MODEL SG-40 HYDRAULICS
HYDRAULICS
Do not go near hydraulic leaks. High pressure
oil easily punctures skin causing serious injury,
­gangrene,­ or­ death.­Avoid­ burns­ from­ fl­uid.­ Hot­
fl­uid­under­pressure­can­cause­severe­burns.­Do­
not­ use­ fi­ngers­ or­ skin­ to­ check­ for­ leaks.­ Lower­
load or relieve hydraulic pressure before loosening
fi­ttings.­ Relieve­ all­ pressure­ in­ the­ system­ before­
disconnecting the lines, hoses, or performing other
work.­Use­a­piece­of­­cardboard­to­fi­nd­leaks.­Never­
use your bare hands. Allow system to cool down to
ambient temperature before opening any coolant or
hydraulic oil system.
Some equipment and components including
fluid engagement clutches (PTO’s) have their
own lubrication requirements. Consult their
manufacturer’s manual for that information.
When returning hydraulic components for
warranty make sure to box up all warranted
parts to avoid additional damage while shipping.
Do not disassemble any hydraulic components
which are to be warrantied. Anything which has
been disassembled or tampered with will not be
warrantied. Items being returned must be clean. All
hydraulic components must have all hosing ports
plugged. Failure to plug ports will allow debris to
enter components which will void warranty.
After the initial start-up of the machine and after
any­replacement­of­­hydraulic­components,­fi­ttings­
and hoses must be re-checked for leaks and
clearances.
It is very important after you have operated a new
machine for approximately an hour to shut down the
machine­and­recheck­all­hydraulic­fi­ttings.­Relieve­all­
pressure and retighten as needed.
Do not operate this machine unless all hydraulic
control devices operate properly. They must function,
shift and position smoothly and accurately at all
times. Faulty controls can cause personal injury.
In cold weather situations let your hydraulic system
idle for approximately 15 minutes to allow the system
to warm up to operating temperature.

• If the machine’s hydraulic system is kept clean and
the hydraulic pressures are not increased beyond the
specifi­ed­pressure,­the­maximum­use­and­life­should­
be received from the hydraulic system.
• If a problem is encountered, it will more than likely
be located in the relief valve or something as simple
as­belts­or­clutch­slipping,­check­these­fi­rst.
• Do­not­close­the­hydraulic­shut-off­­valve­for­more­
than­3­to­4­seconds.­Hydraulic­shut-off­­valve­handle­
must be completely turned on (in line with hose) at all
times unless checking hydraulic pressure. Pressure
gauge should be safely stored and installed only
when checking pressure. Follow above instructions or
this will cause unwarranted damage to the hydraulic
components.
• Never close the ball valves on the hydraulic
tank suction ports (if equipped) while the machine
is running, this will ruin the hydraulic pump and
components.
• Avoid hydraulic pump cavitation. Low oil levels
or cold start-ups will cause the hydraulic pump to
cavitate. Cavitation will ruin the pump and possibly
the entire hydraulic system. Cavitation only has to
happen once. This will start the pump on its way to
ruin. Allow hydraulic system to turn slowly for several
minutes in cold weather in order for hydraulic system
to warm up. Cavitation is not covered under warranty.
• Keep hydraulic oil clean. Dirty oil will cause
excessive wear and loss of hydraulic power.
• Replace­ the­ hydraulic­ oil­ fi­lter(s)­ after­ fi­rst­ 10­
hours and with each 400 hours of operation or 3
months.
• Replace hydraulic oil & suction screen(s) at least
once­yearly.­This­is­also­a­very­good­time­to­fl­ush­and­
clean the tank. Replace hydraulic oil immediately if
it is contaminated or looks “milky”. See “Hydraulic
Oil Requirements”.
If the simple rules mentioned below are followed, the hydraulic components will last for years:
Before attempting any type of maintenance,
disengage clutch or cutter wheel engagement, wait
for the cutter wheel to come to a complete stop, turn
off­­engine,­remove­the­ignition­key,­make­sure­the­
ignition key is in your possession, disconnect the
battery, and install the cutter wheel lock pin.
