What's in it

After the general specs and weights, the structure and function chapter covers the torque converter, the transmission, the axles, the brakes, the steering, the work equipment hydraulics and the electrical system. Testing and adjusting and the troubleshooting chapter come next. Disassembly and assembly and the maintenance standards finish it, across 582 pages.

WA180s are common in yards, farms, quarries and recycling sites, and many are now on their second or third owner. The book helps with the usual jobs on an older loader: transmission clutch problems, brake wear, steering faults and slow lift or tilt.

Having the factory pressures to test against is the quickest way to tell a worn pump from a sticking valve.

Good to know

A tip from shops that use these books every day: read the structure and function pages for a system before you start testing it. Knowing how the valves and circuits are meant to work makes the test results much easier to read. The standard values then tell you whether a reading is normal, borderline or out of spec, and the wear limits decide whether a part goes back in.
