Pressure test using the auxiliary couplers


NOTE: Hydraulic oil temperature should be a minimum of 52 °C (125 °F) before attempting any tests on the hydraulic
system.
NOTE: Two persons are required to perform the flow meter tests to safely avoid possible injury. One person must be
seated in the operators seat when the engine is running. The second person is to control the flow meter and take the
readings.
1. Attach the flow meter to the auxiliary couplers on the
loader arm.
NOTE: Verify that the flow inlet and outlet direction is cor-
rect on the flow meter.

Main relief pressure


1. Activate the auxiliary function in one direction on the
machine, and hold the auxiliary switch in that position.
Slowly turn the pressure screw on the flow meter while
watching the flow meter pressure gauge and liter per
minute (l/min) gauge or gallon per minute (gpm) gauge.
Pump flow will remain relatively constant until the main
relief pressure is achieved. At the point of pressure re-
lief, pump flow will significantly drop below pump spec-
ification on the flow meter. Record the main relief pres-
sure.
Please see Main control valve - General specifica-
tion (35.359) for specification about the main control
valve.

If equipped with a high flow system, the operator can com-


mand additional flow to the auxiliary circuit by engaging
auxiliary high flow function. This will provide increased
flow to the auxiliary circuit. Please see High flow hy-
draulic pump - General specification (35.600) for spec-
ifications about the high flow pumps.

High flow feature is engaged by pressing the rocker switch


(1) mounted on left hand A post. The switch selects HF
(high flow) or HP (high pressure) and is illuminated when
high flow or enhanced high flow (EHF) is on. This allows
the operator to enable/disable the function depending on
the attachment requirements. NOTE: HP will activate only
if the machine is equipped with EHF. RCPH11SSL003AAD 1

The External Auxiliary Control can be controlled ONLY if ALL of the following conditions are met
1. Operator is seated properly
2. Operator Restraint engaged
3. The ignition is in the ON position
4. HF switch is activated

If equipped with an enhanced auxiliary high flow sys-


tem (EHF), the operator can command flow and higher
pressure to an additional auxiliary circuit by selecting HF
(high flow) or HP (high pressure) on the rocker switch (1).
Please see High flow hydraulic pump - General spec-
ification – Enhanced High Flow (EHF) pump (35.600)

is enabled, the loader control valve standard auxiliary
circuit is limited to 2nd Aux circuit flow of 30.3 l/min (8 US
gpm). The 275 bar (4000 psi) high flow setting can only
be used with approved attachments and is controlled by
a circuit interlock installed at the multifunction plug with RCPH11SSL003AAD 1

the attachment.

The Enhanced High Flow Auxiliary Control can be controlled only if all of the following conditions are met
1. Operator is seated properly
2. Operator Restraint engaged
3. The ignition is in the ON position
4. Engine is running

On-Road regulations require the loader arm and bucket to be locked in a ‘traveling’ position. To prevent the operator
from inadvertently lowering or raising the loader or bucket causing damage to roadway, vehicles or machine.

The operator places the bucket and loader in the appropriate position. Then the operator then switches the loader
lock to the on position, locking the bucket and loader in the set position. The operator will not be able to move the
bucket and loader until the loader lock switch has been turned off. The switch will illuminate when Loader Lock is on.

The function is always active when hydraulics are enabled.

A Mechanical Machine with Loader Lock on will trigger trouble code 4952. This is expected.

1. If the hydraulic oil is not at operating temperature run


the engine at full throttle and hold the bucket control
lever in the ROLLBACK position for 30 seconds. Then
return the bucket control lever to NEUTRAL for 15 sec-
onds. Repeat this cycle until the temperature of the oil
is at least 52°C (125°F).
2. Disconnect the hydraulic lines from the implement con-
troller where they connect to the main control valve.
3. Connect a 41 bar (600 psi) pressure gauges to pilot
line at spool ends.
4. Start the engine and run at high idle. Read the pressure
gauge and record the pressure reading at high idle.
Pressure should be 0 bar (0.0 psi) with lever in neutral.
5. Move the implement controller lever to raise the loader
control arms. Read the pressure gauge and record the
pressure reading.
6. Move the implement controller lever to lower the loader
control arms. Read the pressure gauge and record the
pressure reading.
7. The pressure readings should vary from 0 bar (0.0 psi)
to 25 bar (360 psi) at high idle for a given angle on the
implement control handle.
8. If the pressure readings are correct, the test is com-
plete. If the pressure readings are not correct, repair or
replace the charge/hydrostatic pump assembly or the
main control valve.

1. If the hydraulic oil is not at operating temperature run


the engine at full throttle and hold the bucket control
lever in the ROLLBACK position for 30 seconds. Then
return the bucket control lever to NEUTRAL for 15 sec-
onds. Repeat this cycle until the temperature of the oil
is at least 52°C (125°F).
2. Disconnect the hydraulic lines from the implement con-
troller where they connect to the main control valve.
3. Connect a 41 bar (600 psi) pressure gauges to pilot
line at spool ends.
4. Start the engine and run at high idle. Read the pressure
gauge and record the pressure reading at high idle.
Pressure should be 0 bar (0.0 psi) with lever in neutral.
5. Move the implement controller lever to tilt the loader
bucket. Read the pressure gauge and record the pres-
sure reading.
6. Move the implement controller lever to dump the loader
bucket. Read the pressure gauge and record the pres-
sure reading.
7. The pressure readings should vary from 0 bar (0.0 psi)
to 25 bar (360 psi) at high idle for a given angle on the
implement control handle.
8. If the pressure readings are correct, the test is com-
plete. If the pressure readings are not correct, repair or
replace the charge/hydrostatic pump assembly or the
main control valve.

As the loader arm cylinder extends, flow from the rod port
is directed to port A (1). Flow entering port A (1) is able
to pass through the adjustable orifice and fixed orifice in
the flow divider spool. The proportion of the flow split is
determined by size of the adjustable orifice. Please see
the charts below for specifications about your machine’s
flow split.
The remainder of the flow passes through the fixed ori-
fice, out port B (4) back to the control valve and returns
to tank. The flow that passes through the adjustable ori-
fice flows out port D (2) and is teed to the base end of
the bucket cylinders. The resistance on the movement
of the bucket cylinders creates a pressure high enough to
open the unloading spool in the self-leveling valve. As the
bucket cylinders extends, the flow from the rod port of the
bucket cylinders enters port C (3) past the open unload-
ing spool around the flow divider spool and out port B (4)
back to the control valve and returns to tank.

The self-leveling control valve consists of a spring loaded, flow divider spool (10) with a fixed orifice (4) in the center.
The fixed orifice (4) controls how far the flow divider spool (10) opens when oil is directed to it. An adjustable orifice
(3) is used to control the amount of oil sent out of the valve body, and therefore regulates the amount of leveling for
the bucket. The self-leveling valve has a check valve assembly (5) that allows oil to flow to the base of the bucket
cylinder and prevents oil from backfeeding through the self-leveling valve when the bucket spool is actuated. The
unloading spool (9) allows a controlled amount of oil to escape from the rod end of the bucket cylinder as self-leveling
is occurring. Because bucket leveling is controlled by a flow divider spool (10), the amount of leveling that occurs
depends on the oil flow from the loader lift cylinder, and therefore changes with engine speed.
The system is designed to operate with the engine at high idle. At speeds less than high idle, the bucket may not
maintain level as the loader is raised. Raising the loader very slowly can affect the bucket leveling, because sufficient
oil flow is not available to provide adequate pressure through the fixed orifice (4).
