ment. There is a hazard of gas, fire, or electrocution when carrying out welding, so never allow any unqualified
personnel to carry out welding.
BATTERY HANDLING
WARNING
Battery electrolyte contains sulphuric acid, and batter-
ies generate flammable hydrogen gas, which may
explode. Wrong handling can lead to serious injury or
fire. For this reason, always observe the following pre-
cautions.
z Do not let tools or other metal objects make any contact between the battery terminals. Do not leave tools or
other metal objects lying around near the battery.
z When disconnecting the battery terminals, wait for approx. one minute after activating the engine STOP switch
and be sure to disconnect the grounding terminal
(negative (-) terminal) first. Conversely, when connecting them, begin with the positive (+) terminal and then
the grounding (-) terminal. Make sure that all the terminals are connected securely.
z Flammable hydrogen gas is generated when the battery is charged, so remove the battery from the chassis,
take it to a well-ventilated place, and remove the battery caps before charging it.
48
PRECAUTION FOR MAINTENANCE SAFETY
WARNING
The hydraulic system is always under internal pressure. When inspecting or replacing piping or hoses,
always check that the pressure in the hydraulic circuit has been released. If the circuit is still under pres-
sure, it will lead to serious injury, so always do as follows.
z For details of the method of releasing the pressure, see the latest version of the Operation and Maintenance
Manual. If the circuit is still under pressure, do not carry out any inspection or replacement operation.
z If oil or fuel leaks from high-pressure hoses, it may cause fire or defective operation, which may lead to serious
injury. If any loose bolts are found, stop work and tighten to the specified torque. If any damaged hoses are
found, stop operations immediately and contact your Komatsu distributor.
Hydraulic hoses are subjected to natural aging. Hence, their usable lifetime is limited to maximum 6 years.
49
SAFETY PRECAUTION FOR MAINTENANCE
NOTICE
Hose lines considered as Safety Critical Parts have to be replaced earlier. Refer to the chapter "Lubrica-
tion and Maintenance Schedule" in the MAINTENANCE section of the Operation and Maintenance Manual
for further information.
CAUTION
The maximum permissible storage time of hydraulic hoses must be observed. This storage period is part
of the usable lifetime and must be considered when installing a new hose line. If, for example, a hose line
with a one year storage time is to be installed, the remaining service life of the hose line must be consid-
ered. All hose lines are marked with the date of production.
All hydraulic hoses of the Shovel have to be replaced when their service life has expired, even if there is no visible
damage. Refer to the chapter "Lubrication and Maintenance Schedule" in the MAINTENANCE section of the
Operation and Maintenance Manual for further information.
WARNING
Repairs on hydraulic hoses are not allowed. Use ONLY GENUINE Komatsu Mining Germany replacement
hose lines.
WARNING
Great care is to be taken when inspecting the hose lines. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can
cause serious injuries. Oil leaks can also cause fires. Ensure that there is no pressure in the system when
performing the inspection. Refer to chapter ’Relieving The Pressure In The Hydraulic System’ in the
"Operation" part of the Operation and Maintenance Manual.
Inspect all hoses, hose lines and fittings carefully during the course of the daily walk-around inspection. Check for
leaks and damages. Beware of pinhole leakages. Replace damaged parts without delay.
Some examples of faults on hydraulic hoses requiring replacement of the concerned part:
z Distortion of the hose line (strong deviation from the original shape) under pressurized and pressureless con-
ditions or when kinked or crushed, e.g. disintegration of hose layers or blistering.
z Leaks.
To ensure safety at all times when operating the machine, the user of the machine must always carry out periodic
maintenance. In addition, to further improve safety, the user should also carry out periodic replacement of the parts
given in the table. These parts are particularly closely connected to safety and fire prevention.
50
PRECAUTION FOR MAINTENANCE SAFETY
With these parts, the material changes as time passes, or they easily wear or deteriorate. However, it is difficult to
judge the condition of the parts simply by periodic maintenance, so they should always be replaced after a fixed
time has passed, regardless of their condition. This is necessary to ensure that they always maintain their function
completely.
However, if these parts show any abnormality before the replacement interval has passed, they should be repaired
or replaced immediately.
If the hose clamps show any deterioration, such as deformation or cracking, replace the clamps at the same time
as the hoses.
When replacing the hoses, always replace the O-rings, gaskets, and other such parts at the same time.
51
SAFETY PRECAUTION FOR MAINTENANCE
z When the engine is running and immediately after it is stopped, high voltage is generated inside the engine
controller and the engine injector.
WARNING
Danger of electrocution. Never touch the inside of the controller or the engine injector portion.
z The headlights also operates using high voltage. Never perform maintenance on the headlights.
z If it is necessary to touch the inside of the controller or the engine injector portion, or the headlight electrics

cles.
z When using compressed air to clean elements or the radiator, always wear safety glasses, dust mask, gloves,
and other protective equipment.
z Never drop or insert tools or other objects into the fan or fan belt. Parts may break or be sent flying.
53
SAFETY ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION FOR TROUBLESHOOTING AND ADJUSTMENTS
A hands-on approach to inspecting the hoses and pipes of the hydraulic system can only be made when the exca-
vator is shut down and there is no oil pressure in the hydraulic system.
WARNING
Do not use your hands during inspection or move in the vicinity of the hydraulic system’s piping or tubing
when the engine is running before checking for leaks, as hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can
cause serious injuries.
z Additional to the general personal protective clothing as described on page 23, full face protection and pene-
tration resistant clothing and gloves must be worn.
z Troubleshooting and adjustments may only be performed by personnel trained by Komatsu Mining Germany in
safe and correct hydraulic handling procedures.
z Before troubleshooting or adjustments, the inspection of areas of potential dangers for damages, leaks or
loose connections on the pressure lines and hydraulic components must be carried out visually only when the
engine is shutdown and when there is no hydraulic pressure in the system.
z When the machine is running, the areas of potential danger can only be entered when no leakages or other
irregularities have been noticed when the high pressure oil circulation has been brought up to maximum pres-
sure from a safe distance (operator’s cab, machinery house roof, ladder platform).
To prevent injury, do not carry out adjustments with the engine running. If work must be carried out with the engine
running, perform the task with, at maximum, two maintenance workers and an operator and do as follows.

Open the lock, lift the harness by the catch hook (C), ensuring the leg straps hang below (J). Pull the harness over
the shoulders as you would a jacket. Insert the end of the belly strap (E) through the buckle and tighten securely,
as shown in the illustration (Z 25898).
Prevent the shoulder straps from slipping by fastening the breast strap. Pull the leg straps (J) between the legs
and securely buckle them at the front as illustrated. Adjust the harness so that it snugly fits the body ensuring that
the catching hook (C) is in the center of the back.
The safety harness is a personal accessory and should only belong to its owner.
The safety harness should only be used together with connectors acc. to EN 354, and fall arrest acc. to EN 355, or
fall protection devices acc. to EN 360.
The attachment point for the safety harness should be above the wearer, and the carrying capacity of the attach-
ment point should be sufficient to correspond with the minimum carrying capacity acc. to EN 795.

z Carry out a visual check of the system or component; correct functioning and perfect working order have to be
assured.
z Make sure that the recommendations for use with other components of the system be observed in conformity
with the instructions for use.
The system or component must no longer be used, if there are any doubts in respect of its safe condition. The
equipment has to be inspected by the manufacturer or by a qualified person.
It is essential for safety reasons that a fall protection system or system component which has already been sub-
jected to fall be removed from service and sent back to the manufacturer or an authorized qualified repair shop for
maintenance and renewed testing.
Fall protection systems have to be treated with care and to be kept clean and ready for use. It has to be warned
against bringing the systems into contact with acids or other caustic liquids and gases, oils, detergents, or sharp-
edged objects.
Should the harness have become wet during use or cleaning, do not dry near a fire or other sources of heat, but
rather in a natural way in not too warm rooms. Keep the harness freely suspended or loosely rolled up.
When using the fall protection systems, the pertaining safety regulations in force and the "Rules for Use of Per-
sonal Fall Arrest Systems" have to be observed for protection against danger.
At least every 12 months, the safety harness and its components have to be inspected by a competent person
authorized by the manufacturer and maintained, if the manufacturer considers it necessary.
During the holding function, the connectors may only be placed around a mast or other construction between the
two holding hooks, so that free fall is limited to max. 0.5 m.
It should be strictly seen to it that the connector be not slung around constructions with too small diameter or sharp
edges.
With the lateral holding hooks, work may only be carried out on horizontal or almost horizontal surfaces (roofs).
The connectors have to be adjusted in such a way that the area, where danger of falling down prevails, cannot be
reached.

Use
Within a fall-arrest system, the strap-type fall absorber (2) has to be used in conjunction with a safety harness (1)
acc. to DIN EN 361. The maximum length including the safety rope must not exceed 2.0 m. For longer ropes, a
rope-shortening device has to be applied in addition.
Fix the rope to the attachment point and attach the strap-type fall absorber to the catching hook in the back of the
safety harness. The attachment point should be above the wearer and its minimum carrying capacity should be 10
KN, acc. to DIN EN 795.
The strap-type fall absorber and the safety rope must not be damaged, e.g. never pull
them over sharp edges nor get them burnt by welding sparks.
The strap-type fall absorber has to be kept dry in an airy and shady room. It must not be ex-posed to acids, caustic
chemicals, nor to an aggressive atmosphere, and contact with oils has to be avoided. If the strap-type fall absorber
is dirty, it may be cleaned with a little water and a light-duty detergent. Dry it in a shady place (nowhere near fire or
other sources of heat). Protect it from sharp-edged objects.
Inspection
Prior to use, all parts have to be inspected for safe condition and damages. At least once a year, the strap-type fall
absorber has to be tested by a competent person. A damaged or used strap-type fall absorber has to be removed
from service immediately. The strap-type fall absorber must not be changed in any way.

