FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WILL RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE,
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH.
To ensure satisfactory operation, the PULLMASTER Planematic drive must be properly installed. Observe the
following installation instructions:
1) The Planematic drive mounting structure must be strong enough to withstand operating torques without
excessive deflection.
2) The Planematic drive mounting surface and pilot bore must be machined.
3) Position the Planematic drive using a lifting eyebolt in the tapped hole provided.
4) Use eight 3/4 inch diameter mounting bolts (grade 5 or better). Evenly tighten bolts per BOLT TORQUE CHART.
5) Use only recommended circuit components and hydraulic hoses.
6) Plumb a separate circulation return line directly to tank. Keep the return line above the drive to maintain
housing oil level at all times.
7) Fill Planematic drive housing with oil through filler/drain port before operating. Units ported for external
circulation can be filled through circulation supply line.
IMPORTANT:
System brake housing back pressure must never exceed the limit allowed in the
SPECIFICATIONS section of this manual.
Before loading the Planematic drive, verify adequate brake circulation flow by checking at the
circulation return line port while driving in reverse direction.
