INTRODUCTION

The "E" Series Backhoe Loader family is the latest generation of Caterpillar Backhoe Loadersretaining many of the features proven on the "D" Series machines along with additionalperformance and design improvements.

This presentation discusses the components and system operation of the "E" Series BackhoeLoaders.

The hydraulic system has been changed from a Load Sensing/Pressure Compensated LS/PCsystem to a Proportional Priority, Pressure Compensated PPPC system. Two types of PPPCsystems are used. The 416E/422E/428E machines with mechanically controlled implementhydraulic valves use one type of PPPC system. The 420E/430E/432E/434E/442E/444Emachines use another type of PPPC system.

The "E" Series BHL product line is the first new complete redesign since the "C" Series, andbrings significant improvements in performance, operator comfort, controllability, versatility,and styling.

An All Wheel Steer (AWS) system is available on the 432E and 442E models and standard onthe 434E and 444E models.

The "E" Series backhoe loaders are powered by direct injection, four cylinder Caterpillar3054C diesel engines. Turbocharged engines are optional on the 416E and 422E models andstandard on all other models.

The 420E/430E/432E/434E/442E/444E machines are equipped with hydraulically assistedmaster cylinders to reduce the amount of pedal effort. An external brake boost valve uses oilfrom the pilot accumulator to add boost to the master cylinder. The hydraulic force multipliesthe pedal effort so the operator can get more braking force with less effort.

The "E" Series machines feature several changes over the previous models to improve operatorcomfort and machine performance.

The operator compartment features new console layouts. The heating, ventilation, and airconditioning includes 15 louvers and air towers, which provide significant improvements to aircirculation.

The E-Stick uses an extendible slider with a new wear pad design.

The electrical system has changed significantly from the previous models. One fuse and relayblock replaces the two fuse and relay blocks on the previous machine. The Cat ET connector isalso located below the fuse panel and is now accessible without removing the fuse block accesspanel. The Machine ECM replaces the Auxiliary ECM and Autoshift ECM.

Modulation valves have been added to the standard and autoshift transmissions to improveclutch modulation, which results in smoother transmission shifting. A forward drive gear hasbeen added to the countershaft in the standard transmission. The forward drive gear increasesthe machine top speed to 40 km/h (25 mph) the same as the autoshift transmission.

The rear final drive planetary gears have been moved outboard of the differential. Brakeinspection ports have been added to the axle.

The pilot loader joysticks and pilot backhoe joysticks have been redesigned.

The "E" Series Backhoe Loaders use different fuel pumps depending on whether the engine isnaturally aspirated or turbocharged. Both fuel pumps have been used on other Caterpillarproducts. These fuel pumps are not serviceable except by the manufacturer's certified servicecenters.

Machines equipped with a naturally aspirated 3054C DINA engine (not shown) will have adistributor-type mechanical fuel pump. These fuel pumps use a cam plate, rollers, and springsto move the distributor plunger in and out of the fuel pump housing. This motion createspressurized fuel which is distributed to the injectors.

Machines equipped with a turbocharged 3054C DIT engine will have a distributor-type,plunger-type mechanical fuel pump (1). These fuel pumps contain plungers, a cam ring, andshoes in the rotor assembly. As the rotor turns, the cam ring forces the shoes and plungers in toincrease the fuel pressure. The pressurized fuel is then directed to the injectors.

If a new pump is installed on the engine, a locking bolt (2) and a two position spacer in thepump flange below the timing mark on the pump engine flange must be loosened afterinstalling the pump on the engine. In the locked position, the bolt prevents the pump driveshaft from turning. Move the spacer to provide additional clearance between the bolt head andthe pump flange to unlock the pump drive shaft. If this procedure is not performed, the fuelpump will be damaged if an attempt is made to start the engine. If the screw is removed beforebeing installed on the engine, the fuel pump will no longer be timed and will require retiming atthe manufacturer's service center.

Both fuel pumps are also equipped with an engine shutdown solenoid (3) and automaticadvance mechanism (4).

This cutaway illustration shows the distributor-type injection pump used on the naturallyaspirated 3054C which is standard on the 416E/422E models. The distributor pump has onlyone high pressure pump chamber and one plunger regardless of the number of cylinders in theengine. The fuel is delivered through a groove in the plunger to the outlet ports as determinedby the number of cylinders in the engine.

The injection pump consists of the following subassemblies:

Feed pump: Consists of a vane-type pump that pulls fuel from the tank and supplies fuel tothe high pressure pump chamber. The feed pump is driven by the pump drive shaft.

High pressure pump with distributor: Delivers fuel under high pressure through a plunger tothe delivery valves. The plunger moves axially due to the rotation of the cam plate. Theplunger is also driven by the pump drive shaft.

Mechanical governor: Controls engine speed through various load ranges. The flyweightscontrol the governor lever position.

Timing advance mechanism: Adjusts the start of fuel delivery as a function of pump speedand load.