OPERATION
• Avoid engine idling over long periods. Long periods of idling, more than 10 minutes,
will not only waste fuel, but is also harmful to the engine.
• Avoid operation against the main relief valves of the hydraulic system. Move control
lever to neutral position before the loader attachment stalls due to overload.
• Position trucks in such a way, that loading operation can be carried out in a safe and
economic manner. Avoid swing angles over 90°.

3. Do not sling a heavy load with one rope alone, but sling with two or more
ropes symmetrically wound on to the load.
• Slinging with one rope may cause turning of the load during hoisting,
untwisting of the rope, or slipping of the rope from its original
winding position on the load, which can result in a dangerous
accident.
4. Do not sling a heavy load with ropes forming a wide hanging angle from the
hook. When hoisting a load with two or more ropes, the force subjected to
each rope will increase with the hanging angles. The table below shows the
variation of allowable load (kg) when hoisting is made with two ropes, each of
which is allowed to sling up to 1000 kg vertically, at various hanging angles.
When two ropes sling a load vertically, up to 2000 kg of total weight can be
suspended. This weight becomes 1000 kg when two ropes make a 120°
hanging angle. On the other hand, two ropes are subject to an excessive force
as large as 4000 kg if they sling a 2000 kg load at a lifting angle of 150.

2.1 Coupling
Design:
VULASTIC-L – coupling type are provided with one flexible rubber element
(4). The flexible ring connect the input drive hub (1) via the coupling ring (8)
with the output drive flange (2) of the coupling.
Function:
The high flexible VLULASTIC–L coupling transfers the torque without any
rotational gap. They are wear-resisting and maintenance free. Because of
symmetrical arrangement of the flexible rings, there are no returning forces
either by the torque transfer or the centrifugal forces.
VULASTIC-L couplings dampen rotating vibrations, reducing same by
partial storing of the shock energy and damp noises.
The coupling allows in an acceptable range axial, radial and angular
misalignment of the shafts.
Replacement and alignment refer to Parts & Service News AH01523, last
edition.

All drive shaft housings are filled with the same gear oil as the pump
distributor gear.
Function:
M If the oil level increases the oil drops out of the breather pipe (1).
If this oil is gear oil it indicates a possible leak at the gearbox side.
If the oil is a mixture of gear oil and hydraulic oil it shows a possible
leak at the pump side.
If at an oil level check a loss of oil is found it may be due to worn or
defective radial seal rings.
Function:
A The oil is filled in via the oil collector reservoir (2). All auxiliary drive
shaft housings are connected by pipes with the reservoir. The reservoir
is filled approx. one half with oil.
If the oil level in the reservoir increases due to leakage the oil drops out
from the breather filter (with oil level gauge) on top of the reservoir.
Now a check has to be done to find out which one of the drive shafts
seals is damaged.
It can be done by disconnecting temporary the pipe to the reservoir.
Disconnect the pipe at the drive shaft housing, plug the pipe and leave
the union open.
If now at operation the oil still comes out of the union, this drive shaft
seal is gone.
Otherwise check sequential all auxiliary drives.

Function:
Pump (8.1)/(8.4) forces the gear oil from the gear oil pan through filter
(69.1)/(69.2)) to pressure relief valve (74.1/74.2). This pressure relief valve
acts as a back pressure valve causing that most of the oil passes through the
gear oil coolers (105.3+105.4)/(105.1+105.2).
The gear oil coolers are a small part of the hydraulic oil coolers, thus the gear
oil gets cooled by the same air stream as the hydraulic oil. From the coolers
the oil flows to the port (P) of the gear and internally via a system of pipes to
the several spray nozzles. The spray nozzles in the gear case ensure proper
and adequate distribution of the lube oil. The circuit is monitored by the
pressure switches (B17-1). At too low lube oil pressure (0.5 bar), a fault
message will be displayed on the monitor at the dash board.
The gear oil temperature is monitored by the sensor unit (B49-1) (B49-2). At too
high oil temperature a fault message will be displayed on the monitor at the dash
board.
If the oil temperature is to low, solenoid valve (Y53-1) (Y53-2) energised and
opened port X of the pressure relive valve (74.1) (74.2). This reduced the relieve
valve pressure setting. The main gear oil flow direct back to the PTO to quick
warm up of the gear oil.

Task:
The strainer is installed to prevent the hydraulic oil coolers from getting
clogged up in case of contamination in the main return oil circuit.
Excessive increase of the hydraulic oil temperature can be an indication for a
restricted strainer, i.e. bad cooling performance due to insufficient oil flow
through the coolers.
In case that main components such as cylinders or motors are internal
fragmentary damaged, the strainer should be inspected for metal chips.

Task:
The back pressure valve has to fulfill two functions in the hydraulic system:
1. To ensure a sufficient pressure within the return oil circuit, i.e. to supply
oil via the anticavitaton valves to the low pressure side of cylinders,
respectively motors.
2. To force the return oil through the coolers depending on the present
hydraulic oil temperature, controlled by solenoid valve Y101.
- Low temperature ⇒ low volume through the coolers
- High temperature ⇒ high volume through the coolers

General
With the transfer pump it is possible to evacuate the suction oil reservoir, the oil
cooler and the return oil line as well as the back-pressure valve pipe. This is
required if the respective line must be opened for servicing or maintenance. It is

4.1 General
The hydraulic oil cooling system maintains the hydraulic oil at a normal
operating temperature.
Design:
There are four hydraulic oil coolers in front of the hydraulic tank on the R.H.
side of the platform.
They are in pairs mounted in one frame, one above the other. The air stream
needed for the cooling is produced by hydraulic driven fans. The air flows
from inside to outside through the coolers.
For a better cleaning, the coolers can be moved to the side. (“Swing out
cooler”)
The bearing group carrier is filled with oil to lubricate the bearings.

Hydraulic Oil Cooling Section 4.0
Page 3
Function:
The returning oil from the system flows via the lines (L6 - L7) into the
collector tube (114). On the top of it is the Back Pressure Valve (115)
installed.
The back pressure valve (115) causes a back pressure which forces most of
the relative hot oil through the lines (H) to the cooler (106.1-106.4).
On its flow through the cooler the hydraulic oil gets cooled and flows than
through the restrictors (107.1-107.4) and the lines (C) into the filter chamber
of the main oil reservoir (41).
The restrictors are acting like shock absorbers to prevent cooler cracking at
pressure peaks.
Besides the back pressure valve acts as an oil flow control valve as far as the
oil temperature has not reached its steady temperature.
During the warm up period (1/2 Qmax) the back pressure valve (115) is wide
open, because solenoid valve Y101 is energized, which results in less oil
flows through the cooler which causes that the oil gets quicker its optimum
operating temperature.
With increasing oil temperature the oil gets thinner, so that the main pumps
can be shifted to Qmax position and simultaneously solenoid valve Y101 will
be de-energized, so that the valve piston will be more closed by the force of
the spring thus that more oil passes the cooler.

Function:
From pump (10.x) flows the oil through the filter (68.x) to the fan motor (22.x) and
then back to the tank.
The check valve (103.x) act as an anti cavitation valve and is installed, because the
fan motor -driven by inertial force- is running for a short period after the oil flow is
interrupted by solenoid valve (Y6A-x/Y6B-x) or if the motor has been switched off.
The hydraulic circuit "Fan drive" is secured by the pilot controlled pressure relief
valves (168.x) and (169.x).
These valves are working together with the solenoid valve (Y6A-x/Y6B-x),
controlled by the PLC, depending on the hydraulic oil temperature:
• With de-energized solenoids Y6A-x and Y6B-x the relief valve (168.x) is
functioning and the fans are running with max. adjusted speed (1300 RPM)
• With solenoid Y6A-x energized the relief valve (168.x) is not functioning and
the fans are running with a very low speed caused by the flow resistance only.
• With solenoid Y6b energized the relief valve (169.x) is controlling the relief
valve (168.x) and the fans are running with 1000 RPM RPM only.

Function:
Pressure in line A affects the main piston (7). At the same time there is pressure
via the jet bore (6) on the spring-loaded side of the main piston and via jet bore (5)
at the pilot poppet (9) of the relief valve cartridge (1).
If system pressure in line A exceeds the value set at the spring (2), pilot poppet (9)
opens. The signal for this comes from line A via the jet bores (6) and (5).
The oil on the spring-loaded side of the main piston (7) now flows via the jet bore
(5) and poppet (9) into the spring chamber (3).
From here it is fed internally by means of the control line (Y) to tank (port B).
Due to the state of equilibrium at the main piston (7), oil flows from line A to line
B, while the set operating pressure is maintained.
The pressure relief valve can be changed (Remote controlled) by means of the
port "X" and the function of the solenoid valve Y6A-x / Y6B-x and pressure
reduction valve 169.x. .( Function see next page)

Function:
With de-energized solenoids (Y6A-x and Y6B-x), the spool (3) of the 4/3
direction flow valve 148.x keeps the "X" connection of valve (168.x) and port
“B“ to port “P“ closed. The pressure relief valve (168.x) operates normal with
the max. adjusted pressure. The fan turn with maximum speed.
The energized solenoid Y6B, operate the spool (3) of the 4/3 direction flow
valve 148.x and a connection is made between port “P“ , port “B“ and port "X"
of valve (168.x)
The system pressure now opens main piston (7) of valve (168.x), because via
solenoid Y6B (P to B) the oil from the rear side of piston (7) flows from the
"X"-port to the “P“ port of valve (169.x). This valve (169.x) reduce now the
max. adjusted pressure of valve (168.x) to a lower value. The fan turn with
reduced speed.
The energized solenoid Y6A, operate the spool (3) of the 4/3 direction flow
valve (148.x) and a connection is made between port “P“ and port “A” and port
"X" of relief valve (168.x).
The system pressure now opens the main piston (7) of valve (168.x) because
via the "X"-port the oil from the rear side of piston (7) flows to tank. The
normal relief valve function is eliminated. The fan turn with minimum speed,
nearly stand still.

