The control system is made up of hydraulic andelectrical circuits. The load sense circuit routes thehighest work port pressure to the hydraulic pumpregulator. A number of sensors monitor engine speed,switch panel 2 functions and pilot controller movement.This data is sent to the system controller in the form ofelectrical sensing signals. The system controller sendsa control signal to engine speed control actuator, pumpregulator displacement solenoid, swing brake releasesolenoid, travel alarm, power boost solenoid, andpropel motor speed change solenoid. The result isoptimum matching of hydraulic function speed andengine power level.
The system controller controls engine speed, enginerpm pulldown, and pump displacement. When rpmpulldown reaches the set point, the system controllersends a control signal to the pump regulator to reducethe load sense differential pressure that reduces thepump displacement.
The system controller also has on board diagnostics tomonitor wiring harness, connections, solenoids andsensors. Indicator lights on the system controller signalpossible problems. A test switch on the systemcontroller changes controller modes to check or adjustmodes.

Switch panel 2 (Y) contains operator controls forengine power modes, auto-idle, swing brake release,work modes and propel speeds.
The operator may select four different power modes(engine speeds): “P” max. power (H), “E” economy(G), “L” light duty (X) or “I” low idle (W). Engine speedincrease (E) or decrease (F) switches can also bepushed which changes engine speed approximately 80rpm per push. If increase or decrease switch is helddown, engine speed will change at a rate ofapproximately 275 rpm per second. Indicator lights willchange as rpm moves from one power mode toanother.
Auto-idle (I) function reduces engine speedapproximately four seconds after pilot controllers arereturned to neutral. Operating any dig or propelfunction overrides auto-idle function and the enginereturns to the preselected power mode (engine speed).Auto-idle speed is same as “L” (light duty) powermode. If engine speed is at “I” (low idle) power mode,auto-idle will not increase speed to “L.” When auto-idleis activated, the auto-idle indicator will come ON.Power mode indicator “P” or “E” will stay lit even whenengine is running at auto-idle speed.
Swing brake release (J) function allows the operator torelease the swing brake electronically. The swingbrake will remain released as long as circuit isactivated. The indicator light will be ON indicatingswing brake is released. When engine is stopped, thesystem controller will automatically default the functionto normal swing brake mode.
The operator can select four different work modes:“PR” precision (K), “EC” economy (R), “G” general (S),or “HD” heavy duty (T). The work mode select switchalso controls engine power modes and load sensedifferential pressure to control percent of pump flowavailable.
In “PR” (precision) work mode pump supply is 65% ofmaximum flow and “L” (light duty) power mode is
automatically activated. The operator can override thepreset power mode by pushing any of the other powermodes switches, but pump supply will remain at 65%.
In “EC“ (economy) work mode, pump supply is 80% ofmaximum flow. “E” (economy) power mode isautomatically activated.
In “G” (general) work mode, pump supply is 80% ofmaximum flow. “P” (max. power) power mode isautomatically activated and engine speed is 1950 rpm.
In “HD” (heavy duty) work mode, pump supply is atmaximum flow (100%). Load sensing differential willnot be electronically adjusted. “P” (max. power) powermode is automatically activated and engine speed is2150 rpm.
When machine is started, default for power mode is “L”(light duty), default for work mode is “PR” (precision).(Serial No. 544418—)—A work mode memory circuitis included. When circuit is connected, the systemcontroller will remember the work mode setting anddefault to that setting when machine is started. Thewiring leads (black and white) to connect circuit arelocated in the wiring harness in the right hand consolebelow switch panel 2. To connect, remove the whitetwo pin connector and replace with weather tightconnectors and a jumper wire.
When in “HD” (heavy duty) work mode, the operatormay select three different propel speeds by pushingthe propel speed decrease (L) or increase switch (M).
When in high speed propel, the propel motors willautomatically swash, controlled by system operatingpressure. Pump flow to propel motors is dependentupon work mode selected.
When in medium speed propel, the propel motors arefixed to maximum displacement. Pump flow isdependent upon work mode selected.

When in low speed propel, the propel motors are fixedto maximum displacement. Pump flow is 75% ofmaximum. Engine speed is not affected. When in lowspeed propel and propel is actuated, “PR” (precision)
work mode is automatically actuated. When propelpilot controller is returned to neutral, machine willautomatically return to whatever work mode wasselected.

The hydraulic system (Z) contains two separatecircuits. The pilot circuit is the control circuit for themain hydraulic circuit.
The main hydraulic circuit is a closed center, loadsensing system. Two variable displacement axialpiston pumps (M) produce supply oil (U) for the circuit.Pump displacement is controlled electronically by thesystem controller that provides constant torque controland constant speed sensing. Supply oil flows from thepumps to the main control valves (D).
The main control valves are pressure and flowcompensated. They route the highest load sense
pressure (V) to the pump regulator so the pump willsupply only the amount of oil required by a function orcombination of functions.
Load sensing improves fuel economy and reducesheat build-up because horsepower is not wasted onexcessive pump flow that is not being used.
From the control valves, supply oil is routed to thecylinders or motors. The swing motor (E) isbidirectional, fixed displacement, axial piston,swashplate design. The propel motors (I) are variabledisplacement and three propel speeds are available.

The hydraulic system (27) contains two separatecircuits. The pilot circuit is the control circuit for themain hydraulic circuit.
The main hydraulic circuit is a closed center, loadsensing system. Two variable displacement axialpiston pumps (14) produce supply oil (22) for thecircuit.

Control System Operation
Engine Speed Control Circuit
The control system allows the operator to chooseengine speed to match operating conditions andoperate engine as efficiently as possible.
System controller does not affect starting. The systemcontroller recognizes when the engine starts from theengine speed sensor and energizes the speed controlactuator for “L” (light duty) power mode setting. Lightduty power mode is maintained until machine operatorselects a different power mode, work mode, orchanges engine speed using speed increase or speeddecrease switches.
Exact engine speed is required by the systemcontroller for set engine speed and rpm pulldownregulation. A engine speed sensor (magnetic pickup)installed in the flywheel housing counts the flywheelteeth as the flywheel rotates.
The system controller sends a control signal (pulsewidth modulated current) to the engine speed controlactuator solenoid. The solenoid regulates the amountof pilot oil routed to the actuator that controls itsstroke. As the actuator moves, it controls the fuelinjection pump lever and engine speed. Engineinjection pump linkage must be adjusted properly toallow for full travel from slow to fast idle.
Engine Speed Sensing Circuit
The engine speed sensing circuit uses the enginespeed sensor (magnetic pickup) to sense actualengine speed and send a sensing signal to the systemcontroller. The controller calculates required pump
drive torque and sends a control signal to the pumpregulator that is also sensing load sense pressure(highest work port pressure). Pump flow rate iscontrolled to keep required pump drive torque at orbelow the engine torque level produced at maximumhorsepower.
If hydraulic functions are being operated, the pumpswash angle is allowed to increase until pump drivetorque equals the engine torque level at maximumhorsepower. Pump drive torque is directly proportionalto system pressure.
If engine power (rpm) is decreased, hydraulic pumpdrive torque may exceed the engine output torquecausing engine to stall. To prevent this, pump swashangle is adjusted to reduce pump drive torque.
Load Sense Circuit
The load sense circuit is used to bring the pump intostroke when a function is activated. Pump supplypressure is always higher than the highest load sensepressure. When all pilot controllers are in neutral, loadsense pressure is equal to reservoir pressure andpump outlet pressure is approximately 3447 kPa (34bar) (500 psi). When a function is first moveddifferential pressure is increased and pumpdisplacement is proportionally increased.
The engine speed sensor (magnetic pickup) tells thesystem controller when all available enginehorsepower is being used. As the load (pressure)increases the controller sends a signal to the pumpdisplacement solenoid to destroke the pump to preventengine overload.

Pilot oil flows from the pilot pump through the pilot filter(B) to the pressure control manifold (H) on machines(Serial No. —556935), or from the pilot filter (B) to theboom, swing, and arm control valve (G) on machines(Serial No. 556936—). The pressure control manifoldor boom, swing, and arm control valve manifoldcontains the pilot pressure regulating valve. The pilotpressure regulating valve is shim adjustable. Pilot oil isused for power boost.
Pilot oil, from the pressure control manifold or controlvalve manifold, flows to the dual solenoid block (J) andto the pilot shut-off valve (C). The shut-off valve blockspilot oil from the left and right pilot controllers (D andE) and propel pilot controller when in the OFF position.With the shut-off valve ON, pilot oil flows to the pilotcontrollers.
The pilot controllers route oil to the pilot caps of themain hydraulic control valve (G) on machines (SerialNo. —556935) or to the boom, swing, and arm controlvalves (G) and to the propel and bucket control valve(H) on machines (Serial No. 556936—) to shift thespools. Return oil from the actuated spools flowsthrough the pilot controllers and shut-off valve to thereservoir (L).
The engine speed control actuator (K) receives pilot oiland contains a solenoid which is controlled by thesystem controller. Engine speed is controlled by pilotoil in the engine speed control actuator.
The dual solenoid block contains solenoids foroperation of propel speed change and one for swingbrake release. A manual override valve is also located
in the solenoid block. Opening the manual overridevalve allows the engine to run at “P” power mode (fastidle) and pump displacement will be approximately65%.
Return oil from all pilot functions is routed through thereturn filter in the reservoir.
(Serial No. 546277—)The swing stop cushion valve is fasten to the top ofswing motor (I). The Pst port line is connected, alongwith the swing brake release switch, to a tee fitting inthe S1 port of dig pilot check valve block (F). The Pzulport line is connected to a tee at the P port of dualsolenoid valve block (J). When swing is actuated, thepilot oil pressure signal is also sent from the S1 port toPst port to shift the pilot pressure spool in cushionvalve. When spool is shifted, pilot oil from the P portflows to the Pzul port to “charge” the cushion valvespool. (See Swing Stop Cushion Valve Operationin thisgroup.)
(Serial No. 550240—)An orifice is added to the return line of the enginespeed control actuator. The addition of the orificeimproves the stability of engine speed control actuator,reduces vibration of engine speed control linkage, andeliminates engine surging. The orifice is “captured” inthe connection of return hose end fitting to the teefitting at the top of main pump regulator.
(Serial No. 556936—)The main hydraulic control valve is replaced with aboom, swing, and arm control valve and a propel andbucket control valve.

