1.8.4 Hydraulic system
1. Warning: The hydraulic system is under high pressure.
2. Check the hydraulic hose pipes regularly and replace them when they are damaged or become
old. The replacement hose pipes must correspond to the technical requirements of the equipment
manufacturer.
3. Lower equipment and units before commencing work on the hydraulic system. First depressurize the
system and then switch off the engine (Pressure gauge display, 0 bar).
4. Use appropriate aids when searching for leaks. Be aware of the risk of injury.
5. The prescribed connection of hydraulic hoses is to observed when connecting hydraulic cylinders.
When connecting the hydraulic hoses to the tractor hydraulic system, ensure that the hydraulic
system is depressurized both at the tractor and at the equipment. Only connect up compatible
hydraulic fittings!
6. Mark the coupling sleeves and plugs at hydraulic function connections between the tractor and
equipment to avoid misconnections. If the connections are mixed up, the functions of the components
are reversed (e.g. raising, lowering). Be aware of the risk of accidents.
