High Pressure Fluid Hazard:
Shut down tractor before making hydraulic connections.
Only trained personnel should work with system hydraulics.
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to
penetrate the skin causing serious injury. If an accident
occurs, seek immediate medical assistance from a physician
familiar with this type of injury.
Use paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to check for
leaks. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles
when working with hydraulic systems.
Refer to Figure 6
To distinguish hoses on the same hydraulic circuit, refer
to hose label.
•
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, turbo max 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.
