Hydraulic Hose Hookup
Great Plains hydraulic hoses are color coded to help you
hookup hoses to your tractor outlets. Hoses that go to the same
remote valve are marked with the same color.
High Pressure Fluid Hazard:
Shut down tractor before making hydraulic connections.
Only trained personnel should work on system hydraulics!
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to
penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by
relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines. 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 assistance from a physician familiar
with this type of injury.
To distinguish hoses on the same hydraulic circuit, refer to
handle symbols.
•
The hose with an extended-cylinder symbol feeds a
cylinder base end.
•
The hose with a retracted-cylinder symbol feeds a cylinder
rod end.
Secure hoses and cables so that they have sufficient slack for
hitch movements, but cannot get caught between moving parts
of tractor, implement or hitch. Failure to safely route and secure
hoses and cables could result in damage requiring component
repair/replacement, and lost field time.
Clean all hydraulic couplings and hook hoses to tractor.
Brake Hook-up (Option)
Two TCN5107-5313 braking (trailer braking) systems are
available:
•
Dual-line air system (
) with wheel chocks
) for parking and
•
Single-line hydraulic (
) with wheel chocks
In both systems, the tractor’s trailer brake remote port(s)
operate a hydraulic slave cylinder on the Turbo-Chisel.
Tractor trailer braking systems are normally integrated with
the tractor brakes, and operate the trailer brakes when tractor
brakes are used during tractor movement.
The trailer braking system may or may not be integrated with
the tractor parking brake system.
