GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Mistakes in operation are extremely dangerous.
Read the Operation and Maintenance carefully BEFORE operating the machine.
1.Before carrying out any greasing or re-
pairs, read all the precautions given on the
decals which are fixed to the machine.
2.When carrying out any operation, always
wear safety shoes and helmet. Do not wear
loose work clothes, or clothes with buttons
missing.
•Always wear safety glasses when hitting parts with a hammer.
•Always wear safety glasses when
grinding parts with a grinder, etc.
3.If welding repairs are needed, always have
a trained, experienced welder carry out the
work. When carrying out welding work, always wear welding gloves, apron, glasses,
cap and other clothes suited for welding
work.
6.Decide a place in the repair workshop to keep
tools and removed parts. Always keep the tools
and parts in their correct places. Always keep
the work area clean and make sure that there is
no dirt or oil on the floor. Smoke only in the areas provided for smoking. Never smoke while
working.
PREP ARA TIONS FOR WORK.
7.Before adding the oil or making any repairs
park the machine on hard, level ground, and
block the wheels or tracks to prevent the machine from moving.
8.Before starting work, lower blade, ripper, bucket
or any other work equipment to the ground. If
this is not possible, insert the safety pin or use
blocks to prevent the wrok equipment from falling. In addition, be sure to lock all the control
levers and hang warning signs on them.
9.When disassembling or assembling, support
the machine with blocks, jacks or stands before
starting work.
4.When carrying out any operation with two
or more workers, always agree on the operating procedure before starting. Always
inform your fellow workers before starting
any step of the operation. Before starting
work, hang UNDER REPAIR signs on the
controls in the operator's compartment.
5.Keep all tools in good condition and learn
the correct way to use them.
10. Remove all mud and oil from the steps or other
paces used to get on and off the machine. Always use the handrails, ladders or steps when
getting on or off the machine. Never jump on or
off the machine. If it is impossible to use the
handrails, ladders or steps, use a stand to provide safe footing.

SAFETYSAFETY NOTICE
PRECAUTIONS DURING WORK
11. When removing the oil filter cap, drain plug or
hydraulic pressure measuring plugs, loosen
them slowly to prevent the oil from spurting out.
Before disconnecting or removing components
of the oil, water or air circuits, first remove the
pressure completely from the circuit.
12. The water and oil in the circuits are hot when
the engine is stopped, so be careful not to get
burned.
Wait for the oil and water to cool before carrying
out any work on the oil or water circuits.
13. Before starting work, remove the leads from the
battery . Always remove the lead from the negative (-) terminal first.
14. When raising heavy components, use a hoist or
crane.
Check that the wire rope, chains and hooks are
free from damage.
Always use lifting equipment which has ample
capacity .
Install the lifting equipment at he correct places.
Use a hoist of crane and operate slowly to prevent the component from hitting any other part.
Do not work with any part still raised by the
hoist or crane.
20. When installing high pressure hoses, make
sure that they are not twisted. Damaged tubes
are dangerous, so be extremely careful when
installing tubes for high pressure circuits. Also,
check that connecting parts are correctly installed.
21. When assembling or installing parts, always
use the specified tightening torques. When installing protective parts such as guards. or
parts which vibrate violently or rotate at high
speed, be particulary careful to check that they
are installed correctly .
22. When aligning two holes, never insert your fingers or hand. Be careful not to get your fingers
caught in a hole.
23. When messuring hydraulic pressure, check that
the messuring tool is correctly assembled for
taking any measurements.
24. Take care when removing or installing the
tracks of track-type machines. When removing
the track, the track separates suddenly, so
never let anyone stand at either end of the
track.
15. When removing covers which are under internal pressure or under pressure from a spring,
always leave two bolts in position on opposite
sides. Slowly release the pressure, then slowly
loosen the bolts to remove.
16. When removing components, be careful not to
break or damage the wiring. Damaged wiring
may cause electrical fires.
17. When removing piping, stop the fuel or oil from
spilling out. If any oil or fuel drops onto the floor,
wipe it up immediately. Fuel or oil on the floor
can cause you to slip, or can even start fires.
18. As a general rule, do not use gasoline to wash
parts. In particular, only use the minimum of
gasoline when washing electrical parts.
19. Be sure to assemble all parts again in their
original places.
Replace any damaged parts with new parts.
•When installing hoses and wires, be sure
that the will not be damaged by contact
with oter parts when the machine is being
operated.

