Filtration Ratings

Filter Facts

Nominal Rating An arbitrary micrometer value indicated by the filter manufacturer. Due to lack of reproducibility, this rating is deprecated.

Absolute Rating The diameter of the largest hard spherical particle that will pass through a filter under specified test conditions. This is an indication of the largest opening in the filter element.

• • • • • • •

Fine Filters have ∆P Fine filters have long life Harmful particles cannot be seen 1 micron nominal filters pass 10 micron particles Fine filters remove silt, not additives Metal mesh breathers allow airborne ingression New oil can be very dirty

BETA RATINGS Particles in this range (and smaller) should pass through the filter.

Filtration Ratio(βn) The ratio of the number of particles greater than a given size (n) in the influent fluid to the number of particles greater than the same size (n) in the effluent fluid.

Particles in this range (and larger) should be removed by the filter.

Fluid Contamination and Control

SERVICE TRAINING

Control Methods •

The sources of contamination in hydraulic and lubricating systems are divided into three general categories. The degree of importance of each source depends on: system design, operating environment, and maintenance practices

•

Primary sources of contamination •

Bulit-In Contamination (dirt, shavings, slag, and etc. that may be present during assembly).

•

Ingressed Contamination (is an environmental type which happens during routine servicing or from lack of maintenance).

•

Internally Generated Contamination (occurs from the rubbing and grinding of all moving parts inside each and every component of the system).

•

Built in a. Clean all components before installation b. Use only straight thread fittings or flange fittings c. Flush new systems with high efficiency filters Ingressed a. Use reservoir breather filters that are as fine as the system filters b. Use high quality seals in all system components c. Always keep maintenance environment clean d. Pre-filter the new oil prior to dispensing to tank Internally Generated a. Always use fine "silt control" filters b. Use specified lubricants for components c. Eliminate water from the system to reduce rust d.

Handling, Storing & Dispensing Lubricating fluids To obtain optimum performance from oil, proper handling, storing and dispensing is required. These steps are necessary to preserve the integrity of the product. It is uneconomic to buy a high quality lubricant and then permit degradation through contamination. Unless simple precautions are observed, contamination of lubricants can occur during storage; or during transfer of oil from the original container to the dispensing equipment; or during dispensing of oils to the equipment to be lubricated. Pumps, oil cans, measures, funnels and other dispensing equipment must be kept clean at all times and covered when not in use. Storing oil drums, fill carts, or other containers outside of climate controlled areas is a poor practice. Water and moisture may get into the drum around the bungs and contaminate or destroy the drum’s contents. A drum standing on end with the bungs facing up can collect rain water or condensation inside the chime. This water can gradually be drawn in around the bungs by the breathing of the drum as the ambient temperature rises and falls. This can occur even with bungs drawn tight and the tamper-proof seals in place. In addition, the dirt and rust that can accumulate inside the chime and around the bungs may contaminate the drum’s contents when the drum is opened for use. As a general rule, lubricants in drums smaller than 16 gallon capacity should never be stored outside. However if drums must be stored outside, a temporary shelter or lean-to, and/or a waterproof tarpaulin is highly recommended for protecting the drum from rain

RAIN

and snow. The proper storing position of an oil drum is: drum should be laid on it’s side with the bungs approximately horizontal and at the lowest point. In this position, water and moisture cannot collect in the chime and because the bungs are below the level of the drum’s contents, the incidence of water being drawn into the drum from normal breathing is greatly reduced. For maximum protection, drums should be stood on end with bungs down on a well-drained surface. In circumstances when all the aforementioned storing methods are impractical, drum covers should be used. Covers are available in both metal and plastic. Drums with a bung on the side should be stored either on their end, or on their side with the bung facing down. Regardless of the position, drums should always be placed on blocks or racks several inches from the ground to avoid contact with moisture or standing water. When drums must be stored outside with the bung end upward, they should be blocked up in a manner that will keep the drum teetered to provide sufficient draining of water. The drum should be rotated on the blocks so that any water collecting on the top of the drum surface does not come in contact with or submerge the bung openings. Before opening a drum that has been stored outside, the bung and chime areas should be cleaned thoroughly to eliminate the hazard of collected rust, scale and dirt from falling into the drum. Always use the oldest oil first. The probability of oxidation, contamination and attack by heat and cold, increase with age. If the oil quality is suspect due to long periods of storage, have the oil analyzed before using it.

Hydraulic Oils General information relates to all hydraulic oils. Specific information contains hydraulic oil recommendations for Schwing concrete pumps.

General information Hydraulic oils are rated for viscosity, heat dissipation, foaming characteristics, pour point, antiwear additives, anticorrosive additives, lubricating qualities, compressibility, temperature range, temperature stability, and other functions. Although many different brands of oil meet these specifications, they may use different chemical additive packages to achieve the end result. For this reason, you should not mix two different brands of oil. The additive package from one brand may be incompatible with the additive package from the other, rendering both packages useless. Recently a few manufacturers have introduced biodegradable hydraulic oils onto the market. These oils are based on vegetable extracts instead of mineral extracts. They are considered safer for the environment in the event of a spill, although the additive packages are not inert. One brand, Mobil EAL 224-H, has been accepted for use in Schwing pumps, and other brands are under consideration and testing. These oils must not be mixed with mineral-based hydraulic oils, even in very small amounts. If you will be pumping a job in an environmentally sensitive location and want to use this type of hydraulic oil, please contact the Schwing Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for instructions on making the change from mineral oil. Viscosity of hydraulic oil is similar in concept to the different weights of motor oil. For example, in the winter you may run 5W-30 in your car, while in the summer you run 10W-40. The same is true for hydraulic systems. If you live in a climate where the weather is changing from extremely hot conditions to extremely cold conditions, you should consider changing the weight of the hydraulic oil that you use by the season. The International Standards Organization (ISO) has developed a method of grading hydraulic oils for viscosity. For summer in northern North America, we recommend ISO VG 46 weight oil, while in the winter we recommend ISO VG 32 or even VG 22, depending on how cold it gets in your area. For southern North America and Central America, we recommend ISO VG 46 for the winter and ISO VG 68 or VG 100 for the summer, depending on how hot it

gets. The lower the ISO VG number the thinner the oil and the lower the pour point of the oil. On the other hand, the thinner the oil, the lower the temperature will have to be before it breaks down the lubricating film that protects your components. See the hydraulic oil chart on page 9 of this manual for help in selecting the proper oil for your requirements. The quality of the oil needed for use in a Schwing concrete pump is rated in the DIN system. The ratings have to do with the chemical additive package that is introduced into the oil. Both the DIN rating HLP and HV qualities are approved for use in our concrete pumps.

Specific information All concrete pumps leave the Schwing factory filled with Texaco Rando HD 46 hydraulic oil, which has an ISO viscosity rating of VG 46. Rando HDZ 46, an extended-viscosity oil designed for use under severe conditions, is available on request. If you want your new concrete pump filled with a different brand or different viscosity oil, you should specify it when ordering. Many other brands of oil have been approved for use in Schwing concrete pumps, including: •

Mobil DTE

•

Shell Tellus oil

•

BP Energol

•

Aral Vitam

•

Esso Nuto

•

Esso Univis

•

Total Azolla

•

Wintershall Wiolan

The order of the brands listed is not significant. Any oil that meets the quality and viscosity standards described above can be used.

When to change your hydraulic oil

VG 32 = Winter application conditions in Central Europe.

Change your hydraulic oil at least once a year. If you use good filters, and change them when they are dirty, the oil will be clean even after a year. The chemical additive packages that give the oil its properties will break down with time, however and no amount of filtration will bring them back.

VG 46 = Summer application conditions in Central Europe. VG 68 = Excessive heat indoors application or in the Tropics.

Hydraulic Oil Viscosity Chart The illustration below shows the relationship between the oil temperature and its viscosity. As you can see, the oil gets thicker when the temperature is low and thinner as the temperature rises. • The cold start limit represents the coldest temperature at which the oil is thin enough to flow into the hydraulic pumps. Anything colder, and the pumps would not be able to suck in the oil (cavitation).

SERVICE TRAINING

•

•

The minimum permissible viscosity represents the warmest temperature at which the oil will still be thick enough to provide lubrication and sealing. Anything warmer, and the components will have metal-to-metal contact (thermal breakdown). The optimum operating viscosity is the range of oil thickness at which the oil works best (thin enough to flow easily yet thick enough to protect the system components).

An example of how to read a chart for VG-46 oil is given in the chart below. The chart shows the cold start limit as –8°C (18°F) and the minimum permissible viscosity as 90°C (194°F). The optimum range is 50°– 76°C.

Spicer Transmisions Lubrication Specs To ensure proper lubrication and operating temperatures in these units, it is important that the proper lubricants be used and that correct oil levels be maintained.

Recommended Lubricants The following lubricants are recommended for use in all SPICER Unit Power Transmissions, Auxiliary Transmissions, and Transfer Cases. 1. Above 0° F, use SAE 50, 40, or 30 heavy duty engine oil, API service classification MS, DG, DM, or DS. 2. Below 0° F, use SAE 30 heavy duty engine oil, API service classification MS, DG, DM, or DS. DO NOT USE EXTREME PRESSURE ADDITIVES - such as found in multi-purpose or rear axle type lubricants. These additives are not required in SPICER transmissions, and may in some cases create transmission problems. Multi-purpose oils as a group have; relatively poor oxidation stability, a high rate of sludge formation, and a greater tendency to react on or corrode the steel or bronze parts within the unit.

Oil Changes SPICER recommends an initial oil change and flush after the transmission is placed in actual service. This oil change can be made any time following 1000 miles

of over-the-road service, but not exceeding 4000 miles. In off-highway use, the oil change should be made after 24 elapsed hours, but not exceeding 100 elapsed hours of service. There are many factors that influence the following oil change periods and we have not specified a definite mileage interval. In general, it is suggested that a drain and flush period be scheduled every 20,000 miles for normal over-theroad service. Off-highway service usually requires an oil change every 30 days. The oil level in the transmission should be checked every 2000 miles (onhighway), or every 24 hours (off-highway). The correct oil level in all SPICER transmissions is established by the filler plug opening. TO REFILL: Remove all dirt around the filler plug before unscrewing plug; then refill with new oil of a grade recommended for the present season and prevailing service. Fill to the bottom of the leveltesting plug positioned on the side of the transmission.

Over-Filling Do not over-fill the transmission. Over-filling usually results in oil breakdown due to excessive heat and aeration from the churning action of the gears. Breakdown of the oil will result in heavy varnish and sludge deposits that plug up oil ports and build up on splines and bearings. Also, overflow from overfilling of oil usually escapes onto clutch or parking brake area, causing additional trouble.

Steyr Gear Boxes Lubrication Specs 1. Steyr specifies 85-140 weight gear oil and strongly advises a change of gear oil on all their transfer cases every 3300 hours or once per year. 2. Whenever leakage of gear oil is discovered, preventative measures must be taken. 3. Operating the transfer case with too low an oil level WILL result in severe damage to the unit. 4. IMPORTANT! A proper oil level check can only be done by dispensing new oil into the filling port at position #1 of figure 5; be sure that vehicle is on level surface before removing any port plugs.

Remove the proper level checking plug (either #3 or #5), if no oil comes from the port, start to dispense new oil into the filling port until oil starts to over-flow out the checking port, then replace all plugs and tighten. 5. With this method, proper oil filling is achieved without over-filling.

LUBRICATION

The transfer case lubricant should be changed on all new transfer cases after the first 3,000 to 5,000 miles (on-highway), or the first 40 hours (off-highway): thereafter, oil changes should be done at the following intervals:

RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS On Highway Vehicles 1. Heavy-Duty Engine Oil: Temperature

Grade

Above + 10 F Below + 10 F

SAE 50 SAE 30

On Highway Service...........10,000-15,000 miles Off-Highway Service (Logging, dirt moving, mining, and associated operations)..500-750 hr.

Be sure to specify heavy-duty type MIL-L-2104B specifications. 2. Mineral Gear Oil: Temperature

Grade

Above + 10 F Below + 10 F

SAE 90 SAE 80

Must be inhibited against corrosion, oxidation, and foam. 3. MIL-L-2105B E.P. Oil, except sulfer-chlorine-lead type: Temperature

Grade

Above + 10 F Below + 10 F

SAE 90 SAE 80

Extreme pressure oils under some conditions might form carbon deposits on gears, shafts, and bearings, which will result in transfer case malfunctions and premature failure. It is suggested that if these conditions exsist, and E.P. oil is being used, a change should be made to mineral gear oil or heavy-duty engine oil as recommended. Off Highway & Mining Equipment

The recommended oil change and inspection periods are based on the average use and operating conditions that the unit may encounter. It is suggested that the individual owner make a periodic lab analysis of the lubricant to determine contamination based on the unit’s specific operating conditions. With this data, the oil change and inspection periods can be better determined.

DRAINING THE OIL Draining is best accomplished after the vehicle has been operated briefly, allowing the oil to become warm and flow more freely. Remove both drain and fill plugs. Allow the housing to empty completely. Before the unit is refilled, it should be thoroughly flushed with clean flushing oil or kerosene. If the unit is equipped with an oil pump, the lube oil filter should be replaced whenever the oil is changed. The element is of the spin-on type. A film of clean oil should be applied to the rubber gasket of the new element before installing. Do not overtighten.

REFILLING THE OIL

1. Heavy-Duty Engine Oil: Temperature

Grade

Above + 10 F SAE 50 Below + 10 F SAE 30 Be sure to specify heavy-duty type MIL-L-2104B specifications. 2. Special Recommendation: For extreme cold weather where temperature is consistently below 0ßF, use SAE 20W heavy-duty engine oil meeting MIL-L2104B specifications

If the transfer case has been removed from the vehicle for service, it is best to refill the oil after the unit has been reinstalled into the vehicle. Clean and replace the drain plug and fill the transfer case with the appropriate oil with the vehicle on level ground. Fill the transfer case to the level of the fill plug. On transfer cases equipped with a proprtional differential, it may take some time for the oil to flow into the main housing; therefore, it is necessary to fill the unit to the level of the fill plug, wait a few minutes, and top off the oil level. It may be necessary to do this several times. The plug should be installed only after the oil level has stabilized.

then piston sealing and/or holding valve on the piston side have internal leakage. 1. Remove the hose connections at the holding valve on the piston side. 2. If no oil runs out of the hose connections at the holding valve, then that means the piston seal is leaking, allowing oil to by-pass from the piston side of the cylinder to the rod side of the cylinder. 3. If oil runs out of the hose connected to the holding valve, then the holding valve on the piston side is defective.

WARNING

READ FIRST!

S0101.ai

Warning! Danger of crushing! Before removing any holding valve, the boom MUST be completely supported so that removal of the valve will not cause the boom to fall. If an extended boom is unsupported when a holding valve is removed, oil will escape under high pressure, and can cause serious injury. Warning! Before removing any holding valve, hoses, tubes or fittings, the engine or motor MUST be shut off; the key removed; and a "DO NOT OPERATE" tag attached to the door of the truck or in case of an electric motor as the unit’s prime mover, the electrical panel MUST be "locked out" and "tagged out", preventing any accidental power up. 1. To check the piston side holding valves: Set the boom into a horizontal position, but do not completely extend the boom cylinder. Make a mark on the piston rod (with a felt pen) and observe if there is any movement indicating leakage. a. If there is no movement of the cylinder rod, then piston sealing and holding valve are free from internal leakage. b. If there is movement of the cylinder rod,

2. To check the rod side holding valve: Set the boom section to be checked in the retracted position, but do not completely retract. Make a mark on the piston side rod (with a felt tip pen) and observe if there is any movement indicating leakage. a. If there is no movement of the cylinder rod, then piston sealing and holding valve are free from internal leakage. b. If there is movement of the cylinder rod, then piston sealing and/or holding valve on the rod side have internal leakage. 1. Remove the hose connecting at the holding valve on the piston side. 2. If no oil runs out of the hose connections at the holding valve, then that means the piston seal is leaking, allowing oil to by-pass from the rod side of the cylinder to the piston side of the cylinder. 3. If oil runs out of the hose connections at the holding valve, then the holding valve on the rod side is defective.

Rock Valve Safety Instruction When performing maintenance on Schwing Equipment, the safety regulations must be followed. The observation of these regulations is the responsibility of the maintenance personnel. The following are some supplementary recommendations.

WARNING

READ FIRST! 1. WARNING! Read and understand the operation manual of the machine before attempting any repairs. If in doubt, call the manufacturer. Incorrectly done repairs endanger operational safety of the machine. 2. WARNING! Burning hazard! Never work on a hydraulic system with hot oil. 3. WARNING! Falling hazard! If you cannot work at ground level, you must use a suitable work platform. 4. WARNING! If maintenance work requires that you use a crane, hoist, fork truck, etc., you must read and understand the safety regulations for that equipment. 5. WARNING! If working the machine requires that it be operated, and you are not qualified as an operator, you must get someone who is qualified to assist you. 6. WARNING! If you will be working in a hidden area inside the machine, protect yourself by taking the key from the ignition and putting a “DO NOT OPERATE” sign on the controls. In the case of electrically driven units, disconnect the main circuit breaker and lock it in the disconnected position. 7. WARNING! Never activate the system hydraulics without checking if another workman is in a hidden position. Always yell “CLEAR”, and allow time for response, before starting the prime mover. 8. WARNING! Never use gasoline or diesel fuel as a cleaning solvent. This is critical to remember when cleaning hydraulic oil reservoirs, because gas and diesel fuels are highly explosive, and gasoline or diesel fuel traces left in the oil may ignite when compressed. 9. WARNING! Always use the correct tools for the job. Tools should be kept clean, and in good condition. 10. If you see a co-worker engaging in an unsafe practice, explain the dangers. Safety is always in the hands of those on the job. 11. WARNING! Never work on a pressurized hydraulic system. Stop the prime mover and relieve the accumulator circuit (if so equipped) before you open the hydraulic system.

Rock Valve Lubrication Points If your unit is not equipped with an auto-lube, grease your agitator bearings. There is one zerk on each side of the hopper. Grease every 200 or 300 yards, as the pour allows. Grease your agitator bearings. There is one zerk on each side of the hopper. Re-grease every two or three hundred yards, as the pour allows. NOTE! You don’t grease agitator bearings like you grease most other bearings. That is, if you normally pump in grease until you see it squirting out somewhere, you will ruin your agitator seals. When you grease the agitator bearings, watch the rubber grease cones that are located inside the hopper. You want the cones to bulge out slightly because they are full of grease, but you don’t want to have the grease come out around the shaft, because where the grease comes out concrete will be able to go in. Once concrete makes it inside of the grease cone, you will quickly wear out the bearings. When re-greasing after the hopper is full of concrete and you can no longer see the cones, just give the zerks a couple of squirts. This is one of the few times when it is better to under grease than to over grease. Grease the rock valve lubrication points before the pour begins. Once you start pumping, grease them every couple of hours. There are six zerks to grease for the rock valve, plus the two for the agitator. If your unit is equipped with an auto-lube, greasing is accomplished automatically. The grease timers in the cab must be adjusted to assure proper grease flow from each feeder. Check with SAI’s Service Department for timer adjustment instructions. The timers are usually mounted on the top of the doghouse between the seats.

First, shut off the truck engine and put the key in your pocket. Remove the 6-inch clamp between the tapered bend and the 6-inch elbow. Remove the wedge from the tapered bend, and pull the tapered bend away from the 6-inch clamp. Loosen the tension nut as explained previously. Loosen the seven cover bolts two or three full turns, but do not remove the bolts. Push forward on the end of the rock valve slewing cylinder. Because it has a single pivot point, it will push the rock valve backwards toward the loosened cover. If you meet resistance, do not force it. After you have removed the hopper grate, you can gently pry the rock valve backward from inside the hopper. Remove the hopper grate. From inside the hopper, tap the cutting ring forward, toward the spectacle plate. The ring should pop loose. If it doesn’t, loosen the cover bolts a little more, then gently pry the rock valve rearward a little more until it does. Rotate the ring 90° clockwise. (It doesn’t really matter which way you rotate, but to keep from forgetting which way you went last time, Schwing recommends going clockwise each time.) Be sure that the ring is centered in the rock valve. Tighten the cover bolts slightly, if needed, to be sure that the ring isn’t cocked one way or the other. Be sure there is no debris between the back cover and the rock valve housing. If there is, clean it out. Tighten the cover bolts just enough to bring the back plate up against the rock housing. Then tighten each bolt equally, using a torque wrench. Alternate which bolts you tighten, as you would when tightening a wheel on a car. The torque specification for these bolts (M24 x 60, 8.8 hardness) is 485 ft./lb. Replace the bolts once per year. Position the hopper grate over the hopper. Bolt it into place. Tighten the tension nut. Tighten the keeper bolt. Push the tapered bend closed and install the wedge. Remember to install the hairpin. Install the 6-inch clamps and the hairpin.

Tension Nut/Pressure Spring Do not use the Tension Nut to adjust the position of the Cutting Ring. Excessive wear of the Inlet Housing Lining, Cutting Ring, Pressure Spring, and Kidney Seal would result. The Tension Nut adjusts the Kidney Seal area of the Rock Valve ONLY. To check or adjust, remove the Keeper Bolt will line up with a threaded hole in the Setting Disc. If you are between two holes, loosen the Tension Nut so it lines up with the previous hole. Do not use a wrench to tighten. The flat sides of the Tension Nut are to loosen the nut only. Please call the Schwing Service Department if you have any questions.

Adjustment Screw

Pressure Spring If the Pressure Spring has to be replaced, dismantle the old spring and clean the vacant area thoroughly to clear it of cement dust, etc. If dust and residue are ignored, the new spring cannot be installed correctly, and the flow of concrete can pull it out of the groove. Furthermore, the high pretension leads to premature wear of the Cutting Ring and Housing Lining. Inlet Housing Lining

Cutting Ring Rock Valve Pressure Spring

NOTE! Slightly grease the new Pressure Spring when installing it. The same applies to the Kidney Seal. Do not use too much grease, because grease accumulating in the spring chamber operates as a spacer, and the consequently increased spring pretension can lead to the same damages as described above.

•

The seal is swollen due to use of aggressive or harsh cleaning agents. (See Service bulletin G-113-84, dated July 18, 1984) A considerable formation of cracks are found in the areas marked by arrows. (fig. 1) This problem is very rare. Lip (Item 1, fig. 1) is completely worn to the point that the pressure relief grooves (Items 2, fig. 1) are no longer recognizable. The distance indicated by “M” of the Kidney Seal (when force is relieved) does not exceed 30mm (1 3/16”).

• • •

Replace the Housing Lining-Oulet Side (Kidney Plate) only if scores deeper than 2.5mm are found, in the area that contacts the Kidney Seal, that are deeper than 2.5mm. You can measure this by placing a steel ruler across the kidney Plate in several places, and using a depth gauge to determine the gap.

NOTE! Outside of the area that contacts the Kidney Seal, you may detect scores that are due to aggregate particles stuck between the Rock Valve and the Kidney Plate. (See fig. 2 and fig. 3) THESE SCORES DO NOT MATTER IN THE LEAST!




  


 


 

We would like to draw your attention to the fact that under no circumstances should you allow the Kidney Seal to be run with a dry hopper. This will destroy the Kidney Seal, and is the primary cause of premature wear encountered at the outlet side of the Rock Valve. If you will be repairing the Rock, or troubleshooting a problem, always fill the hopper with water to the top of the Rock Valve before switching.

13. IMPORTANT! At no time should the Rock Valve be operated without first lubricating the outlet wear plate. Usually, spraying the plate with water or oil prior to start-up will be adequate. Moving the kidney seal against a dry plate will cause excessive wear to the seal and will lead to premature failure. If switching the Rock Valve is necessary for shop work (adjusting, inspecting, etc.), you must take the necessary precautions and ensure that the plate and seal are properly lubricated.

Spectacle Plate Lengthening the Service Life of the Housing Lining-Inlet Side The amount of wear on the Housing Lining and the Cutting Ring will vary, and it will affect the length of time they can safely be used. The condition of each part depends on outside influences that affect them daily, including varying concrete mixes and changing weather conditions. The Cutting Ring and Housing Lining cannot be expected to wear equally and will need to be replaced accordingly.

NOTE! The grooves in the Base Plate (Spectacle Plate) resulting from basic operation are irrelevant as long as the hard facing is in good working condition. To assist in achieving uniform wear and, thus, considerably longer service lives, we recommend: 1. moving the Rock Valve to the left and right end positions once a week--after thorough cleaning--and checking the condition of the cutting ring & housing lining.

Also, when you change the pivot, we recommend that you change the Pivot Bushings, if your unit has the thin, teflon coated bushings. The part number on these thin bushings is: 10016324. If your unit has the thick, steel bushing, you need not change it out. To tell if your unit has a thin or thick bushing, you must remove the rock cylinder from the rock housing. The thick bushing is one piece, about 1/4” thick. The thin bushings are in two pieces. If you don’t want to pull your slewing cylinder just to find out, we would recommend ordering the thin bushings. If you don’t need them, return them to us for credit. Pivot Bushings

By : Sheet :

Rev :

TA 1 of 1

For general welding on the rock valve housing, Schwing Germany recommends a UTPO68HH DIN 1736, S-NiCr 19 Nb, material number 2.4648. An equivalent American electrode must have the following physical and chemical properties:

Alloy by % Weight

Permissible Additives

Ni - at least 67 Cr - 18.0 to 22.0 Mn - 2.0 to 6.0 Nb - 1.5 to 3.0

C - 0.1% S - 0.015% Co - 0.1% Si - 1.0% Cu - 0.5% Ti - 0.5% Fe - 4.0% Mo - 2.0% other elements total - 0.5%

Melting range - approx. 1400 C (2550 F). Nb is Niobium and it can be replaced by Ta (Tantalum) Preheat the electrodes for 2 to 3 hours at 250 to 300 C (480 to 570 F) The electrode must be high Ni and Cr content and high elongation. For example, Huntington INCONEL #82 wire, (AWS-ERNICRS) and Huntington INCO weld A, for 1/8" (Schwing Part#30352281) or 3/32"(Schwing Part#30352282) electrode AWS-ENICRFE2 or equivalent.

The parts to be welded must be very clean. Preheat the area to be welded to 250 to 300 C (480 to 570 F). Incline the electrode slightly and weld with short arcing. To prevent final crater cracks, fill up the crater as well as possible and lift-off the arcing at the side. To prevent cracking, we recommend placement of the casting into a preheated oven and letting it cool from 600 F to room temperature over 12 hours. If an oven is not available in your city, you can try to let the weld cool slowly under an asbestos blanket, an aluminum cover, or sand.

Small Rock Valve - Repair Safety When performing maintenance on Schwing Equipment, the safety regulations must be followed. The observation of these regulations is the responsibility of the maintenance personnel. The following are some supplementary recommendations.

WARNING

READ FIRST! 1. WARNING! Read and understand the operation manual of the machine before attempting any repairs. If in doubt, call the manufacturer. Incorrectly done repairs endanger operational safety of the machine. 2. WARNING! Burning hazard! Never work on a hydraulic system with hot oil. 3. WARNING! Falling hazard! If you cannot work at ground level, you must use a suitable work platform. 4. WARNING! If maintenance work requires that you use a crane, hoist, fork truck, etc., you must read and understand the safety regulations for that equipment. 5. WARNING! If working the machine requires that it be operated, and you are not qualified as an operator, you must get someone who is qualified to assist you. 6. WARNING! If you will be working in a hidden area inside the machine, protect yourself by taking the key from the ignition and putting a “DO NOT OPERATE” sign on the controls. In the case of electrically driven units, disconnect the main circuit breaker and lock it in the disconnected position. 7. WARNING! Never activate the system hydraulics without checking if another workman is in a hidden position. Always yell “CLEAR”, and allow time for response, before starting the prime mover. 8. WARNING! Never use gasoline or diesel fuel as a cleaning solvent. This is critical to remember when cleaning hydraulic oil reservoirs, because gas and diesel fuels are highly explosive, and gasoline or diesel fuel traces left in the oil may ignite when compressed. 9. WARNING! Always use the correct tools for the job. Tools should be kept clean, and in good condition. 10. If you see a co-worker engaging in an unsafe practice, explain the dangers. Safety is always in the hands of those on the job. WARNING! Never work on a pressurized hydraulic system. Stop the prime mover and relieve the accumulator circuit (if so equipped) before you open the hydraulic system.

To ensure uniform wear and, thus, CONSIDERABLY LONGER SERVICE LIVES, we recommend the following: 1. Move the Rock Valve to the left and right end position once a week after thorough cleaning, and check the condition of both the Cutting Ring and the Housing Lining. 2. Turn the Cutting Ring 90 degrees when there is a clearance greater than 1.0mm-1.5mm (.0393”-.0590”) between the Cutting Ring and the Housing Lining. Housing Lining

It is only necessary to loosen the Securing Bolts of the Housing Cover approximately 10mm (.3937”) in order to release the Pressure Spring and turn the Cutting Ring. 3. Check the distance between the Cutting Ring and the Rock after each turn of the Cutting Ring. If it exceeds 8mm (.315”), the pretension of the Pressure Spring is not enough to correctly press the worn cutting ring up against the Spectacle Plate. In this case, the Cutting Ring has to be replaced. Inlet Housing Lining Cutting Ring Rock Valve Pressure Spring

25. Reassemble the Rock Valve assembly in the reverse order that it was disassembled. Slide the cover back in place.

NOTE! Upon reassembly, generously grease the Kidney Seal and the Kidney Plate. Also, generously grease the Cutting Ring and the Spectacle Plate. This is important, because after you have assembled the Rock and done some necessary adjustment, you are going to have to shift the Rock several times before making the final adjustments.

26. Adjust the Tension Nut, which is tightened only hand tight. If the Locking Bolt shown can be installed in the Setting Disc freely, then do so. If the hole in the Tension Nut does not align with the thread hole in the Setting Disc, loosen the Tension Nut to the previous hole, and install the Locking Bolt.

NOTE! Check to make sure that the proper clearance is obtained between the Rock Valve and the Cutting Ring and between the Rock Valve and the Kidney Plate. If the Rock components are worn, the dimensions may be larger that specified. If the dimensions are too small, loosen the Adjusting Nut and pry the Rock Valve in the direction needed. Stroke the unit several times, and recheck the dimensions. If the dimensions are correct, reinstall the Tension Nut and readjust.

If the Pressure Spring has to be replaced, remove the old spring and clean the vacant area thoroughly to clear it of concrete residue. If dust and residue is ignored, the new spring cannot be installed correctly, and the flow of concrete could pull it out of the groove. Furthermore, the high pretension resulting from reassembling with concrete residue in the area of the spring leads to premature wear of the Cutting Ring and Housing Lining.

Inlet Housing Lining

Pressure Spring

Figure 1

NOTE! Slightly grease the new Pressure Spring when installing it. The same applies to the Kidney Seal. Do not use too much grease, because grease accumulating in the spring chamber operates as a spacer, increasing the spring pretension. Although these components will withstand a great deal of hard usage, the Pressure Spring and Kidney Seal should be inspected whenever the Cutting Ring is replaced.

A considerable formation of cracks are found in the areas marked by arrows. This problem is very rare. The lip is completely worn to the point that the pressure relief grooves are no longer recognizable. The distance indicated by “M” of the released kidney seal does not exceed 30mm (1.1875"). 2

Figure 1

Replace the outlet housing lining (kidney plate) only if scores deeper than 1.5mm are found in the area that contacts the kidney seal. You can measure this by placing a steel ruler across the kidney plate in several places and using a depth gauge to determine the gap.

NOTE! Outside of the area that contacts the Kidney Seal, you may detect scores that are due to aggregate particles stuck between the Rock Valve and the Kidney Plate. (See fig. 2 and fig. 3) THESE SCORES DO NOT MATTER IN THE LEAST!

Figure 2

Figure 3

CAUTION! Under no circumstances should you allow the kidney seal to be run with a dry hopper. This will destroy the kidney seal and is the primary cause of premature wear encountered at the outlet side of the Rock Valve. If you will be repairing the Rock or troubleshooting a problem, always fill the hopper with water to the top of the Rock Valve before switching.

Adjustment of the Slewing Cylinder and Installation of the Slewing Yoke Please be advised that there is no possible adjustment to align the Rock Valve with the material cylinder openings. Our service personnel have been made aware that some maintenance personnel have been unscrewing the slewing yoke to compensate for the Rock missing the holes while shifting. This is absolutely NOT to be done! By unscrewing the slewing yoke, you risk tearing off the threads on the end of the cylinder rod, which would cause immediate breakdown of the unit. 2 1

Figure 1

These units were designed to have no adjustment. If you replace a shifting cylinder or a slewing yoke, you must make sure it is screwed the full distance on the threads and then locked down. If you do notice that the Rock is missing the material cylinder openings, you must check to see where the problem may be (i.e., articulated bearings, shifting cylinder (internal), or Rock slewing lever may need adjustment). Please call the Schwing Service Department at (651) 429-0999 with any questions regarding this matter.

Change rams

• •

When you begin to see not just cement dust in your waterbox at the end of the day, but also small bits of sand or even pebbles, it is time to change the rams. When changing rams, you will have to put your hands in the waterbox on several occasions. In the past, we instructed you to stop the engine each and every time before putting your hands into the waterbox, and we still highly recommend this practice. The local control on-off switch for the concrete pump and the manual handle for activating the concrete pump are located in positions that make them impossible for you to activate while your hands are in the waterbox. If however, another person has access to these devices, or the “ram change” operation panel, the danger of accidental activation increases.

•

•

The stroke limiter is set to minimum output. The operation stations (the rear control panel, the cable remote box, the radio remote box) are disabled. Three LEDs (oil cooler status, oil filter status, and E-Stop status) on the rear control panel will be flashing. These LEDs will continue to flash as long as the O I switch is in the I position. Three LEDs (rear control, cable control, radio control) on the CPC will be OFF.

The concrete pump can only be actuated with the Forward/Reverse switch to the right of the O I selector switch. This momentary switch is spring loaded to the center position and activates only while it is being held in a forward or reverse position. While operating in ram change mode the pistons will move at the slowest possible speed. ramctrl.eps

WARNING

If you insist on changing rams with the motor running, you must take the following precautions to avoid amputation of hands, arms, and fingers: Do not use the remote controller for this procedure! Unplug it, and store it. Do not allow anyone else at the rear control panel or the forward/reverse hand valve when you are changing rams. The chances of accidental amputation are greatly increased if more than one person is around. You will have fewer distractions when you are alone. If someone approaches you when you are changing rams, stop working until the person leaves.

Remove the old rams.

Use the following procedure to remove the old rams. 1. Close the shutoff valve (also known as the ball cock and quarter turn valve). The shut-off valve is located on the concrete pump control block (Figure 2). This gives you control over the direction of travel of the differential cylinders.

Leave about 1.5 inches of travel, which will allow you to remove the spacer coupling (dogbone). 4. Push the emergency stop button on the operator’s panel. Stop the engine, and put the key in your pocket. (Stopping the engine before putting your hands in the waterbox is mentioned at every appropriate spot.) Figure 4 Remove the bolts from the dogbone 6. Be sure all personnel and tools are out of the waterbox, then start the engine. Release the emergency stop button. Finish retracting the driver side rod into the waterbox.

9. Start the engine. Release the emergency stop button. Slowly extend the cylinder rod until it just contacts the rubber ram flange. NOTE! Be careful not to drive the rubber ram into the material cylinder. If it happens that you accidentally knock the ram into the material cylinder so far that you can’t reach it, you will have to remove it by knocking it out from the Rock Valve end of the unit. Call the Schwing America Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for instructions on this procedure. 10. Push the emergency stop button on the operator’s panel. Stop the engine, and put the key in your pocket. There is a groove in the ram flange that will line up with a groove in the cylinder flange. An M12 x 45 bolt with nut will drop into this groove and allow you to pull the ram out. The fit should be snug, but there is no need to tighten the nut with tools (Figure 6). (Note that the ram flange and cylinder flange are shown outside of the waterbox for clarity of the illustration.)

Replace any damaged or worn parts with new ones. Install the new rams.

Use the following procedure to install the new rams. 1. Apply Loc-tite primer (or equivalent) to the M20 bolts. Allow the primer to dry. 2. While the primer is drying, apply a liberal coat of clean grease to the new rams. There is no such thing as too much grease here, because the excess

Line up the grooves, and drop your nut and bolt into place to hold the assembly together. Again, you should only tighten the nut finger tight. 4. Start the engine. Release the emergency stop button. Slowly extend the cylinder until the ram is installed in the material cylinder but the mounting flange is still exposed enough to remove the nut and bolt (Figure 8).

Start the engine. Release the emergency stop button. Slowly retract the rod again until there is room to install the dogbone. 7. Push the emergency stop button on the operator’s panel. Stop the engine, and put the key in your pocket. Apply Loc-tite 242 or equivalent to two of the M20 bolts. Place the dogbone up against the flange of the new ram. Install two of the M20 bolts (with Loc-tite) and the cone washer sets. At this time finger tighten only.

9. Push the emergency stop button on the operator’s panel. Stop the engine, and put the key in your pocket. You may have to slightly rotate the dogbone to align the bolt holes with the cylinder flange. When aligned, coat the two remaining M20 bolts with Loc-tite and install, including the cone washer sets. Once all four bolts are started, you may tighten the bolts to the torque specification for M20 10.9 bolts (420 ft/lbs). 10. Repeat all steps in the Remove the old rams procedure and Install the new rams procedure for the passenger side ram. 11. Open the shutoff valve. Note that the unit will not cycle with this valve closed.

NOTE! It is important to install the dogbone against the new ram first, not the cylinder flange. This gives you an extra 6 to 8 inches of safety margin when you extend the cylinder to meet the dogbone. If you attach to the cylinder flange first, chances are good that you will accidentally knock the new ram into the material cylinder so far that you won’t be able to reach it.

Changing the material cylinders The material cylinders also eventually wear out. They are considered worn out when the inside diameter has grown 3 millimeters beyond the specification for new. For example, a 750-18 has 180mm material cylinders. When the inside diameter reaches 183 mm, they are worn out. With 150’s they are worn out at 153, etc. Normally, it is the end attached to the rock valve that wears out first, because it sees the most concrete. The waterbox end may be in brand new condition, because that end never experiences concrete. For this reason, the material cylinders were designed to be able to flip end for end. That way you can move the worn out part to the waterbox and the like-new part to the concrete valve for double the life. If you are going to do this, you have to catch the wear on the material cylinders before they get too thin or break through in one or more spots. Once that happens you can’t flip them, because they would be structurally too weak to hold the pressure forces at the waterbox end.

2. Select the “forward” mode of the S1 valve, AT THE SLOWEST POSSIBLE SPEED! Look into the material cylinder from the valve end. The gap between the alignment tool and the cylinder wall should be seen as even rays of light. When the cylinder gets fully extended, the alignment tool may drop a small amount or even barely touch the material cylinder wall LIGHT RAYS

Material Cylinder Alignment 1. To visually inspect the alignment, put a trouble light in the waterbox, at the opening to the cylinder being aligned. Be careful with fingers and hands in the waterbox. Put the trouble light in the waterbox, then remove your hand BEFORE proceeding to the next step.

ALIGNMENT TOOL

NOTE! If the alignment tool should contact the cylinder wall at any time, return the pump to neutral immediately! Damage may occur to cylinder wall. 3. If, for example, the alignment tool contacts the cylinder on the lower side, loosen the mounting bolts at the waterbox a little bit, then tighten the LOWER bolts first. This will lower the bottom of the material cylinder. When the alignment is close, tighten the top bolts and recheck the alignment. When the alignment is within specification, the alignment tool will travel the entire length of the cylinder without touching the cylinder wall. If the alignment tool is not always located exactly in the middle of the cylinder during the travel, but DOES NOT TOUCH, then realignment is not necessary. Minor misalignments are compensated for with the rubber ram. Repeat procedure for the other cylinder.

Pumping on piston side Piston side pumping changes your concrete pump from a low-pressure, high-volume machine into a high pressure, low-volume machine. This would be handy, for example, to pump long distances horizontally or vertically. Piston side operation dramatically raises the maximum pressure on the concrete. For this reason, it is crucial that your entire material delivery system be rated to handle the available pressure and be maintained in likenew condition. Remember that pipe wall thickness wears with each yard of concrete pumped. Inspect the wall thickness regularly. The maximum material pressure available on the piston side depends on which differential and material cylinders you purchased with your unit. The maximum material pressure is recorded on the main ID tag. To convert your machine to piston side operation, you must have some additional hoses and fittings, plus the tools to install them. Loosen for rotation

When changing the hoses from the rod side port to the piston side port, you must cross them. This keeps the machine in the same sequence of events as when it is hooked up for rod side pumping. Failure to cross the hoses will result in pumping in reverse whenever you select forward. When you have finished with the need for piston side operation, change it back to rod side immediately. When you are configured on the piston side, the safety rules for the following topics become even more important: • Opening lines under pressure • Sucking back plugged lines before opening • Pressure-handling capacity of pipes, hoses, and clamps in your delivery system • The dangers of blockages All of these items are covered in the Safety Manual. Understand the rules and live by them.

