• Throttle relay (21) Terminal J1-22 and terminal J1-23 of the engine ECM monitor the
circuit across the throttle relay (21). The engine ECM uses this input
in order to determine the speed at which to operate the engine. The
machine ECM controls the coil of the throttle relay. When the
machine ECM determines that the throttle switch is in the LOW
IDLE position, the coil of the throttle relay is de-energized. When
the machine ECM determines that the throttle switch is in the HIGH
IDLE position, the ECM generates an output signal from terminal
A15. This signal energizes the coil of the throttle relay.

Terminal J2-48 of engine ECM (22) sends power to contact 2 of • Secondary speed and
secondary speed and timing sensor. Contact 1 of the sensor is timing sensor input
connected to terminal J2-49 of the engine ECM. During engine
operation, the secondary speed and timing sensor generates a series
of pulses as teeth on the camshaft gear pass the sensor. All but one of
the teeth are evenly spaced. When the tooth that is not evenly spaced
passes the sensor, the engine ECM establishes the position of the
number-one cylinder as well as the speed of the engine.
Terminal J2-58 of engine ECM (22) sends power to contact 2 of the • Primary speed and timing

SYSTEM OPERATION
• Wire color coding NOTE: This machine is wired according to the Caterpillar
corporate wiring system. In Caterpillar corporate wiring, each wire
has a color and a number. Each color and each number has a specific
meaning. Therefore, red wires are powered, black wires are
grounded, and orange wires are found in starting circuits. The
numbering system is as follows: 100 wires are power circuits; 200
wires are ground; 300 wires are machine basic circuits; 400 wires
are monitoring circuits; 500 wires are accessory circuits; 600 wires
are lighting circuits; and 700-999 wires are control circuits.

QESV1123-01
When the electrical disconnect switch is in the ON position, the • Power distribution
negative side of the batteries is connected to the frame ground. The
101-RD-00 wire transfers power from the batteries to the B-terminal
of the starter. The B-terminal of the starter acts as a junction block.
From the B-terminal of the starter, the 101-RD-10 wire transfers
power to the gate of the start relay, and the 101-RD-2 wire transfers
power to the main circuit breaker in the circuit breaker panel. The
alternator circuit breaker, which is also located in the circuit breaker
panel, is connected in parallel to the main circuit breaker.
Power transfers through the main circuit breaker and through the
alternator circuit breaker to a buss bar. This buss bar distributes
power to the main power relay and to a second buss bar. The second
buss bar transfers power to the following circuit breakers: CB3,
CB4, CB7, CB8, CB9, CB10.
The 105-BR wire transfers power from circuit breaker CB3 to the B-
contact of the engine start switch. The 150-RD wire transfers power
from circuit breaker CB7 to the following terminals of the engine
ECM: J1-48, J1-52, J1-53, J1-55.
When the start switch is moved to the ON position or to the START • Start switch ON
position, power is transferred from contact “B” to contact “R.”
From contact “R,” the 308-YL wire distributes power to the coil in
the main power relay and to terminal J1-70 of the engine ECM. The
coil of the main relay energizes, and the relay closes. When the main
power relay is closed, power transfers through the 112-PU-2 wire to
a third buss bar. This buss bar distributes power to the remaining
circuit breakers on the machine.
The engine ECM monitors the engine speed sensors in order to • Engine start logic
determine the speed of the engine. When the start switch is in the
ON position but the engine is not running, the engine ECM does not
receive a speed input signal from the engine speed sensors. The lack
of an input signal tells the engine ECM that the engine is not
running. The engine ECM transfers the engine speed information to
the machine ECM through the CAN Buss. When the engine is not
running, the machine ECM uses the engine start logic.

When the engine start switch is moved to the START position, • Engine start switch
power remains available at contact “R” of the switch and becomes START
available at contact “S” of the switch. From contact “S” of the start
switch, the 307-OR wire transfers power to contact 8 of the rotor
service switch. When the rotor service switch is in the OPERATE
position, power transfers into the 306-BR wire. This wire transfers
power to the 343-PK wire.
The 343-PK wire transfers power to the gate of the neutral start
relay. Power transfers across the gate of the relay; the start relay
energizes and power transfers to the S-terminal of the starter. When
power is available at the S-terminal of the starter, the starter cranks
the engine.
The engine ECM monitors the circuits at terminal J1-35 and • Ground-level shutoff
terminal J1-59 to determine the position of the ground-level shutoff switch
switch. The circuit at terminal J1-59 of the engine ECM is complete
when the switch is in the RUN position, and the circuit at terminal
J1-35 is complete when the switch is in the STOP position. When
the switch is in the STOP position, the engine ECM will not allow
fuel to be delivered to the engine. In this case, the starter can be used
to crank the engine, but the engine will not start.

INTRODUCTION
• Monitoring system The machine is equipped with an electronic monitoring system that
description continuously monitors machine systems. The monitoring system
contains switches, sensors, gauges, ECMs, and an electronic display
group. The monitoring system gathers input signals from switches
and sensors around the machine and exchanges information with
the engine and machine ECMs through Cat Data Link lines. The
electronic display group shows current operating conditions and can
be used to calibrate and configure select electrical components on
the machine.
• Warning levels The monitoring system provides three levels of warning. During a
level-one warning, a warning message is shown on the electronic
display group. A level-one warning alerts the operator to a specific
machine system operating condition.

temperature gauge (6) displays the hydraulic oil temperature in
Fahrenheit and in Celsius. The voltmeter (7) displays the output of
the electrical system is volts. The engine oil pressure gauge (8)
displays the engine oil pressure in pounds per square inch (psi) and
in kilo-Pascals (kPa). The fuel gauge (9) displays the level of fuel in
the tank.
The monitoring system controls the fault indicator (2). When the
monitoring system detects a level-two or a level-three fault in one of
the monitored circuits, the system generates an output signal from
terminal 37 of the 40-pin connector of the electronic display group.
This signal is cycled at a rate of 1 Hz. The signal causes the fault
indicator to flash.