FOREWORDHOISTING INSTRUCTIONS
HOISTING INSTRUCTIONS
HOISTING
Heavy parts (25 kg or more) must be
lifted with a hoist, etc. In the DISASSEM-BLY AND ASSEMBLY section, every
part weighing 25 kg op mroe is indicated
with the symbol
•If a part cannot be smootlhy removed from the
machine by hoisting, the following checks
should be made:
1)Check for removal of all bolts fastening the
part to the relative parts.
2)Check for existence of another part caus-
ing interference with the part to be removed.
WIRE ROPES
1)Use adequate ropes depending on the
weight of parts to be hoisted, referring to
the table below:
seporeriW
seportsiwt"S"ro"Z"dradnatS(
gnizinavlagtuohtiw

010.1
2.114.1
5.216.1
412.2
618..2
816.3
Slinging near the edge of the hook may cause the
rope to slip off the hook during hoisting, and a serious accident can result. Hooks have a maximum
strength at the middle portion.
3)Do not sling a heavy load with one rope alone,
but sling with two or more ropes symmetrically
wound onto the load.
Slinging with one rope may cause turning
of the load during hoisting, untwisting of
the rope, or slipping of the rope from its
original winding position on the load, which
can result in a dangerous accident.
4)Do not sling a heavy load with ropes forming a
wide hanging angle from the hook. When hoisting a load with two or more ropes, the force subjected to each rope will increase with the
nahging angles. The table below shows the
variation of allowable load (kg) when hoisting is
made with two ropes, each of which is allowed
to sling up to 1000 kg vertically , at various hanging angles.
When two ropes sling a load vertically, up to
2000 kg of total weight can be suspended. This
weight becomes 1000 kg when two ropes make
a 120° hanging angle. On the other hand, two
ropes are subjected to an excessive force as
large as 4000 kg if they sling a 2000 kg load at a
lifting angle of 150°.

★The allowable load value is estimated to be
one-sixth or one-seventh of the breaking
strength of the rope used.

ST ANDARD TIGHTENING TORQUES OF BOLTS AND NUTS
The following charts give the standard tightening torques of bolts and nuts. Exceptions are given in section of
In the wiring diagrams, various colors and symbols are employed to indicate the thickness of wires. This
wire code table will help you understand WIRING DIAGRAMS.
Example: 5WB indicates a cable having a nominale number 5 and white coating with black stripe.
The Conversion T able in this section is provided to enable simple conversion of figures. For details of the method
of using the Conversion Table, see the example given below.
EXAMPLE
•Method of using the Conversion Table to convert from millimeters to inches
1.Convert 55 mm to inches
(1) Locate the number 50 in the vertical column at the left side, take this as 훽, then draw a horizontal line
from 훽.
(2) Locate the number 5 in the row across the top, take this as 훾, then draw a perpendicular line down
from 훾.
(3) Take the point where the two lines cross as 훿. This pint 훿 gives the value when converting from
millimeters to inches. Therefore, 55mm = 2.165 inches.
2.Convert 550 mm into inches.
(1) The nuber 550 does not appear in the table, so divide by 10 (move the decimal point one place to the
left) to convert it to 55 mm.
(2) Carry out the same procedure as above to convert 55 mm to 2.165 inches.
(3) The original value (550 mm) was divided by 10, so multiply 2.165 inches by 10 (move the decimal point
one place to the right) to return to the orginal value. This gives 550 mm = 21.65 inches.
Fahrenheit-Centigrade Conversion; a simple way to convert a Fahrenheit temperature reading into a Centigrade
temperature reading or vice is to enter the accompanying table in the center or boldface column of figures.
These figures refer to the temperature in either Fahrenheit or Centigrade degrees.
If it desired to convert from Fahrenheit to Centigrade degrees, consider the center column as a table of Fahrenheit temperatures and read the corresponding Centigrade temperature in the column at the left.
If it is desired to convert from Centigrade to Fahrenheit degrees, consider the center column as a table of
Centigrade values, and read the corresponding Fahrenheit temperature on the right.
The clutch is a device which automatically disengages the drive between the large diplacement
(Rear) travel motor and the transmission. This occurs when the machine is accelerating and the disengagement occurs at 11 Kph. The transmission
system becomes more efficient (by reducing losses
caused by the unnecessary rotation of the rear
travel motor) providing better acceleration and enabling a maximum speed of 30 Kph.
When the machine decelerates from a high speed
the clutch will re-engage automatically at 9 Kph and
will remain engaged until the speed is increased
above 11 Kpm again.

