Hydraulic Hook-up
!
WARNING!
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to pene-
trate the skin. Check all hydraulic lines and hoses before apply-
ing pressure. Fluid escaping from a very small hole can be
almost invisible. Use paper or cardboard, not body parts, to
check for suspected leaks. If injured, seek medical assistance
from a doctor that is familiar with this kind of injury. Foreign
fluids in the tissue must be surgically removed within a few
hours or gangrene will result.
Great Plains hydraulic hoses are colour coded to help you
hook-up hoses to your tractor outlets. Hoses that go to the
same remote valve are marked with the same colour.
Refer to Figure 36
To distinguish hoses on the same hydraulic circuit, refer to
plastic hose holder. Connect hose under extended cylin-
der to outlet you choose for cylinder extension. Connect
hose under retracted symbol to outlet for cylinder
retraction.
Connect hydraulic hoses from tongue cylinder to one trac-
tor remote valve. Connect hoses from transport-lift cylin-
ders to another tractor remote valve.
