Had to replace a main relief valve on this machine this week.
I am a little unsure the adjustment. I understand the high side relief, but the low side relief is a bit unclear in the tech manual.
Perhaps I just got tired of flipping through chapters (never been a fan of how Hitachi manuals are set up in the first place) I know how to adjust both high and low on the relief valve, I just don't know the values or steps for the low side.
Just to double check with everybody this is how the high side is done:
Plumb a gauge into the pump output pressure port (doesn't matter pump one or two)
Operate the function with the highest relief setting and hold against relief (so boom up. Book says (iirc) 4850 psi and 5350 with power boost)
Adjust lower section of relief valve to spec. Book says a quarter turn is 1030 psi, half turn is 2060 psi.
I get that. Let me know if I don't.
I can't seem to find how to do the low side