Purpose
The undercarriages of wheeled hydraulic excavators have one of the two driven axles oscillating
mounted. This makes it possible to fully utilize the
excavator's rimpull in rough terrain - all of the
wheels being constantly in contact with the ground.
An oscillation blocking ram is fitted on each side of
the undercarriage to block the axle during digging or
lifting work.
Blocking the axle increases the excavator's stability .

Function
The oscillating axle (3) is mounted in bearing (2) in
the middle of the excavator. The two rams (1) which
are full of hydraulic oil are connected through pipelines to the oscillation lock solenoid valve (4).
When the excavator is being moved, the oscillation
lock solenoid valve should be de-energized so that
the hydraulic oil in the ram can be returned to tank
as the axle is oscillating up and down. Before commencing excavating operations, the oscillation lock
solenoid valve should be energized to pressurize
the oil in the rams. This will lock the axle in the position it is in.

Structure and function
The brake system is fully hydraulic. Oil is supplied at high pressure by a pump to a priority valve. The priority valve gives
priority to the steering circuit. When braking, oil is sent to the brake valve which provides braking pressure to two separate
braking circuits (service brakes). In the event of a failure of the power supply, the accumulators provide brake pressure to
allow the machine to be safety stopped.
A parking brake is provided which is operated by energizing a solenoid valve in the brake valve which sends pressure to the
park brake in the transmission. Park brake on solenoid off.

Structure and function
•The steering is fully hydraulic. The oil sent by
the brake/steer pump (2) mounted on the PTO
at the front of the engine (1) flows via the priority valve (3) to the steering valve (4). From here
it is passed through swivel joint (7) to steering
cylinder (5). The steering cylinder then extends
or retracts to move the tie-rod and steer the machine.
•In the event of failure of the power supply the
machine can be steered by emergency steering. The steering valve acts as a pump to send
oil to the steering cylinder.

STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
Function
•The engine rotation and torque transmitted to
the pump shaft is converted into hydraulic energy, and pressurized oil is discharged according to the load.
•It is possible to change the delivery amount by
changing the swash plate angle.
HYDRAULIC PUMP
Structure
•Cylinder block (7) is supported to shaft (1) by
spline a, and shaft (1) is supported by the front
and rear bearings.
•The tip of piston (6) is a concave ball, and shoe
(5) is caulked to it to from one unit. Piston (6)
and shoe (5) form a spherical bearing.
•Locker cam (4) has flat surface A, and shoe (5)
is always pressed against this surface while
sliding in a circular movement. Rocker cam (4)
brings high pressure oil at cylindrical surface B
with cradle (2), which is secured to the case,
and forms a static pressure bearing when it
slides.
•Piston (6) carries out relative movement in the
axial direction inside each cylinder chamber of
cylinder block (7).
•Cylinder block (7) seals the pressure oil to valve
plate (8) and carries out relative rotation. This
surface is designed so that the oil pressure balance is maintained at a suitable level. The oil
inside each cylinder chamber of cylinder block
(7) is sucked in and discharged through valve
plate (8).

