5. Connecting the equipment

  5.2  Coupling the mono-couplings

The equipment is connected to the hydraulic pump via mono-coupling halves (male and 

female).

There are two short hoses on the side of the equipment: they are connected to the pump unit 

via two hoses. All hose assemblies are marked with a colour and have couplings to enable 

unmistakable connection.

dust protection caps

WARNING / CAUTION!

Before connecting the equipment you have to pay attention that
