Reel
Split-Reel Lift Hydraulic Circuit
Pressure from the combine feeds the barrel end of the left cylinder. As the barrel rises, oil on
the bottom side of the piston is forced out of the rod end port, into the rod end port on the
center cylinder. The cylinder piston rises and oil from barrel end port of center cylinder is
forced out into the barrel end of right cylinder. As the right cylinder piston rises, oil is forced
out of the rod end port into the reel return line, and back to the combine hydraulic reservoir.
To lower the reel, a check valve assembly located on the combine opens to allow oil to free
flow in reverse due to the weight at the reel.
Solid Reel Hydraulic Circuit
Pressure from the combine feeds the barrel end of the left-hand cylinder. As the cylinder
barrel rises, oil below the piston is displaced. The volume of the rod on the left cylinder
matches the volume of the barrel on the right cylinder. The displaced oil causes the right
cylinder to raise. This cylinder has a vent to bleed air from the system.
