INSPECTION OF HYDRAULIC MOTOR

1.

INSPECT DRIVE AND DRIVEN ROTORS
(a) Install the drive and driven rotor to the motor housing

with the dot mark facing upward.

(b) Using a feeler gauge and precision straight edge,

measure the side clearance between the rotor and
precision straight edge.

Standard side clearance: 0.01–0.04 mm

(0.0004–0.0016 in.)

Maximum side clearance: 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)

If the clearance is greater than maximum, replace the rotors
as a set. If necessary, replace the motor assembly.

2.

INSPECT OIL CLEARANCE OF DRIVE SHAFT
(a) Using a caliper gauge, measure the shaft hole inside

diameter of the housing and cover.

Shaft hole inside diameter: 14.000–14.011 mm

(0.5512–0.5516 in.)

(b) Using a micrometer, measure the drive shaft diameter.

Shaft diameter: 13.973–13.984 mm

(0.5501–0.5506 in.)

(c) Subtract

the drive shaft diameter measurement from the

shaft hole diameter measurement.

Standard clearance: 0.016–0.038 mm

(0.0006–0.0015 in.)

Maximum clearance: 0.04 mm (0.0016 in.)

If the clearance is greater than maximum, replace the shaft.
If necessary, replace the motor assembly.
