This is a dosage valve, a critical component within the hydraulic system responsible for precisely controlling the flow and pressure of hydraulic fluid. Manufactured to meet Volvo's exacting standards, it ensures optimal performance and responsiveness of hydraulic functions, unlike a worn valve that may leak or fail to regulate pressure correctly. Operators might observe sluggish hydraulic operation, erratic boom or bucket movements, or a loss of hydraulic power when this valve is malfunctioning.

Flush hydraulic lines before fitting new components. Use only manufacturer-specified hydraulic fluid. Check O-rings and backup rings for correct orientation. Bleed air from system after installation.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
Initial signs of a failing dosage valve may include jerky or inconsistent operation of hydraulic functions like boom or bucket movements. If the issue progresses, the machine may lose significant hydraulic power, making it difficult or impossible to perform tasks. Extended operation with a faulty valve can lead to overheating of the hydraulic fluid and premature wear on other hydraulic components.
Thoroughly flush the hydraulic system with clean fluid before installing the new valve to remove any contaminants. Ensure the valve is installed in the correct orientation as indicated by any markings.
Inspect the hydraulic filter and fluid for contamination when replacing the dosage valve.
