ADJUST CONTROL VALVE LINKAGE

Reconnect control linkage to valve.

Control handles should be positioned as shown.

When completing a maintenance function on the valve, perform a functional test by placing control handles in their various positions and make certain the correct operation occurs corresponding to the decals on the operator's console. Pay specific attention to the float position of the boom. Do not operate backhoe if func- tions differ from the decal.

If the functions differ from the decal, check to make sure control linkage is correctly installed and check plumbing schematics to make sure hoses are correctly connected.

Note that the lips of the seal should be toward the piston side of the guide. Install wiper (H) with lip pointed outward from guide. Slide rod guide onto rod assembly.

Install O-ring (B) and seal (A) on piston (5). Apply oil to threads on rod assembly. Slide O-ring (C) over threads. Install piston. Apply permanent type thread-locking compound to rod threads and install nut. Torque nut to 125-135 lbs-ft.
