Safety valves
The safety valves are intended to prevent the front equip-
ment from dropping down in the event of a breakage or
burst of a hose in the hydraulic lines of boom and arm.
The safety valves keep the front equipment in the posi-
tion at the time of breakage, and thus allow the operator
to slowly lower the attachment to the ground using the left
and right control levers.
Moreover, the safety valves allow an operator to keep the
front equipment in the selected operating position, reduc-
ing the leakages that occur in the neutral position of the
boom spool and the arm spool in the main control valve.
NOTICE: prior to starting any handling of suspended
loads check that the valves do not show clear evidence
of damages or abnormal noises. In the event abnormal
conditions are found, contact the NEW HOLLAND CON-
STRUCTION. dealer.
NOTICE: the pressure setting of the safety valves must
be checked every 6 months. Consult the NEW HOLLAND
CONSTRUCTION dealer.
