Bucket part reversing valve is a 6/3 valve, which can control the forward tilt, backward tilt and holding of the bucket. Boom part reversing valve is a 6/4 valve, which can control the lifting, holding, lowering and floating of boom. Spring in the boom return sleeve can press the steel ball to the two ends and keep the ball stuck in the V-groove of locating sleeve inwall, so the boom part slide valve element can be fixed in any action position of the four movements. A check valve is designed in inlet port of bucket part reversing valve and boom part reversing valve respectively, the check valves are pressed against the valve seat by spring. Check valve can prevent 9-16

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader hydraulic oil reflux during reversing to overcome “dive” phenomenon. Besides, check valve can produce backpressure for oil returning to keep the system stable.

Working principle of multiandem valve 1) Neutral position (sealed position) The position of bucket slide valve rod and boom slide valve rod is shown in Fig. 9-35. Two both ends of bucket cylinder and boom cylinder are sealed, the two cylinders remain at a certain position, hydraulic oil from working pump flows from port P to port T through the middle oil gallery and then flows back to oil tank. At this point, safety valve is closed, and the system circulates without load.

Fig. 9-35 Cutaway view of multitandem valve 2) Bucket forward tilt Bucket slide valve moves toward right to seal oil duct IV, VI and V; connect oil duct II and III; and connect oil duct VIII and IX. Pressure oil flows from port P into oil duct III through bucket part inlet check valve, then goes through oil duct II to multitandem valve port B1, finally enters into the bucket cylinder rod-side chamber; hydraulic oil in bucket cylinder piston-side chamber flows through multitandem valve port A1, oil duct VIII and IX through port A1, returns back to oil tank, which makes the piston rod of bucket cylinder retract to realize bucket forward tilt. 9-17

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader 3) Bucket backward tilt Bucket slide valve moves toward left to seal oil duct IV, VI and V; connect oil duct I and II; and connect oil duct VII and VIII. Pressure oil flows from port P into oil duct VII through bucket part inlet check valve, then goes through oil duct VIII to multitandem valve port A1, finally enters into the bucket cylinder piston-side chamber; hydraulic oil in bucket cylinder rod-side chamber flows through multitandem valve port B1, oil duct II and oil duct I, returns back to oil tank, which makes the piston rod of bucket cylinder extend to realize bucket backward tilt.

Fig. 9-36 Cutaway view of bucket part reversing valve 4) Boom lifting Boom slide valve moves toward left to seal oil duct III, V and IV; pressure oil flows into oil duct V through port P and bucket part middle oil duct, and goes through the check valve into oil duct VII, finally enters into the boom cylinder piston-side chamber through the multitandem valve port A2. 9-18

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader Hydraulic oil in boom cylinder rod-side chamber flows through multitandem valve port B2, oil duct II and oil duct I, return back to oil tank through multitandem valve port T, which makes the piston rod of boom cylinder extend to realize lifting of boom. 5) Boom lowering Boom slide valve moves toward right to seal oil duct III, V and IV; pressure oil flows into oil duct III through port P and bucket part middle oil duct, finally flows from oil duct II into boom cylinder rod-side chamber through the multitandem valve port B2. Hydraulic oil in boom cylinder pistonside chamber flows through multitandem valve port A2, oil duct VII and oil duct VIII, returns back to oil tank through multitandem valve port T, which makes the piston rod of boom cylinder retract to realize lowering of boom. 6) Boom floating The oil coming from oil pump goes through neutral unload groove into oil return duct and then flows back to oil tank; while the cylinder piston-side is connected to oil return duct VIII via oil duct VII, the cylinder rod-side is connected to oil return duct via middle oil duct, and zero-pressure idle loop is formed in the system. The boom cylinder works in free floating state under the action of working device’s weight and ground acting force.

Fig. 9-37 Cutaway view of boom part reversing valve 7) Main safety valve Safety valve is used to control the system pressure, it is a cartridge valve installed on the multitandem valve, and it’s a pilot operated valve that consisting of main valve part and pilot valve part. The opening and closing of main valve are controlled by the pilot valve part. When the system pressure is low and cannot overcome the pressing force of pilot valve spring to open the pilot valve, the main valve stays in close state, and there is no oil flowing through the small damping hole in the center of main valve element, thus the oil pressure on main valve element both ends is equal. Under the action of the main valve spring, the main valve element will stay in leftmost end position to close the by-pass oil duct between the upper pressure chamber and oil return chamber on valve 9-19

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader body. When the system pressure rises and overcome the pressing force of pilot valve spring to open the pilot valve, a small amount of pressure oil will flow through the small damping hole, and flows from the pilot valve opening port back to the oil return duct of oil chamber. Due to the action of small damping hole, oil pressure on the main valve element right end is less than the left end. When the right-toward acting force, which is acted on the main valve element and produced by pressure difference between the ends, is greater than the pressing force of main valve spring, main valve element will be forced right to valve port, a large amount of pressure oil will overflow back to the tank through the oil return hole, to realize the effect of overload safety protection. The set pressure of safety valve is 18MPa. When the system pressure is lower than the set pressure of safety valve, the pilot valve closes, the oil to the small damping hole stops flowing, the pressure difference disappears and the main valve element resets.