The pilot filter (L) removes contaminants from the pilotsystem oil. The filter housing contains a relief valve (H)and a filter bypass switch (B). The filter bypass switchis not used in this application.
Under normal operation, flow from the pilot pumpenters the inlet (A), flows through the filter element (F)and out the outlet (G).
As the filter becomes plugged, or when the hydraulicoil is very cold, the pressure differential between theinlet and outlet increases. Inlet pressure is sensed onone side of the valve (H) which opens against springforce (I) and outlet pressure. The pilot pump flow thenbypasses the filter. Extended operation in the bypassmode will cause damage to hydraulic system.

The engine speed control actuator (R) controls themovement of the engine speed control linkage tocontrol engine speed.
The actuator is controlled by the solenoid (K) whichreceives a signal form the system controller.
The solenoid (K) moves the solenoid pin (J). Theposition of solenoid pin (J) controls the position of thepin (I). This regulates pilot oil which controls theactuator stroke or how far the piston rod (A) moves.Piston rod (A) moves the linkage to the injection pump.
When the engine speed control actuator is notactuated, spring force (H) holds the pin open to allowoil to go to return (Q).
(Serial No. 550240—)An orifice is added to the return line to reservoir (O) ofthe engine speed control actuator. The addition of theorifice improves the stability of engine speed controlactuator, reduces vibration of engine speed controllinkage, and eliminates engine surging.

When the actuator is in fast idle position (R), thesystem controller energizes the solenoid (K). Thesolenoid pin (J) moves out (left) to move pin (I). Thisallows pilot pump oil (P) to fill piston cavity (G).
When pressure builds, piston (G) moves piston (F).This moves piston rod (A) out against the bellcrankroller bearing which regulates how far the injectionpump lever moves for fast idle.
To maintain fast idle speed and to compensate forleakage, the solenoid (K) is constantly regulating theposition of pin (I). This is accomplished by the systemcontroller. The system controller monitors enginespeed and sends a signal to the solenoid (K). Thesolenoid pin (J) positions pin (I) to regulate the amountof pilot oil entering the actuator to maintain a constantengine speed.

If certain electrical system components malfunction,the operator can turn the manual override knob on thedual solenoid valve (located between the control valveand hydraulic reservoir) ON. This allows the machineto obtain fast idle and pump at about 65% flow forcontinued operation until repairs can be made.
Pilot oil (N) enters the actuator between piston (G) and(F). Pressure builds to the left and moves piston (F)which moves piston rod (A). This moves the fuelinjection lever to fast idle position. Injection pumplinkage travel is limited by a screw on the linkage.

To meter a function, the lever (E) is moved slightly.This moves the plunger (D) and spring guide (C)against the balance spring (G) which moves the spool(B) down. The spool blocks the reservoir passage (I)and opens the passage from the pilot pump (K) tocontrol valve (J).
Pilot oil (L) also acts on piston (A) in the spool, movingthe spool up against the balance spring which closes
the passage to the control valve. This maintainspressure in the control valve passage according to theforce on the balance spring by the plunger. As thelever is moved further, the plunger applies more forceto the balance spring and the control valve passageagain increases in pressure to balance the spool.

The dig pilot check valve (I) is located on the mainframe behind the right rear corner of cab. Access tothe valve is through the left service door behind cab.
The main function of check valve is to monitor pilotpressure in the dig function pilot circuit and send aelectrical signal to the system controller when any digfunction and swing function is actuated.
Pilot oil from the controllers enters the block throughports E1—L2 depending on the function being used.The pressure in the circuit forces the check ball (D) offits seat allowing pressure to reach the auto idle switch
(E) or swing brake release switch (A). An orifice (F) inthe passage to auto idle switch allows oil to bleed outof the circuit when the controllers are returned toneutral. In neutral all the ports are connected to return.
(Serial No. 546277—)The Pst port line (G) from the swing stop cushionvalve on swing motor is connected, along with theswing brake release switch (A), to a tee fitting in theS1 port of dig pilot check valve (I). When swingfunction is actuated, pilot oil pressure is sent to thecushion valve and a electrical signal to the systemcontroller.

The dual solenoid block (N) contains the propel speedchange solenoid (A), swing brake release solenoid (B),system controller manual override valve (C) and pilotpressure reducing valve (D).
(Serial No. 538539—)For the system controller manual override valve (C), adetent was added and the style of knob was changed.
Pilot oil from the pilot filter (J) is routed to a commonpassage between both solenoids (A and B) andoverride valve (C). When a solenoid is actuated(shown), pilot oil is routed to propel motor (H) or toswing brake (G) or to both.
When system controller manual override valve isactuated, pilot oil is routed to engine speed control
actuator. The actuator increases engine speed to fastidle. Pilot oil is also routed to the pressure reducingvalve (D). The pressure reducing valve reduces pilotoil and routes the reduced pilot oil to the pumpregulator (E). The reduced pilot oil regulates pump flowto approximately 60—70% of maximum flow. If pilot oilwas not reduced, full pilot pressure would destroke thepumps to near zero flow. If pumps were run atmaximum stroke the engine would stall because therewould be more hydraulic horsepower demand thanavailable engine horsepower.
(Serial No. 556936—)The dual solenoid block is now located on the firewallnext to the cold weather start aid.

(Serial No. 556936—)The swing brake release solenoid is located in the dualsolenoid valve block and is the solenoid closest to theengine firewall.
During normal operation, the swing brake releasesolenoid is activated every time the swing pilot
controller is moved. A signal from the swing brakerelease switch to the system controller energizes theswing brake release solenoid to disengage the brake.The operator can choose to release the swing brakeall the time by pressing the swing brake release buttonon switch panel 2. The controller sends a signal toenergize a relay which energizes the coil. When thesolenoid is in neutral (G) pilot oil (I) from the pilotpump (F) is blocked from going to the swing brake (E).The line to the swing brake is open to reservoir (D).

The rotating group consist of a cylinder block and ninepistons (B) splined to the output shaft (F). Each pistonis fitted through a ball joint to a slipper (C). Theslippers slide on the incline of the swashplate (D) asthe rotating group turns. A retainer holds the slipperson the swashplate and the retainer itself is heldagainst the slippers by a load spring (A).
Oil from the control valve to the pistons is routed to themotor end cover and through a valve plate (I). Thevalve plate is prevented from turning by a dowel pin.
The pistons in one half of the rotating group, from thehighest point to the lowest, are being acted on bysupply oil from the control valve. For the pistons to bemoved out of their bore by the oil, they must movedown and around the incline of the swashplate. Thiscauses the cylinder block and output shaft to rotate.
The pistons in the other half of the cylinder block mustmove back into their bores as their slippers travel backup the incline of the swashplate. As these pistonsmove in, return oil flows from the cylinder block backto the control valve.
Pressure oil flows through the center of each piston tothe ball joint and to the face of the slipper forlubrication. Motor components operate in oil containedby the housing and excess oil flows through a returnline from the housing back to the reservoir.
(Serial No. 546277—)The swing stop cushion valve is fasten to the top ofswing motor (L). The Pst port line is connected, alongwith the swing brake release switch, to a tee fitting atthe S1 port of the dig pilot check valve. The Pzul portline is connected to a tee at the P port of the dualsolenoid valve.
The function of swing stop cushion valve is to releasethe pressure build up in the swing motor work circuitcause by the inertia of the upperstructure after thepressure becomes less than the swing crossover reliefvalves pressure setting. The release of pressure by thecushion valve after the swing crossover relief valvecloses is to achieve a cushioned stop and to preventthe back and forth movement of the upperstructure.(See Swing Stop Cushion Valve Operation in thisgroup.)

