Joystick (front switch)
Disable the hydraulic modulation control, if equipped. Press the front switch on the right joystick in order to deactivate hydraulic modulation.
The air conditioning should be turned off for the following test.
Stall one of the following circuits on the machine in order to obtain a pressure reading:
Blade/Dozer Circuit
Stabilizer CircuitNote: These circuits are used because there are no line relief valves in these circuits.
Check the pressure at the main relief valve pressure tap. Note: Refer to Table 2 in this manual for the correct pressure.
If the main relief valve pressure is not correct, refer to the "Adjustment Procedure". Adjustment Procedure
Personal injury or death can result from sudden machine movement.Sudden movement of the machine can cause injury to persons on or near the machine.To prevent injury or death, make sure that the area around the machine is clear of personnel and obstructions before operating the machine.
Loosen locknut (2) on main relief valve (7).
To avoid damage to the hydraulic components, do not turn the main relief valve adjustment screw into the stop.
Turn adjustment screw (1) main relief valve (7) clockwise in order to increase the pressure. Turn adjustment screw (1) main relief valve (7) counterclockwise in order to decrease the pressure. Note: A 1/4 turn of the adjustment screw will equal approximately 4000 kPa (580 psi).
Check the pressure at the main relief valve pressure tap. Note: Refer to Table 2 in this manual for the correct pressure.Note: Always make the final pressure adjustments on the pressure rise.
Tighten locknut (2) on main relief valve (7) to the specified torque.
Adjust load sensing signal limiter valve (8) to the correct pressure setting. Note: Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Relief Valve (Signal Limiter) - Test and Adjust" in this manual for the adjustment procedure.Worksheet
