4.2 Hydraulic Lift Operation
DANGER!
Always follow all safety rules stated in this manual and in your tractor manual. A
well-informed, safety-conscience operator is the best safeguard against accidents
or injuries.
Never allow extended running of any engine indoors! Exhaust gasses contain car-
bon monoxide, and can be fatal.
When properly operated, the hydraulic lift unit enables remote folding and safe transpor-
tation of the Articulator. As with all industrial equipment, improper operation of the hydrau-
lic lift unit may result in damage to equipment, serious personal injury, or fatal injury.
Follow the instructions carefully when operating the lift unit.
1. Disengage the PTO. Wait for all motion to stop.
2. Lift the articulator.
3. Slowly engage the hydraulics.
4. As the decks begin to move, watch carefully to insure there are no obstructions or binding
in the articulator.
5. When the articulator is folded to the extent of the mechanical stops and all safety chains
are secured, it is ready for transport.
6. Upon arriving at the work area, release all chains and activate the hydraulics, to lower the
outer decks.
7. Lower the articulator until it is in cut position.