The packings must never be under compression from the tension ring. If the packings are under compression from the tension ring, it is possible that the cylinder rod may become scored after a short period of time during operation. Therefore when Dimension A is subtracted from Dimension B, the dimension of the spacing disks must equal the difference with a tolerance of minus nothing, plus 1 mm or .039 inch.

Set the packing set (unwrapped) on a at surface and set the tension ring on top of the packing set. Measure the distance from the at surf ace to the bottom side of the tension ring that mates to the cylinder housing when assembled (Figure 2, Dimension B).

Shimming the Differential Cylinders

Tension Ring

Determining the proper shimm size When ever you rebuild differential cylinders, it may be necessary to add shimms to the tension ring. Adding shimms protects the cylinder rod from the cheveron seals in the event the cheveron seals expand. Use the following procedure to determine the proper amount of shimming necessary.

Using a caliper measure the distance from the top of the bushing down to the bushing seal recess. See Figure 1.

57.40 - 57.12 .28 mm (.011") Refer to SAIE 5221 Figure 18 Formula for determining shimm size In this example, we would need to add 1 - 0.5mm shimm to the Tension ring. This will ensure that the cheveron seals will not expand, thus preventing wear on the cylinder rod. See Figure 4

NOTE! A maximum of 5 shimms can be used.

NOTE! Dimension B can never be greater than dimension A or cylinder rod damage can occur.

Hydraulic Pumps Hydraulic Pump Drive All hydraulic pumps, such as the one for the concrete pump, placing boom, and agitator, are mounted on the distribution gearcase. When you are driving the truck, the power of the truck engine is transmitted through the truck transmission, through a propeller shaft, through the bottom of the distribution gearcase, through another propeller shaft, and into the rear end of the truck. When you are operating the unit, the distribution gearcase interrupts the power to the rear end of the truck and transmits it to internal gears that turn the hydraulic pumps. Changing between travel and pumping modes is accomplished by means of a power takeoff (PTO) switch in the truck cab

Hydraulic Pumps

Schwing, we route signals to the pump from the hydraulic stroke limiter and on single circuit units with the dampener. The effect of these devices is to tell the pump to put out a different amount of hydraulic oil per revolution, to accommodate the pump operator. Your unit may be equipped with an A7VO pump or an A11VO pump.

Placing boom hydraulic pumps

A7VO

The hydraulic pumps for the placing boom is a variable displacement pump, either a swash plate (A11VO), or an axial piston (A7VO). Both have load sensing control and feed all of the following components: • the hydraulic cylinders on the boom sections • the hydraulic cylinders on the outriggers • the hydraulic motor for the boom slewing gear • the hydraulic motor for the water pump • the hydraulic motor of the compressor (optional equipment) The directional control valves for each of the afore mentioned circuits are incorporated into control blocks and equipped with hand levers. In addition, the control block for the boom functions have electric over oil piloting for operation via remote control. A11VO S103.eps

Concrete pump hydraulic pumps The hydraulic pumps for the concrete pump circuit are bent axis, variable displacement piston pumps (A7VO) or a swash plate pumps (A11VO). They are horsepower controlled, which means that as pressure rises, the flow decreases, so the power consumption remains constant. We use this type of pump so the truck engine will not bog down under hard pumping conditions. The pumps also accept external signals for control of the output. At

Operating pressure applies a force on a piston within the control piston on to a rocker arm. An externally adjustable spring force is applied to the other side of the rocker arm to determine the power setting. Should the operating pressure exceed the set spring force, the pilot control valve is operated via the rocker arm, allowing the pump to swivel towards zero output. This in turn reduces the effective moment on the arm of the rocker, thus allowing the operating pressure to rise in the same ratio by which the output flow is reduced (Vg = constant). When the pump is bypassing at zero pressure, a spring ensures that the pump is swivelled to max. displacement (Vg max).l

Variation: Hydraulic Stroke Limiter (H...) The hydraulic stroke limiter allows the maximum displacement to be infinitely varied or limited as required. Control range Vg max to Vg min. The displacement is set by means of the pilot pressure applied at port X1. The hydraulic stroke limiter is overridden by the constant power control, i.e. below the power curve (power hyperbola), displacement is adjusted in relation to pilot pressure. If the set flow or the operating pressure is such that the power curve is exceeded, the constant power control overrides the stroke limiter and reduces displacement until the power hyperbola is restored.

pump is available with a through drive to accept a gear pump or a second axial piston pump up to the same size (100% through drive).

The A11VO is a variable displacement pump of axial piston swashplate design for use in open circuit hydrostatic drives. Designed principally for use in mobile applications. A wide variety of controls are available. Setting of the constant power control is possible via external adjustments, even when the unit is operating. The

Output flow is proportional to drive speed and pump displacement and is steplessly variable between maximum and zero.

Should the operating pressure exceed the set spring force, the pilot control valve is operated via the rocker arm, allowing the pump to swivel towards zero output. This in turn reduces the effective moment on the arm of the rocker, thus allowing the operating pressure to rise in the same ratio by which the output flow is reduced (pB • Vg = constant).

Hydraulic Pumps

Power Regulator With Hydraulic Stroke Limiter (LRH) The LRH is similar to the constant power regulator but has a second sensor which responds to a low-pressure pilot signal allowing the pump to be de-stroked on demand. The pump's reduced displacement is proportional to the signal and gives overriding control within the set power band. This control is useful where it is necessary to alter maximum flow to accommodate certain conditions.

Constant Power Regulator (LR) This regulator is designed so that an exact hyperbola curve of pressure/flow is realized. Therefore, the pump makes maximum use of available power. Setting the required power output simply involves setting the pressure at which the regulator begins to destroke the pump. The pump then follows a constant power curve throughout the regulated range. It is also possible to adjust the regulator to compensate for altitude changes, prime engine options or usage changes.

Voac Variable Displacement Axial Piston Pump Variable displacement pumps work according to the swash plate pricipal: 9 pistons operate in a rotating cylinder barrel where they fulfill one suction and one presssure stroke per rotaiton. The axial movement of the pistons is provided by an adjustable swash plate. he setting angle (0-17˚) is varied in proportion to the

desired displacement flow. The setting range can be mechanically limited by setting screws. The position of the swash plate can be controlled via a visual mechanical indicator. The latest knowledge and experience with regard to noise reduction has been used in the development of V30D. All components used in the V30D are manufactured from high grade materials and machined with close tolerances.

Hydraulic Parts “SP” Series directional valves SP” Series directional valves are 4-way valves. As opposed to the normal 4-way valves, these valves have drillings for load pressure sensing, which are connected to each other via shuttle valves. This means that the highest load pressure is passed through the chain of shuttle valves to the sensing system of the pump. B

A

A throttle installed in the place of the load-holding valve allows the maximum flow across the spool to be matched to particular requirements. If a cylinder requires varying flows, a mechanical stroke limiter is fitted, In the same way as for “SM” Series valves, the spool is matched to the spool boring in the valve body.

As opposed to the previous solution (with pilot oil carrying plate), the new series has an internal pilot oil supply by means of drillings in the valve body.

How it Functions

1

Handle

Manual override which controls the position of the directional spool. The spool is spring centered, so if force is not applied to the handle, the spool along with the handle will return to the neutral position.

2

Directional Spool

Directs hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump to either the water pump or high pressure water pump.

3

High Pressure Water Pump Relief Valve

Limits the amount of pressure allowed when the high pressure water pump is activated to 280 bar.

4

Water Pump Relief Valve

Limits the amount of pressure allowed when the water pump is activated to 180 bar

5

Pressure Compensator

Maintains constant flow for an individual function. Even when the pressure changes from a variation in load of the activated function or from multiple functions being activated.

6

Shuttle Valve

The shuttle valve system uses passage ways to deliver the highest pressure signal to the load sensing port.

7

Electrical/Oil/Oil - Proportional Solenoid w/quarter turn type plug

Proportionally directs pilot oil to move the directional spool.

8

Main Relief Valve

Limits maximum pressure in the hand valve - As the pressure increases to 360 bar, the relief valve will open, dropping pressure on the spring side of the inlet compensator. The inlet compensator will open allowing a larger volume oil to escape to tank.

9

Pretension Pressure Reducing Valve

Reduces pilot pressure to a maximum of 20 bar.

10

Inlet Compensator

Used in conjugations with the main relief cartridge. When pressure reaches 360 bar the main relief valve will open. This will lower the pressure on the spring side of the inlet compensator. Higher pressure oil will push the inlet compensator open allowing oil to escape to tank.

11

Pretension Filter

Filters the pretension oil passing through the hand valve. Used to protect the pilot oil system from debris in the system.

12

Directional Spool

Directs hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump to either enable the boom or outrigger functions.

13

Boom Slewing Relief Valves

Reduces boom slewing pressure to a maximum of 300 bar.

14

Sub-Plate

Block containing a “P” (Inflow) and “R” (Return) port as well as an additional control and measurement ports LS, Z and M.

15

Control Block Housing Valve Section

Enclosure that houses the hand valve spools and cartridges

Boom Holding Valves Schwing uses a specially-designed hydraulically unlockable check valve on all hydraulic cylinders which operate placing boom sections. These valves seal the hydraulic cylinder to prevent it from creeping or moving until pressure is applied to it. If too much weight is applied to a boom section, it also acts as a structural safety valve and relieves that excess pressure at a controlled rate. A holding valve is installed at both ends of the hydraulic cylinder to prevent movement and limit pressure in either direction. If you should have a problem with a boom section creeping, position the boom in an area which still produces pressure in the corresponding cylinder but leaves the holding valve in an accessible area. Loosen the fitting of the pressure connection of the working line and the leakage oil connection. With the hydraulic pump not turning, you will be able to see which portion of the valve is leaking.

PRINT

Hydraulic Parts

If oil flowing out uniformly from the leakage oil connection, this indicates that the auxiliary safety valve is not properly sealing. If this holding valve is on boom section 1 cylinder, holding valve replacement is necessary. This auxiliary safety valve protects the cylinder and the boom from excess pressure; therefore, this valve must not be set at random. Precision setting for a specific placing boom model is necessary. If hydraulic oil is flowing out uniformly from the working line, this indicates that the check valve is not sealing properly, or debris in the oil has caused the unlocking system to hang up and not allow the check valve ball to seat. If there are any questions concerning holding valves or other areas of your Schwing equipment that you need answered, contact your local Schwing dealer or Schwing America, Inc. for more information.

Slewing Brake Valves

Flow When Lowering:

Boom Slewing Brake Valve - Rexroth Spec Sheet

Model MHB 10 is a load lowering valve which prevents a negative load from causing hydraulic motor or cylinder “run away”, and allows hydraulically controlled, cavitation-free lowering operation.

When the driven unit is supplied with fluid, the pilot pressure acts on the spool area (6) through port A. When the pressure exceeds the opening force required by the spring, the load lowering spool (2) opens and connects ports B2 to B1.

Basically they consist of a housing (1), load lowering spool (2), check valve (3), secondary relief valve (4) and spring (5).

The valve opening is proportional to the opening pressure. When the pressure in the pilot line drops, the load lowering spool (2) is moved into a new position by the spring. Thus, due to the force balance, an automatic load lowering operation is achieved.

Free Reverse Flow:

Any pressure spikes caused when the load is stopped are captured by the pressure relief valve (4).

Fluid may flow port B1 via the check valve (3) to port B2 or to the driven unit.

Leak free closure: When the pilot signal is removed and the check valve closes: port B2 is sealed off from port B1

2

Soft Switch Relief Cartridge

A relief valve that opens up when pressure build higher than 80 bar and allows oil to escape to tank until 80 bar of pressure is maintained.

3

Main Relief Cartridge

A relief valve that opens up when pressure build higher than 350 bar and allows oil to escape to tank until 350 bar of pressure is maintained.

4

Poppet Valve

Used in conjugations with the main relief cartridge and the soft switch cartridge. When the soft switch circuit is not engaged, it will take 350 bar of pressure to open the poppet valve and allow oil to drain to tank. When the soft switch circuit is engaged, the poppet will open when pressure climbs above 80 bar.

5

S1 Spool

Controls the Forward/Neutral/Reverse direction of the concrete pump, by redirecting the flow of hydraulic oil in the system.

6

S2 Spool

Directs the hydraulic oil to either the left or right differential cylinders. The spool is moved by pilot oil coming from the MPS control block.

Poppet Valve

The poppet valve will open, allowing oil from the P2 and P3 port to be routed to tank. This will disable the concrete pumping system

3

Poppet Valve

The poppet valve will open, allowing oil from the P1 port to be routed to tank. This will disable the boom system

Directional Spool Valve

When energized the Directional Spool Valve will open a passage way for the oil coming from the P2 & P3 port to the spring side of the poppet valve. This pressure along with the spring will force the poppet valve shut, allowing oil to flow to the concrete pumping system. When de-energized the Directional Spool Valve will block the flow of oil to the spring side of the poppet valve. With no pressure on the spring side of the poppet valve. Oil from the P2 & P3 ports will open the poppet valve and will be routed to tank. This will disable the concrete pumping system.

Pressure Regulator Valve

A valve containing two spools. the 300 bar pressure regulator spool and the 20 bar Delta P spool.

Delta P (20 bar) Spool

The valve compares pressure before and after the orifice and maintains the pressure drop (differential pressure ∆p) across the orifice – and therefore the pump flow – constant. If differential pressure ∆p increases, the pump is swivelled back towards Vg min, and if ∆p decreases the pump is swivelled out towards Vg max until a balance is restored within the valve.

Pressure Regulator Spool (load sensing valve)

The load sensing valve is a flow control valve which operates as a function of the load pressure to regulate the pump displacement in order to match the requirement of the actuator. The pump flow is influenced by the external orifice (control block, throttle) fitted between pump and actuator, but is not affected by load pressure throughout the range below the set pressure.

Pressure Compensator

The pressure compensator serves to maintain a constant pressure in the hydraulic system, within the control range of the pump. The pump therefore supplies only the amount of hydraulic fluid required by the actuators.

Stroke Regulation/Begining of Regulation Spring

The hydraulic stroke limiter is used to smoothly adjust the flow between Vg max and Vg min. The power control overrides it. Displacement is set by the pilot pressure existing at port X1. The hydraulic stroke limiter takes the required positioning pressure from the high pressure.

Horsepower Spool (Constant Power)

The Horsepower spool controls the output flow of the pump in relation to the pressure so that the power of the drive unit is not exceeded. As the pressure increase, the Horsepower Spool will open, allowing a passage way for oil to move through the Horsepower Spool and push against the swashplate piston, destroking the pump.

1

Horsepower Spool (Constant Power)

The Horsepower spool controls the output flow of the pump in relation to the pressure so that the power of the drive unit is not exceeded. As the pressure increase, the Horsepower Spool will open, allowing a passage way for oil to move through the Horsepower Spool and push against the swashplate piston, destroking the pump.

2

Pressure Cut-off (350 bar)

Pressure cut-off corresponds to a pressure control which adjusts the pump displacement back to Vg min when the pressure signal reaches 350 bar.

Stroke Regulation

When the pressure signal from the stroke limiter exceeds the Stroke Regulation pressure spring. The Stroke Regulation spool will open, allowing a passage way for the oil to move through the Stroke Regulation spool

Delta-P Spool

The valve compares pressure before and after the orifice and maintains the pressure drop (differential pressure ∆p) across the orifice – and therefore the pump flow – constant. If differential pressure ∆p increases, the pump is swivelled back towards Vg min, and if ∆p decreases the pump is swivelled out towards Vg max until a balance is restored within the valve.

Pressure Settings Check the accumulator Pre-Charge After charging an accumulator that has had no initial gas pre-charge, allow 20 to 30 minutes for the gas temperature and pressure to stabilize. Recheck the gas pre-charge pressure and adjust if necessary. After the accumulator has been put in service it is important that the pre-charge pressure is checked at least once in the first week to verify the initial precharge has not changed due to temperature and pressure stabilization. If the check reveals no loss in pressure, the pre-charge should be checked on the following schedule: • 1st Check - 1 week • 2nd Check - 3 months • 3rd Check - 1 year • 4th Check and continued - yearly

WARNING EXPLOSION CAUSED BY IMPROPER ACCUMULATOR CHARGING CAN RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY! * Follow the charging instructions exactly! * Use ONLY dry nitrogen to charge the accumulator! * NEVER use oxygen or compressed air to charge the accumulator!

Read all instructions for charging accumulators before beginning the charging procedure. Accumulators must be charged only with dry nitrogen. Compressed air and oxygen must never be used, because oxygen molecules combine with hydraulic oil, lower the flash point of the oil to less than room temperature, and cause an explosion. Workers have died using compressed air or oxygen to charge accumulators (Figure 40). Use only dry nitrogen, never liquid nitrogen. explwarn.eps

Figure 40 Charging accumulators improperly can cause injury or death The procedure for checking the accumulator charge pressure and the procedure for charging the accumulator are described in the following steps: 1. Before you begin, you will need a charging kit (Figure 41). Do not attempt to charge the accumulators without one. Order the charge valve assembly from Schwing America using part number 30355436. 2. You must use a high-pressure regulator with the nitrogen bottle. If it was not supplied with the bottle, order one before proceeding with this job. Before beginning the charging procedure, stop the engine, remove the key, and put a “Do Not Operate” tag over the key switch. Put the key in your pocket, so no one can start the engine

Figure 44 Detail of accumulator gas valve area 6. On the charge valve assembly (Figure 43, close the bleed valve (turn it clockwise all the way in). If a hose is connected to the charge valve stem, disconnect the hose from the charge valve stem. This step closes the charge valve stem to prevent the gas pressure from escaping out of the hose. It ensures that the initial pressure reading is accurate. 7. Find the swivel nut on the charge valve assembly (Figure 43). Screw the swivel nut onto the accumulator gas valve. Tighten to 10–15 in./lb. 8. After the swivel nut is attached, depress the push button on the top of the charge valve assembly (Figure 43). This presses a pin into the accumulator gas valve and opens it. Read the pressure on the charge valve assembly pressure gauge. The pressure should read 100 bar (1450 PSI). • If pressure must be added, proceed to Step 10. • If pressure is too high, skip to Step 14. • If no adjustment is necessary, skip to Step 17.

Pressure Settings

9. Be sure that the nitrogen bottle supply valve is firmly closed. Attach the high-pressure regulator to the nitrogen bottle, then attach the hose to the highpressure regulator. Finally, attach the other end of the hose to the charge valve stem on the charge valve assembly (Figure 43. 10. Do not open the nitrogen bottle supply valve yet. Turn the regulator adjustment handle on the highpressure regulator (Figure 43) counter clockwise to its minimum setting (closed). 11. Slowly open the nitrogen bottle supply valve (Figure 43). You will get a reading on the tank pressure gauge side of the regulator. If there is enough pressure in the nitrogen bottle to do the job, proceed to Step 13.

NOTE! If there is not at least 1450 PSI in the nitrogen bottle (as shown on the regulator gauge at this time), you will not be able to charge the accumulator nitrogen to the 1450 PSI specification. If that is the case, you will need a new bottle of nitrogen before proceeding. 12. Adjust the regulator adjustment handle clockwise, raising the regulated pressure. The accumulator will begin to fill. Continue filling until the charge valve assembly pressure gauge (Figure 43) reads the desired pressure of 1450 PSI. Close the nitrogen bottle supply valve. 13. If you overcharge the nitrogen pressure, refer to (Figure 43) and proceed as follows: • Close the nitrogen bottle supply valve. • Depress the push button on the top of the charge valve assembly. • Slowly open the bleed valve on the charge kit. Close the bleed valve when the correct pressure is reached on the charge valve pressure gauge.

NOTE! Never let nitrogen out of the accumulator by pressing the gas valve pin with a foreign object. The high pressure may rupture the valve seal! 14. Let the nitrogen sit in the accumulator for 10 to 15 minutes. This allows the gas temperature to stabilize. Depress the push button on top of the charge valve assembly. Recheck the pressure on the charge valve assembly pressure gauge.

HOME

Pressure Settings 15. Add or release nitrogen until the pressure is correct. Be sure that the bleed valve is closed before adding pressure and that the nitrogen bottle supply valve is closed before releasing pressure. 16. When the correct pressure is reached, refer to (Figure 43) and proceed as follows: • Close the nitrogen bottle supply valve. • Open the charge valve assembly bleed valve. This releases the pressure in the hose, charge valve assembly, and regulator. • While holding the charge valve assembly on the accumulator, unscrew the charge valve swivel nut. • Remove the charge valve assembly. • If you are finished with the charge valve assembly, remove the hose and regulator. 45. Make a bubbly mixture from soap and water. Spread the mixture around the accumulator gas valve to check for gas leaks. Gas leaks will push the bubbles away from the area of the leak. If you find a leak, replace the accumulator or have it repaired by qualified personnel. Never repair an accumulator yourself. 46. Replace the gas valve seal cap (tighten to 22 ft/lb), and hand-tighten the valve protection cap. 47. If your concrete pump has two accumulators, repeat this procedure for each accumulator.

Main System Pumps A11VO To perform the proper adjustments of flow, horsepower, beginning of stroke limitation and the pressure cut-off to the tandem A11VO main system hydraulic pumps, the following steps must be done in order that they are listed;

Setting the Flow Rate Before flow metering the pumps, ensure that the maximum engine Rpm’s are set to the proper specifications. All Schwing units have a metal ID tag located inside the cab displaying the specific RPM settings for that particular unit. Set the supplement system pressure to 0 bar by turning the adjustment knob all the way out on the electric stroke limiter. This will avoid false readings of the flow rate until the maximum flow rate and horsepower break points are set.

Setting Stroke Limitation Now that the maximum flow rate and horsepower settings have been made, the beginning of stroke limitation can be set. Adjust the supplement system pressure to the maximum pressure of 50 bar. 1. Make sure the stroke limit potentiometer at the rear operation panel or remote box is at the maximum material output setting.

Figure 51 Stroke Limiters (two generations) 3. Increase the engine Rpm's to the maximum setting and while watching the flow meter scale, slowly turn the stroke limit potentiometer to the minimum material output until the maximum flow rate begins to drop. 4. When the flow rate begins to drop, stop turning the potentiometer and read the pressure on the 0 to 40 bar gauge. The reading that is seen is the beginning of stroke limitation. The reading should be between 5 to 7 bar. If it is not, then adjust the beginning of stroke limitation screw accordingly to achieve the proper pressure reading. a. If the pressure is too high, then turn the screw counter-clockwise (out) to reduce the pressure. b. If the pressure is too low, then turn the screw clockwise (in) to increase the pressure.

Q-min Output Flow Once the beginning of stroke limitation is set, the next step is to check the Q min output flow. 1. With the 0 to 40 bar gauge still in the electric stroke limit line going to the Y port of the hydraulic pumps. Increase the engine Rpm's to the maximum setting and while watching the flow meter scale, turn the stroke limit potentiometer to the minimum material output. The 0 to 40 bar gauge should be reading approximately 25 bar more than the beginning of stroke limitation setting to ensure the hydraulic pumps are all the way to the minimum against the Q min stop. The Q min reading should be between 15 to 25 liters per minute. If it is too high, turn the Q min screw out until the reading is correct or if it is to low, turn the

NOTE! All screw adjustments with the system relief’s and pressure cut-off must be done while the unit (pumpkit) is in the neutral position.

Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. The specifications for each circuit are shown on the hydraulic schematics found in the Appendix of this manual. The hydraulic schematics are the only documents in this manual that have been updated specifically for your unit, by the serial number, so in each of the following procedures you will be told to refer to the schematic for the pressure required. • Preheat the hydraulic oil Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40°− 60° C). In the past we could pressure out a function in the boom or outrigger system to create heat, but load sensing systems no longer allow maximum oil flow to be forced over relief. Because of this the agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. To preheat the hydraulic oil: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 53) and close it. NOTE! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, order one from the Schwing Spare



 Figure 53 Agitator shutoff valve 3. When the oil temperature gauge shows 50˚C, open the shutoff valve.

Setting pressures on Hi-flo -6 pumpkits a. To set the pressure of the main relief valve on Hi-flo pumpkits, you must first disable the soft switch circuit. Simply locate the ball cock for the soft switch circuit (Figure 54) and close it by rotating the handle 90 degrees. b. The quarter turn shutoff valve for the concrete pump will also need to be closed during this procedure.

NOTE! Main system adjustments are preset at the factory. The following procedure begins with adjustment of the main relief cartridge and pressure cutoff. If proper pressures can not be obtained through these steps, refer to the beginning of this procedure for specific instructions on the adjustment of flow, horsepower, beginning of stroke regulation and Q-min.

It is vital that each adjustment screw be properly identified prior to making any adjustment. All screw adjustments for the system relief must be made with the pumpkit in the neutral position and adjustments for pressure cutoff must be made with the engine shut off. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO in gear just as you would to pump a job. If you have not already closed the soft switch shutoff valve and the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 54) do so at this time. At the rear panel, select “local” control with the “local/remote” switch and turn the electric stroke limiter knob clockwise to maximum strokes per minute. The main system control block pressure must be set first to properly set the pressure cutoff on both pumps. Begin by backing off the jam nut of the main relief cartridge (Figure 56) with a 9/16 inch wrench. Using a 5/32 inch allen wrench, turn the adjustment screw out (counterclockwise) until you can feel no spring tension on the adjustment screw. Now, turn the screw back in (clockwise) two or three full turns to give you a proper starting point and tighten the jam nut.

Because you turned out the pressure relief cartridge in step 7, the system pressure should read low at this time. If it does not and the gauge spikes to 320 bar or more, disengage the pump immediately. Turn the relief cartridge out (counterclockwise) more. For safety, it is important to adjust the pressure up from below the specified target pressure rather than down from a pressure which exceeds the target. Continue this procedure until the main system pressure gauge reads lower than the specified target. To increase the pressure put the pump in the neutral position and adjust the relief cartridge by turning it in (clockwise). When increasing the pressure, the adjustments should be made in quarter turn increments. If you make adjustments to increase the pressure but the pressure does not come up, you are probably reading the pressure cutoff of the pumps, if so proceed to the next step otherwise skip to step 15.Turn the relief cartridge adjustment screw back out (counterclockwise) until you can no longer see a pressure drop and tighten the jam nut. Stop the truck engine, put the key in your pocket. Go to the pressure cutoff screw on both hydraulic pumps (Figure 55) and back off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Turn the adjustment screws in with a 4mm allen wrench one or two more turns, restart the engine and check the pressure again. Repeat this procedure until the main system relief can be set to the target pressure. When the proper main relief pressure is achieved, pressure cutoff can be set. Shut off the engine, put the key in your pocket and install 0-600 bar gauges with whip hoses to the “M1” gauge ports on the bottom of the two hydraulic pumps (Figure 55).

HOME

SERVICE TRAINING

NOTE! The gauges in the M1 ports will read considerably less than the cutoff pressure of the pump. On a -6 (190/130 pump combination) the 190 will usually read 85 to 90 bar while the 130 reads about 110 bar. They could read the same however, at approximately 110 bar, but the 190 must never read higher than the 130. The actual cutoff pressure will be read on the concrete pump main system pressure gauge near the e-stop manifold. 1. Activate concrete pump forward to pressure out the pump and read the pressure on the two gauges in the “M1” ports. 2. Always stop the truck engine and put the key in your pocket before making any adjustment on the hydraulic pump. If the cutoff on one pump is set higher than the other, that pump will be more dominant. The pressure gauge in the M1 port of the dominant pump will however, read lower than the other. To equalize the two pumps you must either adjust the cutoff screw in (clockwise) to increase the pressure of the pump showing the higher reading or adjust the cutoff screw of the dominant pump showing the lower reading out (counterclockwise) to reduce the pressure. These adjustments must be made until the two gauges in the M1 ports are reading approximately the same. 3. When you have achieved the same pressure on the M1 port gauges, you can begin to adjust the pressure cutoff screws in or out simultaneously until you achieve the desired pressure setting of 350 bar (again, confirm the pressure specification with the hydraulic schematic). After pressure cutoff is set, return the pump to neutral, bring engine RPM to idle, open the soft switch quarter turn valve, and either proceed to other pressure settings or take the transmission and PTO out of gear and shut off the truck.

Remove the pressure gauge from the outrigger hand valve and replace the cap nut on the gauge port. • Set the water pump/outrigger/agitator pressures - You will need an assistant to perform this procedure. The location of all the components needed for this procedure are shown in (Figure 57). This hydraulic circuit has a maximum pressure of 210 bar (3045 PSI), limited by the relief valve on the water pump handvalve. To set the water pump/outrigger/agitator hydraulic circuit pressures, perform the following steps: 1. Stop the unit, and put the key in your pocket.

2. Install the whip hose of a 0–400 or 0–600 bar gauge on to the gauge port located on the waterpump handvalve. The location of the water pump hand valve if shown in Figure 57. Make sure the whip hose connection is tight. 3. To check or set the highest pressure of this circuit, you must first raise the pressure of the lower two relief valves. Turn the body of the relief valves in (clockwise) one and one half turns on the agitator hand valve and the passenger side outrigger hand valve. (The location of the water pump and the agitator hand valve are shown in Figure 57.) This will increase the circuit pressure over the 210 bars needed to set the water pump relief valve. 4. Start the unit engine and set the transmission and PTO as you would to pump concrete. 5. Locate the relief valve on the water pump hand valve. It will be on the bottom, passenger side, of the water pump handvalve. 6. Be sure that all personnel are clear. 7. Bring the engine to full RPM. 8. Push the outrigger enable push button, located next to the outrigger control lever. Hold the outrigger control lever in the retract position to cause the outrigger to bottom out in the retract position. This will send the oil against the high-pressure plug. The oil will return to the tank over the relief valve in the water pump hand valve. The pressure at which the valve relieves can be seen on the pressure gauge attached to the water pump hand valve. It should read 210 bar.

NOTE! You cannot use the extend position for this adjustment because extend position has a non-adjustable, secondary relief functions built into the valve. 9. To adjust the pressure, turn the outside body of the water pump pressure relief valve (shown in Figure 80) clockwise to increase, or counterclockwise to decrease until 210 bar is showing the pressure gauge.

Check hydraulic pressures. Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. The specifications for all circuits are shown on the Hydraulic Schematics in the Appendix of this manual.

Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40°C – 60°C). The agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. Do not jam the paddles to force the oil over relief by stopping the movement of the agitator. To preheat the hydraulic oil using the agitator circuit, follow these instructions. 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve and close it (Figure 98). The general location of the agitator shutoff valve is shown in Figure 84.

NOTE! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, order one, using part #10004680 (valve), and #30303432 (tube). Contact the Schwing Service Department for installation instructions. If you can’t wait for a shutoff valve, you will need to remove one of the hoses from the agitator motor and plug the hose and open fitting with approved hydraulic dead plugs. Do not substitute other plugs, such as a steel bearing inside a cap fitting. 2. Position the agitator lever in the forward or reverse position (Figure 98). The agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. 3. At idle speed (about 600 RPM), about 4.5 horsepower is being converted to heat. Shut off the concrete pump when the temperature gauge on the operator’s panel shows 50°C. 4. Open the agitator shutoff valve or remove plug and reconnect hose to agitator motor. The general location of the components used to check or set hydraulic pressures in shown in Figure 84.

To check or set concrete pump circuit pressures, perform the following steps. 1. Wear safety glasses when setting pressures. 2. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are installed on the waterbox. Schwing does not recommend using the remote control box when setting the main relief pressure. 3. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO and transmission into gear, just as you would to pump a job. 4. Locate and close the concrete pump shutoff valve (quarter-turn valve), and the soft switch shutoff valve (quarter-turn valve) (Figure 86). 5. Put the operator’s panel “remote / local” switch into the “local” position. 6. Using the switch on the operator’s panel, rev the truck engine up to full RPM. 7. Put the operator’s panel “forward / neutral / reverse” switch into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke only once, then the rock cylinder will retract. The oil leaving the hydraulic pumps will be forced over the main relief valve. This procedure is called high-pressuring the concrete pump.

12. High-pressure the concrete pump again. Read the pressure on the control block pressure gauge. If more adjustment is needed, return the concrete pump switch to “neutral,” then repeat Steps (5) through (8) until the pressure is correct.

NOTE! If you cannot adjust the pressure up to specification, you have a problem. In this case, unscrew the adjustment knob several turns so that your pressure is not too high when you find the problem. Contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 4290999 for advice on how to continue. 13. If you will not be setting the soft switch pressure, open the shutoff valves. The unit will not stroke with closed shutoff valves.

Setting the soft switch circuit relief pressure To check or adjust the soft switch pressure setting, perform the following steps. 1. Open the soft switch shutoff valve. The rest of the unit should still be set up as if you were going to check or set concrete pump pressure. 2. High-pressure the concrete pump. The control block pressure gauge should read 100-bar (1450 PSI) instead of 300 bar. If adjustment is needed, loosen the 2.5-mm allen screw on the face of the soft switch relief valve cartridge (Figure 86). Using a screwdriver, adjust the pressure up or down as needed, and lock into place with the 2.5-mm allen screw. Recheck. Use a screwdriver, if necessary, to prevent the cartridge from turning while tightening the allen screw. Be sure to open the concrete pump shutoff valve when you are finished. The unit will not stroke with this valve close

Setting accumulator E-Stop manifold pressure (original production) The accumulator E-Stop manifold pressure circuit is set to a maximum of 260-bar (3771 PSI) by its relief valve on the emergency stop manifold. To check or adjust this setting, you must first raise the pressure of the accumulator unloading valves to 260-barr or higher.

You cannot use the outrigger extend position for this adjustment because extend has nonadjustable secondary relief functions built into the valve. The pressure on the pressure gauge should read 300-bar. If adjustment is needed, turn the outside body of the relief valve that is located at the bottom of the boom/outrigger hand valve. Turn in to raise pressure, turn out to lower pressure. Activate the enable pushbutton and the hand valve and read the pressure on the gauge again. Repeat steps (7) and (8) until the gauge reads 300-bar. When the pressure is 300-bar, release the enable pushbutton and the outrigger hand valve. Remove the whip gauge from the boom/outrigger hand valve, and replace the cap on the gauge port.

Setting the outrigger pressure The outrigger circuit is set to a maximum of 280-bar (4060 PSI) by the relief valve located on the drivers side outrigger hand valve assembly (Figure 93). The valve routes the oil to the two outrigger hand valve banks, one on each side of the unit. A relief valve inside the drivers side bank limits the entire outrigger circuit to 280-bar.

Figure 95 Boom control relief valve 4. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 in a retract position. You can pressure out a cylinder by retracting a fully retracted cylinder or extending a fully extended cylinder. The oil will have nowhere to go but over the relief valve. 5. Have your assistant read the pressure on the gauge at the boom hand valve. It should read 280-bar. If no adjustment is needed, skip to Step 8. 6. To adjust the boom pressure, locate the relief valve on the back of the boom control block (Figure 95). 7. If adjustment is needed, turn the outside body of the relief valve that is located at the back of the boom hand valve. Turn in to raise pressure, turn out to lower pressure. 8. When the pressure is 280-bar, release the boom hand valve. 9. Remove the whip hose and gauge from the boom hand valve, and replace the cap on the gauge port.

Set boom section #1 down pressure Because gravity wants to pull your boom down, high pressure is not needed to bring section #1 down. Allowing high pressure to be available leaves open the possibility of an inattentive operator’s causing damage

to the boom or the A frame when folding into the transport position. To prevent this, there is a secondary relief valve that regulates only the pressure on the #1 retract function. The #1 boom down pressure should be 170-bar (2465 PSI). To check or adjust the down side relief valve: You have to raise the boom and rotate it for this procedure, so you must set the outriggers as you would to pump a job. Release the boom strap. To adjust the valve, you will need a 2.5 mm allen wrench and a standard screwdriver. 1. Connect the whip hose of a 0-400 or 0–600-bar gauge into the gauge port shown in Figure 96.

Figure 96 Section #1 down relief valve

NOTE! For the following procedure, we must bring section #1 all the way down until the cylinder bottoms out. The cylinder does not bottom out if you set the folded boom into the A-frame (travel position). Position the boom so this can be done without hitting the truck, electrical wires, or any other obstacles. 2. Unfold section #2 from section #1 until it is straight. 3. Bring section #1 down until the cylinder is completely bottomed out. Activate the #1 down (retract) hand valve. The boom will not be able to move because the cylinder is already bottomed out. Read the pressure on the gauge that you just installed. It should read 170-bar. If no adjustment is necessary, skip to Step 7. 4. If adjustment is needed, loosen the set screw with the 2.5 mm allen wrench. While you activate #1 down, adjust the relief cartridge with the

screwdriver until the pressure reads just under 170bar. Retightening the set screw will raise the pressure slightly. (If it becomes a problem, hold the cartridge adjustment with the screwdriver while you tighten the set screw.) Recheck the pressure, and readjust if needed. 5. When the pressure is set at 170-bar, remove the whip hose gauge and replace the cap on the gauge port. 6. The boom pressure setting sequence is complete. If you are finished with the boom, slew it back into the transport position, and lower #1 into the Aframe cradle. Reattach the boom strap.

Setting water pump pressure The agitator/water pump-compressor circuit has a maximum pressure of 200-bar (2900 PSI), limited by the relief valve located in the water pump-compressor hand valve. There is a gauge port for checking or setting the pressure in this circuit. The port is located on the water pump-compressor hand valve.

PRINT

HOME

SERVICE TRAINING

To set the water pump circuit pressure perform the following steps: 1. Stop the unit, and put the key in your pocket. 2. Connect the whip hose of a 0-400 or 0-600 bar gauge to the gauge port on the water pump hand valve. 3. If your unit does not have a compressor, skip to Step 6. 4. If your unit has a compressor remove one of the hoses from the water pump motor and plug the hose and the open fitting with approved hydraulic dead plugs. Do not improvise on these plugs. If you don’t have any, contact Schwing’s Spare Parts Department and order them before continuing with this procedure. You will need: • Qty 2 VS-16S locking plugs, part number 10016803 • Qty 1 GS-16S straight fitting, part number 10008088 • Qty 2 16S capnuts, part number 10001743 • All of these fittings and many, many more extremely useful items are included in the Troubleshooting Kit, part number 30308553. We highly recommend purchase of this kit. It will pay for itself many times over. 5. Be sure that one of the locking plugs and capnuts are tightened on the straight fitting and that the dead plugs are securely tightened to the hose and the open motor fitting. 6. Locate the relief valve on the water pump hand valve. It comes out of the valve body toward the ground, and it is the smaller of the two cartridges that you’ll see. 7. Be sure that any personnel are clear, and restart the engine. 8. Activate the water hand valve by pushing or pulling the handle. This will send the oil against the high pressure plug. The oil will have nowhere to go, so it will return to the tank over the relief valve in the water pump hand valve. The pressure at which it relieves can be seen on the gauge. It should read 200-bar. If no adjustment is needed, skip to Step 10.

Figure 97 Water pump relief valve 9. If adjustment is needed, turn the outside body of the relief valve that is located at the bottom of the water pump/compressor hand valve. Turn in to raise pressure, turn out to lower pressure. 10. When the pressure is set to 200-bar, stop the engine and remove the key. 11. Remove the dead plugs and store in a clean area or in a plastic bag or something similar to keep dirt from entering the fittings. Re-attach the hose to the water pump motor fitting and tighten securely. (Torque is correct if you make one complete revolution after feeling initial resistance increase.) 12. Remove the whip hose and pressure gauge. Replace the gauge port cover.

Setting the agitator pressure The agitator circuit has a maximum pressure of 150bar (2175 PSI), limited by the relief valve located in the agitator hand valve (Figure 98). There is a gauge port for checking or setting the pressure. The port is located on the agitator hand valve. 1. Stop the unit, and put the key in your pocket. 2. Connect the whip hose of 0-400 or a 0–600-bar gauge to the gauge port on the agitator hand valve. 3. If your unit is equipped with a agitator shut off valve, close it (Figure 98). Skip to Step 6.

4. If your unit is not equipped with an agitator shut off valve, remove one of the hoses from the agitator motor and plug the hose and the open fitting with approved hydraulic dead plugs. Do not improvise on these plugs. If you don’t have any, contact the Schwing’s Spare Parts Department and order them before continuing with this procedure. All of these fittings and many, many more extremely useful items are included in the Troubleshooting Kit, part number 30308553. We highly recommend purchase of this kit. It will pay for itself many times over. You will need: 5. - Qty 2 VS-16S locking plugs, part number 10016803 6. - Qty 1 GS-16S straight fitting, part number 10008088 7. - Qty 2 16S capnuts, part number 10001743 8. Be sure that one of the locking plugs and capnuts are tightened on the straight fitting and that the dead plugs are securely tightened to the hose and the open motor fitting. 9. Locate the relief valve on the agitator hand valve. It comes out of the valve body toward the ground, and it is the smaller of the two cartridges that you’ll see. 10. Be sure that any personnel are clear, and restart the engine. 11. Activate the agitator hand valve by pushing or pulling the handle. This will send the oil against the high pressure plug. The oil will have nowhere to go, so it will return to the tank over the relief

valve in the agitator hand valve. The pressure at which it relieves can be seen on the gauge. It should read 150-bar. 12. If adjustment is needed, turn the outside body of the relief valve that is located at the back of the agitator hand valve. Turn in to raise pressure, turn out to lower pressure. 13. When the pressure is set at 150-bar, stop the engine and remove the key. Open the shut off valve or remove the dead plugs and store in a clean area or in a plastic bag or something similar to keep dirt from entering the fittings. Reattach the hose to the agitator motor fitting and tighten securely. (Torque is correct if you make one complete revolution after feeling initial resistance increase.) 14. Remove the whip hose and pressure gauge. Replace the gauge port cover.

