MACHINE PUSH-UP SWITCH This switch is used to switch the safety valve set pressure at the head end of the boom cylinder to two levels. 1 Low pressure setting: The boom thrust force is weak,so the swaying of the chassis is small during digging operations, and digging opera- tions can be carried out smoothly.

This is used for general digging opera- tions on normal ground, soft rock, or blasted rock. 2 High pressure setting: The thrusting force of the boom be- comes more powerful, so it is easy to twist and swing or escape from soft ground. It is effective in carrying out digging operations using the bucket and the weight of the machine in confined areas. AM089450 9.