OPERATOR CONTROLS
• Instrument panel The parking brake switch (1), load control switch (2), traction
control switch (3), and work mode switch (4) are located on the
right side of the instrument panel.
• Load control switch (2) The load control switch is a two-position toggle switch. The bottom
position of this switch is OFF, and the top position is ON. Circuit
breaker CB13 distributes power to contact 2 of the load control
switch. When this switch is in the ON position, an signal is sent to
terminal 6 of the 24-pin connector on the display control unit. The
display control unit transfers information to the machine ECM
through the CAN Bus.
66
QESV1123-01
When the machine ECM determines that the load control switch is
ON, the system initiates the load control logic. In this situation, the
ECM evaluates input about the state of the rotor, the engine RPM,
and the desired propulsion speed in order to calculate an underspeed
factor. The machine ECM uses the underspeed factor to adjust the
output signal to the EDCs on the propulsion pumps in order to
maintain optimum engine speed. When the load control logic is in
effect, the machine ECM will not allow the engine speed to be less
than 1750 RPM.
The traction control switch is a two-position toggle switch. The • Traction control switch (3)
bottom position of this switch is OFF, and the top position is ON.
Circuit breaker CB13 distributes power to contact 2 of the traction
control switch. When this switch is in the ON position, an signal is
sent to terminal 5 of the 24-pin connector on the display control
unit. The display control unit transfers information to the machine
ECM through the CAN Bus.
When the machine ECM determines that the traction control switch
is ON, the system initiates the differential control logic. In this
situation, the ECM evaluates input from the front steering sensor
and the propulsion control circuit in order to determine when to
engage the differential lock system.
The work mode switch is a two-position toggle switch. The bottom • Work mode switch (4)

Circuit breaker CB13 distributes power to contact 2 of the work
mode switch. When this switch is in the TRAVEL position, an signal

controls the speed of the machine.
• Component location The center position of the propulsion lever represents the
5. Speed dial NEUTRAL position. The locking collar on the propulsion lever
6. Propulsion lever must be lifted before the lever can be moved from the NEUTRAL
position. For forward travel, the operator must move the propulsion
lever toward the front of the machine. For reverse travel, the
operator must move the lever toward the rear of the machine. The
potential travel speed increases the farther the lever is moved away
from the center position.
The speed dial limits the maximum speed at which the machine will
travel for a given position of the propulsion lever. Maximum travel
speed is proportional to the position of the propulsion speed dial.
The farther the speed dial is rotated counterclockwise, the slower
the maximum travel speed. The farther the speed dial is rotated

against the EDC metering spool. The position of the EDC metering
spool determines the oil pressure which is in the pump servo piston
chambers. The position of the servo piston controls the angle of the
swashplate in the propulsion pump. System software prevents the
forward and reverse commands from being sent to the propulsion
pumps at the same time.
The forward circuits of the front and rear pumps and the reverse • Balance lines
circuits of the front and rear pumps are connected by balance lines.
Each balance line contains an orifice. The balance lines allow
makeup oil to transfer between the front and rear propulsion
circuits. This oil transfer modulates the pressure difference in the
front and rear propulsion circuits.

The pump input shaft turns the rotating group and the charge pump • Propulsion pump cross
when the engine is running. The rotating group is comprised of section
piston assemblies and a cylinder barrel. Charge oil flows through
internal passages to the charge relief valve. External lines carry
charge oil to the charge filter, and back to the propulsion pump.
Filtered charge oil re-enters the propulsion pump and flows to the
multifunction valves and flows to the EDC.
The EDC electric coils are mounted in a permanent magnetic frame, • EDC construction
with the armature mounted on a pivot and suspended in the
magnetic field.
When the machine ECM sends an output signal to the EDC, electric • EDC operation
current flows through the coils, and the ends of the armature
become magnetically biased as either north or south pole. This
causes the armature flapper to move toward one of the nozzles,
causing a pressure increase at that nozzle. The increased nozzle
pressure attempts to move the flapper back toward the center
position. When the armature flapper force equals the nozzle pressure
feedback force, the system reaches equilibrium.
Metered charge oil from the EDC metering spool acts against one • Servo piston and
side of the servo piston. The opposite side of the servo piston is swashplate
vented to the case drain. The pressure of the metered charge oil
against the servo piston causes the piston to move. This movement
tilts the swashplate and causes piston displacement in the rotating
group. As the swashplate tilts, the rotation of the pump generates oil
flow. Pump supply oil then flows through the propulsion motor. The
oil flowing through the motor causes the output shaft to rotate.
93
QESV1123-01
• Feedback linkage As the swashplate moves, the feedback linkage moves the barrel
feedback in the opposite direction of the EDC metering spool’s
original motion. The barrel feedback tends to move the EDC
metering spool back to neutral through an internal feedback spring.
This movement blocks the charge oil supply when a tilt angle which
is proportional to the signal from the machine ECM input signal is
reached. The feedback linkage prevents the servo from tilting the
swashplate too far.
• Multifunction valves Pump supply oil acts against the bottom multifunction valve. In the
high-pressure side of the loop, the multifunction valve acts as a
pressure limiter and a pressure relief valve. When pump supply
pressure reaches the pressure-limiter setting, the pressure limiter
opens. When the pressure limiter opens, pump supply oil is metered
to the end of the servo piston, which is open to the case drain. This
causes the pump to destroke and relieve the excessive load on the
propulsion system.

The spring chamber of the multifunction valve (right side of the • Low-pressure operation

of the makeup valve. The cartridge’s left spring chamber is filled
with charge oil.
Flushing and internal leakage cause pressure in the return side of the
closed circuit to decrease. This decrease causes charge pressure to
move the makeup valve to the left. The makeup valve contacts the
snap ring at the left end of the check valve. When circuit return
pressure is low enough, the makeup valve will continue to move left.
The makeup valve will eventually unseat the check valve. Charge oil
then flows into the circuit return side and replenishes the circuit.

• Multifunction valve cross In the high-pressure side of the propulsion circuit, the multifunction
section valve acts as a relief valve. High-pressure oil from this circuit does
the following:
• fills the spring chamber (on the right side of the valve cartridge)
• flows to the right end of the spool chamber through the clearance
between the spool and the housing.
When the pressure in the high side of the circuit becomes great
enough, the force acting against the right side of the spool will shift
the spool to the left. In this situation, oil is directed to the tank side
of the pump servo piston. The pump will then destroke.
NOTE: The pressure limiter can be adjusted when the small locknut
is loosened and the limiter adjusting screw is turned.

operate in the low-speed range.
• Motor operation Supply oil from the propulsion pump in the high-pressure circuit
enters the piston cavity in the cylinder block. The pump supply oil
forces the pistons to move out of the piston chamber. This

