My water pressure on my 1990 schwing 32M is not very good unless it is almost full throtle. and when i turn the water on my auger won't turn it just stops, or if i have 3/4 full hopper and my RPMs are down it will stop turning. Any suggestions???

       JOHN BREAK OUT YOUR MANUAL,  IN MY BOOK CONTROL PANEL IS CHAPTER 10   ON PAGE 9-8 N SHOWS CONTROL BLOCK PUMP-WATER-AGITATOR.  NOTE THE VALVE CARTRIDGES (9 & 10)  THESE CONTROL HYDROLIC PRESSURE FOR THERE INDIVIDUAL CIRCUITS # 10 FOT AGITATOR-WATER. IF PIECE OF TRASH GET IN VALVE IT WILL STICK AND DUMP PRESSURE. START THERE , SOMETIMES JUST RE MOVING AND CLEANING IT DOES THE TRICK, YOU CAN PUSH THE VALVE OPEN AND SPRAY WITH BRAKE CLEAN OR AIR.

PART NUMBER 13860

Where is the valve located on the truck. Is it an expensive part to order? I will check this monday morning that you very much!

i had the same problem with my 32 last month took out the 2 valves that are located behind the hopper where you turn on and off the water pump and the agitator, cleaned them put it back and they are working like new.

break out the book. all will be clear. not necessary to replace usually. and there is some adjustability in valve.

Animal:  A couple of my outrigger valves are getting sticky and hard to actuate.  Do I just take 'em apart and clean them with brake cleaner to get them easy and smooth again?

DPT, MY KNOWLEDGE IS LIMITED. IM STILL TRYING TO FIND A SOURSE FOR THE HANDLES SO I DONT HAVE TO BUY COMPLETE VALVES. WHEN THEY STRIP YOU CAN TURN THEM OVER AND GET A LITTLE MORE LIFE OUT OF THEM. HAVENT BEEN THROUGH THAT. P.S. JOHN WATCH THE RUBBER O-RING ON THE CANISTER WHEN YOU PULL IT.
