Hydraulic Hose Hookup
High Pressure Fluid Hazard:
Only trained personnel
should work on system hydraulics!
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to
penetrate the skin, causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard
by relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines.
Use a piece of paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to
check for leaks. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or
goggles when working with hydraulic systems. If an accident
occurs, seek immediate medical attention from a physician
familiar with this type of injury.
Current Style Color-Coded Hose Handles
Great Plains hydraulic hoses have color coded handle
grips to help you hook up hoses to your tractor outlets.
Hoses that go to the same remote valve are marked
with the same color.
To distinguish hoses on the same hydraulic circuit, refer
to the symbol molded into the handle grip. Hoses with
an extended-cylinder symbol feed cylinder base ends.
Hoses with a retracted-cylinder symbol feed cylinder
rod ends.
Older Style Hoses with Color Ties
Hoses that go to the same remote valve are marked with
the same color tie.
To distinguish hoses on the same hydraulic circuit, refer
to plastic hose holder. Hose under extended-cylinder
symbol feeds cylinder base ends. Hose under retracted-
cylinder symbol feeds cylinder rod ends.