In relief operation (G), the relief valve opens in threesteps. In the first step, the pilot poppet (D) is opened.Flow restriction through the hollow piston (C) causesthe pressure in the cavity behind the main poppet (B)to decrease. In the second step of relief operation, thepiston (C) seats against the pilot poppet (D). Thisfurther reduces oil flow into the cavity and decreases
the pressure against the back side of the main poppet(B). The main poppet (B) opens in the third step ofrelief operation.
Relief pressure oil is routed to main poppet (A)opening it and providing crossover operation to preventmotor cavitation or allows oil to go to return.

Braking Initial PhaseWhen the control lever is returned to neutral, thecontrol valve spool returns to its neutral positiontrapping oil in the work circuits (K and L) to start thebraking phase.
At the same time the Pst port (A) is open to returnthrough the pilot controller. The pilot pressure spool(D) is pushed right by its spring (C) stopping pilot oilflow through Pzul port (B). A passage is openedthrough the spool and the 0.8 mm orifice (N)connecting the work circuits together.
The high pressure (P) created in the work circuit (L) bythe inertia of the upperstructure pushes the shuttle
valve (I) against the spring (H) closing the orifice (G).The trapped oil (S) at the end of swing cushion valve(E) keeps the spool shifted to the left. The high workcircuit pressure also opens the swing crossover reliefvalve.
Oil flows through the crossover relief valve and 0.8mm orifice (N) releasing pressure to the other workcircuit. The crossover relief valve closes when thepressure decreases below its pressure setting. Oilcontinues to flow through the orifice decreasing thepressure in work circuit.

Individual valve sections and the pressure controlmanifold are mounted to the manifold.
Pump supply (M) from both hydraulic pump is routedto the center passage. Supply oil is then routed toeach valve on both sides of the manifold and to thepressure control manifold.
Each valve section has two load sense ports. Loadsense (work port) pressure is routed to the pressurecontrol manifold.
The return passages contain the anti-cavitation checkvalve (L) and the oil cooler bypass valve (D). Theanti-cavitation check valve keep a minimum amount ofpressure in the return circuit for make-up valve oranti-cavitation valve function.
The oil cooler bypass valve protects the cooler if flowthrough the cooler becomes restricted.
(Serial No. —546276)The arm cylinder restrictor (H) is located in themanifold. Restrictor prevents arm in hesitation byrestricting return flow from arm cylinder rod end.
(Serial No. 546277—)The arm cylinder restrictor is now located in the armregenerative valve. Restrictor prevents arm inhesitation by restricting return flow from arm cylinderrod end. (See Arm Regenerative Valve Operation(Serial No. 546277—) in this group.)

Individual valve sections and the return manifold aremounted to the control valve manifold.
Pump supply oil (31) is routed to the center passage.Supply oil is then routed to each valve on both sides ofthe manifold and to the propel and bucket control valve“P” port (10).
Each valve section has two load sense ports. Loadsense (work port) pressure is routed to the pressureregulator (7).
The control valve manifold contains the pilot pressureregulating valve (16), load sense system relief valve(5), power boost solenoid (1), arm regenerative valve(11) and combined function shuttle valve (15).
Pilot oil (34) from pilot filter (4) is routed to the pilotpressure regulating valve (16). The pressure regulatingvalve limits the maximum allowable pilot pressure inthe circuit. Pilot oil is also routed to the power boostsolenoid (1). When activated by pressing the switch onthe top right pilot controller lever, the power boost
solenoid routes pilot oil to the spring side of the loadsense system relief valve (5). When deactivated, thepower boost solenoid routes the oil on the spring sideof the system relief valve to return.
Pump supply oil (31) from the control valve manifold(29) is routed to the safety relief valve in the propeland bucket control valve (30). The safety relief valveprotects the hydraulic system. When pressure exceedsthe spring force plus load sense (32) pressure, therelief valve opens, dumping the pressure spike toreturn.
Load sense oil from the control valve manifold isrouted to the load sense system relief valve (5). Thesystem relief valve limits the maximum systempressure by monitoring load sense pressure (work portpressure). Load sense oil is also routed to LS and LSAports and pump regulator (7).
The combined function shuttle valve (15) is used toimprove propel metering during combined functionoperation.

The arm cylinder restrictor screw (A) is used to restrictreturn oil flow from arm cylinder rod end. Restrictingcylinder rod end return flow eliminates movementhesitation when the arm is straight down.
With the boom raised and arm extended (cylinderretracted), gravity pulls the arm down faster than thepump can supply oil to the head end of cylinder whenarming in. When this happens, there is cavitation in thehead end of arm cylinder. To prevent cavitation, armcylinder restrictor adjusting screw is turned IN justenough to eliminate hesitation.
(Serial No. —546276)The arm cylinder restrictor is located on the rear of themain control valve manifold, in line with the arm valve.

All control valve sections are pilot actuated, closedcenter. Centering springs (N) on both ends of thespool hold the spool in neutral when not actuated.
Each spool pilot cap contains a spool travel stop screw(F). The screws are adjustable to control functionspeed. They can also be turned IN to manually movethe spool and lower a function if the engine or pumpwill not operate.
A pilot check valve with orifice (A) is used in the inletport of pilot caps for swing and boom. (Serial No. —543989)A pilot check valve with orifice (A) is also usedin the inlet port of pilot caps for the left and right propelvalve sections. The check valves open allowing pilot oilto enter the caps quickly. Check valves close to restrictreturn flow through the orifices, allowing the controlvalve spool to move slowly for more control of thefunction.
(Serial No. 543990—) Orifices are installed in the pilotline connections to the left and right propel valve pilotcaps. The orifices are “captured” in the connections ofpilot hose end fitting to tee fitting at the pilot caps. Theorifices restrict flow in both direction for more control ofthe propel function.
No pilot check valves with orifices or orifices are usedfor the bucket and arm valve section pilot lines.
A pilot cap check valve (air bleed) (I) is locatedbetween the pilot cap and return circuit. Wheneverpilot oil enters the pilot cap the ball moves off its seatand flushes a small amount of oil out of the pilot cap toreturn. Any air in the cap is automatically flushed outof the cap to return. The check valve on the other endis seated by return pressure.
Valve sections are similar in design with fewdifferences. Each valve spool has notches near end ofspool. Notches must always be towards the rod end“B” of the cylinder.
Boom, arm, and bucket valve sections (G) containcircuit relief valves with anti-cavitation valves (B).Control valve spools have two balance valves (D) andtwo shuttle valves (C).
Propel sections (O) contain make-up valves (H).Control valve spools have two balance valves (M) andtwo poppets (K) with springs (J).
Swing section (R) contains make-up valves. Controlvalve spool has two balance valves (Q) and two steelballs (P).

NOTE: For swing control valve, see Swing ControlValve Operation in this group. For propelcontrol valves, see Propel Control ValveOperation in Group 9020-05.
Boom, arm, and bucket control valves are loadcompensation design. Load compensation means thatall functions will continue to move, regardless of whatpressure the function is at, without further movementof control levers.
Load sense compensation is achieved by independentmovement of two balance valves (E and G) and twoshuttle valves (B and J) in each cylinder valve spool(boom, arm, and bucket).
Each work port (K and L) has a balance valve andshuttle valve. Each valve section also has two return
passages (D and H) and two load sense passages (Cand I). Each valve section has one pump supplypassage.
When control levers are not actuated, the control valvespools are held in neutral by centering springs in thepilot caps. Pump supply passage (F) is blocked(closed center). In neutral pump supply, work port,return and load sense passages are all blocked by thespool (A). Oil in the work ports is trapped.
NOTE: For regenerative valves, anti-drift valves, andswing torque control valve see operationstories in this group.

Whenever a pilot controller is moved, pilot oil (Q) isrouted to a control valve pilot cap. Pilot oil will start tomove the spool against the centering spring on theopposite end of the spool.
Load sensing “LS” is the first port to open. The secondport to open is work port “WP”. The upper work portwill be opened to return pressure due to the vent (E) inthe control spool passing over the return port. Theupper balance valve (J) and shuttle valve (A) will moveup to open all passages in the upper balance valve toreturn.
At this time the lower work port is at a higher pressurethan pump supply oil (N). Passage “D” (F) in the lowerbalance valve (L) will be open and force the lowershuttle valve (M) down. This will open passage “F” (I)and let work port oil flow behind the lower balancevalve and hold it shut until pump supply pressure ishigher than work port pressure. This will open the
passage between pump supply oil (N) and the workport. The balance valve in this mode is the lift checkvalve.
The pump supply port in control spool (K) is the lastport to open. When it opens, pump supply pressureflows through passage “E” (G) to the load sensepassage. The load sense pressure increases causingthe pump to increase swash, increasing pump supplypressure. The lower balance valve keeps the work portpassage closed until pump supply pressure is higherthan work port pressure. Once pump supply pressureis higher, the lower shuttle valve moves up connectingload sense pressure to passage “F”. The lowerbalance valve moves down allowing pump supplypressure to flow to the work port. With the balancevalve open, the cavity above the balance valveassumes approximate work port pressure. Thispressure flows through passage “E” allowing work portpressure to control load sense pressure.