Description.
Pump type A7F0 is a variable displacement pump, designed to operate in open
circuits. It has an internal case drain return. The rotary group is a robust self
aspirating unit. External forces may be applied to the drive shaft.
Changing the swivel angle of the rotary group is achieved by sliding the
control lens along a cylindrical formed track by means of an adjusting screw.
• With an increase in the swivel angel, the pump output increase together
with necessary drive torque.
• With an decrease in the swivel angel, the pump output decreases together
with the necessary drive torque.

The pumps (7.1 / 7.2) forcing the oil through the filter (68.1) to all involved
valves.
The pressure accumulator ensures that under any circumstances enough pilot
pressure oil is available. The accumulator (85) is also functioning as a
hydraulic battery for a certain time when the motor was shut down or to
pressure relive the system for repair works.
When the operator is using his controls an electrical signal causes energizing
of the selected solenoid valve of the remote control valves(14).
By the function of the remote control valves pilot pressure oil is send to the
relevant control block spools which in turn allows operating hydraulic oil to
the users.

Function:
The pilot pressure oil flows via line (PX2) to port (P) of each remote control
block and is present via a gallery at all proportional and directional solenoid
valves.
These solenoid valves are energized by the function of the Electro
proportional controls (Joy sticks or pedals) and direct the pilot pressure oil to
the respective spools of the main control blocks with a variable pilot pressure
proportional to the deflection of the controls.

Function:
The electric-hydraulic control system is used to control the direction and
volume of oil flow to the operating cylinders and motors via the control valve
blocks.
Hydraulically:
The oil volume of pump (1) flows through filter (2) into the pilot pressure
system. The pressure is limited by the pressure relief valve (3).
With the pressurized oil stored in accumulator (5), a limited number of spool
movements can be carried out with the motors at standstill.
When a lever (or pedal) is actuated, proportional solenoid valve (8) and one
of the directional solenoid valves (either 6 or 7) are energized, and allows the
pilot pressure oil to flow to the spools of the control blocks.
Electrical
Whenever a lever or a pedal is moved out of its neutral position, an amplifier
will created a current between 0 and 1000 mA. (For detailed information refer
to page 10 in this section)
Depending on the lever direction, simultaneously one of the directional
solenoid valves (either 6 or 7) is energized.
The proportional solenoid valve alters the pilot pressure, proportional to the
lever deflection, this results a spool movement between neutral and full
stroke position.

General Function
Control lever (1) is supplied with 24 VDC battery voltage for the switch contacts
and for the internal electronics to create the signal voltage.
When moving lever (1) out of its neutral position, 24 VDC battery voltage arrives
at relay (5) and energizes the Proportional Amplifier (4) with capacitor
supported 24 VDC via terminal 1.
Depending on the function of the control lever, 1 to 4 Amplifiers can be involved
for the „Y-axis“ (forward/ backwards direction) and 1 to 4 Amplifiers for the „X-
axis“ (left/right direction.)
The polarity of the Output Signal from joystick (1), either positive or negative,
between 0 and 10 VDC indicates the direction of the lever movement and is
proportional to the lever deflection. This is the Input Signal to the ramp time
module (3) at terminal 5 which will arrive after the adjusted ramp time delay via
terminal 7 to the proportional amplifier (4) at terminal 5.
This Input Signal (between 0 and 10 VDC) is amplified to an Output Signal
between 0 to 1000 mA and is simultaneously send via terminal 7 (negative) or
terminal 8 (positive) to the Proportional Solenoid valve (6) and to the
Directional solenoid valve (7) via terminal 3 (negative) or terminal 9 (positive)
to the “a” or “b”-side.
The proportional Solenoid valve (6) alters the pilot pressure (“X2”) of 35 bar to a
value proportional to the Current Signal.
This pressure controls the movement of the control block spool (8) between
neutral and full stroke position.

In order to be able to monitor the direction of the lever movement and the
neutral position, the electronics (8) sends a 24V signal as soon as the lever
gets moved out of its neutral position.
For one axis are used two inductive linear transmitter (3). The motion of the
coil core (9) connected to the push pin (6) causes a variation of the induction
in the coils (10). The electronics convert this inductive signal into a
proportional output signal of –10...0...+10 V for the amplifiers.
The electronic part of the lever is equipped with a internal fault detector. In
case of a internal electronic fault the electronic send a 24V signal to the test
output. The test input is used for a lever system check before motor start. The
inductive system is designed as a redundant system with two separate coils.

The amplifier module is snapped onto mounting rails inside the X2-box.
The amplifier module contains the necessary electronics for the control of
two proportional solenoids. Depending on the input polarity, either solenoid
A or solenoid B is operated.
The solenoid current (solenoid A - solenoid B) is measured and compared
with the external input value. Differences between feed-back and input
values, for example caused by changes in solenoid temperature or supply
voltage, are compensated.
The module also generates a direction-dependent voltage signal (solenoid A -
solenoid B) as soon as the solenoid current reaches the lowest set value.
The lowest and highest values are set externally via the potentiometer R1 + R2.
The brightness of the LED's changes with the current.

The amplifier module is snapped onto mounting rails inside the X2-box.
The amplifier module contains the necessary electronics for the control of
two proportional solenoids and two directional solenoids. The outputs for
proportional solenoids Ax and Bx and the switched outputs As and Bs are
activated by connecting a minimum of approx. 10 % signal voltage at the
amplifier input.
A positive signal voltage controls outputs A, a negative signal voltage
controls output B.
A signal voltage of approx. 10% with respect to +/- 10 V input voltage at the
amplifier, produces a stepped output voltage. The height of this 10% jump
may be set separately for proportional outputs Ax and Bx via external
potentiometer. As the signal voltage rises the solenoid current for the
proportional outputs increases linearly.
A further step in output current occurs at approx. 90% signal voltage.
The maximum current or the 90% jump may be set separately for outputs Ax
and Bx via external potentiometers and hence the gradient of the output curve
may be influenced.
LED’s indicate the current output to each proportional and switched output,
whereby the brightness is approx. proportional to the solenoid current in Ax
and Bx. This function should not be used for setting.
A Ramp Time function is included in the amplifier which may be externally
changed by a set potentiometer. The setting range for the ramp time is
approx. from 80 ms to 1s. The time setting applies to both up and down
ramps and to both proportional solenoids.
A fault is indicated by the LED „Fault“.

the amplifier module to be set.
2. Open* the respective separating terminal (T2) between the amplifier module
to be set and the proportional solenoid valve.
3. Disconnect the wire from terminal five.
4. Connect the positive output of the service module with terminal five of the

power LED and simultaneously LED A(+) or B(-) lights up, depending on
the polarity.
8. Turn the potentiometer (P) of the Service-Module until the multimeter
shows 1 VDC (it may be either positive or negative); the multimeter for the
current reading will show a value which should correspond to the value
giving in the electric circuit diagram (see page adjustments of amplifier and
time ramp modul) e.g. 330 mA. (The first step (10 %) value)
If necessary correct the value with potentiometer (10%).
9. Turn the potentiometer (P) of the Service-Module further until the
multimeter shows 9 VDC; the multimeter for the current reading will show
a value which should correspond to the value giving in the circuit diagram
e.g. 570 mA. (The second step (90 %) value).
If necessary correct the value with potentiometer (J2).

of the oil flow.
The extra holes (fixed throttle 9.2) prevents the valve from becoming

Function:
The electric-hydraulic control system is used to control the direction and
volume of oil flow to the operating cylinders and motors via the main control
valve blocks.
When a lever (or pedal) is actuated, a proportional solenoid valve (5) and one
of the directional solenoid valves (3 either Ax or Bx) are energized, and
allows the pilot pressure oil to flow to the spools of the main control blocks.
The proportional solenoid valve alters the pilot pressure, proportional to the
lever deflection, this results a spool movement between neutral and full
stroke position.

Function:
In un-operated condition the control spool (3) is held in the neutral or
starting position by the reset springs (4). Operation of the control spool is by
means of oil immersed solenoids (2).
The force of the solenoid (2) acts via the plunger (5) on the control spool (3)
and pushes its from its resting position into the required end position. This
results in the required free flow from P to A and B to T or from P to B and
A to T.
When the solenoid (2) is de-energised, the control spool (3) is returned to its
original position by the reset springs (4).

Function:
In un-operated condition the control spool (2) is held in the neutral or starting
position by reset springs.
The control spool (2) is directly operated by the proportional solenoid (1).
If the solenoid is energized, it produces a force to operate the control spool (2) via
the pressure measuring spool (4) and moves the spool to the left. Oil flows from P
to A. As pressure in A increases, it passes via the radial borings in the control
spool (2) to the inner end of the pressure measuring spool (2).
The force generated by the pressure now works against the solenoid force and
pushes the control spool (2) to the right (closing direction) until a balance is
achieved between the two forces. In order to achieve this, the pressure measuring
spool (2) moves to the left until it is supported by the pin (5).
When the force balance is achieved, the connection between P and A is interrupted
and the pressure in line A is held constant.
Any reduction in the solenoid force leads to the pressure force exceeding the
solenoid force on the control spool (2). The control spool is then moved to the right
causing a connection from A to T allowing the pressure to fall until a balance is re-
established at a lower level.
At rest, when the solenoid is de-energized, ports A and B are open to tank, whilst
port P is blocked from both ports A and B.

