Kobelco SK160lc-6e aux. flow adjustment

excavator ยท 2014-11-24 16:24

Does any one know the procedure for adjusting the auxiliary flow on a Kobelco SK160lc-6e? Serial number prefix is YM03. I have a service manual for the YM02 prefix but do not see any info on the aux. circuit. Also, how much difference is there between the YM02 and the YM03 machines? Thanks.

    Turn key on but do not start eng. select B mode. Press screen change switch 3-10 sec and release it, the screen should show flow rate settings. Press the mode switch to increase setting, press buzzer stop switch to decease setting. Press the screen change switch again to lock in settings. Turn key off and wait for everything to and you will be set. What attatchment are you going to run? There are many differences between the two machines and the service manuals are not interchangeable. wes

    Had someone call me the other day, they had mounted a mower on the machine and plumbed it to the breaker circuit. But when the mower is running no other functions work. I don't know how the breaker circuit is plumbed but thought this would be good to know before looking at it. Have no idea what mower it is, how big ect. And it's in an oil refinery so it's not a quick thing just to get in there to look at it. Thanks for the info.

    In that case a little more info you might need. Under the left arm rest there is a rocker switch with three circles on it. Rock it backwards for single pump flow to the auxiliary, rock it forward for two pump flow. wes
