dissipate. Keep face and hands well clear of pressurised
hydraulic oil and wear protective glasses.

Before working on the hydraulic system ensure that the
engine is switched off and the starter key removed.
Operate the controls a few times to allow hydraulic pressure
to dissipate. If necessary "crack" one of the hose connections
to ensure that all pressure has gone. Drain the hydraulic
tank.

Cover exposed connections to prevent ingress of dirt.
3 On servo machines, remove the hoses from the
directional control ports D (4 off). Cover exposed
connections to prevent ingress of dirt.
