TIMBER AX
DEALER PRE-DELIVERY SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before hooking up to Timber AX, Check the relief valve setting of the auxiliary
hydraulic circuit on the loader. Adapt a hydraulic pressure gauge to the
appropriate quick coupler and install in the pressure outlet of the high flow
hydraulic circuit. Engage the switch or lever for the auxiliary hydraulic circuit
with engine running at approximately half throttle and record the PSI reading.
Compare to factory specs. If reading falls short of factory specifications you
will need to address that with the loader’s manufacturer.
2. After establishing the relief setting of the loader being used, place a mark
(paint stripe or colored tape) on the face of the AX pressure gauge at a
reading approximately 500 PSI less than the relief setting and instruct the
operator to try to avoid operating above that mark. This will help him operate
more efficiently and help to avoid overheating the hydraulic oil.
3. Hook loader up to Timber AX mount plate. Install 2 hoses ( ¾ x
approximately 7ft ) from the pressure side of the loader to the rear port of the
Timber AX valve, and from the front port of the valve back to the return side of
the auxiliary outlets. ( NOTE: On High Pressure Models AXH-26 / -27,
presssure line goes to port “B” and port “A” is the return line back to the
loader.) If possible, route the hoses down the back of the machine to a point
even with the mounting plate hinge point, then back up to the outlets. This
allows the hoses to bend at the hinge point rather than stretching, shortening,
and getting tangled as the machine is rotated. Secure with straps to avoid
pinch points.
4. Start machine and check that rotor shaft is rotating the correct direction. The
end of the rotor shaft is visible on the right end of the machine. Refer to the
arrow on the rotation decal to be sure rotor is turning Counter Clockwise
looking at the right end of the machine.
5. Use a electronic or mechanical tachometer ( access thru the bearing guard )
to check the rotor speed with engine at full throttle. Rotor RPM should
approximately match the speed called for on the Motor Selection Chart for the
GPM specified for the loader being used. The rotor RPM should fall within a
range of 200 RPM higher than the goal, or 100 RPM less than the goal. If it is
outside this recommended range, it may be necessary to disconnect the AX
and test the hydraulic output of the loader with a Flow Meter to see if it
corresponds with the factory specifications. If performance falls short, you
may need to contact loader manufacturer for assistance, or call Loftness for
other options.
6. Set the Push Bar in it’s most forward position. This is the most desirable set-
up for almost all situations.
7. The TIMBER AX should be ready to cut.
