94CHB01

EQUIPMENT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING!

CLEAR COUPLER OF DEBRIS BEFORE OPERATING

Make sure coupler is free of debris prior to operation. Debris can interfere with the
locking mechanism not allowing it to function properly.

UNDERSTAND GEOMETRY OF PRIME MOVER

The addition of the coupler will change the geometry of the prime mover. This change
should be taken into consideration during operation and travel.

UNDERSTAND EFFECTIVE REACH OF ATTACHMENTS

The coupler increases the distance between the stick and the attachment. The effective
reach of the attachment will be increased.
Depending on the specific coupler and attachment combination, it may be possible
for the attachment to come in contact with the upper structure of the excavator (cab,
boom, cylinders,etc.). The operator should familiarize themself with any potential
interference locations prior to use.

WARNING!

DO NOT USE BUCKET IN SHOVEL POSITION

Attaching a bucket in a reverse orientation on the coupler is NOT recommended.

The lift eye or other portion of the bucket may interfere with the machine stick while
in the full curl position. The locking mechanism of the coupler WILL NOT work properly if the bucket is in the reverse orientation.

MODIFICATIONS TO MACHINE STICK COULD INTERFER WITH

COUPLER OPERATION

Check for modifications to the underside of the machine stick prior to operation. Such
modifications including, but not limited to, accepting a grapple, thumb or the addition
of a reinforcement plate may cause interference with the locking mechanism of the
coupler. DO NOT operate the coupler if the possibility of interference exists. Doing
so may cause damage to the coupler and will void warranty.

EQUIPMENT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING!

LIFT EYE USAGE

The JRB coupler is designed with a lift eye for lifting and placing material. It is designed for the convenience of the operator. Consult your prime mover manufacturers
specifications for lifting procedures and capacities. Incorrect applications and uses
and failure to follow these instructions may result in severe injury or death.
In order to use the lift eye correctly and safely the attachment must first be removed
from the coupler. Not only is this the safe method, it also increases the lifting capacity of the machine. When an attachment is in use with the coupler, the chain, cable
or other lifting device can contact it and may cause interference, damage or potential for unexpected release.
The lifting device must always be removed when changing attachments. If the
device is in the area of the coupler or attachment during coupling, it may cause an
incomplete locking of the coupler to the attachment or damage to the coupler and/or
the attachment.

WARNING!

ONLY USE JRB PROVIDED HYDRAULIC KIT TO OPERATE

THE COUPLER

The JRB Coupler has been extensively studied and tested, for both efficiency and
safety, using the JRB hydraulic kit.
The JRB Coupler has not been studied or tested using any other hydraulic system.
Since hydraulic systems vary in many aspects, JRB cannot know whether the
coupler may be operated safely with a hydraulic system that is not its own. Because
of the unknown characteristics of any other hydraulic system, JRB takes no
responsibility for the safety of a JRB coupler if it is operated with a hydraulic system
other than the one provided by JRB.

TRANSPORTING THE ATTACHMENT

Travel only with the attachment in a safe transport position to prevent uncontrolled
movement. Drive slowly over rough terrain and slopes.

When transporting on a trailer secure attachment at recommended tie down

locations using tie down accessories that are capable of maintaining attachment stability.

When driving on public roads use safety lights, reflectors, Slow Moving Vehicle signs
etc., to prevent accidents. Check local government regulations that may affect you.
Do not drive close to ditches, excavations, etc., as a cave-in could result.
Do not smoke when refueling the prime mover. Allow room in the fuel tank for
expansion. Wipe up any spilled fuel. Secure cap tightly when done.

MEASURE TRAVEL HEIGHT AND LENGTH PRIOR TO

TRANSPORTING

The overall travel height and/or length of the prime mover will be increased if the coupler
and attachment are installed. Do not rely on original prime mover specifications to
determine overall dimensions. Actual dimensions will be affected by specific coupler
and attachment combination.

