INSTALLING THE HYDRAULIC BRACKET
The bracket is intended to be universal to accommodate valve mounting on various types of
machines. It may be necessary to modify the provided brackets, such as drilling additional
mounting holes, to fit the desired application.
The valve-mounting bracket is made of two parts. The bracket with the valve mounting holes
may be used independently and the secondary mounting plate may be discarded if not needed.
Mount the bracket as close as possible to the steering orbital, in order to keep the hydraulic
hoses as short as possible. Also, mount the bracket in a position that will protect the valve
from getting damaged from mud, crops, etc.
Mount the bracket mounting plate by using existing holes in the vehicle frame. The bracket
mounting plate may need to have additional holes drilled in order to accommodate various
hole patterns.
**NOTE: NEVER DRILL NEW HOLES INTO THE VEHICLE FRAME
If both brackets are used in the installation, first mount the bracket mounting plate to the
vehicle. Once the plate is installed, mount the valve mounting bracket to the mounting plate
bracket using the supplied bolts and washers.
The bracket mounting plate is designed to provide valve height adjustment for easier hose
routing by using the five pairs of mounting holes. To adjust the bracket up or down, unbolt
the valve mounting bracket and move to the desired height and reattach using the supplied
bolts.
In some installations, it may be more appropriate to use only the valve mounting bracket. If
only the valve mounting bracket is used, mount the bracket using existing holes in the frame
to securely fasten the bracket to the frame.
