Tailgate Work Circuit
The tailgate work circuit (see Figure 3-55) consists of two double acting hydraulic cylinders, one
valve bank section with on/off solenoid, two pilot operated check valves and two secondary port
relief valves.
Body Hoist Work Circuit
The body hoist work circuit (see Figure 3-55) consists of one single acting cylinder, one valve bank
section with on/off solenoid, two velocity check valves and two secondary port relief valves.
However, only one relief valve is truly utilized (body UP). The other hydraulic function (body
DOWN) lowers on the principal of gravity and the physical weight of the body thus enabling the relief
port to be set at the very minimum.
