TM 5-3895-383-24Vibratory System ONIllustration 46Control Console(4) Amplitude selector.1.Place the amplitude selector (4) in the LOWAMPLITUDE position.2.With the engine at high idle (2350 ± 50 RPM), activatethe vibratory system. Observe the vibratory chargepressure at pressure test port (1). The vibratory chargepressure should be 130 ± 70 kPa (19 ± 10 psi) lowerthan the normal operating pressure that was measuredin "Vibratory System OFF".3.Place the amplitude selector (4) in the HIGHAMPLITUDE position. Repeat Step 2 again. Thecharge pressure should have the same value. This stepverifies the movement of the spool in the flushing valve.NOTE:The vibratory charge pressure is controlled by theflushing valve which is located in the motor. If thecharge pressure at test port (1) does not decreasefrom the pressure that was recorded in "VibratorySystem OFF", a problem may exist with theflushing valve and/or the adjustment of the chargerelief valve. The vibratory charge pressure shouldbe 130 ± 70 kPa (19 ± 10 psi) lower than thepressure that was recorded in "Vibratory SystemOFF". If the pressure decreases too much,excessive case leakage may exist or the flushingvalve may be improperly shimmed. The nominalstack height of the shims should be 6.5 mm (0.26inch). The Testing and Adjusting Vibratory MotorCase Drain Flow - Test and Adjust should beperformed if the charge pressure is too low.4.Stop the vibratory system and stop the engine.

Be prepared to collectthe fluid with suitable containers before opening anycompartment or disassembling any component containingfluids.Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, "Caterpillar Toolsand Shop Products Guide" for tools and supplies suitableto collect and contain fluids on Caterpillar products.Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations andmandates.NOTICETo avoid damage to the vibratory system during testing,always perform the testing with the vibratory drum on topof tires or on loose dirt. Tires will simulate a non-compacted soil condition.Never operate the vibratory system when the machine ison concrete.11-47