Engine shutoff solenoid: When de-energized, blocks fuel to the plunger fill port to stop theengine.

NOTE: Refer to "Distributor-type Mechanical Fuel Pump-3044C/3046 Tier II Engines"(SERV1777) for more information on the distributor-type mechanical fuel pump.

This illustration shows the distributor-type fuel injection pump used on the turbocharged 3054Cengines.

Fuel is drawn by the transfer pump through the pressure regulator and sent to the meteringvalve when the solenoid is energized. The fuel also flows through an annular groove aroundthe rotor to the orifice check valve and the automatic advance mechanism.

The metering valve controls the amount of fuel sent to the pumping elements inside the rotor(plungers, cam ring, and shoes). As the rotor turns, the cam ring forces the shoes and plungersin to increase the fuel pressure. The pressurized fuel is then directed to the injectors.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The "E" Series backhoe loaders are equipped with conventional 12 volt electrical systems withnegative ground and either a 100 amp alternator or a 120 amp alternator. The 100 ampalternator is installed on the 416E/422E machines. The 420E/428E/430E/432E/434E/442E and444E machines are equipped with a 120 amp alternator. The batteries (1) are located below thecab on the right side of the machine. The batteries are accessed by opening a panel (2) belowthe step to the cab.

The standard machines are equipped with a 12 volt maintenance free battery to supply power tothe system. The machines can be equipped with two batteries along with a heavy dutyalternator for cold weather climates or for use with additional operating lights (attachments).

The system does not have a disconnect switch. To disable the electrical system, remove thebattery ground cable from the main frame. The starting system is a key start and stop system.

The starting and charging system on the "E" Series machines is similar to the "D" Seriesmachines.

When the key is in the START-RUN position and the transmission shift control lever is inNEUTRAL, the start relay is energized through the transmission shift lever. With the start relayclosed, power from the battery energizes the starter solenoid and motor. The starter thenengages the flywheel ring gear and starts the engine. If the transmission shift lever is not inNEUTRAL, no power is directed to the start relay, so the engine will not crank.

For cold starts, the start aid switch can be used to energize the glow plugs. The glow plugsreplaced the thermal starting aid coil. A start aid relay has also been added to the start aidcircuit.

POWER TRAIN

Standard Transmission

The standard countershaft transmission is similar to the "D" Series transmission. A forwarddrive gear has been added to the countershaft, which increases the machine top speed to 40 km/h (25 mph) the same as the Autoshift transmission. The new gear is labeled in red forboth the two wheel drive transmission (top illustration) and All Wheel Drive (AWD)transmission (bottom illustration).

The four-speed, direct drive, helical gear, constant mesh, synchronized standard transmission iscoupled with hydraulically engaged FORWARD and REVERSE clutches. Each multiple discclutch pack is controlled by a solenoid valve.

A manually actuated lever and shifter fork arrangement shifts the transmission through the fourfully synchronized speed ranges.

Power is transmitted from the torque converter to the input shaft. If FORWARD is selected, theFORWARD clutch is engaged and power flows from the input shaft to the countershaft. Thecountershaft causes all four speed gears to rotate. A synchronizer will engage one of the speedgears with the output shaft. Power is then directed to the rear axle.

If the machine is equipped with All Wheel Drive (AWD), a separate shaft and clutch areneeded. An additional gear on the output shaft will transmit power to the AWD shaft.

A multiple disc clutch is part of the AWD shaft group. The clutch is hydraulically engaged andspring released. A solenoid controlled valve (not shown) directs oil to pressurize or drain theclutch. The solenoid is energized by the AWD switch on the left front console in the cab. Thefront wheel drive axle can be engaged while the vehicle is moving by activating the AWDswitch.

This illustration shows the power train hydraulic schematic for the standard transmissionequipped with two wheel drive.

Oil from the sump is drawn through a suction screen by a crescent-type gear pump located onthe transmission input shaft. From the pump, the oil is sent through a spin-on filter to thetransmission directional selector solenoid valve.

In NEUTRAL, the oil flow is blocked by the directional selector solenoid valve. Therefore, theoil opens the relief valve and flows to the torque converter. A bypass orifice in the relief valveis located between the supply circuit and torque converter circuit to make sure that oil is alwaysavailable to the torque converter when the machine is running.

The torque converter inlet relief valve protects the automotive-type torque converter from highpressure (during cold start-up). Oil from the torque converter goes to the oil cooler, which islocated in front of the radiator.

From the cooler, the oil is used for lubrication. A passage directs lube oil to the input shaft ofthe transmission. Oil from the shaft cools and lubricates the clutch assembly and input shaftbearings. The output shaft, countershaft and reverse idler shaft are splash lubricated. The oilthen returns to the sump.

NOTE: The lines and fittings from the torque converter and the oil cooler are sized toprovide sufficient restriction to the oil in the torque converter. A torque converter outletrelief valve is not required.

