed below to isolate the majority of
engine problems.

If the engine still does not start, or starts but
does not run properly, make the compression
test on this page and the vacuum test On page
25-3.

PRELIMINARY ENGINE TESTS

The following preliminary e ngine tests are
recommended to detect and isol a te possible mal­
functions before proceeding with further diag­
nosis. These tests are especially important whe n
engine is burning oil, loosing power or runni ng
erratically and when carburetion and ignition ad­
justments do not correct the condition.
COMPRESSION TEST

Fig . 2-Checking Spork ot P/uq

Check spark, Figure 2, whenever engine will
not start. If engine will not crank, follow diag­
nosing procedure on page 25-4.

The HHIOO Engines are equipped with an in­
stamatic EZEE-start compression release cam­
shaft. They will be referred to as "EZEE-start"
in Section 20 of this service manual. The EZEE­
start feature releases compression pressure
during lower cranking speeds. It is important to
crank the engine at 1000 rpm, or more to obtain
an accurate test. The EZEE-start mechanism is
disengaged when the tachometer reads approxi­
mately 650 rpm.
When the engine is operable in the tractor,
check compression as follows.

Remove ignition cable from spark plug and in­
stall adaptor or ordinary paper clip. Hold ap­
proximately 1/4 inch away from grounded engine
shrouding while cranking the engine.
If there 1s no spark at the adaptor or a weak
spark, the trouble is in the electrical system. If
the battery and spark plug are good and all elec­
trical connections are tight, the trouble most
likely is in the breaker points and condenser.
Clean or replace points and adjust gap. If break­
er points are burned, replace the condenser also.
If there is good spark between the adaptor and
the grounded surface, the problem is in the fuel­
air system. If gas tank is full, check shut-off
valve on sediment bowl and gas lines to carbu­
retor to be certain gas is getting to carburetor.
Open carburetor valves as instructed in Section
30, Group 10. Connect high tension wire tospark
plug and crank engine. Choke as necessary. If
engine still does not start, refer to "Diagnosing

Malfunctions" on page 25-4 to check for internal
difficulties.

Fig. 3- Testing Engine Compression

Depress clutch-brake pedal and set parking
brake. Be sure oil in crankcase is at proper leve l
and battery is properly Charged.

NOTE: Be sure tractor drives are all disen­
gaged. Run engine until warm., then s top the en­
gine.
Remove spark plug. Also remove air filter
for most accurate test.

25-3

Set throttle and choke valves in wide open po­
sition by raising throttle lever all the way and
lowering choke lever.
Install compression gaug~ in cylinder, Figure
3. Follow manufacturer's recommendations for
installing and reading compression tester.

Test Conclusions
An engine in top operating condition will read
60 to 110 psi when engine is cranked approxi­
mately 1000 rpm.
A compression test above 110 psi, indic3tes
excessive deposits in the combustion chamber
or on the piston.
A reading lower than 60 psi indicates leakage
a t the cylinder head gasket, piston rings or
valves. Engine should be reconditioned if com­
pression falls below 60 psi.
To determine whether the rings or the valves
are at fault, pour about one tablespoonful of
heavy oil into the spark plug hole. Crank the en­
gine several revolutions to spread the oil and
repeat the compression test.
The oil will temporarily seal leakage around
the piston rings. If the same approxim3te com­
pression reading is obtained, the rings are satis­
factory, but the valves are leaking or the piston
is damaged. If the compression has increased
considerably over the original readings, there is
leakage past the rings.

Fig. -I-Checking Crankcase Vacuum

Test Conclusions
Proper crankcase vacuum for the HH 100 En­
gine is 7 inches to 12 inches water column.
A crankcase vacuum reading lower than indi­
cated above is most likely due to a leaking
breather valve or improperly assembled breath­
er. See Group 30 and carefully reassemble
breather parts as shown. A low vacuum reading
may also be caused by leaky valves, engine blow­
by or worn oil seals.
If the crankcase is found to be pressurized
rather than having a vacuum, the breather filter
may be plugged.

