1. Locking mechanism for protection of a hydraulic circuit, which hydraulic circuit comprises a pump, a tank and a hydraulically operable element, the locking mechanism comprising a 3/2-valve with a movable core cylinder inside a valve housing, the valve housing having two inlet ports, one inlet port being connectable to the pump and the other inlet port being connectable to a return pipe of said hydraulically operable element, said valve housing further having one outlet port, said outlet port being connectable to the tank, the core cylinder having bores so that in a first position the pump is connected to the tank and in a second position the return pipe of the hydraulically operable element is connected to the tank,wherein the locking mechanism is provided with a locking cylinder having a safety pin, which safety pin is movable between a locked position, wherein said safety pin locks the core cylinder in the second position thereof, and an unlocked position, wherein said core cylinder is moveable between said first and second position, said locking cylinder having an inlet port being connectable to the pump, so that said safety pin is urged towards the locked position upon pressurization of the locking cylinder by the pump. 2. Locking mechanism according to claim 1, wherein said movable core cylinder is rotatable within said valve housing. 3. Locking mechanism according to claim 1, wherein said movable core cylinder is moveable axially within said valve housing. 4. Locking mechanism according to claim 1, wherein a return spring is associated with said safety pin, so that the safety pin is biased towards the unlock position in the absence of pressurization of the locking cylinder by the pump. 5. Locking mechanism according to claim 1, in which the locking mechanism further comprises an electromotor and reduction gearbox driving said movable core cylinder. 6. Locking mechanism according to claim 1, wherein an electronic circuit is associated with said electromotor, said electronic circuit comprising an encoder unit for entering a code so that the electromotor becomes operable. 7. Locking mechanism according to claim 1, wherein an electronic circuit is associated with said electromotor, said electronic circuit comprising an oil pressure sensor which detects an oil pressure in said hydraulic circuit. 8. Locking mechanism according to claim 1, wherein an electronic circuit is associated with said electromotor, said electronic circuit comprising limit switches detecting the position of the movable core cylinder. 9. A locking mechanism for protection of a hydraulic circuit, which hydraulic circuit comprises a pump, a tank and a hydraulically operable element, the locking mechanism comprising a valve with a movable core cylinder inside a valve housing, the valve housing having one inlet port and one outlet port, the core cylinder having bores so that in a first position the inlet port is connected to the outlet port and in a second position the inlet port is blocked,wherein the locking mechanism is provided with a locking cylinder having a safety pin, which safety pin is movable between a locked position, wherein said safety pin locks the core cylinder in the second position thereof, and an unlocked position, wherein said core cylinder is moveable between said first and second position, said locking cylinder having an inlet port being connectable to the pump, so that said safety pin is urged towards the locked position upon pressurization of the locking cylinder by the pump.
