2026-05-08 15:17
Discover the advantages of Brake Motors (OMT) for importers and how they can boost your business.
In the hydraulic systems of construction machinery, agricultural machinery, environmental sanitation equipment, and small loaders, manual multi-way hydraulic valves (Series P40/P80/ZT/ZD) and hydraulic motors (cycloid motors/travel motors) are core executive components that directly determine the sensitivity, load capacity, and service life of the equipment. During daily operations, affected by working conditions, oil quality, operating habits, and equipment aging, the most common faults include: oil leakage, weak action, slow speed, oil cross-contamination, lifting jamming, weak motor travel, abnormal noise, and vibration.
Many mechanics, equipment manufacturers, and distributors often blindly replace the entire valve or motor when encountering such problems, which not only increases maintenance costs but also delays the operation progress. In fact, most faults do not require overall replacement. By identifying the root cause, the equipment can be repaired through simple debugging and parts replacement. Today, we will sort out the common faults, in-depth causes, and practical solutions of hydraulic valves and hydraulic motors in plain language with detailed steps, accompanied by pictures and tables. Save it for later use, and you will no longer repair equipment blindly. For more professional hydraulic system knowledge, you can refer to the official technical guide of the International Fluid Power Society: https://www.ifps.org/technical-resources.
I. Common Faults of Manual Multi-way Hydraulic Valves (Universal for Series P40/P80/ZT-L20/ZD102/ZT12/ZDa15/ZSL118)
As the "control center" of the hydraulic system, the manual multi-way hydraulic valve is responsible for switching oil circuits, adjusting pressure, and controlling the action of executive components. Faults are mostly concentrated on core components such as seals, valve cores, and relief valves. The following are 4 types of common faults, with detailed analysis of causes and maintenance steps. For the standard specifications of hydraulic valves, you can check the official website of ISO: https://www.iso.org/standard/63197.html.
1. Valve Body Leakage and Joint Seepage (Most Common, Accounting for 40%)
Fault Phenomenon: Oil stains appear on the valve body surface, the connection between the valve stem and the handle, the valve body mounting surface, and the oil port joint. Slight seepage will lead to oil loss, and severe seepage will cause insufficient system pressure and weak equipment action.
Main Causes (Detailed Analysis)
Seal Aging/Damage: The dust cover and seal ring at the valve stem are hardened, cracked, and worn due to long-term oil immersion and temperature changes, losing their sealing effect; the oil port joint seal ring and the valve body joint gasket are aged and damaged.
Improper Installation: The valve body mounting surface is contaminated with oil and impurities, resulting in uneven installation; the fixing bolts are tightened unevenly, resulting in gaps from which oil seeps; the joint is not tightened enough, leading to poor sealing.
Oil Problems: The use of inferior hydraulic oil, oil with inconsistent viscosity, or excessive impurities in the oil will scratch the valve stem surface and seals, leading to seal failure; excessive oil temperature (exceeding 60℃) accelerates the aging and deformation of seals. For the selection of hydraulic oil, refer to the official guide of Shell: https://www.shell.com/business-customers/industrial-lubricants/hydraulic-fluids.html.
Valve Body Wear: After long-term use, the fit gap between the valve stem and the valve body becomes too large, and oil seeps from the gap; casting defects of the valve body (such as sand holes) lead to internal oil leakage.
Solutions (Practical Steps, Easy for Beginners)
Shutdown and Pressure Relief: First, turn off the equipment engine and wait for the hydraulic system pressure to be completely released (about 5-10 minutes) to avoid oil injection injury during maintenance. For the standard operation of hydraulic system pressure relief, refer to the official manual of Parker Hannifin: https://www.parker.com/literature/Hydraulic%20Technology%20Handbook.pdf.
Troubleshoot Leakage Points: Wipe the valve body surface, joints, and mounting surface with a rag, start the equipment for no-load operation, observe the leakage position, and clarify whether the leakage is from the valve stem, joint, mounting surface, or the valve body itself.