8) Overload oil supplementary valve Overload oil supplementary valve is a combination of pilot operated relief valve and check valve. The pilot operated relief valve is installed on the multitandem valve with bolts, two oil ports are connected to the oil ducts of bucket cylinder piston-side and rod-side chamber respectively, the other two are connected to the oil return duct. The check valve is integrated in multiandem valve body, two oil ports are connected to the oil ducts of bucket cylinder piston-side and rod-side chamber respectively, the other two are connected to the oil return duct. 9-20

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader When bucket part reversing valve is in neutral, both rod-side chamber and piston-side chamber of bucket cylinder are sealed. At this point, if severe impacts act on the bucket, the overload oil supplementary valve can prevent dramatic rise of local pressure.

In the process of the boom lifting, overload oil supplementary valve can conduct oil discharging and supplementing automatically. For instance, when the boom is lifted to a certain position, the piston rod of bucket cylinder will be forced to extend outward, which will make the oil pressure in the bucket cylinder rod-side chamber rise up sharply, the oil cylinder or hydraulic pipe can be damaged under such circumstance. However, because overload valve is designed in the system, it can make the oil trapped in the oil cylinder rod-side chamber return back to the hydraulic oil tank through the overload valve. The volume of oil cylinder rod-side chamber decreases, meanwhile, the volume of oil cylinder piston-side chamber increases and partial vacuum will be formed. At this moment the oil supplementary valve opens to add hydraulic oil into the bucket cylinder piston-side chamber, in order to eliminate the partial vacuum. When the loader is unloading, it can help to make the bucket tip down quickly under the action its own weight, and hits the stop block freely to dump all the materials inside the bucket. During this process, after the bucket barycenter crosses the lower hinge point, the bucket will turn increasingly under the action of gravity; but the movement velocity of bucket cylinder is limited by the oil supply rate of the hydraulic pump. In this case, oil supplementary valve can make the bucket cylinder piston-side chamber overflow timely and at the same time refills oil to the bucket cylinder 9-21

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader rod-side chamber, to make the bucket tip down quickly under the action its own weight, and hits the stop block freely to dump all the materials inside the bucket.

If the scratch is too depth that can embed a nail, replace the rod immediately. If there is smooth dent, planish the protrudent around with oilstone to adjust; if the dent is too big, replace or re-plate the rod immediately. Important! Repolish the rod after re-plating, the re-plating thickness should be at least 0.25mm. Attention! If the base metal is hurt during planishing, then the rod must be re-plated.

93 Service Precautions for Working Hydraulic System The most common fault for high-pressure and high-precision hydraulic devices is that fouling (alien material) occurs in the hydraulic circuit. Thus, pay special attention to the cleanliness when adding hydraulic oil or removing and refitting the hydraulic devices. 1

Pay attention to working environment. Avoid adding hydraulic oil, replacing filter or repairing machine in rain or at windy and dirty place.

2

Removing

and

servicing

machine

on

outdoor site. Chances are that fouling will enter the equipment if removal and service are done on outdoor site; moreover, it is difficult to

Fig. 9-108

appraise

equipment’s

performance

after

eliminating the faults. So this is only suitable for replacing components. Removal and service of the hydraulic devices should be conducted in special dust-free workshop and the performance of the hydraulic devices should be appraised with special testing device. 3

Seal up the openings. After removing the pipes or components, all

Fig. 9-109

9-46

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader openings should be sealed with cap, adhesive paper or plastic bag so as to prevent fouling or dirt from entering them. If you let the openings be exposed or clogged with rags, fouling is liable to get into them or the leaking oil will stain the surrounding places, which is not allowed to happen. Instead of draining oil on the ground, you should collect the drained oil and take it back to handle it on your own. 4

Prevent any fouling or dirt from entering the system during the oil refilling operation. Prevent any fouling or dirt from being mixed into the hydraulic oil when refilling hydraulic oil and be sure to keep the oil filler and the surrounding surface clean as well as use clean oil pump and container. Utilizing oil cleaning device will filter the fouling deposited during the storage period from the oil, which is more