Discussion of the speed and direction control in the following and no shifting
paragraphs assumes that the load control system is OFF, the traction
control system is OFF, and the shift switch is stationary.
The machine ECM monitors the propulsion lever sensor and the
speed dial in order to determine the desired operating speed. The
propulsion lever sensor sends a pulse-width-modulated signal to
terminal B20 of the machine ECM. The duty cycle of the signal is
proportional to the position of the propulsion lever. The lowest duty
cycle of the signal corresponds to the full-REVERSE position of the
propulsion lever. The highest duty cycle corresponds to the full-
FORWARD position of the propulsion lever. The signal at the
midpoint of the range corresponds to the NEUTRAL position.
The rotor control switch provides input to the 40-pin connector of • Load control system
the control panel display. When the rotor control switch is in the
ON position, the circuit at terminal 15 of the 40-pin connector is
closed, and the circuit at terminal 16 of the 40-pin connector is
open. Input from the rotor control switch is transferred to the
machine ECM through the CAN lines. When the rotor control
switch is in the ON position, the machine ECM evaluates whether
the load control function should be activated.
109
QESV1123-01
While the machine is traveling with the load control function active,
the machine ECM evaluates the load factor on the engine. The
engine ECM provides this input to the machine ECM.
When the machine encounters a load which causes the engine speed
to fall below 1750-to-1800 RPM, the machine ECM decreases the
signal which is sent to the forward EDC. This action causes the
machine to slow. However, in this case, the engine speed remains at
the set parameter. As the load on the machine decreases, the machine
ECM gradually increases the signal to the forward EDC until the
signal to the EDC matches the settings of the propulsion lever and
speed dial.
• Shift control The shift switch provides input to terminal 4 of the 24-pin connector
of the control panel display. When the shift switch is in the TRAVEL
position, the circuit at terminal 4 is closed. Input from the shift
switch is transferred to the machine ECM through the CAN lines.
When the machine ECM determines that the operator has changed
the position of the shift switch, the ECM initiates the shift control
logic.

HYDRAULIC SCHEMATIC
When the engine is running, the propulsion pumps and the charge • Hydraulic schematic—
pumps rotate. The charge pumps draw oil from the tank through the NEUTRAL
suction manifold. Output oil from the charge pumps flows to the
charge relief valves and to the charge filters. After flowing through
the charge filters, charge oil flows to the multifunction valves and to
the EDCs.
The EDC contains a pressure control pilot valve and an EDC • EDC
metering spool. When the propulsion lever is in the NEUTRAL
position (or the machine ECM has disabled the propulsion lever),
the coils of the pressure control pilot valves are not energized. Under
these conditions, both ends of the EDC metering spools are open to
the case drain, and the center envelopes of the metering spools are
active. The EDC metering spools block charge oil. The spools also
open a passage between the propulsion pump’s servo pistons and the
pump case drain. The pump swashplate then moves to minimum
angle.
111
QESV1123-01
• Multifunction valves Charge oil that enters the multifunction valves seats the check valves
and acts against the makeup valves. Since the propulsion pump
rotates while the engine is running, normal leakage occurs in the
propulsion circuit. When pressure in the propulsion circuit falls
below charge pressure, the makeup valves open and the propulsion
circuit fills with charge oil.
When charge pressure increases to the relief setting, the charge relief
valves open. This action directs charge oil into the case drain of each
pump.
• Parking brake and shift The auxiliary hydraulic system controls the flow of oil to and from
cylinders the parking brake and the servo cylinders in the propulsion motors.
When the parking brake switch is in the ON position, the parking
brake solenoid on the auxiliary manifold is not energized.
Therefore, supply oil cannot flow to the parking brake cylinders,
and the parking brakes are engaged. When the work mode switch is
in the WORK position, the shift solenoid on the auxiliary manifold
is not energized. Therefore, supply oil cannot flow to the servo
pistons in the propulsion motors, and the machine operates in low
speed.
• Balance lines The forward circuits of the front and rear pumps and the reverse
circuits of the front and rear pumps are connected by balance lines.
Each balance line contains an orifice. The balance lines allow
makeup oil to transfer between the front and rear propulsion
circuits. This oil transfer modulates the pressure difference in the
front and rear propulsion circuits.

NOTE: The front propulsion circuit and the rear propulsion circuit • Hydraulic schematic—
are identical. The following description can be used to describe FORWARD, LOW SPEED
either circuit.
The normal working mode for all machines has the front propulsion
system operating with the propulsion lever in the FORWARD
direction, at LOW speed.
When the parking brake solenoid is energized, oil from the auxiliary • Parking brake release
pump is directed to the needle valve in the brake release manifold.
When the needle valve is open, oil flows through the pressure
reducing valve. The pressure reducing valve limits the pressure in the
parking brake cylinders to a maximum of 3800 ± 345 kPa (550 ± 50
psi).

QESV1123-01
• Pump control When the machine is traveling forward, the bottom envelope of the
pressure control pilot valve is active. The position of the pressure
control pilot valve is determined by the duty cycle of the signal that
is sent from the machine ECM. The machine ECM analyzes the
input signals to determine the magnitude of the output signal which
is sent to the pressure control pilot valve.
Charge pressure flows across the pressure control pilot valve and
acts against the top of the EDC metering spool. The EDC metering
spool moves down, and charge oil is metered across the spool to the
forward servo piston. The charge oil causes the forward servo piston
to shift. This shift changes the angle of the swashplate in the pump,
and the pump generates flow in the forward circuit.
• Forward circuit flow Forward circuit oil flows to the forward multifunction valve and to
the flow divider. Forward circuit oil in the forward multifunction
valve closes the makeup valve and acts against the pressure limiter
and the main relief valves. If pressure in the forward circuit reaches
34 450 ± 690 kPa (5000 ± 100 psi), the pressure limiter valve opens.
This action directs oil from the forward circuit to the reverse servo
piston. The oil in the reverse servo piston causes the pump to
destroke.
If the pressure in the reverse servo piston chamber is greater than the
charge pressure, the check valve in the end housing of the pump
opens, and the excess oil pressure in the reverse servo piston is
directed into the charge circuit.
When the traction control switch is in the OFF position, the flow
divider solenoid is de-energized. In this case, the flow divider spools
create an unrestricted path for supply oil to flow to the forward
ports of the propulsion motors.
• Reverse circuit flow Oil in the forward circuit causes the propulsion motors to turn.
After the motors are turned, the pressure of the oil is reduced. Oil at
a reduced pressure then enters the reverse circuit. Reverse circuit oil
flows to the reverse multifunction valve and back to the rotating
group in the propulsion pump, completing the drive circuit.
114
QESV1123-01
Since reverse circuit oil is at a lower pressure than forward circuit • Flushing valve
oil, forward circuit oil causes the flushing valves to shift. These shifts
allow oil from the reverse circuit to act on the flushing relief valves.
The flushing relief valves open, and 9.5 ± 1.9 L/min (2.5 ± 0.5 U.S.
gal/min) of oil from the reverse circuit is directed into the case drains
of the motors.
Reverse circuit oil acts against the makeup valve, the relief valve, • Reverse multifunction
and the pressure limiter valve in the reverse multifunction valve. As valve
the flushing valves remove oil from the reverse circuit, the pressure
in the reverse circuit decreases. When the pressure in the reverse
circuit is less than the pressure in the charge circuit, charge pressure
unseats the makeup valve, and flow from the charge pump enters the
reverse circuit. This action allows cool, filtered oil from the charge
circuit to flush the propulsion circuit.
When the work mode switch is in the LOW-SPEED position, the • Motor shift
shift cylinders in the propulsion motors are driven to the low-speed
position by the oil in the low-pressure side of the propulsion loop.
The high side of the servo piston chamber is open to the tank. The
motor swashplate moves to the maximum angle, and the motor
operates in the low-speed range.

