Close-up of the equipment's data plate, showing "Custom Products of Litchfield, INC," serial number, and OSHA specifications.

Locate the data plate on the ROPS/chassis to confirm the model. This unit is a Blade-Mor 707A manufactured by Custom Products of Litchfield, Inc. Note the serial number (CP399-6-3) for accurate hydraulic parts sourcing.

Close-up on the pump area showing dark, wet hydraulic fluid residue, indicating an active leak or seep being diagnosed.

Fluid pooling on the valve block indicates a failure at the fitting or O-ring rather than the hose body. Pressurized leaks in this manifold area require immediate cleaning to isolate the exact port.

High-density hose routing on the 707A makes cross-connection likely. Document all port locations and hose paths before removal to ensure correct blade lift and steering function during reassembly.

Heavy grease and debris buildup on cylinders can trap heat and accelerate seal degradation. External surfaces must be degreased and inspected for housing cracks before servicing internal components.

General layout of the front lift and steering cylinders. Drift in the blade position typically suggests internal piston bypass within these specific hydraulic units.

Riteway Repair: Technical Diagnostics and Component Restoration We provide expert teardown analysis and precision rebuilding for high-pressure hydraulic systems, identifying the root causes of machinery failure to ensure long-term operational reliability.

Close-up of a high-pressure hydraulic pump showing the mounting flange and drive shaft.

This axial piston pump exhibited power loss and overheating. Teardown revealed worn internal rotating groups and damaged housing surfaces. We performed a full restoration to recover volumetric efficiency; technicians should refer to OEM exploded view diagrams for specific assembly torque and alignment specs.

Close-up of a heavily grease-caked hydraulic cylinder and rusty support chain on a green Blade-Mor road grader.

Sluggish cylinder response and "chattering" led to this inspection. We found heavy grease and particulate contamination causing internal bypass. To prevent recurring seal failure, operators should consult ISO 4406 fluid cleanliness standards and implement stricter filtration intervals.

Extremely close-up view of a hydraulic piston or valve showing surface finish.

This unit could not maintain constant PSI, resulting in system "hunting." Our analysis identified scored piston heads and bore wear, creating internal fluid bypass. For help identifying similar issues, search for hydraulic pump cavitation damage tutorials to catch surface pitting before total failure.

Close-up of a clean metal hydraulic pump component (likely a swash plate or valve plate) with precisely machined oil ports.

Excessive noise and vibration (hydraulic hammer) indicated an interface failure. We found surface galling on the valve plate that prevented a consistent hydraulic seal. For resurfacing tolerances and lapping procedures, reference the Hydraulic Maintenance Technology handbook.

Internal components of a hydraulic relief valve laid out: plug, spring, and ball.

Total system pressure loss was traced to the pilot logic circuit. We identified weakened relief springs and debris in the check ball seats. When troubleshooting erratic pressure, use standard hydraulic schematic symbols to trace and test the pilot-operated relief and bypass paths.
