Jack Cylinder(s) Retract
When the selected left, right, center, or all switch is held in
the DOWN (retract) position, an input signal is sent to the
PC. A 12 V output signal from the PC enables the jack
cylinder retract solenoid HS-45, HS-47, and/or HS-49.
Internal pilot supply pressure of 14 bar (200 psi) enables the
spool to shift the selected jack cylinder solenoid valve(s).
Internal sequence valve and shuttle valve for each spool
valve controls each system pressure when more than one
valve is operated at a time. The crane’s PC sends an output
signal to shift the crane’s auxiliary system disable-relief valve
HS-12 to block the valve’s bypass. Accessory system
pressure increases to operate the accessory items.
Accessory system fluid enters the MAX-ER’s accessory
valve and flows to the free-flow check valve section of the
counterbalance valve. Fluid pressure on the rod end of the
selected jack cylinder retracts the jack cylinder to lower the
counterweight trailer.
Fluid from the piston end of the jack cylinder is blocked by
the free-flow check valve section of the counterbalance valve
and flow-restraining section of the relief valve preset for a
relief setting of 138 bar (2,000 psi). Piston-end cylinder
pressure opens the restraining section of the counterbalance
valve, allowing fluid to exit the valve. Return hydraulic fluid
then passes through the MAX-ER’s accessory valve before
returning to the crane’s hydraulic tank through the return line.
When the jack cylinder is retracted the desired distance,
release the selected jack switch to the OFF position to lock
the jack cylinder(s) in position. Trapped hydraulic pressure at
the piston end of the jack cylinder counterbalance valve
supports the weight and gravity force of the counterweight
trailer.
