Prepare Hitch

Disconnect Hose Fittings at Hitch

The existing fan hoses may be used to connect the new
PTO pump to hydraulic motors on the planter. The
hitch-end fittings are modified for this purpose.

Any other hydraulic motor circuits at the hitch, such as
hydraulic drive, are not re-used, and are left as-is at the
hitch end. They are capped at the rear ends.

Refer to Figure 20
Three fan hoses (supply, return and case drain) run from
the fan to the hitch. All fittings forward of the crimped-on
MORBs

are removed. These hoses are later

re-connected to the pump or reservoir supplied with the
PTO kit.

Newer planters have a polymer hose handle

on the fan

supply QD at the hitch. They may also have a handle on
the return line. Older planters do not have hose handles.

Set out an oil collection bucket near the hitch ends
of the hoses.

Remove any hose handle housings

10. Disconnect the hoses from the hitch fittings at the

MORB connectors

crimped on the hoses. Drain

the removed fittings and hose ends using the
bucket. Set the open hose ends in the bucket.
