Powering Attachments with
Hydraulic Function
Hydraulically-powered attachments are powered
using the auxiliary hydraulics circuits.
Connecting Hydraulic Attachments to
the Auxiliary Hydraulic Circuits
IMPORTANT: Connect hydraulically-powered
attachment hoses to the auxiliary circuits after the
attachment is secured to the hitch.
Disconnect hydraulically-powered attachment
hoses from the auxiliary circuits before removing
the attachment from the hitch.
NOTE: The connection procedure is the same for
both the normal and the optional high-flow auxiliary
hydraulic circuits.
Only connect high-flow attachment couplers to
the high-flow auxiliary couplers.
1. Empty the attachment and lower it to the
ground.
2. Shut off the engine and turn off the ignition.
Remove the ignition key and take it with you.
3. Raise the safety bars/arm rests to apply the
parking brake.
4. Clean the hydraulic connections on the hoses
and the connections.
5. Relieve the pressure in the standard auxiliary
hydraulics circuit by pushing the attachment
coupler firmly into the auxiliary coupler.
6. Continue to push the hose connections firmly
onto the auxiliary hydraulic connections until
they snap into place.
Route the hydraulic hoses so they do not get
pinched when the attachment is tilted forward
and back. Damaged or burst hydraulic hoses
could result.
IMPORTANT: Always check hydraulic function of
the attachment before use, to make sure the
hydraulic hoses have not been installed in reverse.
NOTE: Pressure build-up caused by heat in
hydraulic attachments left in direct sunlight can
make it difficult to connect the quick-couplers to the
fittings on the attachment.
Disconnecting Hydraulic Attachments
from the Auxiliary Hydraulics Circuit
1. Empty the attachment and lower it to the
ground.
2. Shut off the engine and turn off the ignition.
Remove the ignition key and take it with you.
3. Raise the safety bars/arm rests to apply the
parking brake.
4. Push on the hose connection locking rings until
the hose connections release.