EQUIPMENT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

MAINTAINING THE ATTACHMENT

Before performing maintenance (unless otherwise specified), lower the attachment to

the ground, apply the brakes, turn off the engine and remove the key.
Never perform any work on the attachment unless you are authorized and qualified
to do so. Always read the operator service manuals before any repair is made. After
completing maintenance or repair, check for correct functioning of the attachment.
If not functioning properly, always tag DO NOT OPERATE until all problems are
corrected.
Worn, damaged, or illegible safety decals must be replaced. New safety decals can
be ordered from your local dealer or the manufacturer.
Never make hydraulic repairs while the system is under pressure. Serious personal
injury or death could result.
Never work under a raised attachment.

REMOVE THE ATTACHMENT FROM THE COUPLER AT THE

END OF EACH SHIFT.
Failure to do so could cause increasing tightness of the locking mechanism, causing it

PRODUCT INFORMATION
The JRB VersaLoc Coupler places a heavy emphasis on safety with a unique patented locking mechanism. A pilot operated check valve assures the hydraulic cylinder is locked in case of hydraulic pressure
loss. A detent lock on the front attachment pin retains the attachment in case of loss of engagment of
the link pin. Furthermore, double mechanical lock arms and gravity locks prevent the lock wedge from
accidentally being retracted or retracting in case of loss of cylinder force. NOTE: This coupler can be
operated with the JRB designed high or low pressure hydraulic system.
JRB excavator couplers are powered using hydraulic fluid diverted from the machine
bucket cylinder circuit by an electric solenoid valve. The coupler is locked by default
and the solenoid is energized only during the unlock sequence.
The diagrams on this page illustrate the function of the couplers locking system during lock and unlock operations. Refer to the Operation Section of this manual for lock and unlock procedure of the coupler.

LOCKED:

UNLOCKED:

The coupler shown is in the correct lock position.

When the coupler is rotated to the full curl position, the

two lock arms contact the underside of the machine
stick. This rotates the lock arms, allowing the gravity
lock to move from its position behind the lock wedge.
The lock wedge can now fully retract to disengage the
attachment pin.

The lock wedge is extended over the back attachment pin and the gravity lock is in position behind the
lock wedge. In this position the lock wedge can not
retract far enough to release the pin in the event of a
hydraulic failure.
The lock arms are also held in position behind the
detent lock. In this position, the detent lock can not
release the front attachment pin.

The lock arms are also rotated from their position

behind the detent lock. This allows the detent lock
to rotate out of the way as the front attachment pin is
disengaged.

OPERATION
HYDRAULIC SCHEMATIC - HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM

The system shown is in the LOCKED position (no electrical power to solenoid). System pressure
applied to bucket cylinder line A or B is transferred through valve port C2 or C1 respectively.
The pressure is then sent through CV1 or SV2/CV2, through solenoid valve SV1 and charges
the head end of the coupler cylinder. The system maintains a positive force on the locking plate
at all times while the bucket cylinder is pressurized.
With the switch in the UNLOCK position (electrical power applied to both solenoids SV1 and SV2)
and line A pressurized; pressure is transferred through CV1 and SV1 and energizes the rod-end
of the coupler cylinder to retract the coupler locking plate. Hydraulic fluid from the head end of
the coupler cylinder moves through the EXT port back through SV1, CV3, and SV2 and drains
into line B. When line B is energized, the locking plate can not be retracted.
Note: The JRB Excavator Coupler is designed to be locked when there is no electrical
power. In other words, the coupler is locked by default. Electrical power is required to
unlock the coupler.

circuit is also pressurized through the main control valve. System pressure is transferred through
valve port P to sequence valve CT1. CT1 remains closed until the bucket cylinder pressure
reaches 4000 PSI or over. At 4000 PSI CT1 opens and allows a maximum of 3250 PSI to be
transferred through sequence valve CT2, valve CT3 and charges the head end of the coupler
cylinder. The system maintains a positive force on the locking plate at all times while the bucket
cylinder is pressurized.
With the switch in the UNLOCK position (electrical power applied CT3). Pressure is transferred
through CT1, CT2, CT3 and energizes the rod-end of the coupler cylinder to retract the coupler

OPERATION
STORAGE:

Clean the unit thoroughly, removing all mud, dirt, and grease.
Inspect for visible signs of wear, breakage, or damage. Order any parts required and make the necessary repairs to avoid delays upon removal from storage.
Tighten loose nuts, capscrews and hydraulic connections.
Seal hydraulic system from contaminants and secure all hydraulic hoses off the ground to help prevent damage
Store unit in a dry and protected place. Leaving the unit outside will materially shorten its life.

