Pintle seal on hydrostatic pump access question. Order of removing cover pls

[Vintagecarlover]

Trying to get to the pintle seals on right top of hydrostatic pump 753G bobcat. Can anyone send that section of a manual to do this job or give order of how to get cover plate off? Best way to mark the steering stuff before removal? Any tips appreciated.

You need to remove the centering spring, the top plate will slide off, remove the steering linkages, then the 3 bolts per cover for the seals, very easy to get at. Drain your hydraulic tank first, oil will ooze out the bearings when you take the covers off.
The hardest part is putting the spring back in, it has been done with large cable ties to compress the spring to make it easier, i used a pry bar and a LOT of swearing to get mine back on....