CRANKCASE VACUUM TEST
The crankshaft breather maintains a partial
vacuum in the crankcase when engine is oper­
ating properly.
Connect water U-tube manometer to oil filler
hole in cylinder block, Figure 4. Tester must
hang vertical as shown. Start and run engine at
1200-1700 rpm. Allow engine to warm up and ob­
serve reading on scale. Follow manufacturer's
recommendations for installation, testing and
compensation for the effect of altitude on the
gauge reading.

Litho in U.S.A.

Engines with zero vacuum or pressurized
crankcase will likely be pumping oil into the com­
bustion chamber or out the breather or oil seals.
This can be detected by watching for excessive
exhaust smoke, engine overheating or oil leakage
outside the engine.

CHECKING VALVE CLEARANC E

M 5S70

Fig. 21 - Re mov ing Exhaust Valve Scot Insert

To remove exhaust valve seat insert, use
extractor, Figure 21, or a valve seat puller.
Clean seat area thoroughly before installing new
ins e rt. If extractor is not available, break insert
and drive out.
The exhaust valve insert is retained by a press
fit only. Chill both the insert and driving tool
in dry ice before pressing insert into block.

F i g. 22-Check ing Valve Clea ronce

Valve grinding changes the lifter and valve
clearance. After grinding or installing new
valves, check clearance as follows:
1. Rotate crankshaft until piston is top dead
center (end of compression stroke) and crank­
shaft keyway is at exactly 12 o'clock (top) pos i­
tion. If breaker pOints are properly adjusted,
they will be open at this time. It is important
that this procedure be followed to insure that the
exhaust lifter is NOT riding on the EZEE-start
mechanism.

2. Insert valves in their guides and hold valves
firmly on seats.
3. Check clearance between bottom of each
valve stem and its lifter with a feeler gauge,
Figure 22. Refer to "Specifications," page 30-11,
for proper valve clearance . Grind off tip of
valve stem in a valve resurfacing machine set
to grind a perfectly square face. Grind tip of
stem until proper clearance is obtained.

REPLACING GOVERNOR ROD BEARING
Th e cylinder cover used in the engine for 112
Tra c tors (

replaced when excessive waar is noticed.
The cylinder cover used in the engine for 112
Tractors (5645) does not have a replace­
a ble bearing in the governor rod hole. However,
the surface will normally not show much wear.

REPAIR

When diagnosis indicates the carburetor
should b e cl ean ed, disassemble the carburetor
before placing it in the cleaning solution to make
Sure th e solution r eaches all surfac es and pa rt s.
Always insta ll all the pa rt s in the r epair kit

DISASSEMBLING CARBURETOR

H ; ''''

Fig. I-Cutaway View of Carburetor

Fuel enters the bowl through a valve con­
trolled by the float, Figure 1. Air entering the
carburetor is controlled by the choke valve when
starting. The air-fuel mixture entel"ing the en­
gine is regulated by the throttle valve which
maintains uniform engine speed under varying
loads, as controlled by the g-overnor.
Whenever the throttle is opened quickly to
give extra power for a sudden load, an extra
amount of fuel is required for a momentarily
richer air-fu el mixture. The accelerating well,
Figure 1, provides the extra fuel.
Th e carburetor has two adjusting needles;
one for high speed and the other for low or idle
speeds, Figure 1.
The high speed mixture needle controls the
amount of fuel entering the venturi at high engine
speeds.
The idle mixture needle controls the amount
of fuel entering the venturi when engine is idling
or when throttle valve is in the full closed po­
sition.

Litho in U.S.A.

Remove carburetor from vngine and remove
air cleaner base.
Remove fuel bowl, float needle and n eedle
seat.
Remove high speed and idle mixture needles.
Remove screws holding throttle valve . R e­
move valve and s haft from carburetor housing-.
Remove choke valve, choke shaft retaining
ball and spring.
CAUTION: Place a rag over end of choke
shaft opposIte choke shaft lever to pre­
vent retaining ball from flying out when
shaft is removed.

CLEANING CARBURETOR
Clean all parts in a carburetor cleaning sol­
vent.
CAUTION: Never clean holes or passages
with small drill bits or wire, as a slight enlarge­
ment or burring of these holes wIll change the
performance of the carburetor. No method of
cleanIng other than solvent should be used.

