This course is designed to give a basic understanding of the operation and overhaul of Eaton transmissions.
During the classroom portion, technicians will be introduced to the theory of operation and an in-depth review of the shift control system. Technicians will be instructed on failure analysis techniques specific to this transmission, which are essential in determining the root cause of failures necessary to establish warranty viability.
This section will increase technicians understanding of basic transmission operation, gear life theory, and product lubrication requirements, while also addressing product specific failure modes. Maintenance and basic troubleshooting techniques will be discussed as well.
Upon completion of the classroom presentation, the overhaul portion will continue into a hands-on tear down and reassembly of an Eaton transmission using the correct tools and techniques.
This course is designed to give a basic understanding of the operation and service of Eaton AutoShift®, UltraShift®, and UltraShift Plus® transmissions. This includes all automated transmissions.
During the classroom portion, technicians will be introduced to identification of both the product and its components, theory of operation, and preventative maintenance. Added focus will be placed on service and troubleshooting of the product including: training on the usage of electronic diagnostic tools, such as ServiceRanger 4, and other commonly available diagnostic tools. This course will successfully increase the technicians understanding of electronic controls and PC-based diagnostics while helping them become comfortable servicing Eaton automated transmissions.
Upon completion of the classroom presentations, the class will continue into a multi-part practical session incorporating real-life application of diagnostic, troubleshooting, and service procedures using the correct tools and techniques.