Modulating valves have been added to the directional selector solenoid valve. The modulatingvalves improve clutch modulation, which results in smoother transmission shifting. Themodulating valves consists of a modulating relief valve, orifice, and load piston.

In this illustration with the directional selector spool shifted to the FORWARD position, oilflows through an orifice and to the forward clutch. Oil also flows to one end of the modulatingrelief valve and through an orifice to the other end of the modulating relief valve and to theload piston.

As the oil flows into the clutch, pressure increases and the clutch begins to engage. Oilpressure forces the modulating relief valve against spring force, which allows some oil to flowthrough the relief valve to the tank.

Oil flows at a constant rate through the orifice to the load piston. The load piston moves at aconstant speed against spring force. The time it takes for the load piston to move down andcontact the stop is the hold time of the modulation valve.

The clutch fill time must be less than the hold time. When the load piston contacts the stop, thelarge spring is compressed. When the load piston is completely down, the pressure increases tosystem pressure. The relief valve limits the maximum clutch pressure.

Autoshift Transmission

A torque converter (not shown) provides a fluid connection between the engine and thetransmission.

The five-speed forward, three-speed reverse autoshift transmission is a constant-mesh,countershaft design. The transmission transfers power to the drive axles. The Machine ECMelectronically controls the transmission by selectively energizing speed and directionalsolenoids. The transmission is equipped with three speed and three directional solenoids. Onespeed solenoid and one directional solenoid must be simultaneously energized for atransmission gear to be engaged.

FIRST gear is a relatively low (slow) gear ratio, and using it may not be necessary for normalloader work or for roading. If using AUTOSHIFT for either loading or roading, disablingFIRST gear eliminates an extra gear shift. In extreme hard digging conditions, the neutralizerbutton can be used to downshift to FIRST, and then AUTOSHIFT will upshift the transmissionas the machine speed increases.

In summary, disabling FIRST makes the machine more responsive, smoother, and efficient(more productive). Use FIRST gear only when required.

The five-speed forward, three-speed reverse transmission is equipped with six clutch packs.The autoshift transmission uses six solenoids to control the engagement of the clutch packs.Two clutch packs must be simultaneously engaged for the transmission to drive the machine.The above chart shows the energized solenoids and the engaged clutch packs for each gear.The solenoids are controlled by the Machine ECM.

In NEUTRAL, none of the solenoids are energized.

The chart can be used to identify which solenoids are energized to engage the speed anddirection clutches to obtain the desired speed range.

NOTE: The Machine ECM does not provide shift protection on the "E" Series. Shiftprotection prevents the operator from changing directions at high speeds.

This illustration shows the inputs and outputs used by the Machine ECM to control theautoshift transmission.

The autoshift transmission has two modes of operation: Automatic and Manual. The modesare selected using the autoshift control switch on the right side of the front dash.

In the Automatic Mode, the operator controls the highest desired gear and the transmissioncontrol automatically selects the proper gear based on machine ground speed. The transmissiondetermines the ground speed through the transmission speed sensors and energized speedclutch.

In the Manual Mode, the transmission operates very similar to the standard power shifttransmission.

When the key start switch is ON, the transmission shift lever control provides an input signal tothe Machine ECM. The Machine ECM uses the shift lever control input to determine the gearrange selected on the transmission shift lever and the position of the key start switch. If theshift lever control is not in NEUTRAL during starting, the Machine ECM will prevent themachine from starting.

The parking brake switch provides an input signal to the Machine ECM. The Machine ECMprevents the transmission from shifting if the parking brake is engaged and also energizes theparking brake relay to sound the alarm.

The transmission neutral lock switch also provides an input signal to the Machine ECM. If thetransmission neutral lock switch is moved to the LOCK position, the Machine ECM shifts thetransmission into NEUTRAL and prevents the transmission from shifting, regardless of theposition of the shift lever control. The Machine ECM will not shift the transmission until afterthe shift lever control is moved into the NEUTRAL position and the transmission neutral lockswitch is moved to the UNLOCK position.

When the transmission neutralizer switch is activated by the operator, the transmission willmomentarily neutralize by de-energizing the direction clutch. Only the directional clutch is de-energized. This will improve shift speed when the button is released and the machine isplaced back into gear. In the Manual Mode, the Downshift/Neutralizer Switch will not permitthe transmission to be downshifted.

The transmission speed sensor provides output speed information to the Machine ECM. In theAutomatic Mode, the operator controls the highest desired gear and the transmission controlautomatically selects the proper gear based on machine ground speed. The Machine ECMdetermines the ground speed through the transmission speed sensors and energized speedclutch.

The Machine ECM uses the input signals described above to control transmission shiftingthrough the transmission solenoid valves.

The 420E/430E/432E/434E/442E and 444E machines are equipped with hydraulically assistedmaster cylinders, which decreases the amount of pedal effort when braking. This illustrationshows the boosted brakes valve group, which uses oil from the pilot accumulator to add boostto the master cylinder. The hydraulic force multiplies the pedal effort so the operator can getmore braking force with less effort.