Targeted Maintenance:
Seal Damage: Replace the corresponding model seal repair kit (it is recommended to use original or highly compatible seals to avoid size mismatch). For the valve stem, first clean the oil stains and scratches on the valve stem surface, then install a new seal ring; replace the new seal ring at the joint and tighten the joint (moderate force to avoid thread slipping).
Improper Installation: Disassemble the valve body, clean the oil stains and impurities on the mounting surface, and reinstall it smoothly; tighten the fixing bolts evenly diagonally (it is recommended to use a torque wrench and tighten according to the torque specified in the equipment manual).
Oil Problems: Completely replace with 46# anti-wear hydraulic oil, clean or replace the oil inlet filter and oil return filter, and install a hydraulic oil filter to prevent impurities from entering the valve body again.
Valve Body Wear: For slight wear, the valve stem can be repaired by grinding and the seals can be replaced; for severe wear (valve stem deformation, valve body sand holes), directly replace with the same model multi-way valve (such as P40, P80, ZT-L20, etc., domestic alternative models can be directly interchanged).
Test and Acceptance: After maintenance, start the equipment for no-load operation for 5 minutes, observe whether there is still leakage, and perform load operation after confirming no leakage.

2. Multi-way Valve Oil Cross-contamination, Neutral Pressure Relief, and Automatic Dropping (Affecting Operational Safety, Needing Timely Handling)
Fault Phenomenon: When the handle is in the neutral position, the equipment executive components (such as bucket, oil cylinder) automatically drop and release pressure; oil cross-contamination between different oil circuits leads to incorrect actions (such as tilting while lifting); the system pressure cannot be stably maintained, and the pressure drops rapidly under load.
Main Causes (Detailed Analysis)
Valve Core Wear: After long-term use, the fit surface between the valve core and the valve body is worn, and the gap is too large, leading to oil cross-contamination between different oil circuits; the valve core surface has scratches and burrs, leading to jamming of the valve core, failure to fully reset, and poor neutral sealing.
Relief Valve Fault: The relief valve core is stuck and worn, or the pressure regulating spring is fatigued and broken, leading to the relief valve's failure to regulate pressure normally; when the system pressure is too high, it cannot relieve pressure in time, and long-term high pressure will aggravate oil cross-contamination; the relief valve seal is aged, leading to internal leakage. For relief valve maintenance technology, refer to the official guide of Bosch Rexroth: https://www.boschrexroth.com/en-us/knowledge-center/hydraulic-components/relief-valves.
Excessive Oil Impurities: Impurities enter the valve core and relief valve, jamming the valve core, leading to seal failure, oil cross-contamination, and pressure relief.
Aging of Internal Seals in Valve Body: The internal oil circuit seals of the valve body are aged and damaged, leading to oil cross-contamination between oil circuits and reduced neutral pressure holding capacity.
Solutions (Practical Steps)
Shutdown and Pressure Relief: Turn off the engine, release the hydraulic system pressure, disassemble the multi-way valve end cover, and take out the valve core and relief valve.
Cleaning and Inspection: Clean the valve core, valve body, and relief valve with kerosene or hydraulic oil, check whether the valve core surface is worn or scratched, whether the relief valve spring is fatigued or broken, and whether the seals are aged.
Targeted Maintenance:
Slight Valve Core Wear: Grind the fit surface between the valve core and the valve body with abrasive paste to repair scratches and replace internal seals; if the valve core is severely worn, replace the valve core assembly or the entire valve.
Relief Valve Fault: Replace the relief valve core, seals, and pressure regulating spring, and re-adjust the relief valve pressure (adjust according to the rated pressure of the equipment, generally 16-25MPa, refer to the equipment manual for details).
Oil Impurity Problem: Replace the hydraulic oil, clean the filter element and oil circuit, and ensure the oil is clean.
Assembly and Testing: Reassemble the valve core and relief valve, tighten the end cover, start the equipment, test the neutral pressure holding capacity, observe whether there is still oil cross-contamination and automatic dropping, and adjust to normal.

