Sudden movement of the machine or release of oil under pressure can


cause serious injury to persons on or near the machine.

To prevent possible injury, perform the procedure that follows before


testing and adjusting the hydraulic system.

Personal injury or death can result from escaping fluid under pressure.

Escaping fluid under pressure, even a very small pin-hole size leak, can
penetrate body tissue and cause serious injury and possible death. If
fluid is injected into your skin, it must be treated immediately by a
doctor familiar with this type of injury.

Always use a board or cardboard when checking for a leak.

down the margin pressure.

Note: After you perform the adjustments for the flow compensator valve, recheck
the low pressure standby and the margin pressure.

Adjustments for the Pump Controller

NOTICE

When the compensator valve is rebuilt, ensure that the pressure


compensator adjustment and the flow compensator adjustment are
backed out to a low pressure setting before the engine is started. Severe
pump damage and system damage could be the result, or the engine
may not start.
The high pressure stall test will indicate if the pressure compensator valve needs adjusting.
If the high pressure stall test is within the specification, the pressure compensator spool
adjustment is not necessary. The Margin Pressure Test and the Low Pressure Standby Test
will indicate, if the flow compensator spool adjustment is correct. If the Margin Pressure
Test and the Low Pressure Standby Test are within the specification, then the flow
compensator spool adjustment is not necessary.

8. If margin pressure is not correct, the flow compensator valve must be adjusted. Write
down the margin pressure.

Note: After you perform the adjustments for the flow compensator valve, recheck
the low pressure standby and the margin pressure.

Adjustments for the Pump Controller

NOTICE

When the compensator valve is rebuilt, ensure that the pressure


compensator adjustment and the flow compensator adjustment are
backed out to a low pressure setting before the engine is started. Severe
pump damage and system damage could be the result, or the engine
may not start.

The high pressure stall test will indicate if the pressure compensator valve needs adjusting.
If the high pressure stall test is within the specification, the pressure compensator spool
adjustment is not necessary. The Margin Pressure Test and the Low Pressure Standby Test
will indicate, if the flow compensator spool adjustment is correct. If the Margin Pressure
Test and the Low Pressure Standby Test are within the specification, then the flow
compensator spool adjustment is not necessary.

Sudden movement of the machine or release of oil under pressure can


cause serious injury to persons on or near the machine.

To prevent possible injury, perform the procedure that follows before


testing and adjusting the hydraulic system.

Personal injury or death can result from escaping fluid under pressure.

Escaping fluid under pressure, even a very small pin-hole size leak, can
penetrate body tissue and cause serious injury and possible death. If
fluid is injected into your skin, it must be treated immediately by a
doctor familiar with this type of injury.
Always use a board or cardboard when checking for a leak.

Sudden movement of the machine or release of oil under pressure can


cause serious injury to persons on or near the machine.

To prevent possible injury, perform the procedure that follows before


testing and adjusting the hydraulic system.

Personal injury or death can result from escaping fluid under pressure.

Escaping fluid under pressure, even a very small pin-hole size leak, can
penetrate body tissue and cause serious injury and possible death. If
fluid is injected into your skin, it must be treated immediately by a
doctor familiar with this type of injury.
Always use a board or cardboard when checking for a leak.

The pressure tap (5) for the system pressure is located near the loader control valve (6). The
loader control valve (6) is located on the right side of the machine. Access is gained from
the bottom of the machine.

Pump discharge pressures are known values and the pump discharge pressures can be tested
during two specific conditions. The two conditions are low pressure standby and high
pressure stall. Prior to making any pump adjustments, perform the low pressure standby,
high pressure stall and margin pressure tests.

Increase the hydraulic oil temperature to the operating temperature by stalling the boom
down for 60 seconds. Check for leaks.

Low Pressure Standby Test


1. Lower all the implements and the stabilizers to the ground. Engage the parking brake. Stop
the engine.

2. There are two plates that are located at the edge of each door in the cab. Remove the four
screws on the two plates and remove the floormat.

3. Remove the four screws that hold the floorplate in place. Remove the floorplate.

5. Install the 8T-0855 Pressure Gauge with a range of 0 to 4000 kPa (0 to 580 psi) to the hose.
Install the hose to the pressure tap (5) for system pressure.

Note: Do not move any control levers nor move the steering wheel while the 8T-
0855 Pressure Gauge is installed. The higher pressure that is created by upstroking
the pump will damage the gauge.

6. Start the engine and run the engine at high idle.

7. Leave all the control levers in the HOLD position.

8. Do not move the steering wheel.

9. The pressure reading on the gauge that is attached to the pressure tap (5) for the system
pressure must be 2300 350 kPa (330 50 psi).

10. Do not make adjustments to pump output based on the results of this test. Continue with
the High Pressure Stall Test and the Margin Pressure Tests first.
11. Before continuing to the next test, remove 8T-0855 Pressure Gauge from the hose that is
attached to the pressure tap (5) for the system pressure. Install 8T-0860 Pressure Gauge
with a range of 0 to 40000 kPa (0 to 5800 psi) to the hose that is attached to the pressure
tap (5) .

Note: Failure to remove the 8T-0855 Pressure Gauge prior to performing the
following tests will cause the gauge to be destroyed, when the pump is upstroked.

High Pressure Stall Test


1. Ensure that all the implements and the stabilizers are still on the ground.

2. Move all the control levers one at a time except the BOOM LOWER position in both
directions in order to initiate a stall condition.

