General Information
The “E”, “D” & “C” series wheel loaders utilize an Ergo-Power ZF transmission system. The respective Case
parts numbers and ZF model numbers are listed for the respective wheel loader models in the table below.
The transmissions were developed by Case and ZF engineers. The transmission incorporates an electronic
control module (TECM) which monitors all functions of the transmission during operation of the machine.
The TECM has the capability to detect system faults and store them in memory. The TECM allows for
smoother shifting capabilities between gears with greatly improved modulation. The improved mechanical
design of the transmission incorporates helical cut gears to reduce transmission noise and vibration. Gears
and bearings have been beefed up to handle the higher horsepower requirements of the 621 & 721. The
transmissions use paper base friction plates in the clutch packs. This is different than the previous metallic
bronze imbedded friction disc design.

TRANSMISSION
Modes of Operation
There are two modes of operation offered by the ZF transmission; Automatic Mode and Manual Mode. The
mode selector switch is found on the right hand console. The transmission is in automatic mode when the
top of the switch is depressed and in manual mode when the bottom of the switch is depressed.
AUTOSHIFT SWITCH
The indicator light on the bottom of the enable
switch will illuminate when activated
10
TRANSMISSION
If the machine speed is increasing, and the operator is not depressing the accelerator (going down a hill) the
transmission will not up shift. As the operator depresses the accelerator and the torque on the transmission
is lowered, the transmission will up shift.
It does not matter what gear you select with the transmission control lever, the transmission will not shift
higher than the gear that was programmed in “Maximum gear selection” field or lower than the gear that was
programmed in “Minimum gear selection” field of the AIC.
Transmission will not shift lower than the gear that was programmed in “Minimum gear selection” field of the
AIC.
Downshift Button
The transmission also features a down shift button, located on the joystick control lever on machines with
single lever configuration. On machines with dual lever configuration, the button is located above the loader
control levers.
DOWN-SHIFT BUTTON
Manual Mode
When the transmission is being operated in the Manual mode, the transmission will only shift down from 2nd
to 1st, but the shift lever must be in 2nd. The transmission will not shift up from 1st to 2nd if the shift lever is in
1st. With the shift lever in 2nd the downshift button, will only cycle between 1st and 2nd gear.
When the operator is in 2nd gear and pushes the down shift button the transmission will down shift to 1rst
gear. When the operator pushes the downshift button again, the transmission will up shift to 2nd gear.
The operator can also force the transmission to up shift by manually shifting the transmission up a gear.
11
TRANSMISSION
Automatic Mode
In the automatic mode, the down shift button only down shifts. The down shift button allows the operator to
downshift through the entire range of gears. Each time the button is pushed, the transmission will instantly
downshift one gear from 4th to 3rd then from 3rd to 2nd and then from 2nd to 1st.
Example: If the downshift button was used to shift from 4th to 3rd gear, the transmission will automatically
shift from 3rd down and then back up to 3rd again as needed. It will not shift back to 4th until one of the
following occurs.

The C,D, & E Series wheel loader are equipped with a new F/N/R and downshift buttons, located in the area
of the hydraulic control levers. (E Series shown above)
Operation
To control the machine with the F/N/R switch, the engine must be running, the park brake must be released
and transmission control lever in neutral. Press the momentary transmission enable rocker switch. At this
time, the transmission will respond to the F/N/R switch.
Note: If you cycle the transmission control lever out of the neutral position, the F/N/R switch will be
automatically disabled.
12
TRANSMISSION
Enable the auxiliary F/N/R switch by pushing down on the top of the Enable Switch. The indicator light on the
bottom of the enable switch will illuminate when activated. By following the correct sequence and enabling
the auxiliary F/N/R, the operator may select FORWARD-NEUTRAL-REVERSE from the LOADER
CONTROL LEVER or the AUXIALIIARY F-N-R SWITCH.
Transmission Declutch
The transmission also has a declutch feature built into it. This is turned on by activating the declutch switch,
located on the right hand console. When activated, the transmission will declutch when the brake pedal is
pressed. This allows for increased engine power for the loader.
When the brake is activated, the transmission ECM lowers clutch pressure to either the forward or reverse
(Kv, K4, or KR) clutch. It does not completely release the pressure in the clutch packs. It maintains enough
pressure in the clutch to allow for smooth modulation when the transmission reengages.
The transmission never completely disengages from the engine when the declutch option is used. When the
operator releases the brake, the transmission ECM increases clutch pressure back up to normal operating
pressures.
An adjustable declutch switch will become available 1/20/07 in order to allow adjustable engagement psi.

