Coupling hydraulic connections
In order to be able to use hydraulically actuated attachments, the hy-
draulic connections of the attachment must be coupled to the hydraulic
connections on the loader unit.
ü The attachment must be coupled to the loader unit and securely
locked.
ü The hydraulic connections are depressurized.
1. Remove the protective caps from the hydraulic connections on the
loader unit.
ð To do this, press the hydraulic connections with the hydraulic
hose forward.
2. Remove the protective caps from the hydraulic connections on the
attachment.
3. Push the hydraulic connections from the attachment into the open-
ing of the hydraulic connections on the loader unit.
4. To check whether the hydraulic connections are correctly engaged,
gently pull the hydraulic hoses from the attachment.
ð Hydraulic connections must not come loose.
5. Check that the hydraulic system of the attachment and the hydraulic
connections are tight.
ð Hydraulic connections are coupled.
For working with attachments: see Operating the front hydraulic connec-
tions on page 136.
Uncoupling the hydraulic connections
ü The hydraulic connections are depressurized.
1. Place the tank under the hydraulic connections to catch any leaking
hydraulic oil.
2. Release the hydraulic connections.
ð To do this, press the hydraulic connections on the loader unit for-
ward and simultaneously pull on the hydraulic hose of the attach-
ment.
ð Hydraulic connection is disconnected.
3. Fit the protective caps onto the hydraulic connections.
4. Lay the hydraulic hoses over the attachment.
ð The attachment can be uncoupled.