The control spool (D) moves further as pilot pressure(J) increases. The return side of control valve willremain the same.
The control spool has moved up and pump supply “P”and work port “WP” are both open. Pump supplypressure is higher than work port because the balancevalve (E) is open. In single function operation, both thebalance valve and the shuttle valve are moved to thebottom of their bores.
The load sense pressure is always lower than pumpsupply pressure. Two factors establish the pressuredifference, load sense valve, and the orifice effect of
passages in the control valve between pump supplyport and work port. Supply oil must flow through threeopenings to get to work port. Every time the oil flowsthrough a passage there is a pressure drop, the sameway an orifice works. The smaller the opening, thesmaller the flow due to constant load sense pressure.An internal passage from work port to the load sensepassage routes pressure in this passage to the pumpregulator.
Load sense pressure is the same at both ends of allthe control spools because the two passages in thecontrol valve manifold are joined together in themanifold.

Load compensation comes into effect whenever two ormore functions are actuated at the same time.
In this example, both control spools (A) are moved allthe way. Valve “A” (M) has a heavier load than valve“B” (N). Because of the heavier load, the work portpressure (I) in valve “A” is higher than in valve “B”.The load sense pressure is always the same as thehighest work port pressure. Therefore, pump supplypressure is higher than the highest work port pressure.
In conventional control spools, in this situation, valve“B” would receive all the oil and valve “A” would get
very little or no oil. Valve “A” balance valve (B) andshuttle valve (G) are both wide open. In valve “B”pump supply oil (H) is higher than lowest work portpressure (J). Pump supply oil flows through passage“A” (D) and shifts the shuttle valve (F) up shutting offwork port pressure. When the shuttle valve moves up,it opens passage “B” (E) from load sense to thebottom of balance valve (C). The pressure under thebalance valve will move the valve up and reduce theoil flow to that work port.

The swing valve is the same design as boom, arm,and bucket control valves, except for three areas.Swing valve is a smaller capacity, like propel valves,than the cylinder valves. Swing valve uses make-upvalve, like propel, not anti-cavitation relief valves.Inside the swing valve, balance valve is a ball, not ashuttle valve.
The ball acts the same as a shuttle valve, except it isan ON—OFF valve that does not meter flow.
The balance valves act the same as the balancevalves in the cylinder valves.

The boom, arm, and bucket control valve sectionshave circuit relief with anticavitation features.
During normal operation (F) oil pressure in the workcircuit is less than the circuit relief valve setting andthe circuit relief valve remains closed.
During relief operation (G), the relief valve will open inthree steps. In the first step, the pilot poppet (D) isopened. Flow restriction through the hollow piston (C)causes the pressure in the cavity behind the mainpoppet (B) to decrease. In the second step of reliefoperation, the piston seats against the poppet. Thisfurther reduces oil flow into the cavity and greatlydecreases the pressure against the back side of mainpoppet. Some oil still flows into the cavity through theclearance between the piston and the main poppet.The main poppet opens in the third step of reliefoperation.
When the relief valve again closes, the piston and pilotpoppet move together until the pilot poppet is seated.Oil flows into the cavity through the clearance betweenthe piston and main poppet to move the piston awayfrom the pilot poppet. This permits flow into the cavitythrough the piston to seat the main poppet.
During anticavitation operation (H) the main poppet willretract to allow oil to flow from the return passage intothe work circuit. During normal operation and reliefoperation oil pressure on surface held the main poppetagainst its seat. This pressure decreases as pressurein the work circuit decreases. The return oil pressureon the surface moves the main poppet and pistonagainst the springs to open the valve.

Located on the swing, left propel, and right propelcontrol valve sections are make-up valves (J). Themake-up valves supply the motors with oil to preventcavitation.
In normal operation (E) work port pressure (D) will besensed on the face of poppet (B). Also work port
pressure will pass through the poppet and along withspring force will hold the poppet on the seat.
Whenever work port pressure drops below returnpressure, return pressure will open the poppet andreturn oil (I) will flow into the work port.

The return manifold (T) is located on the rear of theboom, swing, and arm control valve manifold.
The return manifold receives return oil (S) from theboom, swing, and arm control valve and propel andbucket control valve.
The primary function of the return manifold is to routelow pressure return oil (R) to the oil cooler. Thesecondary function is to route high pressure return oil(Q) (common during cold starts) through an externallymounted bypass relief valve (O). Oil flows through thisvalve to the hydraulic oil reservoir.

The boom regenerative valve plate (I) is locatedbetween the control valve manifold and boom valve(A). The plate is installed so the letter “A” stamped onthe plate is to the “A” end of boom valve.
An orifice (H) is located in the plate return passage onthe side against the manifold. The orifice and passageare aligned with the rod end return passage (E) ofboom valve at the “B” end.
The return passage at the “A” end of plate is closed onthe side against the manifold. Return oil from the head
end return passage (C) of boom valve cannot flowdirectly into the manifold but flows through a passagein the plate to the return passage at the other end.
NOTE: The letters “A” and “B” are located next to theboom valve work port.
The openings in the boom valve spool for boom downoil flow are smaller than the earlier design boom valve.The boom valve for early machines will not work withthe boom regenerative valve.

The function of boom regenerative valve during boomdown is to route return oil from the head end of boomcylinders to its rod end through the regenerative valveplate and anti-cavitation valve. The regenerativefeature works when the weight of the boom on thecylinders is pushing the return oil out the head endsuch as when lowering the boom back into a trench.
The return oil combines with the pump supply oil andflows to the rod end of cylinders. The openings inboom valve spool for boom down flow can be smallerbecause the greater volume of oil to fill the rod end iscoming from the head end through the regenerativevalve and anti-cavitation valve and there is less needfor oil from the pump to fill the rod end.

Plate
When boom down function is actuated, regenerative oil(P) flows from the head end of boom cylinders,through the boom valve head end return passage (C),and into the boom regenerative valve plate (I).Because the return passage to the manifold is blockedby the plate, the regenerative oil flows through thereturn passage (K) in the plate to the rod end returnpassage (E). The orifice (H) restricts the flow of oil intothe manifold increasing the pressure. The increasedpressure opens the anti-cavitation valve (B) allowing oilfrom the head end of boom cylinders to flow to the rodend. Excess return oil flows through the orifice and intomanifold return passage.
The pump supply oil not needed for boom downfunction because of the boom regenerative valve isavailable for other hydraulic function.
When cutting down the side of a bank or trench usingboom down, the smaller openings in the boom valvedoes not reduce pump supply oil flow to the rod end ofcylinders enough to affect machine performance. Loadsense and the balance valve in spool operate normallyto send pump supply oil to the rod end of boomcylinders forcing the boom down. The anti-cavitationvalve is held closed by the higher pressure in the workport so all return oil flows through the orifice and intothe manifold return passage.

When arm in function (S) is actuated with the arm fullyextended, regenerative oil (Q) flow is from the cylinderrod end, through rod end return passage (F), to thecontrol valve manifold (A). The oil flow is restricted bythe arm cylinder restrictor (L) to control the retractionof the arm. Oil then flows through the control manifoldpassage (K) to the arm regenerative valve (H) and thehead end circuit relief and anti-cavitation valve (E).Because the pressure at the cylinder head end is lessthan the pressure setting of the arm regenerative valve(H), regenerative oil flow pushes the head end

When the arm moves past the vertical position thepressure on the cylinder head end increases closingthe anti-cavitation valve.

The function of anti-drift valve (P) is to prevent cylinderdrift by stopping leakage from the cylinder backthrough the control valve section.
One anti-drift valve is mounted on the rear work port ofarm valve section for the rod end circuit and one onthe front work port of boom valve section for the headend circuit. For the arm anti-drift valve, the “X” port (A)for pilot oil pressure is connected to a tee fitting at thefront pilot cap. For the boom anti-drift valve, the “X”port (A) for pilot oil pressure is connected to a teefitting at the rear pilot cap. The “Y” port (B) isconnected to a tee fitting at the reservoir and is usedfor return oil (O) from the spring cavities of theanti-drift and relief valves
When function is not actuated, the pressure (M)generated in the circuit to the cylinder (E) by the loadis sense at the spring side of poppet (H) through the
orifice (C). The oil to fill the poppet spring cavity flowsthrough the small clearance between the poppet landand housing and then through the orifice. The pressurein the spring cavity and the spring hold the poppetagainst its seat making a leak-free circuit. The checkvalves (D) are also held closed by the pressure.
The anti-drift valve isolates the cylinder circuit from thecircuit relief valve in the control valve section. Aparallel-connected direct-acting relief valve (K) protectsthe cylinder circuit from the pressure peaks andshocks which can occur when the control valve isclosed. The passage to relief valve (G) routes thepressure oil to the relief valve. The relief valve relievesinto the passage from control valve (F). The circuitrelief valve then relieves the pressure peaks andshocks to the return circuit in the control valve. Therelief valve (K) spring cavity is open to return through apassage to “Y” port (L).

