Margin Pressure Test (Note)

If the “Hydraulic Modulation” feature is installed on the machine,

the margin pressure MUST be tested


. with this feature de-activated
. but not with the solenoid connector disconnected !

Indeed, it makes a big difference:


- function de-activated: still 200 mA to the solenoid
- connector disconnected: 0 mA to the solenoid !

According to some tests on C+ machines,


Performing the adjustment procedure
with the connector disconnected, the margin results about 2 bar higher
than with the function de-activated by the front joystick switch !

Qmin & Qmax-screws adjustments (2/5)

Qmax–screw adjustment:

Qmax screw is very short and is normally never touching the motor-
swash plate.
To verify Qmax screw adjustment,
- In E.T. Override Mode, adjust
“Travel Motor Swash Plate Angle…Solenoid” to 0 Amp,
- put the machine up in the air, full stroke travel, dial 1, 1st gear,
- write down the current drive shaft speed (S1),
- turn the Qmax screw CCW ¼ of a turn at the motor,
- write down the new drive shaft speed (S2),

. If both shaft speeds are identical (S1=S2),


Qmax screw adjustment was and is still acceptable: leave it as is.
. If not (shaft speed decreased), turn Qmax screw 1 turn CCW 34
and repeat the above steps until shaft speed does no longer change.
Qmin & Qmax-screws adjustments (3/5)

Note: For the ECM to run the “Hydraulic Travel Motor Speed Calibration”
successfully, the shaft speed at Qmax must be within following range:

Swap both pilot lines of the top of the Smart Boom Valve (X & B1, orange arrows)
This ensures that, during smart boom operation,
a) we can shift the boom spool down but
b) that no movement will take place since the boom lowering valve will remain locked.

A) Low Pressure Setting:


On the SSP, activate the “Boom (Full) Float Solenoid” function (so Rod End pressure is now lowered)
(Note: you can verify that full pilot pressure now acts on the top boom line relief valve)
Run the engine at Dial 1
Fully operate and maintain the boom down operation
Check the pressure at the LS pressure port
It should be at the Line Relief Low Pressure setting (below 40 bar).
If not, follow the procedure for Low Pressure setting.

B) High Pressure Setting:


On the SSP, activate the “Boom Float Down Solenoid”
(Doing so, Rod End pressure is not affected & stays at high pressure level
and, at the same time, the smart boom valve disable the Boom Lowering Control-Valve and
it locks the boom down)
Run the engine at Dial 1
Fully operate and maintain the boom down operation
Check the pressure at the LS pressure port
It should be at Line Relief High Pressure setting (around 410 bar)
If not, follow the procedure for High Pressure setting (described later).

If necessary, swap the top & bottom line relief valves


and perform the same procedure on the bottom line relief valve, which is now installed on the top.
51
Once all is done, swap both top pilot lines of the Smart Boom Valve (X & B1) back to their original position
Re-adjust the LS-limiter back to its original setting.

Smart Boom Line Relief Valve Adjustment (4/5)

Adjustment Procedure:

1. Low Pressure Adjustment:


In the conditions described in previous procedure (TEST),
i.e. with Pilot Pressure on the right side of the above valve (Boom Float (Full)),
- Fully turn the Pressure Reducing section CW onto the stop,
- Turn it back 2.75 turns CCW and the line relief pressure settings reaches
the specifications (30-40 bar)
Note: if you progressively turn further CCW the “Pressure Reducing Section”,
you can maybe still reduce the pressure setting,
but don’t go to far CCW otherwise you the valve will fall apart.
- And finally lock the Low Pressure locknut.

2. High Pressure Adjustment:


In the conditions described in previous procedure (TEST),
i.e. without Pilot Pressure on the right side of the above valve (Boom Float Down),
- loosen the locknut of the High Pressure Section and,
- adjust the High Pressure Section to 410 bar and,
- finally lock the High Pressure locknut. 54

Boom Down 1) a new pressure switch has been added
solenoid (Joystick) in the boom-down pilot line (“a5”) in order to allow
“Boom Raise” when Smart Boom is selected (re-increasing relief setting),
2) + ”B5”-pressure sensor to prevent Smart Boom activation

Medium Pressure Limiter Adjustment (1/2)

To be developed !!!

1) Attention: @ dial 10 because the LS-limiter is very sensitive


To flow !!! 150 bar in dial 1 corresponds to 180 bar in dial 10!!!

2) Also mention to bring the LS-limiter a couple of degrees back-


ward after adjustment to avoid the valve to stick in closed position.

Multi-Function Combined Valve Adjustment (1/8)

Required Tools:
 
- Pressure Gauge on Load-Sensing-Port,
- Flow-meter,
- Electronic Technician and Comm-Adapter

Pre-requisite:
 
- RH-Joystick-Slider or Work-tool pedal (option) must be active
(i.e. Implement Lock turned OFF, Armrest lowered…),
 
- Desired Work-tool must be activated*
-

(If no pedal) - No Joystick Steering active (LH console JS-switch) !


