Suspension Limits
Care must be taken to travel where the suspension system will not be pushed beyond its limits . Each tire can move up or down
7” (17 .8 cm) from the center position . Do not exceed these limits or damage to the unit will occur . Promote safe operation and
do not go through any deep ditches, over sharp knolls, or grades greater than 9
°
(15% or 12-2 pitch) .
Braking System
The hydraulic system on some tractors keep a small amount of pressure in the hydraulic lines even when the control lever is
set to the “Float” position . The master cylinder on this machine has a pressure releasing spring which is used to counteract
this hydraulic pressure coming from the tractor .
The master cylinder of the braking system is designed to create a vacuum in the hydraulic lines leading to the brake calipers .
When the brakes are fully released, the vacuum created pulls on the pistons of the calipers causing them to fully retract which
disengages the brakes on the machine . However, for this to happen, the master cylinder must never be full of hydraulic fluid
when braking .
Brake Operation
Tractors with a “Closed Center” or “Open Center” hydraulic circuit:
1 . To apply the brakes, the lever must be pulled fully backward .
2 . To release the brakes, the lever must be pushed fully forward to the “Float” position .
Brake Fluid Level Check
1 . Apply brakes .
2 . Measure the compression of the pressure release spring .
3 . If the pressure release spring is compressed to 8” (20 .3 cm) or less, hydraulic fluid must be added to the braking
system (See “Brake System” on Page 35) .
Vacuum Pump
Positioning the top lever to “Vacuum” (handle pointing to “1”) will allow the machine to suction the manure from the pit/storage
tank into the unit .
Positioning the top lever to “Pressure” (handle pointed to “2”) pressurizes the tank on the unit to discharge the manure . Not all
vacuum tanks will have the pressure side of the pump connected .
Boom Control System
The boom control switch panel connects to the hydraulic manifold via a 37-pin connector (Figure 20) .
The boom control switch panel controls the boom swing and each extension of the boom . It also controls the pressure relief
valve on the boom, the hydraulic hatch on top of the tank, and the fold-up wings of an attached injector (Figure 21) .
Figure 22 identifies each area of the unit the switch panel controls .
The Wings switch controls the hydraulics to the fold out extensions on the injector (if equipped) .
OPERATION
DANGER
DO NOT move this machine through deep ditches, over
sharp knolls, or grades greater than 9° (15% or 12-2
pitch).
