  • Page 27 FRONT LOADER LA1403, WSM Control Lever at “UP” Position 1. When the hydraulic control lever is set to the “UP” position, the spool (5) of the boom control valve (3) moves to the right, which forms oil passages between passage 1 (9) and B1 port, also between A1 port and P.B.
  • Page 28 FRONT LOADER LA1403, WSM Control Lever at “DOWN” Position 1. When the hydraulic control lever is set to the “DOWN” position, the spool (5) moves to the left, which forms oil passages between passage 1 (9) and A1 port, also between B1 port and P.B. passage 1 (7).
  • Page 29 FRONT LOADER LA1403, WSM Control Lever at “FLOAT” Position 1. When the hydraulic control lever is set to the “FLOAT” position, the spool (5) moves further to the left from the “DOWN” position and is retained by the detent mechanism (10). 2.
  • Page 30 FRONT LOADER LA1403, WSM Control Lever at “ROLL-BACK” Position 1. When the hydraulic control lever is set to the “ROLL- BACK” position, the spool (6) of the bucket control valve (2) moves to the left, which forms oil passages between passage 2 (10) and B2 port, also between A2 port and T port.
  • Page 31 FRONT LOADER LA1403, WSM Control Lever at “DUMP” Position 1. When the hydraulic control lever is set to the “DUMP” position, the spool (6) of the bucket control valve (2) moves to the right, which forms oil passages among passage 2 (7), A2 port and B2 port. 2.
  • Page 32: Relief Valve

    FRONT LOADER LA1403, WSM [4] RELIEF VALVE The relief valve is adopted in the loader control valve. This relief valve is pilot operated type, it is suitable for a high pressure and large volumetric flow with better pressure override performance than direct acting relief valves.
  • Page 33 FRONT LOADER LA1403, WSM Relief Operation [Step 1] The relief valve is in communication between the high pressure port HP and low pressure chamber LP. Oil is admitted through the hole in piston poppet (4) and because of the differential area between diameter A and B relief valve poppet (1) and check valve poppet (2) are tightly seated as shown in the figure.
  • Page 34 FRONT LOADER LA1403, WSM Anti-cavitation Operation The anti-void unit supplies oil to the high pressure port HP when cavitation has occurred. A lower pressure exists in the port HP compared to the low pressure chamber LP. The difference between the effective area of diameter A and C causes imbalance of the check valve poppet (1) unseats, thus allowing oil from the low pressure chamber LP to enter the port HP and fill the...

  • Page 78 FRONT LOADER LA1403, WSM (2) Overload Relief Valve Overload relief valve in this control valve is a combination valve combining a relief operation and anti- cavitation operation. Relief Operation When the control valve is in the neutral position, both cylinder ports of control valve are blocked by the spool. If an external load is imposed on the cylinder, pressure builds in the circuit.