When the boom down or arm out function is actuated,pilot oil (N) also flows to the anti-drift valve “X” port(A). The pilot oil pushes the piston (J) against the pilotpoppet (I) pushing it off its seat. Oil then flows from thepoppet (H) spring cavity, past the pilot poppet and outthe “Y” port (B) faster than oil can flow through theorifice (C) causing the pressure in the cavity todecrease. Return oil (O) from the cylinder (E) pushesthe poppet off its seat opening the passage to thecontrol valve (F) for the normal free-flow of oil to thereturn circuit. The poppet is pushed open by the returnoil because the OD at poppet land is slightly largerthan the OD at the head end of poppet.
When the control lever is returned to neutral, the pilotcap and anti-drift valve “X” port (B) are open to returnthrough the pilot controller. The control valve spool isreturned to its neutral position by its centering spring.The oil in the circuit to cylinder is again trappedcausing the pressure in the circuit to increase withrespect to the load on the cylinder. As the pilot oil
pressure at the “X” port decreases below the pistonand pilot poppet spring force, the pilot poppet closesstopping the flow of return oil out the “Y” port. Oil flowsacross the poppet land and then through the orifice (C)increasing the pressure in the poppet (G) spring cavity.The poppet closes with a deliberate delay action so itdoes not override the normal closing action of thecontrol valve spool.
For boom down or arm in function, the anti-drift valveacts as a lift check. As the pressure oil from controlvalve (F) increases and pushes on the head end ofpoppet the pressure in the poppet (H) spring cavityalso increases. When the spring cavity pressurebecomes greater than the load (pressure) on thecylinder, the check valves (D) opens releasing thepressure in the spring cavity. Pressure oil from thecontrol valve pushes the poppet open opening thepassage from control valve to the cylinder for thenormal flow of oil to move the cylinder.

NOTE: (Serial No. 546277—) The later designedswing torque control valve is now used for thelong front machines. (See Swing TorqueControl Valve Operation—For Long FrontMachines in this group.)
The swing torque control valve (X) is located betweenswing valve and control valve manifold.
When swing is actuated, pilot oil (U) is routed to theswing control valve pilot cap. Pilot oil is also routed toa passage (P or I) in control plate. The ball (O) inshuttle valve (Q) moves to route pilot oil through orifice(D) to the end of relief valve (A) poppet (C) and tospring side of pressure reducing valve (E).
The relief valve controls the maximum pilot oilpressure being routed to the pressure reducing valve.
The pressure reducing valve shuttle spool (L) sensesLS “load sense” oil from manifold (R) when swingvalve is actuated and LS oil from manifold (J) whenother functions are actuated and routes some of thehigher LS oil to the other LS from manifold passage.This reduces pump response time and limits swingpressure.
When one or multiple functions (S) are actuated alongwith swing, LS oil pressure from the one or multiplefunctions is routed to port (J). From port (J) LS oil isrouted to shuttle spool (L) and check valve (N). Checkvalve opens if the other LS oil pressure is higher. Fromthe check valve, LS oil pressure is routed to the swingvalve balance valves inside the spool. The higher LSoil pressure moves the balance valves to reduce oilflow going to the work ports.

The pressure reducing valve is shim adjustable. Addingshims increases the pressure setting moving the completeplot line (curve) (F, M, and C) up.
The angle of the plot line (curve) slope (M) is controlledby the amount of pilot oil pressure in the pressurereducing valve spring chamber. As pilot pressureincreases, spring force increases.
When the relief valve poppet opens (C), pilot oil pressureon the spring side of the pressure reducing valve hasreached its maximum specification.

The swing torque control valve (R) is located betweenswing valve (Q) and control valve manifold.
The function of the swing torque control valve is toregulate load sense oil from the swing valve to themain pump regulator to control pump output. Pump
output is controlled to allow maximum flow to theswing motor without opening the swing crossover reliefvalves.
(Serial No. 556936—)The swing torque control valve is of the same designand serves the same function as before. The boom,swing, and arm control valve manifold that the swingtorque control valve mounts to has changed.

When left or right swing is actuated (P), load sense oil(M) from the swing valve load sense passage (D) flowsto the pressure regulating valve (H). Load sense oilflows past the spool (J) land and is sensed at the topend of piston (K) pushing the spool (J) up against thespring regulating load sense oil. The reduced loadsense oil (N) flows out the port to the manifold loadsense passage (F) and then to the main pumpregulator. The main pump regulator controls the pumpoutput in response to the regulated load sense oilpressure from the swing torque control valve.
The pressure setting for pressure regulating valve isless than the swing crossover relief valve pressure
setting. The adjusting screw (A) is used to adjust thevalve pressure setting.
The check valve (I) is held closed by the higher loadsense oil pressure from the swing valve during swingoperation.
Return oil in return passage (B or E) is used todampen the spool movement on the spring end andthrough the orifice (G) on the piston end.

Power boost is actuated by pushing the power boostswitch on top of the right hand dig pilot controller.
A electrical sensing signal is sent to the systemcontroller. The system controller sends a control signalto the power boost solenoid. The magnetic coil in thesolenoid moves pin (J) against spool (E) and spring(G) force. Pilot oil (K) from the pilot pressure regulatingvalve (A) is routed to the spring side of the load sensesystem relief valve (B).
System working pressure is then increased byapproximately 10%.
The system controller limits the time the function isactive for each push of the switch to 10 seconds.Length of time the function is active can not beaccumulated by continually pushing the switch.

A electrical sensing signal is sent to the systemcontroller. The system controller sends a control signalto the power boost solenoid. The magnetic coil movesthe solenoid spool. Pilot oil (E) from the pilot pump (B)is routed to the spring side of the load sense systemrelief valve (D).
System working pressure is then increased byapproximately 10%.
The system controller limits the time the function isactive for each push of the switch to 10 seconds.Length of time the function is active can not beaccumulated by continually pushing the switch.

The load sense system relief valve is a direct acting,screw adjustable relief that limits supply pressure bymonitoring load sense (LS) pressure.
Spring force plus reservoir pressure holds poppet (F)on its seat during normal operation (D). As load sensepressure (work port pressure) increases it acts on theface of poppet (F). When LS pressure is more than
spring force plus reservoir pressure the poppet opens(G) and dumps LS pressure to return.
When power boost (H) is activated pilot oil is routed tothe spring side of the poppet. Relief pressure isincreased because LS pressure now must overcomespring force and pilot oil pressure.

The safety relief valve is a direct acting, shimadjustable relief that protects the main hydraulicpumps from pressure spikes.
Spring force plus load sense (LS) pressure (H) holdspoppet (E) on its seat. The valve works throughout thepressure range of the system. The higher the LSpressure, the higher the safety relief valve setting.
Whenever there is a hydraulic pressure spike or aproblem with system relief valve or the LS circuit, thepoppet will lift off its seat and dump supply oil (G) toreturn (I).

Splined to the drive shafts are the cylinder blocks (Aand F). The front pump section is the one closest tothe engine. Each cylinder block has nine pistons (K).As the cylinder blocks rotate the pistons will move inand out by following the incline of the swashplates (Hand L).
When the pistons move out of their bores, they willdraw oil from the reservoir. Moving back into theirbores, they will force oil out the discharge ports (D andJ) and to the control valves.
The angle of the swashplates determines the amountof flow the pump delivers. To control pumpdisplacement, each pump section has control pistons(servo pistons) attached to the swashplates.
The small pistons (E) always have pump supplycontrol oil (M) pressure and are always trying to keepthe pump at maximum displacement.
Feedback springs (B) are used to center pumpsections when the pumps are operating.
On the opposite side of the swashplate are the largepistons (I). Oil pressure to the large pistons comesfrom the regulator (C) located on top of the pump.Controlling the amount of oil to the large pistons willdetermine the pump output. The large pistons are ableto move the small pistons back in their bores becauseof the area difference.
The control pistons are located on the outer side of theswashplate. The rotating groups (cylinder blocks) arein the center of the swashplate.

The pump displacement solenoid de-energized (H),upper illustration, is in this position when all the pilotcontrollers are in neutral or when system pressure islow (approximately below 1850 psi).
The solenoid (A) receives a small current when theengine is running, but it is not enough to move thespool (B). Pilot oil (E) is routed to the displacementsolenoid and is blocked.
The displacement adjustment screw (C) adjustsregulated pilot oil (F) which is routed to the load sensevalve. This passage is open to return at low systempressure.
When the solenoid is energized (I), the spool (B) ismoved against the spring and opens a passage forpilot oil to flow. Pilot oil is regulated and routed to theload sense valve to decrease load sense differential,which will deswash the main hydraulic pump.
Turning the displacement adjustment screw “in”reduces the pressure signal that is routed to the largecontrol piston.
The operator selected work modes correspond topreset current signal levels for the displacementsolenoid. For example, in “PR” work mode the currentsignal level to the displacement solenoid is the highest,which corresponds to 65% pump flow.
When the hydraulic system is loaded, the solenoidcurrent signal increases (deswashing the pump) to limitthe pump load to the maximum available enginepower. The input signal to the system controller for thepump load comes from the engine speed sensor. Thesystem controller then sends a current signal to thedisplacement solenoid. The solenoid current signalreturns to the preset level when the hydraulic systemis unloaded. (See Control System Operation in thisgroup for more information.)

