VALVES
General
This subsection provides descriptive information for all the
hydraulic valves used on this crane. For a listing of all valves,
the circuit they are used in and their physical location, refer
to (Table 2-2). Refer to (Figure 2-14) for valve locations. The
description of each valve given here is for the valve itself. For
information on how each valve functions in the individual
circuits, refer to the description and operation procedures of
that circuit.
NOTE: On each valve illustration in this section, each item
number in table correlates to location on the valve,
and to the valve hydraulic schematic.
