TEST AND ADJUST OIL PRESSURE IN WORK EQUIPMENT, SWING,
AND TRAVEL CIRCUITS
METHOD FOR ADJUSTING BOOM LOWER RELIEF PRESSURE (HIGH PRES-
SURE SET SIDE)
When high pressure relief pressure for the boom LOWER
is not normal, adjust the high pressure side of the suction
safety valve (8) for boom LOWER.
When high pressure relief pressure is generated, the pilot
pressure does not act on the selector port and the ma-
chine push-up switch is enabled.
1.
Disconnect the pilot hose (9).
2.
Loosen the lock nut (11) with the holder (10) fixed.
3.
Turn the holder (10) to adjust the pressure.
REMARK
• The pressure is increased as the holder (10) is turned
to the right. The pressure is decreased as it is turned to
the left.
• Quantity of pressure adjustment per turn of the holder
(10): Approx. 25.3 MPa {258 kg/cm
4.
Tighten the lock nut (11) with the holder (10) fixed.
3
Lock nut (11): 
93 to 123 Nm {9.5 to 12.5 kgm} 
5.
Connect the pilot hose (9).
After the adjustment, recheck the oil pressure according to the testing procedure previously described.
METHOD FOR ADJUSTING BOOM LOWER RELIEF PRESSURE (LOW PRES-
SURE SET SIDE)

side) is not normal, or when the pressure on the high pres-
sure set side is adjusted, adjust the low pressure set side
of the suction safety valve (8) for boom LOWER according
to the following procedure.
The machine push-up switch is turned off. The pilot pres-
