Introduction
Safety Precautions
Series 51 Electrohydraulic Proportional Controls Service Manual
Always consider safety precautions before beginning a service procedure. Protect yourself and others
from injury. Take the following general precautions whenever servicing a hydraulic system.
Unintended Machine Movement
Warning
Unintended movement of the machine or mechanism may cause injury to the technician or bystanders.
To protect against unintended movement, secure the machine or disable/disconnect the mechanism
while servicing.
Flammable Cleaning Solvents
Warning
Some cleaning solvents are flammable. To avoid possible fire, do not use cleaning solvents in an area
where a source of ignition may be present.
Fluid Under Pressure
Warning
Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate your skin causing serious
injury and/or infection. This fluid may also be hot enough to cause burns. Use caution when dealing with
hydraulic fluid under pressure. Relieve pressure in the system before removing hoses, fittings, gauges, or
components. Never use your hand or any other body part to check for leaks in a pressurized line. Seek
medical attention immediately if you are cut by hydraulic fluid.
Personal Safety
Warning
Protect yourself from injury. Use proper safety equipment, including safety glasses, at all times.
Hazardous Material
Warning
Hydraulic fluid contains hazardous material. Avoid prolonged contact with hydraulic fluid. Always
dispose of used hydraulic fluid according to state, and federal environmental regulations.

Introduction
General Instructions
Series 51 Electrohydraulic Proportional Controls Service Manual
Keep it Clean
You can complete many repairs or adjustments without removing the unit from the machine, if the unit is
accessible and you can thoroughly clean it before beginning any procedures.
Cleanliness is a primary means of assuring satisfactory motor life on either new or repaired units. Clean
the outside of the motor thoroughly before disassembly. Take care to avoid contamination of the system
ports. Cleaning parts with a clean solvent wash and air drying is usually adequate.
As with any precision equipment, keep all parts free of foreign materials and chemicals. Protect all
exposed sealing surfaces and open cavities from damage and foreign material. Cap all hoses after
removal, and plug all open ports. Cover any unattended parts with a protective layer of plastic.
Inspect for System Contamination
Inspect the motor for signs of system contamination. If you find contamination, fully disassemble, clean
and inspect all components of the motor.
Replace the O-rings and Gaskets
Replace all O-rings and gaskets. Discard them only after you make certain that you have the correct
replacement parts. Lightly lubricate all O-rings with clean petroleum jelly before assembly.
General Description
Lubricate all Moving Parts
During reassembly, coat all moving parts with a film of clean hydraulic oil. This helps lubricate the
surfaces during start-up.
For fluid quality requirements, refer to Hydraulic Fluids and Lubricants, Technical Information 520L0463.
Torque Procedure
During reassembly, cross torque all retaining screws to the given value. Do not overtorque.
Overview
Electrohydraulic proportional controls infinitely vary motor displacement between maximum and
minimum. They do this by shifting the 4-way valve. The spool position shifts with an
electric pressure-reducing valve. It varies signal pressure on the end of the 4-way valve (D7, D8
•
controls), or
electrically varied differential pressure on the ends of a piston connected to the 4‑way valve (EP, EQ,
•
ER, ES, ED, EE controls), or
electric proportional solenoid acting directly on the 4-way valve (A7, L1, L2, L7 controls).
•
Multifunction Block
Some of the electrohydraulic proportional controls are used in conjunction with the multifunction block.
The multifunction block is a manifold with a shuttle valve that routes high loop (system pressure) from
port A or B to the 4-way valve while routing the low loop (stystem pressure) to the PCOR valve. The 4-way
valve directs this pressure to the ends of the servo piston to change displacement. The multifunction
block may also provides the pressure compensating override (PCOR) option that regulates system
pressure.

Introduction
Series 51 Electrohydraulic Proportional Controls Service Manual
Pressure Compensating OverRide (PCOR) Option
The PCOR function allows the motor to match its displacement to the system load. The PCOR overrides
the control command allowing the motor to increase displacement when system pressure reaches a set
level due to load. This permits the motor to regulate system pressure by modulating the displacement of
the rotating group. As displacement increases, so does available torque while output speed decreases
and system pressure remains nearly constant at the PCOR setting.
The PCOR setting pressure is adjustable from 110 to 370 bar [1595 to 5365 psi]. Optional orifices at
locations T4, T5, T6, U6, and U7 regulate the speed of the PCOR operation.
PCOR
Brake Pressure Defeat (BPD) option
The PCOR function can be equipped with a brake pressure defeat (BPD) option that defeats the PCOR
operation during dynamic braking. A shuttle spool in the multifunction block in front of the PCOR valve
directs only acceleration system pressure to the PCOR. During deceleration, the high dynamic braking
pressure is blocked from the PCOR. This limits rapid and uncontrolled pressures or engine over-speeding
while the vehicle/machine is slowing down. External hydraulic signal pressures fed to ports XA or XB are
essential to operate the BPD spool. PCOR operation on one-system pressure side is also an option.

Introduction
Threshold and Ramp Springs
A threshold spring and ramp spring(s) act on the opposite end of the 4-way valve. The threshold
adjustment screw (S100) varies the threshold spring force. This changes the signal current required to
move the 4-way valve and start the change in displacement. The S10* ramp spring(s)—two used in 160 cc
and 250 cc motors and one used in 80 cc and 110 cc motors—increase the force on the 4-way valve as
the servo piston moves toward minimum displacement. This provides a motor displacement
proportional to the variable input signal current.
The control-operating threshold (the signal current or force when the motor starts to shift) is adjustable.
Adjust it using the S100 adjusting screw in the motor’s end cap.
Changing ramp spring force requires replacing the springs. There are several spring rates available.
Optional orifices may be installed at several locations to regulate shift speed. Refer to the Model Code for
your motor for details.

Adjustments
Threshold Setting
Series 51 Electrohydraulic Proportional Controls Service Manual
Checking Threshold Setting
1. Install a 50 bar [600 psi] gauge at port M3 to read minimum servo pressure.
2. Install a 50 bar [600 psi] gauge at port M4 to read maximum servo pressure.
3. Install meter to read signal current.
4. Increase the signal current to the proper setting.
The pressure at port M3 should rise to about 100 psi [6.89 bar] higher than the pressure at port M4.
This causes the servo piston to start to move toward minimum position. Signal current at this point is
the threshold setting.
On a test stand, increase signal current until the flow from the motor begins to decrease. The signal
current at this point is the threshold setting.
Adjusting Threshold Setting
1. Using a 10 mm wrench, loosen the locknut on the adjusting screw.
2. Using a 3 mm internal hex wrench turn the adjusting screw:
Clockwise (cw) to increase the setting
•
Counterclockwise (ccw) to decrease the setting.
•
3. While holding the position of the adjustment screw:
tighten the locknut
•
using a 10 mm wrench torque the locknut to 9 N•m [6.6 lbf•ft].

2. Install a 600 bar [10000 psi] gauge at port M3 to read minimum servo pressure.
3. Lock the motor shaft from moving by:
Applying the park brake, apply an extreme load, or
•
Position the machine against an immovable object, or
•
Other means to hold the machine.
•
4. Start the prime mover. Operate at medium RPM.
5. Stroke the pump very slowly to gradually increase the system pressure.

Service Manual Series 51 Electrohydraulic Proportional Controls Service Manual
Adjustments
An alternate method to slowly increase the system pressure is to use the pump’s pressure limiter (PL)
valve. Lower the PL setting below the PCOR setting. Stroke the pump to about one-fourth
displacement. Raise the PL setting slowly to increase system pressure until pressure at the M3 port
drops down. System pressure at this point is the PCOR setting. Adjust the PL back to its proper setting
after checking the PCOR setting.
6. Increase system pressure until pressure at port M3 drops down, system pressure at this point is the
PCOR setting.
Checking PCOR Setting on a Test Stand
Increase system pressure until the system flow begins to increase. System pressure at this point is the
PCOR setting.
Warning
System pressure may increase rapidly when flow increases.
Adjusting the PCOR Setting
For PCOR valves mounted on a Multiblock; use a 1-1/16 in. wrench to loosen the lock nut on the
adjusting screw. Using a large screw driver or a 13 mm wrench turn the adjusting screw clockwise to
increase pressure setting or counter clockwise to lower pressure setting. One turn of the adjusting
screw changes the setting approximately 69 bar [1000 psi].
