Hydraulic System

7. Label, disconnect and cap hydraulic hoses and

electrical plugs connected to extend lockout valve.

8. Remove nut and bolt securing extend lockout valve

to the frame. Remove the valve from the machine.

9. Wipe up any hydraulic fluid spillage in, on, near and

around the machine, work area and tools.

b. Extend Lockout Valve Disassembly, Cleaning,

Inspection and Assembly

1. Secure the extend lockout valve assembly in a

suitable bench vise if possible. Remove the solenoid
nut, coil and cartridge (6) from the valve. Remove
the pressure sense valve (7) from the valve.

2. Clean all components with a suitable cleaner

before inspection.

3. Inspect the solenoid cartridge for proper operation.

Check by shifting the spool to ensure that it is
functioning properly. Check that the spring is intact.
Inspect the cartridge interior for contamination.

4. Inspect internal passageways and the extend lockout

valve overall for wear, damage, etc. If inner surfaces
of the component DO NOT display an ultra-smooth,
polished finish, or are damaged in any way, replace
the extend lockout valve. Often, dirty hydraulic fluid
causes failure of internal seals and damage to the
polished surfaces within the valve.

Note: ALWAYS replace seals, o-rings, gaskets, etc.,
with new parts to help ensure proper sealing and
operation. Lubricate seals and o-rings with clean
hydraulic oil.

5. Install the solenoid valve.

6. Install the pressure sensing valve. Torque to 65 lb-ft

(88 Nm).

c. Extend Lockout Valve Installation

1. Place the extend lockout valve into position on the

mounting plate on the machine frame.

2. Install bolt and nut securing valve to frame.

3. Connect all the previously labeled hydraulic hoses,

fittings, solenoid wire terminal leads, etc., to the
outrigger valve.

4. Check the routing of all hoses and wiring for sharp

bends or interference with any rotating members,
and install tie wraps and/or protective conduit as
required. Tighten all hose clamps.

5. Properly connect the battery.

6. Remove the Do Not Operate Tags from both the

ignition key switch and the steering wheel.

7. Start the engine and run at approximately 1/3-1/2

throttle for about one minute without moving the
machine or operating any hydraulic functions.

8. Inspect for leaks and check the level of the hydraulic

fluid in the reservoir. Shut the engine OFF.

Note: Check for leaks and repair as required before
continuing. Add hydraulic fluid to reservoir as needed.

9. Wipe up any hydraulic fluid spillage in, on, near and

around the machine, work area and tools.

10. Install the transmission covers.

11. Close and secure the rear door.

d. Extend Lockout Valve Test

Conduct a test of the extend lockout valve.

1. Park the machine on a firm, level surface.

2. With the boom fully retracted and lowered, lower

the outriggers.

3. Extend the boom to 54 ft. The boom should extend

fully and should not stop at 42 ft.

General Cylinder Instructions

a. Cylinder Removal

1. Remove any attachment from the machine. Park the

machine on a firm level surface and fully retract the
boom. Allow sufficient work space around the
hydraulic cylinder being removed. Support the boom
if the lift/lower cylinder is being removed. Place the
travel select lever in (N) NEUTRAL, engage the park
brake, shut the engine OFF and chock wheels.

2. Place a Do Not Operate Tag on both the ignition key

switch and the steering wheel, stating that the
machine should not be operated.

3. Open the rear door. Allow the system fluids to cool.