When the control valves are in neutral, the hydraulicsystem is a closed center system. The load sensesignal from the pressure control manifold (O) is atreservoir pressure. Pump supply (P) will always behigher than load sense pressure.
Pump supply oil will move the load sense spool (F) tothe left, opening a passage to the large control piston(C). An orifice (G) is located in the housing that allowsa small amount of oil from the large control piston (C)to flow to return. This provides for smooth operation ofthe load sense valve. Supply oil is routed to the smallcontrol piston (D) when the engine is running. Thesmall control piston and the large control piston areconnected to the swashplate. With equal oil pressure
on both pistons, the large one with more surface areadeswashes the pump to minimum displacement (S).
In neutral, the pump displacement solenoid (M) hasonly a small current applied, which is not enough tomove the spool (K) against the spring (J). Pilot oil (Q)from the pilot pump (L) is blocked by the spool.
The load sense valve is screw adjustable. If the loadsense pressure differential is set too high, the pumpcomes into stroke quickly causing jerky operation, andthe combined functions operation will cause the engineto lug down excessively. When the load sensepressure differential is set too low, the individualfunction operation will be slow.

With all main control valve sections in neutral, loadsense pressure from the control valves is at return oilpressure (V).
Pump supply oil pressure (S) will be approximately2758 kPa (28 bar) (400 psi). This pressure, acting onthe end of load sense spool (B) will overcome springforce and load sense pressure on the opposite endand open a passage from pump supply oil pressure tothe large control piston (L) deswashing the pump tominimum displacement.
In neutral, the pump displacement solenoid (Q) hasonly a small current applied which is not enough tomove the spool (O). Pilot oil (T) is blocked by thespool.
The large control piston is twice the diameter of thesmall control piston (M). Pump supply pressure willmove the large control piston to deswash the pumpswashplate (K) and put the pump at minimum flow.
Both pumps are controlled by the same load sensepressure and the large piston in both pumps are at
pump supply oil pressure. Both pump sections will beat a minimum flow.
The system controller manual override valve is open toreturn in neutral (at Serial No. 538539 a detent wasadded to manual override valve and style of knob waschanged). A check valve in the fitting on the pumpregulator prevents oil flow from the pump displacementsolenoid spool. If there is a system controllermalfunction, the operator can open the override valveto continue working until service can be preformed. Donot start engine with override valve open as enginewould start at “P” (max. power) power mode. The mainhydraulic pump operates at approximately 65—75%with the override valve open. Pilot oil is regulated bythe pressure regulator valve (E) and is routed to theload sense spool. This regulated oil pressure joins loadsense pressure and moves the load sense spool left.Load sense differential pressure is reduced thus pumpdisplacement would be decreased.

In this illustration, two control valve section (I and L)spools have been moved. Pump supply oil (T) isapplied to both control valve sections. Because ofload, control valve (L) has the highest work portpressure (U) and this moves shuttle valve (J) down.Highest work port pressure passes through balancevalve (K), around the shuttle spool and controls loadsense pressure.
The load sense spool (B) controls pump flow whensupply oil is below 12 411 kPa (124 bar) (1800 psi).
In low pressure control operation, pump supply oilacting on the end of the load sense spool, will alwaysbe below 12 411 kPa (124 bar) (1800 psi). Load senseoil plus spring force will move the load sense spool tothe right. This opens a path from the large controlpiston (N) by the load sense spool to the reservoir (S).
When load sense pressure and spring force on oneend of the load sense spool are equal to pump supplyoil on the opposite end, the load sense spool traps oilto the large control piston. Whenever the oil to thelarge control piston is trapped the pumps are
maintaining flow somewhere between minimum andmaximum flow.
If the load in the circuit with the highest work portpressure increases, highest work port pressureincreases, raising load sense pressure (U). Loadsense pressure and spring force act on the load sensespool, move the spool, opening a passage betweenreturn and the large control piston. This allows thesmall control piston (O) to increase swashplate angle,increasing pump flow.
If the load decreases, load sense pressure decreases.This allows pump supply oil acting on the load sensespool to overcome load sense pressure and springforce. This opens a passage between pump supply oiland the large control piston, decreasing swash andpump flow.
The load sense system relief valve (E) limits loadsense pressure. Since pump sections respond to loadsense pressure, if load sense pressure does notincrease, pump supply will not increase.

Pump supply oil (T) is controlled by the pumpdisplacement solenoid (P) any time pressure is above12 411 kPa (124 bar) (1800 psi). Engine horsepower isfixed. As pressure increases, pump flow mustdecrease to prevent stalling the engine.
Control valve (L) has the highest work port pressure(U) and is controlling load sense pressure. As pressureincreases, the difference between load sense andpump supply pressure becomes less. Above 12 411kPa (124 bar) (1800 psi), load sense pressure andspring force will overcome pump supply oil force onthe load sense spool (B). The pump displacementsolenoid now controls pump flow.
When machine load increases, pump supply oilpressure increases. The increased load decreasesengine speed which is sensed by the systemcontroller. The system controller sends a signal to thepump displacement solenoid (P) that moves spool (Q)to the right against the spring. This opens a passagefor pilot oil (W) that is regulated (X) to flow to the loadsense spool (B). This signal joins pump supply andmoves the load sense spool to the left, opening a
passage for pump supply oil to flow to the large controlpiston (N). Any time pump supply flows to the largecontrol piston, the pump deswashes and pump flowdecreases.
As the pump deswashes, the load on the enginedecreases. The system controller senses this and thepump displacement solenoid and spool remainstationary. Pump supply and regulated pilot oil willequalize with load sense oil and spring force. Thistraps oil to the large control piston. With oil trapped tothe large control piston, the pump will be heldsomewhere between minimum and maximum flow.
When machine load decreases, pump supply oilpressure decreases and engine speed increases. Thisis sensed by the system controller which provides onlya small current to the pump displacement solenoid.Spring force moves spool (Q) left and blocks pilot oil. Ifpump supply oil further decreases, the load sensespool would move right. This would open a passagefrom the large control piston to return. Pump flowwould again increase.

During normal propel operation oil returns from thepropel motors through the rotary manifold to thecontrol valve on earlier machines or to the propel andbucket control valve on later machines. Return oil fromthe swing motor is also routed through the maincontrol valve on earlier machines or through the boom,swing, and arm control valve manifold on latermachines. Approximately 50% of the return oil flowingto the control valve is routed to the reservoir throughthe oil cooler.
Return oil from the pilot shut off valve, pump regulator,and engine speed control actuator go directly to thereservoir.
When the oil is cold or the oil cooler is clogged, returnoil from the control valve flows directly back to thereservoir through the oil cooler bypass valve.

The boom, arm, and bucket cylinders are similar indesign. The arm cylinder is illustrated here. The rodguide is fastened to the cylinder barrel with cap screwsand is fitted with a bearing (E). The bearing is held isposition by a retaining ring (D). Three types of sealsare used in the rod guide., a step seal (F), U-cup seal(G), and wiper seal (H). The U-cup seal is protectedagainst high pressure by the step seal and stops asmall amount of oil which may pass by the step seal.A bearing (wear ring) (E) is located between the stepseal and the retaining ring.
The piston is a slip fit on the rod and is retained with anut (I). A shim is used between the piston and nut toprevent galling when the nut is tightened. The piston is
fitted with a cap seal (C), wear rings (B), and bufferseals (A).
Boom, bucket, and arm cylinders have a cushion infront of the piston to provide a cushioning action duringcylinder extension. As the cylinder nears the end of itsstroke the cushion enters a bore in the rod guide. Theremaining return oil ahead of the piston and nut mustflow through a small clearance as the cylinder bottomsout in this direction. Only the arm cylinder is cushionedin retraction. The end of the rod enters a bore in thehead end of the cylinder. The remaining return oilahead of the piston and nut must flow through thissmall clearance as the cylinder bottoms out in thisdirection.

Hydraulic System Warm-Up Procedure
SPECIFICATIONS
Oil Temperature 50 ± 6°C (120 ± 10°F)
Below 0°C (32°F) an extended warm-up period may benecessary. Hydraulic functions will move slowly andlubrication of parts may not be adequate with cold oil.Do not attempt normal machine operation untilhydraulic functions move at or close to normal cycletimes.
Operate functions slowly and avoid suddenmovements until engine and hydraulic oils arethoroughly warmed.
SpecificationOil—Temperature 50 ± 6°C (120 ± 10°F)............................................
Operate a function by moving it a short distance ineach direction. Continue operating the functionincreasing the distance traveled in each cycle until fullstroke is reached.
For faster warm-up, restrict air flow through oil coolerusing cardboard or other similar material. Use correctviscosity oil to minimize warm-up period. (SeeHydraulic Oil in Fuels and Lubricants group.)
1. Install temperature probe on reservoir-to-pump inletline. (See JT05800 Digital Thermometer Installationin this group.)
CAUTION: Avoid possible serious injuryfrom machine movement during warm-upprocedure. Clear the area of all personnelbefore doing the warm-up procedure.
2. Clear the area of all personnel to allow for machinemovement.
3. Start engine.
4. Push auto-idle switch to turn off auto-idle function(auto-idle indicator OFF).
5. Turn upperstructure so boom is to the side.
CAUTION: Avoid possible serious injuryfrom machine sliding backwards. Keep anglebetween boom and arm at 90—110°.
6. Keeping the angle between boom and arm at 90—110°, lower boom to raise track off the ground.
7. Push “M” (work mode select) switch to operate in“HD” work mode (heavy duty mode—HD indicatorON) and max. power mode (P indicator ON).
8. Push propel speed increase (right arrow) switch tooperate at high speed propel (rabbit—high speedpropel mode indicator ON).
IMPORTANT: Holding a function over relief formore than 10 seconds can causedamage from hot spots in thecontrol valve.
9. Operate the bucket curl function over relief and thepropel function (with track off the ground) for 10seconds and then stop for 5 seconds. Repeat thecycle until oil is heated to specifications.
10. Stop periodically and operate all hydraulicfunctions to distribute the heated oil.

