PROBLEM
The vane-type implement pump may fail and needs to be replaced with a
gear-type pump on certain 966G, 966G II, 972G and 972G II Wheel
Loaders. A typical vane pump failure will have scoring on the
pressure plates and rotor. This can result in a loss of efficiency
and increased noise from the pump. The failure may also include
cracking or breaking of the rotor. The gear-type pump is a more
robust design and will eliminate this failure and provide improved
implement pump life.

6. Install 6V8625 Elbow, using 3K0360 and 6V8398 seals, into the
2445447 Pump Group bearing drain port.
7. Remove 6V8626 Elbow from steering pump case drain port and
replace with a 6V8776 Tee, using 2M9780 and 7J9108 seals.
8. Install Steering pump using a 2326546 Coupling kit. Use new
9X7371 O-ring Seal between steering pump and 2445447 Pump Group.
Fasten steer pump to 2445447 Pump Group using 6V5686 Bolts with
9X8268 Washers.
9. Connect the 2307549 Hose assembly between the implement pump
bearing drain port and the steering pump case drain port. Connect
existing Steering Pump case drain line to the Tee assembly.
10. Install Pilot and Brake Pump.
11. Refer to Illustration 4 for steps 11 through 15.
12. Remove 1376949 Hose Assembly and replace it with 2398038 Hose
Assembly.
13. Remove 1376948 Hose Assembly and replace it with 2398037 Hose
Assembly.

17. Pre-fill the implement, steering, pilot and brake pumps with
recommended hydraulic oil before installing cab. Always use clean
oil when you add oil to the system. Clean oil must be at an ISO

Tighten the four cab mounting bolts to a torque of 850 +/- 100
N.m (629 +/- 74 lb. ft.).
19. Replace 1G8878 Hydraulic Oil Filter.
20. Before starting engine, fill hydraulic tank with recommended
hydraulic oil. Always use clean oil when you add oil to the
system. Clean oil must be at an ISO level of at least 16/13.
21. Crank the engine at least five times without starting the engine.
Wait for at least five seconds between cranks in order to allow