Pressure Settings NOTE!

Check hydraulic pressure Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components.

NOTE! Hydraulic pressure settings shown in the following procedures are for a 2023 twin circuit pump kit. However, because different pump kits may be used in this unit, all pressure settings should be verified with the pressure settings shown on the applicable hydraulic schematic. The hydraulic schematics for your pump kit are in the Appendix of this manual. Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when checking or setting pressures. Be sure that the waterbox covers are installed on the waterbox.

If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, order one using part #10004680 (valve) and #30303432 (tube). Contact the Schwing Service Department for installation instructions. If you can’t wait for a shutoff valve, you will need to remove one of the hoses from the agitator motor, and plug the hose and the open fitting with approved hydraulic dead plugs. Do not substitute other plugs, such as a steel bearing, inside a cap fitting. 2. Position the agitator lever in the forward or reverse position. The agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. 3. At idle speed (about 600 RPM), about 4.5 horsepower is being converted to heat. Position the agitator lever to the off (center) position when the temperature gauge on the rear control panel indicates 50°C. 4. Open the agitator shutoff valve or remove the plug, and reconnect the hose to the agitator motor.

We do not recommend using the remote control box for the following procedures.

Closed

Wear safety glasses when setting pressures. Position the “remote/local” switch on the rear control panel to the “local” position. Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40°C – 60°C). The agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. Do not jam the paddles to force the oil over relief by stopping the movement of the agitator. To preheat the hydraulic oil using the agitator circuit, follow these instructions. 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve, and close it (Figure 99). The general location of the agitator shutoff valve is shown in Figure 99.

WARNING

The main relief valve is set to very high pressure (at least 350 bar). Use the controls on the rear control panel when checking the pressure of the main relief valve, so you will be out of the way if a hose or a fitting malfunctions. Refer to Figure 103 for the location of the components used to set the concrete pump pressures. Use the following steps to set the main relief valve pressure: 1. Be sure that the waterbox covers are installed on the waterbox. We do not recommend using the remote control box for the following procedure. 2. Wear safety glasses when setting pressures. 3. Close the concrete pump shutoff and soft switch shutoff valves (Figure 103).

4. Position the “remote / local” switch on the rear control panel to the “local” position. 5. Use the throttle switch on the rear control panel to rev the engine up to full RPM. 6. Use the concrete pump “forward/neutral/reverse” switch to put the pump into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke only once, then the rock cylinder will retract. Oil will have no where to go except over the concrete pump main relief valve. 7. Read the pressure on the concrete pump pressure gauge located on the main control block. It should read 350 bar. Position the concrete pump switch to the off (neutral) position. If no adjustment is needed, skip to Step 11. 8. If adjustment is needed, use a 9/16 inch spanner wrench, loosen the jam nut on the main relief valve adjusting screw (Figure 103). 9. Insert a 5/32 inch allen wrench in the adjustment screw. Turn the screw in to raise pressure or out to lower the pressure. 10. Once the pressure is correct (350 bar) retighten the jam nut. Tightening the nut tends to raise the pressure, so check pressure again after tightening. Verify the correct pressure setting (350 bar). 11. Open the concrete pump shutoff valve and soft switch shutoff valves. The unit will not stroke with these valves closed.

Pressure Settings Setting the outrigger pressure With a seven place hand valve, the boom/outrigger selector valve is inside the boom control block. This valve is activated when the outrigger enable push button is pushed. There is not a separate relief for this circuit, and therefore nothing that must be set. The outrigger circuit is set to a maximum of 280-bar (4060 PSI) by the relief valve located on the passenger side outrigger hand valve assembly (Figure 109). The valve routes the oil to the two outrigger hand valve banks, one on each side of the unit. A relief valve inside the passenger side bank limits the entire outrigger circuit to 280-bar.

NOTE! On some pump units the relief valve may be in a slightly different location (opposite side) than shown in Figure 109.

WARNING Tipping hazard. Never set outrigger pressures with the boom unfolded. Pressure setting procedure requires retraction of an outrigger jacking cylinder.

3. Set the engine RPM to maximum. 4. Push the outrigger enable pushbutton located next to the outrigger handvalve (passenger side). Hold an outrigger hand valve lever in the jacking-retract position. The oil coming from the pump has nowhere to go but over the outrigger relief valve.

If your unit has a load-sensing proportional system, it will have different pressure adjustments than if it is equipped with a black and white boom system. The following instructions are for load-sensing proportional systems. If you have a unit equipped with a black and white boom system, contact Schwing Service Department for the correct instruction pages. In a black and white boom system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain a 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic

pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting Q-min and ∆P.

3. To ensure that the pump is putting out only enough oil needed to maintain ∆P, we need to change the setting of the Q-min adjustment screw. Q-min is

adjusted by a screw on the boom hydraulic pump (Figure 112). Turn the Q-min adjustment screw out (counter clockwise) three full turns. Check that all personnel are clear of the truck, then restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. Pressure should read 20 (±1) bar. Increase the throttle RPM and the ∆P pressure should remain the same. If the pressure fluctuates with a change in engine RPM you are probably still reading Q-min. The Q-min adjustment screw will need to be turned out more. If no adjustment is needed, turn the Q-min adjustment screw in (clockwise) three full turns or what ever amount it was turned out. If adjustment is needed, continue to Step 8.

If the boom does not operate smoothly at 20 bar, you must fine tune the adjustment. 9. Remove the gauge, and adjust ∆P until the boom is responsive and smooth. When done, the gauge (reinstalled) must read between 14 and 25 bar. The electronics in the control system can also affect how the boom operates, so if ∆P adjustment does not seem to help, reset to 20 bar and check the electrical settings. Once electrical settings are verified, you could again refine the boom action with the ∆P adjustment. Caution! Do not operate any functions while setting ∆P. 10. When ∆P has been set remove the 0-100 gauge.

Q-min pressure is checked when the engine is at the maximum specified RPM, but must adjust with the engine stopped. To check or set the Q-min follow these steps: 1. Install a 0-600 bar gauge in the 0-400 bar gauge port of the manual boom handvalves. Take care not to accidently install the gauge in the 0-60 bar port. (Figure 111). 2. Clear all personnel away from the drive lines, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). 3.

If the pressure reads less than 100 bar, return the engine RPM to idle speed and install a 0-100 bar gauge.If the pressure reads more than 100 bar, stop the drive shafts from tuning and turn the Q-min adjustment screw in until the pressure is below 100 bar. 5. Bring the engine RPM to maximum. Q-min pressure should read 40 - 45 bar. 6. If no adjustment is needed, stop the drive lines from turning. Tighten the jam nut on the Q-min adjustment screw. Remove the 0-100 gauge. 7. If adjustment is needed, continue to Step 17. 8. Turn the Q-min screw in to raise the pressure (Figure 112). Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct (40-45 bar), tighten the jam nut on the Q-min adjustment screw. Remove the 0-100 bar gauge.

To check the setting of the valve with the highest pressure, you must first raise the pressure of the lower two: 1. Loosen the jam nut of the high pressure adjustment screw of the ∆P regulator. Turn the screw in twoand-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure on the ∆P regulator above 350 bar. 2. Loosen the jam nut of the adjustment screw on the E-stop manifold redundant relief valve. Turn the screw in one-and-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure setting of the relief valve to above 350 bar. 3. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down by pushing or pulling the control handle. To pressure out a cylinder, retract a fully retracted cylinder or extend a fully extended cylinder. The oil is forced over the relief valve. 4. The tell tale hiss of an open relief valve should be coming from the Apitech control block relief valve now. If it isn’t, raise the setting of the other pressure devices until the hiss originates at the Apitech control block relief valve. Read the pressure on the gauge connected to the 0-400 bar gauge port on the boom hand valve block. It should read 350 bar. If pressure is correct, proceed to Step 5.

NOTE! Although the pressure specification for the Apitech relief valve is 350 bar, you may continue to use the relief valve as long as the cartridge maintains at least 330 bar. If you must replace the valve, proceed to Step 5 before using the concrete pump again, and re-do this entire procedure when you have installed the new valve. If pressure on the Apitech relief valve is below 290 bar, you should not use the concrete pump until the valve is replaced. 5. Screw out the E-Stop manifold redundant relief valve adjustment screw one-and-a-half turns. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, and read the gauge. Pressure should read 320 bar. If it does not, turn the screw in to raise pressure, or out to lower pressure until it is set at 320 bar. If the location of this valve causes you to be near the drive lines, be sure to stop them from turning before accessing the valve. 6. You will need a helper for this step. While pressuring out any boom cylinder except #1 down, have your helper adjust the high pressure screw of

the ∆P regulator out (lowering the pressure) until the gauge reads 290 bar. Release the pressurized function and lock the jam nut. The boom pressures are now set. If you did not get the readings specified after following the instructions, contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for advice on how to continue.

Set the down side relief valve pressure This valve is a secondary relief valve for #1 cylinder retract function (Figure 115). Proper adjustment ensures that the #1 boom and the A-frame won’t be damaged by putting the boom in the cradle. To adjust this valve (requires a 2.5 mm Allen wrench and a standard screwdriver). Set the pressure of the 140 bar down side relief valve using the following steps: 1. Install a 0 - 400 bar or 0 - 600 bar gauge into the 140 bar gauge port (Figure 115). 2. Unfold the #2 section from #1 until it is straight. For the following procedure we must bring #1 all the way down until the cylinder bottoms out. Position the boom so this can be done without hitting the truck or any other obstacle. 3. Bring #1 down until the cylinder is completely bottomed out. The cylinder does NOT bottom out if you are setting the folded boom into the A-frame (travel position). 4. Activate the #1 down (retract) handvalve The boom will not be able to move because the cylinder is already bottomed out. Read the pressure on the gauge that you just installed. It should read 140 bar (2030 PSI). If no adjustment is necessary, skip to Step 6. 5. If adjustment is needed, loosen the set screw of the 140 bar relief valve with the 2.5 mm allen wrench. While you activate #1 down, adjust the relief cartridge with the screwdriver until the pressure reads just under 140 bar. Retighten the set screw. The pressure may raise slightly. Recheck the pressure, and readjust if needed. 6. When the pressure is set at 140 bar with the set screw tight, you can remove the whip hose gauge and replace the cap on the gauge port. 7. The boom pressure setting sequence is complete. If you are done with the boom, slew it back into the transport position, and lower #1 into the cradle and attach the boom transport strap.

All of these fittings and many, many more extremely useful items are included in the Troubleshooting Kit, part number 30308553. We highly recommend purchase of this kit. It will pay for itself many times over. You will need: • Qty 2 VS-16S locking plugs, part number 10016803 • Qty 1 GS-16S straight fitting, part number 10008088 • Qty 2 16S capnuts, part number 10001743 6.

Locate the relief valve on the back of the agitator hand valve. 8. Be sure that all personnel are clear, and restart the engine. 9. Activate the agitator hand valve by pushing or pulling the handle. This will send the oil against the high pressure plug. The oil will have nowhere to go, so it will return to the tank over the relief valve in the agitator hand valve. The pressure at which it relieves can be seen on the gauge. It should read 200-bar. 10. If adjustment is needed, turn the outside body of the relief valve that is located at the back of the agitator hand valve. Turn in to raise pressure or turn out to lower pressure. 11. When the pressure is set at 200-bar, stop the engine and remove the key. Open the shutoff valve or remove the dead plugs and store them in a clean area or in a plastic bag or something similar in order to keep dirt from entering the fittings. Reattach the hose to the agitator motor fitting and tighten securely. (Torque is correct if you make one complete revolution after feeling initial resistance increase.) 12. Remove the whip hose and pressure gauge. Replace the gauge port cover.

31 EZ Check all hydraulic pressures Changes in pressure can indicate trouble in one or more components and will serve as early warning indicators if you check them on a regular basis. The specifications for each circuit are shown on the hydraulic schematics found in the Appendix section of this manual. The hydraulic schematics are the only documents in this manual that have been updated specifically for your unit, by the serial number, so in each of the following procedures you will be told to refer to the schematic for the pressure required.

Preheat the hydraulic oil Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (50° to 60° C). In the past we could pressure out a function in the boom or outrigger system to create heat, but today, load sensing systems no longer allow maximum oil flow to be forced over relief. Because of this, the agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. To heat the oil to operating temperature: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 120), and close it. The quarter turn shutoff valve has a grooved line on the shaft or pivot point of the

Pressure Settings

handle as well as on the handle itself, which will indicate the open or closed configuration of the valve (Figure 120). If the handle is removed from the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 120) or the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 122) and replaced in a different configuration, the grooves in the handle may no longer indicate the proper open/ closed orientation of the valve. The grooves in the shaft give the only true indication of the valve’s position.

NOTE! If your unit is an early production model and does not have an agitator shutoff valve, order one from the Schwing Spare Parts Department, using part number 10004680 (valve) and number 30303432 (tube). Contact the Service Department for installation instructions. 2. Activate the agitator. With the valve closed, the agitator will not be able to turn and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. At an idle (about 600 RPM) you will be converting 4.5 horsepower to heat. 3. When the oil temperature gauge shows 50˚ C, open the shutoff valve.

000438.eps

WARNING

Because the Hi-flow pumpkits have the ability to create high pressure on the concrete, the pressure settings have to be tailored specifically for each model. This means that we cannot simply list a pressure specification for all units. The correct pressure specifications for your unit are shown on the hydraulic schematic in the Appendix, section of this manual.

NOTE! Do not use the remote control box for the following pressure setting procedure. To check or set the concrete pump pressure adjustments, follow these steps:

1. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are installed on the waterbox. 2. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO and transmission into gear just as you would to pump a job. 3. Locate and close the concrete pump shutoff valve and the soft switch shutoff valve (Figure 122). (These valves are also known as quarter turn valves). 4. If your concrete pump pressure gauge is not already plumbed into the gauge port (Figure 218), install a 0 - 400 or 0 - 600 bar gauge in the gauge port. 5. The “remote / local” switch located on the rear control panel must be in the “local” position. 6. Be sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Reset the E-stop circuit. 7. Using the throttle switch on the rear control panel, bring the truck engine up to full RPM. The main relief valve (Figure 123) is set to very high pressure (at least 350 bar). Use the rear control panel switch when checking the pressure of the main relief valve, so you will be out of the way if a hose or fitting blows.

8. Place the concrete pump “forward / neutral / reverse” switch on the rear control panel into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke no more than once, then the rock cylinder will retract. Oil leaving the hydraulic pumps will be blocked in the brain. This is called high-pressuring the concrete pump. 9. Read the pressure on the gauge. The target pressure for the concrete pump circuit main relief valve is shown on the hydraulic schematic in the Appendix section of this manual. Return the pump control to “neutral” whether the pressure needs adjustment or not. If no adjustment is needed, skip to step 5. If adjustment is needed, proceed to next paragraph.

Setting the main relief valve The main relief valve is the primary pressure control device on units equipped with Rexroth A7VO hydraulic pumps. If the main relief valve needs adjustment, proceed as follows: 1. Wear safety glasses when checking or adjusting pressures. 2. Using a 9/16” spanner wrench, loosen the jam nut on the main relief valve adjusting screw (Figure 123). Gauge port

To check or adjust the soft switch pressure setting, proceed as follows:

1. Open the soft switch shutoff valve (Figure 123). The rest of the unit should still be set up as though you were going to check concrete pump pressure. 2. High pressure the concrete pump. The pressure gauge should read 60 or 80 bar (check your schematic). If adjustment is needed, proceed to step (3). If no adjustment is needed, skip to step (). 3. Loosen the jam nut on the soft switch relief valve (Figure 103) with a 9/16” spanner wrench. Adjust the pressure up or down, as needed, using a 5/32” Allen wrench. When the correct pressure is achieved, tighten the jam nut. 4. Be sure to open the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 123) on the side of the brain when you are finished. The unit cannot stroke with this valve closed.

Setting pressures on load-sensing booms If your unit has a load-sensing proportional system, it will have different pressure adjustments than if it is equipped with a black and white boom system. The following instructions are for seven place, load-sensing proportional systems. If you have a unit equipped with a black and white boom system, contact Schwing Service for the correct instruction pages.

Preheat the oil When you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40° - 60° C). Instructions for heating the hydraulic oil are found on page 495.

About proportional boom systems In a black and white boom system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain a 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting Q-min and ∆P. Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. General locations of the components for the following procedures are shown in Figure 125. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when checking or setting pressures.

Setting ∆P

1. Stop the truck engine and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the truck windshield. 2. Install a 0-40 or 0-60 bar gauge in the 0-400 bar gauge port (Figure 126) of the manual boom handvalves. Take care not to accidently install the gauge in the 0-60 bar port.

NOTE! Do not adjust ∆P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from there. It was fine tuned at the factory and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary. If it becomes necessary, do not adjust Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the Q-min screw is adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drive lines stop turning. To check or set ∆P, follow these steps:

Figure 127 Location of the Q-min adjustment screw on A11VO (left) and A7VO (right) 3. To be sure that the pump is putting out only enough oil to maintain ∆P, we need to change the setting of the Q-min screw. Q-min is adjusted by a screw on the boom hydraulic pump (Figure 127). Unscrew the Q-min screw three full turns. Make sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Check that all personnel are clear of the truck; then restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. Pressure can be read on the 0 - 40 bar gauge that you installed. Pressure should read 20 bar. If no adjustment is needed, simply reset the Q-min screw as described on page 357. If adjustment is needed, continue to step (4). 4. Delta P is adjusted on the bottom (smaller) screw of the pressure regulator shown in Figure 225 below. If your unit has an A7VO boom pump, you can do so by loosening the jam nut (10mm open

end wrench) and adjusting the screw (3mm Allen wrench) clockwise to increase pressure or counter clockwise to decrease it. 5. The delta P adjustment screw on the A11VO boom pump, also shown in Figure 225 below, requires a 13mm open end wrench and a 4mm allen wrench.

NOTE! If the boom is not smooth at 20 bar, you must fine tune the adjustment. In that case, REMOVE THE GAUGE and adjust ∆P until the boom is responsive and smooth. The gauge (reinstalled) must now read between 14 and 25 bar. The electronics in the control system can also affect how the boom operates, so if ∆P adjustment does not seem to help, reset to 20 bar and check the electrical settings. Once electrical settings are verified, you could again refine the boom action with the ∆P adjustment.

Setting Q-min Check Q-min pressure when the engine is at the maximum specified RPM, but the engine must be stopped to adjust the screw. 1. If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as the first step of ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position (Figure 127). 2. Remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge from the 0 - 400 bar gauge port, and install the 0 - 600 bar gauge in its place. 3. Clear all personnel away from the drive lines, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). 4. Read the pressure on the 0 - 600 bar gauge. Pressure should be at 40 - 45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, stop the drive lines from turning, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, and proceed to Setting boom pressures. If adjustment is needed, continue to the next step. 5. Turn the Q-min screw in to raise the pressure (Figure 127). Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning

each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures.

Setting boom pressures (Load sensing proportional booms) Now that ∆P and Q-min are set, you can check or set the boom valve pressures. There are several devices on the boom circuit which control boom pressure (Figure 226):

1. Pressure regulator (the high-pressure adjustment screw on the ∆P regulator valve on units with A7VO boom pumps), set at 300 bar. 2. Pressure cut-off on units with A11VO pumps. 3. The boom control block relief valve, pre-set at 350 bar.

NOTE! This relief valve is nonadjustable. If pressure is not maintained with the specification limits, the valve must be replaced.

Pressure Settings Raise the pressure of the lowest circuit

Setting the outrigger pressures

To check the setting of the valve with the highest pressure, you must first raise the pressure of the lower: 1. Loosen the jam nut of the high pressure adjustment screw (Figure 129) of the ∆P regulator. Turn the screw in two-and-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure on the regulator above 350 bar. 2. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down by activating the control handle. To pressure out a cylinder, retract a fully retracted cylinder or extend a fully extended cylinder. The oil is then forced over the relief valve. The telltale hiss of an open relief valve should be coming from the Apitech control block relief valve now. If it isn’t, raise the setting of the delta P regulator a little more until the hiss originates at the Apitech control block relief valve. Read the pressure on the gauge. It should read 350 bar. If pressure is correct, proceed to the next step.

After the boom pressures are set, you can set the outrigger pressure.

Although the pressure specification for the Apitech relief valve is 350 bar, you may continue to use the relief valve as long as the cartridge maintains at least 330 bar. If you must replace the valve and don’t have one on hand, proceed to the next step before using the machine again. Redo this entire procedure when you have installed the new valve. If pressure on the Apitech relief valve is below 290 bar, you should not use the machine until the valve is replaced. 3. You will need a helper for this step. While pressuring out any boom cylinder except #1 down, have your helper adjust the high pressure screw of the ∆P regulator out (lowering the pressure) until the gauge reads 300 bar. Release the pressurized function, and lock the jam nut. The boom pressures are now set. If you did not get the readings specified after following the instructions, contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for advice on how to continue.

To set the 280 bar relief valve for the outrigger circuit:

WARNING Wear safety glasses any time you check or set pressures. Oil expulsion hazard!

000438.eps

NOTE!

The boom, outriggers, water pump, and compressor circuits have all been put together in the boom valve manifold. When the outrigger selector push button is pushed, the boom/outrigger control handle is activated (Figure 129), which routes oil to the two outrigger hand valve banks (one on each side of the unit). A relief valve inside the passenger side bank limits the entire outrigger circuit to 280 bar (4060 PSI) instead of the 300 bar (4350 PSI) of the boom relief valve.

1. Plug the whip hose of a 0-400 or 0-600 bar gauge (Figure 227) into the gauge port. 2. If not already done, start the truck engine and set the transmission and PTO as you would for a pumping job. 3. Locate the 280 bar relief valve (Figure 130) on the back of the outrigger valve. 4. Set the engine RPM to maximum. 5. Select “outrigger” with the outrigger push button. This will route oil to the outrigger handvalves. 6. With the outriggers folded into the travel position, activate the passenger side hand valve “jacking cylinder retract” for either the front or rear outrigger.

NOTE! You will get an incorrect reading if you select any other outrigger function. The handles are spring loaded and will return to neutral as soon as you let go.

Pressure is limited by the main relief valve which is located on the forward (towards the truck cab) end of the main control block. To check or set the main relief pressure: (See Figure 138).

Because of the new load sensing and pressure cutoff regulated hydraulic systems, you can’t use the concrete pump or boom circuit to preheat the hydraulic oil (they stop putting out oil if you try). To heat the oil to operating temperature: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve and close it. Note! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, you can order one using part number 10004680 (valve) and part number 30303432 (tube). Install as shown in figure 231 on page 6-362.

5. Put the rear control panel switch “remote / local” into the “local” position. 6. Using the switch on the rear control panel, rev the truck engine up to full RPM. 7. Using the concrete pump “forward / neutral / reverse” switch on the rear control panel, put the concrete pump into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke no more than once, then the rock cylinder will retract. Oil will have nowhere to go except over the main relief valve. 8. Read the pressure on the gauge, as shown. It should read 300 bar. Return the pump to “neutral” whether in needs adjustment or not. If no adjustment is needed, skip to step 14. 9. Loosen the jam nut on the relief valve adjusting screw (requires a 13 mm spanner wrench). 10. Turn the knob on the relief valve to adjust the pressure. Screw the handle in to raise pressure, out to lower the pressure. 11. Retighten the jam nut. (This step is necessary because tightening the nut tends to raise the pressure. If it becomes a problem, hold the knob while tightening the jam nut). 12. Put the concrete pump into the “forward” position again. The machine will not stroke this time, but will again develop maximum pressure. Read the pressure on the gauge. If more adjustment is needed, return the pump to “neutral”, then repeat steps 8. thru 12. until the pressure is at 300 bar. NOTE! If you cannot adjust the pressure up to 300

bar, there is a hydraulic problem. In this case, unscrew the adjustment knob by several turns so that your pressure isn’t too high once the problem is found. Contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for advice on how to continue. 13. Return the pump to the “neutral” position. 14. Open the shutoff valve. 15. Return the RPM of the truck to an idle, take the transmission and PTO out of gear, and shut off the truck, or go on to the other pressure settings, as required.

Setting boom pressures (7 place proportional circuit) If your unit has a loadsensing proportional system, it will have different pressure adjustments than if it is equipped with a black and white boom system. The following instructions are for load-sensing proportional systems. If your unit is equipped with a black and white boom system, these instructions will be wrong. Contact Schwing America’s Service Department to obtain correct instructions. Preheat the oil

NOTE! Whenever you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40° - 60° C). Instructions for heating he hydraulic oil are found in section on page 6-285.

called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting Q-min and ∆P. See figure 142.

In a black and white boom system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain a 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is Manual boom handvalves

PRINT

E-Stop manifold

Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when checking or setting pressures.

Setting ∆P Note! Do not adjust ∆P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from there. It was fine tuned at the factory, and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary. You must not adjust Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. To check or set ∆P, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the truck windshield. 2. Install a 0 - 40 or 0 - 60 bar gauge in the 0 - 400 bar gauge port of the manual boom handvalves. Take care not to accidently install the gauge in the 0 - 60 bar port. (See Figure 141.) 3. To be sure that the pump is putting out only enough oil needed to maintain ∆P, we need to change the setting of the Q-min screw. Q-min is adjusted by a screw on the boom hydraulic pump (see Figure 142). Unscrew the Q-min screw three full turns.

Check that all personnel are clear of the truck, then restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. CAUTION! If you activate any boom or outrigger functions, you will damage the 0 - 40 bar gauge. Make sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Pressure can be read on the 0 40 bar gauge that you installed. Pressure should read 20 bar. If no adjustment is needed, simply reset the Q-min screw as described in . If adjustment is needed, continue to step (2.). 4. Delta P is adjusted by the ∆P screw on the ∆P regulator (see Figure 143). Loosen the jam nut and adjust the screw inward to increase pressure, or outward to decrease pressure until it is set at 20 bar (±1). Contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 if you are unable to adjust the pressure to spec. NOTE! If the boom is not smooth at 20 bar, you must fine tune the adjustment. In that case, REMOVE THE GAUGE, and adjust ∆P until the boom is responsive and smooth. When done, the gauge (reinstalled) must read between 14 and 25 bar. The electronics in the control system can also affect how the boom operates, so if ∆P adjustment does not seem to help, reset to 20 bar and check the electrical settings. Once electrical settings are verified, you could again refine the boom action with the ∆P adjustment.

Setting Q-min You must check Q-min pressure when the engine is at the maximum specified RPM, but you must adjust it with the engine stopped. 1. If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as the first step of ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position (see Figure 142).Remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge from the 0 - 400 bar gauge port, and install the 0 - 600 bar gauge in its place.

2. Clear all personnel away from the drive lines, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). 3. Read the pressure on the 0 - 600 gauge. Pressure should be at 40 - 45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, stop the drivelines from turning, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, then continue to

paragraph to check the rest of the boom and outrigger pressures. If adjustment is needed, continue to step (5.). 4. Turn the Q-min screw in to raise the pressure (Figure 142). Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures.

Setting boom pressures (Load sensing proportional booms.) Now that ∆P and Q-min are set, you can check or set the boom valve pressures. There are three pressure settings on the boom circuit: (see Figure 144) 1. Pressure regulator (the high-pressure adjustment screw on the ∆P regulator valve), set at 300 bar. 2. The redundant relief valve located in the emergency stop manifold, set at 330 bar. 3. The boom control block relief valve, set at 350 bar. NOTE! This relief valve is nonadjustable. If pressure is not maintained with the specification limits, the valve must be replaced. • To check the setting of the valve with the highest pressure, you must first raise the pressure of the lower two: 4. Loosen the jam nut of the high pressure adjustment screw of the ∆P regulator. Turn the screw in twoand-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure on the regulator above 350 bar.

Figure 143 The ∆P regulator valve 5. Loosen the jam nut of the adjustment screw of the redundant relief valve in the emergency stop manifold. Turn the screw in one-and-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure setting of the relief valve to above 350 bar. 6. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down by pushing or pulling the control handle. To pressure out a cylinder, retract a fully retracted cylinder or extend a fully extended cylinder. The oil is forced over the relief valve. The telltale hiss of an open relief valve should be coming from the Apitech control block relief valve now. If it isn’t, raise the setting of the other pressure devices until the hiss originates at the Apitech control block relief valve. Read the pressure on the gauge. It should read 350 bar. If pressure is correct, proceed to step (4.). NOTE! Although the pressure specification for the Apitech relief valve is 350 bar, you may continue to use the relief valve as long as the cartridge maintains at least 330 bar. If you must replace the valve, proceed to step (4.) before using the machine again, and redo this entire procedure when you have installed the new valve. If pressure on the Apitech relief valve is below 290 bar, you should not use the machine until the valve is replaced. 7. Screw out the e-stop manifold redundant relief valve adjustment screw one-and-a-half turns. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, and read the gauge. Pressure should read 330 bar. If it does not, turn the screw in to raise pressure, or out to lower pressure until it is set at 330 bar. If the location of this valve causes you to be near the drivelines, be sure to stop them from turning before accessing the valve.

8. You will need a helper for this step. While pressuring out any boom cylinder except #1 down, have your helper adjust the high pressure screw of the ∆P regulator out (lowering the pressure) until the gauge reads 300 bar. Release the pressurized function and lock the jam nut. The boom pressures are now set. If you did not get the readings specified after following the instructions it is possible that there is a problem with the emergency stop manifold (see Figure 145). You can plumb the malfunctioning circuit out of the system to test it. Use only approved hydraulic dead plugs to plug the inlet hose to the malfunctioning circuit. If pressure can now be achieved, the e-stop manifold is the source of the problem. If pressure still cannot be achieved, the problem is elsewhere.

2. Unfold the #2 section from #1 until it is straight. For the following procedure we must bring #1 all the way down until the cylinder bottoms out. Position the boom so this can be done without hitting the truck or any other obstacle.

HOME

Pressure Settings 3. Bring #1 down until the cylinder is completely bottomed out. The cylinder does NOT bottom out if you are setting the folded boom into the A-frame (travel position). 4. Activate the #1 down (retract) handvalve The boom will not be able to move because the cylinder is already bottomed out. Read the pressure on the gauge that you just installed. It should read 140 bar. If no adjustment is necessary, skip to step 6. 5. If adjustment is needed, loosen the set screw of the 140 bar relief valve with the 2.5 mm Allen wrench. While you activate #1 down, adjust the relief

cartridge with the screwdriver until the pressure reads just under 140 bar. Retightening the set screw will raise the pressure slightly. Recheck the pressure, and readjust if needed. 6. When the pressure is set at 140 bar with the set screw tight, you can remove the whip hose gauge and replace the cap on the gauge port. 7. The boom pressure setting sequence is complete. If you are done with the boom, slew it back into the transport position, and lower #1 into the cradle. Reattach the boom strap.

Setting the outrigger pressures (7 place boom valve systems)

•

After the boom pressures are set, you can set the outrigger pressure. • In this system, the boom, outriggers, water pump, and compressor circuits have all been put together in the boom valve manifold. (See Figure 227). When the outrigger selector push-button is activated, the outrigger valve routes oil to the two outrigger handvalve banks, one on each side of the unit. A relief valve inside the passenger side bank limits the entire outrigger circuit to 280 bar (4060 PSI) instead of the 300 bar (4350 PSI) of the boom relief valve.

To set the 280 bar relief valve for the outrigger circuit: (See Figure 227 and Figure 228). Wear safety glasses whenever you check or set pressures. Plug the whip hose of a 0 - 400 or 0 - 600 bar gauge into the gauge port. Location is shown in figure 227. If not already done, start the truck engine and set the transmission and PTO as you would for a pumping job.

Setting 15 bar pretension • To check or set pretension, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine. Plug the 0 - 40 bar gauge into the pretension check port of the Apitech handvalve (Figure 150). 2. Start the truck engine, but leave it at an idle. (Pretension adjustment is made at an idle to establish the minimum pressure setting. As RPM is increased, pressure will rise. Damage to the 0 - 40 bar gauge is possible if RPM is raised while the gauge is connected.)

3. Read the pressure on the gauge. If it reads 15 bar ± 1 bar, the pressure is set correctly. If adjustment is needed, proceed to step (4.). 4. Loosen the jam nut on the pretension valve. Turn the screw in to raise pressure, and out to lower pressure. When the pressure is correct, retighten the jam nut. 5. Stop the engine, and remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge. Pretension setting is complete.

To set the agitator circuit pressure: The agitator relief valve is located in the agitator forward / neutral / reverse handvalve, at the rear of the unit on the driver’s side. The relief valve limits the pressure in the agitator circuit to 200 bar (2900 PSI). (See Figure 230). There is a gauge port for checking or setting the pressure in this circuit. The port is located on the agitator handvalve. To check or set the agitator pressure, follow these steps: 1. Remove the aluminum diamond plate cover from over the agitator handvalve.

Check hydraulic pressures •

Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40° to 60° C).The specifications for all circuit pressures are found on the hydraulic schematics in the appendix section of this manual.

Preheat the hydraulic oil

•

Because of the new load sensing and pressure cutoff regulated hydraulic systems, you can’t use the concrete pump or boom circuit to preheat the hydraulic oil (they stop putting out oil if you try). To heat the oil to operating temperature:

1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve and close it. There is a picture of the location on page 6-362. Note! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, you can order one using part number 10004680 (valve) and part number 30303432 (tube). Contact Schwing’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for installation instructions. 2. Turn on the agitator. The agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. 3. At an idle (approx. 600 rpm), about 5.4 horsepower is being converted to heat. Shut off the agitator when the temperature gauge on the rear control panel shows 40° C. Don’t forget to open the shutoff valve when the procedure is finished.

Check the concrete pump pressure (9001200 - MPS pumpkits) Schwing concrete pumps with MPS pumpkits are designed to be operated at a maximum pressure of 320 bar (4640 PSI). Pressure is limited by the main relief valve which is located on the forward end (towards the

HOME

Pressure Settings truck cab) of the main control block. (See Figure 154). To check or set the concrete pump relief pressure, follow these steps: 1. Wear safety glasses when checking or setting pressures. 2. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are installed on the waterbox. Use of the remote control box for the following pressure setting procedure is NOT recommended. 3. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO and transmission into gear just as you would to pump a job. 4. See Figure 139. Close the concrete pump shutoff valve, and the soft switch shutoff valve. (These valves are also known as quarter turn valves). 5. Put the rear control panel switch “remote / local” into the “local” position. 6. Be sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Reset the e-stop circuit. 7. Using the switch on the rear control panel, rev the truck engine up to full RPM. 8. Put the concrete pump “forward / neutral / reverse” switch on the rear control panel into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke no more than once, then the rock cylinder will retract. Oil leaving the hydraulic pumps will be forced over the main relief valve. This is called high-pressuring the concrete pump.

9. Read the pressure on the gauge, located as shown in figure 154. It should read 320 bar. Return the pump control to “neutral” whether the pressure needs adjustment or not. If no adjustment is needed, skip to step 5. 10. Using a 13 mm spanner wrench, loosen the jam nut on the relief valve adjusting screw (Figure 154). 11. Turn the knob on the relief valve to adjust the pressure. Screw the handle in to raise pressure, out to lower the pressure. 12. Retighten the jam nut. Tightening the nut tends to raise the pressure. If the pressure rise becomes a problem, hold the knob while tightening the jam nut. 13. High pressure the concrete pump again. Read the pressure on the gauge. If more adjustment is needed, return the pump control to “neutral”, then repeat steps (8.) thru (13.) until the pressure is correct. NOTE! If you cannot adjust the pressure up to specification, there is a hydraulic problem. In this case, unscrew the adjustment knob several turns so your pressure isn’t too high when you find the problem. Contact Schwing America’s Service Department for advice on how to continue. 14. If you will not be setting the soft switch pressure, open the shutoff valves. The unit will not stroke with closed shutoff valves.

Setting the soft switch circuit relief pressure •

To check or adjust the soft switch pressure setting, proceed as follows: 1. Open the soft switch shutoff valve, as shown in figures 155 and 156. The rest of the unit should still be set up as though you were going to check concrete pump pressure. 2. High pressure the concrete pump. The pressure gauge should read 80 bar (1160 PSI) instead of 320 bar. If adjustment is needed, loosen the set screw on the face of the relief valve cartridge with a 2.5 mm allen wrench. Using a screwdriver, adjust the pressure up or down as needed, and lock the set screw into place with the 2.5 mm allen wrench. Recheck. Use a screwdriver, if necessary, to prevent the cartridge from turning while tightening the allen screw.

3. Be sure to open the concrete pump shutoff valve on the side of the brain (shown in Figure 155) when you are finished. The unit cannot stroke with this valve closed.

Setting the boom pressures (7 place black and white circuit) If your unit has a black and white boom system, it will have different pressure adjustments than if it is equipped with a loadsensing proportional system. The following instructions are for black and white systems. If you have a proportional unit, skip to page 6- 355. To set the 300 bar boom circuit relief valve proceed as follows: (See Figure 157) 1. We have to raise the boom and rotate it 180° for this procedure, so you must set the outriggers as you would to pump a job. Be sure that you set up well away from electrical wires and other obstructions.

Read the pressure on the whip gauge that you installed in step 4, above. It should read 300 bar. If no adjustment is necessary, skip to step 7.

6. If adjustment is needed, put your wrench on the 300 bar relief valve at the back of the boom control valve bank. While you are holding the function in retract mode, adjust the cartridge in or out until the pressure reads 300 bar. 7. If you cannot achieve 300 bar, it is possible that there is a problem with the emergency stop manifold (see Figure 158). You can plumb the malfunctioning circuit out of the system to test it. Use only approved hydraulic dead plugs to plug the inlet hose to the malfunctioning circuit. If pressure can now be achieved, the e-stop manifold is the source of the problem. Contact Schwing America’s Service Department for advice on repair of the e-stop manifold. Repair the e-stop manifold before using the unit again. Remember, the emergency stop switches do nothing if the e-stop manifold is plumbed out of the system. Remove the whip hose from the 300 bar gauge port. Before folding up the boom, proceed to the instructions for setting the 140 bar down side relief valve.

(7 place proportional circuit) If your unit has a loadsensing proportional system, it will have different pressure adjustments than if it is equipped with a black and white boom system. The following instructions are for load-sensing proportional systems.

Note! Whenever you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40° - 60° C). Instructions for heating the hydraulic oil are found in section on page 351. About proportional boom systems

In a black and white boom system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions

Pressure Settings even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting Q-min and ∆P. See figure 161.

with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain a 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, Manual boom handvalves

Setting ∆P Note! Do not adjust ∆P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from there. It was fine tuned at the factory, and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary. • You must not adjust Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. To check or set ∆P, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the truck windshield.

If no adjustment is needed, simply reset the Q-min screw as described in . If adjustment is needed, continue to step (2.).

3. To be sure that the pump is putting out only enough oil needed to maintain ∆P, we need to change the setting of the Q-min screw. Q-min is adjusted by a screw on the boom hydraulic pump (see Figure 161). Unscrew the Q-min screw three full turns. Check that all personnel are clear of the truck, then restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. CAUTION! If you activate any Q-min adjustment screw

Pressure Settings 4. Delta P is adjusted by the ∆P screw on the ∆P regulator (see Figure 162). Loosen the jam nut and adjust the screw inward to increase pressure, or outward to decrease pressure until it is set at 20 bar (±1). Contact Schwing America’s Service Department if you are unable to adjust the pressure to spec. NOTE! If the boom is not smooth at 20 bar, you must fine tune the adjustment. In that case, REMOVE THE GAUGE, and adjust ∆P until the

boom is responsive and smooth. When done, the gauge (reinstalled) must read between 14 and 25 bar. The electronics in the control system can also affect how the boom operates, so if ∆P adjustment does not seem to help, reset to 20 bar and check the electrical settings. Once electrical settings are verified, you could again refine the boom action with the ∆P adjustment.

CAUTION Do not operate any functions while setting ∆P.

You must check Q-min pressure when the engine is at the maximum specified RPM, but you must adjust it with the engine stopped. If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as the first step of ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position (see Figure 161). Remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge from the 0 - 400 bar gauge port, and install the 0 - 600 bar gauge in its place. Clear all personnel away from the drive lines, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). Read the pressure on the 0 - 600 gauge. Pressure should be at 40 - 45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, stop the drivelines from turning, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, then continue to paragraph to check the rest of the boom and outrigger pressures. If adjustment is needed, continue to step (5.).

