METHOD FOR RELEASING PRESSURE IN HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT
NOTICE
Finish the steps of operating the blade control lever to the front and back, and to the right and left, to
each stroke end within 15 seconds after the engine has stopped.
After the engine stops, pressure inside the accumulator begins to gradually go down, so the pressure
cannot be released except right after the engine stops.
