Hydraulic oil pressure can remain in the hydraulic oil system on this machine after the engine and pump have been stopped. Serious injury can be caused if this pressure is not released before any service is done on the hydraulic systems. To prevent possible injury, refer to the procedure in Testing and Adjusting Manual, "Release of Pressure in the Hydraulic System". When possible, the bucket must always be lowered to the ground before service is started. When it is necessary for the boom to be in the raised position while tests or adjustments are done, be sure that the boom, stick and bucket have correct support. Be sure the swing parking brakes and the travel parking brakes are on and the brake release lines are disconnected and plugged. Always move the machine to a location away from the travel of other machines. Be sure that other personnel are not near the machine when the engine is running and tests or adjustments are being made. |

(1) Line to the regulator control valves on the implement pumps |
- Disconnect line (1) from the proportional reducing solenoid valve.
- Install a 8T-8902 Tee between line (1) and the solenoid valve.
- Install a 6V-3965 Nipple in the tee.
- Connect the hose assembly to the tee and a 8T-0855 Pressure Gauge .
- Start the engine.
- Set the throttle switch to position 1. Read the pressure gauge. The pressure should be 815 ± 30 kPa (118 ± 4 psi).
- Set the throttle switch to position 10. Read the pressure gauge. The pressure should be 2400 ± 50 kPa (350 ± 7 psi).
