We have a Hitatchi EX120 Grey Market ( there is no -# so i belive it to be a just a first run ex120, Serial # I2H-15076. Aprox 4000 hr's
So Far I have had no luck diagnosing, (13 years experiance in heavy equipment) Also had AIS Equpment send a tech. He is also baffeled. :Banghead
We purchase the machien and it worked good with decent power. Got it on its second job and the problems started.
1st. While traveling, I let go of the sticks and the right track kept going, I pushed the stick the other way and it continued in the same direction. I pulled up the control neutralizer valve, and the track kept turning. I shut the machien down. Thinking i had a broken spring on the main control valve spool. I disassembled the top of the main control valve. No broken spring, and no stuck spool. Reasembled and it fixed its self. Everything worked properly. Ever since I intermitantly have problems with the right track.
2nd. Using unit on our yard, everything working fine. All of the sudden, the unit started swinging to the right, and the left track started rotating. Thinking this was a pilot problem, I checked pilot pressure, right where it was suposed to be. Thinking it was posibly something in the shockless valve. I took the pilot lines off at the main control valve and capped the lines, and left the openings at the main valve open (so i wouldnt hydro-lock a spool in any direction) Started the unit and the track still turned and swing was still trying to swing. Shut the unit down and pulled top of main valve off again, again nothing visualy wrong, and no stuck spools. Reassembled, restarted unit, track still trying to turn and, unit still trying to swing. Played with controls for a while, and all the sudden everything went back to normal.
3rd. Used unit almost an entire day in yard everything working great! Shut the unit down to make a run. Came back restarted machien. All functions have almost no power.
Im baffeled if anyone has any insite on this problem please let me know.
Ps I have hydrolic schematics for this unit, in pdf format but they are too large to upload to this site. please let me know if you'd like to look at them and i'll email um to ya.
Note they denote a different model at the top but AIS assures me these are correct for this unit.