1. Turn the Q-min screw in to raise the pressure (Figure 161). Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures. Setting boom pressures

(Load sensing proportional booms.) Now that ∆P and Q-min are set, you can check or set the boom valve pressures. • There are three pressure settings on the boom circuit: (see Figure 163) 1.

boom control block relief valve

To check the setting of the valve with the highest pressure, you must first raise the pressure of the lower two: 1. Loosen the jam nut of the high pressure adjustment screw of the ∆P regulator. Turn the screw in twoand-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure on the regulator above 350 bar. 2. Loosen the jam nut of the adjustment screw of the redundant relief valve in the emergency stop manifold. Turn the screw in one-and-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure setting of the relief valve to above 350 bar. 3. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down by pushing or pulling the control handle. To pressure out a cylinder, retract a fully retracted cylinder or extend a fully extended cylinder. The oil is forced

over the relief valve. The telltale hiss of an open relief valve should be coming from the Apitech control block relief valve now. If it isn’t, raise the setting of the other pressure devices until the hiss originates at the Apitech control block relief valve. Read the pressure on the gauge. It should read 350 bar. If pressure is correct, proceed to step (4.). NOTE! Although the pressure specification for the Apitech relief valve is 350 bar, you may continue to use the relief valve as long as the cartridge maintains at least 330 bar. If you must replace the valve, proceed to step (4.) before using the machine again, and redo this entire procedure when you have installed the new

HOME

Pressure Settings valve. If pressure on the Apitech relief valve is below 290 bar, you should not use the machine until the valve is replaced. 4. Screw out the e-stop manifold redundant relief valve adjustment screw one-and-a-half turns. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, and read the gauge. Pressure should read 330 bar. If it does not, turn the screw in to raise pressure, or out to lower pressure until it is set at 330 bar. If the location of this valve causes you to be near the drivelines, be sure to stop them from turning before accessing the valve. 5. You will need a helper for this step. While pressuring out any boom cylinder except #1 down, have your helper adjust the high pressure screw of the ∆P regulator out (lowering the pressure) until the gauge reads 300 bar. Release the pressurized function and lock the jam nut. The boom pressures are now set. If you did not get the readings specified after following the instructions, contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for advice on how to continue.

Setting the 140 bar down side relief valve pressure Set the pressure of the 140 bar down side relief valve. This valve is a secondary relief valve for #1 cylinder retract function. Proper adjustment ensures that the #1 boom and the A-frame won’t be damaged by putting the boom in the cradle. (See figure 146.) To adjust this valve (requires a 2.5 mm Allen wrench and a standard screwdriver): 1. Install a 0 - 400 bar or 0 - 600 bar gauge into the 140 bar gauge port (shown in Figure 164). 2. Unfold the #2 section from #1 until it is straight. For the following procedure we must bring #1 all the way down until the cylinder bottoms out. Position the boom so this can be done without hitting the truck or any other obstacle. 3. Bring #1 down until the cylinder is completely bottomed out. The cylinder does NOT bottom out if you are setting the folded boom into the A-frame (travel position). 4. Activate the #1 down (retract) handvalve The boom will not be able to move because the cylinder is already bottomed out. Read the pressure on the gauge that you just installed. It should read 140 bar. If no adjustment is necessary, skip to step 6.

5. If adjustment is needed, loosen the set screw of the 140 bar relief valve with the 2.5 mm Allen wrench. While you activate #1 down, adjust the relief cartridge with the screwdriver until the pressure reads just under 140 bar. Retightening the set screw will raise the pressure slightly. Recheck the pressure, and readjust if needed. 6. When the pressure is set at 140 bar with the set screw tight, you can remove the whip hose gauge and replace the cap on the gauge port. 7. The boom pressure setting sequence is complete. If you are done with the boom, slew it back into the transport position, and lower #1 into the cradle. Reattach the boom strap.

Setting the outrigger pressures (7 place boom valve system) After the boom pressures are set, you can set the outrigger pressure. • In this system, the boom, outriggers, water pump, and compressor circuits have all been put together in the boom valve manifold. (See Figure 227). When the outrigger selector pushbutton is activated, the outrigger valve routes oil to the two outrigger handvalve banks, one on each side of the unit. A relief valve inside the passenger side bank limits the entire outrigger circuit to 280 bar (4060 PSI) instead of the 300 bar (4350 PSI) of the boom relief valve. • To set the 280 bar relief valve for the outrigger circuit: (See Figure 166).

1. Wear safety glasses whenever you check or set pressures. 2. Plug the whip hose of a 0-400 or 0-600 bar gauge into the gauge port. Location is shown as item 1 in figure 227. 3. If not already done, start the truck engine and set the transmission and PTO as you would for a pumping job. 4. Locate the 280 bar relief valve on the back of the outrigger valve, as shown in Figure 166. 5. Set the engine RPM to maximum. 6. Select “outrigger” with the outrigger pushbutton. This will route oil to the outrigger handvalves.

Check hydraulic pressures •

Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40° to 60° C).The specifications for all circuit pressures are found on the hydraulic schematics in the appendix section of this manual.

Preheat the hydraulic oil

• To heat the oil to operating temperature: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve and close it. There is a picture of the location on page 6-362. Note! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, you can order one using part number 10004680 (valve) and

part number 30303432 (tube). Contact Schwing’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for installation instructions. 2. Turn on the agitator. The agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. 3. At an idle (approx. 600 rpm), about 5.4 horsepower is being converted to heat. Shut off the agitator when the temperature gauge on the rear control panel shows 40° C. Don’t forget to open the shutoff valve when the procedure is finished.

To check or set the concrete pump pressure adjustments, follow these steps: 1. Wear safety glasses when checking or setting pressures. 2. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are installed on the waterbox. Use of the remote control box for the following pressure setting procedure is NOT recommended. 3. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO and transmission into gear just as you would to pump a job. 4. See figures 219, 173, and 174. Locate and close the concrete pump shutoff valve, and the soft switch shutoff valve. (These valves are also known as quarter turn valves).

5. Install a 0 - 400 or 0 - 600 bar gauge in the gauge port. 6. Put the rear control panel switch “remote / local” into the “local” position. 7. Be sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Reset the e-stop circuit. 8. Using the switch on the rear control panel, rev the truck engine up to full RPM. 9. Put the concrete pump “forward / neutral / reverse” switch on the rear control panel into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke no more than once, then the rock cylinder will retract. Oil leaving the hydraulic pumps will be blocked in the brain. This is called high-pressuring the concrete pump.

Pressure shown on the gauge should be the same as the specification for the concrete pump circuit on the hydraulic schematic. Return the pump control to “neutral” whether the pressure needs adjustment or not. If no adjustment is needed, skip to step (5.) on page 6352. If adjustment is needed, proceed to step (1.).

Setting the main relief valve The main relief valve is the primary pressure control device on units equipped with Rexroth A7VO hydraulic pumps. CAUTION! The main relief valve is set to very high pressure (at least 350 bar). Use the rear control panel switch when checking the pressure of the main relief

valve so you will be out of the way if a hose or fitting blows. See Figure 174. If the main relief valve needs adjustment, proceed as follows: 1. Always wear eye protection when checking or setting pressures. 2. Using a 9/16” spanner wrench, loosen the jam nut on the main relief valve adjusting screw (Figure 174). 3. Insert a 5/32” Allen wrench in the adjustment screw. Turn the screw in to raise pressure, out to lower the pressure. Always go back to the rear panel before checking the pressure.

4. Once the pressure is correct to the hydraulic schematic, retighten the jam nut. Tightening the nut tends to raise the pressure, so check pressure again after tightening. 5. If you will not be setting the soft switch pressure, open the shutoff valves. The unit will not stroke with closed shutoff valves.

Setting the soft switch circuit relief pressure •

To check or adjust the soft switch pressure setting, proceed as follows: 1. Open the soft switch shutoff valve, as shown in figure 174. The rest of the unit should still be set up as though you were going to check concrete pump pressure. 2. High pressure the concrete pump. The pressure gauge should read 60 or 80 bar (check your schematic). If adjustment is needed, proceed to step (3), below. If no adjustment is needed, skip to step (.). 3. Loosen the jam nut on the soft switch relief valve with a 9/16” spanner wrench. Adjust the pressure up or down, as needed, using a 5/32” Allen wrench. When the correct pressure is achieved, re-lock the jam nut.

4. Be sure to open the concrete pump shutoff valve on the side of the brain (shown in Figure 175) when you are finished. The unit cannot stroke with this valve closed.

Setting the boom pressures (7 place black and white circuit) If your unit has a black and white boom system, it will have different pressure adjustments than if it is equipped with a loadsensing proportional system. The following instructions are for black and white systems. If you have a proportional unit, contact Schwing American’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for correct instructions. To set the 300 bar boom circuit relief valve proceed as follows: (See Figure 176) 1. The boom must be raised and rotated 180° for this procedure, so you must set the outriggers as you would to pump a job. Be sure that you set up well away from electrical wires and other obstructions. 2. Once the outriggers are set, unlock the boom strap, and raise the #1 boom far enough that you won’t hit anything on the truck. Leave the rest of the boom folded. Rotate the boom so that you have safe and easy access to the boom control valves. 3. Remove the control block cover, held on by 2 M6 screws.

4. Install the whip hose of a 0 - 400 or 0 - 600 bar gauge in the 300 bar gauge port (see Figure 177). 5. Assuming that your boom is completely folded up (except for #1), select a handle, and retract #2, #3 or #4 section. Do NOT use #1 retract, slewing left right, outrigger, water pump, or any extend function. (Again, when you try to retract a fully retracted cylinder, the oil has no where to go except over the relief valve; this allows the relief valve setting to be read on a gauge). Read the pressure on the whip gauge that you installed in step 4, above. It should read 300 bar. If no adjustment is necessary, skip to step 8. 6. If adjustment is needed, put your wrench on the 300 bar relief valve at the back of the boom control valve bank. While you are holding the function in retract mode, adjust the cartridge in or out until the pressure reads 300 bar.

7. If you cannot achieve 300 bar, it is possible that there is a problem with the emergency stop manifold (see Figure 178). You can plumb the malfunctioning circuit out of the system to test it. Use only approved hydraulic dead plugs to plug the inlet hose to the malfunctioning circuit. If pressure can now be achieved, the e-stop manifold is the source of the problem. Contact Schwing America’s Service Department for advice on repair of the e-stop manifold. Repair the e-stop manifold before using the unit again. Remember, the emergency stop switches do nothing if the e-stop manifold is plumbed out of the system.

Proper adjustment ensures that the #1 boom and the A-frame won’t be damaged by putting the boom in the cradle. (See figure 179.) To adjust this valve (requires a 2.5 mm Allen wrench and a standard screwdriver): 1. Install a 0 - 400 bar or 0 - 600 bar gauge into the 140 bar gauge port (shown in Figure 146). 2. Unfold the #2 section from #1 until it is straight. For the following procedure we must bring #1 all the way down until the cylinder bottoms out. Position the boom so this can be done without hitting the truck or any other obstacle.

3. Bring #1 down until the cylinder is completely bottomed out. The cylinder does NOT bottom out if you are setting the folded boom into the A-frame (travel position). 4. Activate the #1 down (retract) handvalve The boom will not be able to move because the cylinder is already bottomed out. Read the pressure on the gauge that you just installed. It should read 140 bar. If no adjustment is necessary, skip to step 6. 5. If adjustment is needed, loosen the set screw of the 140 bar relief valve with the 2.5 mm Allen wrench. While you activate #1 down, adjust the relief cartridge with the screwdriver until the pressure reads just under 140 bar. Retightening the set screw will raise the pressure slightly. Recheck the pressure, and readjust if needed.

Setting the outrigger pressures (7 place boom valve systems) After the boom pressures are set, you can set the outrigger pressure. • In this system, the boom, outriggers, water pump, and compressor circuits have all been put together in the boom valve manifold. (See Figure 227). When the outrigger selector pushbutton is activated, the outrigger valve routes oil to the two outrigger handvalve banks, one on each side of the unit. A relief valve inside the passenger side bank limits the entire outrigger circuit to 280 bar (4060 PSI) instead of the 300 bar (4350 PSI) of the boom relief valve. • To set the 280 bar relief valve for the outrigger circuit: (See Figure 182).

1. Wear safety glasses whenever you check or set pressures.

2. Plug the whip hose of a 0 - 400 or 0 - 600 bar gauge into the gauge port. Location is shown in figure 227. 3. If not already done, start the truck engine and set the transmission and PTO as you would for a pumping job. 4. Locate the 280 bar relief valve on the back of the outrigger valve, as shown in Figure 228. 5. Set the engine RPM to maximum. 6. Select “outrigger” with the outrigger pushbutton. This will route oil to the outrigger handvalves. 7. Assuming that the outriggers are folded into the travel position, activate the passenger side handvalve “jacking cylinder retract” for either the front or rear outrigger. Note! You will get an incorrect reading if you select “extension cylinder retract” by mistake. If you select “extend” by mistake, the outriggers will extend instead of reading the relief valve setting. The handles are spring loaded and will return to neutral as soon as you let go.

Return the RPM of the truck to an idle, take the transmission and PTO out of gear, and shut off the truck, or go on to the other pressure settings, as required.

To set the agitator circuit pressure: The agitator relief valve is located in the agitator forward / neutral / reverse handvalve, at the rear of the unit on the driver’s side. The relief valve limits the pressure in the agitator circuit to 200 bar (2900 PSI). (See Figure 183). There is a gauge port for checking or setting the pressure in this circuit. The port is located on the agitator handvalve. To check or set the agitator pressure, follow these steps: 1. Remove the aluminum diamond plate cover from over the agitator handvalve.

2. Unscrew the cover from the gauge port. Plug in the 0 - 600 bar gauge and whip hose that came in the toolbox. 3. Start the engine, if not already running. 4. Close the agitator shutoff valve. (See Figure 184.) Note! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, you can order one using part number 10004680 (valve) and part number 30303432 (tube). Contact Schwing’s Service Dept. for installation instructions. 5. Activate the agitator in forward. Read the pressure on the gauge. 6. If adjustment is needed, put your wrench on the body of the relief valve, which is located on the back of the agitator handvalve. While reading the gauge, turn the body in to raise pressure, or out to lower pressure until 200 bar is achieved. 7. Put the agitator handle in neutral. 8. Remove the whip hose and pressure gauge. Replace the gauge port cover. 9. Replace the aluminum diamond plate over the agitator handvalve.

Check the mounting hardware of the subframe, the oil and water tanks, the delivery pipeline, the pumpkit, the differential cylinders, the material cylinders and the driveline hardware. Check for bolt tightness, cracks and other abnormalities.

Check hydraulic pressures •

Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40° to 60° C).The specifications for all circuit pressures are found on the hydraulic schematics in the appendix section of this manual.

Preheat the hydraulic oil

•

Because of the new load sensing and pressure cutoff regulated hydraulic systems, you can’t use the concrete pump or boom circuit to preheat the hydraulic oil (they stop putting out oil if you try). To heat the oil to operating temperature:

1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve and close it. There is a picture of the location on page 6-362. Note! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, you can order one using part number 10004680 (valve) and part number 30303432 (tube). Contact Schwing’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for installation instructions. 2. Turn on the agitator. The agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. 3. At an idle (approx. 600 rpm), about 5.4 horsepower is being converted to heat. Shut off the agitator when the temperature gauge on the rear control panel shows 40° C. Don’t forget to open the shutoff valve when the procedure is finished.

Check the concrete pump pressure (2020, 2023, 2525 pumpkits) •

Because the Hi-flow pumpkits have the ability to create high pressure on the concrete the pressure settings have to be tailored specifically for each model. This means that we cannot simply list a

Main relief valve Soft switch relief valve

Figure 186 Location of the concrete pump circuit main relief valve and soft switch relief valve

To check or set the concrete pump pressure adjustments, follow these steps: 1. Wear safety glasses when checking or setting pressures. 2. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are installed on the waterbox. Use of the remote control box for the following pressure setting procedure is NOT recommended. 3. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO and transmission into gear just as you would to pump a job. 4. See Figure 186. Locate and close the concrete pump shutoff valve, and the soft switch shutoff valve. (These valves are also known as quarter turn valves). 5. Install a 0 - 400 or 0 - 600 bar gauge in the gauge port. 6. Put the rear control panel switch “remote / local” into the “local” position. 7. Be sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Reset the e-stop circuit. 8. Using the switch on the rear control panel, rev the truck engine up to full RPM.

9. Put the concrete pump “forward / neutral / reverse” switch on the rear control panel into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke no more than once, then the rock cylinder will retract. Oil leaving the hydraulic pumps will be blocked in the brain. This is called high-pressuring the concrete pump. 10. Read the pressure on the gauge. Pressure should read as shown for the concrete pump circuit main relief valve setting on the hydraulic schematic. Return the pump control to “neutral” whether the pressure needs adjustment or not. If no adjustment is needed, skip to step (5.) on page 6-352. If adjustment is needed, proceed to step (1.).

Setting the main relief valve The main relief valve is the primary pressure control device on units equipped with Rexroth A7VO hydraulic pumps. CAUTION! The main relief valve is set to very high pressure (at least 350 bar). Use the rear control panel switch when checking the pressure of the main relief valve so you will be out of the way if a hose or fitting blows. See Figure 103. If the main relief valve needs adjustment, proceed as follows:

Insert a 5/32” allen wrench in the adjustment screw. Turn the screw in to raise pressure, out to lower the pressure. Always go back to the rear panel before checking the pressure. 4. Once the pressure is correct to the hydraulic schematic, retighten the jam nut. Tightening the nut tends to raise the pressure, so check pressure again after tightening. Don’t forget to turn the pressure cut-off adjustment screws back out 1 turn each and verify the correct pressure setting before unplugging the gauge. 5. If you will not be setting the soft switch pressure, open the shutoff valves. The unit will not stroke with closed shutoff valves.

Setting the soft switch circuit relief pressure •

To check or adjust the soft switch pressure setting, proceed as follows:

1. Open the soft switch shutoff valve, as shown in Figure 188. The rest of the unit should still be set up as though you were going to check concrete pump pressure. 2. High pressure the concrete pump. The pressure gauge should read 60 or 80 bar (check your schematic). If adjustment is needed, proceed to step (), below. If no adjustment is needed, skip to step (.). 3. Loosen the jam nut on the soft switch relief valve with a 9/16” spanner wrench. Adjust the pressure up or down, as needed, using a 5/32” Allen wrench. When the correct pressure is achieved, re-lock the jam nut. 4. Be sure to open the concrete pump shutoff valve on the side of the brain (shown in Figure 188) when you are finished. The unit cannot stroke with this valve closed.

Load-sensing boom pressures (7 place proportional circuit) If your unit has a loadsensing proportional system, it will have different pressure adjustments than if it is equipped with a black and white boom system.

Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when checking or setting pressures.

Setting ∆P Note! Do not adjust ∆P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from there. It was fine tuned at the factory, and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary. • You must not adjust Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. To check or set ∆P, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the truck windshield. 2. Install a 0-40 or 0-60 bar gauge in the 0-400 bar gauge port of the manual boom handvalves. Take care not to accidently install the gauge in the 0-60 bar port. (See Figure 191.)

Pressure Settings

system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain a 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting Q-min and ∆P. See figure 192.

Note! Whenever you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40° - 60° C). Instructions for heating the hydraulic oil are found in section on page 351.

3. To be sure that the pump is putting out only enough oil needed to maintain ∆P, we need to change the setting of the Q-min screw. Q-min is adjusted by a screw on the boom hydraulic pump (see Figure 192). Unscrew the Q-min screw three full turns. Check that all personnel are clear of the truck, then restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. CAUTION! If you activate any Q-min adjustment screw

You must check Q-min pressure when the engine is at the maximum specified RPM, but you must adjust it with the engine stopped. If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as the first step of ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position (see Figure 192). Remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge from the 0 - 400 bar gauge port, and install the 0 - 600 bar gauge in its place. Clear all personnel away from the drive lines, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). Read the pressure on the 0 - 600 gauge. Pressure should be at 40 - 45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, stop the drivelines from turning, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, then continue to paragraph to check the rest of the boom and outrigger pressures. If adjustment is needed, continue to step (5.). Turn the Q-min screw in to raise the pressure (Figure 192). Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures.

To check the setting of the valve with the highest pressure, you must first raise the pressure of the lower two: 4. Loosen the jam nut of the high pressure adjustment screw of the ∆P regulator. Turn the screw in twoand-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure on the regulator above 350 bar. 5. Loosen the jam nut of the adjustment screw of the redundant relief valve in the emergency stop manifold. Turn the screw in one-and-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure setting of the relief valve to above 350 bar. 6. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down by pushing or pulling the control handle. To pressure out a cylinder, retract a fully retracted cylinder or extend a fully extended cylinder. The oil is forced

over the relief valve. The telltale hiss of an open relief valve should be coming from the Apitech control block relief valve now. If it isn’t, raise the setting of the other pressure devices until the hiss originates at the Apitech control block relief valve. Read the pressure on the gauge. It should read 350 bar. If pressure is correct, proceed to step (4.). NOTE! Although the pressure specification for the Apitech relief valve is 350 bar, you may continue to use the relief valve as long as the cartridge maintains at least 330 bar. If you must replace the valve, proceed to step (4.) before using the machine again, and redo this entire procedure

when you have installed the new valve. If pressure on the Apitech relief valve is below 290 bar, you should not use the machine until the valve is replaced. 7. Screw out the e-stop manifold redundant relief valve adjustment screw one-and-a-half turns. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, and read the gauge. Pressure should read 330 bar. If it does not, turn the screw in to raise pressure, or out to lower pressure until it is set at 330 bar. If the location of this valve causes you to be near the drivelines, be sure to stop them from turning before accessing the valve. 8. You will need a helper for this step. While pressuring out any boom cylinder except #1 down, have your helper adjust the high pressure screw of the ∆P regulator out (lowering the pressure) until the gauge reads 300 bar. Release the pressurized function and lock the jam nut. The boom pressures are now set. If you did not get the readings specified after following the instructions, contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for advice on how to continue.

Setting the 140 bar down side relief valve pressure Set the pressure of the 140 bar down side relief valve. This valve is a secondary relief valve for #1 cylinder retract function. Proper adjustment ensures that the #1 boom and the A-frame won’t be damaged by putting the boom in the cradle. (See figure 195.) To adjust this valve (requires a 2.5 mm Allen wrench and a standard screwdriver): 1. Install a 0 - 400 bar or 0 - 600 bar gauge into the 140 bar gauge port (shown in Figure 195). 2. Unfold the #2 section from #1 until it is straight. For the following procedure we must bring #1 all the way down until the cylinder bottoms out. Position the boom so this can be done without hitting the truck or any other obstacle. 3. Bring #1 down until the cylinder is completely bottomed out. The cylinder does NOT bottom out if you are setting the folded boom into the A-frame (travel position). 4. Activate the #1 down (retract) handvalve The boom will not be able to move because the cylinder is already bottomed out. Read the pressure on the gauge that you just installed. It should read 140 bar. If no adjustment is necessary, skip to step 6.

Pressure Settings

5. If adjustment is needed, loosen the set screw of the 140 bar relief valve with the 2.5 mm allen wrench. While you activate #1 down, adjust the relief cartridge with the screwdriver until the pressure reads just under 140 bar. Retightening the set screw will raise the pressure slightly. Recheck the pressure, and readjust if needed. 6. When the pressure is set at 140 bar with the set screw tight, you can remove the whip hose gauge and replace the cap on the gauge port. 7. The boom pressure setting sequence is complete. If you are done with the boom, slew it back into the transport position, and lower #1 into the cradle. Reattach the boom strap.

Setting the outrigger pressures After the boom pressures are set, you can set the outrigger pressure. • In this system, the boom, outriggers, water pump, and compressor circuits have all been put together in the boom valve manifold. (See Figure 227). When the outrigger selector pushbutton is activated, the outrigger valve routes oil to the two outrigger handvalve banks, one on each side of the unit. A relief valve inside the passenger side bank limits the entire outrigger circuit to 280 bar (4060 PSI) instead of the 300 bar (4350 PSI) of the boom relief valve. • To set the 280 bar relief valve for the outrigger circuit: (See Figure 227 & Figure 228).

1. Wear safety glasses whenever you check or set pressures. 2. Plug the whip hose of a 0-400 or 0-600 bar gauge into the gauge port. Location is shown as item 1 in figure 227. 3. If not already done, start the truck engine and set the transmission and PTO as you would for a pumping job. 4. Locate the 280 bar relief valve on the back of the outrigger valve, as shown in Figure 197. 5. Set the engine RPM to maximum. 6. Select “outrigger” with the outrigger pushbutton. This will route oil to the outrigger handvalves.

2. Unscrew the cover from the gauge port. Plug in the 0-600 bar gauge and whip hose that came in the toolbox. 3. Start the engine, if not already running. 4. Close the agitator shutoff valve. (See Figure 200.) Note! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, you can order one using part number 10004680 (valve) and part number 30303432 (tube). Contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for installation instructions. 5. Activate the agitator in forward. Read the pressure on the gauge. 6. If adjustment is needed, put your wrench on the body of the relief valve, which is located on the back of the agitator handvalve. While reading the gauge, turn the body in to raise pressure, or out to lower pressure until 200 bar is achieved. 7. Put the agitator handle in neutral. 8. Remove the whip hose and pressure gauge. Replace the gauge port cover.

Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40° to 60° C).The specifications for all circuit pressures are found on the hydraulic schematics in the appendix section of this manual.

Preheat the hydraulic oil •

Because of the new load sensing and pressure cutoff regulated hydraulic systems, you can’t use the concrete pump or boom circuit to preheat the hydraulic oil (they stop putting out oil if you try). To heat the oil to operating temperature: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve and close it. There is a picture of the location on page 6-362. Note! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, you can order one using part number 10004680 (valve) and

Contact Schwing’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for installation instructions. 2. Turn on the agitator. The agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. 3. At an idle (approx. 600 rpm), about 5.4 horsepower is being converted to heat. Shut off the agitator when the temperature gauge on the rear control panel shows 40° C. Don’t forget to open the shutoff valve when the procedure is finished.

Check the concrete pump pressure (2020, 2023, 2525 pumpkits) Because the Hi-flow pumpkits have the ability to create high pressure on the concrete the pressure settings have to be tailored specifically for each model. This means that we cannot simply list a pressure specification for all units. The correct pressure specifications for your unit are shown on the hydraulic schematic in section 7 of this manual. (See Figure 218). Additionally, the pressure is not limited by the main relief valve, but rather by a pressure cutoff adjustment on the concrete

Locate and close the concrete pump shutoff valve, and the soft switch shutoff valve. (These valves are also known as quarter turn valves). 5. Install a 0 - 400 or 0 - 600 bar gauge in the gauge port. 6. Put the rear control panel switch “remote / local” into the “local” position. 7. Be sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Reset the e-stop circuit. 8. Using the switch on the rear control panel, rev the truck engine up to full RPM. 9. Put the concrete pump “forward / neutral / reverse” switch on the rear control panel into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke no more than once,

then the rock cylinder will retract. Oil leaving the hydraulic pumps will be blocked in the brain. This is called high-pressuring the concrete pump. 10. Read the pressure on the gauge. Pressure shown on the gauge is actually the hydraulic pump cutoff pressure, because it is set to the lowest setting. Pressure should be as shown for the concrete pump circuit hydraulic pumps on the hydraulic schematic. Return the pump control to “neutral” whether the pressure needs adjustment or not. If no adjustment is needed, skip to step (5.) on page 6352. If adjustment is needed, proceed to step (11.). 11.

Setting the main relief valve The main relief valve is not the primary pressure control device on units with Hi-flo pumpkits. CAUTION! The main relief valve is set to very high pressure (at least 350 bar). Use the rear control panel switch when checking the pressure of the main relief valve so you will be out of the way if a hose or fitting blows. Always wear eye protection when setting pressures! See Figure 103. If the main relief valve needs adjustment, proceed as follows: 1. If you ever need to check or adjust the main relief valve, you must first screw in the pressure cut-off screws on the hydraulic pumps by 1 turn each. Then, when you high pressure the concrete pump, you will be reading the setting of the main relief valve.

Don’t forget to turn the pressure cut-off adjustment screws back out 1 turn each and verify the correct pressure setting before unplugging the gauge. 5. If you will not be setting the soft switch pressure, open the shutoff valves. The unit will not stroke with closed shutoff valves.

Setting the soft switch circuit relief pressure •

To check or adjust the soft switch pressure setting, proceed as follows: 1. Open the soft switch shutoff valve, as shown in figure 203. The rest of the unit should still be set up as though you were going to check concrete pump pressure.

2. High pressure the concrete pump. The pressure gauge should read 60 or 80 bar (check your schematic). If adjustment is needed, proceed to step (), below. If no adjustment is needed, skip to step (.). 3. Loosen the jam nut on the soft switch relief valve with a 9/16” spanner wrench. Adjust the pressure up or down, as needed, using a 5/32” allen wrench. When the correct pressure is achieved, re-lock the jam nut. 4. Be sure to open the concrete pump shutoff valve on the side of the brain (shown in Figure 203) when you are finished. The unit cannot stroke with this valve closed.

Setting boom pressures (7 place proportional circuit) If your unit has a loadsensing proportional system, it will have different pressure adjustments than if it is equipped with a black and white boom system. The following instructions are for load-sensing proportional systems. If your unit is equipped with a black and white boom system, these instructions will be wrong. Contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 to obtain correct instructions.

SERVICE TRAINING Preheat the oil

Note! Whenever you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40° - 60° C). Instructions for heating the hydraulic oil are found in section on page 6-351. About proportional boom systems

In a black and white boom system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts Manual boom handvalves

out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain a 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting Q-min and ∆P. See figure 222. P regulator Q-min adjustment screw

Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when checking or setting pressures.

Setting ∆P Note! Do not adjust ∆P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from there. It was fine tuned at the factory, and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary. • You must not adjust ∆P or Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the ∆P or Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. To check or set ∆P, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the truck windshield. 2. Install a 0-40 or 0-60 bar gauge in the 0-400 bar gauge port of the manual boom handvalves. Take care not to accidently install the gauge in the 0-60 bar port. (See Figure 207.)

3. To be sure that the pump is putting out only enough oil needed to maintain ∆P, we need to change the setting of the Q-min screw. Q-min is adjusted by a screw on the boom hydraulic pump (see Figure 207). Unscrew the Q-min screw three full turns. Check that all personnel are clear of the truck, then restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. CAUTION! If you activate any boom or outrigger functions, you will damage the 0 - 40 bar gauge. Make sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Pressure can be read on the 0 40 bar gauge that you installed. Pressure should read 20 bar. If no adjustment is needed, simply reset the Q-min screw as described in . If adjustment is needed, continue to step (2.). 4. Delta P is adjusted by the ∆P screw on the boom pump regulator (see Figure 207). Loosen the jam nut and adjust the screw inward to increase pressure, or outward to decrease pressure until it is set at 20 bar (±1). Contact Schwing America’s Service Department if you are unable to adjust the pressure to spec. NOTE! If the boom is not smooth at 20 bar, you must fine tune the adjustment. In that case, REMOVE THE GAUGE, and adjust ∆P until the boom is responsive and smooth. When done,

You must check Q-min pressure when the engine is at the maximum specified RPM, but you must adjust it with the engine stopped. If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as the first step of ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position (see Figure 207). Remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge from the 0 - 400 bar gauge port, and install the 0 - 600 bar gauge in its place. Clear all personnel away from the drive lines, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). Read the pressure on the 0 - 600 gauge. Pressure should be at 40 - 45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, stop the drivelines from turning, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, then continue to paragraph to check the rest of the boom and outrigger pressures. If adjustment is needed, continue to step (5.). Turn the Q-min screw in to raise the pressure (Figure 225). Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures.

Setting boom pressures (Load sensing proportional booms.) Now that ∆P and Q-min are set, you can check or set the boom valve pressures. • There are three pressure settings on the boom circuit: (see Figure 209) 1. Pressure regulator (the high-pressure adjustment screw on the boom hydraulic pump), set at 300 bar. 2. The redundant relief valve located in the emergency stop manifold, set at 330 bar. 3. The boom control block relief valve, set at 350 bar. NOTE! This relief valve is nonadjustable. If pressure is not maintained with the specification limits, the cartridge valve must be replaced. • To check the setting of the valve with the highest pressure, you must first raise the pressure of the lower two:

PRINT

Pressure Settings

4. With the drive shafts stopped, loosen the jam nut of the high pressure adjustment screw of the boom hydraulic pump pressure regulator. Turn the screw in two-and-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure of the regulator above 350 bar. 5. Loosen the jam nut of the adjustment screw of the redundant relief valve in the emergency stop manifold. Turn the screw in one-and-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure setting of the relief valve to above 350 bar. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down by pushing or pulling the control handle. To pressure out a cylinder, retract a fully retracted cylinder or extend a fully extended cylinder. The oil is forced over the relief valve. The telltale hiss of an open relief valve should be coming from the Apitech control block relief valve now. If it isn’t, raise the setting of the other pressure devices until the hiss originates at the Apitech control block relief valve. Read the pressure on the gauge. It should read 350 bar. If pressure is correct, proceed to step (4.). NOTE! Although the pressure specification for the Apitech relief valve is 350 bar, you may continue to use the relief valve as long as the cartridge maintains at least 330 bar. If you must replace the valve, proceed to step (4.) before using the machine again, and redo this entire procedure when you have installed the new valve. If pressure on the Apitech relief valve is below 290 bar, you should not use the machine until the valve is replaced. 6. Screw out the e-stop manifold redundant relief valve adjustment screw one-and-a-half turns. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, and read the gauge. Pressure should read 330 bar. If it does not, turn the screw in to raise pressure, or out to lower pressure until it is set at 330 bar. If the location of this valve causes you to be near the drivelines, be sure to stop them from turning before accessing the valve. 7. With the truck engine off, adjust the high pressure screw of the boom hydraulic pump regulator out (lowering the pressure) two-and-a-half turns. Start the engine, pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, and read the pressure on the gauge. It should read 300 bar. If not, repeat step (7.), adjusting the screw a small amount each time, until the gauge reads 300 bar when a cylinder is pressured out.

This valve is a secondary relief valve for #1 cylinder retract function. Proper adjustment ensures that the #1 boom and the A-frame won’t be damaged by putting the boom in the cradle. (See figure 211.) To adjust this valve (requires a 2.5 mm Allen wrench and a standard screwdriver): 1. Install a 0 - 400 bar or 0 - 600 bar gauge into the 140 bar gauge port (shown in Figure 211). 2. Unfold the #2 section from #1 until it is straight. For the following procedure we must bring #1 all the way down until the cylinder bottoms out. Position the boom so this can be done without hitting the truck or any other obstacle. 3. Bring #1 down until the cylinder is completely bottomed out. The cylinder does NOT bottom out if you are setting the folded boom into the A-frame (travel position). 4. Activate the #1 down (retract) handvalve The boom will not be able to move because the cylinder is already bottomed out. Read the pressure on the gauge that you just installed. It should read 140 bar. If no adjustment is necessary, skip to step 6.

5. If adjustment is needed, loosen the set screw of the 140 bar relief valve with the 2.5 mm allen wrench. While you activate #1 down, adjust the relief cartridge with the screwdriver until the pressure reads just under 140 bar. Retightening the set screw will raise the pressure slightly. Recheck the pressure, and readjust if needed. 6. When the pressure is set at 140 bar with the set screw tight, you can remove the whip hose gauge and replace the cap on the gauge port. 7. The boom pressure setting sequence is complete. If you are done with the boom, slew it back into the transport position, and lower #1 into the cradle. Attach the boom strap.

Setting the outrigger pressures (7 place boom valve systems) After the boom pressures are set, you can set the outrigger pressure. • In this system, the boom, outriggers, water pump, and compressor circuits have all been put together in the boom valve manifold. (See Figure 211). When the outrigger selector push-button is activated, the outrigger valve routes oil to the two outrigger handvalve banks, one on each side of the unit. A relief valve inside the passenger side bank limits the entire outrigger circuit to 280 bar (4060 PSI) instead of the 300 bar (4350 PSI) of the boom relief valve. • To set the 280 bar relief valve for the outrigger circuit: (See Figure 213).

1. Wear safety glasses whenever you check or set pressures. 2. Plug the whip hose of a 0-400 or 0-600 bar gauge into the gauge port. Location is shown as item 1 in figure 213.

3. If not already done, start the truck engine and set the transmission and PTO as you would for a pumping job. 4. Locate the 280 bar relief valve on the back of the outrigger valve, as shown in Figure 213. 5. Set the engine RPM to maximum. 6. Select “outrigger” with the outrigger pushbutton. This will route oil to the outrigger handvalves. 7. Assuming that the outriggers are folded into the travel position, activate the passenger side handvalve “jacking cylinder retract” for either the front or rear outrigger. Note! You will get an incorrect reading if you select “extension cylinder retract” by mistake. If you select “extend” by mistake, the outriggers will extend instead of reading the relief valve setting. The handles are spring loaded and will return to neutral as soon as you let go. 8. Read the pressure on the gauge. It should read 280 bar (4060 PSI). If no adjustment is needed, skip to step 4.

• To check or set pretension, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine. Plug the 0 - 40 bar gauge into the pretension check port of the Apitech handvalve (Figure 214). 2. Start the truck engine, but leave it at an idle. (Pretension adjustment is made at an idle to establish the minimum pressure setting. As RPM is increased, pressure will rise. Damage to the 0 - 40 bar gauge is possible if RPM is raised while the gauge is connected.) 3. Read the pressure on the gauge. If it reads 15 bar ± 1 bar, the pressure is set correctly. If adjustment is needed, proceed to step (4.).

CAUTION Truck engine must be at an idle while setting pretension.

Check the concrete pump pressure (2020, 2023, 2525 pumpkits)

Check hydraulic pressures

Because the Hi-flow pumpkits have the ability to create high pressure on the concrete, the pressure settings have to be tailored specifically for each model. This means that we cannot simply list a pressure specification for all units. The correct pressure specifications for your unit are shown on the hydraulic schematic in Appendix, Section 7 of this manual.

The following pages provide the proper techniques for checking and setting hydraulic pressures of each system included on units up to 450 l/m. Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40° to 60° C). The specifications for all circuit pressures are found on the hydraulic schematics in the Appendix section of this manual.

NOTE: Use of the remote control box for the following pressure setting procedure is NOT recommended. To check or set the concrete pump pressure adjustments, follow these steps:

Preheat the hydraulic oil Because of the new load-sensing hydraulic systems regulated by pressure cut-off, you can’t use the concrete pump or boom circuit to preheat the hydraulic oil (they stop putting out oil rather than send it over relief). To heat the oil to operating temperature: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 217) and close it. Note! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, you can order one using part number 10004680 (valve) and part number 30303432 (tube).

The agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. 3. At an idle (approximately 600 rpm), about 5.4 horsepower is being converted to heat. Shut off the agitator when the temperature gauge on the rear control panel shows 40° C. Don’t forget to open the shutoff valve when the procedure is finished. agitoff.eps

WARNING Always wear safety glasses when checking or setting pressures. 1. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are installed on the waterbox. 2. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO and transmission into gear just as you would to pump a job. 3. Locate and close the concrete pump shutoff valve and the soft switch shutoff valve (Figure 219). (These valves are also known as quarter turn valves). 4. If your concrete pump pressure gauge is not already plumbed into the gauge port (Figure 218), install a 0 - 400 or 0 - 600 bar gauge in the gauge port. 5. The “remote / local” switch located on the rear control panel must be in the “local” position. 6. Be sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Reset the E-stop circuit. 7. Using the throttle switch on the rear control panel, bring the truck engine up to full RPM. CAUTION! The main relief valve (Figure 220) is set to very high pressure (at least 350 bar). Use the rear control panel switch when checking the pressure of the main relief valve, so you will be out of the way if a hose or fitting blows. 8. Place the concrete pump “forward / neutral / reverse” switch on the rear control panel into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke no more than once, then the rock cylinder will retract. Oil

Pressure Settings leaving the hydraulic pumps will be blocked in the brain. This is called high-pressuring the concrete pump. 9. Read the pressure on the gauge. The target pressure for the concrete pump circuit main relief valve is shown on the hydraulic schematic in the Appendix section of this manual. Return the pump control to “neutral” whether the pressure needs adjustment or not. If no adjustment is needed, skip to step 5. If adjustment is needed, proceed to next paragraph.

Setting the main relief valve The main relief valve is the primary pressure control device on units equipped with Rexroth A7VO hydraulic pumps. If the main relief valve needs adjustment, proceed as follows:

1. Wear safety glasses when checking or adjusting pressures. 2. Using a 9/16” spanner wrench, loosen the jam nut on the main relief valve adjusting screw (Figure 218). 3. Insert a 5/32” allen wrench in the adjustment screw. Turn the screw in to raise pressure and out to lower the pressure. Always go back to the rear panel before checking the pressure. 4. Once the pressure is correct to the hydraulic schematic, retighten the jam nut. Tightening the nut tends to raise the pressure, so check pressure again after tightening. 5. If you will not be setting the soft switch pressure, open the shutoff valves. The unit will not stroke with closed shutoff valves.

Load-sensing boom pressures If your unit has a load-sensing proportional system, it will have different pressure adjustments than if it is equipped with a black and white boom system. The following instructions are for seven place, load-sensing proportional systems. If you have a unit equipped with a black and white boom system, contact Schwing Service for the correct instruction pages.

Preheat the oil Note! Whenever you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40° - 60° C). Instructions for heating the hydraulic oil are found on page 351. About proportional boom systems

In a black and white boom system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain a 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting Q-min and ∆P. Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. General locations of the components for the following procedures are shown in Figure 222.

Pressure Settings

You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when checking or setting pressures.

