PRESSURE MEASUREMENT
Always make the adjustments with the manometer in
place.
•
The main pressure is measured from the measuring
point in the control valve's inlet section.
•
Adjustments and inspections for each movement:
• Set the main pressure relief valve to 5 bar
above the value set for the protective valve.
• Perform the movement, and check and adjust
the pressure if necessary.
• Finish by adjusting the main pressure to the set
value.
•
Pressure measurements are to be performed at the
normal operating temperature and at the normal
flow rate.
•
The free flow pressure can be read from the ma-
nometer when the flow of oil is directed through
the valve.
REPAIR WELDING
If welding is required for modifying or repairing the
crane, note the following:
•
The welder must be qualified: welding grade 3. The-
re must be no root defects.
•
Remove paint and any oil from the location to be
welded.
•
Connect the ground terminal directly to the piece
to be welded – there must be no joints in between.
•
Use OK 48.00 or equivalent electrodes. The
electrodes must be dry.
•
Improperly welded structures can get fractured.
