FAQs

Why Does a Hydrostatic Drive Lose Power After the Machine Warms Up?

A hydrostatic drive that weakens as fluid temperature rises may have internal leakage, worn pump or motor components, or fluid that can no longer maintain proper pressure. Testing the system hot helps show whether performance is dropping only after clearances expand under operating temperature.

What Causes a Hydrostatic Transmission to Move Slowly in One Direction?

Slow movement in only forward or reverse can point to control linkage problems, directional valve issues, uneven pump output, or internal leakage in part of the drive circuit. Comparing pressure and response in both directions helps technicians isolate where the hydrostatic system is losing efficiency.

Why Does a Hydrostatic Machine Jerk or Surge During Acceleration?

Jerking or surging can develop from air in the system, unstable charge pressure, worn controls, contaminated fluid, or inconsistent pump response. Because the symptom appears during load changes, technicians may monitor pressure while accelerating to identify where hydraulic delivery becomes unstable.

What Causes Low Charge Pressure in a Hydrostatic Drive System?

Low charge pressure can result from a weak charge pump, restricted filter, suction leak, low fluid level, or excessive internal leakage. Since charge pressure supports lubrication and keeps the drive circuit supplied, continued operation with low pressure can accelerate wear in the pump and motor.

Cannot say enough good things about Caleb and the crew here. I travel for work and the rig is what gets me there. Although they couldn’t fix my issue within my tight schedule they still diagnosed everything and gave me good info about where to safely bunk down until my company brings another vehicle in. If I ever find myself in this part of Texas with an issue again - I know who I’m calling.
Hex 6 is resourceful and helpful! We were on a summer road trip when our camper’s suspension broke on the interstate, leaving us stranded and needing to stay overnight in Tyler. Hex 6 provided useful information during a challenging time even when they didn’t have the part. We truly appreciated the assistance and support. Thank you for helping us get back on the road!

Second repair to my 30HP Kubota at Hex6. Axle issue first and steering second. Timing was good to complete considering their shop load. Cost in line or better than other options. Good staff. Most pleased overall.
Wow, what a great Company. Caleb was in constant contact and the bill came out much less than the estimate! The technician was on time, very knowledgeable and the job was done quickly. I will use them every time for my tractor work! Thanks Hex 6!