• Hydraulic schematic— When the flow divider solenoid is energized, the solenoid causes
FORWARD, LOW SPEED charge oil to flow into the pilot circuit of the flow divider spools.
The flow divider spools move out. In this case, oil is forced to flow

equal volume of oil to the left propulsion motor and to the right
propulsion motor, regardless of the pressure demand of the

flows into the hydraulic tank through the return filter (5). The filter
housing contains a filter indicator (6) and a bypass valve. The filter
indicator shows whether the filter is plugged or needs to be serviced.
The filter is plugged if the filter indicator is in the red zone while the
engine is operating at high idle and the oil is at normal operating
temperature. If the pressure differential across the filter is greater
than 172.5 kPa (25 psi), the bypass valve opens, and return oil flows

circuit breaker CB15, and circuit breaker CB16.
159
QESV1123-01
• Circuit breaker CB12 The 119-PK wire transfers power from circuit breaker CB12 to the
following components: contact 2 of the rotor service switch, contact
3 of the rotor lift lock switch, pin “A” of the rotor depth sensor, pin
“A” of the front steering sensor, pin “A” of the rear steering sensor,
terminal A1 of the machine ECM, and terminal A18 of the machine

• Circuit breaker CB13 The 103-YL wire distributes power from circuit breaker CB13 to the
following components: terminal 10 of the 40-pin connector on the
electronic display group; contact 2 and contact 5 of the rotor mode
switch; contact 2 of the rotor depth set switch; contact A3, contact

• Circuit breaker CB14 The 183-GY wire distributes power from circuit breaker CB14 to
the following components: pin 2 of the seat switch, contact 2 of the
rotor hood tilt switch, contact 2 of the rear door switch, and contact
2 of the front door switch.
• Circuit breaker CB15 The 190-PK wire distributes power from circuit breaker CB15 to
contact A1 of the four-wheel steer control module.
• Circuit breaker CB16 The 146-GY wire distributes power from circuit breaker CB16 to
contact 5 of the rotor service switch.
• Automatic control The rotor mode switch provides input signals to the 40-pin
connector on the electronic display group. When the rotor mode
switch is in the TRAVEL position, the circuit at terminal 17 of the
40-pin connector is complete. When the rotor mode switch is in the
AUTO position, the circuit at terminal 26 of the 40-pin connector is
complete. When the rotor mode switch is in the MANUAL position,
no signal is sent to the machine control system.
The CAN lines transfer the input information about the rotor mode
switch from the electronic display group to the machine ECM.
When the machine ECM determines that the rotor mode switch is in
the AUTO position, the ECM automatically controls the rotor
depth.
160
QESV1123-01
When the rotor depth set switch is in the RESET position, the circuit
at terminal 9 of the 24-pin connector is complete. The CAN lines
transfer this information to the machine ECM. At this point, the
machine ECM records the signal from the rotor depth sensor as the
desired rotor depth. This value is stored in memory until one of the
following conditions occurs:
During machine operation, if the actual depth is less than the desired
depth, the machine ECM directs an output signal from terminal A13
to the rotor lower solenoid. The strength of this signal depends on
the height of the rotor. If the rotor is above the ground, the machine
ECM lowers the rotor at a high rate. As the rotor approaches the
ground, the machine ECM slows the rotor’s rate of descent. This
feature reduces the load on the engine, and also reduces the
bouncing of the machine when the rotor is lowered into the cut. The
point at which the rotor scratches the ground can be calibrated.
As the rotor lowers into the cut, the machine ECM continues to
monitor the signal from the rotor depth sensor. When the rotor
depth sensor indicates that the actual depth matches the desired
depth, the machine ECM discontinues the signal to the rotor lower
solenoid. At this point, the rotor holds the current position.
Likewise, if the actual depth is greater than the desired depth, the
machine ECM directs an output signal from terminal A14 to the
rotor raise solenoid.
The rotor depth switch can override the automatic rotor control.
The electronic display group monitors the position of the rotor
depth switch at terminal 1 and terminal 2 of the 24-pin connector.
The circuits at these terminals are normally open. If the circuit at
either terminal is closed, the machine ECM directs an output signal
to the appropriate rotor elevation solenoid. When the rotor depth
switch is returned to the HOLD position, automatic depth control
returns to the machine ECM.
161
QESV1123-01
• Travel When the rotor mode switch is moved to the TRAVEL position,
contacts 1 and 2 of the switch close. This action completes the
circuit at terminal 17 of the 40-pin connector of the electronic
display group. A complete circuit at this terminal prompts the
machine ECM to energize the rotor raise solenoid. When the signal
from the rotor depth sensor indicates that the rotor is at the preset
travel height, the machine ECM discontinues the signal to the rotor
raise solenoid.
The machine ECM monitors the input signals from the service lock
switch at terminal A4 and at terminal A10. The machine ECM uses
these input signals in order to determine if the rotor lift lock
mechanism is engaged. When the lift lock mechanism is engaged, the
machine ECM disables the travel and work modes of the rotor.
When the rotor mode switch is in the TRAVEL position, the rotor
lower function will not operate.
• Service When the rotor hood tilt switch is in the SERVICE position, contacts
2 and 3 of the switch are closed. Current from circuit breaker CB14
flows across the switch to the rotor hood raise solenoid. The current
energizes the solenoid, and the rotor hood moves into the service
position. The rotor hood remains in this position until the rotor
hood tilt switch is moved out of the SERVICE position.
NOTE: The engine will not run and the engine cannot be started
when the rotor service switch is in the SERVICE position. For
additional information, refer to “Power Distribution and Machine
Starting” in this presentation.

The steering mode switch provides input to the following terminals • Steering mode switch
of the 40-pin connector on the electronic display group: terminal 5,
terminal 6, and terminal 27. The machine ECM monitors the status
of the circuits at these terminals through the CAN lines. This
information is used in order to determine the position of the steering
mode switch.
NOTE: When the steering mode switch is in the REAR position, the

to terminal B21 of the machine ECM. The machine ECM uses these
input signals in order to determine the position of the wheels.
In the COORDINATED steering mode and in the CRAB steering • Coordinated and crab
mode, the machine ECM uses the signal from the front steering steering modes
sensor as a reference. When the steering wheel is moved, the
machine ECM senses the change in position of the front wheels. This
change prompts the machine ECM to energize the appropriate rear
steering solenoid.
The machine ECM controls the rear steering solenoids through the
four-wheel steer control module. The X755-WH wire carries the
signal from terminal B2 of the module to the right rear steering
solenoid. The X754-GN wire carries the signal from terminal B1 of
the module to the left rear steering solenoid.
When the front steering sensor indicates that front wheel movement
has stopped, and the rear steering sensor indicates that the rear
wheels have moved to the same degree as the front wheels, the
machine ECM discontinues the output to the rear steering solenoid.
The machine holds the current steering position until the steering
wheel is moved again.