Page 66
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
OPERATION
1.Operation of pump
1)Cylinder block (7) rotates together with shaft
(1), and shoe (5) slides on flat surface A. When
this happens, rocker cam (4) moves along cylindrical surface B, so angle ( between center
liner X of rocker cam (4) and the axial direction
of cylinder block (7) changes. (Angle ( is called
the swash plate angle.)
2)Center line X of rocker cam (4) maintains
swash plate angle α in relation to the axial direction of cylinder block (7), and flat surface A
moves as a cam in relation to shoe (5). In this
way, piston (6) slides on the inside of cylinder
block (7), so a difference between volume E
and F is created inside cylinder block (7). The
suction and discharge is carried out by this difference F - E.
In other words, when cylinder block (7) rotates
and the volume of chamber E becomes smaller ,
the oil is discharged during that stroke. On the
other hand, the volume of chamber F becomes
larger, so in that stroke, the oil is sucked in.
HYDRAULIC PUMP
3)If center line X of rocker cam (4) is in line with
the axial direction of cylinder block (7) (swash
plate angle = 0), the difference between volumes E and F inside cylinder block (7) becomes 0, so the pump does not carry out any
suction or discharge of oil. (In actual fact, the
swash plate angle never becomes 0.)

Page 67
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
2)Control of discharge amount
•If swash plate angle α becomes larger, the difference in volumes E and F becomes larger
and discharge volume Q increases. Swash
plate angle α is changed by servo piston (11).
•Servo piston (11) moves in a reciprocal movement () under the signal pressure of the PC
and LS valves. This straight line movement is
transmitted through rod (12) to rocker cam (4),
and rocker cam (4), which is supported by the
cylindrical surface to cradle (2), slides in a rotating movement in direction ().
•With servo piston (11), the area receiving the
pressure is different on the left and right, so
main pump discharge pressure (self pressure)
PP is always brought to the pressure chamber
on the small diameter piston side (front).
Output pressure Pen of the LS valve is brought
to the pressure chamber at the large diameter
piston end (rear). The relationship in the size of
pressure PP at the small diameter piston end
and pressure Pen at the large diameter piston
end, and the ratio between the area receiving
the pressure of the small diameter piston and
the large diameter piston controls the movement of servo piston (11).

STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
FUNCTION
1.LS VAL VE
The LS valve detects the load and controls the
discharge amount.
This valve controls main pump discharge
amount Q according to differential pressure
왕PLS (=PP-PLS) (the difference between
main pump pressure PP and control valve outlet port pressure PLS) [called the LS differential
pressure].
Main pump pressure PP, pressure PLS [called
the LS pressure] coming from the control valve
output, and pressure PSIG [called the LS selec-
tor pressure] from the LS-EPC valve enter this
valve. The relationship between discharge
amount Q and differential pressure 왕PLS, (the
difference between main pump pressure PP
and LS pressure PLS) (= PP-PLS) changes as
shown in the diagram on the right according to
LS selector current isig of the LS-EPC valve.
When isig changes between 0 and 1A, the set
pressure of the spring changes according to
this, and the switching point for the pump discharge amount changes at the rated central
value between 0.64 2.1 MPa
{6.5 21.5 kg/cm2).
2.PC VAL VE
When the pump discharge pressure PP is high,
the PC valve controls the pump so that no more
oil than the constant flow (in accordance with
the discharge pressure) flows even if the stroke
of the control valve becomes larger. In this way,
it carries out equal horsepower control so that
the horsepower absorbed by the pump does
not exceed the engine horsepower. In other
words, if the load during the operation becomes
larger and the pump discharge pressure rises, it
reduces the discharge amount from the pump;
and if the pump discharge pressure drops, it increases the discharge amount from the pump.
The relationship between the pump discharge
pressure PP and pump discharge amount Q is
shown in the diagram on the right, with the current given to the PC-EPC valve solenoid shown
as a parameter. However , in the heavy-duty operation mode, there are cases where it is given
the function of sensing the actual speed of the
engine, and if the speed drops because of an
increase in the load, it reduces the pump discharge amount to allow the speed to recover. In
other words, when the load increases and the
engine speed drops below the set value, the
command current to the PC-EPC valve solenoid from the controller increases according to
the drop in the engine speed to reduce the
pump swash plate angle.

