Adjust Tractor Flow Rate and Timed Detent—540M Loaders


Adjust Electronic Independent Control Valve (E-ICV) Functions on 6X30 Premium Tractors

Set E-ICV functions to LOADER or set the detent shutoff times to zero. Reduce flow levels for smooth operation. See tractor Operator's Manual for detailed procedures.

Adjust E-ICV functions on a 6X30 premium tractor:

To determine if valve calibration is necessary, check your tractor Operator's Manual.

The following values are adjustable for the E-ICV extend and retract functions:

  • Flow rate
  • Automatic shutoff time

  1. CAUTION: Prevent bodily injury or death from objects falling on the operator. Activate the loader function on page two or set all the shutoff times to zero. If the lever is unintentionally moved to detent position, inactive or zero shutoff time prevents the loader from raising to full height.

    IMPORTANT: Prevent possible machine damage. Before operating the loader, make sure that none of the detent positions have programmed time limits. The E-ICVs must be set to LOADER. See the tractor Operator's Manual for more information.

    Press button (B). Use selection wheel (A) to select ICV selection (C) and press check mark (Confirm) button to display E-ICV front valve screen.

  2. Select next page (D).

  3. Select loader symbol (E) and activate with the confirm button.

  4. Select return (F) symbol. A loader symbol appears in the bottom left corner of the screen and shutoff times (J) disappear.

  5. NOTE: If independent control (G) is active, adjustments for ICV extend and retract functions are independent. If synchronized control (H) is active, adjustments for ICV extend and retract functions are synchronized and identical.

    Use selection wheel to highlight independent control (G) or synchronized control (H) and press confirm button.

  6. CAUTION: Prevent bodily injury or possible machine damage caused by excessive flow rates. Full extension and retraction of the cylinders must take at least 2 seconds.

    NOTE: Flow rate is adjustable in increments of 0.1. The minimum is 0.2 and the maximum is 10.

    Highlight a flow control (I) entry, press the confirm button, adjust the flow rate with selection wheel, and press the confirm button.

  7. Repeat extend and retract adjustments for the remaining entries.

See your tractor Operator's Manual for more information.


Adjust Timed Detent on 6000 Series Tractors

CAUTION:

RW27032-UN-14AUG00

Rear of Tractor—Viewed From Cab

A - No Detent Position

Prevent bodily injury or death caused by objects falling on the operator. Selective Control Valves (SCV) have an automatic cylinder extend position (detent), DO NOT use the detent position for loader operation. Unintentional movement of the controls to the detent position causes the loader to raise to full height and the load to fall back on the operator.

  • Mechanical (SCV) levers:
    • Make sure that the controls knobs are positioned as shown (A).
    • See your tractor Operator's Manual for more information.
  • Electronic multi-function lever:
    • Set automatic shutoff time to infinity (no automatic shutoff).
    • See your tractor Operator's Manual for information.

A - (SCV) Button

Prevent bodily injury or death caused by objects falling on the operator. Unintentional movement of the controls to detent position causes the loader to raise to full height and the load to fall back on the operator.

IMPORTANT: Prevent possible machine damage. DO NOT use excessive operating speeds. When set properly, full extension or retraction of the cylinders takes at least 2 seconds.

Press (SCV) button (A), check and adjust values before operating the loader:

  • Maximum flow: Adjust flow rate to 10 (full). If the loader is moving too fast, lower to more desired setting
  • Automatic shutoff time: Set to infinity (no automatic shutoff).

See your tractor Operator's Manual for more information.