In this illustration, the right brake is engaged and the left brake is released.

When the brake pedal is depressed, the brake linkage moves the brake boost valve to the right.Oil is directed from the pilot accumulator to the large chamber of the master cylinder. Thedistance that the brake pedal is depressed, determines the amount of oil flow to the mastercylinder.

The master cylinder piston moves to the right and forces the slave cylinder to the right(hydraulic assist). Oil in the master cylinder spring chamber flows to the tank. The slavecylinder directs oil to brake piston to engage the brakes and blocks the oil in the brake circuitfrom returning to tank.

The oil in the brake circuit between the slave cylinder and wheel brake is a closed circuit.When the brakes are released, the slave cylinder moves to the left and oil from the brake pistonreturns to the slave cylinder. With the slave cylinder in the released position, the oil in thebrake circuit (between the slave cylinder and wheel brake) can flow between the right and leftbrake circuits only (closed circuit). The bridge passage connects the slave cylinders together,which allows the pressures to equalize when both brake pedals are depressed at the same time.

When the brakes are released, the master cylinder piston moves to the right and oil in themaster cylinder chamber is drained to tank through the boost brake valve.

Implement and Steering Pump

The implement and steering pump on the 416E/422E/428E machines is a similar design andoperates the same as the pump on the "A" Series machines. The pump is located below the cabfloor plate. The pump control valve is mounted on top of the pump and contains a flowcompensator spool and pressure cutoff spool. The implement and steering pump supplies oilflow to the loader valve group, backhoe valve group, and steering system.

This illustration shows the 416E/422E/428E pump hydraulic circuit with the engine OFF.When the pump is OFF, a spring holds the swashplate at maximum angle.

The pump control valve contains two spools.

The flow compensator (margin spool) regulates output flow in response to the load signalreceived through the signal network. The flow supplied by the pump will be the amount offlow required to keep supply pressure above the signal pressure. The difference between supplypressure and the signal pressure is called "margin pressure." The pressure cutoff spool limitsmaximum system pressure and serves as the relief valve for the system.

Both spools have adjustment screws. Low pressure standby and margin pressure are controlledby the flow compensator. The flow compensator will simultaneously increase or decrease bothpressures, but not necessarily by the same amount.

As the pump produces oil flow, system pressure begins to build because oil flow is blocked atthe implement control valves. This pressure is felt at the margin spool and the pressure cutoffspool. The margin spool moves right against the low spring force and permits system oil toflow to the actuator piston. As pressure in the actuator piston increases, the piston overcomesthe bias spring force and moves the swashplate to a reduced angle.

When no flow is demanded from the implements, no signal pressure is generated. At thisminimum swashplate angle, the pump produces enough flow to compensate for system leakageat a pressure to provide instantaneous implement response when an implement is activated.

When an implement is activated, a signal is sent to the pump control valve. This signal plus themargin spring force overcomes the supply pressure at the left end of the spool. The spool thenmoves to the right, blocks the oil flow to the actuator and opens a passage to drain. Pressure atthe actuator piston is reduced or eliminated which allows the bias spring to move theswashplate to an increased angle. The pump upstrokes to produce more flow.

As pump flow increases, pump supply pressure also increases. When the pump supply pressureincreases and equals the sum of the signal pressure plus the margin spring pressure, the marginspool moves to a metering position and the system becomes stabilized. The swashplate is heldat a relatively constant angle to maintain the required flow.

The difference between the signal pressure and the pump supply pressure is the value of themargin spring.

When less oil flow is needed, the pump destrokes. When signal pressure decreases, oil pressuremoves the margin spool to the right. The actuator piston then overcomes spring force andmoves the swashplate to a reduced angle. The pump produces less flow.

The pressure compensator or cutoff spool is in parallel with the margin spool. The pressurecompensator limits the maximum system pressure for any pump displacement. The pressurecompensator spool is forced down during normal operation by the pressure cutoff spring.

During a stall or when system pressure is maximum, signal pressure is equal to pump supplypressure. The combination of the signal pressure and the margin spring forces the margin spoolto the left. This movement of the margin spool normally opens a passage in the pump controlvalve for the oil in the actuator piston to drain, causing the pump to upstroke.

However, since the supply pressure is high enough, the pressure cutoff spool is now forced tothe right against the spring. The movement of the pressure cutoff spool blocks the oil from theactuator piston from going to drain and allows supply oil to the actuator. Oil pressure at theactuator allows it to overcome spring force to destroke the pump.

The pump is now at minimum flow and pump supply pressure is at maximum. This conditionis maintained for a single implement in a stall condition.

When the engine is started, the flow from the pump is directed to the priority valve. With thespool to the left, the pump supply oil is directed to the HMU. As the HMU passage fills, oilalso enters the axial-drilled hole in the priority spool and flows to the left end of the spool.

