Table 3-51. Anchor Winch Torque Converter
Troubleshooting (Cont.).
MALFUNCTION
TEST OR INSPECTION
CORRECTIVE ACTION
2. Poor performance and overheating of converter.
Step 1.
Check for air in system.
a. Low basic pressure, overheating and loss of pulling power are likely
indications of air in the system. Partially open the bleed valve at the
high point of the fluid system with the unit running. If any air is present,
the source of the air leak into the fluid system must be located.
b. Check the fluid level in the reserve tank to be sure it is not too low.
c. Make a very close check of all points on the suction line (D) from the
reserve tank to the charging pump. It may be possible an air leak exists
in this line which may not show up as a fluid leak with the unit shut down.
NOTE
To insure proper bleeding of the fluid system during operation, remove
the orifice assembly (E) and clean the filter screen and give particular
attention to the orifice hole in the body of the assembly.