OPERATION
HYDRAULIC PUMP
1.LS VAL VE
1)When control valve is at neutral
position
•The LS valve is a three-way selector valve.
with pressure PLS (LS pressure) from the
inlet port of the control valve brought to
spring chamber B, and main pump discharge pressure PP brought to port H of
sleeve (8).
The size of the force produced by this LS
pressure PLS + force Z of spring (4) and
the main pump pressure (self-pressure)
PP determines the position of spool (6).
However, the size of the output pressure
PSIG (the LS selection pressure) of the
EPC valve for the LS valve entering port G
also changes the position of spool (6). (The
set pressure of the spring changes.)
•Before the engine is started, servo piston
(11) is pushed to the right (large diameter
end). (See the diagram on the right.)
•When the engine is started and the control
lever is at the neutral position, LS pressure
PLS is 0 MPa {0 kg/cm
nected with the drain circuit through the
control valve spool.)

At this point, spool (6) is pushed to the left,
and port C and port D are connected.
Pump pressure PP enters the large diameter end of the piston from port K, and the
same pump pressure PP also enters port J
at the small diameter end of the piston, so
the swash plate is moved to the minimum
angle by the difference in area of piston
(11).
10-45
Page 72
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
HYDRAULIC PUMP
2)Operation in maximum direction for pump
discharge amount
•When the difference between main pump pressure PP and LS pressure PLS, in other words,
LS differential pressure 왕PLS becomes smaller (for example, when the area of opening of
the control valve becomes larger and pump
pressure PP drops), spool (6) is pushed to the
right by the combined force of LS pressure PLS
and the force of spring (4).
•When spool (6) moves, port D and port E are
joined and connected to the PC valve. When
this happens, the PC valve is connected to the
drain port, so circuit D - K becomes drain pressure PT. (The operation of the PC valve is explained later.)
10-46
•For this reason, the pressure at the large diameter end of servo piston (11) becomes drain
pressure PT, and pump pressure PP enters
port J at the small diameter end, so servo piston (11) is pushed to the right. Therefore, the
swash plate moves in the direction to make the
discharge amount larger.
•If the output pressure of the EPC valve for the
LS valve enters port G, this pressure creates a
force to move piston (7) to the left. If piston (7) is
pushed to the left, its acts to make the set pressure of spring (4) weaker, and the difference
between hydraulic pressure PLS and PP
changes when ports D and E of spool (6) are
connected.
Page 73
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
HYDRAULIC PUMP
3)Operation in minimum direction for pump
discharge amount
•The following explains the situation if servo piston (1 1) moves to the left (the discharge amount
becomes smaller). When LS differential pressure 왕PLS becomes larger (for example, when
the area of opening of the control valve becomes smaller and pump pressure PP rises),
the force produced by pump pressure PP
pushes spool (6) to the left.
•When spool (6) moves, main pump pressure
PP flows from port C to port D, and it enters the
large diameter end of the piston from port K.
•Main pump pressure PP also enters port J at
the small diameter end of the piston, but because of the difference in area between the
large diameter end and the small diameter end
of servo piston (1 1), servo piston (11) is pushed
to the left.
As a result, the swash plate moves in the direction to make angle smaller.
•If LS selection pressure PSIG enters port G, it
acts to make the set pressure of spring (4)
weaker.
10-47
Page 74
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
HYDRAULIC PUMP
4)When servo piston is balanced
•Let us take the area receiving the pressure at
the large diameter end of the piston as A1, the
area receiving the pressure at the small diameter end as A0, and the pressure flowing into
the large diameter end of the piston as Pen. If
main pump pressure PP of the LS valve and the
combined force of force Z of spring (4) and LS
pressure PLS are balanced, and the relationship is A0 x PP = A1 x Pen, servo piston (11)
will stop in that position, and the swash plate
will be kept at an intermediate position. (It will
stop at a position where the openings of the
throttle from port D to port E and from port C to
port D of spool (6) are approximately the same.)
10-48
•At this point, the relationship between the area
receiving the pressure at both ends of piston
(11) is A0 : A1 = 1 : 2, so the pressure applied to
both ends of the piston when it is balanced becomes PP : Pen = 1.75 : 1.
•The position where spool (6) is balanced and
stopped is the standard center, and the force of
spring (4) is adjusted so that it is determined
when PP-PLS = 2.1 MPa {21.5 kg/cm
ever, if PSIG (the output pressure of 0 2.9
MPa {0 30 kg/cm2} of the EPC valve of the
LS valve) is applied to port G, the balance stop
position will change in proportion to pressure
PSIG between PP-PLS = 2.1 0.64 MPa
{21.5 6.5 kg/cm2}.