Additional Precautions for Long Term Storage:

Touch up all unpainted surfaces with paint to prevent rust

REMOVAL FROM STORAGE:

Remove cover
Wash unit and replace any damage and/or missing parts
Lubricate grease fittings
Check hydraulic hoses for damage and replace as necessary

LIFT POINTS

Lifting points are identified by lifting decals where required. Lifting at other points is unsafe and
can damage attachment. Do not attach lifting accessories around cylinders or in any way that may

damage hoses or hydraulic components.

Attach lifting accessories to unit at any recommended lifting points.

Bring lifting accessories together to a central lifting point.
Lift gradually, maintaining the equilibrium of the unit.

WARNING!

Use lifting accessories (chains, slings, ropes, shackles and etc.) that are capable of
supporting the size and weight of your attachment. Secure all lifting accessories in
such a way to prevent unintended disengagement. Failure to do so could result in
the attachment falling and causing serious personal injury or death.

TIE DOWN POINTS

Tiedown points are identified by tiedown decals where required. Securing to trailer at other points
is unsafe and can damage attachment. Do not attach tie down accessories around cylinders or in

any way that may damage hoses or hydraulic components.

Attach tie down accessories to unit at any recommended tie down points.
Check unit stability before transporting.

WARNING!

Verify that all tiedown accessories (chains, slings, ropes, shackles and etc.) are
capable of maintaining attachment stability during transporting and are attached in
such a way to prevent unintended disengagement or shifting of the unit. Failure to
do so could result in serious personal injury or death.

TRANSPORTING

Follow all local government regulations that may apply along with recommended tiedown
points and any equipment safety precautions at the front of this handbook when transporting
your attachment.

MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance is the key to long equipment life and safe operation. Maintenance
requirements have been reduced to an absolute minimum. However it is very important that these
maintenance functions be performed as described below.
PROCEDURE

INTERVAL

NOTES

Remove debris from coupler

at each interchange

Primarily in lock area prior to engaging attachment

Inspect locking mechanism

at each interchange

Both primary and supplemental

Inspect hoses for leaks

daily

Grease zerk fittings

daily

Unlock coupler mechanism

daily

To prevent binding of locking plate

Check for unusual wear or

cracks in parent material or
welds

daily

Coupler should be cleaned in order to better detect any

cracks or wear. If a crack is found in either the steel structure
or welds, the coupler must be removed from the machine
and JRB contacted immediately.

Check tension of springs

weekly

Check the supplemental lock

locking arm for wear

weekly

The locking arm stem operates against the stick of the

machine which may cause excessive wear. Replace locking
arm when required.

Tighten link and stick pin

hardware

weekly

If bolt is out, the pin can slide out of one side of the coupler
and cause the pin-on rib to break.

COUPLER GREASING
To keep the coupler in proper working condition it must be greased on a daily basis. Grease
points on the coupler are as shown. If any grease zerks are damaged, replace and grease.
Note: Cylinders and Pin Kits that are supplied without grease zerks DO NOT need to be
greased.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If the lock wedge of the coupler will not release the attachment pin, the gravity lock may be interfering with the lock wedge and is not allowing it to fully retract. This is usually caused by the coupler/
attachment not being rotated to the full curl position as described in the unlock procedure.
To fix, rotate attachment to full curl position and hold over relief. Press the LOCK button on the
coupler control box and hold for two seconds to allow lock wedge to engage pin. Make sure the
locking mechanism of the coupler is free from debris or any other obstruction that may cause it to
jam. Repeat the steps described in the unlocking procedure, ensuring the machine stick is pulled in
close to the machine and the attachment fully curled. Cycle coupler cylinder several times to check
function of the locking mechanism
DO NOT try to force attachment from the coupler if the coupler will not
release. Doing so may cause damage to the coupler and/or attachment.

Gravity Lock