As pressure builds on the left end, the spool starts to move to the right, against spring force.The spool begins to restrict the oil flow to the HMU supply passage as the spool continues tomove to the right. Oil restricted by the priority spool from entering the HMU supply passageflows to the loader implement valves.

The priority spool never completely blocks the flow of oil to the HMU supply passage. A smallamount of oil is allowed to flow through the dynamic bleed orifice to the priority spool springcavity where it becomes signal oil.

Signal oil flows from the spring cavity through the HMU signal line to the HMU, where the oilflows to the tank. This action causes the priority spool to meter oil continuously to the HMUsupply passage to maintain a predetermined pressure in the HMU supply passage. Thispredetermined pressure in the HMU supply passage provides instantaneous steering responsewhen the steering is activated. The metering action also reduces spool travel when steering isrequired, which results in faster steering response.

With all implements in HOLD in this closed-center system, this signal oil is sensed at the pumpcontrol valve resulting in an increase in the LOW PRESSURE STANDBY setting.

The lift cylinder moves to the RAISE position. Return oil flows from the rod end of thecylinder around the lift spool back to the tank.

The oil also flows around the compensator and enters the signal oil passage. The signal oilchamber pressure and the compensator spring force balances against the oil pressure in thepump supply passage. The oil in signal passage flows to the resolver.

Ride Control System

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

The Ride Control System components include the ride control switch (1), ride control relay (2),ride control solenoids (3), ride control accumulator (4), and ride control pressure switch (5).

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

The ride control switch includes an ON and OFF position. When the ride control switch is inthe OFF position, the ride control solenoids are not energized. To energize the ride controlrelay and solenoids, the pressure switch must be closed. The pressure switch senses the loaderlift cylinder rod end pressure. When the rod end pressure is below the ride control actuationpressure, the switch closes.

NOTE: The pressure switch prevents the Ride Control System from activating if thepressure in the rod end of the loader lift cylinder is too high. An example is when theloader arms are used to lift the front wheels off the ground. If the Ride Control Systemwas engaged, the machine would fall to the ground.

If the macine ground speed is less than approximately 9.5 kilometers per hour (6 mph), the ridecontrol system will not engage.

NOTE: On 420E/430E/432E/434E/442E and 444E machines equipped with anautoshift transmission, the Ride Control System is monitored by the Machine ECM andwill be discussed later in the presentation.

This illustration shows a hydraulic schematic of the Ride Control System. With the RideControl System ON and the lift control valve in HOLD, oil is blocked at both the rod and headends of the lift cylinders.

When the ride control solenoids are energized, the head ends of the loader lift cylinders areconnected to the ride control accumulator and the rod ends of the loader lift cylinders are opento the tank.

When the machine is driven over rough terrain with the Ride Control System ON, the loader liftcylinders extend and retract. As the lift cylinders extend, oil displaced from the rod ends of thecylinders flows to the tank and oil which is stored in the accumulator flows into the head endsof the cylinders. As the lift cylinders retract, oil displaced from the head ends of the cylindersflows into the accumulator, and oil is drawn from the tank into the rod ends of the cylinders.The accumulator acts as a shock absorber when the cylinders retract, providing a smoother ride.

When the Ride Control System is OFF, the ride control solenoids are not energized. The checkvalves seat and block the passage from the rod ends of the lift cylinders to the tank and the headends of the cylinders to the accumulator.

This illustration shows the mechanically controlled boom valve in the 416E/422E/428Emachines in the RAISE position. When the backhoe joystick is moved to the BOOM RAISEposition, the boom spool is moved to the left. Pump oil flows past the boom spool and acts onthe pressure compensator valve. The compensator valve moves up and oil flows to the rod endof the boom cylinder.

The boom cylinder moves to the RAISE position. Return oil flows from the head end of thecylinder around the boom spool back to the tank.

The oil also flows around the compensator and enters the signal oil passage. The signal oilchamber pressure and the compensator spring force balances against the oil pressure in thepump supply passage. The oil in signal passage flows to the resolver. If the boom circuit is theonly active circuit, or if the lift circuit has a work port pressure higher than the other circuitsthat are active, the oil pressure from the boom circuit acts on the pump actuator to control pumpoutput.

Implement and Steering Pump

The implement and steering pump on the 420E/430E/432E/434E/442E and 444E machines issimilar to the "D" Series machines, but now includes a torque control solenoid (not visible).The torque control solenoid provides an additional pump setting.

The implement and steering pump (1) is located below the floor plate in the cab. The pumpcontrol valve (2) contains a torque control spool adjustment screw (3) and a flow compensatoradjustment screw (4). The adjustment screws and the load sensing pressure tap (5) areaccessible from the cab.

