High Pressure Hose
– This is the only hose with steel connectors crimped
on both ends .
– One end connects to the Control Valve (sealed with
teflon tape) .
– Other end connects to the top of the Pump (sealed
by O-Ring) .
– Because of the male/female ends, this hose only fits
the correct way .
Suction Hose
– This is the clear hose that connects the hydraulic
tank to the pump inlet .
– Both ends of the hose are secured with hose clamps
Oil Return Hose
– This hose returns the oil exiting the cylinder to the
tank .
– It has no connectors crimped onto it .
– The hose ends push over barbed fittings on the
control valve and the oil filter .
– Both ends are secured with hose clamps .
– Notice how the hose is placed through the retainer
ring on the beam . This holds the hose close to the
frame so it does not flop out beyond the wheels (and
catch on things while towing) .
