NOTE: This manual is divided into the following two main sections:
1. Checking Procedures
2. Testing And Adjusting
NOTE: As a general rule, if there is doubt as to the cause of a problem, the electronic system should be
checked first.
Reference: For information on Systems Operation of the above, make reference to: Engine And Pump
Electronic Control System, Systems Operation, Testing And Adjusting, SENR6155 and/or Systems
Operation, Hydraulic System, SENR6166 or SENR6294.
NOTE: The material in this module is intended to be used with the separate modules, "Electrical
Schematic", Form No. SENR6128, SENR8939 or SENR6144. "Starting And Charging System, System
Operation", and "Engine And Pump Electronic Control System, Systems Operation, Testing And
Adjusting", Form No. SENR6155.
This manual contains information on the troubleshooting procedures of the hydraulic system in the 5080
Front Shovel. For troubleshooting the engine components, refer to the module Systems Operation, Testing
And Adjusting for CAT 3406 ATAAC Diesel Engine, Form No. REGO1438.

In each checking procedure, it is assumed that the engine operation is normal unless otherwise specified.

The monitor and electronic controller are the main components of the electronic control system. The
monitor and electronic controller have a self diagnostic function. Self diagnostic checks of the monitor,
electronic controller, and the communication line between them are the first steps when troubleshooting
the problem(s) in the electronic system. For troubleshooting the electronic control systems, refer to the
module Engine And Pump Electronic Control System, Systems Operation, Testing And Adjusting, Form
No. SENR6155.
Action alarm indicators on the monitor panel, alert an operator to a problem in the electronic system. The
controller service program "Data Mode" can also be used to identify the problems. If the service program
is activated during machine operation, problem(s) that are monitored by the monitoring system are

indicated on the character display. If the service program is activated when the machine operation is
stopped, all existing problems and past problems (problems that have not been corrected) are indicated on
the character display. To activate the controller service program "Data Mode", refer to the module Engine
And Pump Electronic Control System, Systems Operation, Testing And Adjusting, Form No. SENR6155,
"Data Mode" section.

If the electronic power unit control system display indicates it is operating correctly, then do operational
tests. Operate the machine, following the procedures described in the section "Testing And Adjusting".
Compare the results of the operational tests with specifications to determine the extent of the trouble. In
operational tests, it is important to determine whether or not enough hydraulic force or implement speed is
a problem that extends over the entire machine or with only a specific operation.
If there are any faults in the circuits between the main or pilot pumps and the control valves, the overall
performance of the machine will decrease. This type of problem in the hydraulic system is not detected by
the self diagnostic functions of the electronic control system described above (no action alarm indication
on character display.). To detect such a problem, it is necessary to check the flow characteristics of the
pumps, the main relief pressure, pilot pressure, etc.

Hydraulic oil pressure can remain in the hydraulic systems on this


machine after the engine and pump have been stopped. Serious injury
can be caused if this pressure is not released before any service is done
on the hydraulic systems. To prevent possible injury, refer to section,
Release Of Pressure In The Hydraulic System, before any fitting, hose
or component is loosened, tightened, removed or adjusted.
When possible, the bucket must always be lowered to the ground before
service is started. When it is necessary for the boom to be in the raised
position while tests or adjustments are done, be sure that boom, stick
and bucket have correct support.
Swing lock must be engaged before service is started.
Always move the machine to a location away from the travel of other
machines. Be sure that other personnel are not near the machine when
the engine is running and tests or adjustments are being made.
During diagnosis of the hydraulic system, remember that correct oil temperature, flow, and pressure are
necessary for correct operation. Pump output (oil flow) is a function of engine speed (rpm). Oil pressure is
caused by resistance to the flow of oil.
Each of the implement circuits has a load check valve to prevent cylinder drift during spool movement.
Each circuit also has makeup valves for flow of oil to both ends of the cylinders and motors and there is a
line relief valve for each of the cylinder and swing motor circuits.
Visual checks and measurements are the first steps when troubleshooting a possible problem. Next, do the
Checks During Operation, and last, do the required checks and adjustments on the machine.
Use a stopwatch, a magnet and a mm (inch) ruler for the following basic checks.

A visual inspection of the system is the first step when troubleshooting a problem. Make the inspection
with the engine off and the implements lowered to the ground.
1. Check the oil level in the hydraulic tank. Slowly loosen the hydraulic tank air vent plug and release the
pressure before the filler cap is removed.
2. Remove the filter element and check it for material that would give an indication of damage to a
component.
3. Inspect all lines and connections for damage or leaks.
4. Inspect control linkage for bent, broken, or damaged components.

