MODELS8000—8600—8700—9000—9600—9700—TW-10—TW-20—TW-30
These Ford tractors are equipped with a six-cylinder diesel engine. The 9000 series, TW-20 and
TW-30 modeis engines are equipped with a turbocharger and due to increased power output, severai
components on these modeis have been strengthened in comparison to the 8000 series and TW-10
modeis. An eight-speed gear type transmission and disc type ciutch is standard on aii models. A
Dual Power planetary gear assembly which provides under-drive ratios in ail transmission speeds is
standard on TW-30 modeis and avaiiabie for ail other modeis.
identification numbers pertaining to Modeis 8000, 8600, 9000 and 9600 are iocated on a piate inside
the tool box cover.
Numbers pertaining to Modeis 8700 and 9700 are located on a piate mounted on the underside of
the radiator filier cap access door.
Numbers pertaining to Models TW-10 and TW-20 are on a piate located above the right front corner
of the radiator and are accessible after removing the right front grill panel.
Numbers pertaining to Modei TW-30 are on a plate iocated between the radiator and front fuel tani<;

Renew bushings (18) in center member if
member is otherwise serviceable; bush-
ings are pre-sized and should not require
reaming if carefully installed. Be sure
grease holes are aligned and install plug
(19) in bore through axle tube. Renew
thrust washers (17) if worn.
Reinstall by reversing removal proce-
dure. Tighten pivot pin support and
center steering arm cap screws to a
torque of 180-220 ft.-lbs., then bend
locking plates against steering arm cap
screw heads. Tighten tie rod clamp bolts
to a torque of 25-35 ft.-lbs. and check
toe-in as outlined in paragraph 4.

system. Avoid use of shop towels or rags
In wiping internal parts as any lint can
cause malfunction of the system.
All 8000 and 9000 models and early
8600 and 9600 models were equipped
with a remote power steering oil reser-
voir, a Saginaw Hydramotor power
steering motor and a power steering
pump with a flow control valve. The
relief valve on pump is accessible from
the outside.
Late 8600 and 9600 models were
equipped with a Ross power steering
motor which uses a spool to control flow.
Steering pumps on these models have
the reservoir as an integral part of
pump. It is necessary to remove this
type pump from engine to change filter
or relief pressure.
7. FLUID, BLEEDING AND SYS-
TEM RESERVOIR. Recommended
power steering fluid is Ford M-2C-41
oil. Maintain fluid level to full mark on
dipstick. A low oil level switch assembly
(10—Fig. 6) is used on models with
remote fluid reservoir and is connected
to a warning light on instrument panel.
The light (located in Proof-Meter dial)
should be on when starter switch is
turned to "ON" position and go out when
engine is started. If light remains on
after engine is started, check for low oil
level or malfunction in warning light
system.
After each 600 hours of use, renew
filter element. On models with remote
reservoir, remove all oil from reservoir
with suction gun, install new element
and refill reservoir with new oil. On
models with integral reservoir, remove
pump from engine, drain reservoir,
remove bolt (1—Fig. 8) and renew filter
and "0" rings.
On all models the power steering
system is self-bleeding. When any unit
has been removed or disconnected, refill
reservoir, start engine and cycle system
by turning steering wheel from lock to
lock. System is fully bled when front
wheels respond directly to steering
wheel movement and oil stays at level
mark. Check fluid level and add oil as
required to maintain full reservoir when
cycling system.
8. CHECKING SYSTEM PRES-
SURE. On models with remote reser-
voir the power steering pump assembly
incorporates a pressure relief valve and
a flow control valve. System relief
pressure should be 1450-1550 psi. On
later models with integral pump and
reservoir, pressure should be 1550-1650
psi.
To check system relief pressure, dis-
connect fitting and remove elbow in
pressure line (5—Fig. 4 or Fig. 5) and
connect a 0-2000 psi gage to pump, using
an "0" ring on fitting to pump. With the
engine running, gage reading should be
as stated above. On models with remote
reservoir, if pressure is not as specified,
remove the pressure relief valve cap
(7—Fig. 7) and add or remove shims (6)
as required. If adding shims under the
pressure relief valve cap will ndt
increase system pressure, clean flow
control spool in pump. If pressure is still
low remove and overhaul power steering
pump as outlined in paragraph 11.
CAUTION: When checking system
reiief pressure, run engine only long
enough to observe gage reading; pump
may be damaged if engine is aiiowed to
run for an excessive length of time.
Fig, 7—Exploded view of
power steering pump used
with remote reservoir. Note
position of flow control
valve spring (4) and that
small tip on vaive {3) Is
towards spring.
On 8600 and 9600 models, with pump
and reservoir as an integral unit, if
pressure is not as specified, pump must
be removed from engine. Drain reser-
voir and refer to Fig. 8. Remove
reservoir (2) and filter (3). Remove relief
valve body (24), shims (25) and spring
(26). Shims are available in 0.010, 0.015
and 0.060 inch thicknesses. Each shim
will change the pressure by the following
approximate values: 0.010 inch—70 psi,
0.015 inch—105 psi, 0.060 inch—420 psi.
Tighten relief valve to 30-40 ft.-lbs.

