John Deere Loader-backhoe Oil Pressure Lamp activity

vendredi 25 novembre 2016

My first loader/backhoe ever, JD 310E. Previously had a New Holland CTL for about a year...that was my first construction machine. Just accepted backhoe from dealer two days ago. Didn't do this when I inspected it at dealer location, but dealer had warmed it up when I specifically asked them to let it sit icecold until I arrived to inspect.

I let it sit for 36 hours after I accepted delivery and started it this morning, about 32 degrees F. Started fine, and at lowest idle (1,000rpm) everything was fine. As I pressed the fuel pedal the Low Oil Pressure Light illuminated at 1,100 RPM and stayed on if increased above that point. It stayed on for almost 20 minutes if revved above 1,000 rpm. I checked it every 3-5 minutes to see what it would do, and for how long. At 20 minutes it went off, but it came back on upon me revving it to 2300rpm and then went off again and stayed off after that, regardless of the RPMs. I'm letting it sit for a couple of hours to check it again when cool but not ice cold. It's about 40 degress F today.

Is any of this normal age operation for a 1999 310E with 4,500 hours. Suggestions to troubleshot further? Thanks!