Setting ∆P Note! Do not adjust ∆P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from there. It was fine tuned at the factory and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary. Do not adjust Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the Q-min screw is adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. To check or set ∆P, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the truck windshield. 2. Install a 0-40 or 0-60 bar gauge in the 0-400 bar gauge port (Figure 223) of the manual boom handvalves. Take care not to accidently install the gauge in the 0-60 bar port. CAUTION! If you activate any boom or outrigger functions, you will damage the 0 - 40 bar gauge. 1. To be sure that the pump is putting out only enough oil to maintain ∆P, we need to change the setting of the Q-min screw. Q-min is adjusted by a screw on the boom hydraulic pump (Figure 224). Unscrew the Q-min screw three full turns. Make sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Check that all personnel are clear of the truck, then restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. Pressure can be read on the 0 - 40 bar gauge that you installed. Pressure should read 20 bar. If no adjustment is needed, simply reset the Q-min screw as described on page 357. If adjustment is needed, continue to step (4).

2. Delta P is adjusted by the ∆P screw on the ∆P regulator (Figure 225). Loosen the jam nut, and adjust the screw inward to increase pressure or outward to decrease pressure, until it is set at 20 bar (±1). Contact Schwing America’s Service Department if you are unable to adjust the pressure to specification. NOTE! If the boom is not smooth at 20 bar, you must fine tune the adjustment. In that case, REMOVE THE GAUGE, and adjust ∆P until the boom is responsive and smooth. When done, the gauge (reinstalled) must read between 14 and 25 bar. The electronics in the control system can also affect how the boom operates, so if ∆P adjustment does not seem to help, reset to 20 bar and check the electrical settings. Once electrical settings are verified, you could again refine the boom action with the ∆P adjustment.

Setting Q-min

deltaPvlv.eps

Check Q-min pressure when the engine is at the maximum specified RPM, but the engine must be stopped to adjust the pressure. 1. If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as the first step of ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position (Figure 224). 2. Remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge from the 0 - 400 bar gauge port, and install the 0 - 600 bar gauge in its place. 3. Clear all personnel away from the drive lines, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). 4. Read the pressure on the 0 - 600 bar gauge. Pressure should be at 40 - 45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, stop the drivelines from turning, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, and proceed to Setting boom pressures. If adjustment is needed, continue to the next step.

Pressure Settings

5. Turn the Q-min screw in to raise the pressure (Figure 224). Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures.

Setting boom pressures (Load sensing proportional booms.) Now that ∆P and Q-min are set, you can check or set the boom valve pressures. There are three pressure settings (Figure 226) on the boom circuit: 1. Pressure regulator (the high-pressure adjustment screw on the ∆P regulator valve), set at 300 bar. 2. The redundant relief valve located in the emergency stop manifold, set at 330 bar. 3. The boom control block relief valve, set at 350 bar. NOTE! This relief valve is nonadjustable. If pressure is not maintained with the specification limits, the valve must be replaced.

Pressure Settings To check the setting of the valve with the highest pressure, you must first raise the pressure of the lower two: 1. Loosen the jam nut of the high pressure adjustment screw (Figure 226) of the ∆P regulator. Turn the screw in two-and-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure on the regulator above 350 bar. 2. Loosen the jam nut of the adjustment screw of the redundant relief valve (Figure 226) in the emergency stop manifold. Turn the screw in oneand-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure setting of the relief valve to above 350 bar. 3. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down by activating the control handle. To pressure out a cylinder, retract a fully retracted cylinder or extend a fully extended cylinder. The oil is then forced over the relief valve. The telltale hiss of an open relief valve should be coming from the Apitech control block relief valve now. If it isn’t, raise the setting of the other pressure devices until the hiss originates at the Apitech control block relief valve. Read the pressure on the gauge. It should read 350 bar. If pressure is correct, proceed to the next step. NOTE! Although the pressure specification for the Apitech relief valve is 350 bar, you may continue to use the relief valve as long as the cartridge maintains at least 330 bar. If you must replace the valve and don’t have one on hand, proceed to the next step before using the machine again. Redo this entire procedure when you have installed the new valve. If pressure on the Apitech relief valve is below 290 bar, you should not use the machine until the valve is replaced. 4. Screw out the e-stop manifold redundant relief valve (Figure 226) adjustment screw one-and-ahalf turns. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, and read the gauge. Pressure should read 330 bar. If it does not, turn the screw in to raise pressure or out to lower pressure until it is set at 330 bar. If the location of this valve causes you to be near the drivelines, be sure to stop them from turning before accessing the valve. 5. You will need a helper for this step. While pressuring out any boom cylinder except #1 down, have your helper adjust the high pressure screw of the ∆P regulator out (lowering the pressure) until the gauge reads 300 bar. Release the pressurized

function, and lock the jam nut. The boom pressures are now set. If you did not get the readings specified after following the instructions, contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for advice on how to continue.

Setting the 140 bar down side relief valve pressure Set the pressure of the 140 bar (Figure 226) down side relief valve. Down side relief is a secondary relief valve for #1 cylinder retract function. Proper adjustment ensures that the #1 boom and the A-frame won’t be damaged by putting the boom in the cradle. To adjust this valve (requires a 2.5 mm Allen wrench and a standard screwdriver): 1. Install a 0 - 400 bar or 0 - 600 bar gauge into the 140 bar gauge port shown in Figure 226. 2. Unfold the #2 section from #1 until it is fully extended. For the following procedure we must bring #1 all the way down until the cylinder bottoms out. Position the boom so this can be done without hitting the truck or any other obstacle. 3. Bring #1 down until the cylinder is completely bottomed out. The cylinder does NOT bottom out if you are setting the folded boom into the A-frame (travel position). 4. Activate the #1 down (retract) handvalve. The boom will not be able to move because the cylinder is already bottomed out. Read the pressure on the gauge that you just installed. It should read 140 bar. If no adjustment is necessary, skip to step 6. 5. If adjustment is needed, loosen the set screw of the 140 bar relief valve (Figure 226) with the 2.5 mm Allen wrench. While you activate #1 down, adjust the relief cartridge with the screwdriver until the pressure reads just under 140 bar. Retightening the set screw will raise the pressure slightly. Recheck the pressure, and readjust if needed. 6. When the pressure is set at 140 bar with the set screw tight, you can remove the whip hose gauge and replace the cap on the gauge port. 7. The boom pressure setting sequence is complete. If you are done with the boom, fold it back into the transport position, and reattach the boom strap.

Setting the outrigger pressures After the boom pressures are set, you can set the outrigger pressure.

otrghndl.eps

Figure 227 Position of the outrigger selector valve on units equipped with Apitech proportional valves In this system, the boom, outriggers, water pump, and compressor circuits have all been put together in the boom valve manifold. When the outrigger selector pushbutton is pushed, the outrigger valve handle is activated, which routes oil to the two outrigger handvalve banks (one on each side of the unit). A relief valve inside the passenger side bank limits the entire outrigger circuit to 280 bar (4060 PSI) instead of the 300 bar (4350 PSI) of the boom relief valve. To set the 280 bar relief valve for the outrigger circuit:

WARNING Always wear safety glasses when checking or setting pressures. 1. Plug the whip hose of a 0-400 or 0-600 bar gauge (Figure 227) into the gauge port. 2. If not already done, start the truck engine and set the transmission and PTO as you would for a pumping job. 3. Locate the 280 bar relief valve (Figure 228) on the back of the outrigger valve. 4. Set the engine RPM to maximum. 5. Select “outrigger” with the outrigger pushbutton. This will route oil to the outrigger handvalves.

6. Assuming that the outriggers are folded into the travel position, activate the passenger side handvalve “jacking cylinder retract” for either the front or rear outrigger. Note! You will get an incorrect reading if you select any other outrigger function. The handles are spring loaded and will return to neutral as soon as you let go. 7. Read the pressure on the gauge. It should read 280 bar (4060 PSI). If no adjustment is needed, skip to step 4. 8. If adjustment is needed, turn the outside body of the relief valve that is located at the back of the outrigger valve. Turn in to raise pressure, turn out to lower pressure. There is no jam nut on this valve. 9. Activate the outrigger “jacking retract” handvalve and read the pressure on the gauge again. Repeat steps (8) and (9) until the gauge reads 280 bar. 4. When the pressure is correct, either go on to other pressure settings, or remove the whip hose and gauge and cap the gauge port with the attached cap. 5. Return the RPM of the truck to an idle, take the transmission and PTO out of gear, and shut off the truck, or go on to the other pressure settings as required.

Setting 15 bar pretension

CAUTION Truck engine must be at an idle while setting pretension.

To check or set pretension, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine. Plug the 0 - 40 bar gauge into the pretension check port of the Apitech handvalve (Figure 229). 2. Start the truck engine, but leave it at an idle. (Pretension adjustment is made at an idle to establish the minimum pressure setting. As RPM is increased, pressure will rise. Damage to the 0 - 40 bar gauge is possible if RPM is raised while the gauge is connected.) 3. If the pressure reads 15 bar ± 1 bar, the pressure is set correctly. If adjustment is needed, proceed to the next step. 4. Loosen the jam nut on the pretension valve. Turn the screw in to raise pressure, and out to lower pressure. When the pressure is correct, retighten the jam nut.

5. Stop the engine, and remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge. Pretension setting is complete.

Setting the agitator circuit pressure The agitator relief valve is located in the agitator forward / neutral / reverse handvalve (Figure 230). The relief valve (not completely visible in Figure 230) limits the pressure in the agitator circuit to 200 bar (2900 PSI). There is a gauge port (not visible in Figure 230) for checking or setting the pressure in this circuit. The port is located on the agitator handvalve. To check or set the agitator pressure, follow these steps: 1. Unscrew the cover from the gauge port. Plug in the 0-600 bar gauge and whip hose that came in the toolbox. 2. Start the engine, if it’s not already running.

It should read the proper accumulator system pressure. 11. If adjustment is needed, you must stop the truck engine, or a least stop the drive lines from turning, each and every time you approach the accumulator circuit hydraulic pump. Turn the screw in to increase the pressure or out to decrease pressure. Lock the jam nut when the pressure is correct. Note: The accumulator circuit hydraulic pump pressure regulator is sometimes referred to as the pressure cutoff.

Loosen the jam nut, and turn the screw clockwise to increase the pressure or counter clockwise to decrease the pressure. Tighten the jam nut when the pressure reaches the value required. 7. You will need an assistant for this step. With the engine still running, one person must go to the redundant relief valve on the emergency stop manifold (Figure 233) and back out the adjustment screw while the other person stands by the pressure gauge to let him know when the pressure reads the value shown on the schematic for accumulator redundant relief.

KVM 36X-42M (pre-1998) Pressure Settings for KVM 36X Proportional Load Sensing NOTE! NOTE:All pressure settings must be done when the hydraulic oil is at 50 to 70 degrees Celsius. Please read all instructions before attempting to check or set pressures. There is a pressure limit valve and two different relief valves in the KVM 36X boom circuit. Before checking or setting these 3 valves, you should make sure that the Delta-P setting on the pressure regulator and the Q minimum setting on the hydraulic pump are properly set. In order to help you better understand this, we will describe the functions of each valve and the hydraulic pump before attempting to set or check pressures. Refer to Illustration 1on Page- D2 for the location of each item as it is mounted on the unit. Figure 1 of this page, is called the pressure regulator. Adjusting screw (item 4) is the pressure limit function of the pressure regulator. Adjusting screw (item 3) is the Delta-P function of the regulator. The Delta-P function senses pressure on both sides of the boom handvalve, and adjusts the output flow of the hydraulic pump. Figure 2 of this page is the "normally open" relief valve. (Normally open denotes that unless the coil is energized, the relief valve will not develop any pressure). This is the valve that opens and vents your boom circuit to tank when you hit the red emergency shut off button on your remote control box or operations panel. Figure 3 of this page is the boom handvalve. (Item 10) is pointing to the relief valve located on the handvalve. It's function is to protect the handvalves from any pressure spikes that might be in the system. (Item G2) is a gauge port. Figure 4 of this page is the boom circuit hydraulic pump. This style of hydraulic pump has a variable output depending on the requirements of the boom, which is controlled by the pressure regulator described in Figure 1 (above).

Pressure Settings for KVM 36X Proportional Load Sensing 1. 1.Delta-P setting on the pressure regulator. (Figure 1, Item 3) With all boom functions in the neutral position, emergency stop buttons up, the engine at minimum RPM's (idle), the pressure that will be read on both the pretension gauge and the main pressure gauge is either Delta-P or an idle Q-minimum. To determine what indeed is creating this pressure, we must do at least ONE of the three following procedures: a. A.Back off the Q-min. screw at least 3 turns on the hydraulic pump to insure that it is only producing the amount of flow that the regulator is requiring to maintain Delta-P pressure. Now read an accurate Delta-P pressure on either the pretension gauge or the main pressure gauge. This requires that the Q-min. be re-adjusted; (refer to paragraph 2. for Q minimum setting). b. B.While observing the pretension or the main pressure gauge you increase the engine RPM by 300 RPM in 3 increments of 100 RPM each, making sure that the pressure does not increase. This will assure that you are indeed observing accurate Delta-P. If the pressure does increase, then the pressure observed is an idle Q-min. and not a true Delta-P. You should then follow the procedures in paragraph 1. A. c. C.Install a high pressure (0-600 Bar) gauge in the X port of the regulator with a "T" fitting. While operating a boom function, monitor the pressure between the main pressure gauge and the gauge at the X port of the regulator. There should be exactly 20 Bar less pressure at the X port continuously. Adjusting Delta-P: The Delta-P pressure should be 20 Bar plus or minus 1 Bar; (this is the same for KVM 32, KVM 36X, KVM 42 and KVM 52 machines). If the Delta-P pressure is incorrect, then the regulator must be adjusted accordingly. Turn the small screw (Figure 1, item 3) on the regulator inward to increase or outward to decrease the Delta-P pressure. If the DeltaP pressure cannot be adjusted to proper pressure, then the regulator is probably defective. Do not replace the regulator until the orifices in the base plate have been checked to make sure they are not obstructed or improperly sized. Refer to Figure 5 on Page - D4 for proper orifice sizes.

2. Q Minimum setting: the Q minimum stop on the hydraulic pump, (Figure 4, item 1). With all boom functions in the neutral position, emergency stop buttons up, the engine at maximum specified RPM's, the pressure on the main gauge (0-600 bar) should be:

a) . . . KVM 32 & 36 = 40 Bar; b) . . . KVM 42 = 40-45 Bar; c) . . . KVM 52 = 50-55 Bar. If the pressure is incorrect, the Q-min. screw on the hydraulic pump must be adjusted accordingly. Turn the Q-min screw inward to increase the pressure and outward to decrease the pressure.

Pressure Settings for Regulator and Releif Valves Now that we know our delta-P and Q-minimum are set correct we can check and reset the pressure limit and two relief valves. The correct pressure settings are as follows: 1. PRESSURE REGULATOR (Figure 1, item 4)310 Bar 2. NORMALLY OPEN BYPASS VALVE (Figure 2, item 2)330 Bar 3. HANDVALVE RELIEF (Figure 3, item 10)340 Bar In order to reset the valve with the highest pressure, we must first raise the pressure of the other two valves. a. A.Install a 0-600 Bar gauge in the gauge port (Figure 3, item G2) of the handvalve. b. B.To set the pressure regulator (Figure 1), loosen the lock nut (Item 4), and turn the adjusting screw inward approximately two turns. This will raise the pressure of this valve higher than 340 bar. c. C.To set the normally open bypass valve (Figure 2), loosen the lock nut (Item 2), and turn the adjusting screw inward approximately one turn. This will raise the pressure of this valve higher than 340 bar. d. D.Pressure out any boom section except main down. The pressure can now be read on the 0600 Bar gauge that you have installed on the handvalves. The gauge should read 340 Bar. If it does not, adjust the relief valve on the boom handvalves (Figure 3, item 10). After you have this relief set to 340 Bar you can lock the locknut and move on to the normally open bypass valve. e. E.While you continue to hold a function pressured out you can adjust the normally open bypass valve (Figure 2, item 2), until the pressure gauge now reads 330 Bar. After this pressure is set and the locknut is locked, proceed to the pressure regulator. f. F.While still holding a function pressured out you can now adjust the pressure regulator (Fig. 1, Item 4), until the pressure gauge reads 310 Bar. When this pressure has been set and the locknut is locked, you are finished setting the main circuit pressures on the boom.

Pressure Settings for KVM 42 (B&W Load sensing and Proportional Load Sensing NOTE! NOTE:All pressure settings must be done when the hydraulic oil is at 50 to 70 degrees Celsius. Please read all instructions before attempting to check or set pressures. There is a pressure limit valve and two different relief valves in the KVM 42 boom circuit. Before checking or setting these 3 valves, you should make sure that the Delta-P setting on the pressure regulator and the Q minimum setting on the hydraulic pump are properly set. In order to help you better understand this, we will describe the functions of each valve and the hydraulic pump before attempting to set or check pressures. Refer to Illustration 2 on Page- D8 for the location of each item as it is mounted on the unit. Figure 1 of this page, is called the pressure regulator. Adjusting screw (item 4) is the pressure limit function of the pressure regulator. Adjusting screw (item 3) is the Delta-P function of the regulator. The Delta-P function senses pressure on both sides of the boom handvalve, and adjusts the output flow of the hydraulic pump. Figure 2 of this page is the "normally open" relief valve. (Normally open denotes that unless the coil is energized, the relief valve will not develop any pressure). This is the valve that opens and vents your boom circuit to tank when you hit the red emergency shut off button on your remote control box or operations panel. Figure 3 of this page is the boom handvalve. (Item 9) designates the main pressure relief valve located on the handvalve. It's function is to protect the handvalves from any pressure spikes that might be in the system. (Item 11) designates the relief valve for the main section down. Figure 4 of this page is the boom circuit hydraulic pump. This style of hydraulic pump has a variable output depending on the requirements of the boom, which is controlled by the pressure regulator described in Figure 1 (above). As mentioned earlier before we check or adjusts settings of the pressure limit valve or the two relief valves, we must make sure the Delta-P and Qminimum settings are correct.

Pressure Settings for KVM 42LW Proportional Load Sensing 1. Delta-P setting on the pressure regulator. (Figure 1, Item 3) With all boom functions in the neutral position, emergency stop buttons up, the engine at minimum RPM's (idle), the pressure that will be read on both the pretension gauge and the main pressure gauge is either Delta-P or an idle Q-minimum. To determine what indeed is creating this pressure, we must do at least ONE of the three following procedures: a. A.Back off the Q-min. screw at least 3 turns on the hydraulic pump to insure that it is only producing the amount of flow that the regulator is requiring to maintain Delta-P pressure. Now read an accurate Delta-P pressure on either the pretension gauge or the main pressure gauge. This requires that the Q-min. be re-adjusted; (refer to paragraph 2. for Q minimum setting). b. B.While observing the pretension or the main pressure gauge you increase the engine RPM by 300 RPM in 3 increments of 100 RPM each, making sure that the pressure does not increase. This will assure that you are indeed observing accurate Delta-P. If the pressure does increase, then the pressure observed is an idle Q-min. and not a true Delta-P. You should then follow the procedures in paragraph 1. A. c. C.Install a high pressure (0-600 Bar) gauge in the X port of the regulator with a "T" fitting. While operating a boom function, monitor the pressure between the main pressure gauge and the gauge at the X port of the regulator. There should be exactly 20 Bar less pressure at the X port continuously. Adjusting Delta-P: The Delta-P pressure should be 20 Bar plus or minus 1 Bar; (this is the same for KVM 32, KVM 36X, KVM 42 and KVM 52 machines). If the Delta-P pressure is incorrect, then the regulator must be adjusted accordingly. Turn the small screw (Figure 1, item 3) on the regulator inward to increase or outward to decrease the Delta-P pressure. If the DeltaP pressure cannot be adjusted to proper pressure, then the regulator is probably defective. Do not replace the regulator until the orifices in the base plate have been checked to make sure they are not obstructed or improperly sized. Refer to Figure 5 on Page - D10 for proper orifice sizes.

2. Q Minimum setting: the Q minimum stop on the hydraulic pump, (Figure 4, item 1). With all boom functions in the neutral position, emergency stop buttons up, the engine at maximum specified RPM's, the pressure on the main gauge (0-600 bar) should be:

a) . . . KVM 32 & 36 = 40 Bar; b) . . . KVM 42 = 40-45 Bar; c) . . . KVM 52 = 50-55 Bar. If the pressure is incorrect, the Q-min. screw on the hydraulic pump must be adjusted accordingly. Turn the Q-min screw inward to increase the pressure and outward to decrease the pressure.

Pressure Settings for Regulator and Relief Valves KVM 42 Now that we know our delta-P and Q-minimum are set correct we can check and reset the pressure limit and two relief valves. The correct pressure settings are as follows:

330 Bar

In order to reset the valve with the highest pressure, we must first raise the pressure of the other two valves. a. To set the pressure regulator (Figure 1), loosen the lock nut (Item 4), and turn the adjusting screw inward approximately two turns. This will raise the pressure of this valve higher than 330 bar. b. To set the normally open bypass valve (Figure 2), loosen the lock nut (Item 2), and turn the adjusting screw inward approximately one turn. This will raise the pressure of this valve higher than 330 bar. c. Pressure out any boom section except the main down. The pressure can now be read on the 0600 Bar gauge that is near the handvalves. The gauge should read 330 Bar. If it does not, adjust the relief valve on the boom handvalves (Figure 3, item 9). After you have this relief set to 330 Bar you can lock the locknut and move on to the normally open bypass valve. d. While you continue to hold a function pressured out you can adjust the normally open bypass valve (Figure 2, item 2), until the pressure gauge now reads 320 Bar. After this pressure is set and the locknut is locked, proceed to the pressure regulator.

Pressure Settings

e. While still holding a function pressured out you can now adjust the pressure regulator (Figure 1, Item 4), until the pressure gauge reads 310 Bar on Black & White units or 290 Bar on Proportional units. When this pressure has been set and the locknut is locked, you are finished setting the main circuit pressures on the boom. f. There is also a relief valve for the main boom down function (Figure 3, item 11); (this relief valve is either located in the handvalve housing directly in front of the manual hand lever for the main section), or: (is T’d into the steel tube that comes out of the "A" port on the frontside of the main section handvalve). Before setting the downside relief valve, you must bring the boom to it’s fully retracted position. This is best accomplished with the boom swung off to the side of the truck with the outriggers fully extended. While holding the main section pressured out in the fully retracted position, you can now adjust the downside relief cartridge until you read 100 Bar on the 0-600 Bar gauge.

Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when checking or setting pressures. Be sure that the waterbox covers are installed on the waterbox. We do not recommend using the remote control box for the following procedures. Wear safety glasses when setting pressures. Position the “remote/local” switch on the main control panel to the “local” position. Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40°C – 60°C). The agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. Do not jam the paddles to force the oil over relief by stopping the movement of the agitator. To preheat the hydraulic oil using the agitator circuit, follow these instructions. 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve, and close it (Figure 238). The general location of the agitator shutoff valve is shown in Figure 239.

NOTE! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, order one using part #10004680 (valve) and #30303432 (tube). Contact the Schwing Service Department for installation instructions. If you can’t wait for a shutoff valve, you will need to remove one of the hoses from the agitator motor, and plug the hose and the open fitting with approved hydraulic dead plugs. Do not substitute other plugs,

WARNING

The main relief valve is set to very high pressure (at least 350 bar). Use the controls on the rear control panel when checking the pressure of the main relief valve, so you will be out of the way if a hose or a fitting malfunctions. Refer to Figure 248 for the location of the components used to set the concrete pump pressures. Use the following steps to set the main relief valve pressure: 1. Be sure that the waterbox covers are installed on the waterbox. We do not recommend using the remote control box for the following procedure. 2. Wear safety glasses when setting pressures. 3. Close the concrete pump shutoff and soft switch valves (Figure 242). 4. Position the “remote / local” switch on the main control panel to the “local” position. 5. Use the throttle switch on the main control panel to rev the engine up to full RPM. 6. Use the concrete pump “forward/neutral/reverse” switch to put the pump into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke only once, then the rock cylinder will retract. Oil will have no where to go except over the concrete pump main relief valve.

7. Read the pressure on the concrete pump pressure gauge located on the main control block. It should read 350 bar. Position the concrete pump switch to the off (neutral) position. If no adjustment is needed, skip to Step 11. 8. If adjustment is needed, use a 9/16 inch spanner wrench, loosen the jam nut on the main relief valve adjusting screw (Figure 242). 9. Insert a 5/32 inch allen wrench in the adjustment screw. Turn the screw in to raise pressure or out to lower the pressure. 10. Once the pressure is correct (350) bar retighten the jam nut. Tightening the nut tends to raise the pressure, so check pressure again after tightening. Verify the correct pressure setting (350 bar). 11. Open the concrete pump shutoff and soft switch valves. The unit will not stroke with theses valves closed.

Contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for information on checking or setting this valve. • Electric stroke limiter This valve is preset at the factory. Contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for information on checking or setting this valve • Load-sensing boom pressures (7 place proportional circuit) If your unit has a load-sensing proportional system, it will have different pressure adjustments than if it is equipped with a black and white boom system. The following instructions are for load-sensing proportional systems. If you have a unit equipped with a black and white boom system, contact Schwing Service Department for the correct instruction pages. In a black and white boom system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain a 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting Q-min and ∆P. The general locations of the components used to set

boom hydraulic pressures is shown in Figure 247.

NOTE! Do not adjust ∆P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from there. It was fine tuned at the factory and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary.

WARNING Entanglement hazard. Stop drive shafts before adjusting Q-min.

Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning.

4. Delta P is adjusted by the ∆P screw on the ∆P regulator (Figure 250). Loosen the jam nut, and adjust the screw inward to increase pressure or outward to decrease pressure until it is set at 20 bar (±1). Contact Schwing America’s Service Department if you are unable to adjust the pressure to specification.

Remove the gauge, and adjust ∆P until the boom is responsive and smooth. When done, the gauge (reinstalled) must read between 14 and 25 bar. The electronics in the control system can also affect how the boom operates, so if ∆P adjustment does not seem to help, reset to 20 bar and check the electrical settings. Once electrical settings are verified, you could again refine the boom action with the ∆P adjustment. CAUTION! Do not operate any functions while setting ∆P.

deltaPvlv.eps

To check or set ∆P follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine, and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the truck windshield. 2. Install a 0-40 or 0-60 bar gauge in the 0-400 bar gauge port of the manual boom handvalves. Take care not to accidently install the gauge in the 0-60 bar port (Figure 248). 3. To be sure that the pump is putting out only enough oil needed to maintain ∆P, we need to change the setting of the Q-min screw. Q-min is adjusted by a screw on the boom hydraulic pump (Figure 249). Unscrew the Q-min screw three full turns. Check that all personnel are clear of the truck, then restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. CAUTION! If you activate any boom or outrigger functions, you will damage the 0 40 bar gauge. Make sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position. Pressure can be read on the 0 - 40 bar gauge that you installed. Pressure should read 20 bar. If no adjustment is needed, simply reset the Q-min screw as described in the Check or set Q-min steps. If adjustment is needed, continue to Step 2.

If the boom does not operate smoothly at 20 bar, you must fine tune the adjustment.

Check or set Q-min

You must check Q-min pressure when the engine is at the maximum specified RPM, but you must adjust it with the engine stopped. To check or set the Q-min follow these steps: 1. If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as the first step of ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position (Figure 249). 2. Remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge from the 0 - 400 bar gauge port, and install the 0 - 600 bar gauge in its place (Figure 248). 3. Clear all personnel away from the drive lines, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). 4. Read the pressure on the 0 - 600 gauge. Pressure should be at 40 - 45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, stop the drive lines from turning, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, then continue to Set boom pressures to check the rest of the boom pressures. 5. If adjustment is needed, turn the Q-min screw in to raise the pressure (Figure 249). Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts

Pressure Settings To check the setting of the valve with the highest pressure, you must first raise the pressure of the lower two: 1. Loosen the jam nut of the high pressure adjustment screw of the ∆P regulator. Turn the screw in twoand-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure on the ∆P regulator above 350 bar. 2. Loosen the jam nut of the adjustment screw on the E-stop manifold redundant relief valve. Turn the screw in one-and-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure setting of the relief valve to above 350 bar. 3. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down by pushing or pulling the control handle. To pressure out a cylinder, retract a fully retracted cylinder or extend a fully extended cylinder. The oil is forced over the relief valve. 4. The tell tale hiss of an open relief valve should be coming from the Apitech control block relief valve now. If it isn’t, raise the setting of the other pressure devices until the hiss originates at the Apitech control block relief valve. Read the pressure on the gauge connected to the 0-400 bar gauge port on the boom hand valve block. It should read 350 bar. If pressure is correct, proceed to Step 5.

NOTE! Although the pressure specification for the Apitech relief valve is 350 bar, you may con-

tinue to use the relief valve as long as the cartridge maintains at least 330 bar. If you must replace the valve, proceed to Step 5 before using the concrete pump again, and redo this entire procedure when you have installed the new valve. If pressure on the Apitech relief valve is below 290 bar, you should not use the concrete pump until the valve is replaced. 5. Screw out the E-Stop manifold redundant relief valve adjustment screw one-and-a-half turns. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, and read the gauge. Pressure should read 320 bar. If it does not, turn the screw in to raise pressure or out to lower pressure until it is set at 320 bar. If the location of this valve causes you to be near the drive lines, be sure to stop them from turning before accessing the valve. 6. You will need a helper for this step. While pressuring out any boom cylinder (except #1 down) have your helper adjust the high pressure screw of the ∆P regulator out (lowering the pressure) until the gauge reads 290 bar. Release the pressurized function and lock the jam nut. The boom pressures are now set. If you did not get the readings specified after following the instructions, contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for advice on how to continue.

To check or set pretension, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine. Plug the 0 - 40 bar gauge into the 0-60 bar gauge port of the Apitech hand valve (Figure 252). 2. Start the truck engine, but leave it at an idle. (Pretension adjustment is made at an idle to establish the minimum pressure setting. As RPM is increased, pressure will rise. Read the pressure on the gauge. If it reads 15 bar ± 1 bar, the pressure is set correctly.

NOTE! Damage to the 0 - 40 bar gauge is possible if RPM is raised while the gauge is connected. 3. If adjustment is needed, loosen the jam nut on the pretension valve (Figure 252). Turn the screw in to raise pressure and out to lower pressure. When the pressure is correct, retighten the jam nut. 4. Stop the engine, and remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge. #1 boom down - brake valve With a seven place hand valve, the #1 down brake valve is inside the boom control block. There is not a separate relief valve for this circuit and, therefore, nothing that must be set.

All of these fittings and many, many more extremely useful items are included in the Troubleshooting Kit, part number 30308553. We highly recommend purchase of this kit. It will pay for itself many times over. You will need: - Qty 2 VS-16S locking plugs, part number 10016803 - Qty 1 GS-16S straight fitting, part number 10008088 - Qty 2 16S capnuts, part number 10001743 Be sure that one of the locking plugs and capnuts are tightened on the straight fitting and that the dead plugs are securely tightened to the hose and the open motor fitting. Locate the relief valve on the agitator hand valve. Be sure that all personnel are clear, and restart the engine. Activate the agitator hand valve by pushing or pulling the handle. This will send the oil against the high pressure plug. The oil will have nowhere to go, so it will return to the tank over the relief valve in the agitator hand valve. The pressure at which it relieves can be seen on the gauge. It should read 200-bar. If adjustment is needed, turn the outside body of the relief valve that is located at the back of the agitator hand valve. Turn in to raise pressure or turn out to lower pressure. When the pressure is set at 200-bar, stop the engine and remove the key. Open the shut off valve or remove the dead plugs and store them in a clean area or in a plastic bag or something similar to keep dirt from entering the fittings. Reattach the hose to the agitator motor fitting and tighten securely. (Torque is correct if you make one complete revolution after feeling initial resistance increase.) Remove the whip hose and pressure gauge. Replace the gauge port cover.

Check hydraulic pressures Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components.

NOTE! Hydraulic pressure settings shown in the following procedures are for a 2023 twin circuit pump kit. However, because different pump kits may be used in this unit, all pressure settings should be verified with the pressure settings shown on the applicable hydraulic schematic. The hydraulic schematics for your pump kit are in the Appendix of this manual. Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when checking or setting pressures. Be sure that the waterbox covers are installed on the waterbox. We do not recommend using the remote control box for the following procedures. Wear safety glasses when setting pressures. Position the “remote/local” switch on the rear control panel to the “local” position. Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40°C – 60°C). The agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. Do not jam the paddles to force the oil over relief by stopping the movement of the agitator. To preheat the hydraulic oil using the agitator circuit, follow these instructions. 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve, and close it (Figure 255). The general location of the agitator shutoff valve is shown in Figure 257. 2. Position the agitator lever in the forward or reverse position. The agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. 3. At idle speed (about 600 RPM), about 4.5 horsepower is being converted to heat. Position the agitator lever to the off (center) position when the temperature gauge on the rear control panel indicates 50°C. 4. Open the agitator shutoff valve or remove the plug, and reconnect the hose to the agitator motor.

Hot oil expulsion hazard. Stand away from pumpkit when checking hydraulic pressures.

W008.eps

WARNING

The main relief valve is set to very high pressure (at least 350 bar). Use the controls on the rear control panel when checking the pressure of the main relief valve, so you will be out of the way if a hose or a fitting malfunctions. Refer to Figure 256 for the location of the components used to set the concrete pump pressures. Use the following steps to set the main relief valve pressure: 1. Be sure that the waterbox covers are installed on the waterbox. We do not recommend using the remote control box for the following procedure. 2. Wear safety glasses when setting pressures. 3. Close the concrete pump shutoff and soft switch shutoff valves (Figure 257). 4. Position the “remote / local” switch on the rear control panel to the “local” position. 5. Use the throttle switch on the rear control panel to rev the engine up to full RPM. 6. Use the concrete pump “forward/neutral/reverse” switch to put the pump into the “forward” position. The unit will stroke only once, then the rock cylinder will retract. Oil will have no where to go except over the concrete pump main relief valve. 7. Read the pressure on the concrete pump pressure gauge located on the main control block. It should read 350 bar. Position the concrete pump switch to the off (neutral) position. If no adjustment is needed, skip to Step 11. 8. If adjustment is needed, use a 9/16 inch spanner wrench, loosen the jam nut on the main relief valve adjusting screw (Figure 257).

9. Insert a 5/32 inch allen wrench in the adjustment screw. Turn the screw in to raise pressure or out to lower the pressure. 10. Once the pressure is correct (350 bar) retighten the jam nut. Tightening the nut tends to raise the pressure, so check pressure again after tightening. Verify the correct pressure setting (350 bar). 11. Open the concrete pump shutoff valve and soft switch shutoff valve. The unit will not stroke with these valves closed.

To check or adjust the hydraulic pressure in the accumulator circuit, perform the following steps: 1. Stop the truck, put the key in your pocket, and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the windshield. 2. Loosen the jam nut on the pressure regulator of the accumulator hydraulic pump. Turn the screw in two-and-a-half turns. This will raise the regulator pressure above 300 bar (Figure 259).

If additional pressure adjustment is needed, locate the accumulator manifold pressure relief valve (Figure 261). Loosen the jam nut, and turn the screw in to increase pressure or out to decrease pressure. Tighten the jam nut when pressure is at 300 bar. 45s3blck.epsL

9. After the truck engine is stopped, back out the accumulator circuit hydraulic pump pressure regulator two-and-a-half-turns. This restores the pressure regulator to its original setting (Figure 74). 10. Clear all personnel from the drive line area, start the truck, and rev the engine RPM to maximum. 11. Read the pressure on the accumulator gauge. It should read 200 bar (2900 PSI). 12. If additional adjustment is needed, you must stop the truck engine each time you approach the accumulator circuit hydraulic pump (Figure 259). Adjust the accumulator pump pressure regulator screw in to increase pressure or out to decrease pressure. Lock the jam nut when pressure is correct (200 bar).

Set the outrigger pressure With a seven place hand valve, the boom/outrigger selector valve is inside the boom control block. This valve is activated when the outrigger enable push button is pushed. There is not a separate relief for this circuit and, therefore, nothing that must be set. The outrigger circuit is set to a maximum of 280-bar (4060 PSI) by the relief valve located on the passenger side outrigger hand valve assembly (Figure 262). The valve routes the oil to the two outrigger hand valve banks, one on each side of the unit. A relief valve inside the passenger side bank limits the entire outrigger circuit to 280-bar.

Turn the outside body of the relief valve that is located at the back of the passenger side outrigger hand valve (Figure 262). Turn in to raise pressure or turn out to lower pressure. 6. When the pressure on the gauge connected to the outrigger hand valve is 280-bar, release the enable push button and the outrigger hand valve. 7. Remove the whip hose and gauge from the outrigger handvalve, and replace the cap on the gauge port. • Pressure reducing valve This valve is preset at the factory.

NOTE! Do not adjust ∆P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from there. It was fine tuned at the factory and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary.

WARNING Entanglement hazard. Stop drive shafts before adjusting Q-min.

Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning.

1. Connect the whip hose of a 0–400 or 0–600 bar to the gauge port on the right side of the outrigger hand valve. 2. If it is not already done, start the truck engine and set the transmission and PTO as you would for a pumping job. 3. Set the engine RPM to maximum. 4. Push the outrigger enable pushbutton located next to the outrigger hand valve (passenger side). Hold one of the outrigger hand valve levers in the jacking-retract position. The oil coming from the pump has nowhere to go but over the outrigger relief valve.

In a black and white boom system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain a 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting Q-min and ∆P.

To check or set ∆P follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine, and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the truck windshield. 2. Install a 0-40 or 0-60 bar gauge in the 0-400 bar gauge port of the manual boom handvalves. Take care not to accidently install the gauge in the 0-60 bar port (Figure 264). 3. To be sure that the pump is putting out only enough oil needed to maintain ∆P, we need to change the setting of the Q-min screw. Q-min is adjusted by a screw on the boom hydraulic pump (Figure 265). Unscrew the Q-min screw three full turns. Check that all personnel are clear of the truck, then restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. CAUTION! If you activate any boom or outrigger functions, you will damage the 0 40 bar gauge. Make sure that all emergency stop switches are in the up (not activated) position.

If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as the first step of ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position (Figure 265). 2. Remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge from the 0 - 400 bar gauge port, and install the 0 - 600 bar gauge in its place (Figure 264). 3. Clear all personnel away from the drive lines, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons must be up (not engaged). 4. Read the pressure on the 0 - 600 gauge. Pressure should be at 40 - 45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, stop the drive lines from turning, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, then continue to Set boom pressures to check the rest of the boom pressures. 5. If adjustment is needed, turn the Q-min screw in to raise the pressure (Figure 265). Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures.

Although the pressure specification for the Apitech control block relief valve is 350 bar, you may continue to use the concrete pump as long as the relief valve cartridge maintains at least 330 bar. If pressure on the relief valve is below 290 bar, you should not use the concrete pump until the relief valve is replaced. If you need to replace the relief valve, repeat this entire procedure before using the concrete pump again. 5. Screw out the E-Stop manifold redundant relief valve adjustment screw one-and-a-half turns. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, and read the gauge. Pressure should read 330 bar. If it does not, turn the screw in to raise pressure or out to lower pressure until it is set at 330 bar. If the location of this valve causes you to be near the drive lines, be sure to stop them from turning before accessing the valve. 6. You will need a helper for this step. While pressuring out any boom cylinder (except #1 down) have your helper adjust the high pressure screw of the ∆P regulator out (lowering the pressure) until the gauge reads 300 bar. Release the pressurized function, and lock the jam nut. The boom pressures are now set. If you did not get the readings specified after following the instructions, contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999 for advice on how to continue. • Boom holding valves The boom holding valves are adjusted at the factory. Never adjust a holding valve while it is on the boom. If you suspect that a holding valve is not functioning properly contact Schwing America’s Service Department at (651) 429-0999.

15 bar pretension adjustment screw Figure 269 Pretension adjustment screw and gauge port

Set 15 bar pretension To check or set pretension, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine. Plug the 0 - 40 bar gauge into the 0-60 bar gauge port of the Apitech hand valve (Figure 269). 2. Start the truck engine, but leave it at an idle. (Pretension adjustment is made at an idle to establish the minimum pressure setting. As RPM is increased, pressure will rise. Read the pressure on the gauge. If it reads 15 bar ± 1 bar, the pressure is set correctly.

NOTE! Damage to the 0 - 40 bar gauge is possible if RPM is raised while the gauge is connected. 3. If adjustment is needed, loosen the jam nut on the pretension adjustment screw (Figure 269). Turn the screw in to raise pressure and out to lower pressure. When the pressure is correct, retighten the jam nut.

4. Stop the engine, and remove the 0 - 40 bar gauge. With a seven place hand valve, the #1 down brake valve is inside the boom control block. There is not a separate relief valve for this circuit and, therefore, nothing that must be set.

Set water pump pressure With a seven place hand valve, the water pump hydraulic control is inside the boom control block. There is not a separate relief valve for this circuit and, therefore nothing that must be set.

