Adjusting The Perkins Hydraulics - Perkins D6500 Installation & Operational Manual

Adjusting the Speed
Single Diverter: D63237s
Double Diverter: D63411s
This valve's adjustment controls the
flow going to the lifter. The flow
controls the speed of the lifter.
To adjust, turn off the system and
loosen the locking nut. Turn the
adjustment screw clockwise all the
way in. This will stop flow to the
lifter completely. From this
position, make counter-clockwise
adjustments ½ turn at a time.
When the correct position is found,
tighten the locking nut to hold the
adjustment in place.
Troubleshooting the Diverter Valve
This diverter valve does not affect lifting power / weight capacity!
Only check this valve if your lifter stops moving, or moves to fast or too slow.
Maintaining the Diverter Valve
The valve requires no periodic maintenance.
If a problem is thought to exist in the diverter valve, turn the system off and check the cartridge by
unscrewing either of the large caps from the ends and removing the cartridge. The cartridge may then
be cleaned and inspected. Flush the valve out to remove any contaminants, return the cartridge and
reinstall.