High-pressure in-line filters prevent contamination from entering the
hydraulic circuits. The high pressure filters are installed between the main
hydraulic pumps and main control blocks. All hydraulic components, behind
the pumps, are effectively protected from damage and undue wear. Each filter
is equipped with a differential pressure switch to monitor the filter flow
restriction. If the pressure reaches an unsafe difference of 8.5 bar, a
visual/acoustic warning appears on the display in the cab and the engines will
be shifted automatically to low idle.

E.g. the spool (4) moves up when pilot pressure is build up in the control pipe
A4. Now the user port A4 is connected to the pump pressure line and the free
circulation to the tank. There is no high pressure build up only 8 bar from the
back pressure valve and line resistance. Via port B4 the return oil from the
user is flowing back to the hydraulic reservoir. Service line relief valve (4) is
additional installed in this circuit to protect the circuit for extreme pressure.
The shortly extreme pressure closes also the holding valve (2) which secures
the hydraulic pump from extreme pressure peaks.
The holding valves (2) have also the function of load holding valves because

Function:
Reset springs (2) moves the spool (1) in neutral position.
In neutral position of spool (1) the pump oil is flowing back via port PU to the
tank.
Lower picture:
Example. The spool is moved by pilot pressure on the left spool side to right
position: Port PU is closed and the connection through the holding valve (3)
to the user (port A) is open. Also the connection from the other user side (port
B return)is connected to the port T (return line to tank).

MRVs and SRVs are pilot operated relief valves. The MRV limits the max.
Pump supply line pressure. The SRV limits the max. possible pressure peak in
the service-line.
The valves have an „opening characteristic“. That means, that in case of
contamination after the response procedure no further pressure increasing is
possible and damages are avoided.
Function:
The circuit pressure P forces with the force F1 on the piston surface A of the
main valve cone (15). Because there is via the jet bore (16) the same pressure on
the back side of the main cone, this results together with the spring (14) force in
a force F2 that keeps the main cone closed. Via the jet bore (13) the circuit
pressure is in front of the poppet (12). Exceeds the circuit pressure the setting
value of the spring (11), the poppet opens against the force of the spring (11).
This causes that the force F2 decreases and there is no more balance condition
between F1 and F2. Valve cone (15) is moved upwards by the greater force F1.
That means there is now a direct connection from port P to T (tank).
ACVs serve for compensation possible lack of feed when the SRV at the
opposite port is actuated (see circuit diagram) and for avoiding cavitation
damages. In addition, to supply a user in case it is continuously moved by
acceleration forces at zero position of the control spool.
Function:
The circuit pressure inside the spring chamber closes the valve cone (7).
The back pressure of the return line acts on the surface of the valve cone (7).
Whenever the pressure in the service-line is lower than the springs force the
valve cone opens by the force of the back pressure and hydraulic oil is additional
supplied.

Function:
The system pressure forces onto the front area of the valve cone (1). This force
moves the valve cone against the spring and allows the oil to flow from the
pump through the spool centre to the port.
In neutral position of the spool no further flow is possible. (see circuit diagram)
If the spool is not more in neutral the flow continues to the user.
If due to an external force the pressure directed to the pump overcomes the
pump line pressure, this pressure forces the valve onto its seat (closed position)

Task:
Travel brake valves control the oil flow from the hydraulic motor to the tank
depending on operating pressure. This braking action prevents the motors from
over speeding.
Function:
Spring force keeps the spool in the lowest flow position. with increasing
operating pressure the opening for the return oil flow becomes larger.
On its way to the hydraulic motor the oil flows from A to A1 respectively from
B to B1 depending on the selected travel motion.
Example:
Operating pressure at port A moves spool (1) against the force of the spring (2)
and opens the way for the return oil (B1 to B).
Holding valve (3) prevents a direct oil flow from B1 to B.
If the operating pressure decreases to such an extend that the spring force
overcomes the pressure, the flow to the tank becomes restricted, resulting in
braking of the machine.
For more information and adjustment see section 8.3.

Function:
Pressure reducing valves type DR & DP are direct operated valves of 3 way
design, e.g. with a pressure relief function on the reduced pressure side.
At rest, the valve is normally open, and fluid can flow unhindered from port P
to A. Pressure in port A is also present on the end of the spool (2), via control
line (6), opposing the compression spring (3). When the pressure in port A
reaches the pressure level set at spring (3), spool (2) moves to the control
position and holds the pressure in port A constant.
Fluid to control the valve is taken from port A via the boring (6).
If the pressure in port A rises still further due to external forces, the spool (2)
is moved still further towards the compression spring (3).
This causes a flow path to be opened over control land (8) in the control spool (2)
to tank. Sufficient fluid then flows to tank to prevent any further rise in pressure.
An optional non return valve (5) is available to allow free flow from A to P.

Function:
When there is no flow through the valve, control spool (3) is held in neutral
or output position by means of the return springs (4). The control spool (3) is
operated by means of oil immersed solenoid (2).
The force of the solenoid (2) effects control spool (3) by means of the plunger
(5) and pushes it from its resting position to the required end position.
This results in free flow from P to B and A to T.
When solenoid (2) is de-energized, control spool (3) is moved back to its
resting position by means of return springs (4).
An optional hand emergency (6) allows movement of the control spool (3)
without energizing the solenoid.

Function:
The valve poppet (2) is connected via the jet bores (11) and (12) with the
pressure port (P).
If static pressure increase above the set pressure value, the valve poppet (2)
opens and allows oil to flow freely via port (T1) to tank. This out flowing oil
generates a pressure drop in the spring chamber of the main spool (5). The
closing force of the spring (6) is now lower as the oil pressure from the
pressure port (P) and the main piston (5) opens to release pressurized oil to the
tank via port (T2).
Damped opening and closing is obtained by the throttled volumetric change.
By applying external pressure of Pst max = 35 bar to the main spool (9) via
port X, the pre-tensioning of the pressure spring (3) is increased by the amount
of the piston stroke "S" and system pressure is increased correspondingly.
The maximal possible pressure (P) adjustment is 440 bar with max. control
pressure at port X.
The lower setting is fixed by means of the setting screw (7) and lock nut (13);
1 turn of setting screw reduce or increase the pressure about ~150 bar.

Pump support pressure X4 passes valve #6 position "b" and flows via power control
valve #8 position "a" to the large area side of positioning piston #12.
Because the large area side of positioning piston #12 is approximately three times larger
as the small area side, the pump support pressure X4 of 60 bar present on both sides, re-
sulting in stronger force at the large area side, keeps the pump in Q-min position.
The large area side of positioning piston #12 is connected, via power control valve
(8) position "a" and pressure balance valve (6) position "a", to the return oil line.
The pump moves into Q-max position, because the pump pressure acts only at the
small area side of positioning piston #12.

The large area side of positioning piston #12 is connected, via power control valve

The operating pressure (with the value for start of de-stroking) at the slipper pad of
piston #13 moves the power control valve (8) into position "b" (against the spring
force supported by the X1-pressure).
This in turn connects the operating pressure to the large area side of positioning pis-
ton #12.
Because the large area side of positioning piston #12 is approximately three times

The reason of this check is to make sure, the pump starts destroking at an operating
pressure of 150 bar with a pump regulation pressure X1 of 0 bar.
1. Connect a 400 bar pressure gauge to the pressure check point at the respective
high pressure filter for the pumps being checked.
2. Connect a 25 bar pressure gauge to respective pressure check point M20-1 or
M20-2 at the control and filter panel (X1-pressure).
3. Change over the respective three way cock to electronic regulation.
4. Unplug the respective proportional valve Y61.1 / Y61.2.
5. Insert an Allen key into the angle indicator bolt (see illustration) for better visi-
bility of the start of.
6. Start the respective motor. The X1-pressure should be 0 bar.
7. Stall the hydraulic for the pump to be checked and alter the operating pressure
with the MRV between 140 and 160 bar.
Start of de-stroking should be at an operating pressure of 150 bar, shown at the
gauge connected to the high pressure filter.
8. Re-adjust the operating pressure at the MRV to 310+10 bar and plug on the

The sense of this check is to make sure that the pump is in Q-min. position at an op-
erating pressure between 300 bar and 310 bar.
1. Connect a 400 bar pressure gauge to the pressure check point at the respec-
tive high pressure filter for the pumps being checked.
2. Insert an Allen key into the angle indicator bolt (see illustration) for better
visibility of the start of de-stroking.
3. Start the respective motor, stall the hydraulic only for the pump to be
checked and alter the operating pressure with the respective MRV between
280 and 310 bar.
• Stall only one pump per motor to prevent an influence of the regula-
tion system..
• Turning the Q-min. stop bolt too much out can cause serious damage
to the pump.
The pump moves over 0 (zero) position into the opposite drive direc-
tion: (suction line becomes pressure line and pressure line becomes
suction line)

The drive train of the excavator consists of two electric motors, several hydraulic pumps,
which supply cylinders and hydraulic motors.
The load limiting control ensures optimum use of the power required for the excavator
under varying operating conditions and avoiding overload of the motors.
Illustration Z22407a shows the principle of the electronic load limiting control.
The MC7 (E32-1) processes the following input signals:
• Voltage (Pin 47) from electronic signal rectifier (A32)
• Current motor 1 (Pin 45) from electronic signal rectifier (A33-1)
• Current motor 2 (Pin 46) from electronic signal rectifier (A33-2)
Each electric motor drives three variable displacement pumps by means of a PTO-
gearbox. Each pump is equipped with a hydraulic power controller (HPC).
This controller limits the input torque of the pump to an adjusted command value (X1-
pressure, for start of destroking).
The command value (X1-pressure) is present via proportional solenoid valves Y61-1 re-
spectively Y61-2 at the hydraulic power controllers of each pump.
Function:
The ESR-Module (A32) transforms an AC Voltage, which is proportional to the net volt-
age, into a proportional DC Voltage and transfers it into the MC7 (E32-1).
The ESR-Module (A33-1 + A33-2) transforms an AC Voltage, which is proportional to the
respective motor current, into a proportional DC Voltage and transfers it also into the MC7
(E32-1).
These input signals are the information about the actual load to the motors and serves the
MC7 (E32-1)
The control algorithm of the load limiting control (MC7) always compares the actual re-
quired power with the rated power.
With increasing load the motor torque will rise and in turn the required power.
For this reason the electronic load limiting control will be initiated when the required
power is higher than the rated power, i.e. the torque of the main pumps will be lowered (by
reducing the X1-pressure) until the rated power is attained again.

