WARNING
Before attempting any hydraulic pressure settings, make sure engine is shut off, engine key removed and in
your possession, hydraulic oil is clean, hydraulic tank is 7/8 full, and the machine has been pre-run to warm the
hydraulic oil. To correctly check relief valve pressure, gauge MUST
be installed correctly.
1. First put the control handle in the off position.
2. Disconnect hydraulic hose going from autofeed plus block to feedwheel control valve at the feedwheel
control valve end.
. Leave all other hydraulic hoses connected.
. Install pressure gauge in port on feedwheel control valve where you disconnected the hose and plug the
end of the hose.
. Start engine with the control handle in the off position.
6. Adjust engine to full throttle.
7. Engage control handle to the normal operating position to activate a reading on the pressure gauge.
8. Pressure gauge should read maximum specified PSI (bar).
ONLY ENGAGE CONTROL HANDLE FOR 4-5 SECONDS TO SET PRESSURE OR YOU MAY
DAMAGE HYDRAULICS.
9. Locate relief next to autofeed solenoid, loosen jam nut, use an allen wrench to readjust relief pressure
setting if needed, and then retighten jam nut.
10. Reassemble hose from autofeed plus block to feedwheel control valve.
11. Check for hydraulic leaks.
12. Relief valve pressure should be checked and/or readjusted every month for best performance.
