Relief Valve Testing and Adjustment 31
RELIEF VALVE TESTING AND ADJUSTMENT
WARNING: Always retract wings fully,
lower the plow to the ground and re-
lieve pressure before removing any
fittings, hoses or caps. Allow the system to
cool down before draining oil or handling
system components. Serious burns can re-
sult from contact with hot oil. FAILURE TO
HEED CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH.
TEST CONDITIONS
WARNING: Vehicle engine must be
running for this procedure. Make sure
that there is adequate ventilation in
test area and/or that vehicle exhaust is vent-
ed outside of test area building. FAILURE TO
HEED CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH.
- Vehicle battery is fully charged.
- Hydraulic oil level is to “Fill Line.”
PROCEDURE
Park vehicle in an area with adequate ventila-
tion and with enough room to safely raise the
plow. Set park brake. Retract wings fully and
lower the plow to the ground. Remove pump
cover.

lieve pressure before removing any fit
-
tings, hoses or caps. FAILURE TO HEED CAN
RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Carefully disconnect the hydraulic fitting from ei
-
ther port W2 (left wing) or port W1 (right wing)
depending on which relief valve is being tested.
Using the proper fittings, install a pressure gauge
as shown. See photo 4130.
Start the vehicle and raise the plow slightly.
While holding the joystick in the SCOOP posi-
tion, record the pressure reading.
A change in pitch from the hydraulic motor should
be heard and a pressure of 2700 PSI +/- 100
should be indicated on the pressure gauge.
If pressure readings are high or low, refer to the
following adjustment procedures.
