SECTION 3. TROUBLESHOOTING
In many cases, problems with the 310-2200 are
not related to a defective transaxle, but are
caused by slipping drive belts, partially engaged
bypass valves, and loose or damaged control
linkages. Be sure to perform all operational
checks and adjustments outlined in Section 4,
Service and Maintenance, before assuming the
pump is malfunctioning. Table 3 below provides
a troubleshooting checklist to help determine the
cause of operational problems.