• Front steering mode In the FRONT steering mode, the machine ECM uses the input from
the rear steering sensor in order to center the rear wheels. The
machine ECM holds the rear wheels in the calibrated, straight-travel
position, regardless of the position of the front wheels.
• Rear steering mode In the REAR steering mode, the front and rear wheels are controlled
independently. The steering wheel controls the position of the front
wheels, and the rear steering switch controls the position of the rear
wheels. The machine ECM monitors the input from the rear steering
switch in order to determine the desired travel direction. When the
rear steering switch is in the OFF position, the circuit at terminal 7
and the circuit at terminal 12 of the 40-pin connector on the
electronic display group are open. These open circuits tell the
machine ECM to hold the rear wheels in their current position.
Cab Slide
• Seat switch When the operator is not sitting in the seat, the seat switch is open.
Under these circumstances, the cab cannot be moved from side to
side. When the operator is sitting in the seat, the seat switch is
closed. In this case, the G985-PU wire transfers power to contact 2
of the cab slide switch.
When the cab slide switch is in the RIGHT position, contact 1 and
contact 2 of the switch are closed. In this case, the L802-BU wire
transfers power to the solenoid that allows the cab to move to the
right. When the cab slide switch is in the LEFT position, contact 2
and contact 3 of the switch are closed. In this case, the L803-OR
wire transfers power to the solenoid that allows the cab to move to
the left.

When the auxiliary hydraulic pump is at rest, the bias spring forces • Pump control
the swashplate to the maximum angle. When the engine is started,
the auxiliary hydraulic pump generates flow.
Pump supply oil acts on the pressure compensator spool. Supply oil
acts against the force of the spring. System pressure causes the
pressure compensator spool to shift. This shift directs oil into the
displacement piston cavity.
165
QESV1123-01
At this point, supply pressure decreases. The force from the pressure
compensator spring causes the pressure compensator spool to shift.
This shift opens the displacement piston cavity to the pump case
drain. In this case, the bias spring causes the swashplate angle to
increase.
• Oil distribution Output from the auxiliary pump is sent to the steering control unit
and to the P-port of the front auxiliary manifold. Inside the front
auxiliary manifold, supply oil is available at the shift valve, the
parking brake valve, the pressure reducing valve for the rotor brake,
and the sequence valve.
• Park brake sequence The sequence valve does not open until the supply pressure from the
valve auxiliary pump reaches 12 420 ± 690 kPa (1800 ± 100 psi). The
sequence valve ensures that a minimum of 12 420 ± 690 kPa (1800
± 100 psi) of oil pressure is available for the following operations:
From the brake sequence valve, oil flows to the remaining valves in
the front auxiliary manifold. Supply oil flows from the P1-port of
the front auxiliary manifold to the P-port of the rear auxiliary
manifold.
• Main relief valve The main relief valve is located in the front auxiliary manifold. This
relief valve limits the maximum pressure in the auxiliary system to
20 670 kPa (3000 psi). The relief valve is a backup for the relief
valve system in the auxiliary pump.
• Rotor hood tilt circuit During normal operation the rotor hood is in a “floating” condition.
Supply oil from the auxiliary pump flows through the pressure
reducing valve. This valve limits the pressure in the lines to the rotor
hood tilt cylinder to 9660 ± 345 kPa (1400 ± 50 psi).
166
QESV1123-01
From the pressure reducing valve, flow is directed to the rotor tilt
valve. This valve has a spring-centered control spool. With the
circuit in FLOAT, the center envelope of the valve is active. When
the rotor service switch is in the OPERATE position, the tilt lock
valve is energized. Under these conditions, supply oil is directed into
both ends of the rotor tilt cylinder. Since the effective area of the
head end of the cylinder is greater than the effective end of the rod
end of the cylinder, the cylinder rod extends and the hood remains
level.
When the machine is traveling straight, the steering control spool in • Straight travel

• Steering control unit When the steering wheel is turned, the metering pump also turns.
operation The metering pump directs flow through the spool of the steering
control valve and into the head end of the right steering cylinder and
the rod end of the left steering cylinder. Oil which flows into the
steering cylinders causes the machine to turn right. As the operator
turns the steering wheel faster, the metering pump increases the flow
to the steering cylinders. Therefore, the machine turns faster. Oil
from the rod end of the right steering cylinder and oil from the head
end of the left steering cylinder return to the tank through the
control spool.
• Rear wheel control The machine ECM monitors the position of the front wheels and
uses the input to control the position of the rear wheels. With the
steer mode switch in the COORDINATED position, as the front
wheels steer to the right, the machine ECM sends a signal to the left
rear steering solenoid.
When the left steering solenoid is energized, oil is metered across the
spool. This oil is then delivered to the inlet check valve, the shuttle
valve, and the counterbalance valve into the head end of the left
steering cylinder and the rod end of the right steering cylinder. As
pressure builds in the rod end of the right steering cylinder, the
cylinder retracts. As pressure builds in the head end of the left
steering cylinder, the rod extends. At this point the counterbalance
valve opens. The counterbalance valve allows oil from the head end
the right steering cylinder and the rod end of the left steering
cylinder to flow into the return line.
At the shuttle valve, pressure in the line to the cylinders shifts the
shuttle valve. This pressure then acts against the differential pressure
valve, in conjunction with the spring. The differential pressure valve
allows enough oil to flow across the steering proportional valve to
create a 1030 kPa (150 psi) pressure drop across the valve. Larger
proportional valve openings require more flow to create the same
pressure drop, resulting in faster steering cylinder speeds.
168
QESV1123-01
When oil is directed into the rod end of the rear steering cylinder, the
rear wheels turn to the left. When the front wheels stop turning, the
machine ECM discontinues the signal to the rear steering solenoid.
In this case, the rear wheels remain in the current tracking position
until the steering wheel is moved again.