3. Weak Action, Slow Lifting, and Failure to Lift Load (Affecting Operational Efficiency, Common Fault)
Fault Phenomenon: After operating the handle, the equipment executive components (such as bucket, oil cylinder) move slowly, lift weakly, and cannot drive the rated load; the action is stuck under load, or even stops; the system pressure gauge shows low pressure.
Main Causes (Detailed Analysis)
Improper Pressure Adjustment: The pressure of the multi-way valve relief valve is adjusted too low, lower than the rated working pressure of the equipment, leading to insufficient system pressure to meet the load demand.
Oil Problems: The use of inferior hydraulic oil, insufficient oil viscosity (such as not replacing low-temperature hydraulic oil in winter) leads to high oil flow resistance and insufficient oil supply; excessive impurities in the oil block the oil inlet filter and oil circuit, leading to poor oil supply.
Severe Internal Leakage of Valve Body: The valve core and valve body are worn, and the gap is too large, leading to internal oil leakage, failure to establish system pressure; internal leakage of the relief valve leads to pressure loss.
Hydraulic Pump Fault: Insufficient oil supply and pressure of the hydraulic pump lead to the multi-way valve failing to obtain sufficient oil, thereby affecting the action force and speed (indirect fault, need to troubleshoot). For hydraulic pump maintenance, refer to the official manual of Danfoss: https://www.danfoss.com/en-us/products/hydraulics/pumps/.
Solutions (Practical Steps)
Check Pressure: Start the equipment, check the system pressure gauge to confirm whether the pressure reaches the rated pressure of the equipment; if the pressure is too low, adjust the relief valve and gradually increase the pressure (increase by 0.5MPa each time to avoid damaging the equipment by adjusting to too high at one time).
Check Oil: Observe the color and transparency of the hydraulic oil; if the oil is turbid, has impurities, or is black, immediately replace it with 46# anti-wear hydraulic oil; check the oil level, and supplement to the standard level if insufficient; clean the oil inlet filter and oil return filter, and unblock the oil circuit.
Troubleshoot Internal Leakage: Turn off the equipment, disassemble the multi-way valve, check the wear of the valve core and valve body; if worn severely, replace the valve core or the entire valve; check the internal leakage of the relief valve, and replace the seals or relief valve.
Troubleshoot Hydraulic Pump: If the problem of weakness still exists after the above operations, check the hydraulic pump to confirm whether the oil supply of the pump is normal; if the pump is faulty, repair or replace it.
Test and Acceptance: After debugging, perform load operation to confirm that the action force and speed return to normal and the pressure is stable.

4. Handle Jamming and Inflexible Commutation (Inconvenient Operation, Prone to Misoperation)
Fault Phenomenon: When operating the multi-way valve handle, the hand feel is heavy and stuck, and it cannot commutate smoothly; the handle is difficult to reset, or there is still action after reset; the handle connecting rod is loose and shakes.
Main Causes (Detailed Analysis)
Oil Impurity Jamming: Impurities in the oil enter between the valve stem and the valve body, leading to blocked movement of the valve stem and handle jamming.
Handle Connecting Rod Problems: The connecting rod is deformed or loose, or the connection part between the connecting rod and the valve stem is worn, leading to unsmooth handle operation and difficult reset.
Positioning Spring Failure: The positioning spring inside the handle is fatigued and broken, leading to the handle's failure to reset normally or jamming after reset.
Valve Stem Wear: The valve stem surface is worn and deformed, and the fit gap with the valve body is uneven, leading to blocked movement of the valve stem.
Solutions (Practical Steps)
Check Connecting Rod: Turn off the equipment, observe whether the handle connecting rod is deformed or loose; if loose, tighten the connecting bolts; if deformed, straighten the connecting rod or replace it.
Disassembly and Cleaning: Disassemble the handle and multi-way valve end cover, take out the valve stem, clean the valve stem and valve body with kerosene, remove impurities, and check the wear of the valve stem surface.
Replace Accessories: If the positioning spring fails, replace it with a new one; if the valve stem is slightly worn, repair it by grinding; if worn severely, replace the valve stem.
Assembly and Testing: Reassemble the handle and valve stem, start the equipment, test the flexibility of handle commutation, and ensure no jamming and normal reset.
