Next, adjust the top link to level out the tool.

Hydraulic Finish Rake

First attach the hydrualic hoses to your tractor. One hose will be equipped 

with the speed control valve. It is importmant that the speed control valve 

is attached to the outward flow port on the tractor. Be sure the valve is 

open completely to allow the lines and cylinder to fill completely with 

hydraulic fluid. Once the lines and cylinder have filled, then adjust the 

valve to the desired speed. Finally, check the tractor hydraulic fluid to 

confirm it is still at a safe level.

Opening or closing the speed control valve will determine how fast the 

rake pivots up or down with the hydraulics are engaged. This is critical if 

you tractor is equipped with a push button hydraulic system. The more 

closed the speed control valve is, the slower the rake will pivot. Likewise, 

the more open the speed control valve is, the faster the finish rake will 

pivot.