Set the agitator pressure The agitator circuit has a maximum pressure of 200 bar (2900 PSI), limited by the relief valve located on the back of the agitator hand valve (Figure 270). The gauge port for checking or setting the agitator pressure is located on top of the agitator hand valve.

Locate the relief valve on the back of the agitator hand valve. 6. Be sure that all personnel are clear, and restart the engine. 7. Activate the agitator hand valve by pushing or pulling the handle. This will send the oil against the high pressure plug. The oil will have nowhere to go, so it will return to the tank over the relief valve in the agitator hand valve. The pressure at which it relieves can be seen on the gauge. It should read 200-bar. 8. If adjustment is needed, turn the outside body of the relief valve that is located at the back of the agitator hand valve. Turn in to raise pressure or turn out to lower pressure (Figure 272).

KVM 42SX Setting Pressures The following pages provide the proper techniques for checking and setting hydraulic pressures of each system included on your unit.

Check all hydraulic pressures Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. The specifications for each circuit are shown on the hydraulic schematics found in the Appendix of this manual. The hydraulic schematics are the only documents in this manual that have been updated specifically for your unit, by the serial number, so in each of the following procedures you will be told to refer to the schematic for the pressure required. If you wish to order a CD ROM which explains the pressure setting procedure for a specific model (all pumpkits), call SAI Spare Parts Department at (800) 328 - 9635 and request the CD using the following part numbers: • 61/58 meter. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30365860 • 52 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30354732 • 45/47 meter. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30356770 • 42 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30355485 • 39 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30365861 • 34 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30356772 • 32 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30355486 • 31 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30365862 Preheat the hydraulic oil

Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40°− 60° C). In the past we could pressure out a function in the boom or outrigger system to create heat, but load sensing systems no longer allow maximum oil flow to be forced over relief. Because of this the agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. To preheat the hydraulic oil: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 319) and close it.

NOTE! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, order one from the Schwing Spare Parts Department using part number 10004680 (valve), and number 30303432 (tube). Contact the Service Department for installation instructions.

2. Activate the agitator. With the valve closed, the agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. At an idle (about 600 RPM), 4.5 horsepower is being converted to heat.

Pressure Settings Setting pressures on Hi-flo -6 pumpkits To set the pressure of the main relief valve on Hi-flo pumpkits, you must first disable the soft switch circuit. Simply locate the ball cock for the soft switch circuit (Figure 320) and close it by rotating the handle 90 degrees. The quarter turn shutoff valve for the concrete pump (Figure 320) will also need to be closed during this procedure.

NOTE! Main system adjustments are preset at the factory. The following procedure begins with adjustment of the main relief cartridge and pressure cutoff. If proper pressures can not be obtained through these steps, contact the Schwing Service Department for specific instructions on the adjustment of flow, horsepower, beginning of stroke regulation, and Q-min. Pressure setting procedure: Soft switch shutoff valve

Concrete pump shutoff valve

hif low brn .e ps

Figure 2 Concrete pump and Soft switch shutoff valves 1. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are in place any time you will be working in the area around the main control block. 2. Wear safety glasses when working around a concrete pump.

NOTE! It is vital that each adjustment screw be properly identified prior to making any adjustment. All screw adjustments for the system relief must be made with the pumpkit in the neutral position and adjustments for pressure cutoff must be made with the engine shut off. 3. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO in gear just as you would to pump a job.

4. If you have not already closed the soft switch shutoff valve and the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 320) do so at this time. 5. At the rear panel, select “local” control with the “local/remote” switch and turn the electric stroke limiter knob clockwise to maximum strokes per minute. 6. The main system control block pressure must be set first to properly set the pressure cutoff on both pumps. Begin by backing off the jam nut of the main relief cartridge (Figure 322) with a 9/16 inch wrench. 7. Using a 5/32 inch allen wrench, turn the adjustment screw out (counterclockwise) until you can feel no spring tension on the adjustment screw. 8. Now, turn the screw back in (clockwise) two or three full turns to give you a proper starting point and tighten the jam nut. 9. Stop the truck engine and put the key in your pocket. Adjust the pressure cutoff screw (Figure 321) on each pump, by backing off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Using a 4mm allen wrench, turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise) one full turn and tighten the jam nut. Restart the truck engine. 10. Adjust the engine RPM to maximum specification. (See decal in truck cab) 11. Pressure out the system by activating the concrete pump forward switch on the rear panel. Using the rear panel controls will allow you to read the concrete pump main system pressure gauge, near the e-stop manifold, from a safe distance.

NOTE! Because you turned out the pressure relief cartridge in step 7, the system pressure should read low at this time. If it does not and the gauge spikes to 320 bar or more, disengage the pump immediately. Turn the relief cartridge out (counterclockwise) more. For safety, it is important to adjust the pressure up from below the specified target pressure rather than down from a pressure which exceeds the target. Continue this procedure until the main system pressure gauge reads lower than the specified target. 12. To increase the pressure put the pump in the neutral position and adjust the relief cartridge by turning it in (clockwise). When increasing the pressure, the adjustments should be made in quarter turn increments. If you make adjustments

to increase the pressure but the pressure does not come up, you are probably reading the pressure cutoff of the pumps, if so proceed to the next step otherwise skip to step 15.Turn the relief cartridge adjustment screw back out (counterclockwise) until you can no longer see a pressure drop and tighten the jam nut. 13. Stop the truck engine, put the key in your pocket. 14. Go to the pressure cutoff screw on both hydraulic pumps (Figure 321) and back off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Turn the adjustment screws in with a 4mm allen wrench one or two more turns, restart the engine and check the pressure again. Repeat this procedure until the main system relief can be set to the target pressure. 15. When the proper main relief pressure is achieved, pressure cutoff can be set. Shut off the engine, put the key in your pocket and install 0-600 bar gauges with whip hoses to the “M1” gauge ports on the bottom of the two hydraulic pumps (Figure 321). You must be able to read both gauges simultaneously to ensure that one pump is not more dominant than the other.

NOTE! The gauges in the M1 ports will read considerably less than the cutoff pressure of the pump. On a -6 (190/130 pump combination) the 190 will usually read 85 to 90 bar while the 130 reads about 110 bar. They could read the same however, at approximately 110 bar, but the 190 must never read higher than the 130. The actual cutoff pressure will be read on the concrete pump main system pressure gauge near the e-stop manifold. 16. Activate concrete pump forward to pressure out the pump and read the pressure on the two gauges in the “M1” ports. 17. Always stop the truck engine and put the key in your pocket before making any adjustment on the hydraulic pump. If the cutoff on one pump is set higher than the other, that pump will be more dominant. The pressure gauge in the M1 port of the dominant pump will however, read lower than the other. To equalize the two pumps you must either adjust the cutoff screw in (clockwise) to increase the pressure of the pump showing the higher reading or adjust the cutoff screw of the dominant pump showing the lower reading out

(counterclockwise) to reduce the pressure. These adjustments must be made until the two gauges in the M1 ports are reading approximately the same. 18. When you have achieved the same pressure on the M1 port gauges, you can begin to adjust the pressure cutoff screws in or out simultaneously until you achieve the desired pressure setting of 350 bar (again, confirm the pressure specification with the hydraulic schematic). After pressure cutoff is set, return the pump to neutral, bring engine RPM to idle, open the soft switch quarter turn valve, and either proceed to other pressure settings or take the transmission and PTO out of gear and shut off the truck.

Setting the soft switch relief pressure

Load-sensing boom hydraulic controls

First, open the soft switch quarter turn valve (Figure 322, right) that you closed in the previous procedure. The rest of the unit should still be set up as if you were going to check the main relief valve pressure (concrete pump shutoff valve still closed). When you put the pump in forward now, the main concrete pump pressure gauge should read the pressure shown on the schematic for soft switch. If adjustment is needed, loosen the soft switch relief valve jam nut (Figure 322, right) with a 9/16 open end wrench, and use a 5/32 allen wrench to adjust the pressure. Turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise) to raise the pressure or out (counter clockwise) to lower the pressure. When you attain the required pressure, tighten the jam nut while holding the allen wrench to keep the pressure from rising. Be sure to open the concrete pump shutoff valve on the side of the brain (Figure 322, left) when you are finished. The unit will not stroke with this valve closed.

This unit is equipped with a load-sensing, proportional boom hydraulic system. In a black-and-white system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting ∆P and Q-min.

NOTE! Any time you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40°–60° C). Instructions on heating the hydraulic oil are found in the first step of this “checking hydraulic pressures” segment. Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when setting pressures.

WARNING Entanglement hazard. Stop drive shafts before adjusting Delta P on A11VO pump.

Figure 5 (Left) The 0–60 bar gauge port is located at the top of the boom control block, and the 0-600 bar port is at the bottom. (Right) A 0–600 bar gauge port is located on the E-stop manifold.

Do not adjust ∆P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from that point. The pressure was fine tuned at the factory and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary. 1. Start by turning off the engine and putting the key in your pocket; then place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the windshield of the truck. 2. Install a 0-100 bar gauge in the high pressure test port at the bottom of the boom control block (Figure 279).

NOTE! Do not activate any boom/outrigger functions or release any e-stops with a low pressure gauge attached to a high pressure port. 3. Delta P is adjusted on the pressure regulator (Figure 307, top) if your unit has an A7VO pump or (Figure 307, bottom) if your unit has an A11VO boom pump. When all personnel are clear of the truck, restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. ∆P pressure should read 17 bar, which is the standard starting point. 4. There are two adjustment screws on the pressure regulator (Figure 307, top) for A7VO pumps. The smaller screw is used in this procedure to adjust ∆P. On the A11VO pumps there is only one ∆P screw (Figure 307, bottom). 5. If adjustment is required, loosen the jam nut, and adjust the screw inward to increase pressure or outward to decrease pressure until it is set at 20

bar. After achieving proper ∆P, tighten the jam nut and bring the engine RPM up. If the pressure gauge continues to read 20 bar, you are reading the true ∆P pressure and may move on to setting the Qmin. If the pressure rises with the RPM, however, you may be reading the Q-min pressure instead of true ∆P. If that happens, stop the engine, put the key in your pocket, and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the windshield of the truck before proceeding.

If pressure cannot be set correctly, there is a problem either with the orifices in the base of the regulator or with the regulator itself. Contact the Schwing Service Department to determine how to continue. If the boom does not run smoothly at 17 bar, you must fine tune the adjustment. Remove the gauge, and turn the ∆P adjustment screw until the boom is responsive and smooth. After adjusting, the gauge (reinstalled) must read between 14-25 bar. The electronics in the control system can also affect how the boom operates, so if ∆P adjustment does not seem to help, reset to 17 bar and check the electrical settings. Once electrical settings are verified, you could again try to refine the boom action with the ∆P adjustment.

NOTE! The pressure regulator (Figure 326) is usually mounted on the inside of the subframe, near the cab end of the differential cylinders.

6. Unscrew the Q-min screw (Figure 325) three full turns. This step will help ensure that the pump produces only the amount of flow needed to maintain ∆P pressure. Once all personnel are clear of the truck, restart the engine, engage the pumps, and recheck at an idle. Pressure should now read 17 bar. If it does not, go back and adjust ∆P until it does.

SERVICE TRAINING

Setting Q-min Check Q-min when the engine is at maximum specified RPM. You must not adjust Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped or, at least, the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. 1. If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as part of the ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position. 2. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). Clear away all personnel, start the truck engine, engage the pumps and bring engine RPM to max. Read the pressure at the 0–600 bar main boom gauge port (Figure 327) with a 0-100 bar gauge. Pressure should be at 30 bar. If no adjustment is needed, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight; then continue to set the rest of the boom and outrigger pressures. If adjustment is needed, continue to the next step. 3. Turn the Q-min screw (Figure 325) in to raise the pressure. Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures; then recheck ∆P to make sure that it hasn’t changed during the Q-min adjustment.

Now adjust pressure, which is read at the main boom gauge port, to the setting found on the schematic by turning the boom pressure relief cartridge in, or clockwise, using no more than 1/4 turn increments. 7. When desired pressure is achieved, lock down the jam nut.

Setting boom pressures Now that ∆P and Q-min are set, you can remove the 0100 bar pressure gauge and proceed to check and adjust the main boom pressures. 1. Loosen jam nut of the boom pressure relief cartridge (Figure 327) with a 30mm open end wrench. 2. Turn the adjustment cartridge clockwise all the way in with a 32mm wrench. 3. Loosen the jam nut on the pressure relief screw of the regulator (Figure 326) or the pressure cut-off (Figure 325), and tighten the screw all the way down.

After the boom circuit is properly set, you can set the outrigger pressure. Find the relief cartridge located on the front of the passenger side outrigger control valve (Figure 312).

Main boom pressure relief cartridge

9. The next pressure setting is the regulator pressure. Locate the regulator adjustment screw (Figure 325) or pressure cut-off screw (Figure 326). Back off the jam nut, and turn the screw counterclockwise until you achieve the pressure shown on the schematic; then lock the jam nut. 10. The final boom pressure setting is the #1 boom rod side relief setting. This relief cartridge is in close proximity to the main boom relief (Figure 328), so be sure to locate the proper adjustment. This procedure should be performed with the outriggers extended and the boom unfolded over the cab. Disconnect all gauges from gauge ports prior to operating any boom or outrigger functions. Bring section #1 all the way down until the cylinder bottoms out. Install a 0-600 bar gauge in the main boom gauge port of the e-stop manifold (Figure 327), and activate boom #1 down. The pressure should read the setting shown on the schematic. If adjustment is required, back off the jam nut and turn the relief cartridge in or out as required until the desired pressure is achieved; then lock down the jam nut.

Tipping hazard. Never set outrigger pressures with the boom unfolded. Pressure setting procedure requires retraction of an outrigger jacking cylinder.

1. Attach 0-600 bar whip gauge to the gauge port (Figure 312) below the outrigger valve bank. 2. Push the outrigger enable button. 3. Activate an outrigger jacking cylinder to retract. By retracting a fully retracted cylinder, the oil coming from the pump has nowhere to go but over the relief valve. You cannot use an extension or slewing cylinder because they have secondary relief functions (nonadjustable) built into the valve. While holding the handle to retract, read the pressure gauge. 4. The pressure should read the bar value shown on the hydraulic schematic. Adjust by loosening the jam nut with a 9/16” open end wrench and turning the cartridge (Figure 312) in or out with 5/32 allen wrench. When the proper pressure is achieved, let go of the handle and release the outrigger enable button. testport.eps

WARNING Entanglement hazard. Stop drive shafts before adjusting the accumulator pump pressure regulator.

8. After the truck engine is stopped, go back to the accumulator circuit hydraulic pump pressure regulator (Figure 232), and turn the screw back out two-and-one-half turns. This restores it to its original setting. 9. Clear all personnel from the drive line area, start the truck, and bring the engine RPM up to maximum. 10. Read the pressure on the accumulator gauge. It should read the proper accumulator system pressure. 11. If adjustment is needed, you must stop the truck engine, or a least stop the drive lines from turning, each and every time you approach the accumulator circuit hydraulic pump. Turn the screw in to increase the pressure or out to decrease pressure. Lock the jam nut when the pressure is correct.

NOTE! The accumulator circuit hydraulic pump pressure regulator is referred to as the pressure cut-off. Figure 18 Accumulator manifold pressure relief cartridge 6. Locate the accumulator manifold pressure relief cartridge (Figure 235). Loosen the jam nut, and turn the screw clockwise to increase the pressure or counterclockwise to decrease the pressure. Tighten the jam nut when the pressure reaches the value required. 7. You will need an assistant for this step. With the engine still running, one person must go to the redundant relief valve on the emergency stop manifold (Figure 233) and back out the adjustment

Check for bolt tightness, cracks, and other abnormalities.

Check hydraulic pressures Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperature (40°–60°C). The specifications for all circuits are shown on the hydraulic schematics in the appendix of this manual.

Preheat the hydraulic oil Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40°– 60°C). Because the system is load-sensing, the boom circuit cannot be used to heat the hydraulic oil. The agitator circuit must be used instead. To preheat the hydraulic oil using the agitator circuit, follow these instructions:

1. Place a 4-by-4 in front of the agitator paddle. 2. Turn on the agitator. The agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. At an idle (about 600 RPM), you are converting about 4.5 horsepower to heat, which is a good-sized heater. Shut off the concrete pump when the oil shows 40°C on the temperature gauge of the operator’s panel.

Setting concrete pump pressure (singlecircuit units) Schwing single-circuit pumpkits are designed to be operated at a maximum pressure of 300 bar (4350 PSI). The pressure in the system is controlled by the main relief valve on the forward end (toward the truck cab) of the main control block (Figure 274).

If no adjustment is needed, skip to step (n). 9. Using a 13-mm spanner wrench, loosen the jam nut on the relief valve adjusting screw (Figure 274). 10. Turn the knob on the relief valve to adjust the pressure. Screw the handle in to raise pressure, and out to lower pressure. 11. Retighten the jam nut. Tightening the nut tends to raise the pressure setting. If the rise in pressure becomes a problem, hold the knob while tightening the jam nut.

12. Put the concrete pump into the “forward” position again. The machine will not stroke this time, but it will high-pressure again. Read the pressure on the gauge. If more adjustment is needed, return the pump to “neutral,” then repeat steps (i) through (l) until the pressure is correct. Note! If you cannot adjust the pressure up to specification, you have a problem. In this case, unscrew the adjustment handle several turns so that your pressure is not too high when you find the problem. Contact Schwing America’s Service Department for advice on how to continue. 13. Return the pump to the “neutral” position. 14. Open the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 277).

Setting boom circuit pressures Note! Whenever you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40°–60°C). Instructions on preheating the hydraulic oil for this procedure are in section • on page 6-243. Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when setting pressures.

Figure 283

Load-sensing boom hydraulic controls This unit is equipped with a load-sensing, proportional boom hydraulic system. In a black-and-white system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed is controlled by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil ensures that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a loadsensing system, begin by setting Q-min and ∆P (Figure 278).

Setting ∆P You must not adjust Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. To check or set ∆P, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the windshield of the truck.

2. Install a 0–40 bar gauge in the pressure check port of the boom handvalve. Take care not to accidently install the gauge in the pretension check port (Figure 279).

each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures.

Setting Q-min You must check Q-min pressure when the engine is at the maximum specified RPM, but you must adjust it with the engine stopped. 1. If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as the first step of ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position (see Figure 280). 2. Remove the 0–40 bar gauge from the pressure check port, and install the 0–600 bar gauge in its place. 3. Clear all personnel away from the drive lines, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). Read the pressure on the 0– 600 bar gauge. Pressure should be at 40–45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, stop the drivelines, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, then continue to paragraph to check the rest of the boom and outrigger pressures. If adjustment is needed, continue to step (4). 4. Turn the Q-min screw in to raise the pressure (see Figure 280). Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning

Figure 284 Apitech boom control block relief To check the setting of the valve with the highest pressure, you must first raise the pressure of the lower two: 1. Loosen the jam nut of the high-pressure adjustment screw of the ∆P regulator (see Figure 281). Turn the screw in two-and-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure on the regulator above 350 bar. 2. Loosen the jam nut of the adjustment screw of the redundant relief valve in the emergency stop manifold (see Figure 283). Turn the screw in oneand-a-half turns. This will raise the pressure on the relief valve to above 350 bar. 3. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down by pushing or pulling the control handle. To pressure out a cylinder, retract a fully retracted cylinder or extend a fully extended cylinder. The oil is forced over the relief valve. The telltale hiss of an open relief valve should be coming from the Apitech control block relief valve now. If it isn’t, raise the setting of the other pressure devices until the hiss originates at the Apitech control block relief valve. Read the pressure on the gauge. It should read 350 bar. If pressure is correct, proceed to step (4).

NOTE! Although the pressure specification for the Apitech relief valve is 350 bar, you may continue to use the relief valve as long as the cartridge maintains at least 330 bar. If you must replace the valve, proceed to step (4) before using the machine again, and redo this entire procedure when you have installed the new valve. If pressure on the Apitech relief valve is below 290 bar, you should not use the machine until the valve is replaced. 4. Screw out the redundant relief valve adjustment screw (see Figure 283) one-and-a-half turns. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, and read the gauge. Pressure should read 320 bar. If does not, turn the screw in to raise pressure, or out to lower pressure until it is at 320 bar. If the location of this valve causes you to be near the drivelines, be sure to stop them from turning before accessing the valve. 5. You will need a helper for this step. While pressuring out any boom cylinder except #1 down, have your helper adjust the high-pressure screw of the ∆P regulator out (lowering the pressure) until the gauge reads 290 bar (see Figure 281). Release the pressurized function and lock the jam nut. The boom pressures are now set. If you did not get the

2. Stop the truck engine. Plug the 0–40 bar gauge into the pretension gauge port of the Apitech handvalve (Figure 285). 3. Start the truck engine, but leave it at an idle. Read the pressure on the gauge. If it reads 15 bar ± 1 bar, the pressure is set correctly. If the pressure is not set correctly, continue to point (4.)

CAUTION Truck engine must be at idle when pretension is set.

4. Loosen the jam nut on the pretension valve. Turn the screw in to raise pressure, and out to lower pressure. When the pressure is correct, retighten the jam nut (Figure 285).

The agitator will not be able to turn, and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. At an idle (about 600 RPM), about 4.5 horsepower is being converted to heat. Shut off the concrete pump when the oil temperature gauge on the operator’s panel shows 40°C.

Setting concrete pump pressure (singlecircuit units)

Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperature (40°– 60°C). The agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. To preheat the hydraulic oil using the agitator circuit, follow these instructions: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve and close it.

Schwing single-circuit pumpkits are designed to be operated at a maximum pressure of 300 bar (4350 PSI). The pressure in the system is controlled by the main relief valve on the forward end (toward the truck cab) of the main control block (Figure 300).

Turn the knob on the relief valve to adjust the pressure. Screw the handle in to raise pressure, and out to lower pressure. 11. Retighten the jam nut. Tightening the nut tends to raise the pressure setting. If the rise in pressure becomes a problem, hold the knob while tightening the jam nut. 12. Put the concrete pump into the “forward” position again. The machine will not stroke this time, but it will high-pressure again. Read the pressure on the gauge. If more adjustment is needed, return the pump to “neutral,” then repeat steps (9) through (11) until the pressure is correct. IMPORTANT! If you cannot adjust the pressure up to specification, you have a problem. In this case, unscrew the adjustment handle several turns so that your pressure is not too high when you find the problem. Contact Schwing America’s Service Department for advice on how to continue. 13. Return the pump to the “neutral” position.

Setting boom circuit pressures NOTE! Any time you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40°–60° C). Instructions on heating the hydraulic oil for this procedure are found on page 6-243. Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when setting pressures.

Load-sensing boom hydraulic controls This unit is equipped with a load-sensing, proportional boom hydraulic system. In a black-and-white system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than what the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”).

Setting ∆P You must not adjust Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. To check or set ∆P, follow these steps: 1. Stop the truck engine, put the key in your pocket, and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the windshield of the truck. 2. Install a 0-600 bar gauge and a 0-40 bar gauge in the boom control hand valve (Figure 305).

5. You will need a helper for this step. Pressure out any boom cylinder except #1 down, as described in (3) above. Read the gauge while your helper turns the adjustment screw of the normally open bypass valve out (lowering the pressure). Continue adjusting until the pressure reads 320 bar. Lock the jam nut before proceeding. 6. While pressuring out any boom cylinder except #1 down, have your helper turn the high-pressure adjustment screw of the pressure regulator out (lowering the pressure) until the gauge reads 290 bar. Lock the jam nut. The boom pressures are now set. If you did not get the readings specified after following the instructions, contact Schwing’s Service Department for advice on how to continue.

Set the #1 down side pressure Because gravity pulls the boom down, high pressure is not needed to bring section #1 down. Allowing high pressure to be available leaves open the possibility of an inattentive operator causing damage to the boom or

the A-frame when the boom is being folded into the transport position. To prevent this, there is a secondary relief valve that regulates only the pressure on the #1 retract function (Figure 311).

No position can allow the boom to do this without hitting something unless the boom is unfolded. Unfold sections #2, #3, and #4 away from section #1. 3. Slew the boom to a position that will allow section #1 to come all the way down without hitting anything, then bring section #1 down. 4. When the #1 cylinders have completely bottomed out, the oil coming from the pump will have nowhere to go except over the relief valve. Read the gauge; it should say 100 bar. (Although pressure is specified as 80 bar, the gauge will read 100 bar because of the 20 bar ∆P that we set earlier.) If no adjustment is needed, skip to step (6). If adjustment is needed, proceed to step (5). 5. Loosen the jam nut on the down side relief cartridge. Adjust the pressure by turning the screw in to increase pressure, or out to decrease pressure. When the gauge reads 100 bar, retighten the jam nut. 6. Fold up the boom, stow the outriggers, and refasten the tie-down strap, or move on to other maintenance procedures.

7. Stop the truck engine. Remove the gauges from the boom control block. The job is now complete.

Setting outrigger pressure After the boom circuit is properly set, you can set the outrigger pressure. Find the relief valve on the back side of the passenger side outrigger control bank relief valve (Figure 312).

Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. The specifications for each circuit are shown on the hydraulic schematics found in the Appendix of this manual. The hydraulic schematics are the only documents in this manual that have been updated specifically for your unit, by the serial number, so in each of the following procedures you will be told to refer to the schematic for the pressure required. • Preheat the hydraulic oil Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40°− 60° C). In the past we could pressure out a function in the boom or outrigger system to create heat, but load sensing systems no longer allow maximum oil flow to be forced over relief. Because of this the agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. To preheat the hydraulic oil: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 319) and close it. NOTE! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, order one from the Schwing Spare Parts Department using part number 10004680 (valve), and number 30303432 (tube). Contact the Service Department for installation instructions. 2. Activate the agitator. With the valve closed the agitator will not be able to turn and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. At an idle (about 600 RPM), 4.5 horsepower is being converted to heat.



 Figure 319 Agitator shutoff valve 3. When the oil temperature gauge shows 50˚C, open the shutoff valve.

Setting pressures on Hi-flo -6 pumpkits a. To set the pressure of the main relief valve on Hi-flo pumpkits, you must first disable the soft switch circuit. Simply locate the ball cock for the soft switch circuit (Figure 320) and close it by rotating the handle 90 degrees. b. The quarter turn shutoff valve for the concrete pump (Figure 320) will also need to be closed during this procedure. Note: Main system adjustments are preset at the factory. The following procedure begins with adjustment of the main relief cartridge and pressure cutoff. If proper pressures can not be obtained through these steps, contact the Schwing Service Department for specific instructions on the adjustment of flow, horsepower, beginning of stroke regulation and Q-min.

Figure 320 Concrete pump and Soft switch shutoff valves 1. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are in place any time you will be working in the area around the main control block. 2. Wear safety glasses when working around a concrete pump. Note! It is vital that each adjustment screw be properly identified prior to making any adjustment. All screw adjustments for the system relief must be made with the pumpkit in the neutral position and adjustments for pressure cutoff must be made with the engine shut off. 3. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO in gear just as you would to pump a job. 4. If you have not already closed the soft switch shutoff valve and the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 320) do so at this time. 5. At the rear panel, select “local” control with the “local/remote” switch and turn the electric stroke limiter knob clockwise to maximum strokes per minute. 6. The main system control block pressure must be set first to properly set the pressure cutoff on both pumps. Begin by backing off the jam nut of the main relief cartridge (Figure 322) with a 9/16 inch wrench. 7. Using a 5/32 inch allen wrench, turn the adjustment screw out (counterclockwise) until you can feel no spring tension on the adjustment screw. 8. Now, turn the screw back in (clockwise) two or three full turns to give you a proper starting point and tighten the jam nut. 9. Stop the truck engine and put the key in your pocket. Adjust the pressure cutoff screw (Figure 321) on each pump, by backing off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Using a 4mm allen wrench,

Note: Because you turned out the pressure relief cartridge in step 7, the system pressure should read low at this time. If it does not and the gauge spikes to 320 bar or more, disengage the pump immediately. Turn the relief cartridge out (counterclockwise) more. For safety, it is important to adjust the pressure up from below the specified target pressure rather than down from a pressure which exceeds the target. Continue this procedure until the main system pressure gauge reads lower than the specified target. 12. To increase the pressure put the pump in the neutral position and adjust the relief cartridge by turning it in (clockwise). When increasing the pressure, the adjustments should be made in quarter turn increments. If you make adjustments to increase the pressure but the pressure does not come up, you are probably reading the pressure cutoff of the pumps, if so proceed to the next step otherwise skip to step 15.Turn the relief cartridge adjustment screw back out (counterclockwise) until you can no longer see a pressure drop and tighten the jam nut. 13. Stop the truck engine, put the key in your pocket. 14. Go to the pressure cutoff screw on both hydraulic pumps (Figure 321) and back off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Turn the adjustment screws in with a 4mm allen wrench one or two more turns, restart the engine and check the pressure again. Repeat this procedure until the main system relief can be set to the target pressure. 15. When the proper main relief pressure is achieved, pressure cutoff can be set. Shut off the engine, put the key in your pocket and install 0-600 bar gauges with whip hoses to the “M1” gauge ports on the bottom of the two hydraulic pumps (Figure 321). You must be able to read both gauges simultaneously to ensure that one pump is not more dominant than the other.

PRINT

HOME

SERVICE TRAINING

Note: The gauges in the M1 ports will read considerably less than the cutoff pressure of the pump. On a -6 (190/130 pump combination) the 190 will usually read 85 to 90 bar while the 130 reads about 110 bar. They could read the same however, at approximately 110 bar, but the 190 must never read higher than the 130. The actual cutoff pressure will be read on the concrete pump main system pressure gauge near the e-stop manifold. 16. Activate concrete pump forward to pressure out the pump and read the pressure on the two gauges in the “M1” ports. 17. Always stop the truck engine and put the key in your pocket before making any adjustment on the hydraulic pump. If the cutoff on one pump is set higher than the other, that pump will be more dominant. The pressure gauge in the M1 port of the dominant pump will however, read lower than the other. To equalize the two pumps you must either adjust the cutoff screw in (clockwise) to increase the pressure of the pump showing the higher reading or adjust the cutoff screw of the dominant pump showing the lower reading out (counterclockwise) to reduce the pressure. These adjustments must be made until the two gauges in the M1 ports are reading approximately the same. 18. When you have achieved the same pressure on the M1 port gauges, you can begin to adjust the pressure cutoff screws in or out simultaneously until you achieve the desired pressure setting of 350 bar (again, confirm the pressure specification with the hydraulic schematic).

Setting the soft switch relief pressure

Load-sensing boom hydraulic controls

First, open the soft switch quarter turn valve (Figure 322 right) that you closed in the previous procedure. The rest of the unit should still be set up as if you were going to check the main relief valve pressure (concrete pump shutoff valve still closed). When you put the pump in forward now, the main concrete pump pressure gauge should read the pressure shown on the schematic for soft switch. If adjustment is needed, loosen soft switch relief valve jam nut (Figure 322 right) with a 9/16 open end wrench, and use a 5/32 allen wrench to adjust the pressure. Turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise) to raise the pressure or out (counter clockwise), to lower the pressure. When you attain the required pressure, tighten the jam nut while holding the allen wrench to keep the pressure from rising. Be sure to open the concrete pump shutoff valve on the side of the brain (Figure 322 left) when you are finished. The unit will not stroke with this valve closed.

This unit is equipped with a load-sensing, proportional boom hydraulic system. In a black-and-white system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting ∆P and Q-min. Note: The illustration in Figure 323 shows a gauge port in the center of the main control block. Your main concrete pump pressure gauge should be plumbed to that port.

Note! Any time you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40°–60° C). Instructions on heating the hydraulic oil are found in the first step of this “checking hydraulic pressures” segment. Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when setting pressures.

WARNING Entanglement hazard. Stop drive shafts before adjusting Delta P on A11VO pump.

Figure 323 (Left) The 0–60 bar gauge port is located at the top of the boom control block, and the 0-600 bar port is at the bottom. (Right) A 0–600 bar gauge port is located on the E-stop manifold.

Note! Do not adjust ∆P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from that point. The pressure was fine tuned at the factory and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary. 1. Start by turning off the engine and putting the key in your pocket; then place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the windshield of the truck. 2. Install a 0-100 bar gauge in the high pressure test port at the bottom of the boom control block (Figure 323). NOTE! Do not activate any boom/ outrigger functions or release any e-stops with a low pressure gauge attached to a high pressure port. 3. Delta P is adjusted on the pressure regulator (Figure 324 top) if your unit has an A7VO pump or (Figure 324 bottom) if your unit has an A11VO boom pump. When all personnel are clear of the truck, restart the engine, engage the pumps, and leave the engine at an idle. ∆P pressure should read 20 bar, which is the standard starting point. 4. There are two adjustment screws on the pressure regulator (Figure 324 top) for A7VO pumps. The smaller screw is used in this procedure to adjust ∆P. On the A11VO pumps there is only one ∆P screw (Figure 307 bottom).

5. If adjustment is required, loosen the jam nut, and adjust the screw inward to increase pressure or outward to decrease pressure until it is set at 20 bar. After achieving proper ∆P, tighten the jam nut and bring the engine RPM up. If the pressure gauge continues to read 20 bar, you are reading the true ∆P pressure and may move on to setting the Qmin. If the pressure rises with the RPM however, you may be reading the Q-min pressure instead of true ∆P. If that happens, stop the engine, put the key in your pocket, and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the windshield of the truck before proceeding .

If pressure cannot be set correctly, there is a problem either with the orifices in the base of the regulator or with the regulator itself. Contact the Schwing Service Department to determine how to continue. Note: If the boom does not run smoothly at 20 bar, you must fine tune the adjustment. Remove the gauge, and turn the ∆P adjustment screw until the boom is responsive and smooth. After adjusting, the gauge (reinstalled) must read between 14-25 bar. The electronics in the control system can also affect how the boom operates, so if ∆P adjustment does not seem to help, reset to 20 bar and check the electrical settings. Once electrical settings are verified, you could again try to refine the boom action with the ∆P adjustment. Note: The pressure regulator (Figure 326) is usually mounted on the inside of the subframe, near the cab end of the differential cylinders.

6. Unscrew the Q-min screw (Figure 325) three full turns. This step will help ensure that the pump produces only the amount of flow needed to maintain ∆P pressure. Once all personnel are clear of the truck, restart the engine, engage the pumps, and recheck at an idle. Pressure should now read 20 bar. If it does not, go back and adjust ∆P until it does.

Setting Q-min Check Q-min when the engine is at maximum specified RPM. You must not adjust Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. 1. If you unscrewed the Q-min screw as part of the ∆P adjustment, begin by returning the screw to its original position. 2. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). Clear away all personnel, start the truck engine, engage the pumps and bring engine RPM to max. Read the pressure at the 0–600 bar main boom gauge port (Figure 327) with a 0-100 bar gauge. Pressure should be at 40–45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, then continue to set the rest of the boom and outrigger pressures. If adjustment is needed, continue to the next step. 3. Turn the Q-min screw (Figure 325) in to raise the pressure. Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures, then recheck ∆P to make sure that it hasn’t changed during the Q-min adjustment. Note: If you don’t have a 0-100 bar gauge you can order one from Schwing Spare Parts Department at (800) 328-9635, part # 10004659.

Setting boom pressures Now that ∆P and Q-min are set, you can remove the 0100 bar pressure gauge and proceed to check and adjust the main boom pressures. 1. Loosen jam nut of the boom pressure relief cartridge (Figure 327) with a 30mm open end wrench. 2. Turn the adjustment cartridge clockwise all the way in with a 32mm wrench. 3. Loosen the jam nut on the pressure relief screw of the regulator (Figure 326) or the pressure cut-off (Figure 325), and tighten the screw all the way down. 4.

5. Identify the main boom pressure relief cartridge on the boom control block (Figure 328) and loosen the jam nut. Then unscrew the adjustment two full turns. 6. Take engine RPM to full throttle and activate boom retract for any boom section except #1. 7. Now adjust pressure, which is read at the main boom gauge port, to the setting found on the schematic by turning the boom pressure relief cartridge in, or clockwise, using no more than 1/4 turn increments. 8. When desired pressure is achieved, lock down the jam nut.

Pressure Settings Setting outrigger pressure mainrlf.eps

After the boom circuit is properly set, you can set the outrigger pressure. Find the relief cartridge located on the front of the passenger side outrigger control valve (Figure 312).

Figure 328 Main boom pressure adjustment and piston side relief 10. The next pressure setting is the regulator pressure. Locate the regulator adjustment screw (Figure 325) or pressure cut-off screw (Figure 326). Back off the jam nut, and turn the screw counter clockwise until you achieve the pressure shown on the schematic; then lock the jam nut. 11. The final boom pressure setting is the #1 boom piston side relief setting. This relief cartridge is in close proximity to the main boom relief (Figure 328), so be sure to locate the proper adjustment. This procedure should be performed with the outriggers extended and the boom unfolded over the cab. Disconnect all gauges from gauge ports prior to operating any boom or outrigger functions. Bring section #1 all the way down until the cylinder bottoms out. Install a 0-600 bar gauge in the main boom gauge port of the e-stop manifold (Figure 327), and activate boom #1 down. The pressure should read the setting shown on the schematic. If adjustment is required, back off the jam nut and turn the relief cartridge in or out as required until the desired pressure is achieved; then lock down the jam nut.

Tipping hazard. Never set outrigger pressures with the boom unfolded. Pressure setting procedure requires retraction of an outrigger jacking cylinder.

WARNING

1. Attach 0-600 bar whip gauge to the gauge port (Figure 312) below the outrigger valve bank. 2. Push the outrigger enable button. 3. Activate an outrigger jacking cylinder to retract. By retracting a fully retracted cylinder, the oil coming from the pump has nowhere to go but over the relief valve. You cannot use an extension or slewing cylinder because they have secondary relief functions (nonadjustable) built into the valve. While holding the handle to retract, read the pressure gauge. 4. The pressure should read the bar value shown on the hydraulic schematic. Adjust by loosening the jam nut with a 9/16” open end wrench and turning the cartridge (Figure 329) in or out with 5/32 allen wrench. When the proper pressure is achieved, let go of the handle and release the outrigger enable button. testport.eps

The relief cartridge is located on the back side of the agitator manual control handle (Figure 331). The cartridge is adjustable with just an 19mm open end wrench. 1. Plug the 0–600 bar whip gauge into the gauge port (Figure 330) for checking or setting agitator pressure. 2. Locate the agitator shutoff (Figure 331) valve and close it. If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, order one from the Schwing Spare Parts Department using part numbers 10004680 (valve) and 30303432 (tube). Contact the Service Department for installation instructions, or if you can’t wait for a shutoff valve, you will need to remove one of the hoses from the agitator motor and plug the hose and open fitting with approved hydraulic dead plugs (Figure 332). NOTE! Do not jam the paddles to force the oil over relief by stopping the movement of the agitator.

Setting Pressures The following pages provide the proper techniques for checking and setting hydraulic pressures of each system included on your unit.

Check all hydraulic pressures. Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. The specifications for each circuit are shown on the hydraulic schematics found in the Appendix of this manual. The hydraulic schematics are the only documents in this manual that have been updated specifically for your unit, by the serial number, so in each of the following procedures you will be told to refer to the schematic for the pressure required. • Preheat the hydraulic oil

Oil check plug flange.eps

Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40°− 60° C). In the past we could pressure out a function in the boom or outrigger system to create heat, but load sensing systems no longer allow maximum oil flow to be forced over relief. Because of this the agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. To preheat the hydraulic oil: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 319) and close it. NOTE! If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, order one from the Schwing Spare Parts Department using part number 10004680 (valve), and number 30303432 (tube). Contact the Service Department for installation instructions.

HOME

Pressure Settings 2. Activate the agitator. With the valve closed the agitator will not be able to turn and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. At an idle (about 600 RPM), 4.5 horsepower is being converted to heat.

Setting the main relief pressure and pressure cutoff on Hi-flo -6 pumpkits a. To set the pressure of the main relief valve on Hi-flo pumpkits, you must first disable the soft switch circuit. Simply locate the ball cock for the soft switch circuit (Figure 340) and close it by rotating the handle 90 degrees. b. The quarter turn shutoff valve for the concrete pump (Figure 340) will also need to be closed during this procedure. Note: Main system adjustments are preset at the factory. The following procedure begins with adjustment of the main relief cartridge and pressure cutoff. If proper pressures can not be obtained through these steps, contact the Schwing Service Department for specific instructions on the adjustment of flow, horsepower, beginning of stroke regulation and Q-min.

1. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are in place any time you will be working in the area around the main control block. 2. Wear safety glasses when working around a concrete pump. Note! It is vital that each adjustment screw be properly identified prior to making any adjustment. All screw adjustments for the system relief must be made with the pumpkit in the neutral position and adjustments for pressure cutoff must be made with the engine shut off. 3. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO in gear just as you would to pump a job. 4. If you have not already closed the soft switch shutoff valve and the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 320) do so at this time. 5. At the rear panel, select “local” control with the “local/remote” switch and turn the electric stroke limiter knob clockwise to maximum strokes per minute. 6. The main system control block pressure must be set first to properly set the pressure cutoff on both pumps. Begin by backing off the jam nut of the main relief cartridge (Figure 342) with a 9/16 inch wrench. 7. Using a 5/32 inch allen wrench, turn the adjustment screw out (counterclockwise) until you can feel no spring tension on the adjustment screw. 8. Now, turn the screw back in (clockwise) two or three full turns to give you a proper starting point and tighten the jam nut. 9. Stop the truck engine and put the key in your pocket. Adjust the pressure cutoff screw (Figure 321) on each pump, by backing off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Using a 4mm allen wrench, turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise) one full turn and tighten the jam nut. Restart the truck engine. 10. Adjust the engine RPM to maximum specification. (See decal in truck cab) 11. Pressure out the system by activating the concrete pump forward switch on the rear panel. Using the rear panel controls will allow you to read the concrete pump main system pressure gauge, near the e-stop manifold, from a safe distance. Note: Because you turned out the pressure relief cartridge in step 7, the system pressure should read low at this time. If it does not and the gauge spikes to 320 bar or more, disengage the pump immediately. Turn the relief cartridge out (counterclockwise) more. For

safety, it is important to adjust the pressure up from below the specified target pressure rather than down from a pressure which exceeds the target. Continue this procedure until the main system pressure gauge reads lower than the specified target. 12. To increase the pressure put the pump in the neutral position and adjust the relief cartridge by turning it in (clockwise). When increasing the pressure, the adjustments should be made in quarter turn increments. If you make adjustments to increase the pressure but the pressure does not come up, you are probably reading the pressure cutoff of the pumps, if so proceed to the next step otherwise skip to step 15.Turn the relief cartridge adjustment screw back out (counterclockwise) until you can no longer see a pressure drop and tighten the jam nut. 13. Stop the truck engine, put the key in your pocket. 14. Go to the pressure cutoff screw on both hydraulic pumps (Figure 341) and back off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Turn the adjustment screws in with a 4mm allen wrench one or two more turns, restart the engine and check the pressure again. Repeat this procedure until the main system relief can be set to the target pressure. 15. When the proper main relief pressure is achieved, pressure cutoff can be set. Shut off the engine, put the key in your pocket and install 0-600 bar gauges with whip hoses to the “M1” gauge ports on the bottom of the two hydraulic pumps (Figure 341). You must be able to read both gauges simultaneously to ensure that one pump is not more dominant than the other. Note: The gauges in the M1 ports will read considerably less than the cutoff pressure of the pump. On a -6 (190/130 pump combination) the 190 will usually read 85 to 90 bar while the 130 reads about 110 bar. They could read the same however, at approximately 110 bar, but the 190 must never read higher than the 130. The actual cutoff pressure will be read on the concrete pump main system pressure gauge near the e-stop manifold. 16. Activate concrete pump forward to pressure out the pump and read the pressure on the two gauges in the “M1” ports. 17. Always stop the truck engine and put the key in your pocket before making any adjustment on the hydraulic pump. If the cutoff on one pump is set higher than the other, that pump will be more dominant. The pressure gauge in the M1 port of the

PRINT

Pressure Settings

dominant pump will however, read lower than the other. To equalize the two pumps you must either adjust the cutoff screw in (clockwise) to increase the pressure of the pump showing the higher reading or adjust the cutoff screw of the dominant pump showing the lower reading out (counterclockwise) to reduce the pressure. These adjustments must be made until the two gauges in the M1 ports are reading approximately the same. 18. When you have achieved the same pressure on the M1 port gauges, you can begin to adjust the pressure cutoff screws in or out simultaneously until you achieve the desired pressure setting of 350 bar (again, confirm the pressure specification with the hydraulic schematic). After pressure cutoff is set, return the pump to neutral, bring engine RPM to idle, open the soft switch quarter turn valve, and either proceed to other pressure settings or take the transmission and PTO out of gear and shut off the truck.

Load-sensing boom hydraulic controls

First, open the soft switch quarter turn valve (Figure 342 right) that you closed in the previous procedure. The rest of the unit should still be set up as if you were going to check the main relief valve pressure (concrete pump shutoff valve still closed). When you put the pump in forward now, the main concrete pump pressure gauge should read the pressure shown on the schematic for soft switch. If adjustment is needed, loosen Soft switch relief valve jam nut (Figure 342 right) with a 9/16 open end wrench, and use a 5/32 allen wrench to adjust the pressure. Turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise), to raise the pressure or out (counter clockwise), to lower the pressure. When you attain the require pressure, tighten the jam nut while holding the allen wrench, to keep the pressure from rising. Be sure to open the concrete pump shutoff valve on the side of the brain (Figure 342 left) when you are finished. The unit will not stroke with this valve closed.

This unit is equipped with a load-sensing, proportional boom hydraulic system. In a black-and-white system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting ∆P and Q-min. Note: The illustration in Figure 342 shows a gauge port in the center of the main control block. Your main concrete pump pressure gauge should be plumbed to that port

Setting boom circuit pressures Note! Any time you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40°–60° C). Instructions on heating the hydraulic oil are found in the first step of this “checking hydraulic pressures” segment. Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when setting pressures.

KVM 52M (pre-1998) Pressure Settings for KVM 52 Proportional Load Sensing NOTE! NOTE:All pressure settings must be done when the hydraulic oil is at 50 to 70 degrees Celsius. Please read all instructions before attempting to check or set pressures. There is a pressure limit valve and two different relief valves in the KVM 52 boom circuit. Before checking or setting these 3 valves, you should make sure that the Delta-P setting on the pressure regulator and the Q minimum setting on the hydraulic pump are properly set. In order to help you better understand this, we will describe the functions of each valve and the hydraulic pump before attempting to set or check pressures. Refer to Illustration 3 on Page- E2 for the location of each item as it is mounted on the unit. Figure 1 of this page, is called the pressure regulator. Adjusting screw (item 4) is the pressure limit function of the pressure regulator. Adjusting screw (item 3) is the Delta-P function of the regulator. The Delta-P function senses pressure on both sides of the boom control blocks, and adjusts the output flow of the hydraulic pumps. Figure 2 of this page is the "normally open" relief valve. (Normally open denotes that unless the coil is energized, the relief valve will not develop any pressure). This is the valve that opens and vents your boom circuit to tank when you hit the red emergency shut off button on your remote control box or operations panel. Figure 3 of this page shows one of the two boom control blocks. (Item 5) is pointing to the primary relief valve located on the control block. It's function is to protect the block from any pressure spikes that might be in the system. Figure 4 of this page is the boom circuit hydraulic pump. This style of hydraulic pump has a variable output depending on the requirements of the boom, which is controlled by the pressure regulator described in Figure 1 (above). Figure 5 of this page is the pre-control block. (Item 6) designates the gauge port. (Item 7) designates the 34 Bar pressure reducing valve. (Item 8) designates the 50 Bar pretension relief valve.

read an accurate Delta-P pressure on either the pretension gauge or the main pressure gauge. This requires that the Q-min. be re-adjusted; (refer to paragraph 2. for Q minimum setting). b. While observing the pretension or the main pressure gauge you increase the engine RPM by 300 RPM in 3 increments of 100 RPM each, making sure that the pressure does not increase. This will assure that you are indeed observing accurate Delta-P. If the pressure does increase, then the pressure observed is an idle Q-min. and not a true Delta-P. You should then follow the procedures in paragraph 1. A. c. Install a high pressure (0-600 Bar) gauge in the X port of the regulator with a "T" fitting. While operating a boom function, monitor the pressure between the main pressure gauge and the gauge at the X port of the regulator. There should be exactly 20 Bar less pressure at the X port continuously. Adjusting Delta-P: The Delta-P pressure should be 20 Bar, plus or minus 1 Bar; (this is the same for KVM 32, KVM 36 X, KVM 42 and KVM 52 machines). If the Delta-P pressure is incorrect, then the regulator must be adjusted accordingly. Turn the small screw (Figure 1, item 3) on the regulator inward to increase or outward to decrease the Delta-P pressure. If Delta-P pressure cannot be adjusted to proper pressure, the regulator may be defective. 2. Q Minimum setting: the Q minimum stop on the hydraulic pump, (Figure 4, item 1). With all boom functions in the neutral position, emergency stop buttons up, the engine at maximum specified RPM's, the pressure on the main gauge (0-600 bar) should be: a)

KVM 32 & 36 = 40 Bar;

b)

KVM 42 = 40-45 Bar;

c)

KVM 52 = 50-55 Bar.

If the pressure is incorrect, the Q-min. screw on the hydraulic pump must be adjusted accordingly. Turn the Q-min screw inward to increase the pressure and outward to decrease the pressure.

Pressure Settings for Regulator and Releif Valves KVM 52 Now that we know our delta-P and Q-minimum are set correct we can check and reset the pressure limit and two relief valves. The correct pressure settings are as follows:

1) PRESSURE REGULATOR (Figure 1, item 4)320 Bar 2) CONTROL BLOCK RELIEF (Figure 3, item 5)350 Bar 3) NORMALLY OPEN BYPASS VALVE (Figure 2, item 2)360 Bar In order to reset the valve with the highest pressure, we must first raise the pressure of the other two valves. a. To set the pressure regulator (Figure 1), loosen the lock nut (Item 4), and turn the adjusting screw inward approximately two turns. This will raise the pressure of this valve higher than 360 bar. b. To set the control block (Figure 3), loosen the lock nut (item 5), and turn the adjusting screw inward approximately one turn. This will raise the relief pressure higher than 360 Bar. c. Pressure out any boom section. The pressure can now be read on the 0-600 Bar gauge that is near the control blocks. The gauge should read 360 Bar. If not, adjust the normally open bypass valve, (Figure 2, item 2). After you have this relief set to 360 Bar, you can lock the locknut and move on to the control block relief. (Be careful not break off the electrical connections or over-torque the locknuts on this valve. d. While you continue to hold a function pressured out you can adjust the control block relief valve (Figure 3, item 5), until the pressure gauge now reads 350 Bar. After this pressure is set and the locknut is locked, proceed to the pressure regulator. e. While still holding a function pressured out you can now adjust the pressure regulator (Fig. 1, Item 4), until the pressure gauge reads 320 Bar. When this pressure has been set and the locknut is locked, you are finished setting the main circuit pressures on the boom.

Pressure Settings

Setting Pretension Pressure(Refer to Figure 5) a. To set the pretension pressure, install a 0-250 Bar gauge and connection hose on the gauge port (item 6). Loosen the locknut on the pressure reducing valve (item 7), and turn the adjusting screw inward approximately two turns. This will raise the valve’s pressure higher than 50 Bar. b. While holding a function pressured out, adjust the pretension relief valve (item 8), until the gauge reads 50 Bar. c. Remove 0-250 Bar gauge, and install a 0-40 Bar gauge. With all boom functions in neutral and engine at full rpm’s (this provides Q-Min), adjust the pressure reducing valve (item 7), until the gauge reads 34 Bar. (CAUTION!!! - do not activate any boom functions during this operation or damage to the 0-40 Bar gauge will result).

KVM 52M Preheat the hydraulic oil. Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (50° to 60° C). In the past we could pressure out a function in the boom or outrigger system to create heat, but today, load sensing systems no longer allow maximum oil flow to be forced over relief. Because of this, the agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. To heat the oil to operating temperature: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 343) and close it. The quarter turn shutoff valve has a grooved line (Figure 343) on the shaft or pivot point of the handle as well as on the handle itself, which will indicate the open or closed configuration of the valve. If the handle is removed from the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 343) or the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 344) and

agitoff.eps

Motor

Pressure Settings

replaced in a different configuration the grooves in the handle may no longer indicate the proper open/ closed orientation of the valve. The grooves in the shaft give the only true indication of the valves position. Note! If your unit is an early production model, and does not have an agitator shutoff valve, order one from the Schwing Spare Parts Department, using part number 10004680 (valve) and number 30303432 (tube). Contact the Service Department for installation instructions. 2. Activate the agitator. With the valve closed, the agitator will not be able to turn and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. At an idle (about 600 RPM) you will be converting 4.5 horsepower to heat. 3. When the oil temperature gauge shows 50˚ C, open the shutoff valve.

Setting relief pressure and pressure cutoff on Hi-flo -6 pumpkits a. To set the pressure of the main relief valve on Hi-flo pumpkits, you must first disable the soft switch circuit. Simply locate the ball cock for the soft switch circuit (Figure 320) and close it by rotating the handle 90 degrees. b. The quarter turn shutoff valve for the concrete pump (Figure 344) will also need to be closed during this procedure.

Note: Main system adjustments are preset at the factory. The following procedure begins with adjustment of the main relief cartridge and pressure cutoff. If proper pressures can not be obtained through these steps, contact the Schwing Service Department for specific instructions on the adjustment of flow, horsepower, beginning of stroke regulation and Q-min. Pressure setting procedure: 1. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are in place any time you will be working in the area around the main control block. 2. Wear safety glasses when working around a concrete pump. Note! It is vital that each adjustment screw be properly identified prior to making any adjustment. All screw adjustments for the system relief must be made with the pumpkit in the neutral position and adjustments for pressure cutoff must be made with the engine shut off. 3. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO in gear just as you would to pump a job. 4. If you have not already closed the soft switch shutoff valve and the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 344) do so at this time. 5. At the rear panel, select “local” control with the “local/remote” switch and turn the electric stroke limiter knob clockwise to maximum strokes per minute. 6. The main system control block pressure must be set first to properly set the pressure cutoff on both pumps. Begin by backing off the jam nut of the main relief cartridge (Figure 345) with a 9/16 inch wrench. 7. Using a 5/32 inch allen wrench, turn the adjustment screw out (counterclockwise) until you can feel no spring tension on the adjustment screw.

8. Now, turn the screw back in (clockwise) two or three full turns to give you a proper starting point and tighten the jam nut. 9. Stop the truck engine, put the key in your pocket and adjust the pressure cutoff screw (Figure 345) on each pump, by backing off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Using a 4mm allen wrench, turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise) one full turn and tighten the jam nut. Restart the truck engine. 10. Adjust the engine RPM to maximum specification. (See decal in truck cab) 11. Pressure out the system by activating the concrete pump forward switch on the rear panel. Using the rear panel controls will allow you to read the concrete pump main system pressure gauge, near the e-stop manifold, from a safe distance. Note: Because you turned out the pressure relief cartridge in step 7, the system pressure should read low at this time. If it does not and the gauge spikes to 320 bar or more, disengage the pump immediately. Turn the relief cartridge out (counterclockwise) more. For safety, it is important to adjust the pressure up from below the specified target pressure rather than down from a pressure which exceeds the target. Continue this procedure until the main system pressure gauge reads lower than the specified target. 12. To increase the pressure put the pump in the neutral position and adjust the relief cartridge by turning it in (clockwise). When increasing the pressure, the adjustments should be made in quarter turn increments. If you make adjustments to increase the pressure but the pressure does not come up, you are probably reading the pressure cutoff of the pumps, if so proceed to the next step otherwise skip to step 15.Turn the relief cartridge

Go to the pressure cutoff screw on both hydraulic pumps and back off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Turn the adjustment screws in with a 4mm allen wrench one or two more turns, restart the engine and check the pressure again. Repeat this procedure until the main system relief can be set to the target pressure. 15. When the proper main relief pressure is achieved, pressure cutoff can be set. Shut off the engine, put the key in your pocket and install 0-600 bar gauges with whip hoses to the “M1” gauge ports on the bottom of the two hydraulic pumps (Figure 346). You must be able to read both gauges simultaneously to ensure that one pump is not more dominant than the other. Note: The gauges in the M1 ports will read considerably less than the cutoff pressure of the pump. On a -6 (190/130 pump combination) the 190 will usually read 85 to 90 bar while the 130 reads about 110 bar. They could read the same however, at approximately 110 bar, but the 190 must never read higher than the 130. The actual cutoff pressure will be read on the concrete pump main system pressure gauge near the e-stop manifold. Main and soft switch relief cartridges

Pressure Settings

16. Activate concrete pump forward to pressure out the pump and read the pressure on the two gauges in the “M1” ports. 17. Always stop the truck engine and put the key in your pocket before making any adjustment on the hydraulic pump. If the cutoff on one pump is set higher than the other, that pump will be more dominant. The pressure gauge in the M1 port of the dominant pump will however, read lower than the other. To equalize the two pumps you must either adjust the cutoff screw in (clockwise) to increase the pressure of the pump showing the higher reading or adjust the cutoff screw of the dominant pump showing the lower reading out (counterclockwise) to reduce the pressure. These adjustments must be made until the two gauges in the M1 ports are reading approximately the same. 18. When you have achieved the same pressure on the M1 port gauges, you can begin to adjust the pressure cutoff screws in or out simultaneously until you achieve the desired pressure setting of 350 bar (again, confirm the pressure specification with the hydraulic schematic). After pressure cutoff is set, return the pump to neutral, bring engine RPM to idle, open the soft switch quarter turn valve, and either proceed to other pressure settings or take the transmission and PTO out of gear and shut off the truck.

Setting the soft switch circuit relief pressure a. If you haven’t already done so, open the soft switch quarter turn valve (Figure 345). The rest of the unit should still be set up as though you were going to check the main relief valve pressure (concrete pump shutoff valve still closed). b. When you put the pump in forward now, the pressure gauge should read the pressure shown on the schematic for soft switch. If adjustment is needed, loosen the jam nut of the soft switch relief cartridge (Figure 321) with a 9/16 inch open end wrench, and use a 5/32 inch allen wrench to adjust the pressure. Turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise) to raise the pressure or out (counter clockwise) to lower the pressure. When you attain the required pressure, tighten the jam nut while holding the allen wrench, to keep the pressure from rising. Be sure to open the concrete pump quarter turn valve on the side of the brain (Figure 321) when you are finished. The unit will not stroke with this valve closed.

Set boom circuit pressures NOTE! Any time you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (50 to 60° C). Instructions on heating the hydraulic oil for this procedure are found in step on page 6-483. Please read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the following procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when setting pressures. Current production model 52 meter pumps are equipped with a load sensing, proportional boom hydraulic system. If the system were black and white, the hydraulic pump would put out an unchanging amount of oil and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. With a load sensing system, the pumps put out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump always puts out enough oil to maintain 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than the boom cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P. You may see it referred to by a symbol (∆ P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if none is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced

PRINT

HOME

SERVICE TRAINING

“cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load sensing system, begin by checking ∆ P and Q-min.t

PRINT

Pressure Settings

CAUTION! When checking Delta P, it is important to note that you will be installing a low pressure gauge into a high pressure port. Any activation of a boom function or activation of an e-stop, while this gauge is attached will destroy your gauge. On Comfort control units, always center the boom speed switch on the remote box to prevent accidental activation of a joy stick.

Checking and Setting ∆P pressure Note! Do not adjust delta P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from that point. The pressure was fine tuned at the factory, and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary.

1. Install a 0-100 bar whip gauge in the high pressure test port (Figure 347) located on the inside of the right boom control block as you face the three valve blocks. rtblock2.eps

2. With the engine at idle, turn the adjustable relief cartridge (Figure 348) on the boom pilot control valve, out (counter clockwise) approximately three

turns. Remember exactly how much you move this cartridge because it will need to be returned to the original position.

Pressure Settings 4. Increase the throttle RPM and the pressure should remain the same. If the pressure fluctuates with engine RPM you are probably still reading Q-min, and the adjustable relief cartridge (Figure 349) will need to be turned out more. 5. If no further adjustment is needed, return the pilot valve relief cartridge to its original position. If adjustment is required, proceed to the next step. 6. Delta P is adjusted on the bottom (smaller) screw of the pressure regulator shown in Figure 349 below, if your unit has an A7VO boom pump, by loosening the jam nut (10mm open end wrench),

and adjusting the screw (3mm allen wrench) clockwise to increase pressure or counter clockwise to decrease it. 7. The delta P adjustment screw on the A11VO boom pump also shown in Figure 307 below, requires a 13mm open end wrench and a 4mm allen wrench. 8. If no further adjustment is needed, return the pilot valve relief cartridge to its original position, and proceed to Q-min. 9. If pressure cannot be correctly set, there is a problem, contact Schwing Service Department to determine how to continue.

WARNING Stop the engine before adjusting the Q-min screw or Delta P on A11. Driveline entanglement hazard! Check Q-min with the engine at maximum specified RPM. Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. 1. Before proceeding, remove the 0-100 bar whip gauge from the high pressure gauge port (Figure 279) and install a 0-400 or 0-600 bar gauge to the same port, to make certain that the higher pressure won’t destroy your 0-100 bar gauge.

2. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). Clear away all personnel, start the truck engine, engage the pumps and bring engine RPM to maximum specification. 3. Read the pressure. If the pressure reads less than 100 bar, remove the high pressure gauge and reinstall the 0-100 bar gauge. Pressure should be at 50-55 bar. If adjustment is needed, continue to point 4. 4. Stop the engine and turn the Q-min screw (Figure 350) in (clockwise) to raise the pressure, or out (counter-clockwise) to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each

Checking boom pressures After the Delta P and Q-min are set, remove the 0-100 bar gauge and proceed to check and adjust, if necessary, the main boom pressures. 1. To check the boom pressure, install a 0-600 bar gauge in the boom circuit high pressure gauge port (Called out but not visible in Figure 351). 2. With the engine at full RPM and the boom folded, activate boom #2, #3, or #4 to the in position, which will pressure out the function. A function must be pressured out each time you want to check the pressure.

3. Read the gauge. It should be showing the lowest relief pressure setting of the boom circuit (pressure regulator or cutoff) + or - 5 bar (See schematic). If it does not, a minor adjustment can be made by going to the pressure regulator (large screw) for units with A7VO pumps or after stopping the engine, the pressure cutoff screw for units with A11VO pumps, backing off the jam nut and turning the adjustment screw to achieve the desired pressure.

Attach 0-600 bar whip gauge to gauge port shown in Figure 312. 2. Push the outrigger button. 3. Activate an outrigger jacking cylinder to retract. By attempting to retract a cylinder which is already retracted the oil coming from the pump has no where to go but over the relief valve. You cannot

use an extension cylinder because they have secondary relief functions (non-adjustable) built into the valve. While holding the push-button and activating either handle number 4 or 5 Figure 312, to retract position, read the pressure on the gauge. 4. Check the schematic to see what the pressure should read.

KVM 55M Check all hydraulic pressures Changes in pressure can indicate trouble in one or more components and will serve as early warning indicators if you check them on a regular basis. The specifications for each circuit are shown on the hydraulic schematics found in the Appendix section of this manual. The hydraulic schematics are the only documents in this manual that have been updated specifically for your unit, by the serial number, so in each of the following procedures you will be told to refer to the schematic for the pressure required.

Preheat the hydraulic oil Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (50° to 60° C). In the past we could pressure out a function in the boom or outrigger system to create heat, but today, load sensing systems no longer allow maximum oil flow to be forced over relief. Because of this, the agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. To heat the oil to operating temperature: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 359), and close it. The quarter turn shutoff valve has a grooved line (Figure 359) on the shaft or pivot

Pressure Settings

point of the handle as well as on the handle itself, which will indicate the open or closed configuration of the valve. If the handle is removed from the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 359) or the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 360) and replaced in a different configuration, the grooves in the handle may no longer indicate the proper open/ closed orientation of the valve. The grooves in the shaft give the only true indication of the valves position. NOTE: If your unit is an early production model and does not have an agitator shutoff valve, order one from the Schwing Spare Parts Department, using part number 10004680 (valve) and number 30303432 (tube). Contact the Service Department for installation instructions. 2. Activate the agitator. With the valve closed, the agitator will not be able to turn and the oil will be forced over the relief valve. At an idle (about 600 RPM) you will be converting 4.5 horsepower to heat. 3. When the oil temperature gauge shows 50˚ C, open the shutoff valve.

Setting relief pressure and pressure cutoff on Hi-flo -6 pumpkits 1. To set the pressure of the main relief valve on Hiflo pumpkits, you must first disable the soft switch circuit. Simply locate the ball cock for the soft switch circuit (Figure 360), and close it by rotating the handle 90 degrees. 2. The quarter turn shutoff valve for the concrete pump (Figure 360) will also need to be closed during this procedure. Note: Main system adjustments are preset at the factory. The following procedure begins with adjustment of the main relief cartridge and pressure cutoff. If proper pressures cannot be obtained through these steps, contact the Schwing Service Department for specific instructions on the adjustment of flow, horsepower, beginning of stroke regulation, and Q-min. Pressure setting procedure: 3. Be sure that the waterbox covers and guards are in place any time you will be working in the area around the main control block. 4. Wear safety glasses when working around a concrete pump. Note! It is vital that each adjustment screw be properly identified prior to making any adjustment. All screw adjustments for the system relief must be made with the pumpkit in the neutral position, and adjustments for pressure cutoff must be made with the engine shut off. 5. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO in gear just as you would to pump a job.

6. If you have not already closed the soft switch shutoff valve and the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 360), do so at this time. 7. At the rear panel, select “local” control with the “local/remote” switch, and turn the electric stroke limiter knob clockwise to maximum strokes per minute. 8. The main system control block pressure must be set first to properly set the pressure cutoff on both pumps. Begin by backing off the jam nut of the main relief cartridge (Figure 361) with a 9/16 inch wrench. 9. Using a 5/32 inch allen wrench, turn the adjustment screw out (counterclockwise) until you can feel no spring tension on the adjustment screw. 10. Now, turn the screw back in (clockwise) two or three full turns to give you a proper starting point, and tighten the jam nut. 11. Stop the truck engine, put the key in your pocket, and adjust the pressure cutoff screw (Figure 321) on each pump, by backing off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Using a 4mm allen wrench, turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise) one full turn, and tighten the jam nut. Restart the truck engine. 12. Adjust the engine RPM to maximum specification. (See decal in truck cab) 13. Pressure out the system by activating the concrete pump forward switch on the rear panel. Using the rear panel controls will allow you to read the concrete pump main system pressure gauge, near the e-stop manifold, from a safe distance.

SERVICE TRAINING

NOTE: Because you turned out the pressure relief cartridge in step 7, the system pressure should read low at this time. If it does not and the gauge spikes to 320 bar or more, disengage the pump immediately. Turn the relief cartridge out (counterclockwise) more. For safety, it is important to adjust the pressure up from below the specified target pressure rather than down from a pressure which exceeds the target. Continue this procedure until the main system pressure gauge reads lower than the specified target. 14. To increase the pressure, put the pump in the neutral position and adjust the relief cartridge by turning it in (clockwise). When increasing the pressure, the adjustments should be made in quarter turn increments. If you make adjustments to increase the pressure but the pressure does not come up, you are probably reading the pressure cutoff of the pumps. If so, proceed to the next step; otherwise skip to step 15. • Turn the relief cartridge adjustment screw back out (counterclockwise) until you can no longer see a pressure drop, and tighten the jam nut. • Stop the truck engine, and put the key in your pocket. • Go to the pressure cutoff screw on both hydraulic pumps, and back off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Turn the adjustment screws in with a 4mm allen wrench one or two more turns, restart the engine, and check the pressure again. Repeat this procedure until the main system relief can be set to the target pressure. 15. When the proper main relief pressure is achieved, pressure cutoff can be set. Shut off the engine, put the key in your pocket, and install 0-600 bar gauges with whip hoses to the M1 gauge ports on the bottom of the two hydraulic pumps (Figure 321). You must be able to read both gauges simultaneously to ensure that one pump is not more dominant than the other. NOTE: The gauges in the M1 ports will read considerably less than the cutoff pressure of the pump. On a -6 (190/130 pump combination) the 190 will usually read 85 to 90 bar while the 130 reads about 110 bar. They could read the same at approximately 110 bar, but the 190 must never read higher than the 130. The actual cutoff pressure will be read on the concrete pump main system pressure gauge near the e-stop manifold.

PRINT

Pressure Settings

16. Activate the concrete pump forward to pressure out the pump and read the pressure on the two gauges in the M1 ports. 17. Always stop the truck engine, and put the key in your pocket before making any adjustment on the hydraulic pump. If the cutoff on one pump is set higher than the other, that pump will be more dominant. The pressure gauge in the M1 port of the dominant pump will, however, read lower than the other. To equalize the two pumps, you must either adjust the cutoff screw in (clockwise) to increase the pressure of the pump showing the higher reading, or adjust the cutoff screw of the dominant pump showing the lower reading out (counterclockwise) to reduce the pressure. These adjustments must be made until the two gauges in the M1 ports are reading approximately the same. 18. When you have achieved the same pressure on the M1 port gauges, you can begin to adjust the pressure cutoff screws in or out simultaneously until you achieve the desired pressure setting of 350 bar (again, confirm the pressure specification with the hydraulic schematic). After pressure cutoff is set, return the pump to neutral, bring engine RPM to idle, open the soft switch quarter turn valve, and either proceed to other pressure settings or take the transmission and PTO out of gear; then shut off the truck.

Setting boom circuit pressures NOTE! Any time you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (50 to 60° C). Instructions on heating the hydraulic oil for this procedure are found on page 495. Please read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the following procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when setting pressures. Current production model 55 meter pumps are equipped with a load sensing, proportional boom hydraulic system. If the system were black and white, the hydraulic pump would put out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control would be done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. With a load sensing system, the pumps put out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump always puts out enough oil to maintain 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than the boom cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P. You may see it referred to by a symbol (∆ P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if none is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load sensing system, begin by checking ∆ P and Q-min.

Checking and setting ∆P pressure NOTE: Do not adjust delta P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned

Pressure Settings

from that point. The pressure was fine tuned at the factory and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary. rtblock2.eps

High pressure gauge port

Figure 363 The high pressure gauge port is located between the blocks on the inside edge of the right boom control block. CAUTION! When checking delta P, it is important to note that you will be installing a low pressure gauge into a high pressure port. Any activation of a boom function or activation of an e-stop while this gauge is attached will destroy your gauge. On Comfort Control units, always center the boom speed switch on the remote box to prevent accidental activation of a joy stick.

WARNING Entanglement hazard. Stop drive shafts before adjusting Delta P on A11VO pump.

W020.eps

2. When you put the pump in forward now, the pressure gauge should read the pressure shown on the schematic for soft switch. If adjustment is needed, loosen the jam nut of the soft switch relief cartridge (Figure 321) with a 9/16 inch open end wrench, and use a 5/32 inch allen wrench to adjust the pressure. Turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise) to raise the pressure or out (counter clockwise) to lower the pressure. When you attain the required pressure, tighten the jam nut while holding the allen wrench to keep the pressure from rising. Be sure to open the concrete pump quarter turn valve on the side of the brain (Figure 359) when you are finished. The unit will not stroke with this valve closed.

1. Install a 0-100 bar whip gauge in the high pressure test port (Figure 363), located on the inside of the right boom control block as you face the three valve blocks.

52pilot.eps

preset pressure reducing valve gauge port Figure 364 Location of adjustable relief cartridge on the boom pilot control valve 3. With the engine running and the relief cartridge backed out, the gauge (Figure 365) should be showing delta P. The pressure could be anywhere from 16-25 bar.

4. Increase the throttle RPM, and the pressure should remain the same. If the pressure fluctuates with engine RPM, you are probably still reading Q-min, and the adjustable relief cartridge (Figure 365) will need to be turned out more. 5. If no further adjustment is needed, return the pilot valve relief cartridge to its original position. If adjustment is required, proceed to the next step. 6. Delta P is adjusted on the bottom (smaller) screw of the pressure regulator shown in Figure 365 below, if your unit has an A7VO boom pump you can do so by loosening the jam nut (10mm open end wrench) and adjusting the screw (3mm allen wrench) clockwise to increase pressure or counter clockwise to decrease it. 7. The delta P adjustment screw on the A11VO boom pump, also shown in Figure 307 below, requires a 13mm open end wrench and a 4mm allen wrench. 8. If no further adjustment is needed, return the pilot valve relief cartridge to its original position, and proceed to Q-min. 9. If pressure cannot be correctly set, there is a problem; contact Schwing Service Department to determine how to continue.

W009.eps

WARNING

1. Before proceeding, remove the 0-100 bar whip gauge from the high pressure gauge port (Figure 364), and install a 0-400 or 0-600 bar gauge to the same port to make certain that the higher pressure won’t destroy your 0-100 bar gauge. 2. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). Clear away all personnel, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to maximum specification. 3. Read the pressure. If the pressure reads less than 100 bar, remove the high pressure gauge and reinstall the 0-100 bar gauge. Pressure should be at 50-55 bar. If adjustment is needed, continue to point 4. 4. Stop the engine, and turn the Q-min screw (Figure 365) in (clockwise) to raise the pressure or out (counter-clockwise) to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures.

NOTE: If you don’t have a 0-100 bar gauge, you can order one from Schwing Spare Parts Department at (800) 328-9635, part #10004659.

Checking boom pressures After the delta P and Q-min are set, remove the 0-100 bar gauge, and proceed to check and adjust the main boom pressures, if necessary. 1. To check the boom pressure, install a 0-600 bar gauge in the boom circuit high pressure gauge port (called out but not visible in Figure 367). 2. With the engine at full RPM and the boom folded, activate boom #2, #3, or #4 to the in position, which will pressure out the function. A function must be pressured out each time you want to check the pressure. Read the gauge. It should be showing the lowest relief pressure setting of the boom circuit (pressure regulator or cutoff) + or - 5 bar (see schematic). If it does not, a minor adjustment can be made by going to the pressure regulator (large screw) for units with A7VO pumps (Figure 368), backing off the jam nut and turning the adjustment screw to achieve the desired pressure. For units with A11VO pumps, after stopping the engine, back off the jam nut on the pressure cutoff screw (Figure 368) and make the adjustment. If the pressure cannot be reached, return the screw to the original setting, and proceed to Setting boom circuit pressures.

1. Review the hydraulic schematic, and identify the three different pressure settings involved in this circuit. 1) boom block main relief, 2) e-stop manifold relief, and 3) pressure regulator. 2. Since the gauge will always show you the lowest of the three settings, it is necessary to raise the two lowest pressures enough to allow us to see the highest one, which will be the main relief at the boom block (Figure 367).

3. Loosen the jam nut on the large screw of the pressure regulator or the pressure cutoff screw (Figure 368), depending which one your unit has, and turn the adjustment screw clockwise, all the way in.

4. Loosen the jam nut on the boom circuit relief cartridge located on the e-stop manifold (Figure 369) using a 9/16 wrench, and turn the adjustment screw in using a 5/32 allen wrench until you can see the maximum pressure of the boom block main relief showing on the gauge while pressuring out a boom function. 5. If the pressure reading is still lower than the maximum shown on the schematic, loosen the jam nut on the control block main relief adjustment screw, (Figure 352) and turn the adjusting screw in. This will raise the pressure of the main relief valve until the desired pressure is achieved. Tighten the jam nut to secure the adjustment screw. 6. Now return to the boom circuit relief cartridge (Figure 369), and turn the adjustment screw back out (counter-clockwise) until the second highest pressure on the boom circuit schematic is achieved. Tighten the jam nut to secure the adjustment screw.

7. Finally, return to the pressure regulator or pressure cutoff (Figure 368), and turn the adjustment screw out until the lowest pressure on the schematic is achieved. Lock the jam nut.

Checking pretension pressure This procedure is to check the pretension pressure only. The pressure you will be reading is from the factory preset pressure reducing valve (Figure 370), which can not be adjusted. 1. Install a 0-60 bar whip gauge on the gauge port of the precontrol block (Figure 370), and bring the engine RPM to full throttle. The gauge should read 33-35 bar. If the pressure reading is different than that, contact the Schwing Service Department for instructions on how to proceed.

If it does not read the specified pressure, turn the body of the relief valve using a 19mm socket or wrench. The cartridge should be turned in (clockwise) to increase pressure or out (counterclockwise) to decrease pressure. 7. After the pressure is set, deactivate the agitator system by placing the manual control handle in the neutral position. 8. Remove the whip gauge. 9. Reopen the shutoff valve or stop the engine and remove the key. Remove the dead plugs and store them in a clean area. Re-attach the hose to the agitator motor fitting and tighten securely. (Torque is correct if you make one complete revolution after feeling initial resistance increase).

Set accumulator circuit pressure You will need an assistant for parts of this procedure. There are three relief settings for the accumulator circuit if your unit is equipped with an accumulator redundant relief cartridge in the emergency stop manifold (Figure 375). If your pump was built after January 1, 2000. It will have an emergency stop manifold which no longer has a redundant relief cartridge. In that case, you must skip steps 3 and 7 in the following procedure. To check or adjust the hydraulic pressure in the accumulator circuit: 1. Stop the truck, put the key in your pocket, and place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the windshield. 2. Loosen the jam nut on the pressure regulator of the accumulator hydraulic pump (Figure 374). Turn the screw in two-and-one-half turns. This will raise the regulator pressure above 300 bar. 3. Loosen the jam nut (Figure 375) on the accumulator redundant relief cartridge located on the emergency stop manifold. Turn the screw in two turns. This will raise the relief setting above 300 bar.

S 58/61SX The following pages provide the proper techniques for checking and setting hydraulic pressures of each system included on your unit.

Check all hydraulic pressures Changes in pressures can indicate trouble in one or more components. The specifications for each circuit are shown on the hydraulic schematics found in the Appendix of this manual. The hydraulic schematics are the only documents in this manual that have been updated specifically for your unit by the serial number, so in each of the following procedures you will be told to refer to the schematic for the pressure required. If you wish to order a CD ROM which explains the pressure setting procedure for a specific model (All pumpkits), call SAI Spare Parts Department at (800) 328 - 9635 and request the CD using the following part numbers: • 61/58 meter. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30365860 • 52 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30354732 • 45/47 meter. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30356770 • 42 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30355485 • 39 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30365861 • 34 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30356772 • 32 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30355486 • 31 meter . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30365862 Preheat the hydraulic oil

Setting pressures on Hi-flo -6 pumpkits •

To set the pressure of the main relief valve on Hi-flo pumpkits, you must first disable the soft switch circuit. Simply locate the ball cock shutoff for the soft switch circuit (Figure 320), and close it by rotating the handle 90 degrees. The quarter turn shutoff valve for the concrete pump (Figure 320) will also need to be closed during this procedure.

NOTE! Main system adjustments are preset at the factory. The following procedure begins with adjustment of the main relief cartridge and pressure cutoff. If proper pressures can not be obtained through these steps, contact the Schwing Service Department for specific instructions on the adjustment of flow, horsepower, beginning of stroke regulation and Q-min. Pressure setting procedure:

Pressure settings must be made with the oil at normal operating temperatures (40°− 60° C). In the past we could pressure out a function in the boom or outrigger system to create heat, but load sensing systems no longer allow maximum oil flow to be forced over relief. Because of this the agitator circuit must be used to heat the hydraulic oil. To preheat the hydraulic oil: 1. Locate the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 319) and close it.

It is vital that each adjustment screw be properly identified prior to making any adjustment. All screw adjustments for the system relief must be made with the pumpkit in the neutral position, and adjustments for pressure cutoff must be made with the engine shut off. Start the truck engine, and put the PTO in gear just as you would to pump a job. If you have not already closed the soft switch shutoff valve and the concrete pump shutoff valve (Figure 320), do so at this time. At the Vector controller, select “local” control with the “local/remote” switch, and activate the electric stroke limiter switch to maximum strokes per minute. The main system control block pressure must be set first to properly set the pressure cutoff on both pumps. Begin by backing off the jam nut of the main relief cartridge (Figure 322) with a 9/16 inch wrench. Using a 5/32 inch allen key, turn the adjustment screw out (counterclockwise) until you can feel no spring tension on the adjustment screw. Now, turn the screw back in (clockwise) two or three full turns to give you a proper starting point, and tighten the jam nut. Stop the truck engine, and put the key in your pocket. Adjust the pressure cutoff screw (Figure 321) on each pump by backing off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Using a 4mm allen key, turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise) one full turn, and tighten the jam nut. Restart the truck engine. Adjust the engine RPM to maximum specification. (See decal in truck cab) Pressure out the system by activating the concrete pump forward switch on the rear panel. Using the rear panel controls will allow you to read the concrete pump main system pressure gauge, near the e-stop manifold, from a safe distance.

NOTE! Because you turned out the pressure relief cartridge in step 7, the system pressure should read low at this time. If it does not, and the gauge spikes to 320 bar or more, disengage the pump immediately. Turn the relief cartridge out (counterclockwise) more. For safety, it is important to adjust the pressure up from below the specified target pressure rather than down from a

pressure which exceeds the target. Continue this procedure until the main system pressure gauge reads lower than the specified target. To increase the pressure put the pump in the neutral position, and adjust the relief cartridge by turning it in (clockwise). When increasing the pressure, the adjustments should be made in quarter turn increments. If you make adjustments to increase the pressure but the pressure does not come up, you are probably reading the pressure cutoff of the pumps. If so, proceed to the next step; otherwise skip to step 15. Turn the relief cartridge adjustment screw back out (counterclockwise) until you can no longer see a pressure drop, and tighten the jam nut. Stop the truck engine and put the key in your pocket. Go to the pressure cutoff screw on both hydraulic pumps (Figure 321), and back off the jam nut with a 13mm wrench. Turn the adjustment screws in with a 4mm allen key one or two more turns, restart the engine, and check the pressure again. Repeat this procedure until the main system relief can be set to the target pressure. When the proper main relief pressure is achieved, pressure cutoff can be set. Shut off the engine, put the key in your pocket, and install 0-600 bar gauges with whip hoses to the “M1” gauge ports on the bottom of the two hydraulic pumps (Figure 321). You must be able to read both gauges simultaneously to ensure that one pump is not more dominant than the other.

