Lane Shark LS-3
COMPONENTS
Hydraulic Hoses
To ensure your safety and that no harm is caused the components
of your Lane Shark or your tractor, it is
CRUCIAL
that the hydraulic hose
system is installed correctly. You
CAN NOT
return to the valve powering your
Lane Shark. You
MUST
return to the
SUMP
.
ONLY
pressure is used from the
auxiliary hydraulics. If you fail to follow these instructions
ANY
warranty
on your Lane Shark will be voided. Follow these steps at all times while
operating the Lane Shark. Failure to follow these instructions could result in
serious injury or death.
Plumbing
1. With the Lane Shark attached measure your tractor to determine approximate
length of hoses (hose lengths will di
ff
er per tractor). To keep from reversing
the hydraulic hoses, it is recommended that you use male and female quick
disconnect
fi
ttings to attach the hydraulic hoses from your Lane Shark to the
tractor. (Shown in
fi
gure A)
2. To
fi
nd the proper hydraulic hose length from the Lane Shark to your tractor you
must position the Lane Shark in its o
ff
set position (see pg. 29 for position change
instructions) and then angle the loader arm of the tractor to approximately -35
degrees. The length should be approximately 7-1/2 feet.
3. Attach pressure hose to one side of your tractors auxiliary hydraulics.
4. Route the pressure hose along the tractor until you have reached the front of you
tractors boom.
5. For the return hose, we recommend using a “T”
fi
tting on the tractors loader
controls to return to sump. (Shown in
fi
gure B)
6. Attach the return hose to the “T”
fi
tting installed on the tractors loader controls.
7. Route the return hose along the tractor until you have reached the front of you
tractors boom.
8. Attach one pressure (02) and one return hose (03) onto your Lane Shark using
the two #8 ORB (O-ring Boss) inlets on your Lane Shark’s rotary motor. (Shown
on page 15)
9. Attach the hydraulic hoses on your Lane Shark to the hydraulic hoses on the
tractor using quick disconnect
fi
ttings. (Shown in
fi
gure A)
10. Secure all hoses to tractor.
11. Once connected the air must be bled out of the hydraulic hoses. To do this you
must brie
fl
y engage the hydraulics until the motor on the Lane Shark begins to
rotate.
12. Check hydraulic
fl
uid and
fi
ll to operating level per tractor speci
fi
cations.
