a. Warm hydraulic oil to operating temperature.
b. Be sure to operate at full governed engine speed
as relief valve setting will vary with flow rate.
c. Use a good quality 4,000 psi (27,580 kPa) gage
equipped with a short pressure hose and 1/4 inch female
quick disconnect. Be certain to calibrate pressure gage