• Rotor hood UP When the rotor tilt switch is in the UP position, the hood raise
solenoid is energized. In this situation, reduced pump supply oil is
directed into the rod end of the rotor tilt cylinder. The cylinder
retracts, and oil in the head end of the cylinder is directed into the
return line which is inside the front auxiliary manifold. An orifice in
the return line from the head end of the rotor tilt cylinder limits the
speed at which the rotor hood moves.
• Cab slide A pressure reducing valve limits the pressure which is available to
the cab slide cylinders to 6200 ± 170 kPa (900 ± 25 psi). When the
cab slide switch is actuated, the cab slide valve directs oil to the cab
slide cylinders. The lines to the cylinders contain pilot-opened check
valves. These valves ensure that the cab does not move unless
pressurized oil is directed into one end of the cab slide cylinders.

valve directs supply oil to the rod ends of the front door cylinders.

valves ensure that the front door does not move unless pressurized
oil is directed into one end of the front door cylinders. An orifice in
the return line from the head ends of the front door cylinders limits
the speed at which the front door moves.
When the rotor lift solenoid is energized, oil is delivered to the inlet • Rotor lift
check valve, the shuttle valve, and the counterbalance valve which is
in the line to the head ends of the rotor depth control cylinders. The
inlet check valve opens, and oil flows into the rod ends of the rotor
depth control cylinders. As pressure builds in the rod ends of the
rotor depth control cylinders, the cylinders retract. This action
causes the counterbalance valve to open. The counterbalance valve
allows oil from the head ends of the rotor depth cylinders to flow
into the return line.
At the shuttle valve, pressure in the line to the rod end of the rotor
depth control cylinders shifts the shuttle valve. This pressure acts
against the differential pressure valve, in conjunction with the
spring. The differential pressure valve allows enough oil to flow
across the rotor depth proportional valve to create a 345 kPa (50
psi) pressure drop across the valve. Larger proportional valve
openings require more flow to create the same pressure drop,
resulting in faster rotor-depth-cylinder speeds.

This cross-sectional view of the fan pump shows the major pump
components. When the fan pump is at rest, the bias spring forces the
swashplate to the maximum angle. Engine rotation turns the pump
input shaft, which then rotates the rotating group.
The rotating group contains a cylinder block and pistons. The piston
slipper pads allow the pistons to follow the angle of the swashplate.
As the slipper pads follow the angle of the swashplate, the pistons
move in and out of the cylinder block. As a piston moves out of the
cylinder block, oil from the hydraulic tank is drawn into the piston
chamber. As a piston moves into the cylinder block, oil is forced out
of the piston chamber.
Inside the pump control valve, supply oil flows to the bypass spool.
Holes in the bypass spool allow oil to fill the spring chamber. From
the spring chamber, oil flows to the control spool. The fan control
solenoid determines the position of the control spool.
As the control spool closes, the pressure which acts against the
bypass spool and in conjunction with the spring increases. The
bypass spools shifts, and the pressure in the displacement piston
cavity decreases. As the pressure in the piston cavity decreases, the
bias spring forces the displacement piston to move the swashplate in
the pump to a greater angle. The pump produces more flow, and the
speed of the fan motor increases.

module. After the machine ECM calculates the target fan speed, the
ECM prompts the fan control module to generate a pulse-width
modulated signal from terminal B1. The H746-YL wire transfers
this signal to the fan solenoid. The signal is inversely proportional to
the fan speed.

When the engine is operating, the fan pump generates flow. Pump • Oil distribution
supply oil is directed to the fan motor. Supply oil is also directed to
the fan control valve. Inside the fan motor, supply oil closes the
anticavitation check valve. Supply oil is also available at the inlet
port of the rotating group of the fan motor.
Inside the fan control valve, supply oil acts on the bypass spool and
flows through an orifice. Downstream from the orifice, supply oil
acts against the opposite side of the bypass spool, in conjunction
with a spring. Supply oil also flows to the fan control valve.
The fan control valve contains the cooling fan solenoid. The • Cooling fan solenoid
machine ECM evaluates the operating temperature of the machine
in order to determine how to control the fan solenoid. When the
operating temperature is low, the machine ECM sends the maximum
signal to the fan control solenoid. In this case, the fan control valve
opens a passage for supply oil to flow into the pump case drain.
191
QESV1123-01
As supply oil flows across the fan control valve, the bypass spool
shifts against the force of the spring. This shift directs oil into the
displacement piston cavity. Pressure in the displacement piston
cavity works against the bias spring. As the pressure in the
displacement cavity increases, the displacement piston moves the
swashplate to the minimum angle. In this case, the fan motor
operates at minimum speed.

• Temperature increase As the operating temperature of the machine increases, the machine
ECM decreases the strength of the signal which is sent to the cooling
fan solenoid. This action causes the fan control valve to close.
As the fan control valve closes, the pressure which acts against the
bypass spool and in conjunction with the spring increases. The
bypass spools shifts, and the pressure in the displacement piston
cavity decreases. As the pressure in the piston cavity decreases, the
bias spring forces the displacement piston to move the swashplate in
the pump to a greater angle. The pump produces more flow, and the
speed of the fan motor increases.
192
QESV1123-01
When the engine is stopped, the inertia of the fan blades and of the • Anticavitation check valve
rotating components in the fan motor cause the fan motor to
continue to turn for a brief period. Since the engine is not operating
during this time, the fan pump does not provide flow in order to
prevent motor cavitation. In this case, the anticavitation check valve
opens. The anticavitation check valve prevents motor cavitation by
allowing the fan motor to draw oil from the return line.

INTRODUCTION
• Machine general The rotor drive system consists of the following components:
information
• three-speed planetary transmission
• drive line
• rotor brake
194
QESV1123-01
The rotor hydraulic system provides the oil that engages the rotor
clutches. This system also circulates oil from the rotor transmission
through the hydraulic oil cooler. The internal components of the
rotor transmission are splash lubricated. The rotor transmission
housing acts as the reservoir for the rotor hydraulic system.
This section of the presentation is divided into various segments. • Section description
The segments show the location of the components which are part
of the rotor drive and rotor lubrication systems. The segments
contain a brief discussion on each of the components in these
systems.
The last two segments in this section explain the operation of the
electrical and hydraulic systems. Electrical and hydraulic schematics
are used in these segments in order to trace the current through the
electrical system and hydraulic oil through the hydraulic system.

MIXING CHAMBER
• Mixing chamber with The primary applications for the RM-500 are asphalt road
universal rotor reclamation and soil stabilization. In road reclamation, the rotor
cuts under the asphalt surface (4) and into the aggregate base (5).
The up-cutting action of the rotor fractures the asphalt and throws
the large pieces into the breaker bar (2) in order to further pulverize
the material. After the asphalt is pulverized, the asphalt and the
aggregate base are mixed in the mixing chamber (1). These two
components form an upgraded base material (6). The upgraded base
material is then redistributed on the road surface.
196
QESV1123-01
In soil stabilization, the rotor mixes the native soil with a chemical
additive in order to produce a more stable base material. The
universal rotor or the soil rotor can be used in this application. The
soil rotor is larger in diameter and cuts deeper than the universal
rotor. Because of the larger rotor and the consistency of the soil, the
breaker bar (2) must be removed when the soil rotor is in use.
NOTE: The rear door (7) and the front door (3) can also be opened
in order to reduce drag when the machine is operating in soft
material.

