KIT-GASKET 1134609 - Caterpillar

Introduction
The boom hydraulic circuit contains a regeneration circuit. This regeneration circuit allows the return oil from the head end of the boom cylinders to be supplied to the rod end of the boom cylinders during the BOOM DOWN operation. The proportional reducing valve (PRV) for the boom regeneration valve controls the amount of pilot pressure from the joystick to the boom down regeneration valve. The PRV for the boom regeneration valve is controlled by the machine ECM.Preliminary Test

Connect a 3447 kPa (500 psi) pressure sensor to the pressure tap for the boom regeneration valve. The pressure tap for the boom regeneration valve is located below the main control valve. The pressure tap can be accessed through panel (3). Calibration Procedure
Start the engine.
Increase the hydraulic oil temperature to 55° 5°C (131° 9°F).
Place the hydraulic activation lever in the UNLOCK position.
Place the machine implements on the ground at maximum reach.
Enter the service mode. Input the password "9992".

Select "Boom Down Regen Valve" from the "Calibrations" menu.
Press the OK key in order to start the calibration. The engine RPM will automatically drop to the equivalence of engine speed dial 1.
Confirm the notes on the monitor display. Set up the test conditions in accordance with the instructions. Press the OK key.
Move the joystick for BOOM DOWN to the full down position and hold the joystick in this position.

Use the arrows to adjust the pressure until the pressure reading for the boom regeneration valve is at 500 50 kPa (73 7 psi). Press the OK key.
Move the joystick for BOOM DOWN to the NEUTRAL position.
Confirm notes on the monitor display. Set up the test conditions in accordance with the instructions. Press the OK key.
Move the joystick for BOOM DOWN to the full down position and hold the joystick in this position.
