Purge Procedure For Two-Wheel Steer

Personal injury or death can result if two persons

General Information

Refer to the following warnings for all inspections and tests of the axles, differential, and brakes. If the source of the problem is not determined,
perform the inspections and tests. Perform the inspections and tests in sequential order.
When you are analyzing a hydraulic system for poor performance, remember that correct oil flow and correct oil pressure are necessary for
correct operation.

Sudden movement of the machine or release of oil

under pressure can cause injury to persons on or
near the machine.To prevent possible injury,

perform the procedure that follows before testing

and adjusting the power train.

Sudden movement of the machine or release of oil

under pressure can cause injury to persons on or
near the machine.To prevent possible injury,
perform the procedure that follows before testing
and adjusting the brake system.

Personal injury can result from hydraulic oil

pressure and hot oil.
Hydraulic oil pressure can remain in the hydraulic
system after the engine has been stopped. Serious
injury can be caused if this pressure is not released
before any service is done on the hydraulic
system.Make sure all of the attachments have been
lowered, oil is cool before removing any
components or lines. Remove the oil filler cap only
when the engine is stopped, and the filler cap is
cool enough to touch with your bare hand.

NOTICE
Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are
contained during performance of inspection,
maintenance, testing, adjusting and repair of the
machine. Be prepared to collect the fluid with
suitable containers before opening any
compartment or disassembling any component
containing fluids.
Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500,
"Caterpillar Tools and Shop Products Guide", for
tools and supplies suitable to collect and contain
fluids in Caterpillar machines.Dispose of all fluids
according to local regulations and mandates.
1.

Move the machine to a smooth, horizontal location that is away from operating machines and away from personnel.
Note: Permit only one operator on the machine. Keep all other personnel away from the machine or in the operator's sight.

2.

Place the transmission control lever to the NEUTRAL position.

3.

Engage the parking brake.

4.

Lower the bucket or the attachments to the ground.

5.

Stop the engine.

6.
Move the control levers through the full range of travel. This will relieve any pressure that may be present in the implement
hydraulic system.
7.

Depress the brake pedal repeatedly. This will relieve any pressure that may be present in the brake hydraulic system.

8.

Place wheel blocks in front of the wheels and behind the wheels.

9.

Slowly loosen the hydraulic tank filler cap in order to release the pressure.

10.

Tighten the hydraulic tank filler cap.

Troubleshooting can be complex. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Axle Troubleshooting", Testing and Adjusting, "Differential Troubleshooting"
and Testing and Adjusting, "Braking SystemTroubleshooting" for a list of possible problems and corrections.
This list of possible problems and possible corrections will only provide an indication of the location of a problem and the repairs that are
required. Remember that a problem is not necessarily caused by one part, but by the relation of one part with other parts. This list can not
provide all possible problems and corrections. Service personnel must find the problem and the source of the problem. Then, complete the
necessary repairs.

The backhoe valve group consists of either six, seven, or eight control valves. All
the valves except the stabilizer valves are Proportional Priority Pressure
Compensation (PPPC). The machines can be configured with a seventh valve for
the E-stick and an eighth valve for the auxiliary function.
The pressure compensator in each control circuit creates a load sense (LS) signal
pressure. Supply oil in the individual control valve is diverted into a signal line
within the control valve. The highest LS signal is sensed at all of the pressure
compensators in the backhoe group. This LS pressure is also sensed at the pump
control valve.
Note: The stabilizer control valves are typically operated independently of all
other control circuits. For this reason, there is no need for the stabilizer control
valves to be PPPC. The pump control valve will provide pressure compensation
for the stabilizer control valves when operating the stabilizers.
The ports for the valves face the rear of the machine.
The bank valves (backhoe control) are located below the floorplate at the rear of
the operator station. The valves are mounted on the rear frame.
All the control valves except the e-stick and auxiliary valves are connected to the
joysticks with pilot lines. The e-stick and auxiliary are electro-hydraulic
controlled. All sections of the control valve are the type that has a closed centered
position.
