Hydraulic Hose Hookup
High Pressure Fluid Hazard:
Relieve pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines.
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to
penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Use a piece of paper
or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to check for leaks. Wear
protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working
with hydraulic systems. If an accident occurs, seek immediate
medical attention from a physician familiar with this type of
injury.
Great Plains hydraulic hoses have color coded handle
grips to help you hookup hoses to your tractor outlets.
Hoses that go to the same remote valve are marked with
the same color.
Color Coded Hose Handles
To distinguish hoses on the same hydraulic circuit, refer
to the symbol molded into the handle grip. Hoses with an
extended-cylinder symbol feed cylinder base ends.
Hoses with a retracted-cylinder symbol feed cylinder rod
ends.
Connect fold hoses to suitable tractor remote valves.
Electrical Hookup
Plug implement electrical lead in tractor seven-pin
connector. If your tractor is not equipped with a seven-pin
connector, contact your dealer for installation.
Plug in any optional connectors or aftermarket
connectors, such as an implement-mounted GPS
receiver. For future reference, note any optional
connectors on this checklist.
