We have a 2020 Yanmar vio 55-6b excavator .I cannot find any information about the hydraulic system either online or through the dealers we purchased it from .I was hoping that some one could help me out with this .Ideally I would like to purchase full schematic diagrams of the valving system / relief valves / hoses , and diagnostics , [ work shop service manual ? ]....naming the individual items , and their functions .My intention is to purchase a hydraulic pressure gauge set with fittings hoses etc .I am a diesel mechanic in NZ , and my hydraulic knowledge is limited to just the basics , and I would like to investigate the weak tracking power of this machine , ...it is up to spec / speed , on the flat ,.... however it drops power dramatically even on a 5 - 10 degree incline , [ with very little loading audible from the engine ] ...it has done this from new , and now only has 870 hours on the clock . The agents told me that this was normal , I refuse to believe this , as after they set up the tracking pressures to maximum allowable under warranty ,...with an expensive digital hydraulic pressure / flow guage, they didn't seem to understand the difference or association between pressure and volume , as I asked them about flow control valves , if there was such a thing , I just got a blank look . Maybe I am wrong , and would appreciate any help at all . thankyou .
