TILT CYLINDER LINES GROUP

FAN AND BRAKE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM The fan and brake pump (25) is located on the front gear train of the engine, on the right side ofthe machine. The fan and brake pump provides oil flow for the electronic demand fan systemand the brake hydraulic system. The signal pressure tap (HH) and the outlet pressure tap (AA) are located on the fan and brake pump. Also located on the engine on the right side of the machine is the fan control and brakeaccumulator charging valve (30).

- Implement control valve supply pressure tap (GG) The Following components are not referenced on the Hydraulic System Schematic: - Tilt anti-drift valve (A) - Signal relief valve (B) - Signal duplication valve (C) - Return to tank port (D) - Supply port from pump (E) - Signal line to pump (E) - Tank line (G) - Screen (H) - Tilt back pilot solenoid valve (J) - Tilt back pilot (K) - Tilt cylinder rod end line relief (L) - Ride control balance solenoid valve (M) - Rod end solenoid valve (ride control) (N) This drawing shows a right side view of the wheel loader.
