Personal injury can result from hydraulic oil pressure and hot oil.
Hydraulic oil pressure can remain in the hydraulic system after the
engine has been stopped. Serious injury can be caused if this pressure is
not released before any service is done on the hydraulic system.
Make sure all of the work tools have been lowered to the ground, and
the oil is cool before removing any components or lines. Remove the oil
filler cap only when the engine is stopped, and the filler cap is cool
enough to touch with your bare hand.

NOTICE
Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during
performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting, and repair
of the product. Be prepared to collect the fluid with suitable containers
before opening any compartment or disassembling any component
containing fluids.
Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, "Dealer Service Tool

Catalog" for tools and supplies suitable to collect and contain fluids on
Cat products.
Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and mandates.
NOTICE
The line relief is set higher than the main relief. Do not increase the
main relief setting to check the line relief setting. Damage to the
hydraulic system may result.
NOTICE
For all relief valve tests, the recommended method to test a relief valve
is to remove the valve from the machine and use a test bench to test
and adjust the valve. This will help reduce hydraulic oil contamination
in the hydraulic system.

Pressure for the Line Relief Valve (Tilt)
Line Relief Valve Pressure (1)

Head End
15500 ± 350 kPa (2250 ± 50 psi)

Rod End
34500 ± 350 kPa (5000 ± 50 psi)
( 1 ) The pressure for the line relief valve is set at a flow of 38 L/min (10 US gpm).
Machine Preparation
Prepare the machine for testing by completing the procedure that is specified in the Service Manual
module Testing and Adjusting, "Machine Preparation for Troubleshooting" for the machine that is being
serviced.
Testing and Adjusting Procedure for the Head End Line Relief
Valve
1. Start the machine.
2. Warm the hydraulic oil 63° ± 25°C (145° ± 45°F).
3. Lower the work tool to the ground.
4. Turn the engine start switch to the OFF position.

5. Connect test gauge (B) to test gauge hose (A) . Install test gauge hose (A) on the pressure tap.
Note: The pressure tap is located behind the cab under the access door on the right side.
7. Raise the boom until the boom is in the horizontal position.
8. Return the lift control lever to the HOLD position.
9. Tilt the bucket forward to the full DUMP position.
10. Return the tilt control lever to the HOLD position.
11. Enter the implement hydraulic service mode.
ReferenceFor additional information about the implement hydraulic service mode, refer to the
Troubleshooting Testing and Adjusting, "Implement Hydraulic Service Mode" for the machine
that is being serviced.
Note: The implement pump should be at minimum flow for the line relief valve test.
12. Increase engine speed to high idle.
13. Move the tilt control lever to the full DUMP position. Hold the tilt lever in this position.
Note: Do not hold relief pressure for more than 10 seconds at a time.
14. Record the pressure reading from test gauge (B) .
16. The pressure setting should be 15500 ± 350 kPa (2250 ± 50 psi). If the pressure is correct proceed
to Step 19.
If the pressure setting is not correct, perform the following procedure in order to adjust the line
relief valve.
Main Control Valve
(1) Line relief valve (lower)
(2) Line relief valve (tilt back)
(3) Line relief valve (auxiliary rod end)
(4) Main relief valve
(5) Line relief valve (auxiliary head end)
(6) Line relief valve (dump)
(7) Line relief valve (raise)

(8) Adjustment screw. (9) Locking nut.
17. Adjust the line relief valve.
a. Loosen locking nut (9) .
b. Turn adjustment screw (8) in order to adjust the pressure setting. Turn adjustment screw
clockwise in order to increase the pressure setting. Turn the adjustment screw
counterclockwise in order to decrease the pressure setting.
c. Hold adjustment screw (8) , and tighten locking nut (9) . Torque for the locking nut is 33 ±
5 N·m (24 ± 4 lb ft).
18. Repeat Steps 13 through 17, as needed.
21. Remove test gauge hose (A) from the machine.

12. Enter the implement hydraulic service mode.
ReferenceFor additional information about the implement hydraulic service mode, refer to the
Troubleshooting Testing and Adjusting, "Implement Hydraulic Service Mode" for the machine
