Komatsu 3FD-61-24310 Control Valve Assy for FD50/60-7

Overview

The 3FD-61-24310 CONTROL VALVE ASS’Y is the hydraulic control valve assembly specified for Komatsu FD50, FD60 and FD70 series pneumatic tire forklifts. Sitting at the center of the hydraulic circuit, it directs pressurized oil to the lift and tilt cylinders so the operator can raise, lower and tilt the mast smoothly and predictably. When a control valve wears, symptoms such as slow lifting, mast drift, jerky movement or internal leakage quickly erode productivity and safety. Fitting a new 3FD-61-24310 assembly restores precise hydraulic response and helps protect pumps, cylinders and hoses from unnecessary strain.

Compatibility

The 3FD-61-24310 for FD50/60-7 and related models covers Komatsu 5 to 7 ton class internal combustion forklifts across the -7 and -8 generations, including:

• Komatsu FD50/60 series (-7 and -8 generations), including the FD50/60-8-EC and FD50E/60E-7 configurations
• Komatsu FD70 series (-7 and -8 generations), including FD70-7-US and FD70-8-US variants

Before ordering, always confirm fitment against the model and serial number on your forklift’s nameplate. If you are unsure whether the 3FD-61-24310 matches your machine, send us the details and our parts specialists will verify compatibility for you.

Quality and Reliability

This control valve assy is supplied under the original Komatsu part number 3FD-61-24310 and is built to match Komatsu’s original design in fit, function and hydraulic performance. Machined spools, durable seals and correctly sized ports support consistent flow control under the continuous duty cycles typical of warehouses, ports, lumber yards and heavy manufacturing. Because it is a direct replacement for the original assembly, it lines up with existing mounting points and hydraulic connections, helping you complete the swap efficiently and return the forklift to service.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

• Relieve hydraulic system pressure and disconnect the battery before starting work.
• Position drip trays under the valve and cap open hoses to keep dirt out of the circuit.
• Compare the removed valve with the new 3FD-61-24310 to confirm port layout and mounting pattern.
• Fit new seals and O-rings, and torque mounting fasteners to the values in the Komatsu service manual.
• Refill with the specified hydraulic oil, bleed air from the system, then cycle lift and tilt slowly while checking for leaks.
• Clean hydraulic fluid and routine inspections will extend the service life of the new valve.
