I am looking at the Prince DRV to add a bit of safety to my front blade. The hydraulics I'm wanting to use this with is the two cylinders used for angle. Does anyone know what pressure I relief I need? It appears they make them from about 1300psi to 3000psi.

Most are adjustable.Will come pre-set;so increase if needed.Smart move putting one on for sure.I used to have a few problems before putting one on.

I can get an adjustable one as well. If I do that what should it be set to?

The paperwork that came with mine said factory set at 1500 PSI adjustable up to 3000. I left it at factory setting. No problems for 2 winters now. I tested mine by angling the plow and pushed against a tree to see if it worked and it did. It has not accidentally gone into relief mode just pushing snow.