In the "D" Series machines, the pressure cutoff spool in the pump served as the relief valve forthe hydraulic system. In the "E" Series machines, the signal relief valve, located in the backhoevalve outlet manifold, serves as the hydraulic system relief valve since the system is PPPC.The margin spool or flow compensator is located in the pump control in the same location asthe former pressure cutoff valve was located. The torque control spool is located in the pumpcontrol in the same location as the margin spool or flow compensator valve was located.

The new system also features a margin relief valve, located in the backhoe outlet manifold,which increases pump flow in a standby condition to improve response. The margin reliefvalve provides the system with similar operating characteristics as an open center system.

NOTE: DO NOT adjust the torque control spool. If adjustment is required, pleasecontact DSN-CPI to get the latest recommendations. The torque control spring is setlower than the flow compensator.

Steering and Implement Pump Operation

With all the implements in HOLD, the steering priority valve bleeds some supply oil through adynamic bleed orifice back to the tank through the HMU. This oil flow creates a load sensingsignal, which is sensed at the pump flow compensator.

The LOW PRESSURE STANDBY reading will be higher than margin pressure on "E" Seriesmachines due to an internal minimum angle stop. This minimum angle stop is not adjustable,which prevents the swashplate from moving to a true minimum angle position.

As shown in the illustration above, the swashplate is at the prescribed minimum angle, applyingthe maximum setting on the spring in the torque limiter. The spring setting of the torque limiterchanges with the swashplate angle. As the swashplate angle is increased, the spring setting isreduced.

The pump supply pressure moves the flow compensator up, which opens asmall passage between the spool lands and the body of the pump control valve. The flowcompensator spool meters reduced pump supply oil to the large actuator piston in the pumpcase moving the swashplate to an angle that satisfies system needs.

When pump flow matches system needs, the pump supply pressure equals the sum of thesystem load pressure plus the flow compensator spring pressure. The flow compensator is in ametering position and the system is stabilized.

CONSTANT FLOW is maintained until there is a change in system flow requirements.

This illustration shows a Pressure/Flow (P-Q) Curve Chart for the steering and implementpump. The purpose of this chart is to show how the torque limiter affects the maximum flowrate for the loader and backhoe sections when the torque limiter opens.

Initial pump flow on the chart is low which reflects STANDBY pressure from the pump. Whenflow is required, the chart illustrates an increase in pump flow that slowly decreases as pressurein the system increases.

The flow compensator spool regulates pump flow when system pressure and flow requirementsare below the curves. This is the area shown in pink.

The first sweeping curved line (Low Torque Mode) shows where the torque limiter has controlover the pump flow. The torque limiter destrokes the pump as the system pressure increases.The rate of destroke closely follows the torque curve of the engine.

The second sweeping curved line (High Torque Mode) shows where the torque control solenoidchanges the operating characteristics of the torque limiter providing an additional (higher)pump setting. This area is shown in red.

This chart shows the operational parameters of the new torque control solenoid. When thesolenoid is energized, the pump is in the high torque mode, and when the solenoid is de-energized, the pump is in the low torque mode.

When the machine is in a directional mode, FORWARD and/or REVERSE, and the implementsare operating, the pump solenoid is not energized until a certain engine rpm is obtained. Bykeeping the pump solenoid de-energized at a lower engine rpm, all of the available enginehorsepower is utilized by the power train for optimum efficiency.

As the power train and hydraulic system consume engine horsepower, the engine rpm decreasesand the torque control solenoid is de-energized. The hydraulic torque on the pump is decreasedand the engine rpm increases to regain the needed horsepower for full utilization of the powertrain.

There is a slight delay when the torque control solenoid is energized or de-energized basedupon engine rpm. This delay also occurs when the directional mode is changed (forward toreverse) and assists in stabilizing the engine and the hydraulic system.

The torque limiter monitors the pump swashplate angle and the pump discharge pressure. Thetorque limiter pressure setting varies with the swashplate angle: the greater the swashplateangle, the lower the pressure setting on the torque limiter spring due to the mechanical linkagebetween the swashplate and the torque limiter. As the swashplate angle decreases, themechanical linkage increases the force on the torque limiter springs, therefore, increasing thepressure setting of the torque limiter.

When a higher flow rate from the pump is required, the flow compensator receives a signalfrom the control valve to move the pump to maximum displacement. With the increasedpressure in the passage between the torque control spool and the torque limiter, the torquelimiter opens and allows oil to drain to the tank.

As the oil drains to tank at the torque limiter, a pressure reduction occurs at the top of thetorque control spool, which allows oil to start flowing through the axial drilled passage in thetorque control spool. Due to the reduced pressure at the top of the torque control spool andincreased pump discharge pressure at the bottom of the torque control spool, the torque controlspool shifts up. When the torque control spool shifts up, oil is metered across the flowcompensator spool to the large actuator piston which moves the swashplate toward minimumangle.

When the appropriate engine speed for a loading or backhoe operation is obtained, the torquecontrol solenoid is ENERGIZED. With the torque control solenoid energized, the variabledisplacement pump flow increases.

