JCB 3CX Black Cab 1986 - Workshop Manual Needed

Hello,
Does anyone know where I can get a workshop manual for a 1986 3CX "Black Cab"?
I have tried looking in the downloads, but the manual there is for the later 3CX.

Thanks, Gary

Re: What Sort Of Hydraulic Oil?

Hello, i'm not sure if you are just topping up the hydraulic fluid or replacing it. If you are replacing the fluid then it holds 195 litres!!

I've found if the machine has a few leaks then topping it up with just 20L does nothing! Last top up took 60L to bring it upto the bottom of the level tube!

JCB 5C 13Ton Grading/Ditching Bucket

Re: JCB 3C Mk3 Powertrain - Shuttle problem & Oils Needed?

Hello Phil and Pete, Just to let you know that it was the dump spool causing the problems. Somehow the rod which connects to the pedal had got bent slightly so the spool was out a little all the time. A few turns on the nut to adjust it and it now has plenty of power in forward and reverse. There is...

Re: JCB 3C Mk3 Powertrain - Shuttle problem & Oils Needed?

Fair enough Pete. At least you have the knowledge still. I drained and re-filled the T/C oil today and then did it again to get more new oil in the system. I also changed the filter.... I still have no forward or reverse though. Time to take the little sump off and check the strainer! Phil you menti...

Very close then Pete, I'm only in Hockey. Do you have many machines yourself?

Yes I have met Gary a few times and go there for fluids.

Phil, how do you adjust the dump spool? These powertrains are new to me, only played around with the common manual box on other 3c's

Hello Pete, thanks for the reply and your advise.

Where in Essex are you from? I noticed in one of your other posts you use Euro Lube, so I'm guessing your around the Southend area like myself?

JCB 3C Mk3 Powertrain - Shuttle problem & Oils Needed?

Hello all, I have just bought a JCB 3C mk3 Powertrain. At the moment it will reverse but doesn't go forward. People have mentioned the forward clutch pack will need replacing, but others have mentioned changing the oil in the torque converter will sometimes solve the problem. Could anyone let me kno...

Re: 3C2 Cutting out? - Fuel Tank?

Hello,
do you still need ideas to stop the dirt getting into the fuel system?
I had a similar problem a year ago and found a way or sorted it for good (well its worked for 14months so far)
