How to Change the Transmission Fluid in your Heavy-Duty Transmissions In this post, you will learn how to change the transmission fluid (HT-1000) in Parker's HTG hydrostatic transmission in your mower. The HT-1000 Service Kit includes all the replacement parts needed for a smooth fluid change. The transmission fluid in your mower should be changed at regular intervals to maintain the life of the mower. The HT-1000 transmission fluid only needs to be changed once every 1000 hours, as opposed to as early as 500 hours with other brands. Our Hydrostatic Transmission Fluid HT-1000™ is a synthetic transmission oil engineered to provide maximum durability and long life

New Simplified Directional Control Valves for Hazardous Environments Industries operating in hazardous environments such as the oil and gas industry inherently depend on reliable products operating in critical settings, while requiring the need to maintain safety and strict compliance. Listening to the voice of the customer is crucial in the design of simple solutions to mitigate the trifecta related to the complexity of maintaining multiple part numbers, operating in multiple environments, all while maintaining multiple certifications. One such example comes from the team at Parker Hydraulic Valve Division. Over the years, the team’s design engineers have worked closely with these

Electro-Hydraulic System is the Ideal Solution for Power Steering in Buses Though gas-powered, internal combustion engine driven vehicles have been the norm in the automotive industry for over 100 years, electrification is growing. The traditional engine design was efficient, reliable, and easy to use, but gasoline powered vehicles are loud, dirty, and harmful to the environment. Given these drawbacks, electric vehicles have started to gain market share in commercial and personal markets. Public transportation is moving toward electrification at a faster pace than other markets, spurred by the deployment of electric vehicles in China. Electrification brings new challenges When an

How Maintenance Strategies Can Affect the Lifespan of Power Plant Parts There's more than one way to maintain an asset. Power plant and maintenance managers implement various strategies to prepare for and respond to maintenance issues. While there isn't just one correct way to maintain your machines, each solution offers its advantages and disadvantages. Selecting your power plant system's optimum maintenance strategy can be the difference between significant downtime and smooth operation to prevent unplanned outages. Note that the best approach for some machines will be different than others. Here are the three most popular and effective strategies that power

6 Things You Never Knew About Heavy Duty Hydrostatic Piston Pumps and Motors Gold Cup Heavy-Duty Pumps and Motors have long been respected in the industry for technical excellence in hydrostatic transmission applications in marine, drilling, and shredding applications, among others. You are also probably aware that the heavy-duty Gold Cup series of pumps and motors represent Parker's and Denison's combined expertise in hydrostatic transmission applications. The tried and true design incorporates features such as, integral servo and replenishing pump, hot oil shuttle, and a unique servo control system; all of which combine to provide a rugged self-contained package that can withstand the harshest of conditions
