Q

Leakage oil in gear pumps is routed to the pump inlet

1) So the bushings do not burn up
2) So the gears are not side loaded
3) To protect the shaft seal

Q

Select the incorrect statement regarding vane type hydraulic motors

1)Vane motors are commonly bi-directional and reversible
2)Bi-directional vane motors require external drain ports
3)Vane motors have a minimum rotating RPM to ensure the vanes make contact with the cam ring
4)Balanced vane motors have 4 sets of transfer slots and have an elliptical cam ring

A
  1. vane motors have a minimum rotating RPM to ensure the vanes make contact with the cam ring

Q

What is the purpose of the piston relief valves mounted commonly on the end of dozer lift cylinders.

1)To limit the maximum pressure in the cylinder
2)To allow for greater cooling
3)To allow for quicker dropping of the blade
4)To allow for a quicker cycle time

A
  1. to allow for greater cooling
