BACKHOE VALVE - SINGLE TILT

The pilot manifold can also be

accessed with the floor plate
removed. The pilot pressure tap
(T3) is located on the pilot
manifold. The pilot manifold routes
pilot oil to and from the loader and

Boost Brake
Valve

This illustration shows a sectional view of the boosted brake valve group. When the brake pedal is
depressed, the boost brake valve moves to the left and inlet oil from the pilot manifold is directed
to the master cylinder.

The 420E/430E machines are equipped with hydraulically assisted master cylinders, which decreases
the amount of pedal effort when braking. This illustration shows the boosted brakes valve group, which
uses oil from the pilot accumulator to add boost to the master cylinder. The hydraulic force multiplies the
pedal effort so the operator can get more braking force with less effort.
The brake boost valves are connected to the master cylinder (A) at each brake pedal (B). Oil enters
the master cylinder through the supply hose (C) and exits the master cylinder through the return hose
(D). The oil flows to the service brakes through the hoses (E) at the bottom of the master cylinder.
The master cylinders can be removed from the machine from inside the operator's compartment.

RIDE CONTROL

Travel at high speeds over rough terrain causes bucket movement. The
optional Ride Control System acts as a shock absorber by absorbing
bucket forces, which stabilize the machine.

The Ride Control System components include; ride control relay (A), ride
control solenoids (B), ride control accumulator (C), and ride control pressure switch (D).

Two solenoids are now used on the "E" Series machines Ride Control
System.

The Ride Control System, on machines with the optional autoshift transmission, is controlled by the Machine ECM. The Machine ECM monitors
the position of the ride control switch and determines when to operate the
ride control system.

SIDESHIFT SLIDE LOCKS

Sideshift machines feature a boom (A) that can be shifted to different positions along a frame (B).
Lock pistons (D) are used to lock the boom to the frame rails. Lock piston solenoids, located on the
backhoe valve outlet manifold, actuate the lock pistons.
The stabilizers (C) are used to raise and lower the machine. Sideshift and center pivot machines
use the same type of control valves to operate the stabilizers.