1)When pump controller is normal
a.When the load on the actuator is small
and pump pressure PP is low
(1) Action of PC-EPC solenoid (1)
•The command current from the pump
controller flows to PC-EPC solenoid
(1).
This command current acts on the PCEPC valve and outputs the signal
pressure. When this signal pressure is
received. the force pushing piston (2)
is changed.
•On the opposite side to this force
pushing piston (2) is the spring set
pressures of springs (4) and (6) and
pump pressure PP pushing spool (3).
Spool (3) stops at a position where the
combined force pushing spool (3) is
balanced, and the pressure (pressure
of port C) output from the PC valve
changes according to this position.
•The size of command current X is determined by the nature of the operation (lever operation), the selection of
the working mode, and the set value
and actual value for the engine speed.
10-49
Page 76
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
HYDRAULIC PUMP
(2) Action of spring
•The spring load of springs (4) and (6) in the PC
valve is determined by the swash plate position.
•When servo piston (9) moves, piston (7), which
is connected to slider (8), also moves to the
right or left.
•If piston (7) moves to the left, spring (6) is compressed, and if it moves further to the left,
spring (6) contacts seat (5) and is fixed in position. From this point, only spring (4) is actuated.
In other words, the spring load is changed by
piston (7) extending or compressing springs (4)
and (6).
10-50
•If the command current input to PC-EPC valve
solenoid (1) changes further, the force pushing
piston (2) changes. The spring load of springs
(4) and (6) also changes according to the value
of the PC-EPC valve solenoid command current.
•Port C of the PC valve is connected to port E of
the LS valve (see (1) LS valve).
Self-pressure PP enters port B, the small diameter end of servo piston (9) and port A.
Page 77
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
•When pump pressure PP is small, spool (3) is
on the left. At this point, port C and port D are
connected, and the pressure entering the LS
valve becomes drain pressure PT. If port E and
port G of the LS valve are connected (see (1)
LS valve), the pressure entering the large diameter end of the piston from port J becomes
drain pressure PT, and servo piston (9) moves
to the right. In this way, the pump discharge
amount moves in the direction of increase.
•As servo piston (9) moves further, piston (7) is
moved to the right by slider (8). Springs (4) and
(6) expand and the spring force becomes
weaker. When spring force becomes weaker,
spool (3) moves to the right, so the connection
between port C and port D is cut, and the pump
discharge pressure ports B and C are connected. As a result, the pressure at port C rises,
and the pressure at the large diameter end of
the piston also rises, so the movement of piston
(9) to the right is stopped.
In other words, the stop position for piston (9) (=
pump discharge amount) is decided at the point
where the force of springs (4) and (6) and the pushing force from the PC-EPC valve solenoid and the
pushing force created by pressure PP acting on
spool (3) are in balance.

