 Auxiliary System Hydraulic Settings
 Auxiliary Pump – Tandem Gear – Shaft End Pump:
 Shaft End Pump of Tandem Gear Pump feeds only the 2 bank
directional control valve which supplies oil to the main boom lift
and grab open/close functions.
 Connect a 3,000 psi pressure gauge to the hydraulic test port at
2 bank valve inlet.

A. Aux Pump
B. Test Port

 Main Relief setting for this circuit is controlled by the relief valve
in the inlet of the 2 bank valve.
 Valve Inlet Main Relief Setting = 2,250 psi
 To set main relief, begin by backing out the main relief
adjustment screw to the minimum pressure setting (back relief
adjustment screw out).
 Adjust the grab close function port relief to the maximum
pressure setting (turn port relief adjustment screw in).
 With engine at idle rpm and grab close function fully activated,
adjust main relief pressure setting to 2,250 psi.
 Lock in main relief pressure setting with lock nut on main relief
adjustment screw.
 A. 2 Bank Valve
B. Port Relief Setting
C. Main Relief Setting

 Individual port reliefs are set at the factory to the values below
and should be reset to the appropriate port relief settings after
any repairs are made to the 2 bank valve:
 Main Boom – Up………..2,000 psi - port relief
 Main Boom – Down…….1,000 psi - port relief
 Grab – Open…………….1,000 psi - port relief
 Grab – Close…………….1,500 psi - port relief
 All relief settings should be performed by a per turn method of
the relief set screw for the 2 bank valve.
 First, adjust the relief screw all the way to minimum pressure
setting (back relief adjustment screw out). At minimum relief
screw setting, port relief is 1,000 psi.
 Turn the relief screw in the appropriate number of turns in to
obtain the appropriate port relief setting. Each full turn of the
relief set screw corresponds to a 580 psi (40 bar) change in
relief pressure setting.
 Lock in port relief pressure settings with lock nut on port relief
adjustment screw.

 Auxiliary Pump – Tandem Gear – Cover End Pump:

 Cover End Pump of Tandem Gear Pump feeds initially to an
adjustable main relief valve then to a priority valve. The control
 flow from the priority valve supplies the steering valves with oil
with priority over the remaining functions in the circuit. The
excess flow from the priority valve is supplied to the 3 bank
directional control valve which supplies oil to the swing, flex
boom, and piler lift functions.
 Connect a 3,000 psi pressure gauge to the hydraulic test port at
the adjustable main relief valve.

A. Main Relief
B. Pressure Test

 Main Relief setting for this circuit is controlled by the adjustable

relief valve at the outlet of the pump.
 Valve Inlet Main Relief Setting = 2,500 psi
 To set main relief, begin by backing out the main relief
adjustment screw to the minimum pressure setting (back relief
adjustment screw out).
 Adjust the piler lift function port relief on the 3 bank valve to the
maximum pressure setting (turn port relief adjustment screw
in).
 With engine at idle rpm and piler lift function fully activated,
adjust main relief pressure setting to 2,500 psi.
 Lock in main relief pressure setting with lock nut on main relief
adjustment screw.
 Priority valve control flow pressure is regulated by a relief valve
in the priority valve.
 With engine at idle rpm and steering cylinder bottomed out at
max steer position (left or right), confirm priority control flow
relief is set at 2,000 psi. Adjust if needed.
 A. Priority Valve

 Individual port reliefs are set at the factory to the values below
and should be reset to the appropriate port relief settings after
any repairs are made to the 3 bank valve:
 Swing- Left……………….2,250 psi – port relief
 Swing- Right………….….2,250 psi – port relief
 Flex Boom – Up…….…...2,000 psi - port relief
 Flex Boom – Down……...1,000 psi - port relief
 Piler Lift – Up…………….1,000 psi - port relief
 Piler Lift - Down………….1,500 psi - port relief
 All relief settings should be performed with pressure gauge on
system adjustable main relief pressure test port and by
bottoming out each function to confirm port relief pressure
setting.
 First, adjust all of the port relief screws all the way out to
minimum pressure setting.
 With engine at idle rpm and an individual 3 bank valve function
fully activated, turn the relief screw in to obtain the appropriate
port relief setting. Each full turn of the relief set screw
corresponds to a 435 psi (30 bar) change in relief pressure
setting.
 Lock in port relief pressure settings with lock nut on port relief
adjustment screw.

NOTE: The ground speed of the loader will change according to the
foot pressure applied by the operator. The more foot pressure, the
higher the speed. When foot pressure is relieved from the pedal, the
loader will stop as a result of the dynamic braking effect. Do not
attempt to control speed with the engine throttle.

 STARTING THE LOADER
Before each start, sound the horn to warn people near the loader that
machine will be activated. The parking brake must be engaged to start
the loader. Turn the ignition key to the on position and move engine
hand throttle to 1/3 position. Push the start button to start the engine –
do not hold down the start button for more than ten seconds.
