Motor Hydraulic Rotator Installation
The Hydraulic Chute Rotator uses a hydraulic motor, controlled by the tractor hydraulics to
rotate the chute. The kit includes a safety shield, 2 pc 1/2-20 UNF bolts, hydraulic fittings, hoses
and tractor couplings. When installing the hydraulic elbows, turn them in
“no more than 4
rounds” then tighten the jam-nut to secure the elbow in the direction that you want the hoses to
go
as shown.
The relief valves are factory preset at 900 PSI.
Route the hoses and tie them to the top “A” frame support, away from moving parts, Ensure that
the hoses do not get too tight or rub on the frame when the blower is raised or lowered.
First set the motor with the bracket on top of the Chute Plate and then place the shield on top of
the motor bracket and secure with 1/2-20 UNF bolts
Please ensure that the gear does not jam or bind during the rotation of the chute. The bolt holes
are slightly oversize, allowing you to adjust the clearance somewhat. You should be able to
move the chute back and forth slightly.