Place carburetor parts in a suitable basket
and immerse basket in a container of carburetor
cleaning solution.

NOT E: Good carburetor cleaning solutions
can be obtained from most jobbers. Agitating
the basket up and down in the solution will speed
ulJ action of the solvent and aid in dissolving de­
pOSits in small dYilled passages.

Allow parts to remain in soluti on from one
to two hours . Then remove a nd rinse with fresh
clean ing solvent. Dry with compressed a ir, mak­
ing sure all hole s are open and free of carbon
and di rt. Never use rags or waste paper to dry
the parts. Any lint may plug j ets of channels
and aff e ct operating efficiency of carburetor.

CAUTION: Never use compressed aIr to clean
a completely assembled carburetor. To do so
may cause the float to collapse.
INSPECTING CARBURETOR
Insp ect fl oa t valve to be sur e valve seat ma­
terial or other debris is not adhering to tapered
surface of valve. If any mat e rial appears on
tap ered surface, replace floa t valve and valve
seat assembly.
Inspect seat assembly for wear or other dam­
age. If valve seat is damaged in any way, re­
place valve seat assembly and float valve.
Valves and seats are available only as match­
ed sets and should never be interchanged.
For a positive leak test, imm e rse the float in
hot wa ter. Any leak can be det ected at once by
air bubbles escaping from the float. Do not at­
tempt to repair the float if it leaks. Replace it.
Check float shaft and replace if worn.
Inspect tapered ends of needle s . If a ring has
been cut in the tapered surface of e ither because
th e needle has been turned too tightly against
the s eat, replace the needl e .
The seats for the high speed and idle mixture
adjusting n eedles are an integ ral part of the
carburetor body casting and ther efo re cannot be
remov ed or replaced.
Insp ect carburetor body casting and fuel bowl
for cracks or damaged seating surface. Examine
threaded holes for damaged threads. Check
thr ottle and choke shaft bearing areas in carbu­
retor body for wear. Replace if worn or damaged .
Inspect jets for damaged or plug ged holes.
Replace if damaged.

Fig. 9-Carburetor Adjustments

Under normal operating' conditions the car­
bu r etor will not require adjusting. Ii, after a
period of time, the engine misses, backfires,
o r excessive exhaust smoke is noticed, a djust­
ment may be requir ed .
Idle adjustment and high speed adjustment
must be made a t the same time as each affects
the other. Adjust a s follows:
1. Run eng in e until warm, then shut off. Turn
hi gh speed mixture needle clockwise wltil closed.
Close finger ti ght only. Th e n open one and one­
half turns.

6. Advance throttle lever quickly to c he c k for
uniform accele r a tion. Ii engine misses. gas -air
mixture is too 1 an. Turn high spe ed mixture
needl e count e r c l ockwise until positive accelera­
tion c an be obtained. If excess exha.ust smoke is
notic ed, mixture is too rich . R eadjust idl e mix­
tur e n re d l e if ne ce ssary until good balance is
achieved and eng in e idles !) l11oot.hly between
1200-1700 rpm. The idle speed screw adjusts
the sp ee d at which the engine idl s. This is fa c ­
tnry adjusted and will not normally require ad­
ju stme nt.

Fuel enters the bowl through a valv e control­
led by the float, Figure 10. Air entering the car­
buretor is controlled by the choke valv e when
starting. The air-fuel mixture entering the en­
gine is regulated by the throttle valv e which
maintains uniform engine speed under varying
loads, as controlled by the governor.

Remove screws holding throttle valve and
remove valve and throttle shaft with r e turn
spring from carburetor housing.
Remove choke valve and choke shaft.
REMOVING MAIN NOZZLE

Whenever the throttle is opened quickly to give
extra power for a sudden load, an extra amount
of fuel is required for a momentarily richer air­
fuel mixture. The secondary idle discharge pro­
vides the extra fuel.
The carburetor has two adjusting needles ;
one for high speeds and one for low speeds, and
an idle adjusting sc rew .
\ 1 ''''I "

The high speed mixture needle controls the
amount of fuel entering the venturi at high en­
gine spe eds.
The idle mixture needle controls the amount
of fuel entering the venturi when engine is idling
or when throttle valve is in the full closed posi­
tion.

ed sets and should never be interchanged.

