Steering Cylinders Retract (Straight)
The steering pins must be disengaged first, before steering
arms can be positioned. Move the stop pins to desired
steering position. When steering switch is held in the DOWN
straight position, an input signal is sent to the PC. A 12-volt
output signal from PC enables the steering solenoid valve
HS-43 to retract right side and left side steering arm
cylinders. Internal pilot supply pressure of 200 psi (14 bar)
enables selected spool to shift the steering arm retract
solenoid valve.
The crane PC sends an output signal to shift crane auxiliary
system disable valve HS-12, to block valve bypass.
Accessory system pressure increases to operate accessory
items. An in line relief valve set at 1,200 psi (83 bar) reduces
the auxiliary system pressure to steering arm cylinders.
Accessory system fluid enters MAX-ER accessory valve and
goes through steering solenoid valve to the rod end of the
steering cylinders to retract steering cylinders and move
steering arms to straight position. Return fluid from piston
end of cylinders pass through MAX-ER accessory valve
before returning to crane hydraulic tank through return line.
Release steering switch to stop retracting steering arms
when stop is reached. When the steering arms are
positioned, the steering pins must be engaged.