b.When load on actuator is large and pump
discharge pressure is high
•When the load is large and pump discharge
pressure PP is high, the force pushing spool (3)
to the left becomes larger and spool (3) moves
to the position shown in the diagram above.
When this happens, as shown in the diagram
above, part of the pressurized oil from port A
passes through the LS valve, flows out from
port C to port D, and the pressurized oil flowing
from port C to the LS valve becomes approximately 3/5 of main pump pressure PP.
•When port E and port G of the LS valve are
connected (see (1) LS valve), the pressure
from port J enters the large diameter end of
servo piston (9), and servo piston (9) stops.
10-52
•If main pump pressure PP increases further
and spool (3) moves further to the left, main
pump pressure PP flows to port C and acts to
make the discharge amount the minimum.
When piston (9) moves to the left, piston (7) is
moved to the left. For this reason, springs (4)
and (6) are compressed and push back spool
(3).
When spool (3) moves to the left, the opening of
port C and port D becomes larger. As a result,
the pressure at port C (= J) drops, and piston
(9) stops moving to the left. The position in
which piston (9) stops when this happens is further to the left than the position when pump
pressure PP is low.
Page 79
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONHYDRAULIC PUMP
•The relation of pump pressure PP and the position of servo piston (9) forms a bent line because of the double-spring effect of springs (6)
and (4). The relationship between pump pressure PP and pump discharge amount Q is
shown in the figure on the right.
•If command current X sent to solenoid (1) increases further, the relationship between pump
pressure PP and pump discharge amount Q is
proportional to the pushing force of the PCEPC valve of output pressure. In other words, if
the pushing force of output pressure is added to
the force pushing to the left because of the
pump pressure applied to the piston (2), the relationship between PP and Q moves from to
in accordance with the increase.

2)When pump controller is abnormal and PC
prolix switch in ON
a.When load on main pump is light
•If there is a failure in the pump controller, turn
PC prolix switch ON to switch to the resistor
side. In this case, the power source is taken directly from the battery . But if the current is used
as it is, it is too large, so the resistor is used to
control the current flowing to PC-EPC valve solenoid (1).
•When this is done, the current becomes constant, so the force pushing piston (2) is also
constant.
10-54
•If main pump pressure PP is low , the combined
force of the pump pressure and the force of PCEPC valve solenoid (1) is weaker than the
spring set force, so spool (3) is balanced at a
position to the left.
•At this point, port C is connected to the drain
pressure of port D, and the large diameter end
of the piston of servo piston (9) also becomes
the drain pressure PT through the LS valve.
When this happens, the pressure at the small
diameter end of the piston is large, so servo piston (9) moves in the direction to make the discharge amount larger.
Page 81
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONHYDRAULIC PUMP
b.When main pump load is heavy
•In the same way as in the previous item, when
the PC prolix switch is ON, the command current sent to PC-EPC valve solenoid (1) becomes constant. For this reason, the force of
piston (2) pushing spool (3) is constant.
•If main pump pressure PP increases, spool (3)
moves further to the left than when the main
pump load is light, and is balanced at the position in the diagram above.
•In this case, the pressure from port A flows to
port C, so servo piston (9) moves to the left (to
make the discharge amount smaller), by the
same mechanism as explained in Item , and
stops at a position to the left of the position
when the load on the pump is light. In other
words, even when the PC prolix switch is ON,
the curve for the pump pressure PP and discharge amount Q is determined as shown in the
diagram for the value of the current sent to the
PC-EPC valve solenoid through the resistor.
The curve when the PC prolix switch is ON is
curve , which is to the left of curve for when
the pump controller is normal.