If the machine ECM determines that the operator has moved the • Rotor control logic
rotor control switch into the ON position while the rotor was not at
the travel height, the ECM invokes the rotor override logic. In this
case, the operator error light on the electronic display group will be
illuminated. The operator must raise the rotor to the travel height
and cycle the rotor control switch through the OFF position in order
to reset the system.
When the machine ECM determines that the operator has moved
the rotor control switch into the ON position with the engine at low
idle and the rotor at the travel height, the ECM will engage the rotor
using the following sequence. First, the machine ECM disengages
the rotor brake. Then, after a three-to-four-second delay, the
machine ECM engages the first gear solenoid, regardless of the
position of the rotor speed switch.
If the rotor speed switch is not in the 115 position when the machine
ECM engages the rotor, the ECM will advance the rotor
transmission to the selected rotor speed, as long as the engine
remains at low idle. The machine ECM will only allow the operator
to change the rotor speed when the engine is operating at low idle.
If the engine speed drops below 1400 RPM while the machine is
operating, the machine ECM stops the propulsion system. If the
engine speed remains less than 1400 RPM for two seconds, the
machine ECM will stop the rotor. If the machine ECM determines
that the rotor service switch is in the SERVICE position, the ECM
will not engage the rotor.

NOTE: A shear disc is the standard coupling mechanism between • Under machine
the rotor transmission and the rotor axle. On the standard machine,
the shear bolt will break if the rotor strikes an immovable object.
When the shear bolt is broken, the transmission is disconnected
from the rotor axle. The machine must be stopped for repair after
the shear bolt breaks.
The machine may be equipped with an optional torque limiter (2). • Component location
On these machines, power transfers from the rotor transmission to 1. Input flange of rotor
the optional torque limiter through a U-joint drive line. The torque axle
limiter bolts directly to the input flange (1) of the rotor axle. 2. Torque limiter
The torque limiter (2) is a friction joint, which is spring loaded. The
joint slips when the rotor encounters shock loads. The torque limiter
is self-resetting, so the machine does not need to be stopped for
repairs after the rotor encounters a shock load. The torque limiter
can withstand 6552 ± 1311 N•m (4818 ± 964 lb ft) of torque before
slipping. If the rotor strikes an immovable object, the torque limiter
can absorb enough energy to stall the engine.

• Electrical schematic— NOTE: The electrical system on this machine is wired according to
rotor drive system the Caterpillar corporate wiring system. In Caterpillar corporate
wiring, each wire has a color and a number, and each color and
number has a specific meaning. Red wires are positive; black wires
are negative; and orange wires are found in starting circuits. The

• Power distribution When the electrical disconnect switch is in the ON position, power
is available at the main circuit breaker. Power transfers from the
main circuit breaker to circuit breaker CB7. When the engine start
switch is in the ON position, the main power relay is energized.
When the main power relay is energized, power is distributed to

terminal 16 of the 40-pin connector on the electronic display group.
The electronic display group monitors the status of the circuit at
these terminals in order to determine the position of the rotor
control switch.
When the rotor control switch is in the OFF position, the circuit at
terminal 16 of the 40-pin connector on the electronic display group
is closed, and the circuit at terminal 17 of this connector is open.
The electronic display group broadcasts the position of the rotor
control switch to the machine ECM through the CAN Buss. When
the rotor control switch is in the OFF position, the machine ECM
does not energize the rotor brake solenoid, nor does the ECM
energize any of the rotor transmission solenoids.

• Rotor brake check When the rotor service switch is in the OPERATE position, contact
solenoid 4 and contact 5 of the switch are closed. In this case, the 958-YL
wire transfers power to the rotor brake check solenoid. The rotor
engagement parameters have no impact on the operation of the
rotor brake check solenoid. The rotor brake check solenoid is
energized during normal machine operation, regardless of the
condition of the rotor.
• Rotor engagement When the rotor control switch is in the ON position, the circuit at
parameters terminal 16 of the 40-pin connector on the electronic display group
is open, and the circuit at terminal 17 of this connector is closed.
This circuit status prompts the machine ECM to determine if the
rotor engagement parameters are met.
• The rotor control switch must have been in the OFF position when
the engine was started, or the system must have been reset after
the engine was started.
If the machine ECM determines that the rotor control switch was in
the ON position while the engine was started, the machine ECM
will not engage the rotor, and the system generates an operator error.
In order to clear the error and reset the system, the operator must
move the rotor control switch into the OFF position.
The engine ECM monitors the speed and timing sensors in order to
determine the speed of the engine. The engine ECM monitors the
primary engine speed and timing sensor at terminal J2-58 and
terminal J2-59. The engine ECM monitors the secondary engine
speed and timing sensor at terminal J2-48 and terminal J2-49. The
engine ECM converts the input signals from the engine speed and
timing sensors into an engine speed value. The machine ECM reads
the engine speed input across the CAN Buss.
If the engine speed is greater than the low-idle specification when the
rotor control switch is moved into the ON position, the machine
ECM will not engage the rotor, and the system generates an operator
error. In order to clear the error and reset the system, the operator
must move the rotor control switch into the OFF position. The
operator must return the engine to low idle before the rotor control
switch is moved back to the ON position.
238
QESV1123-01
If the machine ECM determines that the height of the rotor is less
than the service-height specification when the rotor service switch is
moved into the ON position, the machine ECM will not engage the
rotor, and the system generates an operator error. In order to clear
the error and reset the system, the operator must move the rotor
control switch into the OFF position. The operator must raise the
rotor to the travel height before the rotor control switch is moved
back to the ON position.
The machine ECM monitors the position of the rotor service switch
at terminal A21. When the rotor service switch is in the OPERATE
position, the 419-YL wire transfers an input signal to terminal A21
of the machine ECM. When the rotor service switch is in the
SERVICE position, the circuit at terminal A21 of the machine ECM
is open. If the machine ECM determines that the rotor service switch
is in the SERVICE position, the machine ECM will not engage the
rotor.
If the machine ECM determines that all rotor engagement • Rotor engagement
parameters are met, the ECM generates an output signal at terminal
A17. The 720-PU wire transfers this signal to the rotor brake
solenoid. After a three-to-four-second delay, the machine ECM
generates a second output signal. This signal originates from
terminal A9. The 921-WH wire transfers this signal to the number-
five solenoid.
The delay between the release of the brake and the engagement of
the rotor ensures that the rotor brake is completely released before
the rotor is engaged. The machine ECM always engages the rotor in
the lowest gear, regardless of the position of the rotor speed switch.
The electronic display group monitors the circuits at terminal 13 • Rotor speed control
and terminal 14 of the 40-pin connector in order to determine the
position of the rotor speed switch. The P716-WH wire connects
contact 1 of the rotor speed switch to terminal 13 of the 40-pin
connector on the electronic display group. The P718-BR wire
connects contact 6 of the rotor speed switch to terminal 14 of the
40-pin connector on the electronic display group.
239
QESV1123-01
When the rotor speed switch is in the 115 position, the circuit at
terminal 13 of the 40-pin connector on the electronic display group
is closed. In this case, the circuit at terminal 14 of the 40-pin
connector is open. When the rotor speed switch is in the 160
position, the circuit at terminal 13 and the circuit at terminal 14 of
the 40-pin connector are open. When the rotor speed switch is in the
215 position, the circuit at terminal 14 of the 40-pin connector is
closed, and the circuit at terminal 13 is open.
The machine ECM will only allow the operator to change the rotor
speed when the engine is operating at low idle. If the operator
attempts to change the rotor speed while the engine speed is greater
than low idle, the system generates an operator error. In this case,
the rotor speed remains constant. In order to reset the system, the
rotor speed switch must be returned to the position that matches the
current rotor speed.
When the rotor speed switch is in the 160 position, the machine
ECM directs an output signal from terminal A8 to the number-six
solenoid. When the rotor speed switch is in the 215 position, the
machine ECM directs an output signal from terminal A7 to the
number-three solenoid.
The machine ECM forces the rotor to shift in a sequence. Only one
shift can be made at a time. The machine ECM creates a time delay
between shifts. The upshift delay and the downshift delay are both
two-to-three seconds.
• Load control Terminal 6 of the 24-pin connector on the electronic display group
monitors the position of the load control switch. When the load
control switch is in the OFF position, the circuit at terminal 6 of the
24-pin connector is open. When the load control switch is in the ON
position, the circuit at terminal 6 of the 24-pin connector is closed.
When the load control system is ON, the machine ECM monitors
the engine speed. If the engine speed drops below 1400 RPM while
the machine is operating, the machine ECM stops the propulsion
system. If the engine speed remains less than 1400 RPM for two
seconds, the machine ECM will stop the rotor.
240