Pump discharge oil flows through the solenoid and a large and small orifice. The combineddischarged pump flow increases the pressure on the top of the torque control spool. Thisincreased pressure at the top of the torque control spool keeps the torque control spool seated.At the same time a higher work port pressure occurs which generates a higher signal pressure tokeep the flow compensator in the down position. The combination of the two spools assists inkeeping the swashplate in a partially upstroked position to meet the higher operating flowrequirements and system pressure.

Due to the mechanical linkage working between the swashplate of the pump and the torquelimiter, the torque limiter spring force increases. With the increased spring force the pump willdestroke at a higher pressure.

In summary, full pump supply pressure is always available, however, flow is regulated tomaintain maximum input torque from the engine.

Due to the torque control solenoid, the torque limiter has two different torque curves: one forthe low torque mode, and one for the high torque mode.

When the hydraulic demand falls below the conditions stated above, the torque limiter closes.The flow compensator now has control over the pump swashplate angle to regulate pump flowand meet the required system pressure and flow demands.

This illustration shows the mechanically controlled loader valve on the 420E/430E machines.The loader valve is closed-center. The loader valve includes the lift and tilt valves in thestandard loader valve group. The tilt valve contains two line relief valves. The auxiliary valve(if equipped) contains one line relief valve.

The loader valves in the 420E/430E are a PPPC type, but there are no resolvers in the signalnetwork. The pressure compensator creates the load signal pressure by diverting part of thesupply oil going to the cylinder into the signal line. The highest load signal is sensed at allcompensator valves and at the pump control valve.

The pressure compensator valve maintains a controlled pressure differential across the spool tocontrol flow to the circuit. If more than one circuit is used at a time, the circuit with the highestworkport pressure is used to regulate the flow through each control valve.

The "E" Series Backhoe Loader hydraulic system is similar to the PPPC hydraulic system usedon other Caterpillar products. The system shown incorporates the flow control, signalduplication, and resolver into one component called a pressure compensator valve.

The pressure compensator valve acts as a resolver to compare the different circuit workportpressures and to send a signal pressure equal to the highest circuit pressure back to the pump.

The priority valve in the 420E/430E loader valve is a three-section valve that operates similarlyto the two-section priority valve in the 416E/422E/428E loader valve previously described.

Oil flows from the pump to the priority valve. Before the engine is started, the spring holds thepriority spool to the left. When the engine is started, oil flow from the pump is directed to thepriority valve. With the spool to the right, the pump supply oil is directed to the HMU. As theHMU passage fills, oil also enters the axial-drilled hole in the priority spool and flows to theright end of the spool.

As pressure builds on the right end, the spool starts to move to the left, against spring force.Oil continues to flow to the HMU and restricted oil flows to the loader valves. As the priorityvalve spool continues to move to the left, oil is restricted by the priority spool from entering theHMU supply passage and all oil flows to the loader implement valves.

When the priority spool is moved completely to the left, oil flow to the HMU supply passage isblocked.

Ride Control System

The Ride Control System, on machines with the optional autoshift transmission, is controlledby the Machine ECM (1). The Machine ECM monitors the position of the ride control switch (2) and determines when to operate the ride control system.

On machines with the autoshift transmission, the ride control switch is a three position switch;OFF, ON, and AUTO.

When the ride control switch is in the ON position, power is transferred to the ride control relay (3). Power available at the ride control switch illuminates the indicators in the switch andthe ride control indicator on the instrument panel.

The Machine ECM will energize the ride control solenoids (4) via the ride control relay if thepressure switch (5) is closed.

When the ride control switch is in the AUTO position, the Machine ECM uses input from thepressure switch and the transmission speed sensor to determine when to operate the ride controlsystem.

This illustration shows the pilot controlled backhoe valve on the 420E/430E machines. Thestandard backhoe valve group contains six control valves. A valve group with seven or eightcontrol valves is available if the machine is equipped with an E-Stick valve and/or auxiliaryvalve.

All the valves are pressure compensated including the stabilizer valves. The backhoe valves inthe 420E/430E are also a PPPC type similar to the pilot controlled loader valves. The pressurecompensator creates the load signal pressure by diverting part of the supply oil going to thecylinder into the signal line. The highest load signal is sensed at all compensator valves in thebackhoe group and at the pump control valve.

There is a check valve in the signal network that prevents the loader compensators from sensingthe signal.

Oil from the pump flows into the backhoe valve then to the individual valve spools and thepilot pressure reducing valve. The pilot pressure reducing valve reduces the pump oil pressureto pilot pressure. Pilot oil pressure is available to the pilot manifold, pilot accumulator and tothe E-Stick and auxiliary solenoid valves. The pilot accumulator supplies oil to the brake boostvalve.

The pilot controlled backhoe valve is also equipped with a pattern switching valve. The patternswitching valve allows the backhoe controls to be changed from an excavator to a backhoecontrol pattern.

