Machine total fluid capacity. Math not working well

jeudi 24 novembre 2016

So, I'm working on a 644E loader, the spec seems to say 30 gallons for hydraulic system capacity, 6 gallons each axle and 4 gallons for the trans, numbers rounded off.

So with the axles filled and hydraulic system refilled, after splitting, overhauling the center pin, overhauling the steering cylinders, replacing a handful of lines and rebuilding the brake pump. So there wasn't much fluid left in the system, cleaned all the main lines to make sure there wasn't any debris.

After filling the hydrauilc tank and carefully purging, it sure feels like the 55 gal drum is darned near empty where it should have 13 ish gallons remaining.

does 'hydrauilc fluid capacity' just refer to the tank volume? If so, I'd have to guess where 12-13 gallons went.

Maybe a gallon for the filter, 3 for each steering ram, main suction line 2, feed lines, 1 each. perhaps that comes up to nearly 10 plus other dribbles.

I guess that's the question, is capacity different than total volume.
