NBT30H-2 SERVICE MANUAL HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
If the problem is two or three circuits, check each circuit
separately. After a circuit is checked, use caps or plugs to
remove that circuit from the system. Continue to next circuit
down the line until the problem is found.
NOTE: Do not remove the main relief valve from the circuit.
The relief valve must be kept in the circuit to inhibit
damage to the pump and other components.