Clean all parts in a carburetor cleaning sol­
vent.

For a positive leak test, immerse the float
in hot water. Any leak can be detected at once by
air bubbles escaping from the float. Do not at­
ternpt to repair the float if it leaks. Replace it.

CAUTION: Never clean holes or passages
wIth small drill bIts or wIre because a slight
enlargement 0 r burring 0 f these holes will
change the performance of the carburetor. No
method of cleaning other than solvent should be
used.

Place carburetor parts in a suitable basket
and immerse basket in a container of carburet­
or cleaning solution.
Good carburetor cleaning solutions can be
obtained from most automotive jobbers. Agita­
ting the basket up and down in the solution will
speed up action of the solvent and aid in dissolv­
in g deposits in small drilled passages.
Allow parts to remain in solution from one to
two hours. Th e n remove and rinse with fresh
cleaning solvent. Dry with compressed air,
making sure all hol es are open and free of car­
bon and dirt. Never use rags or waste paper to
dry the parts. Any lint may plug jets of channels
and affect operating efficiency of carburetor.
CAUTION: Never usecompressedalrtoclean
a completely assembled carburetor. To do so
may cause the float to collapse.

INSPECTING CARBURETOR

Check float shaft and replace if worn.
Inspect tap ered e nds of needles. If a ring
has been cut in the tapered surface of e ither
needle because the needle has been turned too
tightly against the seat, replace the ne ed le. Check
condition of O-ring on high speed mixture
needle. Replace if damaged.
The seat for the idle mixture needle is an
integral part of the carburetor body casting.
Replace carbu retor body if seat is damaged.
The seat for the high speed lnixture needle
is part of the main nozzle. When replacing the
high speed mixtur e needle, the main nozzle
should also be replaced.
Inspe ct carburetor body casting and fuel bowl
for cracks or damaged seating surface. Examine
threaded holes for damaged threads. Check
throttle and choke shaft bearing areas in carbu­
r etor body for wear. Replace if worn or damaged.
Inspect jets for damaged or plugged holes.
Replace carburetor body if damage is present.
Check the condition of all springs. Replace
worn or damaged springs.

Inspect tapered end of float valve for wear.
If tapered end of valve appears worn or dam­

aged , replace float valve and valve seat assem­
bly.
Inspect seat assembly for wear or other dam­
age. If valve seat is damaged in any way, replace
valve seat assembly and float valve.
Valves and seats are available only as match­

Litho in U.S.A.

Check fuel bowl drain assembly. R eplace in­
ternal rubber seat if fuel bowl has been leaking.
Check fuel pickup passage. It must be clean
to assure adequate fuel flow from the fuel bowl
to the metering systems.
Inspect throttle and choke shaft for excessive
wear or damage in the bearing area.

The purpose of the tests is to isolate the cause of the trouble in the generating system. A com­ plete diagnosis guide is in Group 5 of this section. Adequate, approved electrical test equipment is required to accurately test electrical circuits and intelligently diagnose unsatisfactory per­ formance. Many servicemen prefer to have their elec­ trical components tested by professionals using highly complex test equipment. Good automotive repair centers provide this service. The motor­ generator and voltage regulator can be tested on automotive test equipment. The following test procedures are recom­ mended for dealers having their own test equip­ ment. Equipment needed is listed at the end of this section. A visual inspection will often reveal much useful information relative to the condition of the charging system. An wiring should be vis­ ually inspected periodically for damaged insula­ tion. Faulty wiring should be replaced. All terminals should be checked for loose or corrod­ ed connections. Terminals should be cleaned and tightened if necessary. Unwanted resistance in the circuit results in unwanted voltage losses or drops. EXCESSIVE voltage drop in the charging circuit tends to keep the battery in an undercharged condition. TESTING MOTOR-GENERATOR OF F TRACTOR First check motor-generator on tractor as ex­ plained on page 10-7 of Section 40. Then, per­ form the no-load test as instructed below with the motor-generator removed from the tractor. MOTOR-GENERATOR NO LOAD TEST IMPORTANT: Because there are many man­ ufacturers of test equipment, each with their own specific operating instructions, it is important to follow the manufacturers recommendations if the procedures in this section should contradict those of the manufacturer.