II. Common Faults of Hydraulic Motors (Universal for Cycloid Motors/BM Series/Travel Motors)
As the "power output component" of the hydraulic system, the hydraulic motor is responsible for converting hydraulic energy into mechanical energy to drive equipment travel, rotation, and other actions. Faults are mostly concentrated on internal precision components (rotor, valve plate, bearing) and seals. The following are 4 types of common faults, with detailed analysis. For the technical parameters of hydraulic motors, refer to the official website of Eaton: https://www.eaton.com/us/en-us/products/hydraulics/motors.html.
1. Slow Motor Speed, Failure to Rotate, Normal No-load but Weak Under Load (Most Common, Affecting Operational Efficiency)
Fault Phenomenon: The motor can rotate normally under no-load but with slow speed; it cannot rotate under load, or the speed drops sharply, unable to drive the load; the equipment travels slowly and has weak climbing ability.
Main Causes (Detailed Analysis)
Internal Motor Wear: The stator, rotor, and valve plate of the cycloid motor are severely worn, and the fit gap is too large, leading to severe internal oil leakage, failure to effectively convert hydraulic energy into mechanical energy, and reduced output power.
Insufficient System Pressure: The pressure of the multi-way valve relief valve is adjusted too low, or the multi-way valve has internal leakage, leading to insufficient oil pressure supplied to the motor and failure to meet the load demand.
Oil Inlet Pipeline Problems: The oil inlet pipeline is leaking or blocked, or the oil suction filter is blocked, leading to insufficient oil inlet and low oil supply pressure of the motor; the pipeline is too long or has too many bends, leading to high oil flow resistance.
Oil Problems: Insufficient oil viscosity, inferior oil, or excessive impurities in the oil wear the internal precision components of the motor and aggravate internal leakage; excessive oil temperature leads to decreased oil viscosity and increased internal leakage.
Motor Bearing Damage: The internal bearing is worn or stuck, leading to the motor's failure to rotate, or high rotation resistance and slow speed.
Solutions (Practical Steps)
Troubleshoot Pressure: Start the equipment, check the system pressure gauge to confirm whether the oil pressure supplied to the motor reaches the rated pressure; if the pressure is insufficient, adjust the multi-way valve relief valve to increase the pressure.
Check Pipeline: Check whether the oil inlet pipeline is leaking or blocked, tighten the joints, and clean the pipeline impurities; check the oil suction filter, and clean or replace it if blocked; shorten the pipeline length and reduce bends to reduce flow resistance.
Check Oil: Replace with 46# anti-wear hydraulic oil, clean the filter element and oil circuit, and ensure the oil is clean; check the oil temperature, and if it is too high, check the cooling system to avoid the oil temperature exceeding 60℃.
Disassemble Motor: If the problem of weakness still exists after the above operations, disassemble the motor, check the wear of the internal stator, rotor, valve plate, and bearing, and replace the worn parts and seals; if worn severely, directly replace with the same model motor (domestic alternative models can be selected for cycloid motors with higher cost performance).
Test and Acceptance: Assemble the motor, start the equipment, test the motor speed and load capacity, and ensure normal operation.

2. Motor Oil Leakage and Shaft End Seepage (Oil Loss, Affecting Environment and Equipment)
Fault Phenomenon: Oil seeps or leaks from the motor shaft end, end cover, and oil port joint; in severe cases, a large amount of oil is lost, leading to motor oil shortage and aggravated internal wear.
Main Causes (Detailed Analysis)
Shaft Seal Aging/Damage: The skeleton oil seal at the motor shaft end is hardened, cracked, and worn due to long-term oil immersion, temperature changes, and shaft surface friction, losing its sealing effect. For the selection and replacement of shaft seals, refer to the official guide of SKF: https://www.skf.com/us/en/products/seals.
Shaft Surface Scratching: The surface of the motor output shaft has scratches, burrs, or wear, leading to the oil seal's failure to fit closely and oil seepage from the gap.
