a. Inspect for possible contamination or damage from
shipping or handling. Sealing surface should be
smooth. Annular tool marks of (100uin) concentric
with thread permissible.
b. Lubricate the threads and the entire surface of the
cone with hydraulic fluid or a light lubricant.
c. Align mating componets for hand connection and
turn flare nut until sealing surfaces make full contact.
d. Torque nut to the values shown in “Torque Value
Chart” page 23. If a wrench pad is provided next to
nut, place a second wrench on pad to prevent flare
from rotating while being torqued.
e. When torquing nut onto a straight flared fitting, it may
be necessary to also place a wrench on the flared fit-
ting wrench pad to prevent it from turning during
assembly.
46. Alternate Assembly Method for JIC.
a. If torqued method not possible, then proceed to
steps b-e.
b. Lightly wrench tighten the nut until there is firm resis-
tance.
c. Place a wrench on wrench pad next to nut as near
the 6 0’clock position as possible.
d. Place second wrench on nut as near the 3 o’clock
position as possible.
e. Turn nut clockwise to no less than the 4 o’clock posi-
tion and no more than the 6 o’clock position.
Required rotation generally decreases as size
increases.

Attach Hose Clamps and Hose Wraps
47. When all the hoses are hooked up and tightened prop-
erly, put hose clamps on hoses as shown.
48. Install hose wraps on hoses as needed.
Note: Be sure and get hoses and light wiring harness fas-
tened properly so they do not drag. Check to be sure
there is enough slack in hinge area when folding ma-
chine the first time.
Hydraulic Hose Hookup
49. Great Plains hydraulic hoses are color coded to help you
hookup hoses to your tractor outlets. Hoses that go to
the same remote valve are marked with the same color.
Color Hydraulic Function
Black Lift (2 hoses)
Green Fold (2 hoses)

High Pressure Fluid Hazard:
Relieve pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines. Use
paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to check for leaks.
Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when
working with hydraulic systems. Escaping fluid under pressu
can have sufficient pressure to penetrate the skin causing se
ous injury. If an accident occurs, seek immediate medical
assistance from a physician familiar with this type of injury.
Only trained personnel should work on system hydraulics.
