INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(CONTINUED)
15. Bolt pump mount bracket with pump and alternator to back side of angle on frame that the old one came
off of. Center slots and tighten.
16. Place new belt around pulleys on engine, pump, and alternator. Adjust belt tension by pivoting alternator
so there is 1 /
2
inch deflection on belt in middle of longest span. Tighten all bolts. Check belt tension after
10 hours of use.
17. Connect both hydraulic hoses back up to pump.
18. Locate red wire coming from rectifier on lower right
front of engine. Disconnect wire at coupler.
19. Remove jack stands and lower machine if you
have raised it.
20. Route wire harness (voltmeter to alternator) over to
steering column and under floorboard back to
alternator. Be sure harness is not touching any
moving or hot parts. Plug both connectors on to
terminals on bottom of alternator.
21. Connect remaining wire to terminal on back of
alternator and other end to battery cable terminal
on starter solenoid. Be sure wires are not touching
any moving or hot parts.
22. Use nylon ties to tie wiring up and out of way.
23. Put spray pump guard back on.
24. Connect negative (-) battery cable back up.
Make absolutely certain you are connecting positive (+) to positive; negative (-) too negative
while attaching power leads. If you do not observe polarity, damage will result to electrical
components.
25. Turn key on. Look at voltmeter, it should read 12 volts. Turn key to start, with engine cranking voltmeter
should read 10 volts. With engine running above idle voltmeter should read around 14 volts.
26. With engine running, park brake set, and transmission in neutral, check for hydraulic fluid leaks at pump
hose fittings. Correct if needed with engine off.
Do not check for leaks with our hand. Use a narrow flat piece of wood to locate leaks.
Serious injury can occur from pressurized hydraulic fluid breaking through the skin.
27. Check oil level in hydraulic pump reservoir, remove fill plug on top and fluid level should be about 1 1 /
2
inch
from the top when fluid is cold. If fluid is needed add SAE 10W-40 API Service SJ or higher motor oil.
28. Remove blocks from wheels.
