Connecting the Drill to the Tractor
HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS
The following label can be found located on the front of the drill seed hopper. These labels specify the
corresponding hydraulic connections and their appropriate colour coding.
The return hose must be
connected before any hydraulic services are operated.
IMPORTANT
THE HYDRAULIC FREE FLOW SERVICE MUST BE
PLUGGED IN PRIOR TO THE DRILL BEING OPERATED
FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE WHICH IS
NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.
Connect the hydraulic hoses to the tractor spools in their relevant pairs. The
1
inch ISO female coupling
(freeflow return) with 18L male thread supplied with your drill MUST be connected to the rear of the
tractor if necessary. Consult your tractors operators manual for correct freeflow connection on the rear
of the tractor (
max 5 bar
). The free flow return pipe cannot just be inserted into the filler cap as the oil
cannot return to the pump sufficiently quickly on many tractors.
Do not change the
1
inch ISO on the free flow return to a difference size as this could cause damage to the
fan motor. The fan free flow return cannot be connected to the tractor ISO.
Incase of difficulty knowing the correct connections available on the rear of your
tractor consult your tractor operators manual or Claydon dealer immediately
for assistance. Failure to connect tractor to drill correctly can result in serious
damage to hydraulic components on both drill and tractor.
