CONTROL SYSTEM ADJUSTMENT 

Refer to 

Figure 5-5

. Prior to adjusting the control 

system, it is necessary to determine the desired 
operating pressure range as well as the maximum 
pressure at which the machine is to operate. This 
pressure must not exceed the maximum operating 
pressure which is stamped on the machine serial 
number plate. The following explanation applies to a 
typical machine with a desired operating range of 
100 to 150 psig (6.9 bar to 10.3 bar). This information 
will apply to a machine with any other operating 
range except for the stated operating pressure. For 

high-pressure machines, adjustment pressures are 
shown in parenthesis: 

1. Start the machine and let it warm-up and

enter full “RUN” mode. 

2. Open service valve slightly until engine tries

to speed up. Slowly close the service valve.
With service valve closed, check and adjust
the pressure at the reducing regulator to a
minimum of 60 psig (4.1 bar) and not to
exceed 75 psig (5.2 bar). With service valve
