HYDRAULIC CONTROL VALVE
The control valve that controls the hydraulic functions of the machine is located under the vehicle and is only
accessible from beneath the machine. When working on this, or any other item located under the machine,
great care must be taken to ensure the machine is securely positioned before attempting to access or work on
the component.
Never attempt to work under any machine that it not safely supported and chocked using
suitable equipment specifically designed for the task and capable of supporting its weight.
Access to the valve is gained by removal of the protection plate which is held in position by six bolts.
