Electrical Displacement Control (EDC) Neutral
Adjustment
Remove the electrical connector at the EDC. Install a 0 to
300 PSI (0 to 21 BAR) gauge in each servo port.
Warning
The following procedure may require the
vehicle/machine to be disabled (wheels raised off
the ground, work function disconnected, ect.)
while performing the procedure in order to pre-
vent injury to the technician and bystanders.
Start the prime mover and slowly accelerate to normal
operating RPM.
Loosen lock nut with 1/2” wrench and slowly rotate the
neutral adjustment screw, with 5/32” internal hex wrench,
until the pressure is equal on both servo gages.
Slowly rotate the neutral adjust screw until one of the servo
gauges starts to increase in pressure.
Noting the amount of rotation, slowly rotate the neutral
adjust screw in the opposite direction until the other servo
gauge begins to increase in pressure.
Turn the neutral adjust screw back one-half the amount
noted above. Hold the neutral adjust screw and torque the
lock nut to 25 to 30 lbs•in. (2.8 to 3.4 Nm).
Stop the prime mover. Connect the control input. Remove
the servo pressure gauges. Return the machine to normal
operating condition. Restart prime mover and assure that
hydrostatic system is in neutral.
