Same Virtus 130 help

[Thomas5060]

Evening folks, mate is just off the phone, his 2019 2000 hour virtus 130 has lost hydraulics, steering is fine and tractor drives, but nothing else works. The arms don’t go up or down and the spools don’t work, doesn’t even try to pump when the levers are pulled. Any ideas?

Surely next step is to get a pressure test done

What back end has a Virtus got? If it’s the old SLH backend then it will have two pumps driven off same gear with splined couplings. They can wear and strip the splines if oil level is not kept near max but being 2019 it can’t have done enough but pump or shaft failure is possible.

Silly question but has it enough oil in? Steering pump will have a lower pickup point.

EDIT: Think they have a ZF Agrotron based backend so scrap the above idea!!!

Yes I think you are right about it being a ZF backend
Oil level is fine. Could it be a priority valve?

They will still be two different pumps though, steering and transmission will run off a gear pump, hydraulics off another pump most possibly a CCLS piston pump

Yes quite possible, I had that shaft eat itself at 1900 hours

Going way way back in time, On the Same, I used to drive, you had to power up the hydraulics I think by rotating the lift knob a full cycle. They are not locked out by some way are they?
