Hydraulics for dummies, well I think I've understood the basics since our first tractor, and using the remotes for one implement, mower conditioner, way back when, however, I am really curious as to how the detent in a log splitter valve actually works, seems it builds up pressure and at some point kicks out the lever. How does that work or what is the basic principle ?
Reason I ask is mine kind of delays too long (after the rod is fully retracted) or I think it does and really slams home, not sure if this spike would shorten the high pressure hose life, the small pump or connection between the motor and pump, someone had mentioned one of those letting loose and flying parts, seems these valves should be able to be set to release a little sooner, instead of building up so much pressure, then slams home, with the effect like w water line at a 45 or 90 where you need a thrust block to absorb it. I tap the lever most times before the rod is fully retracted to avoid it.
Was just wondering about how these valves work and or if something can be adjusted or its just normal, let 'er rip, (even though it just does not seem like it should delay and slam home like this one does)