Undersize wire or loose con­ nections between the regula tor and battery or poor ground connections between the battery and generator will cause a lowering of the charging rate to the battery. High resistance resulting from loose or corroded connections in the charg­ ing circuit between the generator and regulator will result in a high voltage at the generator and may cause premature failure of the regulator pOints. Litho in U.S.A. M 5 76 4 Fig. 4-Checking Motor·Generotor Free Speed To perform the "No- Load" test, connect the motor in series with a battery of proper voltage and an ammeter capable of reading several hundred amperes. A tachometer or rpm indicator may be used to measure armature revolutions per minute or free speed, Figure 4. With motor operating and the field grounded, measure the current draw and note the armature speed. Com­ pare these readings with specifications on page 15-19 to determine if the motor is operating properly. Electrical System Charging System Tractors, Lawn and Garden - 110 and 112 SM-2059-(Apr-57) Test Conclusions 1. Rated current draw at rated speed, as found in specifications, indicates normal condition of the motor-generator. 2. Low free speed and high current draw in­ dicates: (a) Too much friction-tight, dirty or worn bearings, bent armature shaft or loose pole shoes allowing armature to drag. (b) Shorted armature. Check on a growler after disassembly. 40 15-3 7. High free speed and near normal current draw indicates an open shunt coil. Replace the coil and check for improved performance. 8. Noise emanating from a generator may be caused by a loose mounting or drive pulley. It can also be caused by worn or dirty bearings, or improperly seated brushes. Dirty bearings may sometimes be saved by cleaning and lubri­ cating, but worn bearings should be replaced. Excessive noise may result if the brush holder is bent, resulting in improper seating of the brush. Such a brush holder must be replaced. TESTING GENERATOR OUTPUT (c) Grounded armature or fields. Check further after disassembly. { I\r~ . IWL[ Rl S I ~lANCE 'I tJ L r :'lE r 13 3 . Failure to operate with high current draw indicates: (a) Direct ground in the terminal or fields. 4. No current draw indicates: (a) Open field circuit. Check after dis­ assembly by inspecting internal con­ nections and tracing circuit with a test lamp. (b) Open armature coils. Inspect the com­ mutator for badly burned bars after disassembly. (c) Broken brush springs, worn brushes, high insulation hetween the commutator bars or other causes which would prevent goo d contact between the brushes and commutator. 5. Low no-load speed and low current draw indicates: (a) High internal resistance due to poor connections, defective leads, dirty commutator and causes listed under No.4. 5. High free speed and high current draw in­ dicates a shorted shunt or series field coil. A shorted shunt coil can b e determined by follow­ ing para graph 3, page 15-5 under "No Output" on page 15-4 .

The unit should function according to specifications. If not, re­ pair or replace parts as indicated in the follow­ ing test conclusions. 40 15-4 Tractors, Lawn and Garden - 110 and ll2 SM-2059- (Apr-57) Electrical System Charging System Test Conclusions (No Output) If the generator will not produce any output, check the commutator, brushes and internal con­ nections. Sticking brushes, a dirty or gummy commutator or poor connections may prevent the generator from producing any output. Solder thrown from the commutator riser bars indicates that the generator has been overheated from ex­ cessive output. Often this leads to an open cir­ cuit and burned commutator bar s and conse­ quently no output. (See paragraph 4, page 15 -5.) If the brush es are satisfactorily seated and are making good contact with the commutator, and the cause of trouble is not apparent. use a test lamp as follows to locate the trouble (leads must be disconnected from motor-generator termi­ nals) . Fig. 7-CI!ecking (or Open F icld C ails TE S T LA'l!' 2. If the unit is not grounded, check the fi e ld for an op en circuit, Figure 7 with a test lamp. The lamp should 1ight when one test point is placed on the field terminal and the other is placed on the armature terminal. If it does not light, th e circuit is open. If th e open is due to a broken lead or bad connection. it can be repaired , but if the open is inside olle of th e field coils, the coi l must be replaced.

