nice pic mine is an A1, had the genset rails and 3 tool boxes.

by the way im over in harden valley, what part of knoxville are you in (no issue if you wish to not say).

and thanks for that discr and thanks for the description of how info is spread thru the TM's ... that is a wonderfully accurate way to put it. I have a M936A1 and spend an inordinate amount of time going thru the various TM's to find what i would have thought was a simply - common piece of...

Thanks so much - you -da -man that is exactly what i was looking for - figured the info was somewhere but scanning thru the TM i had missed that info.

thanks--- that's pretty much what i had planned. was just curious about how to fill the master, just add till its full to the brim and bleed away, then refill to top of the fill port since there is no "level" you can see??? and i was guessing this is a very common part, but thanks for...

I have a M1061 and am doing general maintenance and clean up. looks like i need to replace several of the hydraulic hard lines to the wheel cylinders. I've read the TM, but only find master cylinder replacement info. i will need to bleed the system. question is, unlike a car master cylinder...

yes i have the auto throttle. and when i engage the transfer case power take off control lever (beside the seat) the auto throttle will rev the engine up - it will hit ~2000 rpm then quickly settle to 1500 rmp or so. also when i disengage the transfer case power take off control lever...

Thanks for the info, question? when you say it needs to be in 5th, mine has the Allison automatic, so TM has it in 1-5 position. the HI-Lo shifter is in neutral, and i then engage the transfer case power take off control lever (beside the seat) which auto throttles the engine to about...

I have been chasing a hydraulic issue (M936A1) on the main crane system and have a general question on how the system operates that i can't figure from the TM's. Does the hydraulic pump run full flow through the crane control body and back to the tank when no action is given. then for example...

i have an m936A1 with auto throttle, and my truck when you engage the crane (handle by the seat next to the door) - the auto throttle will take the truck to 2000rpm or so and then quickly back down to ~1500rpm, and when disengages does the reverse - engine roars to 2000 rpm and then dies down to...

yes my 936 is an A1, i had figured all 936's had auto throttle - good to know, as usual, there are lots of variations. I like my auto throttle, as for my machine, i can't imagine wanting it to go slower which is what started this whole thread. i'm trying to figure out why (for no obvious...

thanks for the response, you confirmed what i see on my 936 gauge. when i engage the crane PTO, my engine auto throttles up to ~1500-1700 and the gov holds it as load varies. so by "top" gear - my shifter is in 1-5 position??? can't say i've heard it shift, just hear it throttle up to rpm...

936 guys a while back i install a pressure gauge to monitor pressure at the supply side (hi pressure) of the control valve body. after reviewing the TM's they showed a location to do exactly this - to monitor pressure - TM ( TM 9-2320-272-24-2 , section 3-389. PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE...

thanks for that info!!!! perfect.

Ahh my bad , should have said bake shoes, not pads, so yes its drums....LOL... thanks on the video, will check it out.