Fig. 9-110

effective for refilling oil. 5

The hydraulic oil should be changed when the oil temperature is high. When the hydraulic oil or other oil is hot, their fluidity is good and the deposited sludge is easy to be flushed away by the oil. Therefore, it is recommended to change oil when the oil is hot. Discharge the old oil fully (not only the oil in the hydraulic oil tank but also the oil in the filter and plugs of the pipeline) as possible as you can when changing oil. If there is old

Rinsing oil

oil residual, the fouling and deposited sludge will be mixed with the new oil, shortening the service life of the new oil. 6

Flushing operation. The fouling, oil sludge and old oil in the hydraulic oil circuit should be flushed away

Fig. 9-111

9-47

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader with rinsing oil when changing oil after the disassembly and assembly of the hydraulic devices. Normally, flushing is conducted for two times: primary flushing with rinsing oil and

secondary

flushing

with

specified

hydraulic oil.

7

Cleaning operation. Get rid of the sludge and fouling in the hydraulic oil circuit with oil cleaning device after repairing the hydraulic device (pump, control valve, etc.) or when the machine is operating. The oil cleaning device is used to remove the ultrafine granule that cannot be removed by the filter in the hydraulic device, which is a very effective cleaning tool.

Fig.8 9-112 Torque requirements.

The securing operation should be conducted in strict accordance with the torque required in this manual during the process of removal, refitting and service of the hydraulic system. Excessive or insufficient torque will lead to hydraulic oil leakage.

 ATTENTION For the torque that is not indicated, please refer to relevant requirements in chapter 0 General of this manual. 1.

Bleeding of working hydraulic system After replacement of hydraulic pump, hydraulic cylinder, hydraulic pipe, joint and all kinds of valves, bleeding operation must be done. The specific bleeding steps are as follows: 1) Open the filler cap of hydraulic tank. 2) Start the engine; run the engine at idle for 5 minutes, and then retract and extend all cylinders from bottom for about 2~3 times, keep the stroke within 50~60 mm. 3) Keep the engine run at low speed, and then retract and extend all cylinders fully for about 3~5 times to bleed the air in hydraulic circuit. 4) After the bleeding, set the machine and working device in standard position, check hydraulic oil level and tighten the filler cap. 9-48

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader 5) Shut down the engine, check for leakage.

95 Diagnosis and Solutions for Common Faults of Hydraulic System 951

Unexpected 9-52

Forward

Tilt

of


Bucket Fault phenomena: When operating handle of pilot valve is in neutral position, the bucket tilt forward unexpectedly. Fault analysis: Because link mechanisms are used in working device, when the bucket is under retract state and operating handle of pilot valve is in neutral position, the bucket cylinder piston-side chamber will suffer extra force caused by self-weight. At this point, if there is leakage in piston-side chamber, it will result in unexpected forward tilt of bucket. Six situations can cause the leakage in piston-side chamber of bucket cylinder: 1

Obvious external leakage exists in pipelines, joints and fitting surfaces from the piston-side chamber to multitandem valve.

2

Multitandem valve bucket slide vale part fails to go back to neutral position (because valve element gets stuck, valve element of pilot valve cannot reset or there are faults exist in the valve body, such as sand holes and grooves that connect to piston-side chamber).

3

While inner leakage exists in bucket cylinder, leakage also exists from rod-side chamber to oil outlet port.

4

Low overload pressure for bucket cylinder piston-side overload valve (may caused by damaged pressure adjusting spring, valve element stuck in open position, dirt exists in the conical fitting surface between valve element and valve body, or there are defects exist in the valve body, such as sand holes and grooves that connect to piston-side chamber).

5

Leakage exists in bucket cylinder piston-side oil compensation valve (may caused by damaged reset spring, valve element stuck in open position, dirt exists in the conical fitting surface between valve element and valve body, or there are defects exist in the valve body, such as sand holes and grooves that connect to piston-side chamber)

6

Excessive wear of selector valve body or element, which result in fit clearance between valve body and valve element is far more than design value.

Diagnosis and solutions: 1

Six situations that cause leakage are listed above and the simplest and easiest to diagnose is the first one: Start the machine and lift the boom to a certain height, retract the bucket to its extreme position, and then observe the pipelines, joints and fitting surfaces from the piston-side chamber to multitandem valve to find out whether there are obvious external leakage phenomena exist.

