    Komatsu, c30-1 which

    There’s an issue because we’re not getting any return oil on the hydraulic steering pilot control circut. The other pump is working fine for the gear pump . So my best guess is that there’s something backing up one of those valves for the travel . Everything works it just won’t move . It builds...

    PC35 Hydro safety valve

    Morning all, looking at the drawings of this machine it looks like it is called the safety valve. There is pretty much no info I have been able to find. Whenever I type something in I get a main pressure relief valve which is not the same thing from my understanding. I am curious what this valve...

    How to Determine Spool Orientation in Hydraulic Valve (Rebuilding Main Control Valve)

    I'm rebuilding the main control valve in my Cat 304CR (NAD00987) and I'm having trouble determining which way to install the spools. Some of the spools look like they're the same on each end -- others are clearly meant to be installed in a particular orientation. All of the spools have a...

    Case 1840 lift cylinder issue

    When trying to back blade using down pressure, my 1840 (4000 hrs) lift cylinders will occasionally "bounce", as in retract and then spring back. It also acts up when I tilt forward and apply down pressure with the tilt cylinders as well. If I don't apply down pressure with the lift cylinders...

    JLG 450A - valve ID

    I bought a JLG 450A that I think has some valves in the wrong position, or an incorrect valve installed. But the JLG part numbers in the manual don't match the numbers printed on the valves, which are Hydraforce part numbers (JLG's manufacturer for the OEM values), so I can't verify that they're...

    My 2005 JD 410G back hoe stopped going forward. I moved it about 50 feet and it ran strong and accelerated normally. I stopped and put it in neutral and turned the e-brake on. I then turned the e-brake off and shifted into forward and nothing happened. It also goes in reverse when I have it in...

    939C bucket valve sticking

    Hi all, got a CAT 939 here. When you raise the bucket, if you pull far enough on the joystick (not much), it locks in like the float mechanism does. It will do it when curling the bucket too. I'm not sure what the pilot pressure is as I don't have a gauge to read it but I'm really starting to...