The checks during operation can be used to find leakage in the system. They can also be used to find a

valve, pump, motor, or cylinder that is not working correctly. The speed of rod movement or the torque on
a motor can be used to check the condition of the cylinders, motors, and the pumps.

NOTE: For specifications given in Operational Tests, a NEW specification is the performance that can be
expected of a new machine. A REBUILD specification is the performance target to use after rebuilding
the components of a system. A machine that performs beyond SERVICE LIMIT specifications should be
checked for improper maintenance or adjustment, component wear, or failure.
Specifications given in charts are for a machine equipped with 4600 mm (15 ft) boom, 3500 mm (11 ft 5
in) stick and SAE 5.2 m3 (6-3/4 yd3) bucket.
NOTE: The power mode selector switch must be placed at Mode III position, unless otherwise specified,
during tests.

Flow Test
NOTE: Perform front and rear pump flow test one at time.

To prevent personal injury and/or equipment damage from failed lines


or components while the flow meter is returned to the open flow position
after a flow test, slowly open the flow meter valve and monitor pump
flow at the same time to make sure flow increases. If pump flow does not
increase as the flow meter is opened, shut the engine off and determine
what is causing the pump not to upstroke.
1. With the engine running, start the service program "Calibration Mode" and maintain the power shift
pressure at a constant pressure of 1500 50 kPa (220 7 psi). The power shift pressure is read at tap (45)
using pressure gauge (46).
70

5080 FRONT SHOVEL HYDRAULIC SYSTEM


SENR6167-01
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NOTE: During the test, never try to turn the starter switch OFF to prevent any change in power shift
pressure.
2. Slowly turn valve (48) of portable hydraulic tester (22) clockwise and record pump flow at each of
following pressure points. Use pressure gauge (32) for this pressure reading.

P-Q Characteristic Curve [At 1500 kPa (220 psi) Power Shift Pressure]

NOTE: Flow specifications given above are based on an engine speed of 1800 rpm. To get more accurate
test results, each of measurements should be corrected by calculating as follows.
Flow corrected = (Flow measured x 1800) RPM measured
3. Any flow readings must be done only in upstroke.
4. The pump flow changes approximately 30 liter/min. (7.9 U.S. gpm) for each 100 kPa (14 psi) of power
shift pressure.

To prevent damages to the main pump and associated circuit


components because of too high pump delivery pressure, make sure to
reconnect each of load signal hoses (39) and (40) to its original pump

5. Install 4900 kPa (700 psi) pressure gauge (43) to tap (51) of pilot oil manifold (45).
6. Install multitach (29) on the engine. This is to read engine speed rpm.
7. Start the engine and place the power mode selector switch in Mode III position.
8. Place the engine speed dial at position "10" and run the engine at no load speed of 1860 50 rpm with
AEC switch OFF. (Read rpm after a elapse of 3 seconds after the speed dial has been placed in position
"10".)
9. Place the swing lock pin in the LOCKED position.
10. Increase the hydraulic oil temperature to 55 5C (131 9F). To do this, move the stick IN and OUT
its full travel several times.
11. Pressure gauge (43) at tap (51) should read 3450 + 100 -0 kPa (500 + 14 -0 psi).

Flow Test

To prevent personal injury and/or equipment damage from failed lines


or components while the flow meter is returned to the open flow position
after a flow test, slowly open the flow meter valve and monitor pump
flow at the same time to make sure flow increases. If pump flow does not
increase as the flow meter is opened, shut the engine off and determine
what is causing the pump not to upstroke.
1. Slowly turn valve (52) of portable hydraulic tester (flow meter) (22) clockwise and record pump flow at
each of the following pressure points. Use pressure gauge (42) for this pressure reading.

P-Q Characteristic Curve

NOTE: Flow specifications given above are based on an engine speed of 1800 rpm. To get more accurate
test results, each of measurements should be corrected by calculating as follows.
Flow corrected = (Flow measured 1800) rpm measured
2. Any flow readings must be done only in upstroke.
3. During this test, check to be sure that the high pressure cut characteristic correctly functions. This can
be done by identifying a sudden flow decrease when the delivery pressure reaches close to 27 500 kPa
(4000 psi).
4. Under the above test condition, the swing pump runs at a speed of 1913 rpm.
