CHARGING THE CIRCUIT
On a concrete pad or hard ground, do not retract cylinders all the way while tongue is hitched to tractor,
this could result in bending the tractor drawbar upwards.
**Connect only the pins on the barrel ends of the cylinders until the circuit has been charged.**
2. Prop cylinders with blocks of wood, be sure that all cylinders can extend completely without striking anything.
3. Connect hoses to tractor.
4. Extend cylinders and hold lever for 2-3 minutes. This will purge the air from the circuit. (The lift cylinders have
a port that allows oil to pass when completely extended.)
5. The circuit is now free from air. Install Rod end Pins. Connect tongue telescope.
Whenever air could have entered the cylinders, repeat above steps to purge circuit.
