Overview

This manual includes information on the installation, maintenance, and minor repair of LDU20/24
transmission (HST). It includes a description of the unit and its individual components, troubleshooting
information, and minor repair procedures.

Performing minor repairs may require removal from the vehicle/machine. Thoroughly clean the unit
before beginning maintenance or repair activities. Since dirt and contamination are the greatest enemies
of any type of hydraulic equipment, follow cleanliness requirements strictly. This is especially important
when changing the system filter and when removing hoses or plumbing.

A worldwide network of Danfoss Authorized Service Centers is available for major repairs. Danfoss trains
and certifies Authorized Service Centers on a regular basis. You can locate your nearest Authorized
Service Center using the distributor locator at www.sauer-danfoss.com.

Warranty

Performing installation, maintenance, and minor repairs according to the procedures in this manual will
not affect your warranty. Major repairs requiring the removal of the units center section voids the
warranty unless completed by a Danfoss Global Service Partner.

General Instructions

Follow these general procedures.

Remove the unit

Prior to performing major repairs, remove the unit from the vehicle/machine. Chock the wheels on the
vehicle or lock the mechanism to inhibit movement. Be aware that hydraulic fluid may be under high
pressure and/or hot. Inspect the outside of the HST and fittings for damage. Cap hoses and plug ports
after removal to prevent contamination.

Keep it clean

Cleanliness is a primary means of assuring satisfactory HST life, on either new or repaired units. Clean the
outside of the HST thoroughly before disassembly. Take care to avoid contamination of the system ports.
Cleaning parts using a clean solvent wash and air drying is usually adequate.

As with any precision equipment, keep all parts free of foreign materials and chemicals. Protect all
exposed sealing surfaces and open cavities from damage and foreign material. If left unattended, cover
the transmission with a protective layer of plastic.

Lubricate moving parts

During assembly, coat all moving parts with clean hydraulic fluid. This assures that these parts are
lubricated during start-up.

Replace all O-rings and gaskets

Danfoss recommends you replace all O-rings, seals, and gaskets during repair.Lightly lubricate all O-rings
with clean petroleum jelly prior to assembly. Grease must be soluable in hydraulic fluid.
