This 782-page technical document delivers the structural overview required for professional servicing of the 1982–1986 310A and 310B series. The manual organizes complex factory documentation into practical modules covering wheel assemblies, axles, transmissions, and auxiliary systems. You get direct insight into the complete power train. This includes the constant-mesh transmission, differential drive assemblies, and the closed-center hydraulic system. Additional sections break down the operator's station, sheet metal, and safety structures like the ROPS canopy.
Technicians and DIY mechanics will find detailed guidance on the 219 cu. in. diesel power plant. Chapters outline removal, repair, and installation sequences for the engine block, crankshaft, cooling systems, and injection manifolds. Content is grouped mechanically by component. This logical flow makes it fast to locate specifics on loader controls, backhoe linkages, and hydraulic cylinder service intervals. The guide also details predelivery service and after-sale inspection checklists for unit commissioning.
Technical data is presented through extensive charts. Key specifications include a differential drive shaft hex nut torque of 160 lb-ft and a front wheel slotted nut torque of 35 lb-ft. The manual documents a hydraulic system operating pressure of 2350 psi alongside a combined transmission and hydraulic capacity of 20.5 US gallons. Always verify specific hardware torque values and safety protocols against these OEM specifications prior to beginning any hands-on shop work.
This 1986 edition stands as the final engineering reference for the series, incorporating all prior service updates.