Transmission Design
The transmission consists of four forward speeds and three reverse speeds. The gears are in constant mesh
and all shafts and gears are pressure lubricated. The transmission is countershaft designed unit which can
be engaged and disengaged while under load by means of electrical over hydraulic actuation of multi disc
clutches. The transmission consists of 8 shafts, six of which have clutch packs assembled to them. The
other two are the input and the output shaft. In order to drive the machine, a combination of two clutch packs
must be engaged.
The transmission uses a control valve which consists of 6 solenoids and 12 spools used to control the flow
of oil into the required clutch to drive the transmission. The control valve is controlled by the Transmission
control module which bases its decision off of various inputs from sensors and switches.
The following table represents which clutch packs are locked up and which solenoid is used for each
desired speed:

General Information
The hydraulic system for the transmission is its own independent operating hydraulic system separate from
the regular hydraulic system on the machine. The transmission case serves as the hydraulic reservoir. The
majority of Case wheel loaders use Case 15W/40 engine oil in the transmission. The 521 and 621 “D“ Series
use Hy-Tran Ultra (see bulletin NWL SB 002 06 for Lubricating Oil Information). The following table lists the
fill capacities for the individual model machines.
The transmission hydraulic filter is located on the front outside cover of the transmission. It filters the oil
down to a rating of 10 micron. Oil and filter change interval is set at every 1000 hours of operation or yearly.
If the machine is new, the first oil and filter change should occur after the first 100 hours of operation
The transmission incorporates a filter bypass that operates on pressure differential. It is located in the filter
base. The bypass will also function if the oil is cold.
21
TRANSMISSION
The transmission control valve consists of 6 solenoids and 12 spools used to control the flow of oil into the
required clutch to drive the transmission. The 6 large spools are control spools, directing the flow of oil into
each clutch pack. The 6 small spools are dampening spools, used to modulate the shifting of the main
control spools, to allow for smooth shifting between gears.
NOTE: The transmissions on the 5, 6, 7, and 821C no longer use hoses to port the oil to the end of the
shafts for clutch engagement. The flow of oil on these four units is now ported through internal pipes. The
control valve sits on the rear of the transmission. The 921C still uses external hoses

TRANSMISSION
Once the transmission is shifted into neutral, the solenoids will de-energized. This allows pilot pressure to
dump to the sump. Oil that flows through orifice (B) is able to flow straight through the transmission solenoids
(Y1–Y6) and on to sump. At this time, the pressure between the orifices (B) and the transmission solenoids
will be 0 (PSI). Any transmission control spools (5) that were used previously to engage a forward or reverse
gear will shift to a closed position, not allowing any oil to the clutch packs. Oil will be not flow to the clutch
packs since pilot pressure is dumped through the solenoid. Without pilot oil the transmission control spools
will not be able to shift and allow main line pressure to the determined clutch packs. Once a gear has been
selected, the appropriate solenoids will be energized and pilot pressure will be restricted at the solenoid and
begin to shift the appropriate control spools. The shifted control spools will now allow mainline pressure its
clutches which in turn, allows the vehicle to move. Two clutches are needed to apply any gear range.

TRANSMISSION
Hydraulic Circuit
Torque Converter
Excess oil dumping over the main pressure spool is ported through the transmission and supplies the torque
converter with oil. There is a Converter Relief valve (5) before the torque converter, set at 125 to 154 PSI, to
dump off any excess oil to the sump. It is located in the transmission housing back cover. Return oil from
the converter goes through a Converter back pressure valve (7) set at 51 to 96 PSI. It is located in the
housing that bolts the transmission to the engine. The purpose of this relief valve is to keep enough
backpressure on the converter to prevent excess oil runoff. Both of these pressure readings are the
maximum pressure readings for converter in and converter out. Under normal operating circumstances, the
torque converter out pressure should be within 20 to 25 PSI of torque converter in pressure.
5 – Torque Converter Relief Valve Filter pressure switch and By-Pass: The transmission
7 – Torque Converter Back Pressure Valve includes a spool working as a differential by-pass (F). It
operates a mechanical switch (H) to inform the TECM.