A loose drive belt that slips and conse­ quently causes a low or unsteady output. 2. Brushes that stick in their holders, or low brush spring tension which will prevent good contact between the brushes and commuta­ tor resulting in low a nd unsteady output. This will also cause arcing and burning of the brushes and commutator. 3. A commutator that is dirty, out of round, or has high mica caUSing generator output t o be low and unsteady. To correct these conditions. turn the commutator down in a lathe and under­ cut the mica.

If the field is not open, check for a short circuit in the field, Figure 8, by connecting a battery and an ammeter in series with the field circuit.

Since the motor-generator field circuit is grounded through the reb'lliator, accidental in­ ternal g rounding of the field circuit will prevent norm a l re~lation so that excessive output will be produced by the generator, On this type of unit, an internally grounded field circuit which would cause ex c ess ive output lllay be located by connec ting a test larnp between th e" FI' termi­ nal and the generator frame, Figure 6. All leads should be disconnected from the" F' terminal and the brush to which the field lead is connected inside the generator should b e raised off the commutator bc-fore this t est is made.

Any at­ tempt on the part of untrained personnel to ad­ just regulators is likely to lead to serious dam­ age to the electrical equipment. After making any generator or regulator tests or adjustments, the generator s hould be polarized to avoid damage to equipment. See page 15-18 . In analyzing complaints of voltage-regulator operation, any of severa l basic conditions may be found. 1. Battery Remains Charged with Low Water Usage - This indicates normal generator­ regulator operation. Reglliator settings may be checked as outlined in the follow­ ing sections. Tractors , Lawn and Garden - 110 and 112 SM-2059-(Apr-67) 2. Battery Remains Charged with High Water Usage - If the electrolyte level in the battery drops rapidly to the top of the separators, it indicates that the current­ voltage regulator is not reducing the cur­ rent flowing to the battery as it should. Excessive current flowing to a full y charged battery will cause serious dam­ age in the battery. This operating con­ dition may result from: a. Improper setting of the current-voltage regulator ill1it. b. Defective unit. current-voltage regulator c. Grounded generator field circuit (in either generator, regulator or wiring). d. The load and battery leads may be in­ terchanged at the regulator terminals. To determine the cause of trouble, first dis­ connect the lead from the regulator t 'F" termi­ nal with the generator operating at medium speed . If the output remains high, the generator field is grounded either in the generator or in the wiring. If the generator output stops, the regulator is probably at fault, and it should be checked for high current-voltage setting.

If Generator Shows Some Output - With gen­ erator operating at medium speed, a charge rate of 1 to 3 amperes is normal with fully charged battery at normal operating temperatures. If battery is in a discharged condition or is ex­ tremely hot, charge rate will be considerably higher. If condition of battery indicates that charge rate is too low, momentarily ground "FIELD" terminal of regulator. If output shows a strong increase, trouble is probably due to low setting of current-voltage regulator unit or to dirty contact points in regulator. If output does not increase, generator is probably at fault and should be checked. Refer to Figures 6, 7, and 8. If Generator Shows No Output - With genera­ tor operating at medium speed, momentarily connect a jumper between "GENERATOR" and "BATTERY" terminals of regulator. If genera­ tor shows output, the relay is at fault. If genera­ tor does not Show output, momentarily ground "FIELD" terminal or generator. If generator now shows output, regulator is at fault. If genera­ tor still does not show output, the generator is at fault and should be checked. 4. Damaged Resistor - If the resistor at­ tached beneath the regulator is broken or otherwise damaged, the contact points of the current-voltage regulator unit soon become burned. This condition results in a low generator output. Whenever a re­ sistor is replaced it will usually be found necessary to clean the contact points in order to restore satisfactory operation. 5. Damage Within the Regulator - This may be due to reversed generator polarity. Generator polarity must be corrected, as explained under" Polarizing Generator, " page 15-18, after any checks of the regu­ lator or generator, or after disconnecting and reconn e cting leads. 40 Tractors, Lawn and Garden - 110 and 112 SM-2059-(Apr-67) Electrical System Charging System 15-8 TESTING REGULATOR The electrical settings of the cutout relay a.nd the current-voltage regulator unit may be checked either on or off the tractor without re­ moving the regulator cover. When bench checks are made, the regulator must be connected only to a generator of the type for which it is designed. Results obtained with any other type of generator will be meaningless. When the regulator is checked on a tractor, all loads (including igni­ tion) connected to the "L" terminal must be switched off. To furnish ignition current during tests for electrical settings , use a jumper lead to connect free end of battery lead direct to primary terminal of ignition coil (switch side).

