http://engine.od.ua
NOTE: This manual is divided into the following two main sections:
1. Checking Procedures
2. Testing And Adjusting
NOTE: As a general rule, if there is doubt as to the cause of a problem, the electronic system should be
checked first.
Reference: For information on Systems Operation of the above, make reference to: Engine And Pump
Electronic Control System, Systems Operation, Testing And Adjusting, SENR6155 and/or Systems
Operation, Hydraulic System, SENR6166 or SENR6294.
NOTE: The material in this module is intended to be used with the separate modules, "Electrical
Schematic", Form No. SENR6128, SENR8939 or SENR6144. "Starting And Charging System, System
Operation", and "Engine And Pump Electronic Control System, Systems Operation, Testing And
Adjusting", Form No. SENR6155.
This manual contains information on the troubleshooting procedures of the hydraulic system in the 5080
Front Shovel. For troubleshooting the engine components, refer to the module Systems Operation, Testing
And Adjusting for CAT 3406 ATAAC Diesel Engine, Form No. REGO1438.
In each checking procedure, it is assumed that the engine operation is normal unless otherwise specified.
The monitor and electronic controller are the main components of the electronic control system. The
monitor and electronic controller have a self diagnostic function. Self diagnostic checks of the monitor,
electronic controller, and the communication line between them are the first steps when troubleshooting
the problem(s) in the electronic system. For troubleshooting the electronic control systems, refer to the
module Engine And Pump Electronic Control System, Systems Operation, Testing And Adjusting, Form
No. SENR6155.
Action alarm indicators on the monitor panel, alert an operator to a problem in the electronic system. The
controller service program "Data Mode" can also be used to identify the problems. If the service program
is activated during machine operation, problem(s) that are monitored by the monitoring system are
1
indicated on the character display. If the service program is activated when the machine operation is
stopped, all existing problems and past problems (problems that have not been corrected) are indicated on
the character display. To activate the controller service program "Data Mode", refer to the module Engine
And Pump Electronic Control System, Systems Operation, Testing And Adjusting, Form No. SENR6155,
"Data Mode" section.
If the electronic power unit control system display indicates it is operating correctly, then do operational
tests. Operate the machine, following the procedures described in the section "Testing And Adjusting".
Compare the results of the operational tests with specifications to determine the extent of the trouble. In
operational tests, it is important to determine whether or not enough hydraulic force or implement speed is
a problem that extends over the entire machine or with only a specific operation.
If there are any faults in the circuits between the main or pilot pumps and the control valves, the overall
performance of the machine will decrease. This type of problem in the hydraulic system is not detected by
the self diagnostic functions of the electronic control system described above (no action alarm indication
on character display.). To detect such a problem, it is necessary to check the flow characteristics of the
pumps, the main relief pressure, pilot pressure, etc.

Swing Motor Performance Problem
To check the swing motor performance, measure the amount of swing motor case drain oil.
Swing Motor
(15) Drain hose.
NOTE: The maximum acceptable case drain oil with a swing relief pressure setting of 27 500 +490 -980
kPa (4500 +72 -140 psi) must be:
For a New swing motor ... 30 liter/min (7.9 U.S. gpm)
For a Rebuilt swing motor ... 34.5 liter/min (9.1 U.S. gpm)
(Hyd #7)
Travel Motor Performance Problem
To check the travel motor performance, measure the amount of case drain oil.
A visual inspection of the system is the first step when troubleshooting a problem. Make the inspection
with the engine off and the implements lowered to the ground.
1. Check the oil level in the hydraulic tank. Slowly loosen the hydraulic tank air vent plug and release the
pressure before the filler cap is removed.
2. Remove the filter element and check it for material that would give an indication of damage to a
component.
3. Inspect all lines and connections for damage or leaks.
4. Inspect control linkage for bent, broken, or damaged components.
The checks during operation can be used to find leakage in the system. They can also be used to find a
7
valve, pump, motor, or cylinder that is not working correctly. The speed of rod movement or the torque on
a motor can be used to check the condition of the cylinders, motors, and the pumps.
NOTE: For specifications given in Operational Tests, a NEW specification is the performance that can be
expected of a new machine. A REBUILD specification is the performance target to use after rebuilding
the components of a system. A machine that performs beyond SERVICE LIMIT specifications should be
checked for improper maintenance or adjustment, component wear, or failure.
Specifications given in charts are for a machine equipped with 4600 mm (15 ft) boom, 3500 mm (11 ft 5
in) stick and SAE 5.2 m3 (6-3/4 yd3) bucket.
NOTE: The power mode selector switch must be placed at Mode III position, unless otherwise specified,
during tests.
Test Preparation:
1. Travel test ground must be hard and as level as possible, and at least 25 m (82.5 ft) long.
2. Draw a 25 m (82.5 ft) straight line on the travel test ground as a reference line.

Automatic Travel Speed Control Valve (In Rear Of Main Control Valves)
(10) Locknut. (11) Screw.
1. While reading the pressure gauges connected to signal pressure line (4) and tap (1), slowly move the left
travel control lever to the FORWARD position. When system pressure at tap (1) reads 33 800 490 kPa
(4900 72 psi), the pressure gauge connected to signal pressure line (4) should be reduced to 0 kPa (0
psi).
NOTE: This pressure is indicated when the automatic travel speed change valve causes the travel motor
to shift to LOW speed.
2. If the pressure gauge connected to signal pressure line (4) does not read 0 kPa (0 psi) at the same time
the gauge at system pressure at tap (1) reads 33 800 490 kPa (4900 72 psi), then adjust the automatic
travel speed change valve as follows:
NOTE: Always make the final pressure adjustments during the pressure rise.
a. Loosen locknut (10) and turn screw (11) until the pressure gauge connected to signal pressure
line (4) reads 0 kPa (0 psi) when the pressure gauge at tap (1) reads 33 800 490 kPa (4900 72
psi).
NOTE: Turning screw (9) clockwise increases the pressure. Turning screw (9) counterclockwise
decreases the pressure.
b. Tighten locknut (10) to a torque of 16 1 Nm (12 1 lb ft).
3. Repeat Step 1.
4. Move the left travel control lever to the FULL FORWARD position and then slowly return it to the
NEUTRAL position until the reading of pressure gauge connected to tap (1) decreases to 12 300 490
kPa (1775 72 psi).
5. The pressure in the gauge connected to signal pressure line (4) reads 3450 kPa (500 psi).
NOTE: This pressure is indicated when the automatic travel speed change valve causes the travel motor
to shift to HIGH speed.

(3) Monitor. (4) Monitor panel.
NOTE: Before starting pump flow tests, be sure the action alarm indicators on controller (2) and monitor
panel (4) indicate Normal.
NOTE: If the operational tests (for example, cycle times) indicates that a slow implement problem is
common to the circuits of one pump, then the problem is most likely in the hydraulic system. Then the
"Pump Flow Test" should be made.
NOTE: If the operational tests indicate a implement speed problem common to both the pump circuits,
then the engine fuel or working altitude may be the problem.
