Bombardier SW48 Hydrostatic issue

Hi All, I just bought a 2002 SW48Hy that doesn't run - owner said he thinks it is locked up but does t know why - big company and he just sells the broken stuff.

Hydrostatics are new to me and I haven't torn into it yet because I'd like to find out the best way to figure out wha is going on.

Perkins 1004-40t turbo, engine oil fine but coolant very low.

Looks like it has been sitting for a few years

Can a seized hydraulic pump lock up the engine? If so what do I check for first.

Ill look into the engine and hydraulics in a couple of days - see if I can get power to the starter to see whats going on.

Any help is appreciated.

Louie
