Problem:

The pistons in the regulators for the main hydraulic pumps of the listed excavators may experience
rapid wear or may break in some applications. The excavators affected are generally equipped with
the single action circuit and use an auxiliary tool that requests a high frequency of ON-OFF operation.
The location of the affected pistons are shown in Illustration 1. Illustration 1.

Solution:

If the problem is observed in the listed 300A Family Excavators, the following steps can be taken:

1. If the auxiliary tool is used with one-pump flow, install a 4I-7836 Valve Group (Shockless) at the
bottom of the auxiliary valve stem. The valve group should first be modified by replacing the plunger
with a 099-6647 Plunger which has a 0.9 mm (.04 in) diameter orifice.

2. If the auxiliary tool is used with two-pump flow, install 4I-7836 Valve Groups (Shockless) at the
bottom of the auxiliary valve stem and at the bottom of the BOOM II stem. The valve groups should
first be modified by replacing the plunger with a 099-6647 Plunger which has a 0.9 mm (.04 in)
diameter orifice.
