• Oil
may
spurt
out
if
caps
or
filters
are
removed
or
pipes are disconnected
before
releasing
the
pressure in
the
hydraulic
system.
•
When removing plugs
or
screws,
or
when disconnecting hoses, stand
to
the
side and
loosen
them
slowly
to
gradually release
the
internal
pressure before removing.
•
Do
not
release
pressure:
•
When
the
attachment is
not
in
the
rest position.
•
During operation
of
the
attachment.
(Due
to
danger
of
unexpected
movement
of
the attachment)
•
Do
not
couple
or
uncouple
with
flow
and/or
pump
pressure in
the
circuit.
Disconnection
or
connection is
only
allowed
with
residual
pressure.
• Hydraulic fluid,
tubes, fittings and
quick-
couplers
can
get
hot
when running
machine and attachments. Be
careful
when connecting and disconnecting
quick-couplers.
IMPORTANT:
When the
couplings
are
disconnected,
it
is suggested
to
use
the
protection caps.
IMPORTANT: Before uncoupling,
be
sure
to
release
the
residual
pressure.

Coupling
and
uncoupling
1.
Before
coupling, clean
the flat
mating
surfaces of quick
coupling
to avoid the
inclusion of dirt into the circuit.
2.
Release
the residual
pressure from the
upper
coupling
(a)
(a')
by
pulling
the
knob
(1)
outward first and then upward.
Release
the
residual
pressure from the
lower coupling
(b)
(b') by pulling the knob
(1)
outward first and then downward.
3.
To
couple, push the
male half
towards the
female half
or vice versa.
4.
To
uncouple, pull
back the
sleeve
of
the
female.
Connecting the Hydraulic
Circuits
To
connect the attachment
hydraulic lines,
use the following procedures:
1.
Connect the attachment
hydraulic lines
to
ports
(a)
or
(a')
and
(b)
or
(b').
When fitted with a
hydraulic
breaker:
a.
Connect the return circuit to port
(b)
or
(b') and the supply
circuit to port
(a)
or
(a
'
).
b.
Turn
on
the
flow selector
switch and
select "one-way".
Refer to page
58,
"Flow Selector
Switch."
Some
attachments may have a case
drain, which needs to be connected to
the
small
port
(T)
.
2.
When connecting
is
complete,
purge air
from the
hydraulic lines.
a.
Start and
run
the engine at
low idle
with
no
load
for
10
minutes.