To check the electrical setting of the current­ voltage regulator unit, disconnect the lead from the "BATTERY" terminal of the regulator and connect a fixed resistor from the "BATTERY" terminal of regulator to "GROUND" on the re­ gulator base, Figure 11. The system also re­ quires a 7-0hm fixed resistor as shown in Figures 11 and 12. Disconnect the lead from the" FIELD" ter­ minal of the regulator, and connect a variable resistance (25-0hm-25 watt) in series between the lead and the' 'FIELD" terminal. The variable resistance must have an "open" pOSition at the extreme left end of its travel, Figure 11. Connect a low reading test voltmeter between the "BATTERY" terminal of the regulator and "GROUND" at the base of the regulator. For this check, the regulator must be stabilized at operating temperature, otherwise the results are of no value. To stabilize the regulator, operate the generator at a speed of 2500 rpm for at least 15 minutes with the fixed resistor connected and the knob of the variable resistance turned to the right so that the resistance is entirely cutout. With the generator operating at 2500 rpm a.nd all electrical load (including ignition) discon­ nected from the "L" terminal of the regulator , slowly turn the operating knob of the variable resistance to the left until the circuit is broken at the "open" pOSition. Then turn the knob back to the right slowly until the resistance is en­ tirely cutout. Note the voltage setting. If the check is repeated, the knob on the variable re­ sistance must be turned to the "open" pOSition each time before the voltage is again raised.

This allows a momentary surge of current to flow through the generator which cor­ rectly polarizes it. Reversed polarity may result in vibration, arcing and burning of the relay con­ tact points. Tractors, Lawn and Garden - 110 and 112 SM-2059-(Apr-67) CAUTION: Operate the regulator with these connections only during cold weather and when operating periods are short or Infrequent. Re­ establish the orlglnai lead connections as soon as mild weather returns, or operation time be­ comes normal, otherwise the battery will be damaged by overcharge. For ease in bypassing the current-voltage feature of the regulator, an external adjustment can be installed as shown in Figure 35. EMERGENCY WINTER OPERATION The external adjustment unit shown in Figure 35 can be purchased from any United Delco-Remy service station under package No. 1951938. fig. 35 - Increasing Regulator Voltage During winter operation, if rundown batteries are repeatedly experienced and the condition is found to be due to short or infrequent engine op­ eration, it is advisable to increase temporarily the operating voltage of the reg-ulator. A simple method of increasing voltage is to disconnect the lead to regulator "BAT" terminal and reconnect this lead to the regulator "L" terminal. The reconnection bypasses the cur­ rent- voltage feature of the regulator, automa tic­ ally allowing an increase in the operating voltage and increasing the amount of charge to the bat­ tery.