The power – Module A31a transforms the 24 VDC battery voltage into posi-
tive/negative 15 VDC and the power Module A31b into positive 5 VDC which is the
supply voltage for the ESR Modules.
Function check:
Measure the supply voltage. (24 VDC; GND = 0 V).
If the supply voltage is not there, check the supply cable and the circuit breaker. If
the circuit breaker always trips there may be a short within the cables to the Power
Module or a short in the unit itself.
If the supply voltage is ok. the Output Voltages have to be checked.
Check pos. 15 VDC, neg. 15 VDC, 5 VDC to GND.
If the supply voltages are not ok. the short circuit monitoring system of the Power
Modules might be activated, therefore disconnect the cables at the terminals
(+15 VDC, -15 VDC and +5 VDC) and repeat the voltage check.
If now (with disconnected cables) the voltages are as they should be there is ei-
ther a short within the cables or in the other modules itself. To determine the fault
connect the entire modules in sequence.
If the voltage is not ok., even when the cables are disconnected from the Power
Module, the Module is defect.

The adjustment of the X1-pressure can be done with three different methods:
A. With 24V supply to separating terminals at the X2-switch board
or
B. With the electronic service tool (EST) BB-3 connected to the serial inter-
face X13-1 (located in the operators cab)
or
C. With a laptop, running the BODEM software, connected to the serial inter-
face X13-1 (located in the operators cab)
1. Make sure the change over valves (79.1 – motor 1 respectively 79.2– motor 2) are in
position “Electronic Pump Regulation”
2. Connect a pressure gauge to the respective check points (M20.1 or M20.2), using a
long pressure gauge hose to be able reading the pressure in front of the X2-panel.
3. Selection of adjusting mode:
Turn the main key switch in on position and activate the adjusting mode as follows:
Connect 24V, simultaneously to terminal 54 and 55 for 10 seconds, using two test
leads and disconnect the voltage thereafter.
4. Selection of the motor and in turn the required
proportional solenoid valve :
With the main key switch still in on position, select the applying terminal for propor-
tional solenoid valve Y61-1 or Y61-2 as follows:
Motor1 →Y 61-1 → No connection to 24V required.
Motor2 →Y 61-2 → Connect permanent 24V to terminal 53, using a test lead.
5. Adjusting the X1-pressure:
Start the respective motor.
Read the pressure, required = 24± 0,5 bar
If necessary increase the X1-pressure as follows:
Connect 24V to terminal 54.
)
• As long as voltage is supplied, the X1-pressure drops to zero.
After interrupting the voltage supply, the gauge pointer will move
slowly to the new present X1-pressure.
• Example: Keeping voltage supply for two seconds , will increase the
X1-pressure of approximately 1bar.
• The adjusted value will be saved immediately and will be available
after power off.
6. To decrease the X1-pressure connect 24V to terminal 55 and proceed as described
under item 5, keeping voltage supply for two seconds , will decrease the X1-pressure
of approximately 1bar.

position and keep it fully under load), and increase the pressure at all 4 MRV’s *
equally to 212 bar.
Expected motor current at 3 times 212 bar ≅ 88 Ampere (reading of text display)
(peak point).
Record this current for other tests.

7.3.1 General
The pilot pressure pumps ( 7.1 and 7.2) deliver the oil through the pressure filter
(68.1) to port A of the pressure relief valve (70.1) for limiting the pump support
pressure X4 to 60 bar. By the function of pressure reducing valve (70.2), the X4
pressure of 60 bar is reduced to the pilot pressure X2 of 35 bar. The common X2
pressure will be reduced by the function of pressure reducing valves ( 81.2 ) to the
necessary constant X1 pressure, to prevent the motors from overloading.

General information
The control blocks, the piping to the distributor manifold and the connecting

Attachment (BHA) and the Front Shovel Attachment (FSA). If a conversion is
required, contact the service department for further information.

Study together with the circuit diagram.
The following numbering refers to the hydraulic circuit diagram.
Each main pump (1 to 6) delivers oil trough the high pressure filter (44.1,
44.2, 46.1 and 46.2) to port P of the main control blocks (FSA – 14, 15, 16
and 13) (BHA - 175, 15,176 and 13). The single valve block IV (13) is in line
to valve block II (15) connected.
This results in three main circuits.
If all spools of the control blocks (1 to 6) are in neutral position, the oil leaves
the block at port T and returns via return oil pipes, return oil collector
manifold (35), return oil pipes (L6 and L7), return oil collector tube (114),
back pressure valve (115) and the return oil filters (117.1-117.4) into the tank
(41).
The function of back pressure valve (115) ensures:
- sufficient oil supply for all anti-cavitation valves
- and that sufficient oil is forced through the oil coolers.
If a control lever or pedal is actuated, pilot pressure oil moves the spools of the
control blocks, directing the oil flow from the main pumps to one side of the
user (either cylinders or motors). From the opposite side of the user the oil
returns to the control block and from there via the return oil circuit back into
the tank.
Each circuit is provided with one MRV (also called primary valve, at least one
SRV (also called secondary valve) and at least one flow restrictor.

Function:
There are different main valve spools in the three main valve blocks (14, 15 and
16) for boom and stick installed. Only by lowering of the boom or retracting of the
stick is the floating function active if the button on the lever is not pushed. The
piston and rod side of the respective cylinders are in floating position direct
connect to the return line (tank). The pressure free pump circulation is still active
there is no pump pressure to the respective cylinders. By external force the
cylinder can move up or down with negligible hydraulically resistance.
In floating position of the boom only valve spool 4 of main valve block I and 2 of
block III active.
In floating position of the stick only valve spool 2 of Main valve block I and 4 of
block III active.
To push down the boom or retract the stick by hydraulically force the respective
button on the lever must by activated.
S98 for the Stick cylinders
S95 for the Boom cylinders
In normal operation mode (i.e. float position) the piston side, the rod side and the
tank are connected together when lowering the boom or retracting the stick.
If a pressurised lowering of the boom or retracting of the stick cylinders is
required the connection of piston side, rod side and tank must be disconnected and
the rod side must be connected to the pump pressure. This is done by
disconnecting the respective special floating valve spool and activating the
respective standard valve spool. Now pressurised pump oil can flow to the
cylinder rod side.

There are three service line relief valves (secondary valves) installed, all three
at the distributor manifold, to limit the maximum possible pressure peaks in
the service line.
Since the opening pressure of the SRV’s is higher than the setting of the Main
Relief Valves (MRV’s) it is necessary to increase the main relief pressure for
testing and adjusting purposes.
1. Connect gauges to all above listed check points (min. 400 bar).
2. Start both motors..
3. Extend the boom cylinder to the stop position until the hydraulic
system stalls.
4. Increase slowly the pump supply line pressure, by turning in set screws (3)
of the MRV’s in control block I, II, III and IV, while observing the
pressure gauges. Stop as soon the pressure does not raise any further.
The gauge pointers should remain at 350 bar + 5 bar.

• Since the piston side of the boom cylinders are protected by several
SRV’s, the pressure gauges show the pressure of that valve with the
lowest setting.
Even when the gauges show the required pressure it is possible that
one or more valves have a higher setting.
• To ensure that only the SRV’s open during checks and adjustments
it is necessary to further increase the setting of both MRV’s.

By the function of the remote control valve (43) pilot pressure oil is sent to
one side of the control block (13/IV) when operating the control lever for
"Swinging". At the same time by the function of the proportional valve
(Y127) pilot pressure (proportional to the lever deflection) is present at port
„X“ pressure increasing valve (PIV)of each brake valve block (49.1+ 49.2)
thus a internal pressure built up (higher as 150 bar) in the service lines is
possible.

