E. Procedure for checking Brake Dual Accumulator Charge Valve Pressure Limits (see Figu re 5).
1. With the engine off, discharge a11 oil stored i n the accumulators by pushing the service brake pedal.
2. Install a pressure gauge at the Service Brake Dual Accumulator Charge Valve "A l " Pressure Test Port (See Figure 5).
3. Start the engine, the valve will start to charge the accumulators. Watch the pressure gauge. The High Charge Limit
should be 2750 +50/-0 PSI ( 1 9 +.4/-0 MPa) when the valve stops charging. If adjustment is required, then go to step 6.
4. With the engine running, bleed off the hydraulic pressure stored in the accumulators by pushing the service brake pedal
until the gauge reads about 2400 PSI ( 1 6 . 5 MPa). Listen to hear when the Service Brake Dual Accumulator Charge
Valve starts to recharge. Push the service brake pedal once more, the valve should start to recharge. Watch the pressure
gauge, the Low Charge Limit should be 2200-2350 PSI ( 1 5 . 2 - 1 6.2 MPa) when the valve starts to recharge. If adjustment
is required, then go to step 7.
5. Turn the engine off, remove a11 ofthe fittings i n the Tank port o n the Service Brake Dual Accumulator Charge Valve

7. Adjust the pressure until the High Charge Limit is 2750 +50/-0 PSI ( 1 9 +.4/-0 MPa) and the Low Charge Limit is within
2200-2350 PSI ( 1 5 .2-16.2 MPa) as stated in step 4 .
