ST6 Hydraulic Pump

[Gary Prentice]

Has anyone got any details for the hydraulic pump for an ST6?

 

I can order one from Forst, but really could do with getting one off the shelf somewhere local tomorrow morning

I cannot offer much help as we had tr6s and they had tandem pumps, one for each track and one also doubled up for the feed rollers IIRC. It's been 18 months since I had anything to do with them but from the manual it looks like a 2P series pump with a 4 bolt flange and a tapered drive complete with an outrigger bearing to take the radial thrust from the drive belt. It will have the spec stamped into the aluminium. In fact as these gear pumps are all copies of the original Dowty pump once you know the series 1p 2p 3p you can measure the length of the aluminium body to get the capacity, then all you need is the type of ports and the direction of rotation.. If it's sucking air I'd check the outrigger bearing for play.

 

My guess would be this:

I have not used this firm as I normally used whitehouse or hydraulic equipment supermarkets

 

Ours had only recently come out of warranty when I was put out to grass so although pumps were replaced under warranty I hadn't got around to needing any but would have bought them  by mail order as we always had spare chippers so a day or two didn't matter.

 

I do have the OEM makers for filters and the hopper gas strut if that is common with the  st6.

Good , what did you find?

Well, I got a serial number of the new one. 

 

It it was a case of,

“Have you got one of these? “

”Yes”

”I’ll take it”

 

I did notice it was 11cc but apart from that I’m no wiser