Brief description (Service circuits)
(Study together with the for the machine valid hydraulic and electric circuit
diagram).
The swing motors (20.1 + 20.2) are feed by the main pump (III). This pump is
at port XLR permanent with 35 bar X2- pressure fix adjusted to Qmax.
The oil flows from the pumps through check valve (47.3) and filter (153.3) to
the single control block (13 / IV).
In neutral position of the spool oil flows via port C into control block II for
additional oil volume from pump 3 to valve circuit II. If no function of
control block II is activated the oil flow via port T in to the collector tube (35)
and further via the return oil lines (L6 + L7) into the tank.
On its way to tank the oil must flow through the back pressure valve (115)
and the return oil filter (117.2 - 117.5). (Back pressure valve function see
chapt. 4.)
When operating the control lever for "Swinging" the pump line is connected
in the control block (33/IV) with the corresponding service line (A1 or B1) to
the swing motors (20.1 + 20.2).
The oil flows from the control block through each one of the swing brake
valves (49.1 + 49.2; description see page 6 and 7) and the swing motors (20.1
+ 20.2).
Each swing gear includes one spring loaded multi disk brake (House brake)
for locking the superstructure.

General:
A6VM355 HD1D is a variable displacement motor with an axial piston rotary
group of bent axis design for hydrostatic drives.
Its control range allows the variable displacement motor to meet both, high speed
and torque requirements. The output speed is proportional to its displacement.
The output speed increases with decreased displacement trough lower
operating pressure.
The output torque increases with increased displacement trough higher
operating pressure.

The swing gear is of compact design with a two stage planetary gear including a
multi disk house brake.
The gear is bolted to the superstructure and fits firmly due to the machined
diameter (A) and the bolt torque.
The torque loaded on the hydraulic motor is transmitted by drive shafts (2)
and sun gear shaft (3) to the first planetary stage (17).
The sun shaft (17) of the first planetary stage transmits the torque into the
second planetary stage (19). By the planetary gears the output drive shaft is
rotated and transmits the torque to the pinion (21).
The drive housing, and the gearbox are filled with gear oil.
Aeration is done by breather filters.
A grease nipple is via a hose connected to the bearing lubrication port (22).

Function:
Brake applied:
The outer disks (3) engaged to the housing by serration and the inner disks (4) in
serrated connection with drive shaft are pressed together by the springs (8). This
results in a fixed connection between housing and drive shaft.
Brake released:
Oil pressure via port (12) reaches the bottom of the piston (5) and forces the
piston upwards against the thrust washer (2).
This function eliminates the spring force to the disc (3) and (4) thus the brake is
released.
The releasing pressure is 12 - 20 bar, the maximum permissible pressure
60 bar.
This is a so named "Wet Brake" because the brake housing is filled with oil.

Cont'd.:
If after a swing motion the joy stick is released into neutral position
without using the foot brake, the superstructure is turned by inertial force
and the hydraulic motor acts as a pump because it is driven by the swing
gear.
Both service line’s (pump line and tank line) are blocked at the control
valve block. In this period the service line (previously pump line) acts now
as suction line and the return line (previously return line) acts now as
output line. Because of the closed service ports at the control block all oil
from the swing motor must pass the brake valve block. The pressure
increasing valve in the brake valve block acts now as a back pressure
valve. This variable back pressure is the brake force.

During the swing down phases the swing motors (6) are working as “pumps”.
It means that the pressure side change to a suction side and the suction side
change to a pressure side. To prevent cavitation in the swing motors during
this change there are two back pressure valves (4) fitted. The valves (4)
together with the gear pumps (3) increase the main back pressure up to 15
bar. Port B is direct connected to the tank port (return line) of the swing brake
valve block (5).

9. Re-connect the pilot pressure line. Proceed like item 2.
) • For later one pressure checks the steps 2 + 3 must not be done.
• The Swinging down path may be extended, means the low pressure
may be decreased a little; e.g. for greater operating radius such as at
strip Mining. But a little only otherwise disturbance due Swinging will
occur.
• The Swinging down path may be shortened, means the low pressure
may be increased approx. 20 bar; but not more because that means
greater shocks in the systems which will shorten the life time of the
components.

(Study together with the valid hydraulic and electric circuit diagram for the

The travel motors (21.1 - 21.4) are driven by the pumps (1; 2; 5; 6).
The oil flows from the pumps through check valves and the filters (46.1 + 46.2)
to the control blocks (14 / I + 16 / III).
In neutral position of the spools the oil flows via the return oil lines into the col-
lector tube (35, not shown). From the collector tube (35) flows the oil via the re-
turn oil lines (L6 + L7, not shown) into the collector tube (114) and further to
the tank. On its way to tank the oil must flow through the back pressure valve
(115) or the oil coolers (106.1 – 106.4) and the return oil filter (117.1 - 117.4).
(Back pressure valve function see section 4.)
When operating the foot pedal for "Travelling" the pump line of each control
block is connected with the corresponding service line (A1 or B1) via the rotary
distributor (34) and the valve blocks (175 + 176) to the travel motors (21.1 -
21.4).
The oil flows from the travel motors via the rotary distributor back to the control
blocks and further to tank.
Each travel gear includes two spring loaded multi disk brakes (House brakes)
(52.1 - 52.4). They are used as parking brakes, automatically applied (by the
function of Y16) whenever both motors stoped. The brake release pressure is
monitored by the pressure switch (B48).
The leak oil (case drain) flows through the line (L) and the leak oil filter (108)
back to tank.

Function (Z 22522):
During operation superstructure and under carriage rotate towards each other.
The travel oil motors must be supplied with hydraulic oil in every position in
which the superstructure is turned in regard to the undercarriage. Oil is di-
rected by the control blocks to the ports (A-D) of the housing (2).
The oil flows to the outlet ports (A-D), of the rotor (1), via ring grooves as
well as longitudinal and cross holes. The rotor is bolted to the under carriage
and the housing (stator) is fixed by the upper structure. The sealing of the ring
grooves among one another is done by seal rings (8) and o-rings (9).
The hydraulic connection for the travel motor case drain and the travel motor
house brake is done via the ports (L) and (St).
The rotor (1) is at the top and bottom section guided in the housing by the
guide rings (12).

Brake applied:
The outer disks (7) engaged to the housing by serration and the inner disks (6) in
serration connection with the coupler, are pressed together by the springs (8 +
9). This results in a fixed connection between housing and coupler.
Brake released:
Oil pressure via port (16) reaches the left side of the piston (2) and forces the
piston towards the back-up ring (4), as shown.
This function eliminates the spring force onto the disks thus the brake is re-
leased.
The releasing pressure is 18 bar, the maximum permissible pressure 60 bar.
This brake named "Wet Brake" because the brake housing is filled with gear oil.

On the following pages are shown the electric / hydraulic flow charts for the
travel circuit.
The electrical signal created by the foot pedals (E21a and E21b) reach first
of all the ramp modules (E51 and E52) and further the amplifier modules
(A12 and A13). It is a voltage signal from –10 up to +10 Volt dependent to
the pedal deflection and direction. The amplifier modules changes this signal
in a current signal from 0 to 1000 mA and a directional signal (0 or 24 V).
The current signal activate the proportional valve and the directional signal
the directional solenoid valve of the remote control block (45.1 and 45.3).
The valves in case activate the pilot pressure to the main control valve blocks.
This hydraulic signal (pilot pressure) from the remote control valves flow to
the main control blocks (175 and 176) to the pilot pressure ports a1 or b1
which in case push the main control valve spool to control the main hydraulic
oil flow from the main pump.
The main hydraulic oil flows now from the main control blocks via the ro-
tary distributor (34) to the hydraulic motors (21.1 - 21.4).

9.0 General:
The hydraulic track tensioning system ensures automatically the correct track
tension.
The pilot pressure pumps (7.1+7.2, see hydraulic diagram page 02) will supply
oil to all four tensioning cylinders (62.1-62.4).
The maximum pressure is limited by the pressure increasing valve (182), one
for both sides.
The pressure in the tensioning cylinders transmits the required force to move
the guide wheels to the front, until the correct track tension is obtained.
External forces acting at the guide wheels will be absorbed through the
pressure accumulators (60.1 + 60.2, first stage) and (59.1 + 59.2, second stage).

Illustration Z 22454:
The oil flow of the pilot pressure pumps (7.1 + 7.2), filtered by pressure filter
(68.1) enters port "P" of the solenoid valves Y16 via hydraulic line L3 and
the rotary joint to the track tensioning valve block (181) in the car body.
If solenoid valves Y16 is actuated (i.e. pressure at sensor B48), the oil flows
(X2-pressure with 35 bar) via the pressure relive valve (83), rotary joint (34), the
shut-off cock (184) and check valves (180.1+180.2) into the tensioning cylinders
(62.1 - 62.4).
The resulting force moves the guide wheels toward the front, until the correct
track tension is obtained.
Simultaneously the system is connected to the pressure increasing valve (182).
External forces acting at the guide wheels will be absorbed through the pressure
accumulators (60.1 + 60.2, first stage) and (59.1 + 59.2, second stage).

Cushioning Function
When the tensioning cylinders (62.1 - 62.4) are moved in by external forces,
the none return valves (179.1 + 179.2) will be closed.
A certain amount from the displaced oil of the tensioning cylinders is taken
up by the pressure accumulators.
First stage: at a pressure higher than 31 bar, is taken up by the side frame
accumulators (60.1.1 + 60.2).
Second stage: at a pressure higher than 150 bar, is taken up by the center section
accumulators (59.1 + 59.2).
The system pressure can rise up to 315 bar pressure increasing valve (182)
setting.
With reduction of external forces, the oil is pushed back by the accumulator
pressure into the tensioning cylinders.
If the displaced oil volume was higher than the accumulators could take up,
oil is added from the pilot pressure circuit (X2), as soon as the pressure in the
lines to the tensioning cylinder is lower than 35 bar.