32
TRANSMISSION
With this information, the transmission ECM can accurately shift the transmission and determine if any
clutches are slipping. The shifting is based on the amount of load that is placed on the machine
The TECM has the capability to find the optimal adjustment of clutch filling parameters for each individual
transmission. Clutch filling parameter calibration is done to each machine at the plant. This should also be
done at 250 and every 1000 hrs. The procedure takes around 4-5 minutes to complete.
SENSORS
Engine Speed Sensor:
• Is screwed into the rear housing of the torque converter pump housing
• Sends an input signal to the TECM so it can monitor the current engine
RPM’s to determine the load on the engine for shift points. This
information is then relayed to the information center for displaying
• Magnetic pickup
• Sensor resistance should be 945 to 1155 Ohms at 20 degrees Celsius

Limp-Home Mode:
In this mode, the transmission will go into 2nd gear forward or reverse no matter which speed is selected. If
second gear is not obtainable, the TECM selects a series of prioritized gears until an operable gear is found.
This mode is activated if there is a fault with a clutch, clutch valve or speed sensor.

Clutch Calibration
The transmission has the ability to adjust the clutch modulation between shifts, to allow for smooth shifting
between gears. This procedure should be done after the first 250 hours of operation and every 1000 hours
of operation after that.
Note:
The transmission oil temperature must also be heated above 100o C (110-120 C preferred) in the sump
before the test can be performed. If the transmission is not heated to the required temperature you will get
error message “Not Permitted. Oil Temp to Low” on the display. See next page.

Delay Power In
Delayed power is sent into the TECM from the time delay module. This keeps power to the TECM for 10
seconds after the key switch is turned off. This power is supplied at terminals 23 and 68.
Transmission Shifter
The transmission shifter lever is provided with 24 volts of power from the parking brake at terminal #2. When
the transmission lever is in neutral, a signal is sent to the controller into terminal 67. When the transmission
is shifted into forward, a 24-volt signal is sent into terminal 43 of the controller and when the transmission is
shifted into reverse, a 24-volt signal is sent into terminal 64 of the controller.
When the transmission shifter lever is placed in 1st gear, a 24-volt signal is sent into the controller terminal 63
to indicate 1st gear has been selected. In 2nd gear no signal is sent into the controller. In 3rd gear a signal is
sent into terminal 65 of the controller. In 4th gear a signal is sent into both terminals 63 and 65 of the controller.
Testing the Transmission Shifter
To test the transmission shifter with a DVM, use the following procedure:
• Disconnect the transmission shifter at connector 70 on the machine
Connect the positive and negative leads of the DVM to the appropriate test points and you should read the
following values: * If you do not get these readings, replace the transmission shifter.

Autoshift Switch
The autoshift switch is located on the right hand console and has an “A” with a gear symbol on it.
It is used to select the mode of operation for the transmission; Automatic or Semi-Automatic
(Manual). The switch also incorporates an LED in it to inform the operator when in the automatic
mode.
When operating in the manual mode with the switch off, a 24-volt signal is sent from the key
switch through the autoshift switch, out terminal 3, and into terminal 29 of the transmission
controller. When the autoshift is selected, the signal into the switch is sent out terminal 3 of the
switch, interrupting the signal from being sent to terminal 29 of the controller.

To test the Engine Speed, Turbine Speed, & Intermediate Speed Sensors:
• Disconnect the sensor from the wiring harness
• Place the positive lead of the DVM on one of the pins going to the sensor and the
negative lead of the DVM on the other pin
• Turn the DVM on to the ohms scales. You should read 1050 + 10% ohms at 20 C(68 F)
o 0
• If you do not get these readings, remove the old sensor and replace it with a new one.
TECM
Output Speed Sensor
The output speed sensor is used to monitor output shaft speed, to help determine the load on the
transmission and assist in determining the appropriate shift points. This information is then
relayed to the information center where the machine MPH is displayed. The output sensor was
designed to read Hz with a 24-volt supply (from the key switch). The sensor should read 2 kHz to
5 kHz, depending on the output speed. When a tooth moves in front of the sensor, the signal
returning, changes from high to low. The signal returns to the controller through terminal 62.
Based on how frequently this occurs, this is how the controller knows how fast the output shaft is
turning.
47
TRANSMISSION
TECM
Temperature Sensor, Torque Converter Temperature Sensor, and Filter Restriction Switch
All three are sent a signal from the TECM. The temperature sensor signal is sent out terminal 39
of the controller, the torque converter temperature sensor signal is sent out terminal 49 of the
controller, and the filter restriction switch signal is sent out terminal 17 of the controller. All three
share a common ground through terminal 46 of the controller. As the temperature changes the
signal coming back to the controller is changed. If the temperature gets too high or too low the
controller will sense the signal voltage change and the controller will send a signal to the
information center to warn the operator.
If the filter restriction switch opens, the signal is no longer sent back to the controller and it knows
that it is time to change the filter, the appropriate light is illuminated to warn the operator.

