The purpose of circuit relief valves is to relieve high pressure spikes caused by external forces when functions are in neutral.
The valves are checked and adjusted to specification to protect components from damage.
1. NOTE:
Test can also be done using monitor controller and display diagnostic system. See Monitor
Display Diagnostic System Operation . (Group 9015-20.) Only one reading at a time can be
displayed with monitor display.
Connect laptop computer to diagnostic port. See Service ADVISOR System Computer Connection . (T133991.)

For Excavator Diagnostics program select the following items from the Monitor Data Items menu:
3. Turn second adjusting plug of system relief and power boost valve in 1/2 turn to increase pressure setting. See
System Relief and Power Boost Valve Test and Adjustment for adjustment procedure. (Group 9025-25.)
4. Heat hydraulic oil to specification. See Hydraulic System Warm-Up Procedure . (Group 9025-25.)
6.

7. Adjust the circuit relief valve as needed. Turn adjusting screw IN to increase pressure setting: turn adjusting screw
OUT to decrease pressure setting. Hold screw and tighten nut to specification.
Circuit Relief Valve Pressure Change 5 200 kPa approximate per 1/4 turn
52 bar approximate per 1/4 turn
770 psi approximate per 1/4 turn
8. Check pressures again. See System Relief and Power Boost Valve Test and Adjustment . (Group 9025-25.)
