MAINTENANCE/SERVICE

HYDRAULICS

Check hydraulic hoses and lines daily for signs of

leaks.

WARNING: Avoid high-pressure

fluids. Escaping fluid can penetrate

the skin causing serious injury.

Relieve pressure before disconnecting

hydraulic lines. Tighten all connections before

applying pressure. Keep hands and body away

from pin- holes and nozzles which eject fluids

under high pressure. Use a piece of cardboard

or paper to search for leaks. If ANY fluid is

injected into the skin, it must be surgically

removed within a few hours by a doctor

familiar with this type of injury or gangrene

may result.

IMPORTANT: Keep hydraulic coupler tips and

connectors clean. See "Detaching Windrower from

Tractor" in Operation section for storage of hoses.

Dust, dirt, water and foreign material are the major

causes of hydraulic system damage.

AVOID HIGH-PRESSURE FLUIDS
