Hello ,I have a EX220-3 driving me nuts .Works good except when you just bearly pull the boom,bucket,arm, lever it loads engine and main pressure jumps from 800to 4000psi(engine in E) before anything moves if you pull a bit more the pressure dropes back down and increses/decreses as it should to match load and lever stroke.The swing ,R & L travel work great only those 3.When you are traveling and touch one of those 3 it will speed up then slow down the tracks like you hit the gas then brake in a car. Same in all modes & engine speeds . :Banghead Thanks.
