Oil
: See
“hydraulic recommendations”.
Pump
: All gear pumps regardless of make or model should be "run in" as per manufacturer's
recommendations before connecting to the trailer for the first time.
Return filter
: Filter should be 10 to 30 micron on the return line. Filter should be mounted as close to the
reservoir as possible. Return filter elements should be changed after 6 hours initially and every 6 months
thereafter.
Hydraulic Reservoir
: Should hold approximately 1 liter [1 gallon] of oil for every liter [gallon] per minute
of pump output. (110 l/min [29 gpm] pump = minimum 110 liter [29 gal] reservoir)
Suction line
: Hydraulic suction line with a 50 mm [2"] inside diameter, not more than 1500 mm [5'] long
Pressure line
: All pressure lines should be minimum diameter of 20x2 mm [3/4”]
Return line
: all hoses and lines should be a minimum diameter of 25x2 mm [1”]
Pressure relief valve
: Must be pilot operated type, and sized correctly for the system. See wet kit
specification.
Hydraulic recommendations
1. Use ISO 22 grade oil if the minimum operating temperature is between -25 and 0 °C [-13 and 32
°F].
2. Use ISO 32 grade oil if the minimum operating temperature is between -15 and 30 °C [5 and 86 °F].
3. Use ISO 46 grade oil if the operating temperature range is between 15 and 40 °C [59 and 104 °F].
Note: The suggested maximum viscosity value for start-up is 1000 cSt.
Temperature below -25 [-13 °F] degree Celsius
Use the following warm up procedure in temperatures below -25 degrees Celsius [-13°F]:
1. Set the operation handle for unload (1)
– 0 – load (2) in the middle 0-position
2. Circulate the oil for a few minutes to preheat it and lower its viscosity.

a quick star
t-
up check should be made
1.
Hydraulic
: is your entire system plumbed to the plumbing diagram?
2. *
Pump
:
Will it pump the advised flow at the maximum pressure according to the system?
3. *
Re

6.
Hoses
: Is the pressure line on the trailer attached to the pressure l

r
and the return
line on the trailer attached to the return line on the tractor?
7.
Quick Disconnects
: are these suitable and connected the right way?
8.

: Operation handle unload (1) - 0 - load (2) in position 0?
*If the information about your pump and relief valve is not known
,
a pressure/flow check will help
determine this information. Be sure that your entire wet kit system meets the requ