The arm cylinder restrictor is used to restrict the return oilflow from arm cylinder rod end. When the arm is extendedand then arm-in function is activated, the weight of armand bucket can cause the arm (extend cylinder) to movefaster than pump can supply oil to the head end ofcylinder causing cavitation. Too much restriction, capscrew turned in too far, will cause the cycle time for armcircuit to be slow.
Adjustment is made by watching arm during arm-infunction. Adjustment is correct when arm does not stop asit reaches a vertical position.

Load sense valve is in the pump regulator on top of mainhydraulic pump.
When differential pressure between the pump supply andload sense is too high, the controls will be overlyaggressive causing machine to be jerky and metering of afunction difficult. High differential pressure will cause thepumps to come into stroke too quickly causing boom hopwhen trying to fine grade. Machine instability or enginestalling can be other complaints. When differentialpressure is too low, hydraulic functions will be slow orinsufficient propel power. Decrease engine speed slightlyif gauge fluctuates during adjustment.
1. Remove reservoir fill cap to release air pressure. Installcap.

IMPORTANT: Avoid damage to differential pressuregauge. The higher pressure from “P”(pump supply pressure) test port mustbe connected to the HI port side ofdifferential pressure gauge. The lowerpressure from LS (load sense pressure)test port must be connected to the LOWport side of gauge.
NOTE: A differential pressure gauge or Parker SensorControl is the preferred instrument to use forsetting load sense differential pressure.
If a gauge and switch box are used, they must bechecked before starting the test. A leak in theswitch box can cause an incorrect adjustment.Because of the differences in gauge tolerance,two gauges cannot be used.
2. Install gauges or digital pressure and temperatureanalyzer transducers to “LS” test port and pressure testport “P”. For machines (Serial No. —556935), usefitting (A) or male quick coupler. If gauges are used,connect hose from “P” test port to the HI port and hosefrom “LS” test port to the LOW port on pressuredifferential gauge.
3. Install temperature probe on reservoir-to-pump inletline. (See procedure in this group.)
IMPORTANT: The oil temperature must be kept withinthe specified range to get an accuratesetting of the load sense valvedifferential pressure

Test indicates if the problem is in the engine,electronics, pump regulator (load sense valve andpump displacement valve), or hydraulic pump.
Do the test and make a chart of the data for thefollowing items: pump pressure, pump flow, enginespeed, temperature, and pressure at pump regulatorload sense valve “A” port.
Use the chart to determine the cause of problem:
An engine problem is indicated if pump starts todeswash at less than 9650 kPa (96.5 bar) (1400 psi)pump pressure.
An electronics, pump regulator, or pump problem isindicated if engine pulldown does not stabilize (flattenout) as pump flow is reduced.
• Check the “A” port pressure reading. The controlsignal (control pressure) from the regulator to largecontrol piston is sensed at the “A” port. If pressureincreases as pump is deswashed, a problem in thepump is indicated and electronics and pumpregulator are OK.If “A” port pressure does not increase as pump isdeswashed, an electronics or regulator problem isindicated.
• Do Hydraulic Pump Displacement Solenoid ValveTest and Adjustment. If regulated pilot pressure canbe adjusted, electronics and displacement solenoidvalve are OK. A problem is indicated in the loadsense valve.If regulated pilot pressure cannot be adjusted, apump displacement solenoid valve problem orelectronics problem is indicated.
• Check pump displacement solenoid and controlsignal from the system controller. (See procedure inSection 9015.)

NOTE: Specifications given in example chart aretypical for a new pump.
In the example, rpm for engine pulldownreached system controller set point and pumpregulation (pump deswash to decrease flow)started between the pressure reading of 1200and 1500. Engine speed became stable(flattened out) at 1225 rpm. The systemcontroller will maintain that engine speed anddeswash the pump further as the pressureincreases.
14. Use the test record to determine the cause ofproblems.
A pump flow of less than 220 L/min (58 gpm) at 10340 kPa (103 bar) (1500 psi) is an indication ofexcessive leakage in the pump rotary group. Checkhydraulic pump case leakage flow. (See procedure inthis group.)

The compressor draws low pressure gas from theevaporator and compresses it into high pressure gas.Increasing the pressure of refrigerant causes its boilingpoint to rise to a temperature higher than the outsideair temperature.
As the high pressure gas flows through the condenser,the engine fan draws air through the condenser corewhich cools the refrigerant. Cooling the refrigerantcauses it to condense and leave the condenser as ahigh pressure liquid.
The high pressure liquid flows into the receiver/dryerwhere moisture and contaminants are removed. The
receiver/dryer is also a reservoir that stores excessrefrigerant. A sight glass is mounted in the top ofreceiver/dryer. Bubbles can be seen in the sight glasswhen the system refrigerant is low.
The refrigerant flows from the receiver/dryer to theexpansion valve. The expansion valve is a variableorifice used to cause a pressure and temperature dropin the refrigerant and regulate flow into the evaporator.Lowering the pressure of the refrigerant lowers itsboiling point. As the liquid refrigerant flows into theevaporator, warm cab air flowing through theevaporator core causes the refrigerant to vaporize.Cab air is cooled and dehumidified.

A gas filled sensing bulb connected to a diaphragm inthe expansion valve is used to control refrigerant flowthrough the evaporator. The sensing bulb is fastenedto the evaporator outlet tube and senses thetemperature of the refrigerant at the evaporator outlet.The sensing bulb and outlet tube are insulated withtape to keep outside air temperature from affectingoperation of the expansion valve. If too muchrefrigerant is flowing into the evaporator, the liquidrefrigerant will still be evaporating as it leaves theevaporator causing a low temperature at the
evaporator outlet. The low temperature causes theexpansion valve variable orifice to decrease in size,restricting refrigerant flow. If the evaporatoroutlet-temperature is too warm, the orifice will increasein size allowing more refrigerant into evaporator. Ifevaporator temperature becomes too high or low thethermostat switch will interrupt current flow tocompressor clutch coil, stopping system operation untiltemperature becomes normal. When thermostat switchstops system operation, maintenance is usuallyrequired to correct a problem.

Air conditioner circuit contains: 10-amp monitor fuseF6, 20-amp blower and air conditioner clutch fuse F13,blower relay, blower motor, blower switch, airconditioner switch, compressor clutch indicator light,compressor relay, thermostat switch, high/low pressureswitch, compressor clutch coil.
Current from blower and air conditioning clutch fuseflows to blower relay and air conditioner compressorrelay. Current from 10-amp monitor fuse flows toblower relay and air conditioner switch. When blowerswitch is turned to low, current flows through blowerswitch making a ground for blower relay coil energizingit. Current flows through blower relay, motor and tworesistors to ground, motor runs in low speed. Whenblower switch is turned to medium, blower relay coil isgrounded through blower switch, current flows throughblower motor and one resistor to ground, motor runs inmedium speed. When blower switch is turned to high,current flows through blower relay and motor throughblower switch to ground, motor runs at high speed.
With blower switch ON in low, medium or high and airconditioner switch ON, current flows throughcompressor relay, clutch indicator light and blowerswitch to ground illuminating indicator light andenergizing compressor relay.
The thermostat switch prevents evaporator freeze-up.Thermostat switch is closed during normal operationallowing current to flow to high/low pressure switchand compressor clutch coil to ground, engagingcompressor clutch. If temperature in evaporator goesbelow specified range, thermostat switch opens,de-energizing compressor clutch until evaporatortemperature is within specification. Thermostat switchthen closes, energizing compressor clutch.
The high/low pressure switch is closed when it is in thesystem (system pressure above 207 kPa 30 psi), but isopen when exposed to ambient air pressure. High/lowpressure switch will open if the air conditioning systemloses its refrigerant charge. The switch opens to stop
current flow to the compressor clutch coil preventingcompressor engagement. The high/low switch islocated on the outlet side of the receiver/dryer.
The high/low pressure switch is closed unless systempressure goes above 2647 kPa (384 psi). If amalfunction or line restriction causes pressure toincrease above switch setting, the switch will openstopping current flow to the compressor clutch coil.
The compressor relief valve is a direct acting reliefvalve mounted on compressor outlet tube. If systempressure exceeds 3100 kPa (450 psi) relief valve willopen with a loud popping sound. Whenever thecompressor relief valve opens a malfunction usuallyexists and should be corrected.
With the engine running, blower switch ON, airconditioner switch ON, the compressor clutch isengaged and the compressor operates. Refrigerant ina gaseous state enters the compressor and iscompressed into a high pressure, high temperaturegas.
High pressure, high temperature gas flows into thecondenser where the engine fan draws ambient airthrough the condenser coils, cooling the gas. As thegas is cooled it condenses into a high pressure liquid.
High pressure liquid flows through the receiver/dryerwhere it is filtered and moisture is removed.
High pressure liquid flows through expansion valveorifice where pressure is reduced allowing refrigerantto boil and vaporize as it enters the evaporator as acold low pressure gas. Vaporization continues as theblower fan blows air across evaporator coils. Air beingblown across evaporator coils becomes cold and coolsthe operators compartment.
Low pressure warm gas enters the compressor to startthe cycle again.

