This is on a kx121-2
When I try to lift boom, curl bucket or use right track under load It feels like the hydraulics slam shut. It's not the same feeling as say when I stick out untill it pressure relieves and hold it. It's very abrupt. It works for a fraction of a second the loses pressure abruptly.
If I activate stick out or in a bit and use boom, curl or right track they work at low pressure I believe they are just sapping the left side of control valve or something like that. I'm not sure but I can still dig because I naturally run the stick a bit when I boom lift. It works decent if it's not reaching out. But if you are reaching far out and there is a bigger load on the boom cylinder because of the weight it barely works even with the stick.
The control valve has 2 sides and I have swapped the relief valves under the 2 main feeds. No change right side still pressure relieves.
Are there relief valves I am missing for that right side? It's a dual action piston pump system so one pump but acting as 2. Only one side has this problem.
Thanks much
