FLOW CONTROL ADJUSTMENT
Each remote valve has a flow control knob, 1, to
meter oil flow. The knob controls flow from 4 to 102
L/MIN (1 to 27 GPM). Turn the knob so the higher
vertical decal stripe, 2, is visible to increase the rate
of oil flow. Turn the knob so the lower vertical decal
stripe, 3, is visible to decrease the rate of oil flow.

WARNING
Before connecting or disconnecting hydraulic
hoses at the remote cylinders, relieve the
pressure in the circuit by first starting the engine
and then move the control switches fully forward
to the “float” position. Then stop the engine.
Make sure no one will be injured by moving
equipment when relieving pressure in the
system. Before disconnecting cylinders or
equipment, make sure the equipment or imple-
ment is supported securely.
Never work under equipment supported by a
hydraulic device because it may drop if the
control is actuated (even with the engine
stopped) or in the event of hose failure, etc.
always use a secure support for equipment
which must be serviced while in the raised
position. Make sure that oil contained within the
remote cylinders is clean and is of the correct
grade.
