connect a 0 -5000 psi (0 - 345 bar) to the test connection
on the pressure side of the telescope/outrigger section
of the hydraulic pump (Figure 4-15).
2. Start the engine and accelerate it to full rpm.
3. Actuate the boom lift control to fully lower the boom.
Hold the control in position and observe the pressure
gauge attached to the pump outlet. The relief valve
should open at 3500 ± 50 psi (241 ± 3.5 bar). Release
the control lever after the reading is obtained.