When the machine ECM determines that the rotor control switch is • Rotor disengagement
moved into the OFF position while the rotor is operating, the ECM
discontinues the signal to the currently energized clutch solenoid.
After a three-to-four-second delay, the machine ECM discontinues
the signal to the rotor brake. The delay allows the rotor to slow
before the brake is engaged.
The machine ECM will immediately disengage the rotor under • Failure modes
abnormal operating conditions. The following is a summary of the
failure modes which cause the ECM to disengage the rotor:
If the machine ECM determines that the input signals from the rotor
control switch are faulty, the ECM will not engage the rotor.
If the machine ECM determines that the circuit to the rotor brake
solenoid is open or the circuit contains a short to ground, the ECM
will not engage the rotor.
If the machine ECM determines that the circuit to any of the clutch
solenoids is either open or that one of the circuits contains a short to
ground, the ECM disengages the rotor.
If the machine ECM determines that the circuit to any of the clutch
solenoids contains a short to battery, the machine ECM immediately
sets the rotor brake.

• Hydraulic schematic— When the engine is operating, the rotor transmission pump draws
rotor disengaged oil from the rotor transmission sump, through a suction screen.
Supply oil from the pump flows to the rotor transmission relief valve
and to the rotor transmission filter. The transmission filter housing
contains a bypass valve. If the pressure differential across the filter is
greater than 345 kPa (50 psi), the bypass valve opens, and pump
supply oil flows directly to the rotor transmission control valve.
• Lubrication circuit The flow control valve divides the supply oil between the lube circuit

When the diverter solenoid, on the engine hood manifold is de- • Component location
energized and the accessory pump is operating, oil is directed to the 1. Accumulator
P-port of the brake release manifold. This oil flows to the 2. Diverter valve
accumulator (1), to the diverter valve (2), and to the pressure switch 3. Pressure switch
(3). 4. Needle valve
5. Pressure reducing
The accumulator (1) stores hydraulic pressure. The accumulator valve
maintains the pressure in the parking brake circuit or in the rotor 6. Pressure tap (G-port)
brake circuit when the brake has been manually released.
The diverter valve (2) is a simple gate valve. When the valve is
rotated fully counterclockwise, oil from the accessory pump is
directed to the parking brake circuit. When this valve is rotated fully
clockwise, oil from the accessory pump is directed to the rotor
brake.
The pressure switch (3) senses the pressure at the P-port of the brake
release manifold. This pressure switch is normally closed. The
pressure switch is in the ground circuit for the coil of the accessory
relay. When the pressure switch is closed, the accessory motor can
operate. When the pressure switch is open, the accessory motor
cannot operate. The pressure switch controls the cut-in and the cut-
out pressure for the accumulator-charging function.
The needle valve (4) must be closed in order to use the accessory
system to release the parking brakes. When the valve is rotated fully
clockwise, the valve is closed.
The pressure reducing valve (5) limits the pressure in the parking
brake circuit to a maximum of 3800 ± 345 kPa (550 ± 50 psi). Brake
release pressure can be measured at the pressure tap (6) which is
located in the G-port of the manifold.

• Engine hood LOWER When the hood actuation switch is in the LOWER position, power
transfers into the C890-BU wire and into the P993-OR wire. The
C890-BU wire transfers power to the hood lower solenoid. The
P993-OR wire transfers power to the diverter solenoid and to the
number-two diode. The hood lower solenoid and the diverter
solenoid remain energized until the hood actuation switch is
released from the LOWER position.
• Engine hood RAISE When the hood actuation switch is in the RAISE position, power
transfers into the C889-BR wire and into the P993-OR wire. The
C889-BR wire transfers power to the hood lift solenoid. The P993-
OR wire transfers power to the diverter solenoid and to the number-
two diode. The hood lift solenoid and the diverter solenoid remain
energized until the hood actuation switch is released from the RAISE
position.

• Hydraulic schematic, When the electric motor is operating, the accessory pump draws oil
accessory system from the hydraulic tank through a suction screen. The electric motor
operates the hydraulic pump. Supply oil from the pump flows
through the backflow check valve and is directed to the P-port of the
engine hood manifold.
Inside the engine hood manifold, supply oil acts against the relief
valve, and supply oil flows to the diverter solenoid. When the
diverter solenoid is energized, supply oil is directed through a check
valve. From the check valve, supply oil flows through an orifice and
through the pressure reducing valve. The pressure reducing valve
limits the downstream pressure to 5690 ± 345 kPa (825 ± 50 psi).
