Release General
Units Affected RW-1015 units manufactured between July 2010 & June 22nd, 2011
Summary:
RW-1015 units with a Hydraforce locking valve (DC08-40), orifice disc, and Hydraforce
manifold body (7024840) may leak down due to interference between the locking valve and
orifice disc that prevents the cartridge from fully seating in the manifold body. The Parker
locking valve (CPD084P) is shorter and will not interfere with the orifice disc.
Identification:
See Figure 1 for an example of each brand of locking valve.
RW-1015 units manufactured prior to July of 2010 did not include orifice discs from the
factory but some units were retrofitted with orifice discs once in service (to eliminate
Railgear stuttering during deployment). RW-1015 units manufactured between July of 2010
and June 22nd of 2011 were built with Hydraforce locking valves and orifice discs. These
units may have an external leak or an internal leak that prevents the Railgear from holding
its stowed position. See Figure 2 for an illustration of the interference.
The Parker locking valve is DMF part number 241016 (Parker # CPD084P). The .070”
orifice disc used on RW-1015 is DMF part number 600613. Please have your DMF Railgear
serial number and vehicle unit number ready when ordering parts.
DMF will replace defective parts under DMF’s warranty terms. DMF may require the return of affected parts to
determine coverage.