The pressure in the system is determined by the relief valve setting. If pressure is too great, the relief valve will channel the excess oil di­ rectly back to the reservoir. F ig . 2-Diophragm, Gosk e ts and Diaphragm Seal Fig. I-Cross Section af Geor Pump The gear pump with pressure loaded wear plate consists of a drive gear and an idler gear in a closely fitted housing, Figure 1. When the pump is in operation, the pump drive turns the drive gear which in turn rotates the idler gear. Oil enters the suction port from the reservoir and is trapped beeween the gear teeth and the closely fitted housing. As the teeth come together at the opposite side of the pump, the oil is displaced and forced out through the pressure port. The volume of oil the pump delivers is dependent upon the speed at which the gears turn. Litho in U.S.A. Gear end clearance is kept at a minimum by means of a thin, flexible bronze faced steel plate. This plate is called a diaphragm since it actua lly flexes to reduce gear end c lear ance, rather than the entire plate moving as is common with ordi­ nary wear plates. The diaphragm is kept in contact with the gear ends by hydraulic pressure which is carefully controlled. The area behind the wear plate is divided into pie shaped compartments by a spe­ cial mould e d rubber diaphragm seal, protector gasket and backup gasket. The diaphragm seal has a spok e -like pattern running around the gear shafts with intercon­ nected "V"-grooves. This seal fits into a cor­ responding pattern of grooves in the front plate 60 15-2 Tractors, Lawn and Garden - 110 and 112 SM-2059- (Apr-57) Hydraulic System Pump GENERAL INFORMATION-Continued with the "V" down. The protector gasket and backup gasket fit on the top of the diaphragm seal being the same general pattern as the seal. The purpose of these gaskets is to prevent ex­ trusion of the seal into the space between the diaphragm and the front plate . When the pump is in operation, oil from the pressure port is forced w1der the diaphragm seal and is distributed by the interconnecting" V"­ groove in the seal. This oil pressure forces the gaskets against the wear plate, thus dividing the area under the wear plate into pie shaped seal compartments. A small hole 1s drilled through the diaphr agm into each compartment. These connect th e small chambers formed by the gear teeth to the com­ partments under the wear plate. Becaus e of the location of these holes, the pressure under the diaphragm is slightly hi gher than the con'es­ ponding section in the gear chamber. Conse­ quently, the diaphragm is always kept in close contact with the gear ends, compensating for de­ flection from pressure, thermal expansion or wear. This greatly incre a ses pump efficiency.

The Ross steering gear has a cam and lever arm with cross bolt and taper stud, Figure 1­ The lever arm is actuated whenever the cam is rota ted. ,. --- ...... • •I / I ... ... f I \ \ I -- ' " The steering gear used on 110 Tractors ( 4048) has a 12: 1 steering ratio. To prevent pre­ mature steering gear failure, GT-3 tires should not be used on 110 Tractors ( -4048). The steering gear used on 110 Tractors (4049­ 100,000) and 112 Tractors ( -100,000) has a 14: 1 steering ratio. The 14: 1 steering ratio re­ duces steering effort for tractors equipped with GT-3 and GT-4 tires. 110 Tractors ( -67939) and 112 Tractors - 3550) have adjustable tie rods, Figure 2. 11 a Tractors (67940-100,000) and 112 Trac­ tors ( 3551-100,000) have one piece tie rods, Figure 2.

Familiarize yourself with the information on this page before proceeding to "Diagnosing Malfunc­ tions" on the following page. •T SEAL AND RETAINER Fig. 4-Broken Steering Geer Housing DRAG LINK ." Fig . J-Demeged Seel A damaged seal, Figure 3, is caused by over­ greasing of the housing or an improperly ad­ justed cross bolt in the lever arm. HOUSING \f • .: t A broken steering gear housing is most com­ monly caused by the wheel striking a solid ob­ ject when the tractor is traveling at fast speed. It can also be caused by applying excessive pres­ sure on steering wheel with heavy load on front of tractor. EXAMPLE: Tractor equipped with GT-3 tires and front end loader. To reduce steering effort, the tractor should be in motion when turning front wheels, espe­ cially with heavy ballast on front of tractor. Litho in U.S.A. Fig. 5-Bell Joint Disconnected from D,ag Link Ball joint damage as shown in Figure 5, is caused by an improperly positioned drag link. Refer to page 5-9 for proper position of drag link rod. 70 5-4 Miscellaneous Steering Linkage SPINDLE Tractors, Lawn and Garden - 110 and 112 SM-2059- (Apr-67) BALL JOINTS Ill ' r !) f' jul t A Fig. 7-801/ Joints Fig. 6-Bent Spindle Arm Replace ball joint assembly whenever exces­ sive looseness or other damage is noticed.