Function:
The valve poppet (2) is connected via the jet bores (11) and (12) with the P
port.
If static pressure increases above the set pressure value, the valve poppet (2)
opens and allows oil to flow freely to tank (T1). This oil generates a pressure
drop in the spring chamber of the main spool, the closing force of the spring
(6) is cancelled, and the main piston (5) opens to allow the pump flow to flow
to tank (T2).
Damped opening and closing is obtained by the throttled volumetric change.
By applying external pressure of Pst max = 60 bar to the main spool (9) via
port X, the pre-tensioning of the pressure spring (3) is increased by the amount
of the piston stroke "S" and system pressure is increased correspondingly.
The setting is fixed by means of the setting screw (7) and lock nut (13); one
turn of the screw ~ 150 bar. The possible max. pressure setting with the set
screw (8) on block is about 440 bar.

The access ladder is hydraulic driven by the hydraulic cylinder (Z) via the 60
bar X4 pressure. S84 is the control switch to move the ladder up and down.
The additional pull switch S84A move the ladder only down from the ground.
To lower the ladder the motor can run or stand still. Only to move the ladder
up the motor must running.
) If the ladder is out of the upper position the pilot control system
switches off (all machine movements stoped) and the solenoid valve
Y120 activates the service swing brake. The text display in the cab
shows a message.

The pumps (7.1) and (7.2) are delivering oil through filter (68.1) to port P of the
solenoid valve Y123A/B and the pressure relief valve (70.1) port A. The pressure
relief valve (70.1) maintains the adjusted pressure of maximum 60 bar.
Solenoid valve Y123A/B lead pump oil to the cylinder if one of the solenoids is
energised. Depend on the activated solenoid valve the ladder move up or down.
The pressure relief valve (171) limits the pressure of the ladder cylinder to max.
70 bar.
Return oil from the cylinder flows back via solenoid valve Y123A/B to the
solenoid valve Y125. With energised solenoid this valve lead back oil unhindered
to the oil tank It is energised when both approximately switch S22 and S91 are not
activated (ladder between upper and lower end position). A short way before the
ladder reached one of the end positions one sensor (S 22 – in up position; S 91 –
in down position) switch on and de energise Y125. Now back oil must pass the
orifice (172). By the flow resistance of the orifice the ladder motion will be
slowed down.
If the ladder is in the “Up – position” the activated sensor S22 de-energised Y125
and energised Y123A, now the still connected pump pressure to the cylinder
piston side keep the ladder in the final up position.
If switch S84 is in neutral position and the ladder in “down – position” sensor S91
de-energise all solenoids (Y125; Y123 A+B) and the ladder is “blocked”.

With activated switch S84 to position 2 (ladder down) solenoid valve Y123B
and relay K132 are active. Y123B opened the piston side of the cylinder to
the tank and K132 activate Y125 that the oil can flow without resistance to
the tank. Now the ladder can move down only by its own mass (gravity). The
operator have to push the ladder slightly until it starts moving down by its
own weight.
The rod site of the cylinder receives oil via anti-cavitation valve (162.3).
It is no key contact necessary this function is direct supplied to the battery via
fuse F17.
There is an additional pull switch S84A below the ladder support. With this
switch the ladder can moved down from the ground.
• Make sure that there are no obstacles in the moving range of the
ladder. Stop raising the ladder by releasing the control switch (S84) if
there are any obstacles in the moving range.
• Mount the ladder only in completely lowered position.
• Do not lift persons or objects (tools) with the hydraulic access ladder.
Serious injury or death can be the result.

General
Task:
The cable drum, driven by a brake motor with slip ring rotor, is installed to
wind up or unwind the power supply cable automatically.
1. To considerably improve the mobility of the excavator.
2. To make the operation safer (Material and personnel) i.e. less risk to
damage the cable when travelling backwards and less danger of injury
because the cable must not manual moved.
3. To increase the lifetime of the cable, because the cable is not dragging on
the ground.
) For the optimal use of the cable drum it is necessary that the operator
understands the system very well.
Regular maintenance is essential

(5S3) Rotation direction indicator (switch)
(5R1) Resistor for brake motor torque adjustment
(5S4) Gear type cam switch for resistor controlling and for
monitoring of the two last cable.
(5S6) Pendulum control cam switch, to detect slack or tight cable.

(5K10, 5K11) Relay for brake motor torque controlling
(5F13) Circuit breakers
(5B79) Brake motor temperature probe
(F79) Motor temperature control unit
(X8) Terminal box
The resistor 5R1 serves as a series resistor for a three- phase motor with a slip ring rotor
(stand still, sliding rotor-brake motor)
It is a resistor with one or more taps (as a function of drum design), to make a selection of
different star bridges possible. The taps serve to regulate the motor and brake torque during
winding up and unwinding.
With service switch 5S1 is it possible to control the cable drum manually in both directions
(windup, unwind, stop and automatic)
The terminal box X8 contains the terminal rails , the relays 5K7, 5K8, 5K10, 5K11, circuit
breakers 5F13 + 5F14 and motor temperature control unit F79.
Direction of rotation monitoring switch 5S3 opens its contact and de-energizes 5K10 and
5K11 while unwinding (traveling forward) and eliminates the resistor which controls the
star bridge. (Lowest tensioning force)
Gear type cam switch 5S4* reduces the tensioning as soon as half of the cable is unwinded
(contact 21/22 opens and de-energizes 5K11) or stops reverse travelling as soon as the max.
length of the cable is winded up (contact 31/32 opens and de-energizes K178).
The proximity switch 5S8 stops L.H. crawler reverse travelling at too much deflection of
the power supply cable to the left (contact br/sw opens and de-energizes K179).
The proximity switch 5S9 stops R.H. crawler reverse travelling at too much deflection of
the power supply cable to the right (contact br/sw opens and de-energizes K180).
Pendulum control cam switch 5S6* stops forward travelling at too tight power supply
cable (contact 11/12 opens and de-energizes K177) or reverse travelling at too much slack of
power supply cable (contact 21/22 opens and de-energizes K178).
The limit switch 5S7* stops forward travelling by de-energizing K177 as soon as the safety
cable length on the drum gets unwinded.
The motor temperature control unit F79 interrupts all travel motions as soon as drive
motor 5M6 reaches a critical temperature (monitored by sensor 5B79).

General:
In the automatic mode of control switch 5S1, the power supply to drive motor 5M6 is
controlled by the function of the travel control system, which controls relay 5K7, i.e.
while traveling the contacts of 5K7 are closed and kept closed for further 10 seconds
after stopping the travelling motion (controlled by time relay D53), before the power
supply will be interrupted and the motor brake is active.
The torque of drive motor 5M6 is controlled by the function of the relay 5K10 and
5K11; which changes the resistance at the star bridge (5R1). Both relay are
simultaneously controlled by switch 5S3 (Direction of rotation monitoring switch),
to ensure the lowest tensioning force while unwinding (i.e. traveling forward)

The cam discs (3), arranged in pairs on the centering discs, can be adjusted
individually and continuously by means of a adjusting spanner (4) The centering
discs can be reversed and are fixed to the square shaft without clearance.
Adjustment can be performed in any position without having to turn the control
shaft. The cam discs, separated from each other by the guard plate, slide past each
other without touching during adjustment. The cam ring next to the cam ring to be
adjusted will not shift and remains in the set position.
Hollow-type rivets prevent accidental shifting of the cam discs.
By selecting the appropriate contact - either make or brake - any angle between 0°
and 350° can be set without changing the cam rings.
When the cam hits the actuator (2), the latter will operate the micro switch (1).

When diodes are fitted to a relay, they are fitted to allow a current flow in one
direction only. An LED* (Light Emitting Diode) indicates a current flow if it
lights up.
When diodes ** are fitted anti-parallel to a relay coil, they absorb the high
induced voltage caused by making and breaking the current flow through the
coil.
This occurs each time we operate a switch supplying current to the coil. The
diode effect allows the induced current to circulate within the coil windings and
decay when the energy to the coil is cut.

Function:
The temperature transducer convert the
measured values from the PT100 temperature
probe into electrically standardized analog
signals. With the four wire technique the length
and the cross section of the wires are not
important; because the electrical resistance of the
two current lines gets compensated. The sensor
is supplied with a low electrical current from the
temperature transducer (I+ and I-). Additional to
the temperature probe (PT100) resistance the
line resistance influence the current “flow” what
falsified the PT100 measurement. To
compensate the line resistance there are two
additional lines (U+ and U-) close to the PT100
connected. Via this lines the transducer measure
exact a tension drop between in- and output of
the PT100 probe witch is only created by the
PT100 resistance. Because there is no current “flow” through this lines witch
are influenced by the line resistance (compared to hydraulic system- it’s like
a test hose with a pressure gauge). The module convert this tension drop into
a current signal (4-20mA) which is proportional to the temperature.
In the interest of proper function must the line resistance not exceed 50 Ω.
Additional the lines must be shielded according to the standards. The picture
shows the wiring of a PT100 probe to a temperature transducer in four wire
technique.

