(41) Line from main control valve (port "L") Note: The return hydraulic system consists of various low flow drains as well as high flow return circuits. The low flow drains are typically returned directly to hydraulic oil tank (28). The higher flow return lines are typically filtered before returning to hydraulic oil tank (28).Return filter (18) receives drain oil flow from components through lines (37, 38, 39, 40 and 41). Oil flows through return filter (18) and enters directly into hydraulic oil tank (28).The oil drains directly to hydraulic oil tank (28) from the following components:
Joystick steering valve (6)
Steering valve (7)
Quick coupler control valve (8)
VA boom lowering control valve (9)
Boom lowering control valve (10)
Stick lowering control valve (11)
Standard drift reduction valve (12)
Drift reduction valve (13)
Brake valve (29)
Brake safety valve (30)
Pilot manifold (31)
Operator controls (32, 33, 34 and 35)
Smart boom control valve (36)The drain oil flow from blade shutoff valve (if equipped) (1) and stabilizer shutoff valve (if equipped) (3) combine with the case drain oil from travel motor (2) and flow to swivel (4). The return oil flow from swivel (4) flows directly to hydraulic tank (28).Case drain oil flow from fan pump (24) and main pump (22) combine and flow to hydraulic oil tank (28) through an internal filter screen.Case drain oil flow from swing pump (21) flows to hydraulic oil tank (28) through an internal filter screen.Case drain oil from fan motor (27) flows to hydraulic oil tank (28) through an internal filter screen.The oil delivery from main pump (22) enters main control valve (15). After the implement oil is sent to the various circuits, the return oil flows back into main control valve (15).

(15) Main control valve
(26) Hydraulic oil cooler
(42) Low-pressure return check valve
(43) Bypass check valve
(44) To return filter Return oil inside main control valve (15) acts against two return check valves. Low-pressure return check valve (42) maintains a constant back pressure. The oil flow through the low-pressure return check valve flows to oil cooler (26). Bypass check valve (43) protects the oil cooler from too high of pressure.
