PROBLEM
The existing load sense drain valve can become plugged on certain M313D, M314F, M315D, M315D2, M315F, M316D, M316F, M317D2, M318D, M320D2, M322D, M322D2, and M324D2 Wheeled Excavators. If the existing drain valve becomes plugged, it can cause high load sense pressure to be maintained at the AESC pressure switch, preventing the AESC from activating. The new LS drain valve has an improved screen that prevents the valve from plugging with debris. |
