PROBLEM

Show/hide table

The existing hydraulic system can over-cool when operating in a very low ambient temperatures (-15 degrees Celsius) with a very low load factor on certain M314F, M315F, M316F, M317F, M318F, and M322F Wheeled Excavators. If the existing hydraulic system over-cools in the condition described above, the 5211039/">521-1039 Thermal Bypass Valve will need to be installed.
