Oil leak/cracked axle?

I have a puzzling oil leak on my TEF20 (S/no294795). Hydraulic oil is seeping from the pivot point for the bottom link on the 3pt lift. The shaft for the pivot seems to be held by a clamp plate on the trumpet that is bolted on with a single stud. All the drawings and workshop manuals seem to suggest that this shaft screws straight into the trumpet. The oil leak in itself does not bother me but does it mean there is a crack somewhere in the axle trumpet?

Any help would be gratefully received

Mark

Mark, What side is it on? If it's on the right looking to the PTO shaft from the rear your in luck. The pin does indeed go all the way though the trumpet.
It will have a flat machined surface on the inside of the housing. The stud is probably sheared off but held in place by the small bolt. The stud is long enough that it stays in place from friction. I doubt the nut worked loose, it is a castellated nut with a cotter pin. If it's on the right side you can pull the PTO shaft and reach inside to access the nut. (my hand was sore and it was a tight sgueeze but do-able.) The left side has the rear axle ring gear in the way. That's a trumpet removal! But even so pulling the pto and with a mirror you could see the problem. I would bet you will find the nut sheared off and in the bottom of the axle housing. I know because I fixed one of mine with that problem. I saved the nut as a souviner. Sorry about the long post.
Hope it works out. Feel free to e-mail me if ou need more detail.
Joe

Thanks Joe. Guess what.. I've only just overhauled the PTO shaft with new bearing and seal and filled the transmission with nice clean water free oil. Cleaning all the gunk out is probably what let the oil start leaking out. Oh well where are my spanners....

When looking it seems to me that your serial number indicates that the pivot pins go all the way through and have a nut on the inside.

It might be a case of tightening if they are not worn too much from load while loose. One can be reached thru the top, the other calls for a trumpet split. Try tightening from outside first, it just might be so, that the lockwasher holds the nut.

Thanks Henning, it looks like its going to be a trumpet split to cure this problem. The pivot pin is slack in the housing and I assume it is the inner nut that is the problem as the outer nut is tight. Can you point me in the direction of a drawing so I have a better idea as to what is involved.

Thanks Mark

This shows the worx.
This site has most of the exploded views worth looking at. The text is in swedish, but if you point out what you want translated, i'll be happy to crack the code for you. Take a peek at index no 8. it shows your pin.
New pins are available from Bareco in CA. Website is located in Australia but points to an affiliate outlet in CA. Henning
