UNLOADING & ASSEMBLY

HYDRAULIC REEL FORE-AFT KIT

INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS


3. Connect hoses (36' Header):

IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to fore-aft kit and/or reel, before moving reel with fore-aft kit:
a) Remove cylinder pins at rod ends and support cylinders to allow unobstructed movement of cylinder
rods.
b) Activate hydraulics, extending and retracting cylinders several times to fill system with oil and ensure
cylinders are in phase.
c) Reconnect cylinder rod ends.


WARNING: Never connect the fore-aft couplers to each other. This would complete the
circuit and allow the reel to slide unexpectedly.








































IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to reel from contact with diagonal brace, do not turn reel when it is
positioned fully back for transport.
