The 450E machines are equipped with hydraulically assisted master cylinders, which decreases the
amount of pedal effort when braking. This illustration shows the boosted brakes valve group, which uses
oil from the pilot accumulator to add boost to the master cylinder. The hydraulic force multiplies the pedal
effort so the operator can get more braking force with less effort.

Travel at high speeds over rough terrain causes bucket movement. The
optional Ride Control System acts as a shock absorber by absorbing
bucket forces, which stabilize the machine.

The 450E machines are equipped with a mechanically

controlled loader valve as shown in this illustration.

The Ride Control System components include; ride control relay (A), ride
control solenoids (B), ride control accumulator (C), and ride control
pressure switch (D).

The loader valve is accessed from below the floor

plate. The loader control valve group contains:

Two solenoids are now used on the "E" Series machines Ride Control

The Ride Control System, on machines with the optional autoshift

transmission, is controlled by the Machine ECM. The Machine ECM
monitors the position of the ride control switch and determines when to
operate the ride control system.

rear of the cab removed. This illustration shows a eight bank backhoe valve in the 450E Backhoe Loader. The
components in the backhoe valve are:

View of pilot controlled backhoe valve with floor plate removed.

The implement and steering pump is located below the floor plate in the cab. The pump
control valve (H) contains a torque control spool adjustment screw (B) and a flow compensator adjustment screw (A). The adjustment screws and the load sensing pressure tap (T2)
are accessible from the cab.

The implement and steering pump on the 420E and 430E machines is similar to the "D"
Series machines, but now includes a torque control solenoid (not visible). The torque
control solenoid provides an additional pump setting.

The Ride Control System, on machines with the optional autoshift

transmission, is controlled by the Machine ECM. The Machine ECM
monitors the position of the ride control switch and determines when to
operate the ride control system.

The pilot manifold can also be

accessed with the floor plate
removed. The pilot pressure tap
(T3) is located on the pilot manifold. The pilot manifold routes pilot
oil to and from the loader and
backhoe pilot control valves.

TAP LOCATIONS

The hydraulic oil filter is located below the

machine at the left frame rail. The hydraulic oil
filter bypass switch is mounted to the oil filter
base.
