load does not move
Load greater than cylinder capacity at full pressure
Flow to cylinder blocked
Reduce load or add cylinder capacity
Check hydraulic couplers for full engagement
Cylinder drifts back on its own
External system leak
Internal leak in a system component
Non-load holding valve used
Inspect all hydraulic connections and replace or repair
See authorized service center

See authorized service center
Double-acting cylinder will not
return
Return flow restricted or blocked
Valve malfunction
Check couplers for full engagement
See authorized service center

Advance or retract flow restricted
High ambient temperature
Check couplers for full engagement
Install heat exchanger for hydraulic oil
Pump pressure goes above
“PRESR A” or “PRESR B” value
Cylinder comes to a sudden stop (i.e., strokes out)
Set user adjustable relief valve 200 psi above “PRESR A”
or “PRESR B” value to redirect excess oil flow
Dwell Mode does not work
correctly
