The pilot pump receive oil from the hydraulic tank. The discharged oil from the pilot pump flows to
the safety solenoid valve through the line filter. The oil is filtered by the line filter. The pilot relief
valve is provided in the pilot pump for limiting the pilot circuit pressure.
The oil filtered by line filter flows remote control valve through safety solenoid valve.
The return oil from remote control valve returned to hydraulic tank.

When the lever of the safety solenoid valve moved upward, oil does not flows into the remote control
valve, because of blocked by the spool.

When carrying out the combined operation of swing and boom up, the boom up operating speed is
slower than normal operation.
To increase working efficiency, swing speed reducing system is used.
The pilot oil from pilot pump flow into P03 port in main control valve through boom EPPR valve. P03
oil pressure moves swing reducing spool to upper position and oil flow rate to the swing motor
decreased.
Then, the boom up speed is increased. This is called the boom priority system.

When the travel speed solenoid valve was placed in the Hi position, the pressure oil from pilot pump
through line filter flows to port P of travel speed change over valve, and the control piston is pushed
up, thus minimizing the displacement.
When the travel speed solenoid valve was placed in the Lo position, the oil of P port return to the
tank and the control piston is returned, thus maximizing the displacement.

When the power max switch on the left control lever is pushed ON, the power max solenoid valve is
actuated, the discharged oil from the pilot pump into Pu port of the main relief valve of main control
valve ; Then the setting pressure of the main control valve is raises from 350 kgf/cm2 to 380 kgf/cm2 for
increasing the digging power. And even when press continuously, it is canceled after 8 seconds.

When the arm regeneration is selected to disable on the cluster, the arm regeneration solenoid
valve is activated. The pilot oil from pilot pump flow into Pb4 port in main control valve through
solenoid valve and the arm regeneration spool is shifted to right.
Then, the oil from arm regeneration passage returns to tank and the arm regeneration function is
deactivated.
When the arm regeneration is selected to enable on the cluster, the arm regeneration function is
activated and arm in operation speed is increased.
Refer to page 2-43 for the arm regeneration function.

When one of the RCV lever (except travel lever) is tilted, the pilot oil flows into SH port through main
control valve.
This pressure moves spool so, discharged oil from pilot valve flows to swing motor PG port.
This pressure is applied to swing motor disc, thus the brake is released.
When all of the RCV lever are set in the neutral position, oil in the swing motor disc cylinder is
drained, thus the brake is applied.

When carrying out the combined operation of swing and arm of the left control valve, the swing
speed can be lowered than operating speed of arm.
Pc3 pressure from the swing shuttle block change the swing priority spool and decreases the oil flow
rate to the next section to make the swing operation most preferential.
This is called the swing priority system. For details, refer to page 2-45.