2

If the first situation is being excluded, consider the second situation: Start the machine and operate pilot valve handle to lift the boom to highest position, and retract the bucket to its extreme position, and then shut down the engine, disassemble the two pilot pipes that connected to two ends of multitandem valve bucket slide vale part. At this point, if the 9-53

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader unexpected forward tilt phenomenon disappeared, then we can come to a conclusion that the fault is caused by pilot valve, which causes multitandem valve bucket slide vale part fails to go back to neutral position. Disassemble and clean the pilot valve or replace it. Otherwise, check the third situation. 3

For the third situation, we can do some simple check: Start the machine and operate pilot valve handle to lower the boom to lowest position, and retract the bucket to its extreme position, and then shut down the engine, disconnect bucket cylinder piston-side rubber hose and diver it to hydraulic oil tank. Start the machine again, operate the pilot valve handle to backward tilt the bucket, observe whether there is oil comes out from piston-side oil port continually. If there is, which means server inner leakage exists in bucket cylinder, the cylinder needs to be repaired or replaced. Otherwise, check the fourth and fifth situations.

4

For the fourth and fifth situations, method of pressure detection can be used: Connect a 0250Bar pressure gauge to gauge port of bucket cylinder piston-side chamber. Start the machine and operate pilot valve handle to extend the bucket to its extreme position; step on the gas and operate pilot valve handle to lift the boom, at the same time, check whether the reading on the gauge reach the design value when the boom is lifting. If not, either situation mentioned in the first place is possible, the overload valve or oil compensation valve for bucket cylinder pistonside chamber need to be checked and cleaned.

5

If situation 1 to situation 5 have been excluded and the fault still exists, then stop the machine, low boom and bucker to lowest positions and disassemble multitandem valve bucket slide valve part, look through the valve element, valve opening and their fitting situation.

6


952

Boom Sinking

Fault phenomena: When operating handle of pilot valve is in neutral position, the boom sinks automatically and exceeds allowed range. Fault analysis: When the boom is lifted and stays in a certain height, the boom cylinder piston-side chamber will suffer extra force caused by self-weight. At this point, if there is leakage in piston-side chamber, the boom will fall automatically. Four situations can cause the leakage in piston-side chamber of boom cylinder: 1

Obvious external leakage exists in pipelines, joints and fitting surfaces from the piston-side chamber to multitandem valve.

2

Multitandem valve boom slide vale part fails to go back to neutral position (because valve element gets stuck, valve element of pilot valve cannot reset or there are defects exist in the 9-54

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader valve body, such as sand holes and grooves), which cause boom cylinder rod-side chamber connect to pump, or piston-side chamber connect to oil return port. 3

While inner leakage exists in boom cylinder, leakage also exists from rod-side chamber to oil outlet port.

4



Four situations that cause leakage are listed above and the simplest and easiest to diagnose is the first one: Start the machine and lift the boom to highest height, and then observe the pipelines, joints and fitting surfaces from the piston-side chamber to multitandem valve to find out whether there are obvious external leakage phenomena exist.

2

If the first situation is being excluded, consider the second situation: Start the machine and operate pilot valve handle to lift the boom to highest position, and retract the bucket to its extreme position, and then shut down the engine, disassemble the two pilot pipes that connected to two ends of multitandem valve bucket slide vale part. At this point, if the boom sinking phenomenon disappeared, then we can come to a conclusion that the fault is caused by pilot valve, which causes multitandem valve boom slide vale part fails to go back to neutral position. Disassemble and clean the pilot valve or replace it. Otherwise, check the third situation.

3

For the third situation, we can do some simple check: Start the machine and operate pilot valve handle to lift the boom to highest position, and retract the bucket to its extreme position, and then shut down the engine, disconnect boom cylinder piston-side rubber hose and divert it to hydraulic oil tank. Start the machine again, operate the pilot valve handle to lower the boom, observe whether there is oil comes out from piston-side oil port continually. If there is, which means server inner leakage exists in boom cylinder, the cylinder needs to be repaired or replaced. Otherwise, check the fourth situation.

4

If situation 1 to situation 3 have been excluded and the fault still exists, then stop the machine, low boom and bucker to lowest positions and disassemble multitandem valve boom slide valve part, look through the valve element, valve opening and their fitting situation.

953

Boom Rises Slowly

Fault phenomena: When the diesel engine is running under rated speed, operate pilot valve handle to lift the boom from lowest to highest position, the time it needed exceeds full load lifting time. Fault analysis: Consider the characteristics of Hydraulic power units, the reason for boom lifting slowly: insufficient flow from hydraulic pump to cylinder. Nine situations are listed below that may cause insufficient flow from hydraulic pump to 9-55

Service Manual for LG955N Wheel Loader cylinder: 1

Severe external leakage exists in joints, pipelines, valves and fitting surfaces from pump to boom cylinder piston-side chamber.

