5.3 Connecting Implement Hydraulic Lines to the Tractor
With the tractor shut down and secured in position,
relieve hydraulic pressure from the tractor by
moving the control levers back and forth several
times or placing the levers in the float position.
When connecting the mower hydraulic lines, keep
hoses, quick couplers, and swivels free of
contamination. Never leave a disconnected hose
end open and cap the tractor hydraulic outlet ports
when not in use. If the tractor ports or cutter
hydraulic hose ends become contaminated, wipe
clean with a rag before connecting.
Hydraulic Line Support
After connecting the cutter hydraulic lines to the tractor, support the hoses with the equipped brackets. Ensure
that hoses do not contact the driveline, do not bind while turning, and do not become pinched or kinked.
Hydraulic Cylinder Priming
Hydraulic Cylinders must be filled with hydraulic oil before removing the wing transport pins to lower the cutter
wings. Hydraulic cylinders and lines are filled by holding the valve control levers in the raised position until the
cylinders fully extended. Place control levers in the float position and repeat process a second time. Ensure
wings are entirely supported by the cylinder before removing the transport pins. NEVER drive out pins and
NEVER remove pins that have tension on them.
NEVER FORCE THE WING LIFT LOCK PINS OUT OF THEIR LOCK POSITION AS THE
WINGS MAY SUDDENLY DROP CAUSING INJURY OR DEATH.