11. R&R AND OVERHAUL PUMP.
(REMOTE RESERVOIR). Thoroughly
clean pump, lines and surrounding area.
Disconnect lines from pump and allow
fluid to drain. Cap all openings to pre-
vent dirt from entering pump or lines,
then unbolt and remove pump assem-
bly from engine front plate. When rein-
stalling pump, use new sealing "0" ring
and tighten retaining bolts to a torque of
23-30 ft.-lbs. Reconnect lines, fill and
bleed system as in paragraph 7.
Refer to exploded view of remote
reservoir model pump in Fig. 7 and dis-
assemble pump as follows: Scribe an
assembly mark across pump covers and
body. Straighten tab on washer (34) and
remove nut (35). Pull drive gear (33)
from pump shaft and remove key (36).
Remove the four through-bolts and
separate rear cover assembly (15),
plate (18), body (24) and front cover
(29). Remove bearing blocks (21 and 26)
and gears (22 and 23) from pump as a
unit. Remove caps (1, 7 and 13) from
rear cover (15) and withdraw flow
control valve (3), pressure relief valve
(10) and related parts. Remove locating
snap ring (31) and the oil seal (30) from
front cover. Clean all parts in a suitable
solvent, air dry, then lightly oil all
machined surfaces.
Inspect bearing blocks (21 and 26) for
signs of seizure or scoring on face of
journals. (When disassembling bearing
block and gear unit, keep parts in
relative position to facilitate reassem-
bly). Light score marks on faces of
bearing blocks can be removed by
lapping bearing block on a surface plate
using grade "0" emery paper and
kerosene. Examine body for wear in
gear running track. If track is worn
deeper than 0.0025 inch on inlet side,
body must be renewed. Examine pump
for excessive wear or damage on
journals, journal bores in bearing blocks
or teeth. Runout across the gear face to
gear tooth edge should not exceed 0.001
inch. If necessary, the gear journals may
be lightly polished with grade "0" emery
paper to remove wear marks. The gear
faces may be polished by sandwiching
grade "0" emery paper between gear
and face of scrap bearing block, then
rotating the gear. New gears are avail-
able in matched sets only. If flow control
valve (3) or rear cover (15) are scored or
damaged, they must be renewed as a
matched set only.
When reassembling pump, install all
new seals, "0" rings and sealing rings.
Insert new drive shaft oil seal (30) in
front plate and install locating snap ring.
Install flow control valve (3), spring (4)
and plugs (1 and 13) with new "0" rings
(2 and 14). Install pressure relief valve
(10), spring (9) and plug (7), being sure
that all shims (6) are in plug and using
new "0" ring (8). Assemble pump gears
to bearing blocks and insert the unit into
pump body. Be sure the two bolt rings
(hollow dowels) are in place in pump
body, then position the front cover on
body. Place the rear plate (18) at rear of
body and install rear cover. Tighten the
four cap screws (through-bolts) to a
torque of 13-17 ft.-lbs. Install the pump
drive gear key, drive gear, tab washer
and nut. Tighten the nut to a torque of
55-60 ft.-lbs. and bend tab of washer
against flat on nut.

GRAL RESERVOIR PUMP. For ex
ploded view of parts used on models with
integral pump and reservoir refer to Fig.
8. Clean pump and surrounding area and
disconnect pump pressure and return
lines. Remove the two cap screws
securing pump to engine front cover and
lift off pump and reservoir as a unit.
Drain the reservoir and remove
through-bolt (1), reservoir (2) and filter
(3).

cess to shims (25) grasp seat (30) lightly
in a protected vise and unscrew
body (24). Shims (25) are available in
thicknesses of 0.010, 0.015 and 0.060
inch. Starting with the removed shim
pack substitute shims, thus varying total
pack thickness, to adjust opening
pressure. Available shims permit thick-
ness adjustment in increments of 0.005
inch and each 0.005 inch in shim pack
thickness will change opening pressure
about 35 psi. If parts are renewed, the
correct thickness can only be determined
by trial and error, using the removed
shim pack as a guide.
To disassemble the pump, bend back
tab washer and remove shaft nut (23),
drive gear (22) and key (12). Mark or
note relative positions of flange housing
(18), pump body (13) and cover (6); then
remove pump through bolts (5). Keep
parts in their proper relative position
when disassembling pump unit. Pump
gears (10 and 11) are available in a
matched set only. Bearing blocks (9) are
available separately but should be
renewed in pairs if renewal is because of
wear. Bearing blocks should also be
renewed with gear set if any shaft or
bore wear is evident. Examine body (13)
for wear in gear running track. If track
is worn deeper than 0.025 inch on inlet
side, body must be renewed. Renew all
"0" rings and seals.
When reassembling the pump, tighten
through bolts (5) to a torque of 25 ft.-lbs.
and drive gear nut (23) and relief valve
body (24) to a torque of 30-40 ft.-lbs.
