Hydraulic hoses
Hydraulic hoses age without showing externally visible signs. We
therefore recommend replacing the hydraulic hoses every six years.
Fold the machine into its work position.
Depressurise the system.
Switch off the tractor.
Remove the ignition key.
Disconnect the hydraulic hoses.
Replace hydraulic hoses.
Hydraulic system at zero pressure
Work must only be performed on the hydraulic system if the tractor
and machine hydraulic system is at zero pressure. A pressurised
hydraulic system can trigger unpredictable movements of the
machine and can cause serious damage to the machine and
personal injury. Serious or fatal injury may be caused as a result.
Exercise caution when welding
Do not perform any welding work in the vicinity of the hydraulic
hoses. Hydraulic oil can catch fire very easily.
Clean hydraulic system
Close or disconnect the quick-release couplings with great care.
Remove any dirt or air which has entered the hydraulic system.
The hydraulic system may otherwise be seriously damaged.
Material damage or personal injury may be caused as a result.
Collect escaping oil
Escaping oil must be collected and disposed of in accordance with
national regulations. Otherwise, damage to the environment may
be caused as a result.
