DAN! You are the man!!! Thank you so much for talking me through this on the phone!! You call me the next time you come to SC and the bourbon is on me!!

Yes yes I follow you, thank you for helping me!! This is very helpful. So when it says to turn the nuts counter clockwise to the point of relief valve operation, what should I be looking for? The only thing I saw, or I’m aware that I saw were the lift arms starting to lower. The process seemed...

First off Dan, i am not arguing, i am trying to understand. Second, what’s your opinion of the procedure sir? have you ever done it? Can you help me with it? Please help me, I’m trying to understand, So what am I missing? I followed the procedure step by step. When you get to the part about...

By this procedure it would seem that open is allowing bypass or downward movement and closed is the opposite, no bypass and totally locked out in uppermost position?? grant

Maybe so, but by my read it states that at that position the relief valve would be closed and not allow any bypass. Read step 9. It states to set throttle at max and then move the lever to upper most and lower most to make sure that relief valve doesn’t operate. Mine will never achieve that...

Read the above protocol for adjusting the feedback rod. At step 6 you set the throttle to max RPM and run the lever to full up and full down making sure the relief valve does not operate. It should be fully closed at this point and not move anything up or down is my understanding of the...

So is that the control valve on the schematic? Are they rebuildable or is it best to get a new one?

Just for kicks I ran the threads all the way in clockwise on the feedback rod and even then the lift arms still lower when I move the lever down to the lowest position.

Yes it will close per se at full up, but no matter what when I lower the control lever the lift arms fall as well. I even market it with a sharpie to be able to tell the exact moment when the relief valve was operational.

Update: following above procedure, but when I get to step 9, the relief valve is still operational. Is the the sign of a bad valve?

thank you for the reference, I will go through that sequence tomorrow am and report back! I hope that will Help and it’s just out of adjustment!

All is good with feedback rod. All connections good, no obstructions. That’s what’s leading me towards bad control valve? Or would it be a bad regulator valve? I just don’t know how the whole system is Interconnected and all the drawings are separate. I hate to just throw money at it but I’m...

To further clarify, it’s like there’s a few inches of play in the position control lever before anything happens…

Ok, I have a 1999 L4200 that runs like a top……BUT recently my 3PH has started acting strangely. The position control lever, when actuated, doesn’t show any lift of the implement until about position 5-6??? Then it will jump up to full lift by position 8, but as you can see that doesn’t leave...

Greetings all! Upgrading my old L2350DT to an old L4200GST! Anything specifically to note or lookout for as for maintenance? It has about 1400 hours and seems to be reasonably well cared for. Of Course I will do a full fluid and filter change right off. Any areas to pay particular close...