Installation Deviation: The coaxiality deviation is too large during motor installation, leading to uneven force on the shaft end, uneven wear of the oil seal, and accelerated damage; the end cover bolts are tightened unevenly, resulting in gaps from which oil seeps.
Aging of Motor End Cover Seals: The gasket between the end cover and the motor housing is aged and damaged, leading to oil seepage from the joint.
Solutions (Practical Steps)
Shutdown and Pressure Relief: Turn off the engine, release the hydraulic system pressure, disassemble the connection between the motor and the pipeline, and take out the motor.
Troubleshoot Leakage Points: Wipe the motor surface to clarify whether the leakage is from the shaft end, end cover, or oil port.
Targeted Maintenance:
Shaft End Seepage: Replace the shaft end skeleton oil seal; if the shaft surface has scratches, repair the shaft surface with abrasive paste to ensure it is smooth; apply a small amount of grease during installation to protect the oil seal.
End Cover Seepage: Replace the end cover gasket and tighten the end cover bolts evenly diagonally.
Oil Port Seepage: Replace the oil port joint seal ring and tighten the joint.
Reinstallation: Ensure the coaxiality of motor installation to avoid uneven wear; connect the pipeline, supplement hydraulic oil, start the equipment for testing, and confirm no leakage.
3. Motor Abnormal Noise, Vibration, and Unstable Operation (Prone to Damaging Internal Components, Needing Timely Troubleshooting)
Fault Phenomenon: The motor makes abnormal noise (such as "clicking sound" and "buzzing sound") during operation, and the body vibrates violently; the speed is fast and slow, the operation is unstable, and even jamming occurs.
Main Causes (Detailed Analysis)
Internal Bearing Damage: The internal bearing of the motor is worn, stuck, or the bearing balls fall off, leading to abnormal noise and vibration during motor operation.
Stator and Rotor Wear: The stator and rotor are severely worn, and the fit gap is uneven, leading to impact sound during operation and vibration.
Oil Aeration: Air enters the hydraulic system, generating bubbles in the oil; the bubbles burst inside the motor, resulting in cavitation, leading to abnormal noise and vibration. For hydraulic system aeration troubleshooting, refer to the official guide of the National Fluid Power Association: https://www.nfpa.com/technical-resources.
Pipeline Vibration: The oil inlet and return pipelines are not firmly fixed; when the motor operates, the pipeline vibrates and is transmitted to the motor, leading to overall vibration.
Valve Plate Wear: The valve plate is worn unevenly, leading to uneven oil distribution, unstable motor operation, and abnormal noise.
Solutions (Practical Steps)
Troubleshoot Aeration: Start the equipment, observe the hydraulic oil tank; if there are a lot of bubbles in the tank, it indicates air enters the system. Check the pipeline joints and oil pump suction port, tighten the joints, and repair the air leakage points; open the system exhaust valve to empty the internal air.
Check Pipeline: Check whether the oil inlet and return pipelines are firmly fixed; if loose, reinforce the pipeline fixing buckles to reduce pipeline vibration.
Disassemble Motor: If there is still abnormal noise and vibration, disassemble the motor, check the wear of the bearing, stator, rotor, and valve plate, and replace the worn parts; if the bearing is stuck, directly replace the bearing.
Test and Acceptance: Assemble the motor, start the equipment, test the motor operation, and ensure no abnormal noise, no vibration, and stable speed.

4. Motor Speed Fluctuation and Unstable Action (Affecting Equipment Operation Accuracy)
Fault Phenomenon: The motor speed is fast and slow, and the output power is unstable; the equipment travels fast and slow, unable to drive at a constant speed; the speed fluctuates significantly when the load changes.
Main Causes (Detailed Analysis)
Unstable Oil Supply Flow: The hydraulic pump supplies oil unevenly, or the multi-way valve core is stuck, leading to fluctuating oil flow supplied to the motor and speed fluctuation.
Oil Aeration: Air enters the system, and bubbles in the oil enter the motor with the oil, leading to unstable motor output power and fluctuating speed.
Uneven Internal Leakage of Motor: The stator, rotor, and valve plate are worn unevenly, leading to fluctuating internal oil leakage and unstable output speed.
Relief Valve Fluctuation: The pressure regulation of the multi-way valve relief valve is unstable, leading to system pressure fluctuation, which in turn affects the motor speed.
Solutions (Practical Steps)
Troubleshoot Oil Supply: Check the hydraulic pump to confirm whether the oil supply is uniform; if the pump is faulty, repair or replace it; disassemble the multi-way valve, clean the valve core, and ensure flexible movement of the valve core without jamming.
Empty Air: Open the system exhaust valve to empty the internal air; check the pipeline joints, repair the air leakage points, and avoid air entering the system.
Check Motor: Disassemble the motor, check the wear of the internal stator, rotor, and valve plate, replace the worn parts, and ensure uniform internal leakage.
Adjust Relief Valve: Re-adjust the multi-way valve relief valve to ensure stable pressure and avoid pressure fluctuation.
Test and Acceptance: Start the equipment, test the motor speed, and ensure stable speed without fluctuation.

IV. Daily Maintenance Tips (Reduce 80% of Faults, Extend Service Life)
80% of the faults of hydraulic valves and hydraulic motors are caused by improper daily maintenance. Doing the following 5 points can greatly reduce the fault rate, extend the service life of the equipment, and reduce maintenance costs. For more comprehensive hydraulic system maintenance guidelines, refer to the official manual of Caterpillar: https://www.cat.com/en_US/support/maintenance.html.
Maintenance Item | Maintenance Cycle | Maintenance Content | Notes |
Hydraulic Oil Replacement | Every 300-500 hours, or 6 months | Replace with 46# anti-wear hydraulic oil, and thoroughly clean the oil tank and oil circuit | It is forbidden to use inferior hydraulic oil or mix different brands of oil |
Filter Replacement | Every 100-200 hours, or every oil change | Replace the oil inlet filter and oil return filter, and check the filter contamination | Replace the filter in time when it is blocked to avoid impurities entering the system |
System Air Bleeding | After each equipment startup, or after oil replacement and pipeline replacement | Open the exhaust valve to empty the internal air of the system | Unbled air will cause motor abnormal noise and unstable action |
Seal Inspection | Every 150 hours, or during each maintenance | Check the hydraulic valve and motor seals, and replace them in time if they are aged or damaged | Apply a small amount of grease when replacing seals to protect the sealing surface |
Cleaning and Protection | After daily operation, or before long-term parking | Clean the oil stains and dust on the surface of hydraulic valves and motors, and do a good job in dustproof protection | Block the oil port when parking for a long time to avoid impurities entering |
V. General Model Replacement Suggestions (Reduce Maintenance Costs, Improve Efficiency)
The commonly used manual multi-way hydraulic valves (P40, P80, P120, ZT-L20, ZD102, ZT12, ZDa15, ZSL118) and cycloid hydraulic motors (BM series) on the market all have high-compatibility domestic alternative models. There is no need to replace pipelines or adjust installation dimensions, and they can be directly interchanged with imported brands such as OMFB, Bulgarian original factory, and Danfoss. For the interchangeability standard of hydraulic components, refer to the official website of ISO: https://www.iso.org/standards.html. The specific advantages are as follows:
Price Advantage: The price of domestic alternative models is only 1/3-1/2 of that of imported parts, which greatly reduces maintenance costs.
Compatibility Advantage: The installation dimensions, oil circuit function, pressure and flow parameters are completely matched with imported parts, which can be directly replaced without modification.
Quality Advantage: It adopts high-strength cast iron and high-quality seals, which are wear-resistant and anti-pollution. The service life is close to that of imported parts, which can meet the needs of daily operations.
Conclusion (Lead Generation and Customer Retention, Business-oriented)
The faults of hydraulic valves and hydraulic motors are mainly related to three key words: "seal, oil, and wear". As long as the root cause of the fault is identified and the above steps are followed, most faults do not require overall replacement, and can be restored to normal through simple maintenance or same-model replacement. Doing a good job in daily maintenance can reduce faults, extend service life, and reduce equipment operation costs.
