Hydraulic Cylinder Priming
Hydraulic Cylinder must be filled with hydraulic oil before operating. Hydraulic cylinders and lines are filled by
holding the valve control levers in the extended position until the cylinder fully retracts and extends. Place
control levers in the float position and repeat process several more times to purge all air from system.
6.1 Connecting Snow Blower Hydraulic Lines to the Tractor
With the tractor shut down and secured in position, relieve hydraulic pressure from the tractor by moving the
control levers back and forth several times or placing the levers in the float position. Keep implement hydraulic
lines, hoses, quick couplers, and swivels free of contamination. Never leave a disconnected hose end open
and cap the tractor hydraulic outlet ports when not in use. If the tractors ports, Snow Blower ports and
hydraulic hose ends become contaminated, wipe clean with a rag before connecting.
OPS-SB-0005
Do not operate this Equipment with hydraulic oil or fuel leaking. Oil and
fuel are explosive and their presence could present a hazard. Do not
check for leaks with your hand! High-pressure oil streams from breaks in
the line could penetrate the skin and cause tissue damage including
gangrene. To check for a hose leak, SHUT the unit ENGINE OFF and
remove all hydraulic pressure. Wear oil impenetrable gloves, safety
glasses and use Cardboard to check for evidence of oil leaks. If you
suspect a leak, REMOVE the HOSE and have it tested at a Dealer. If oil
does penetrate the skin, have the injury treated immediately by a
physician knowledgeable and skilled in this procedure.

7. PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION AND SERVICE
Before each use, a pre-operation inspection and service of the implement and power unit must be performed.
This includes routine maintenance and scheduled lubrication, inspecting that all safety devices are equipped
and functional, and performing needed repairs. Do not operate the implement and power unit it the pre-
operation inspection reveals any condition affecting safe operation. Perform repairs and replacement of
damaged and missing parts as soon as noticed. By performing a thorough pre-operation inspection and
service, valuable down time and repair cost can be avoided.
OPS-UPI-0008
Never work under the Implement, the framework, or any lifted
component unless the Implement is securely supported or blocked up
to prevent sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause serious
injury or even death.
(SG-14)
Always disconnect the main PTO Driveline from the Tractor before performing service on
the Implement. Never work on the Implement with the tractor PTO driveline connected and
running. Rotating Parts,
Fans
or Drivelines could turn without warning and cause immedi-
ate entanglement, injury or death.
