(1) A New specification is the performance that can be expected for a new machine. A “Rebuild” specification is the performance

that can be expected after rebuilding the components of a system. (2) Performance beyond “Service Limit” specifications is an indication of the following problems: improper adjustment, wear,

damage of relief valves and damage of pumps.

Table 2 Relief Valves

Pressure Change With One Turn Of Adjustment Screw

Main valves

14400 kPa (2100 psi)

Line relief valve

24000 kPa (3480 psi)

Swing relief valve

6800 kPa (985 psi)

Travel crossover relief valve

3050 kPa (440 psi)

Pilot pressure reducing valve

11000 kPa (1595 psi)

Note: Pressure values in Table 2 are approximate values. Use a pressure gauge for adjustment. Note: Normal operations of the engine and pumps are necessary for the pressure adjustments. If the results of the pressure adjustment are not correct, then check the engine and the pump characteristic curve. Slow output flow from the pump is an indication of air in the hydraulic system. Make sure that no air is present in the hydraulic system. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Main Hydraulic Pump Air Purge". Copyright 1993 - 2018 Caterpillar Inc. All Rights Reserved.
