Hello everyone first post first tractor a Branson 4820R. I have a question that seems simple, where is the relief valve for FEL and what does it look like? my dealer says it has a cap on just remove the cap and there will be an alan head screw and turn it a half ture to turn up pressure. only had it a few days needed it to unload one ton pallets but it wont . Thanks all.

There is a cover protective plate "see image" with 2 12mm bolts one on face one on top, remove plate relief valve is behind it. Began turning it 1/4 turns until it would pickup pallet , total was 3/4 turn now it lifts it easily , I have a pressure gauge on order to see where I'm at now. By the way this was from dealers advice to increase pressure .

Definitely check it out with a pressure gauge. Should be around 2500 to 2600 PSI. It's never a good thing adjusting relief valves "by eye".

By the way, there is a Branson section on this forum in case you need it in the future.
