The ride control solenoid (79) is located in the front frame behind and above the
front axle housing. The ride control solenoid is an ON/OFF solenoid. When the ride
control solenoid is energized the head end of the lift cylinders are connected to
the ride control accumulator to absorb the shock that occurs when roading
the machine. The ride control solenoid is a part of the ride control valve
group (78).
The ride control accumulator (85) is mounted horizontally along the inside of
the front right side of the frame, to the rear of the front axle housing.

The parking brake control valve (48) is located on the right frame rail below the
cab. The parking brake control valve directs oil flow to the parking brake. The
parking brake pressure switch (49) sends the park brake pressure status to the Power
Train ECM.

The steering control valve is located below the cab on the left frame rail. The control valve directs steering system
oil to the steering cylinders and sends signal oil through the ball resolver. Control valve components shown above
are:
15. Ball resolver

17. Pressure reducing valve
18. Crossover relief valve
20. Secondary relief valve
21. Diverter valve
36. Selector and pressure control valve

The steering pump pressure warning switch is located on the selector and pressure control valve (36) on top of
the fuel tank on the left side of the machine if the machine is equipped with secondary steering.

The axle oil cooler assembly (87) is shown off the machine. The oil cooler assembly
is located on the left side of the machine above the fuel tank. The axle oil cooler
assembly is comprised of two sections with the front axle oil cooler in the lower
section, and the rear axle oil cooler in the upper section. The cooler assembly
removes the heat from the brake and differential oil and returns the oil to the axle
manifold. The cooler oil flows from the manifold and enters the axle at each brake
chamber and at the differential case.
This view shows the axle cooling system components located on the inboard side of
the axle oil cooling assembly. The axle cooling fan motor (86) turns the fan to
draw air through the axle oil coolers. The rear pump (not shown) supplies oil flow
to turn the axle cooling fan motor. A relief valve (88) limits the oil pressure in
the rear axle cooling hydraulic system. The front axle oil filter (90a) and
the rear axle oil filter (90b) are also shown in this view.

The left and right neutralizer valves (25) are mounted at the articulation joint on top of the rear frame. The
quad check valve (24) is located on the rear frame to the rear of the neutralizer valves.

The secondary steering pump (13) is splined to the front of the transmission output transfer gear near the
articulation joint. The pump is ground driven and turns when the machine is moving. If the primary steering
pump fails or the engine stops while the machine is moving, the secondary steering pump supplies oil to the
steering system.

COMPONENT AND TAP LOCATIONS
The service brake valve (46) is located below the right brake pedal. The left and
right brake pedals are mechanically connected, allowing the service brake valve to
be actuated by either brake pedal. Also, front service brake oil pressure can be
checked at the front service brake pressure tap (L) and rear service brake oil
pressure can be checked at the rear service brake pressure tap (M).
46

L
A hydraulically engaged, multiple disc service brake is located between the
planetaries and the differential at each axle. Each brake contains a piston, discs
and plates. When either brake pedal is depressed, pressure oil moves the piston which
compresses the discs against the plates. The heat from brake friction is removed
by the oil in the differential housing.
