pany is to be recognized by our customers and

This Service and Repair Manual is designed to
provide information useful in servicing the 310-
3000Hydro-Gear Integrated Hydrostatic

der number is BLN-51095.
Also included is a glossary of terms that are
frequently used throughout the industry and in
Hydro-Gear service publications. Understand-
ing terminology is very important!!
It is necessary, and good shop practice, that your
service area be equipped with proper tools and
the mechanics to be supplied with the latest in-
formation available. All repair procedures
illustrated in this guide are suggested, but pre-
ferred methods of repair.
Repair procedures require that the transaxle unit
be removed from the vehicle.
Some cleaning solvents are flammable. To avoid
possible fire, do not use cleaning solvents in an
area where a source of ignition may be present.
This is not a certification test or study guide for a
certification test. If a technician is interested in
certification, they should contact an agent repre-
senting the OPE Technicians Certification of Aus-
tin, Texas or their distributor. Many distributors will
be hosting certification testing. These study
guides will cover most of the products and manu-
facturers in our industry.