(If no pedal) - MCV active with LH console MCV-switch !

- one tool selected at the Monitor (not “No Tool”),


 
- Speed Dial in position 10,
 
-Operating Mode must be in the “Power Mode” (or “Mode 2”) 59
Multi-Function Combined Valve Adjustment (2/8)

Flow-Direction Adjustment:

“One-Way / Two-Ways” Adjustment = Position of “One Way-Two Ways” Solenoid


 

In “One Way” mode,


- Return oil flows straight to tank without going through the MCV valve.
- The RH-Slider or MCV-pedal can be operated in any direction*.

 
In “Two Ways” mode,
- Oil flows in both directions through the MCV
- MCV pedal operated reverse or forward.

60
Multi-Function Combined Valve Adjustment (3/8)

Flow-Direction :

Be aware that the B-port is the top port of the MCV valve output, &
the A-port is the bottom port of the MCV valve output
r ONE-WAY tools (Port-A only),
When you adjust the line “Maximum Load Sense Pressure”,
you are ACTUALLY telling the ECM the OPERATING pressure of the tool,
& the ECM will adjust the “LINE RELIEF SETTING” 50 bar higher* !
BUT the Load Sense limiter SOLENOID remains at max pressure (0 amp).

TWO-WAY tools,
When you adjust the line “Maximum Load Sense Pressure”,
you are adjusting the worktool’s maximum LS-pressure,
and the relief valves will also be set 50 bar higher*.
61
Multi-Function Combined Valve Adjustment (4/8)

Load Sensing-Solenoid Valve Test*:

- In ET Tool Configuration, set the LS-pressure to the maximum and


- Verify, at the LS-pressure tap, that, when using the MCV,
the system can reach the maximum LS-pressure (330-360bar).

If yes, skip the following steps and go to next page.

If not, the LS-Solenoid Valve must be mechanically re-adjusted:


- Release the hydraulic pressure in the system,
- Remove the LS-Solenoid Valve from the MCV-valve (at the back),
- Turn adjustment screw CW to increase the setting (60 bar / turn),
- Reinstall the LS-Solenoid Valve and repeat the whole test again.

Load Sensing

62
Multi-Function Combined Valve Adjustment (5/8)

Flow Adjustment for 2-way tools:

- In the ET-Tool-Configuration menu, under both “Max Load Sense Pressure”,


write the maximum value (35000 kPa)
to make sure the relief valves remain closed, both ways.

- Still in the ET-Tool-Configuration menu, but under “Max Flow”,


write the values of the Flow specified by your tool supplier
in both directions (Port A and Port B),

- Make sure the flowmeter restriction is fully open,


activate the MCV and change the values of liter/min in the ET screen
until you get the supplier-specified flow at the flowmeter.

63
Multi-Function Combined Valve Adjustment (6/8)

Pressure Adjustment for 2-way tools:

- Simply close the flowmeter restriction fully and


adjust the supplier-specified operating pressure in the ET-Load Sense lines,
in both directions.

- Don’t trust the ET pressure values.


Verify the operating pressure at the flowmeter and
adapt the ET values if the operating pressure does not match the supplier
specs.

Note: Don’t worry about the Line Relief Valves.


They are automatically set by the ECM at 50 bar higher
than the ET-adjusted operating pressure.

64
Multi-Function Combined Valve Adjustment (7/8)
Line Relief Adjustment for 1-way tools*:

- In the ET-Tool-Configuration menu, under “Max Load Sense Pressure Port A”,
write the values of the OPERATING Pressure specified by your tool supplier,

- Still in the ET-Tool-Configuration menu, but under “Max Flow Port A”,
write the values of the Flow specified by your tool supplier,

- Activate the MCV and progressively increase the restriction


at the flowmeter until fully closed.

- Read the maximum pressure at the flowmeter: it should match


be 50 bar higher than the Operating Pressure specified by your tool supplier.

- If both pressures don’t match, modify your “Max Load Sense Pressure Port A”-
input in the ET-Tool-Configuration until they do match.

Note: Remember that in 1-way, you actually set the LINE RELIEF valve around
50 bar higher than what you input into the ET-pressure in “tool configuration” !!!
65
Multi-Function Combined Valve Adjustment (8/8)

Flow Adjustment for 1-way tools:

- With the same pressure adjustments as before, re-open and restart


increasing the restriction at the flowmeter until you reach the supplier-
specified tool operating pressure simulated at the flowmeter.

- Now check the flow provided to the flowmeter at the operating pressure.

- And modify the “Max Flow Port A” of the ET-Tool-Configuration


accordingly.

Note: As long as you modify your “Max Flow Port A” input, don’t forget
to re-adjust the restriction (more or less closed) at the flowmeter
in order to simulate the proper tool operating pressure.