Test Results
You should see the regulated pressure fall off momentarily then jump to within the specification
limits for each gear that is engaged. If it falls off drastically in certain gear that tells you that there
is a leak somewhere in the system. To isolate where the leak is, use the chart on page 54. For
example, if the regulated pressure falls off drastically in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd forward, then the problem
exists somewhere in the KV clutch circuit because it is the only clutch that is common to all three
gears.
Secondary Test
To perform this test, use the following procedure.
• Block the machines tires and Install the steering lockout bar
• Install necessary pressure hoses, and gauges (Refer to the test port diagram for the
locations)
• Heat the oil temperature to 80o C (176o F)
• Disengage the parking brake
• Run the engine at rated engine RPM’s
• Apply the service brake and make sure the transmission is in the manual mode of
operation, shift the transmission into forward
• Shift up through all gears taking pressure readings
• Shift the transmission into reverse
• Shift up through all gears taking pressure readings
• Place the transmission in neutral and reapply the parking brake
• Fill out the pressure test form on the following page
• Perform the same test with the engine at idle.
Test Results
You should see the regulated pressure, pilot pressure, and clutch lock up pressure fall off briefly
then jump to within the specification limits for each gear that is engaged. If the pressure is lower
in certain gears and remains consistent in other gears, there is a leak somewhere in that system.
To isolate where the leak is, use the chart on page 54. For example, if the pressures fall off in 1st,
2nd, and 3rd forward, then the problem exists somewhere in the KV clutch circuit because it is the
only clutch that is common to all three gears.
51
TRANSMISSION
Test Results
The pressure readings must be within the specification limits or it is an indicator of a leak in the
system. The leak may exist anywhere in the torque converter circuit. The transmission lube
pressure reading would also be low if there was a leak in the torque converter hydraulic circuit. If
the pressure reading exceeds the maximum values, it could be an indicator that either the bypass
or the relief valves are sticking. There is no adjustment for setting the converter in and out
pressure. If the pressure readings are not within specification limits, you must replace the
springs and valves.
If the results are not with in specification, then there is excess leakage somewhere in the system
and it must be repaired.

NOTE: Do not take readings for the shaded boxes. Oil temperature must be 80o C (176o F)
minimum.
Check the system pressure readings with the specifications listed in the service manual. If there
are discrepancies, diagnose where problem exists and repair the system malfunction. There is
no adjustment for the regulated (main) or pilot pressure settings. If they are not with in

The calibration Sub Code will inform you why the process was aborted. For more information on
why and how this occurs, refer to the Information Center section of this manual.
Note: The transmission oil temperature must also be heated above 100o C (110 -120 C preferred) in the
sump before the test can be performed. If the transmission is not heated to the required
temperature you will get 2 00 05 in the display. The 05 sub code is telling you that the
transmission oil is not up to temperature. You must use the stall test procedure to raise the oil
temperature above 100o C.
When the calibration procedure is completed, you will see 2 07 00 in the display.

Diagnostics Codes
The information center on the 21 “C & D” series wheel loaders has built -in diagnostic features.
The diagnostics will help service technicians diagnose and repair system malfunctions with
greater ease and speed.
Fault codes in the “C & D” series wheel loaders consist of a five-digit number. Each number has
been assigned a specific fault through the software programming of the information center. The
five-digit code has a specific definition associated with it.
1st Digit
The first digit from the left will show machine location:
2nd Digit
The second digit from the left shows the type of fault:
3rd 4th & 5th Digits
The 3rd, 4th, and 5th digits, displayed from the left, represent the actual pressure, temperature, %
of full or volts reading that the information center is measuring.
When a fault is recorded in memory, the display center will also show an open book with a
wrench in the middle. This will be shown on the display for 10 minutes. After ten minutes, the
wrench symbol disappears until another fault is logged into the memory of the controller.
Because the wrench symbol disappears does not mean that the error is gone. It is still stored in
the memory of the controller. The symbol will reappear for ten minutes again if another fault is
detected by the information center. This cycle will repeat every time another error code is
logged. The information center will continue to log duplicate codes once every hour.
The information center has the ability to store ten faults in memory. If an eleventh fault is
detected, the last fault stored in memory will be erased and the new one will be logged at the
beginning of the fault stack.

Tire Calibration
If a dealer or customer changes the tire sizes, the new tire calibration will have to be
changed to match the information center and transmission ECM to the new tires. If the tire code
is not changed, then the speedometer reading will not be accurate. The operator does not have
access to be able to change the tire calibration on the machines since this is an advanced
programming function. This feature was made an advanced programming function because most
customers do not change tire sizes frequently by themselves.
To select the appropriate code, refer to the table below for the given tire size.