3. The system pressure (5) must be 20700 700 kPa (3000 100 psi) for all of the positions
except BOOM LOWER, the steering circuit and DUMP on parallel lift machines. The system
pressure (5) must be 13900 700 kPa (2000 100 psi) during the BOOM LOWER. The
system pressure (5) must be 17250 700 kPa (2500 100 psi). The system pressure (5)
must be 15900 700 kPa (2300 100 psi) for the front wheel steering.

If all of the pressure readings are too low, then the pressure compensator spool requires an
adjustment. If all of the pressure readings are too high, then the pressure compensator spool
requires an adjustment. Record the pressure reading and continue with the Margin Pressure
Test prior to going to the Pressure Compensator Spool Adjustment.

Margin Pressure Test


1. Ensure that all the implements and the stabilizers are still on the ground.

2. Stop the engine. Move the control levers to all the positions in order to release system
pressure.

3. Remove the 8T-0860 Pressure Gauge with a range of 0 to 40000 kPa (0 to 5800 psi) from
the hose that is attached to the pressure tap (5) .

pressure tap (5) and to signal pressure tap (2) .

5. Start the engine and run the engine at low idle. Check for leaks.

6. Increase the engine rpm to 1450 50 rpm.

7. Turn the steering wheel and stall the steering.


a. The reading on the differential pressure gauge is the margin pressure. The margin
pressure should be 2200 100 kPa (320 15 psi).
8. If margin pressure is not correct, the flow compensator valve must be adjusted. Write
down the margin pressure.

Note: After you perform the adjustments for the flow compensator valve, recheck
the low pressure standby and the margin pressure.

Adjustments for the Pump Controller

NOTICE

When the compensator valve is rebuilt, ensure that the pressure


compensator adjustment and the flow compensator adjustment are
backed out to a low pressure setting before the engine is started. Severe
pump damage and system damage could be the result, or the engine
may not start.

The high pressure stall test will indicate if the pressure compensator valve needs adjusting.
If the high pressure stall test is within the specification, the pressure compensator spool
adjustment is not necessary. The Margin Pressure Test and the Low Pressure Standby Test
will indicate, if the flow compensator spool adjustment is correct. If the Margin Pressure
Test and the Low Pressure Standby Test are within the specification, then the flow
compensator spool adjustment is not necessary.

pump performance will be poor.

20. After the adjustment is made, tighten the locknut. Repeat Steps 13, 14, 15, 2, 17, and 16.

21. If the flow is not within the specification, then adjust the torque limiter. Stop the engine.
Repeat steps 19 and 20. If the torque limiter is not within the specification after several
attempts, then rework the torque limiters. Go to the next test in order to Rework the
Torque Limiter. Repeat the test and adjust for the torque limiter after you rework the
torque limiter.

22. When the flow is within the specification, remove the test equipment.

23. Remove hose (6) from the 6V-8946 Reducer Assembly. Remove 6V-9831 Cap Assembly
from tube (5). Place a new O-ring onto the fitting and reinstall hose (6) to tube (5) .

24. Remove hose (4) from the 6V-8946 Reducer Assembly. Remove 6V-9832 Cap Assembly
from elbow (3). Place a new O-ring onto the fitting and reinstall hose (4) to elbow (3) .
25. Replace hoses (4) and (6) into the two retainers (8) on the boom for the two hoses.
Reinstall the four bolts (7). There are two bolts on each retainer (8). Reinstall the retainers
(8) on the boom for the hoses.

26. Replace the floorplate. Reinstall the four screws that hold the floorplate in place.

27. Replace the floormat. Reinstall the four screws that hold the two plates for the floormat.
There are two screws on each plate. The plates are located at the edge of each door in the
cab.

Rework the torque limiter

Note: If the torque limiter cannot be set within the specification, then replace the torque
limiter.

Note: This procedure will not increase the lifting capacity of the machine.

Personal injury can result from hydraulic oil pressure and hot oil.

Hydraulic oil pressure can remain in the hydraulic system after the
engine has been stopped. Serious injury can be caused if this pressure is
not released before any service is done on the hydraulic system.

Make sure the bucket and/or all of the attachments have been lowered
to the ground, and the oil is cool before removing any components or
lines. Remove the oil filler cap only when the engine is stopped, and the
filler cap is cool enough to touch with your bare hand.

Fluid Spillage Containment

Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during performance of inspection,
maintenance, testing, adjusting and repair of the machine. Be prepared to collect the fluid
with suitable containers before opening any compartment or disassembling any component
containing fluids. Refer to "Tools And Shop Products Guide", NENG2500 for tools and
supplies suitable to collect and contain fluids in Caterpillar machines. Dispose fluids
according to local regulations and mandates.

At operating temperature, the hydraulic oil tank is hot and under


pressure. Hot oil can cause burns. Remove the breather filter cap only
when the engine is stopped and the breather filter cap is cool enough to
touch. Slowly loosen the breather filter cap to release any pressure in
the hydraulic tank. Be cautious of hot hydraulic oil when any lines are
disconnected in the hydraulic system.

NOTE: Put identification on water lines, hoses, wires and tubes for installation purposes.
Cap and plug all lines, hoses and tubes to prevent foreign material from entering the
system.
NOTE: Drain all fluids in a suitable container for storage or disposal.