) • Probably the best aid for trouble shooting is the confidence of knowing
the system and how to use the ECS. Every component has a purpose in
the system. The construction and operating characteristics of each one
should be understood.
• Use always the electric/hydraulic circuit diagram the flowchart and
the operation manual for the specific machine.
1. Select on page 1 of the flow chart, (which contains the table of contents
and the main program) the respective subprogram, for example the
Power-Master lube system.
2. Components in the flow chart, have the same identification code as in the
electric/hydraulic circuit diagram, as shown in cross reference list (page 2-4).
For example: Relay K50 = ?
On page 2 (cross reference list) you find out that relay K50 is shown on
page 43 of the flowchart.
3. On each page of the respective subprogram you will find the functional
description in plain text.
In case of problems concerning reading the program loops, you may find
answers in the frequently asked questions list on page 6 and 7 of the flow

Description:
Oscillation cylinder (6) is auto directional controlled, non pressure related. This
differential cylinder is connected to the pilot pressure suppliy line (P) and a tank
line (T). The speed is contolled by a flow contol valve (3) and the maximum
working pressure is controlled by a pressure reducing valve (2).
Function:
The Oscillatin cylinder (6) starts as soon pilot pressure is send via the connection
(P) to the control block (1). Design related the cylinder (6) retract always first
after start or from any position the piston has stopped before. When the cylinder
reaches the fully retracted position the flow will be redirected automatically and
the cylinders moves in the extending position. If the cylinder comes to an stop in
between the end positions weather the oil supply get stopped or the cylinder is
hold back by a higher work resistance than the supply pressure, the cylinder
changes direction and retracts.
Stroke speed
For a sufficient lube pump operation 18 – 20 double strokes / min for the pump
drive cylinder are required. Therefore the flow reducing valve (3) has to be
adjusted accordingly.
Procedure:
1. Remove electrical plug connection form the discharge valve (7), so no
pressure built up will take place during the following test.
2. Start engine and run at high idle.
3. Switch “ON” the lube system annually and count strokes per minute, visible
on the moving up and down of pipe (1).
If adjustment is required:
a. Loosen lock nut (3.1)
b. Turn adjustment (3) until the right number of strokes is achieved.
turn set screw ccw for more speed and cw to reduce the speed
c. Tighten lock nut (3.1).
Working pressure
The pressure reducing valve (2) mounted in the oscillation control block reduce
the supply pressure internally to maximal allowed 45 bar.
The pressure ration is 6,55 to 1, that means 45 bar supply pressure result in 295 bar
maximum lubricant pressure.
At the end of line pressure switch the pressure should be 180 ±0,5 bar. With the
lubricant line resistance and different lubricant viscosity the pressure at the
lubricant pump output must be higher as 180 bar. For standard condition adjust the
maximum pump pressure to 220 bar –250 bar, depend on lubricant line resistance
and different lubricant viscosity.
Procedure:
1. Disconnect quick coupling (8), so the pump will be blocked when started.
2. Start engine and run at high idle.
3. Switch “ON” the lube system manually, the gauge should show 220-250 bar.
If adjustment is required:
a. Loosen lock nut (2.1)
d. Turn adjustment (2) until the right pressure is shown at the gauge.
turn set screw ccw for lower pressure and cw to increase the pressure
b. Tighten lock nut (2.1).
c. Reconnect quick coupling (8).
Function:
As soon as the adj. "Pause-Time" is finished the solenoid valves
(2) and (7) are energized. The lubricant pump (1) start to pump lubricant in
the lubricant supply line.
By the function of the solenoid valve (7) the port to the vent line (15) (return
line to the lubricant container) is closed, thus a pressure built up is possible.
The high-pressure barrel pump (1) supplies lubricant into the supply line (8). It
continuos through the lubricant filter (12) to the injectors (metering valves) (18).
) • The picture shows an example only. The hole system includes much
more injectors which are connected via pipes or hoses to the supply
line (8).
In the Injectors the lubricant forced with full pump pressure via the feed lines
(19) to the lube points.
The actual operating pressure can be monitored at the pressure gauge (14)
and checked at the pressure check point (17).

pressure in to the container.
With the diminishing pressure in the main line the pistons of the injector (18)
are forced by spring force in their initial position and the discharge chambers
are filled with grease for the following lubrication cycle.
The system is now prepared for a new lubrication cycle. The operation is re-
initiated after the next "Pause Time" is elapsed.
The proper build-up of the pressure in the supply line (8) is monitored by the
end-of-line switch (16).

The next lubrication cycle starts after the decreasing time and pause time has
expired.
With the switch S24 an additional lubrication can be carried out any time provided
the end of line pressure switch (B43) contact is closed.
Monitoring:
The orderly built-up of the pressure in the lubricant supply line is monitored by
the end-of-line switch (B43 or B46).
If the pressure adjusted at the end-of-line switch is not reached within the adjusted
maximal increasing time the PLC switch off both solenoid (Y7 and Y7A or Y9
and Y9A) valves and send the fault message ”Central lubrication system fault” or
“Swing ring lubrication system fault” to the text display at the dash board.
If the excavator is still working additional four hours with faulty lubrication
system the PLC stop the bucket function. This function is to prevent trouble
depend on a lack of lubricant.
Continued
Task:
A lubricant (L) maximum filling level monitoring is necessary to prevent an
overfilling of the grease barrel (C) via the refilling system (only systems with
refilling arm). The PLC use the analog level signal from the sensor to activate a
lamp at the refilling arm just in the moment when the lubricant container is full.
The sensor (S) is mounted on top of the lubricant container and reaches into the
lubricant.
The refilling level activate only a message at the text display to inform that the
lubricant level must be filled up. The message comes up if the lubricant level
reach 5% (910 mm from the cover plate).
The minimum level stop the respective lubrication pump and release the
lubricant pressure until the lubricant level reach the 0% mark (950 mm from the
cover plate). It is necessary to stop the lubrication system with empty lubricant
container to prevent the lubrication pump from running dry. With empty
lubricant container the bucket motion will be switched off after four hours.
Function:
The capacitively level sensor (S) check continuous the lubricant level (L) and
convert the capacitive signal into a current signal between 4 and 20mA. The
current signal increase with increasing lubricant level.
Use the specific electric circuit diagram and program flow charts.

Principle of operation:
By the lubricant pump, the lubricant is supplied to the centered bore hole (B) of the
lubrication type pinion (R). Bore hole (B) must be perfectly aligned to the center of
the lubrication type pinion (A) to be greased, so that lubricant leaves the tooth flank
always when the gear tooth is in contact. The grease outlet (D) of the lubricating type
pinion is arranged at a different angle for each tooth, so that the lubricant is distributed
in a uniform and perfect manners on the tooth flank of the drive pinion to be
lubricated.
Function:
As soon as the adjusted "Pause-Time" elapse the solenoid valves (2 + 7). energized
and the lubricant pump (1) start to pump lubricant.
By the function of the solenoid valve (8) the port to the vent line (15) (return line to
the lubricant container) closed, thus a pressure built up is possible.
The high-pressure lubricant pump (1) supplies lubricant into the supply line (8). It
continuos through the lubricant filter (12) to the injectors (metering valves) (18).
• The picture shows an example with one pinion only. There are also
machines which have more lubrication type pinion (dummy wheel).
By the injectors the lubricant is forced with full pump pressure via the feed line
(19) to the centered bore hole (B) of the lubricating type pinion (R).

TASK:
A readjusted (at the injector) volume of grease is pushed with the injectors to
the bearings or to the progressive distributors.

Cont'd:
Pos. 1 The injector piston (2) is in its normal or rest position. The discharge
chamber (9) is filled with lubricant from the previous cycle.
Under the pressure of incoming lubricant the slide valve (4) is about
to open the passage (5) leading to the piston.
Pos. 2 When the slide valve (4) uncovers the passage lubricant is admitted to
the top of piston (2) forcing the piston down. The piston force
lubricant from the discharge chamber (9) through the outlet port (10)
to the bearing or progressive distributor.
The lubricant pressure at the bearing or the progressive distributor is
always the same as the pump pressure.
Pos. 3 As the piston completes its stroke, it pushes the slide valve (4) past the
passage, cutting off further admission of lubricant to the passage.
Piston and slide valve remain in this position until lubricant pressure
in the supply line is vented (relieved) at the pump.
This is indicated by the injector stem (8). (fully in)
Pos. 4 After pressure is relieved the compressed spring (3) moves the slide
valve (4) to closed position.
This opens the port from the measuring chamber and permits the
lubricant to be transferred from the top of the piston to the discharge
chamber.
This is also indicated by the injector stem (8) (fully out)

Cont'd:
The injectors are designed so that the lubricant out- put of two or more
injectors can be combined without the use of tees.
The injector body (1) has two outlets ports (a + b), one above the other.
The connector tube (2) is used to couple the injectors together.
Lubricant from injector No. 1 is directed through the connector tube into the
discharge chamber of injector No. 2 but simply combines with the lubricant
delivery of injector No. 2 to yield double output from the out- let of injector
No. 2.
This does not interfere with the operation of injector No. 2.
End-line switch
TASK:
The pressure control unit is monitoring and controlling the centralized lube
system.
Function:
One pressure control unit is installed in each greasing circuit. The grease
pressure, produced by the pneumatic barrel pump, is with his force also at the
piston (1)
If the grease pressure reaches the tension of the spring (4), the piston (1) is
forced against the disk (2), thus that the contacts of the switch (5) are
operated and a electric impulse is given to the electronic control unit of the
greasing equipment.
Adjusting has to be done with the sleeve (6). Clockwise - higher switch point,
counterclockwise - lower switch point.
In-line filter
• Before servicing stop the motor and remove ignition key in order to
prevent operation of the system.
) • A clogged filter element will be moved against the spring force by the
lubricant pressure and unfiltered lubricant reaches the system!
TASK:
By the function of the vent valve the lubricant supply line gets pressure-
relieved, after the lubrication cycle is finished. The injector pistons can move
into their initial position.
Function:
The solenoid gets energized. When the lubrication starts.
The connection from A to B gets closed, thus a pressure build-up is possible.
The solenoid gets de-energized, as soon as the lubrication cycle is finished.
This causes opening of the connection A to B, thus the supply line to the
lubricant barrel is open. The lubricant flows from A to B or vice versa
along the main valve cone (5).
