Overload Warning - Set - If Equipped

SMCS - 1408; 5472; 7490
The overload warning device is a system that warns the operator that the pump pressure for the boom
cylinder lines has exceeded a set value. The set value for the overload warning device varies because
of the machine configuration and the attachments that are installed. The alarm setting for the overload
warning device on your machine should be checked for the proper adjustment. Use the information
that follows in order to calculate the correct value and reset the parameter for the overload warning
device.
Note: The engine speed and/or the machine configuration that is used during this test can affect the
results of this test. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Engine Performance - Test (Engine Speed)" for
the engine speed that was used for this test.
Note: The relief valve pressure settings must be set to the relief valve pressure specification before
performing this operational check. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Specifications".
Calculation Of The Threshold Pressure For The Overload

Warning Device
Use the information that follows in order to calculate the correct value of the threshold pressure for
the overload warning device on your machine.

(A) Full extension of bucket cylinder
(B) Full retraction of stick cylinder
(C) Position of the pin in the boom foot
(D) Position of the track
(E) Secured position of the bucket
(F) Position of the pin in the stick nose
1. Position the machine. Refer to Illustration 1.

2. Stop the engine.
3. Connect the linkage and a stationary object with a suitable lifting device (E). Make sure that the
pin in the stick nose is the same distance from the ground as the pin for the boom foot (F) .
Note: Make sure that the boom is positioned perpendicular to the track. The machine should be
configured with the boom, the stick, and the attachments that will be used.
4. Start the engine.
5. Place the machine controls at the following settings: engine speed dial 10 and AEC switch OFF.
Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Engine Performance - Test (Engine Speed)" for engine rpm
settings.
6. Increase the hydraulic oil temperature to 55 5C (131 9F).
7. Access the "STATUS" mode with the monitor in order to measure the pump pressure during
boom operation. The "STATUS" mode will display the parameters of the components of the
machine. Use Illustration 2 in order to navigate the monitor.

classified in either the "display only" or the setting for the ID. In order to change the ID, use the
keys for direction. Change the "STATUS" ID to "2" for drive pump delivery pressure or "3" for
idler pump pressure. After the ID has been changed, press the OK key (8) .

(G) Extension of boom cylinder
(H) Track at the rear or the machine
(J) Free space between the track and the ground
11. Slowly extend the boom cylinders. Extend the boom cylinders until the track that is under the
rear side of the machine is above the ground. Refer to Illustration 9.
12. Record the measured pump pressure from the display on the monitor in the cab in Table 1.
13. Slowly retract the boom cylinder. Retract the boom cylinder until the track that is under the rear
side of the machine is on the ground.
14. The value of the threshold pressure for the overload warning device is 70% of the recorded
pump pressure from Step 12. This calculation is shown in Table 1.