OUTLINE
Features
CLSS stands for Closed center Loads Sensing System, and has the following features.
1)Fine control not influenced by load
2)Control enabling digging even with fine control
3)Ease of compound operation ensured by flow divider function using area of opening of spool during compound operations
4)Energy saving using variable pump control
Structure
•The CLSS consists of a variable displacement single piston pump, control valve, and actuators.
•The pump body consists of the main pump, PC valve and LS valve.
10-68
Page 95
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
BASIC PRINCIPLE
1.Control of pump swash plate angle
•The pump swash plate angle (pump discharge
amount) is controlled so that LS differential
pressure 왕PLS (the difference between pump
pressure PP and control valve outlet port LS
pressure PLS) (load pressure of actuator) is
constant.
(LS pressure 왕PLS = Pump discharge pressure PP - LS pressure PLS)
CLLS
•If LS differential pressure 왕PLS becomes
lower than the set pressure of the LS valve
(when the actuator load pressure is high), the
pump swash plate moves towards the maximum position; if it becomes higher than the set
pressure of the LS valve (when the actuator
load pressure is low), the pump swash plate
moves towards the minimum position.
10-69
Page 96
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
2)Pressure compensation control
•A valve (pressure compensation valve) is installed to the outlet port side of the control valve to balance the
load.
When there is compound operation of the actuators, this valve acts to make pressure difference 왕P constant for the upstream flow (inlet port) and downstream (outlet port) of the spool of each valve. In this way,
the flow of oil from the pump is divided in proportion to area of opening S1 and S2 of each valve.

STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
1)Unload valve
Function
1.When the control valve is at neutral, pump discharge amount Q discharged by the minimum swash plate
angle is released to the tank circuit.
When this happens, pump discharge pressure PP is set at 2.45 MPa (25 kg/cm
valve. (LS pressure PLS: 0 MPa (0 kg/cm2))
2
) by spring (3) inside the
CLSS
Operation
When control valve is at neutral
•Pump discharge pressure Pp is acting on the
left end of spool (4), and LS pressure PLSis acting on the right end.
•When the control valve is at neutral, LS pressure PLSis 0, so only pump discharge pressure
PP has any effect, and Pp is set only by the load
of spring (3).
•As pump discharge pressure Pp rises and
reaches the load of spring (3) (2.45 MPa 25 kg/
cm2)), spool (4) is moved to the right in the direction of the arrow. Pump discharge pressure
Pp then passes through the drill hole in sleeve
(2) and is connected to tank circuit T.
•In this way, pump discharge pressure Pp is set
to 2.45 MPa (25 kg/cm2)
2.During fine control of the control valve, when the demand flow for the actuator is within the amount discharged by the minimum swash plate angle of the pump, pump discharge pressure Pp is set to LS pressure
P
LS + 2.45 MPa (25 kg/cm
2
).
When the differential pressure between pump discharge pressure Pp and LS pressure PLS reaches the
load of spring (3) (2.45 MPa (25 kg/cm2)), the unload valve opens, so LS differential pressure 왕PLS becomes 2.45 MPa (25 kg/cm2).
Operation
Fine control of control valve
•When fine control is carried out on the control
valve, LS pressure PLSis generated and acts
on the right end of spool (4).
When this happens, the area of the opening of
the control valve spool is small, so there is a big
difference between LS pressure PLSand pump
discharge pressure Pp.
•When the differential pressure between pump
discharge pressure Pp and LS pressure PLS
reaches the load of spring (3) (2.45 MPa (25 kg/
cm2)), spool (4) moves to the right in the direction of the arrow, and pump circuit Pp and tank
circuit T are connected.
•In other words, pump discharge pressure Pp is
set to a pressure equal to the spring force (2.45
MPa (25 kg/cm2)) + LS pressure PLS, and LS
differential pressure 왕PLS becomes 2.45 MPa
(25 kg/cm2).
3.When the control valve is being operated and the demand flow for the actuator becomes greater than the
pump discharge from the minimum swash plate angle, the flow of the oil out to tank circuit T is cut off, and all
of pump discharge amount Q flows to the actuator circuit.

Operation
Control valve operated
•When the control valve is operated to a bigger
stroke, LS pressure P
on the right end of spool (4). When this happens, the area of the opening of the control
valve spool is large, so the difference between
LS pressure PLSand pump discharge pressure
Pp is small.
•For this reason, the differential pressure between pump discharge pressure Pp and LS
pressure PLSdoes not reach the load of spring
(3) (2.45 MPa (25 kg/cm2)), so spool (4) is
pushed to the left by spring (3).
•As a result, pump circuit Pp and tank circuit T
are shut off, and all the pump discharge amount