The outlet manifold contains the load sensing relief valve, the flushing/margin relief valve, andthe signal drain valve.

The signal relief valve limits the maximum signal pressure for the backhoe valve. On the434E/444E machines, the signal relief valve limits the maximum signal pressure for thebackhoe valve and the loader valve.

The signal drain valve provides a means for the signal oil to flow to the tank when all circuitsare returned to HOLD.

The pressure differential relief valve directs some of the pump oil flow to the tank in thestandby condition because the pump produces more output flow than is required for leakagemakeup. The pressure differential relief valve directs some of the pump oil flow to the tank inthree distinct circumstances.

1. In standby condition with all control valves in NEUTRAL (pressure differential reliefvalve functions as a flushing valve).

2. When a cylinder is suddenly bottomed or stalled.

3. When the control valve is rapidly returned to NEUTRAL.

NOTE: The stabilizer, boom, and stick valves each include two anti-drift valves, whichstop implement drift.

When oil is directed from the swing control valve, the boom swings to the right. When theswing control valve is moved from the SWING RIGHT position to the NEUTRAL position, oilis blocked. The continued motion of the boom and stick causes pressure to increase, causingthe boom to swing to the left.

As pressure continues to increase the boom swings back to the right. The boom continues tomove to the right until the pressure stabilizes. The swing cushion valves relieve the oil pressureby directing the oil from the rod end of the left cylinder and head end of the right cylinder tothe rod end of the right cylinder and the head end of the left cylinder.

The swing cushion valves will operate identically when the boom swings in either direction.

STEERING SYSTEM

Two Wheel Steering

This illustrations shows the steering system on the 416E/422E/428E machines.

The steering system features a dynamic signal the same as the "D" Series machines. With thedynamic signal and the steering in HOLD, the steering priority spool sends oil through theHMU signal line and HMU back to the tank. When the steering wheel is turned, this dynamicsignal oil shifts the priority spool to direct pump supply oil to the HMU, resulting in fastersteering response than systems without a dynamic signal.

The "E" Series HMU also includes two crossover relief and makeup valves, and a load sensingrelief valve. The crossover relief and makeup valves provide steering capability when theengine is not running by allowing oil to recirculate between the HMU and the steering cylinderwhen the steering wheel is turned.

The load sensing relief valve limits the maximum load sensing signal for the loader valvegroup.

Signal oil is sent from the steeringpriority valve past the check valve to the HMU where the oil combines with the cylinder oil.The pressure in the HMU signal line is limited to the steering cylinder port pressure. Thesignal oil also enters the signal network and flows to the pump control valve. The pump thenincreases flow to meet the steering system flow requirements.

Oil from the pump flows past the steering priority valve to the HMU and to the double rodsteering cylinder. When the machine makes a turn, the HMU directs oil to the left side of thecylinder piston and opens the right side to the tank. A turn in the other direction operatesinversely.

The check valve in the pump supply line between the HMU and the loader valve inlet manifoldprevents steering "kickback" due to an external force. The makeup valve provides steeringcapability when the engine is not running by allowing oil to recirculate between the HMU andthe steering cylinder when the steering wheel is turned.

All Wheel Steer

The AWS system is the same as the updated "D" Series machines. The AWS system isavailable on the 432E and 442E models and standard on the 434E and 444E models.

The line relief valves protect the rear steering cylinder and lines from external shocks and heatbuild up. The line reliefs will also open during the Circle Steer Mode if the rear steeringcylinder reaches the end of its stroke prior to the front steering cylinder.

The pilot valve is energized to direct oil to the pilot operated check valves to unseat them whenCIRCLE STEER is selected.

The circle steer valve allows TWO WHEEL STEERING when the valve is de-energized byallowing oil to pass between the two steering lines for the front axle.

When CIRCLE STEER is selected, the circle steer valve is energized to block the flow betweenthe two steering lines.

The four upper pilot operated check valves are controlled by the circle steer pilot valve. Whenthe pilot valve is energized, supply oil unseats the four pilot operated check valves. This actionconnects the front steering cylinder lines with the rear steering cylinder lines.

The two lower pilot operated check valves are unseated by supply oil to the rear steeringcylinder whenever one of the Independent Rear Maneuvering (IRM) solenoids are energized.

The orifice check valves in the lines to the rear axle prevent cylinder voiding.

These illustrations show the AWS components located in the cab and on the rear axle.

The AWS mode select switch (1) allows the operator to choose between the three steeringmodes: TWO WHEEL STEER, CIRCLE STEER, and IRM STEERING. The AWS indicatorlamp (2) illuminates when CIRCLE STEER or IRM STEERING is selected.

The buttons (3) on the right loader joystick control the rear steering cylinder (4) in the IRMSTEERING mode.

The AWS position gauge (5) displays the position of the rear axle relative to the centerline ofthe machine. The rear steering position sensor (6) senses the position of the rear steeringcylinder and sends a variable signal to the AWS position gauge.
