The appearance of the hydraulic valve may vary slightly from the images contained in this manual. However, the fittings, hose connections, and cable connections remain the same. |
Adjusting Installed Hydraulic Valve
-
Strip the factory paint from the top of the existing hydraulic valve using a chemical approved for paint removal.
Note: Do not scrape the paint from the hydraulic valve. Scraping the paint may cause damage to the valve.
-
Remove the hydraulic test port fitting and Allen plugs from the existing hydraulic valve.
Note: The test port fitting will be installed on the AutoBoom® XRT hydraulic valve later in the procedure. Protect the test port fitting from dust and debris to avoid contamination of the hydraulic system.
-
Clean any remaining paint from the existing hydraulic valve, taking care to prevent paint chips from entering the open hydraulic ports.
-
Install 9/16” ID Buna-N O-rings (P/N 219-0001-015) in the open ports of the hydraulic valve.
Note: Use grease or petroleum jelly to hold the O-rings in place during the AutoBoom® XRT valve installation, taking care to avoid contamination of the inside of the open ports.
-
Blow the hydraulic port threads of any excess oil.
-
Clean excess oil, grease, and debris from the top of the hydraulic valve.
-
Clean excess hydraulic fluid from the AutoBoom® XRT valve (P/N 334-0235-004).
-
Install the supplied hex bolts in the AutoBoom® XRT valve, placing the shorter bolt in the cut-out section of the AutoBoom® XRT valve.
Installation for Machines with Existing Hydraulic Valve
On machines with existing AutoBoom® XRT valves, back the existing needle valves out completely then tighten the jam nut.
-
Carefully place the AutoBoom® XRT valve on the existing hydraulic valve, positioning it so that the cut-out section faces the accumulator.
-
Alternately tighten each bolt a small amount to a maximum of 15-20 ft. lbs. per bolt.
-
Install the hydraulic test fitting in Port GP of the AutoBoom® XRT valve.