The receiver/dryer is a reservoir to store excess liquidrefrigerant in the system. Excess refrigerant is required fortwo reasons:
Outside air temperature and humidity have an effect onthe minimum quantity of refrigerant required in the systemfor the air conditioner to operate at maximum efficiency.The higher the temperature and humidity, the morerefrigerant required in the system. More refrigerant isrequired due to the expansion valve opening fartherallowing more refrigerant into the low pressure side of thesystem.
Refrigerant hoses allow a small amount of refrigerant tomigrate through their walls. Extra refrigerant stored in thesystem allows for a longer period of time before additionalrefrigerant is needed.
The receiver/dryer also contains two filters (E) and adesiccant (F) between the filters. The filters remove solidmaterials which could be generated by a compressorfailure, debris left in the system due to improper serviceprocedures, or particles caused by corrosion of metalparts due to moisture and acids in the system (alsocaused by improper service procedures).
Desiccant is used to absorb moisture. If too muchmoisture gets into the system, the desiccant may not beable to absorb it all. When moisture is combined withrefrigerant oil, a sludge is formed. This sludge does notpermit moving parts to be adequately lubricated. Whenmoisture is combined with refrigerant, hydrofluoric andhydrochloric acids are formed. These acids are verycorrosive to metal surfaces and leakage will eventuallydevelop. If the air conditioning system is left open for aperiod of time or if the plugs are removed from thereceiver/dryer, the desiccant will also absorb moisturefrom the air. Evacuating the system will not removemoisture from the desiccant.

A sight glass is installed in the receiver/dryer outlet port. Ifthe refrigerant level is low, a steady stream of gasbubbles will be present in the liquid flowing from thereceiver/dryer. These gas bubbles can be seen in thesight glass and are an indication that the system needscharging. However, bubbles may be present when thecompressor clutch first engages but must disappear aftera few seconds. If the sight glass is clear, the systemeither has a sufficient charge or is completely discharged.

The expansion valve is used to regulate the amount ofrefrigerant flowing into the evaporator. Since morerefrigerant can be vaporized by warm moist air than cooldry air, the expansion valve adjusts flow to the maximumamount that can be vaporized in the evaporatordepending upon the heat and humidity in the air.
The expansion valve is also an orifice used to cause apressure drop in the liquid refrigerant to lower its boilingpoint, causing the refrigerant to vaporize as it is heated bythe air flowing through the evaporator. Since heat isrequired to vaporize a liquid, the heat is removed from theair and added to the refrigerant.
The expansion valve is controlled by a gas filled sensingbulb (A) connected to a diaphragm (C). The sensing bulbis fastened to the evaporator outlet line and senses thetemperature of the refrigerant leaving the evaporator. Thebulb and line are wrapped with insulating tape to keepoutside air temperature from affecting valve operation. Iftoo much refrigerant is flowing through the evaporator, theliquid refrigerant will still be evaporating as it leaves theevaporator, causing a low temperature at the evaporatoroutlet. The low temperature causes the gas pressure inthe sensing bulb to decrease. Spring (G) moves valveseat (F) closer to orifice (E), reducing the refrigerant flow.If outlet temperature is too warm, gas pressure in sensingbulb will increase, causing diaphragm (C) to move valveseat (F) away from orifice (E), increasing refrigerant flow.
If the expansion valve sensing bulb does not make goodcontact with the evaporator outlet line, or if the insulatingtape is missing, frost will form on the evaporator outletline. Frost forms because the sensing bulb will not becooled to the actual line temperature. This will keep theexpansion valve open too far and the refrigerant will stillbe evaporating as it leaves the evaporator, cooling theline to less than 0°C (32°F).
An external equalizer line (B) is connected to theevaporator outlet line to transmit evaporator outletpressure to the spring side of the diaphragm. Using anexternal equalizer line causes a more stable operation ofthe valve.

Compressor Relief Valve Operation
The compressor relief valve is a direct acting pressurelimiting valve. If a malfunction in the system occursthat would cause high pressure, such as a restrictedline, the valve will open at 3100 ± 380 kPa (31 ± 3.8bar) (450 ± 55 psi) and remain open until pressuredrops to below the valve setting.
If the relief valve opens, a loud popping noise will beheard. Some oil may also be lost from the system.Correct any condition that would cause the valve toopen.

Refrigerant (R-12) Cautions
CAUTION: DO NOT allow liquid refrigerant(R-12) to contact eye or skin. Liquidrefrigerant (R-12) will freeze eye or skin oncontact. Wear goggles, gloves and protectiveclothing.
If liquid refrigerant (R-12) contacts eye orskin, DO NOT rub the area. Splash largeamounts of COOL water on affected area. Goto a physician or hospital immediately fortreatment.
DO NOT allow refrigerant (R-12) to contactopen flames or very hot surfaces such aselectric welding arc, electric heating elementand lighted smoking materials. Refrigerant(R-12), exposed to high temperature, formsphosgene gas.
Inhaling toxic phosgene gas may result inserious illness or death. Phosgene gas has
an odor like new mown hay or green corn. Ifyou inhale phosgene gas, go to a physicianor hospital immediately for treatment.
DO NOT heat refrigerant (R-12) over 52°C(125°F) in a closed container. Heatedrefrigerant (R-12) will develop high pressurewhich can burst the container.
Keep refrigerant (R-12) containers away fromheat sources. Store refrigerant (R-12) in acool place.
DO NOT handle damp refrigerant (R-12)container with your bare hands. Skin mayfreeze to container. Wear gloves.

Check And Add Compressor Oil
IMPORTANT: The compressor takes a special 525viscosity oil that has "specialadditives" which give bettercompressor life.
If complete system was flushed toremove contamination, the fullcharge of oil 326 mL (11 fl oz) mustbe added to the system.
1. Remove compressor. Drain the oil from the suctionport and record amount of oil.
2. If 90—240 mL (3—8 fl oz) was drained from theoriginal compressor, add 180 mL (6 fl oz) of new oilback into the compressor.
3. If more than 240 mL (8 fl oz) was drained from theoriginal compressor, add 180 mL (6 fl oz) of new oilback into the compressor. Replace receiver/dryer toremove excess oil from the system.
4. If less than 90 mL (3 fl oz) was drained from theoriginal compressor, flush all components of thesystem. Replace the receiver/dryer and add 330 mL(11 fl oz) of new oil back into the system.
5. When installing a compressor that has beendisassembled and reassembled with no oil charge,
add an extra 30 mL (1 fl oz) to the amountsspecified in steps 2, 3 or 4.
6. When installing a new or remanufacturedcompressor, drain the oil. Replace with new oil persteps 2, 3 or 4.
7. If components of the system were drained andflushed, add 330 mL (11 fl oz) to the compressor.
8. After adding proper amount of oil, rotate thecompressor shaft four or five times to insure properlubrication of the compressor seal.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT add any more oil thannecessary or maximum cooling willbe reduced.
9. When servicing individual components, determinethe oil charge needed using following chart:

Leak Testing
1. Inspect all lines, fittings, and components for oily ordusty spots. When refrigerant leaks from thesystem, a small amount of oil is carried out with it.
2. A soap and water solution can be sprayed on thecomponents in the system to form bubbles at thesource of the leak.
3. If a leak detector is used, move the leak detectorprobe under the hoses and around the connections
at a rate of 25 mm (1 in.) per second. RefrigerantR-12 is heavier than air so it will normally be underthe leak.
4. Some Freon manufacturers add dye to Freon to aidin leak detection.
90312515
TX,9031,RP600 –19–16SEP92–1/1
Refrigerant Hoses And Tubing Inspection
When a component is disconnected from the system,special care should be given to inspecting hoses andtubing for moisture, grease, dirt, rust, or other foreignmaterial. If such contamination is present in hoses,tubing, or fittings and cannot be removed by cleaning,then replace parts.
Fittings that have grease or dirt on them should bewiped clean with a cloth dampened with alcohol.Chlorinated solvents (such as trichloroethylene) arecontaminants, and must not be used for cleaning.
To assist in making leak-proof joints, use a smallamount of clean 525 viscosity refrigerant oil on all
hose and tube connections. Dip O-rings in 525 oilbefore assembling.
IMPORTANT: Hose used for air conditioningsystems contains special barriers inits walls to prevent migration ofrefrigerant gas.
DO NOT use hydraulic hoses asreplacement hoses in the airconditioning system. Use ONLYcertified hose meeting SAE J51brequirements.