NOTE! The gauges in the M1 ports will read considerably less than the cutoff pressure of the pump. On a -6 (190/130 pump combination), the 190 will usually read 85 to 90 bar, while the 130 reads about 110 bar. They could read the same, however, at approximately 110 bar, but the 190 must never read higher than the 130. The actual cutoff pressure will be read on the concrete pump main system pressure gauge near the e-stop manifold. 16. Activate concrete pump forward to pressure out the pump, and read the pressure on the two gauges in the “M1” ports. 17. Always stop the truck engine and put the key in your pocket before making any adjustment on the hydraulic pump. If the cutoff on one pump is set higher than the other, that pump will be more

dominant. The pressure gauge in the M1 port of the dominant pump will, however, read lower than the other. To equalize the two pumps, you must either adjust the cutoff screw in (clockwise) to increase the pressure of the pump showing the higher reading or adjust the cutoff screw of the dominant pump showing the lower reading out (counterclockwise) to reduce the pressure. These adjustments must be made until the two gauges in the M1 ports are reading approximately the same. 18. When you have achieved the same pressure on the M1 port gauges, you can begin to adjust the

pressure cutoff screws in or out simultaneously until you achieve the desired pressure setting of 350 bar (again, confirm the pressure specification with the hydraulic schematic). After pressure cutoff is set, return the pump to neutral, bring engine RPM to idle, open the soft switch quarter turn valve, and either proceed to other pressure settings or take the transmission and PTO out of gear and shut off the truck.

Setting the soft switch relief pressure

Load-sensing boom hydraulic controls

First, open the soft switch quarter turn valve (Figure 322, right) that you closed in the previous procedure. The rest of the unit should still be set up as if you were going to check the main relief valve pressure (concrete pump shutoff valve still closed). When you put the pump in forward now, the main concrete pump pressure gauge should read the pressure shown on the schematic for soft switch. If adjustment is needed, loosen soft switch relief valve jam nut (Figure 322 right) with a 9/16 open end wrench, and use a 5/32 allen key to adjust the pressure. Turn the adjustment screw in (clockwise) to raise the pressure or out (counterclockwise) to lower the pressure. When you attain the required pressure, tighten the jam nut while holding the allen key to keep the pressure from rising. Be sure to open the concrete pump shutoff valve on the side of the brain (Figure 322, left) when you are finished. The unit will not stroke with this valve closed.

This unit is equipped with a load-sensing, proportional boom hydraulic system. In a black-and-white system, the hydraulic pump puts out an unchanging amount of oil, and speed control is done by restricting the oil to certain functions with orifices. In a load-sensing system, the pump puts out more or less oil to respond to the needs of the system. Generally, the pump puts out enough oil to maintain 20 bar higher pressure at the pump than the cylinders actually require. This 20 bar is called delta P (∆P). Additionally, we set the hydraulic pump so that it always puts out a small amount of oil, even if no oil is needed for the system. This oil is used to ensure that you have control when you need it. The setting to maintain this minimum amount of oil is called Q-min (pronounced “cue min”). To set the boom or outrigger hydraulic pressures on a load-sensing system, begin by setting ∆P and Q-min.

Read all of the instructions before beginning any pressure settings. You will need an assistant for parts of the procedure. You and any assistants should wear eye protection when setting pressures.

NOTE!

Any time you set pressures for any circuit on any unit, the hydraulic oil should be at normal operating temperature (40°–60° C). Instructions on heating the hydraulic oil are found in the first step of this “checking hydraulic pressures” segment.

WARNING Entanglement hazard. Stop drive shafts before adjusting Delta P on A11VO pump.

Do not adjust Delta P or Q-min if your boom is running as you like it. The pressure setting procedure uses a standard starting point and must be fine tuned from that point. The pressure was fine tuned at the factory and should not be adjusted unless absolutely necessary. Start by turning off the engine and putting the key in your pocket; then place a “Do Not Operate” sign on the windshield of the truck. Install a 0-400 bar gauge in the high pressure test port at the bottom of the boom control block (Figure 279). Install a second 0-400 bar gauge (Figure 279) in the port marked “LS” (load-sensing). Delta P is adjusted on the pressure regulator (Figure 307) if your unit has an A11VO boom pump. When all personnel are clear of the truck, restart the engine, engage the pumps, and increase the engine speed to max RPM. Activate any boom cylinder to maximum speed and read both gauges as the boom section moves. The difference between the two pressures should be 20 bar + or - 5. If adjustment is required, loosen the jam nut, and adjust the screw inward to increase pressure or outward to decrease pressure until the boom runs smoothly.

Pressure Settings If pressure cannot be set correctly, there is a problem with the regulator itself. Contact the Schwing Service Department to determine how to continue. If the boom does not run smoothly at 20 bar, you must fine tune the adjustment. Remove the gauge, and turn the ∆P adjustment screw until the boom is responsive and smooth. After adjusting, the difference between the gauges (reinstalled) must read between 14-25 bar. The electronics in the control system can also affect how the boom operates, so if ∆P adjustment does not seem to help, reset to 20 bar and check the electrical settings. When the electrical settings are verified, you could again try to refine the boom action with the ∆P adjustment.

NOTE! If you don’t have a 0-100 bar gauge, you can order one from Schwing Spare Parts Department at (800) 328-9635, part # 10004659.

Setting Q-min Check Q-min when the engine is at maximum specified RPM. You must not adjust Q-min with the drive shafts turning! Each time the Q-min screw must be adjusted, the engine must be stopped, or at least the transmission must be taken out of gear so that the drivelines stop turning. 1. All boom functions must be in neutral, and all emergency stop buttons should be up (not engaged). Clear away all personnel, start the truck engine, engage the pumps, and bring engine RPM to max. Read the pressure at the 0–600 bar main boom gauge port (Figure 384) with a 0-100 bar gauge. Pressure should be at 40–45 bar. If no adjustment is needed, be sure the jam nut on the Q-min screw is tight, then continue to set the rest of the boom and outrigger pressures. If adjustment is needed, continue to the next step. 2. Turn the Q-min screw (Figure 385) in to raise the pressure. Turn it out to lower the pressure. Be sure that you stop the drive shafts from turning each time before making the adjustment. When pressure is correct, tighten the jam nut on the adjustment screw before continuing with the other procedures; then, recheck ∆P to make sure that it hasn’t changed during the Q-min adjustment.

Pressure Settings

Setting the agitator pressure

000359.eps

WARNING Tipping hazard. Never set outrigger pressures with the boom unfolded. Pressure setting procedure requires retraction of an outrigger jacking cylinder.

After the boom circuit is properly set, you can set the outrigger pressure. Find the relief cartridge located on the front of the passenger side outrigger control valve (Figure 312). 1. Attach 0-600 bar whip gauge to the gauge port below the outrigger valve bank. 2. Push the outrigger enable button. 3. Activate an outrigger jacking cylinder to retract. By retracting a fully retracted cylinder, the oil coming from the pump has nowhere to go but over the relief valve. You cannot use an extension or slewing cylinder because they have secondary relief functions (nonadjustable) built into the valve. While holding the handle to retract, read the pressure gauge. 4. The pressure should read the bar value shown on the hydraulic schematic. Adjust by loosening the jam nut and turning the cartridge (Figure 312) in or out. When the proper pressure is achieved, let go of the handle, and release the outrigger enable button.

Outrigger valve relief cartridge

The agitator circuit has a maximum pressure shown on the hydraulic schematic, which is limited by the relief cartridge (Figure 314) in the agitator hand valve. The relief cartridge is located on the back side of the agitator manual control handle (Figure 314). The cartridge is adjustable with just a 19mm open end wrench. 1. Plug the 0–600 bar whip gauge into the gauge port (Figure 314) for checking or setting agitator pressure. 2. Locate the agitator shutoff valve (Figure 331), and close it. If your unit does not have a shutoff valve, order one from the Schwing Spare Parts Department using part numbers 10004680 (valve) and 30303432 (tube). Contact the Service Department for installation instructions. If you can’t wait for a shutoff valve, you will need to remove one of the hoses from the agitator motor and plug the hose and open fitting with approved hydraulic dead plugs (Figure 332).

NOTE! Do not jam the paddles to force the oil over relief by stopping the movement of the agitator. 3. Increase the throttle to any speed above idle. Activate the agitator valve handle in either forward or reverse, and read the gauge. If it does not read the specified pressure, adjustment is required. Turn the entire relief valve cartridge (Figure 314) in to increase pressure or out to decrease pressure. 4. When the pressure is set, deactivate the agitator by placing the manual control handle in the neutral position. 5. Remove the whip gauge. 6. Reopen the shutoff valve or remove the dead plugs, and reconnect the capped hydraulic line. Agitator Relief Valve

6. After the truck engine is stopped, go back to the accumulator circuit hydraulic pump pressure regulator (Figure 232), and turn the screw back out two-and-one-half turns. This restores it to its original setting. 7. Clear all personnel from the drive line area, start the truck, and bring the engine RPM up to maximum. 8. Read the pressure on the accumulator gauge. It should read the proper accumulator system pressure. 9. If adjustment is needed, you must stop the truck engine, or a least stop the drive lines from turning, each and every time you approach the accumulator circuit hydraulic pump. Turn the screw in to increase the pressure or out to decrease pressure. Lock the jam nut when the pressure is correct. Note: The accumulator circuit hydraulic pump pressure regulator is referred to as the pressure cut-off.

Electrical Information Boom Control Systems and the Advantages of Each Manual Controls Manual Black and White (On-Off) System: • Totally, completely reliable. • Electrical malfunctions are impossible.

Cable Remote Controls Remote Controlled Black and White System: • Operator can go to the location with the best possible view of the boom and job. • Allows mobility to move around the unit. Analog Proportional Remote Control System: • Infinitely variable speed control. • No need to use the “feathering” technique of speed control. • Start and stop the boom with smooth acceleration and deceleration. • Hydraulic stroke limiter can be adjusted from the remote box. Digital Proportional Remote Control System: • Less susceptible to external noise interference (from radio transmitters, for example). • Cable requires only 6 wires, instead of 25. One for power, one for ground, two for the emergency stop circuit, and two for data transfer. • More precise adjustment of boom speed than previous systems. • Troubleshooting a non-working system can be done in minutes via a hand held test device. • Increased safety because of numeric operating principles. (Cannot go out of adjustment). • A digital system can be updated or expanded by E-prom replacement or reprogramming. (Analog systems are not possible to improve without hardware replacement). • The proportional valve amplifiers are self diagnosing via L.E.D.’s. • The boom can go slower before shut-off than with an analog system. • Digital system has built in ramp functions, which makes it impossible to accidentally go to full speed by bumping a joystick. Comfort Proportional Remote Control System • Has the Schwing information system 1. Pumped volume determination by means of stroke counter and pumped volume calculation. 2. Extensive operational data acquisition and display. 3. Safely stored malfunction list of last 100 malfuction messages. 4. Manual operation of lubricating cycles. 5. Status display of all signals of the electronic control. 6. Password-protected parameter setting for the central lubricating system 7. Password-protected parameter setting for the proportional boom fuctions. • Has the Schwing diagnostic system. 1. The diagnosis system monitors the control unit, the machine and partly also the vehicle for malfunctions or inadmissible states of operation. 2. The system recognizes e.g. parting of cables or short-circuits in electric lines of solenoids, Fault sensors, contaminated oil filters or critical hydraulic oil or diesel engine temperatures and displays different operating conditions. 3. The system is to assist the concrete pump operator in his work on site and to inform him about the possible causes of malfunctions when they occur.

Radio Remote Controls Digital Black and White Radio Remote Control System FW 16: • Operator doesn’t have to drag around a cable when moving. • The operator is not connected to the unit if a power line is contacted. (This does not protect others around the unit if contact is made). Digital Radio Remote Control System FW18: • Quicker response time than FW 16. • Greater safety than FW16, because of binary code transmissions. • Higher power output gives greater range than FW16. Digital Radio Remote Control System FW 20/24: • Radio receiver is built into the digital proportional system (no separate receiver) • Radio receiver has 2 separate frequency drivers, selectable by the operator with a switch. If interference is shutting down the system, just switch to the other frequency. • The receiver has many indicating lamps that tell the status of the radio systems. • Higher power output gives greater range and fewer interference shut-downs than FW 18. • Advanced filtration circuits cut down on interference shut-downs versus FW 18. • The antenna is internal to the remote box. Nothing external to get broken. Spread Spectrum Radio Remote System • The Schwing Spread Radio system employ frequency hopping spread spectrum technology to provide the optimum performance allowable under present FCC and ISC regulations. This technology provides a unigue performance advantage compared to conventional fixed frequency systems. The major benefits are listed below: 1. Interference Free: It cannot be jammed by other RF transmitters or extraneous noise source. 2. Coordination Free: All Schwing-spread spectrum transmitters are factory coded. The user does not need to worry about which frequency the unit is operating on. It operates as if there ia s unique frequency for each unit in existence. Any number of these units can be operated in the same location at the same time. 3. License Free: These radios are certified by the U.S. and Canadian governments to meet their criteria for license-free operation. With Spread Spectrum Technology, these radios are allowed to transmit as much power and sometimes more than conventional licensed products. This makes for very high performance reliable RF links through many types of material and over very great distances should the application require it. 4. Security: Combine the Spread Spectrum robustness with the added 16-bit address space and CRC16 error-detection code built into the data protocol, and these units provide extremely reliable, error-free control.

Introduction to Proportional Controls The difference between the proportional and the black and white control is the function performed from the signal. With the black and white control, the signal will be either on or off only. With the proportional control, the function will vary according to the movement given to the potentiometer by the Joystick. The proportional system can be broken down into 3 major components. They are as follows:

A. The Joystick with the Potentiometer. B. The Proportional amplifier C. The Solenoid valves. The Joystick with Potentiometer There is a 15 volt supply at connection 1 of the potentiometer (See Figure). If you tilt the Joystick up and down, the voltage going into the amplifier will be changed (input signal - connection 2 of the potentiometer). Simultaneously, when the N.O. micro-switch is closed the relay on the power supply card is switched and the circuit is activated.

The Proportional Amplifier in Use with the Radio The signal from the radio remote control to the proportional amplifier is 12 V±6 V, instead of 7.5 V± with the cable remote control. For instance:

1.5 V as

• Boom up 12 V → 6V

• Boom down 12 V → 18 V In order to make the proportional controls work with these input voltages, we need to switch relays on the proportional amplifier cards. This is accomplished with a bridge wired into the connecting cable for the radio remote, from the receiver to the operator’s control panel. The bridge is wired in the plug that connects to the control panel. It is because of this bridge that two different cables are required.

Calibration of Proportional Amplifier Cards Note: The average Proportional solenoid valve operates between 300 and 800 mA. 1. Push the emergency stop button (Only if not using the Schwing proportional card test meter). 2. Connect Amp meter in the circuit of the proportional function that is to be calibrated. The most convenient way to measure the current is using the Schwing proportional card test meter (ID 77706). 3. Release the Emergency Stop button. 4. Tilt the Joystick to the point that the micro-switch is in the closed position (trigger point is at I min). The circuit is now in a closed position, the LED on the proportional amplifier card is illuminated, and the current can be read on the test meter. 5. Adjust the minimum current (at the min potentiometer) to the point where the boom section just starts to move (approximately 300 - 450 mA). 6. Tilt the Joystick all the way (I max.). Adjust your maximum current (at the max potentiometer) on the proportional amplifier card (approximately 700 - 800 mA).

After adjusting the maximum current, repeat steps 4 though 6 until the correct result has been achieved. The reason for this is because as the min or max is adjusted, the other is effected. CARD 1, 2, 3 BOOM FUNCTION UP

Digital Proportional - Overview (1 of 5) Overview The term DigiProp is used to describe Schwing Americas digital proportional control system. Proportional refers to the fact that the boom adjusts it's speed in response to the movement of the joysticks. The farther the joystick is moved, the faster the boom moves. Digital means that the movement of the joystick is translated (by an analog to digital converter) to numbers (zeros and ones). Once translated to numbers the signal moves into a processor not unlike a computer. The processor responds to the joystick movements and compares them to a set of values that are preprogrammed into memory. It then translates the numbers into a signal that is fed to the coils of the hydraulic valves. See Figure 1.

Digital systems have definite advantages over the analog proportional system found on older machines. Because everything is translated into numbers, there can be no mis-adjustments. Instead of adjusting a trim pot to fine tune the response, you simply enter in the parameters that you want, and the processor takes care of the rest. In addition, the zeros and ones (referred to as “bits”) travel to the processor in groups (referred to as “bytes”). Each bit in the byte tells the processor something about the condition of the machine. If you could translate one of the bytes into plain English, it would look something like this: “I am a Schwing with an ID number of 7. Emergency stop is not activated. Concrete pump is activated in forward. Boom #3 retract joystick is activated to 48% travel. Boom #2 extend joystick is activated to 85% travel.”

The processor updates these signals many times per second. The byte always starts with the identification of the system (“I am a Schwing”) so that electrical “noise” from the surrounding area cannot activate a function. Some types of noise that could send a false signal are cellular phones, garage door openers, police radar, etc. Because of the identification process, however, these false signals are ignored. See Figure 2. Digital Code

Processor Unit The digital control system is housed in the device called the Processor unit. The processor unit replaces the relay enclosure found on analog systems. This processor unit contains various types of electronic function cards and the optional radio receiver. The SCV9 card is the master card in the system. Its function is to coordinate the entire system by decoding instructions from the operator control panels, then sending commands to the appropriate slave cards. The SCV9 card holds all the programmed settings. It has been programmed at the factory for your specific machine. Replacement cards contain generic settings. In an emergency, they can be used as is, but they should be programmed to match the hydraulic system on your machine. The HC2 and DG8 cards are known as slave cards because they receive commands from the master card, SCV9. See Figure 4

The HC2 cards provide proportional control of the placing boom and concrete pump output. The HC2 cards send a 50 milliamp diagnostic signal, generated by the SCV9 card, which continuously tests the various proportional electrical circuits. The DG8 cards provide on/off control of the concrete pump, horns, motors and other accessories. Each of the slave cards control specific functions which are determined by their location in the digital processor unit. The card positions (numbered horizontally) are also used when troubleshooting with the M.A.T. to indicate the location of communication errors. The vertical numbers on the right of the drawing indicate the output channels for the slave card functions. See Figure 5.

Control System Arrangement The arrangement of the control systems is shown in Figure 6 below. You can see that the control system is made up of individual function blocks. Each block is an electronic card. Data is transferred between the cards via the RS485 bus shown in the diagram. The entire coordination of the system is performed by the SCV card which is the “MASTER” of the control system. The HC2 and DG8 cards are “SLAVE” cards that receive commands from the MASTER and pass them on to the machine. All parameters, i.e. machine-specific settings and functions are stored in and managed by the MASTER, which is the SCV card, therefore, it is possible to exchange any SLAVE card for another SLAVE card of the same type without altering any functions or settings in the control system. All parameters can only be adjusted or changed in the SCV card. All external control instructions are sent by either the BDI-F (cable remote control), the BDI-A (rear panel control), or radio remote interface in the SCV card to the SCV MASTER via the bus system. The SCV master card accepts these control instructions, and based on the parameters stored, sends them via the RS 485 bus to the appropriate slave card (HC2 or DG8). The slave cards then send an acknowledgment back to the SCV card as to whether or not they can properly follow the control instruction . Digital Control Unit Proportional Control

Menu Structure Looking at the menu structure you can see it is laid out in columns. This was done to make it easier to follow the multitude of existing parameters and entries, that are combined into the submenus and main menus. See Figure 8. The menu system consists of: • • • • •

Controller Selection Main Menu Submenus Parameters Entries

The controller selection is marked by an asterisk (*) in the first digit of the M.A.T. display when using software version 2.4. In software versions 2.2 and 2.3, a question mark will display in the first digit. Menus have a question mark (?) displayed in the first digit. Entries are information from the system that cannot be externally changed (similar to measured values obtained by the connection of instruments). Parameters are adjustable values which must be set to the conditions found on the machine (e.g., valve currents).

The following individual entries can be found: “SCV_S” = This entry indicates which hardware (which card) and which software (program) can be found. This entry allows for opening the service menu: 1.Pressing key “P” once: “SCV_S menu” 2.Pressing key “C” once: “SCV_S menu” 3.Pressing key “⇑” once: “NO500” 4.Enter and save the code number (530) as for normal parameters “V2.4x” = This entry indicates what software version is found. (See Explanation of Different Software Versions). “TYPXXX” = This entry indicates what type of unit the card is currently programmed to. No re-programming is possible here! Types of units which can be indicated:NORMBoom 2 / 3 changeover R_A2Boom 2 ramp control “hh : mm : ss” = This entry indicates the time of operation since the last reset or restart. “USAGE XX” = This entry indicates the current usage of the bus system in percent (0...99). “!RESET” = By selecting this item, a so-called warm start can be initiated, i.e. the system is brought to the same condition as after turning on the supply voltage. ! N E W”

= Selecting this item brings all parameters in the system to factory-set default.

SERVICE TRAINING In such case, the system will request you to acknowledge by the same keys if you really want to change the parameters.

“?GERAET” Main Menu (In Service Menu Only!) After selecting the “?GERAET” main menu, you can scroll the individual submenus and entries with the “⇑” and “⇓” keys. In the “?GERAET” main menu, all unit-specific settings are concentrated. The following individual entries can be found: “TYP

XXX” = The type of equipment can be selected here: NORM Boom 2 / 3 changeover R_A2 Boom 2 ramp control Default: NORM

“REP

OFF”

= This serves to select the concrete pump on-site control mode. If on-site control is to be activated by a release switch, this parameter must be programmed “ON”. Default: OFG

“RWK 0”

= This switches off the optional agitator (0), and activates it for simple functioning forward only / 1), or for extended functioning (forward and reverse / 2). Default: 0

“FHYS 2.0”

= This serves to set the hysteresis compensation factory within the range from 1.0 to 10.0. Default 2.0

“IVOR 50”

= This serves to set the driver current within the range from 0 to 200mA. Default: 50 mA

V2.4 Menus The V2.4x software version has two different levels of access, the customer menu and the service menu. The customer menu has the parameter settings for the current that is used for driving the hydraulic valves. These settings are changeable from the customer menu in the “?PAR” portion of the main menu. The customer menu also allows you to view non-changeable entries such as inputs to and outputs from the “SCV” card. The customer menu only allows you access to the “SCV” card. The service menu allows you to access some extra troubleshooting entries in the “SCV” card along with all HCL and DG cards. Along with this, you can also view the BDI_A (rear operators panel card and the BDI_F (cable remote) card. On the following pages containing the 2.4 menu structure, the service menu entries are all the entries in the shaded boxes. All the entries in the unshaded boxes can be accessed from the customer or the service menu. To access the service menu, do the following: 1. From the “SCV” entry in the controller column, you press the “P” button. This will bring up the “?PAR” entry in the main menu column. 2. Press the arrow key down “⇓” until the “?SYSTEM” entry is displayed on the mat. 3. Press “P” to display “SCV_S”. 4. Press the “P” key one, then the “C” key once, and finally the arrow up “⇑” key once. The display should now read NR500. 5. Press the “P” key and a dotted line will appear under the NR500. 6. Press the arrow up “⇑” key until the display reads NR530. 7. Press the “P” key and a dashed line will appear under the NR530. You now have access to all entries in the customer and service entries. Every time the unit is reset, either by shutting off the power and turning it back on, or my using the reset function in the mat, you will automatically be in the customer menu and must re-enter the code to access the service menu.

Software Versions There are a few different software versions used on the digital proportional units. The SCV cards have versions 2.2x, 2.3x and 2.4x. The x denotes that there could be another digit in that location, for example 2.46 or 2.48. The earlier versions (2.2x and 2.3x) have a ? in front of the SCV display on the MAT. The 2.4x version will have a * in front of the SCV displayed on the MAT. You can also see what version software you have by scrolling to the “system” entry in the main menu column. Version 2.3x and 2.4x can be used in place of a version 2.2x. The 2.2x and 2.3x version cannot be used in a unit that has ramp functions for boom controls or remote agitator control, as used in the 52m’s. The 2.2x and 2.3x also cannot be used in units that have on site activation switches. On the following pages there is one menu structure for the 2.2x and 2.3x version and one menu structure for the 2.4x version. The BDI cards or the cards used for the rear panel and remote control box can also have various versions. The versions are either 1.xx or 2.xx. In the 1.xx version the cards were specific to their location, ie., the BDIA card was used for the rear panel and the BDIF card was used for the remote box. The 2.xx version is called BDI S and it can be programmed to be used in the rear panel or remote box. The versions are interchangeable, however the 1.xx version cannot be used in systems with remote agitator controls as used in the 52m. The HCL and DG cards have different versions and they are interchangeable and compatible with all SCV card version

Digital Proportional - Balancing Valve Currents Balancing The Valve Currents With the digital proportional control system, you no longer have to adjust trim pots to fine tune control response. You can now simply enter the parameters you want and the microprocessor takes care of the rest. This is called balancing the valve currents, and it is necessary to provide precise synchronization between joystick control and boom movement. Incorrect valve current settings will have an adverse affect on the proportionality of the boom. There are three adjustments or parameters to set for each boom section as well as for slewing and concrete output. They are the: • • •

Minimum start current. Minimum stop current. And maximum driver current.

The minimum start current controls how the boom reacts as the joystick is moved from the neutral position. It is the lowest level of driver current required to start the boom moving. Moving the joystick from the neutral position activates a micro switch. Immediately after the micro switch is activated the current should be at the minimum start level. This will provide linear proportional control when setting the boom in motion. See Figure 13.

If the minimum start current is set too low, the boom will not move with the joystick. This results in a “dead spot” as the joystick is moved off the neutral position and the micro switch is activated. Setting the minimum start current too high will cause the boom to start abruptly and bounce after the micro switch has been activated. The minimum stop current controls how the boom slows to a stop as the joystick is moved to the neutral position. It is the precise point at which the driver current falls below the level necessary to keep the boom in motion. When the driver current reaches this setting, the micro switch should open. This causes the system to go to the 50 milliamp diagnostic level. If the minimum stop current is set too high, the boom will be moving too fast when the micro switch closes, causing it to stop abruptly and bounce. If it is set too low, the boom will stop before the micro switch closes, and you will have an increased dead area.

Hysteresis Because of the inertia generated by the weight of the boom, the system responds differently when increasing the driver current (accelerating the boom) than it does to decreasing driver current (slowing the boom). This difference in response is referred to as hysteresis. To provide smooth transitions when controlling boom speed, a hysteresis compensation factor is programmed into the system. This setting is located in the “FHYS 2.0” submenu, but the value should not be changed.

Diagnostic Signal Part of the systems self diagnostic ability is a result of a 50 mA driver current programmed into the system. This diagnostic current is applied to both values on axis at the same time. This small amount of current is not enough to run the boom; however, it does allow the system to detect an open circuit such as a broken wire or faulty solenoid.

Setting Valve Currents The procedure for setting the valve currents requires the use of the M.A.T. and menu survey. First, find the value you want to adjust in the display column of the menu survey. These are located in the P-A-R section of the main menu.Then chart a course back to the SCV9 starting point. Use the M.A.T. to scroll to the desired location and observe the current value. Use the following procedure to change the setting: 7.

Electrical 8. 9.

Press the arrow keys to adjust the value up or down to the desired setting. If you make a mistake, press the “C” key to start over. When the parameter is set to the desired value, press the program key again. The dotted line changes to a dashed line indicating the change has been saved.

After setting the driver currents, check the operation of the hydraulic valve by watching the boom and the handle on the hydraulic valve as you move the joy stick. The boom should just start to move as you move the joy stick off neutral and you hear the micro switch activate. Then move the joy stick to the 100% position, the handle on the hydraulic valve should just contact the maximum stop. Correctly balancing the valve currents precisely tailors the digital controller to the hydraulic system on your unit. This provides smooth proportional control of boom functions and concrete output. The initial settings that were programmed into your machine are located on a decal near the digital processor. See Figure 16.

Troubleshooting procedure 1 If one boom function is not working and the LED’s are steady green, you’ll need to use the M.A.T. and menu survey to pinpoint the problem. To do this, first connect the M.A.T. and scroll to the P-A-R main menu, then to the affected boom display. Check the minimum start, stop and max current parameters. They should approximate the values written on the decal. If not, reprogram the function to the correct values. If the parameters are set correctly, scroll to the P-OUT main menu, then to the affected boom display. Move the joystick and watch the value. When the joystick is at the neutral position, the reading should be 50, indicating the 50 milliamp diagnostic current. As the joystick is moved towards the 100% position, the reading should rise to the max current setting. If these functions are not correct, try using the other remote control panel. If that doesn’t help or the readings are correct but the boom function still is not working, check the output current of the affected HC 2 card.

Troubleshooting procedure 2 If none of the control functions are working and the SCV9 card is steady green, but the other cards are off, it indicates a communication error between SCV9 and one or more of the slave cards. To locate the problem, connect the M.A.T. and scroll to the INS main menu. Then scroll to the C-E-R-R display which is the entry for communication errors. The number in the display indicates the position to the right of the SCV 9 card where the first error occurred. To determine if the problem is on the card, swap it into another position of the same card type and reset the system. If the error follows to the new position, the board is defective. If the error is still in the same position, call Schwing Service for assistance.

Troubleshooting procedure 3 If the card that controls the problem function is flashing, along with the SCV9 card, there is a hardware fault somewhere between the output of the digital processor and the hydraulic valve. To determine if the problem is the solenoid or the wiring, swap the solenoid caps. If the problem is unchanged, replace the solenoid. If the problem follows the solenoid caps, the problem is in the wiring. If this is the case, you should consult the electrical schematics to track the faulty wire.

Troubleshooting procedure 4 If the SCV9 is the only card flashing, it means the problem is intermittent, possibly a bad connection. It continues to flash because it stores fault information in its memory until the system is reset. Because of the sensitivity of the system the SCV light may blink for various reasons, if resetting the system does not clear the problem refer to troubleshooting procedure 3. Resetting the system can be accomplished either by turning the power off and on, or by using the M.A.T.

Electrical Troubleshooting The Radio

The radio remote consists of a transmitter built into the battery powered remote control and a receiver built into the digital processing unit. All commands transmitted are safety coded, that is they contain an identifier, so that the unit will only respond to commands from the correct remote control. The receiver checks the command and passes it on only if it is complete and correct. If there is interference, the unit will automatically shut down, however, there are two frequencies available that can be switched at the remote control. See Figure 18. When using the radio remote, it is important to stay within a safe operating range, always knowing where the boom is.

E- stop LED

There are 3 LED’s on the radio remote. The one on the left warns you when the radio battery voltage is getting low. The center LED indicates when a digital message is being sent. The E-stop LED lights when the emergency stop on the transmitter has been pressed. The rechargeable transmitter battery will operate the system for about 8 hours, depending on the age of the batteries and the operating conditions. When the battery warning light starts to flash, you have about thirty minutes operating time left before the unit shuts down due to low battery voltage. The battery charger is located in the cab of the truck. See Figure 19.

1.0 Working with the info & diagnosis system 1.1 Introduction into the info & diagnosis system

The SCHWING info & diagnosis system for truck-mounted concrete pumps is located in the rear panel unit at the rear step-ladder of the machine and is operated with the display and the 6 function buttons below.

The info system offers the following functions : -Pumped volume determination by means of stroke counter and pumped volume calculation (cf. 1.2.3) -Extensive operational data acquisition and display (cf. 1.2.4) -Safely stored malfunction list of the last 100 malfunction messages (cf. 1.2.5) -Manual operation of lubricating cycles (cf. 1.2.6) -Status display of all signals of the electric control (cf. 1.2.7 & 3.0) -Password-protected efficiency adjustment for the pumped volume determination of the concrete pump (cf. 2.0) -Password-protected parameter setting for the central lubricating system (cf. 2.0) -Password-protected parameter setting for the proportional boom functions (cf. 2.0)

The diagnosis system monitors the control unit, the machine and partly also the vehicle for malfunctions or inadmissible states of operation. The system recognizes e.g. parting of cables or short-circuits in electric lines of solenoids, Fault sensors, contaminated oil filters or critical hydraulic oil or diesel engine temperatures and displays different operating conditions. The system is to assist the concrete pump operator in his work on site and to inform him about the possible causes of malfunctions when they occur. The malfunction messages are displayed as continuous text in the form of an easily understandable plain language message with additional fault code. The manual contains a detailed description of the faults for each fault code (cf 4.0) In case of recognized malfunctions, the diagnosis system distinguishes between minor faults and severe faults. Minor faults do not require immediate elimination of the fault cause and the machine can be used - possibly with some restrictions - until the job is finished A severe fault bears the risk that the machine or the vehicle may be severely damaged. An immediate elimination of the fault cause is therefore necessary. If the integrated diagnosis system recognizes a malfunction or an inadmissible state of operation of the machine, a horn sounds intermittently and a fault message appears on the display of the rear panel unit. Moreover, the last 100 recognized malfunctions are stored safely in a malfunction list together with date and time. They can be recalled at any time.

In case of a minor fault, the horn signal and the fault message can be switched off by means of the "Hupe / quitt" button on the remote control box or the cable control box. Switching off the horn does not delete the fault message. To prevent fault messages from getting lost, a fault message is recalled whenever one of the two "hydraulic on outriggers" buttons (at the outrigger control block) is recalled and displayed, and until the operator has read the fault message displayed and acknowledged the message at the rear panel stand with the [QUITT] button below the display. Pressing the [QUITT] button once only shuts off the horn signal with the fault message still being displayed. Only after the [QUITT] button has been depressed a second time, the fault message is deleted from the display. In the event of severe faults, the horn signal cannot be cancelled with the buttons on the remote control box. The operator can therefore recognize severe faults by the fact that the horn signal continues to sound although the [Hupe / quitt] button on the remote control box or the cable control box has been actuated. Since severe faults cause considerable damage of the machine, the concrete pump operator must inform himself at the display of the diagnosis system on the machine about the fault occurred. In the event of severe faults, the horn signal can be cancelled and the fault message be deleted only with the [QUITT] button below the diagnosis display. Fault messages are also definitely cancelled when the electric control system is switched off. The operator himself is responsible for the elimination of indicated faults in order to prevent the machine from being damaged. If the message of a fault that has not been eliminated is being cancelled, there is no new fault indication. A persistant fault will however be recognized and reported again by the diagnosis system after the machine has been de-activated with the EMERGENCY SHUT-OFF button on the machine or on the remote control box. SCHWING is not responsible for damage caused by non-eliminated faults of the machine !

2.2 Setting the concrete pump efficiency for pumped volume determination

The volumetric efficiency of the pumped volume calculation (efficiency CP) of the concrete pump can be set in this parameter menu. The setting acts on the pumped volume counter (PUMPED VOLUME) and on the total pumped quantity of the concrete pump (TOTAL VOL. PUMPED). The pumping volume of the concrete pump is determined by counting the pump strokes and by calculating the delivery rate by means of the pumped volume of the pumping cylinder and the CP EFFICIENCY: EFFICIENCY CP should therefore be an average value for the pump efficiency of the concrete pump depending on the most often pumped concrete qualities. [ ENTER ] activates the setting mode for the "Concrete pump efficiency" parameter. The activation of the adjusting mode is indicated by a flashing percentage for the pumped quantity efficiency in the display. The efficiency concrete pump value can then be changed in steps of 1% by pressing the [ ↓ ] [ ↑ ] keys. Depressing [ ENTER ] stores the set value and quits the adjusting mode.

2.4 Adjusting the proportional parameters for boom functions The electrical characteristics of the proportional valves can be individually adjusted for each boom function. The correct adjustment of a proportional characteristics curve requires profound machine knowledge and should only be carried out by specially trained personnel. Since a machine with wrong settings may get into unsafe operating states, SCHWING GMBH assumes no liability for events occurring as a consequence of proportional characteristics settings modified by the customer. After selection of a boom function, 4 parameters can be adjusted for each axis. For each direction (extend / retract or slew right / left) the pertaining MIN and MAX value of the proportional characteristics curve can be set. Depending on the proportional valves installed in the machine, there are two different methods of setting the prop value parameters. For prop-current-controlled valves (e.g. REXROTH) the characteristic values are set as current values in mA (valve type: PROP). For PWM-controlled valves (e.g. APITECH) the characteristic values are set as percentages of the PWM ratio (valve type: PULSAR). [ ENTER ] activates the adjusting mode for a prop parameter. The activation of the adjusting mode is indicated by a flashing prop parameter value in the display. The set value can then be changed by depressing [ ↓ ] [ ↑ ] by 10 mA resp. 1 % for the selected prop parameter. Depressing [ ENTER ] stores the set value and quits the adjusting mode.

The adjusting ranges of the prop current values are limited as follows : - Current value for "I min" within 250 mA to 1000 mA. (The set value must be less than the value for "I max") - Current value for "I max" within 500 mA to 1500 mA. (The set value must be greater than the value for "I min")

The adjusting ranges of the PWM percentages are limited as follows : - Value for "PWM min" in a range of 20 % to 60 %. (The set value must be less than the value for "PWM max") - Value for "PWM max" in a range of 40 % to 100 %. (The set value must be greater than the value for "PWM min")

The following examples illustrate changes of the proportional values for the BOOM SLEWING MECHANISM for valves of the PROP type and for BOOM SECTION 1 for valves of the PULSAR type.

Electrical 4.0 Fault messages and fault causes 4.1Introduction

Each fault message has its own fault code permitting to obtain further information about a special fault from this list. This fault code consists of the machine section identification, a number and the fault category ! A fault message is shown on the rear panel display as follows : MALFUNCTION !!! (CODE) FAULT MESSAGE

"MALFUNCTION" flashing Fault code and continuous malfunction message text !

The following letters identify the machine section: S = System F = Remote control A = General machine D = Truck engine or PTO

B = Concrete pump M = Boom control Z = Central lubrication E = Extensions

Three fault categories can be displayed: L = minor fault, horn cancelling from control box possible. (rectification of fault cause required only upon completion of job !) S = severe fault, horn cancelling from control box not possible. (immediate rectification of fault cause required !) M = operating fault, only message displayed, cancelling not required. (no storage of fault in diagnosis system !)

Example : B01S

B 01 S

= machine section "concrete pump" = number 01 = fault category "severe"

Meaning of the "Disconnected" or "Overload" fault messages The "Disconnected" fault is reported when the cable from this output to the relay / solenoid is broken. This fault can only be detected when the output is not activated ! The cause of this fault is either a broken cable or a disconnected solenoid connector ! The "Overload" fault is reported when an inadmissibly high current has been detected for this output. This fault can only be detected when the output is activated! The cause of this fault is either a short-circuit in the electric cable to the relay / solenoid or a defect of the solenoid coil (charred) ! This applies to all following faults reported as "Disconnected" or "Overload" faults !!!

In the event of a system fault, the electric control of the truck-mounted concrete pump should be switched off once for ca. 5 secs. with the key-operated switch in the driver's cab. This fault message may have the following causes: - power supply to one of the modules interrupted (check fuse !) - electronic components on module Fault, e.g. storage defect(replace module !) - communication fault with central module(replace module!)

When and E-stop is pushed, all hydraulic functions of the machine will stop. Do not use the emergency stop for an on/off switch. It is for emergencies only. In normal operating conditions, always stop the machine functions with the controls provided for that purpose.

If the problem is actually a bad solenoid, the pilot signal to the dump valve can be overridden by having one person push and hold the override handle on the Estop manifold while the other person activates the manual controls for the nonworking system.

Figure 8 Bypass key switch location

If there is a malfunction in the E-stop circuit and the dump valves (in the E-stop manifold) open, oil will be routed from the hydraulic pump directly back to the tank. The dump valves also open when any emergency stop button is pushed. If the dump valves open and the machine cannot be repaired immediately, the power supply to the dump valves can be reactivated by using the bypass switch (Figure 8). By activating the bypass key switch to the bypass position, you send power to the solenoid of the normally open dump valve. If the solenoid is functional the dump valve will close and you should be able to fold up the boom and outriggers with the manual controls. 642

Service Manual Options box

The bottom of the two switches (Figure 11) is used to control the function of the optional concrete shut-off valve. The three position switch allows the operator to control the function of the valve in three different modes: • Position number “1” is “Auto-mode”. This mode should be used for normal operation. The shut-off valve will work in relationship to the concrete pump on-off switch. When the machine is pumping, the concrete shut-off valve is open and when the pump is stopped, power is removed from the solenoid and the valve inflates to stop concrete from draining out of the boom. The valve can be overridden via the remote box. If you are standing near the boom with the remote box and wish to drain the concrete from the boom, activate the switch in Figure 12 to the down position which is the concrete shut-off icon and the valve will open. The switch is located to the left of the E-stop button on the remote box. Concrete shut-off valve disable switch

Position number “2” closes the valve full time.

NOTE! Concrete shut-off valve switch

Do not activate the concrete pump in this mode with full air pressure on the valve. Damage could occur! •

Figure 11 Concrete shut-off valve switch

Position number three supplies power to the concrete shut-off valve full time and disables the valve. This position can be used instead of the disable switch shown in Figure 12, to allow the boom to drain prior to inserting a cleanout ball, or any time the concrete needs to be removed from the boom by gravity.
