Smooth Ride System
Smooth Ride System (SRS) will enhance the
comfort of the ride by damping out the forces
imposed on the machine by the movement of the
loader arms as the machine travels over uneven
surfaces.
This is achieved by connecting the head side of the
loader arms 1 to a pressurised piston type
accumulator 2.
When a switch in the cab is operated, selector
valve 3 is energised and opens. Hydraulic oil from
the piston head side is dead ended at the loader
valve block 4 but is connected to the accumulator.
The rod side of the loader ram is connected to tank
T via the selector valve to make up or dissipate oil
as required.
Note: The smooth ride system will not function on
machines fitted with hose burst check valves.
