When the attachment (third) control lever is
moved to CLOSE or LOWER position, close or
lower stem (36) moves to CLOSE or LOWER
position. Pilot oil is now free to go through attach-
ment pilot valve (33) to the right end of attachment
valve spool (31). This causes the valve spool to
move to the left. The pilot oil at the left end of
attachment valve spool (31) goes through shuttle
valve (40), back to attachment pilot valve (33),
through open or raise stem (37) and onto hydraulic
tank (18).
The movement of attachment valve spool (31)
stops the flow of oil through attachment control
valve (38). Implement pump pressure increases and
opens load check valve (32). The oil from implement
pump section (27) now goes to the head end of
attachment cylinders (30) and causes the cylinder
pistons and rods to extend. The movement of the
cylinder pistons and rods pushes the oil out of the
rod end of the attachment cylinders. This oil comes
into attachment control valve (38) and goes around
all three valve spools (31), (13) and (22) on its way
back to oil filters (29) and hydraulic tank (18).
When the pressure of the oil to the head end of
the attachment cylinders gets to approximately
15500 kPa (2250 psi), the spool of sequence valve
(39) moves up. This causes oil from close or lower
stem (36) to go through sequence valve (39) and
shuttle valve (40) to the left end of attachment
valve spool (31). The springs on the attachment
valve spool cause it to move to HOLD position.
Implement pressure oil to the attachment cylin-
ders is now stopped.
When the pressure of the oil to the head end of
the attachment cylinders gets below approximately
12400 kPa ( 1800 psi), the spool of sequence valve
(39) moves down. This stops the flow of pilot oil
to the left end of attachment valve spool (31). The
valve spool again moves to the left (CLOSE or
LOWER position) and implement pressure oil
goes to the attachment cylinders.
See FO-5, STANDARD HYDRAULIC SYSTEM IN LOWER POSITION
(ENGINE OFF), located in the back of this manual.
The operation of sequence valve (39) and shuttle
valve (40) permits the operation of the lift and tilt
circuits during CLOSE or LOWER operation.
There are no detents on the attachment control.
When the attachment control lever is released, the
lever, close or lower stem (36) and attachment valve
spool (31) go back to HOLD position. The cylinder
pistons and rods are stopped and will stay in this
position until the attachment control lever is moved
again.
OPEN or RAISE Position
When the attachment control lever is moved to
OPEN or RAISE position, open or raise stem (37)
moves to OPEN or RAISE position. Pilot oil is now
free to go through attachment pilot valve (33) and
shuttle valve (40) to the left end of attachment valve
spool (31). This causes the valve spool to move to the
right. The pilot oil at the right end of attachment
valve spool (31) goes back to attachment pilot valve
(33), through close or lower stem (36) and on to
hydraulic tank (18).
The movement of attachment valve spool (31)
stops the flow of oil through attachment control
valve (38). Implement pump pressure increases and
opens load check valve (32). The oil from implement
pump section (27) now goes to the rod end of
attachment cylinders (30) and causes the cylinder
pistons and rods to retract. The movement of the
cylinder pistons and rods pushes the oil out of the
head end of the attachment cylinders. This oil comes
into attachment control valve (38) and goes around
all three valve spools on its way back to oil filters
(29) and hydraulic tank (18).
When the attachment control lever is released,
the lever, open or raise stem (37) and attachment
valve spool (31) go back to HOLD position. Move-
ment of the cylinder pistons and rods is stopped
until the attachment control valve is moved again.
