HYDRAULIC SYSTEM The ALMACO SHP 90 Combine utilizes hydraulic systems to provide power to the components used for threshing, ground drive, steering, header lift, and various options. Power is supplied directly by the engine, which drives two variable displacement pumps, a fixed displacement gear pump, and a pressure compensated piston pump. The first pump (closest to the engine) supplies power to the ground drive and is controlled by the ground drive controller actuator. The second pump (middle) supplies power to the threshing cylinder motor and is controlled by an actuator and cable system. The third pump powers the load sensing power steering, the head motor or the unload auger motor run through a stack valve. The piston pump is driven from the upper jackshaft and pressurizes the large valve stack. The header lift, transfer auger motor, transverse auger motor, auger fold, and other auxiliary functions are powered by this pump. HYDRAULIC RELIEF VALVES NOTE: All hydraulic relief valves are pre-set at the factory. Contact ALMACO before making any adjustments. RECOMMENDED HYDRAULIC RELIEF OIL PRESSURE SETTINGS: a. Ground drive: 5000 psi port A 5000 psi port B b. Threshing cylinder: 3500 psi c. Gear pump: 3000 psi d. Auxiliary pump: 2000 psi RETURN FILTER VALVE: Shuts off the hydraulic lines so the reservoir does not drain while changing the return filter. The valve must be opened before engine will start. Check return filter valve light, if illuminated valve is closed and combine will not start. Open for Operation Close to change filter Figure E-2 Return Filter Valve Positions MAINTENANCE E-9

SPC 90 ENGINE STARTING PROCEDURE WARNING! Do not start engine in enclosed unventilated area. Fumes could cause operator illness or death. WARNING! Make sure all people are in a safe position before starting. Sound horn and call CLEAR to warn others. BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE 1. Put ground drive control lever in neutral. 2. Turn parking brake switch on. 3. Turn clutch switch off. 4. Turn head speed control off. 5. Turn threshing cylinder off. 6. Turn discard auger switch off. 7. Turn unload auger switch off. 8. Return filter valve open. Set the engine speed control to idle position. Insert key, rotate key clockwise one click for acc power. Threshing cylinder indicator will illuminate (green). Rotate key clockwise one more click to power on. OPS Status Light (blue) should be illuminated. If not recheck above conditions. Wait To Start light will illuminate in cold weather. Glow plugs will be activated dependant on engine temperature, so time will vary accordingly. When Wait To Start light goes out, turn key clockwise to the start position and hold until engine starts. Do not crank starter for more than 20 seconds. If engine fails to start, turn off key and wait one minute, then retry. If engine does not start on second attempt, See SECTION D TROUBLESHOOTING or the Deutz Operation Manual. E-10 MAINTENANCE

CONVEYOR BELT ADJUSTMENT All conveyor belts should run straight and evenly across roller surfaces without binding or scuffing the side frame. The belt tension should only be tight enough to prevent slipping. Before adjusting, determine the cause of the problem. New belts may stretch during the break-in period and may require a tension adjustment. NOTE: Over tightening the belt can cause laces to pull apart or rollers to break. The combine is equipped with spring loaded conveyor belt take-ups. The spring adjusters can handle the changes in belt length as the lacing travels around the rollers and as the belt stretches. There are two types of spring loaded adjusters. See Figure E-3 Pusher Conveyor Adjuster and Figure E-4 Puller Conveyor Adjuster for proper adjustment procedures. When installing replacement belts, clean the roller surfaces and V-guides. Build up on the roller surfaces can cause stretching, excessive wear, and misalignment. Position the V-guide on the inside of the belt so that it rides in the center of the V-groove in the roller. TENSION BOLT 1/8 CLEARANCE STOP NUT BOLT JAM NUT ADJUSTER JAM NUT Figure E-3 Pusher Conveyor Adjuster To Loosen Adjuster: 1. Locate the adjustment assembly on both sides of roller. 2. Loosen the bolt jam nuts and tension bolts to remove spring pressure. 3. Loosen adjuster jam nuts and stop nuts. Push the roller in to loosen the conveyor belt. To Tighten Adjuster: 1. Pull roller out to remove all slack from belt. Make sure belt V-guide is in the roller V-groove. 2. Tighten the stop nuts until there is an 1/8 clearance from stop nut washer to adjuster housing. 3. Tighten the tension bolts evenly until the belt stops slipping. If the belt does not track evenly, and rubs on the inside of the machine tighten the tension bolt on side the belt is rubbing. 4. Tighten all jam nuts securely. MAINTENANCE E-11

HIGH PRESSURE WASHING (Water and Mild Solvent) High pressure cleaning with water and mild solvent is advisable provided the following points are observed. 1. Lightly wash entire machine with solution to float abrasive particles off the machine, which might otherwise be blown into bearings and other critical surfaces as the cleaning procedure continues. A recommended safe distance is at least 2 to 3 feet between nozzle and machine. 2. Avoid close contact of nozzle to machine (less than 12" to 15"), as high pressure jet stream at this distance imparts a cutting action which will lift and remove paint. In addition, close nozzle contact may also damage seals, inject water into, or blow grease from bearings and other lubricated surfaces, leaving exposed parts susceptible to rust and wear. NOTE: Lubricate all bearings and other lubricated surfaces, after washing and run machine for a short period to aid in moisture removal. Paint bare metal surfaces as needed to prevent rust 3. Engine may be washed totally, but avoid trapping moisture in electrical components, and do not wash a "hot" engine with cold water, as the differential in temperature could cause cracking of exhaust manifold and other components. 4. Mild solvents of a non-flammable nature may be suitable for cleaning, provided manufacturer's specs are compatible with alkyd enamels, rubber and plastics as used on the combine. 5. Using steam as a cleaning agent is not recommended by ALMACO, as steam is viewed as a potentially destructive agent to plastics, paint and rubber and promotes rust and corrosion of components, which are not immediately protected after cleaning.
