    i am having a workshop clear out and i have a new ram free to a good home its about 12-13 ton at 200bar or 3000 psi from memory it will be rated higher than that as the machine it came off was rated at 320 bar anyway its going for nowt just stick some pennies in the charity tin

    i recognise the pinch thing thats a modified cat mp20 multi processor or verachtert as they were once known

    vice bolted onto the mud wing of the chipper

    if you didn't change the oil and filters when the oil starts to pick up condensation and the additives break down you could get foaming and this may cause cavitation which in turn could cause metal to become dislodged then this could restrict the filters then this would lead to the filter bypassing which would lead to excessive wear and so on but i would very much doubt that a chipper hydraulics would be under much stress

    looking at that picture why could the developers not just move the road 30-40 yards either side there looks like theres plenty of room

    can you get a hydraulic diagram from jensen so i can tell you how to plumb it in

    would the power consumption of the crane make the stress control come on a lot how many hp is the engine i would think you would need 10-15 hp just to make the crane operate at a decent speed also would the stability be affected by the high centre of gravity of the crane it sounds like a good project post plenty of pics if you do it

    550 is a grat saw spend a few quid extra and buy the xpg i wish that i had bought the 560 xpg heated handles make a hell of a difference

    my arse gets cold in them and the bit at the back is like a funnel and i always end up with my sweatshirt riding up my back and my drawers full of sawdust

    theres loads of different systems cranes are a different matter altogether they have oddball stuff like proportional relief valves and various line relief valves tractors are usually a basic system with not much to go tits up

    i wonder how many combines have been set on fire after rats and mice have eaten the wiring it amazes me what rats like to gnaw on oil soaked rubber seems to be a favourite for them
  16. Breezeblock
    it doesn't matter which relief valve once the spool is in the hold position the relief valve is irrelevant it will only lift the relief valve when either spool is moved and the lowest valve dictates the max pressure

    its a toss up between working in the landfill sites where some of the more creative chaps played golf with the rats or having to dig grease out of a slew ring on a mining excavator choices choices
  18. Breezeblock
    on these open centre valves there is usually only 1 relief valve and once the spool is in the hold position the relief valve doesn't have any influence on the ram if its creeping it in the hold position it can only be internal leakage thru the ram seals or across the landings of the spool

    don't bother with a pressure gauge yet swap the hoses onto another service if possible to see if it transfers the fault. if it does then its the ram if you hold it in the fully crowded position then remove the opposite hose see if theres oil coming out or alternatively lower it right down onto a bit of wood to hold the bucket right back and blank the pressure side off lift it up and see if it still crowds over if it does the seals are goosed. check the hyd tank return filter for bits of seal

    ditto don't drive it my transit shat its pants on the m6 at gretna services and the marks are still there in the middle lane that was spectacular engine failure took the head off it and you could put your hand down the side of the piston:thumbup:
