At the bottom of the lift cylinder is a cut-off valve (See Fig.9-9), which operates
when the high-pressure hose bursts for any reason to prevent the load from dropping
down abruptly. The oil from the lift cylinder flows through small holes in the
circumference of the cut-off valve spool and produce a pressure difference between
two chambers. As the pressure difference as result of passing the holes is smaller than
