To decrease the power shift pressure 200 kPa (29 psi), push the button for swing priority mode (3) and power mode switch (7) at the same time.
Note: Always use the pressure gauge that is connected to pressure tap (1) to monitor the actual power shift pressure.
Note: Refer to Service Manual, RENR1998, "Engine And Pump Electronic Control System" for additional information on Service Mode.
Note: To prevent a change in power shift pressure during line relief valve adjustment, do not turn the engine OFF.
- The pressure setting for both the head end and the rod end for each cylinder is 36800 ± 1470 kPa (5350 ± 215 psi).

Note: Return main relief valve pressure to the specification after testing and adjusting any line relief valve. Refer to Testing And Adjusting, "Pressure Specifications" for the main relief valve pressure setting.
Note: In order to cancel Service Mode, depress the following three buttons on the operator monitor panel at the same time: button for fine control (4), button for user mode (5) and travel alarm cancel switch (6). Hold all three buttons down for at least three seconds. If the engine switch key is placed in the OFF position for at least 75 ± 15 seconds, Service Mode will be cancelled.
Adjust
Stick Cylinder
- To adjust the line relief valve pressure setting of the stick cylinder rod end, move the stick control lever until the stick is at the full STICK OUT position (full retraction of stick cylinder).
- Check the pressure in the stick cylinder rod end on the pressure gauge at pressure tap (3) .
- Return the stick control lever to the NEUTRAL position.
- Loosen locknut (14) or (16) on the stick line relief valve. Turn adjustment screw (15) or turn cap (17) until the pressure gauge reading at pressure tap (3) is 36800 ± 1470 kPa (5350 ± 215 psi).
- To adjust the line relief valve pressure setting of the stick cylinder head end, move the stick control lever until the stick is at the full STICK IN position (full extension of stick cylinder).
- Check the pressure in the stick cylinder head end on the pressure gauge at pressure tap (3) .

Note: If an appropriate location is not available to fully extend the boom cylinders, exchange the functions of the boom line relief valves. Remove the line relief valve for the boom cylinder head end and the line relief valve for the boom cylinder rod end from the main control valve. Exchange the location in the main relief valve of the line relief valves. Adjust the pressure of the boom line relief valve that is now attached in the head end. After completion of line relief valve adjustment, return the respective line relief valves to the original locations.
