Platform Leveling Master Cylinder
The platform leveling master cylinder acts as a
pump for the slave cylinder. It is part of the
closed-loop hydraulic circuit that keeps the platform
level through the entire range of primary boom
motion. The platform leveling master cylinder is
located inside the upper mid-pivot at the pivot end
of the primary boom.
How to Remove the Platform

Bodily injury hazard. This
procedure requires specific repair

component damage. Dealer
service is strongly recommended.
Note: When removing a hose assembly or fitting,
the O-ring (if equipped) on the fitting and/or hose
end must be replaced. All connections must be
