TM 5-3805-258-24-1H Y D R A U L I C S Y S T E MS Y S T E M S O P E R A T I O NDUMP OperationWhen the tilt control lever is moved to DUMPposition, dump stem (11) moves to DUMP position.There is no detent for this position. Pilot oil is nowfree to go through lift and tilt pilot valve (5) to theright end of tilt valve spool (13). The tilt valve spoolmoves to the left. The pilot oil at the left end of tiltvalve spool (13) goes back to tilt back stem (12) andon to hydraulic tank (18).The movement of tilt valve spool (13) stops theflow of oil through lift and tilt control valve (26).Implement pump pressure increases and opens loadcheck valve (9). The oil from implement pump sec-tion (27) now goes to the rod end of tilt cylinder (1)and causes the cylinder piston and rod to retract. TheZ-bar linkage causes the bucket to dump. The move-ment of the cylinder piston and rod pushes the oil outof the head end of the tilt cylinder. This oil comes intolift and tilt control valve (26) and goes around bothvalve spools (13) and (22) on its way back to oilfilters (29) and hydraulic tank (18).When the tilt control lever is released, the leverand dump stem (11) go back to HOLD position. Theflow of pilot oil through lift and tilt pilot valve (5) isstopped. The springs on tilt valve spool (13) move thevalve spool back to HOLD position. The pilot oil atthe right end of the tilt valve spool goes back to dumpstem (11) and on to hydraulic tank (18).The implement oil in tilt cylinder (1) is held by tiltvalve spool (13) and movement of the cylinder pistonand rod stops. The bucket is held in the dumpedposition until the tilt control lever is moved again.DUMP Operation With Engine OffWhen the lift arms are raised, the bucket can bedumped with the engine off. The pilot oil supplycomes from the head end of the lift cylinders. This oilgoes through check valve (14) to selector and pres-sure control valve (10) which decreases the pressureof the oil to approximately 1030 kPa (150 psi). Theoil then goes to lift and tilt pilot valve (5). When thetilt control lever is moved to DUMP position, dumpstem (11) moves to DUMP position. The oil goes totilt valve spool (13) and moves it to DUMP position.The head end of tilt cylinder (1) is now open tohydraulic tank (18). Make-up valve (8) opens so thatthe rod end of tilt cylinder (1) is also open to hydrau-lic tank (18). The weight of the bucket causes thebucket to dump.LIFT CIRCUITRAISE OperationWhen the engine is running with the control levers inHOLD position, pilot pump section (19) takes oil fromhydraulic tank (18) and sends it first to pilot sectionrelief valve (17) which controls the maximum pressurein the pilot system. The pilot oil flow then divides. Someoil goes through line (16) to the hand metering unit ofthe steering system. Some oil goes through check valve(15) and selector and pressure control valve (10) to liftand tilt pilot valve (5). The valve stems in the pilot valvestop the flow of oil in HOLD position. The oil from pilotpump section (19) goes through pilot section reliefvalve (17) through oil filters (29) and back into hydrau-lic tank (18).At the same time, steering pump section (20)sends oil through line (23) to the steering controlvalve of the steering system. Also, implement pumpsection (27) sends oil to main relief valve (4) whichcontrols the maximum pressure in the implement oilsystem. The oil then goes through lift and tilt controlvalve (26) because both valve spools are in HOLDposition. The oil then goes through oil filters (29) andback into hydraulic tank (18).When the lift control lever is moved to RAISE de-tent position, lift stem (7) moves to RAISE position.Pilot oil is now free to go through lift and tilt pilot valve(5) to the left end of lift valve spool (22). This causesthe lift valve spool to move to the right. The pilot oil atthe right end of lift valve spool (22) goes back to lowerstem (6) and on to hydraulic tank (18).The movement of lift valve spool (22) stops the flowof oil through lift and tilt control valve (26). Implementpump pressure increases and opens load check valve(25). The oil from implement pump section (27) nowgoes to the head end of lift cylinders (21) and causes thecylinder pistons and rods to extend. The lift arms causethe bucket to lift. The movement of the cylinder pistonsand rods pushes the oil out of the rod end of the liftcylinders. This oil comes into lift and tilt control valve(26) and goes around lift valve spool (22) on its wayback to oil filters (29) and hydraulic tank (18).When the lift control lever is moved out of RAISEdetent position (either manually or by the lift kickoutmechanism), the lever and lift stem (7) go back toHOLD position. The flow of pilot oil through lift andtilt pilot valve (5) is stopped. The springs on lift valvespool (22) move the valve spool back to HOLD posi-3-112
