Personal injury or death can result from sudden machine movement. Sudden movement of the machine can cause injury to persons on or near the machine. To prevent injury or death, make sure that the area around the machine is clear of personnel and obstructions before operating the machine. |
Personal injury can result from hydraulic oil pressure and hot oil. Hydraulic oil pressure can remain in the hydraulic system after the engine has been stopped. Serious injury can be caused if this pressure is not released before any service is done on the hydraulic system. Make sure all of the attachments have been lowered, and the oil is cool before removing any components or lines. Remove the oil filler cap only when the engine is stopped, and the filler cap is cool enough to touch with your bare hand. |

Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting and repair of the machine. Be prepared to collect the fluid with suitable containers before opening any compartment or disassembling any component containing fluids. Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, "Caterpillar Tools and Shop Products Guide", for tools and supplies suitable to collect and contain fluids in Caterpillar machines. Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and mandates. |

- Drive the machine to a smooth, horizontal surface.
- Move propulsion lever (2) to the NEUTRAL position.
Illustration 1 | g01158073 |
- Rotate speed dial (3) to the MINIMUM position.
- Move parking brake switch (4) to the ON position.
- Move screed lower switch (6) to the DOWN position. Lower the screed to the ground.
- Move throttle control switch (5) to the LOW IDLE position. Hold the switch in this position for less than 1 second.
- After the engine reaches low idle, move engine start switch (1) to the OFF position.
- Move key switch (7) to the OFF position.
Illustration 2 | g01158240 |
- Open the pump compartment, on the left side of the machine.
- Disconnect the charge supply hose to the right conveyor and auger pump at fitting (9) from tee fitting (8). Plug fitting (9) with Tool (D) and Tool (E). Cap tee fitting (8) with Tool (F) .
Illustration 3 | g01163410 |
- Install Tool (C) on pressure tap (10). Use Tool (B) in order to connect Tool (C) to Tool (A) .
Illustration 4 | g01163411 |
- Move key switch (7) to the ON position. Move engine start switch (1) to the START position. Release the engine start switch after the engine starts.
- Move throttle control switch (5) to the HIGH IDLE position. Hold the switch in this position for less than 1 second. The engine speed should increase to 2310 rpm.
- Monitor the hydraulic oil temperature with Tool (J). Operate the machine until the oil temperature reaches 43 ± 5.6°C (110 ± 10°F).
- With propulsion lever (2) in the NEUTRAL position and the engine at high idle, read the pressure on Tool (A). The pressure should be 2240 ± 172 kPa (325 ± 25 psi).
- Stop the engine. Refer to Step 6 through Step 8.
- If the pressure is not within the specified range, go to Step 18. If the pressure is within the specified range, go to Step 20.
- Loosen locknut (11) on the charge relief valve of the left conveyor and auger pump. In order to increase pressure, rotate adjustment screw (12) clockwise. In order to decrease pressure, rotate the adjustment screw counterclockwise.
Illustration 5 | g01163416 |
- Hold adjustment screw (12) in place. Tighten locknut (11). Go to Step 12.
- Allow the hydraulic oil to cool before continuing with the testing and adjusting of the right conveyor and auger pump.
- Disconnect the charge supply hose at fitting (13) from tee fitting (8). Cap the tee fitting with Tool (F) .
Illustration 6 | g01163418 |
