: Pressure

is checked by mounting the

manometer in the female

auxiliary hydraulics quick

coupling, with full revs and by

turning the aux. hydraulics

control lever. The presure

setting is 185 bar.

Drive pressure:

Can not be

measured. If the pressures are

clearly wrong one must change

the pressure relief cartridges

which have fixed pressure

setting.

It is recommended pressures should only be checked

by a competent and experienced technician

Call

your AVANT dealer if you need assistance.

9. ADJUST PRESSURE OF HYDRAULIC

SYSTEM

If the pressure of hydraulic system does not seem to

be correct or pressure check indicates that the pressure

is wrong, it can be adjusted. Following pictures show

the pressure adjusting points.

Boom movements

: Pressure

is adjusted from the pressure

relief valve at the main control

valve. Pressure relief valve is

the first section of the control

valve, in front of the first valve

segment. Adjust by turning the

hexagonal head screw.

Auxiliary hydraulics

: Pressure

is adjusted from the pressure

relief valve behind the left front

wheel. Adjust by turning the

hexagonal head screw.

Drive hydraulics:

Can not be

adjusted. If the pressures are

clearly wrong one must change

the pressure relief cartridges

which have fixed pressure

setting.

10. GREASING OF THE MACHINE

Greasing of pivot points is very important in order to

avoid wear. Most of the greasing points are on the

loader boom. There are altogether 10 grease nipples

on the loader. The pictures on page 20 shows the

location of grease nipples.