2

The hydraulic oil contain a lot of bubble or turns black, or goes bad, and its viscosity has been changed.

3

Blocked oil absorption filter or oil absorption pipe, which make the working pump hard to suck oil.

4

Severe inner leakage exists in working pump.

5

Severe inner leakage exists in boom cylinder (caused by cylinder scoring or damaged sealing element).

6

Low adjusting pressure of multitandem valve main safety valve (may caused by damaged pressure adjusting spring, valve element stuck in open position, or there are defects exist in the valve body, such as sand holes and grooves that connect to oil return chamber).

7

Severe inner leakage exists between oil inlet channel an oil return channel of multitandem valve body (caused by sand hole or breakage of valve body).

8

Excessive wear of selector valve element or valve opening of multitandem valve boom slide valve part, which result in fit clearance between valve body and valve element is far more than design value.

9

Insufficient opening of multitandem valve (because selector valve element gets stuck, valve element of boom cylinder piston-side pilot valve cannot reset or there are sand holes and grooves exist in the valve body, or low setting pressure of combination valve that result in insufficient pilot pressure).


For all situations mentioned above, firstly, we should start the machine and lift the boom, check out whether there is obvious external leakage exists in pipelines, joints and fitting surfaces from working pump to boom cylinder piston-side chamber.

2

If there is no severe external leakage, then basic inspection should be done: Whether the hydraulic oil level is above “LOW” level, whether there is too much bubble in hydraulic oil or the oil turns black. Add hydraulic oil if necessary; if the oil turns bad, clean the tank and the whole hydraulic system, and then replace the oil.

3

If the hydraulic oil is good, then start the machine and operate pilot handle to retract the bucket, at the same time, listen carefully and check whether there is screaming in working pump. If there is, which means the pump have severe oil absorption problem, check and clean oil absorption filter and rubber hoses.

9-56


If there is no screaming phenomenon, check the forth situation: Start the machine, operate the pilot valve to load the pump for 1-2 minutes, then shut down the engine; carefully touch the shell of working pump, if it feels too hot, then we can come to a conclusion that severe inner leakage exist in working pump, which causes the oil shortage problem.

5

For the fifth to ninth situations, we need to do some simple tests first: Connect a 0-40MPa pressure gauge to gauge port of multitandem valve P port. Start the machine and operate pilot valve handle to pressurize the hydraulic system, at the same time, check whether the reading on the gauge reach the design value. If not, check situation 5 to 8 one by one.

6

For the fifth situation, start the machine and operate pilot valve handle to lower the boom to lowest position, and retract the bucket to its extreme position, and then shut down the engine, disconnect boom cylinder piston-side rubber hose and divert it to hydraulic oil tank. Start the machine again, operate the pilot valve handle to lower the boom, observe whether there is oil comes out from piston-side oil port continually. If there is, which means server inner leakage exists in boom cylinder, the cylinder needs to be repaired or replaced.

7

For situation 6: Check and clean main safety valve, if there is irreparable damage for valve element or valve body, please replace the safety valve.

8

If situation 6 and 7 are being excluded and the system pressure still fails to reach design value, then focus on situation 7 and 8. Disassemble multitandem valve boom slide valve part, look through the valve element, valve opening and their fitting situation.

9

If the hydraulic system pressure reaches design value but the boom still lifting slow, check the ninth situation: Operate pilot valve handle to lower the boom and bucket to their lowest positions, and then open the spring-free end cover (the one with short axial dimension) of multitandem valve boom slide valve part, force the valve element to do axial movement, check whether the rod can get to the right positions, whether it can return to neutral position smoothly.

Fault phenomena: When the diesel engine is running under rated speed, operate pilot valve handle to lift the boom under full load, the boom fails to be lifted. Fault analysis: The most direct reason for lifting incapacity of boom is low pressure of boom cylinder piston chamber. Primary reasons for low pressure in boom cylinder piston chamber: 1

Low overload pressure for main safety valve of multitandem valve (may be caused by damaged pressure adjusting spring, valve element stuck in open position, or there are defects exist in the valve body, such as sand holes and grooves that connect to oil return chamber). 9-57


Severe inner leakage of working pump, because that the system cannot build up pressure or the system pressure cannot reach design value.

3

Severe inner leakage exists in boom cylinder (caused by cylinder scoring or damaged sealing element ).

4

Severe inner leakage exists between oil inlet channel an oil return channel of multitandem valve body (caused by sand hole or breakage of valve body), because that the system cannot build up pressure or the system pressure cannot reach design value.

Diagnosis and solutions: Focus on the four reasons mentioned above and refer to Boom raises slowly for troubleshooting.
