5.3 Connecting Mower Hydraulic Lines to the Tractor
With the tractor shut down and secured in position, relieve hydraulic pressure from the tractor by moving the
control levers back and forth several times or placing the levers in the float position. Keep mower hydraulic lines,
hoses, quick couplers, and swivels free of contamination. Never leave a disconnected hose end open and cap the
tractor hydraulic outlet ports when not in use. If the tractor ports,Flex-Arm ports, or mower hydraulic hose ends
become contaminated, wipe clean with a rag before connecting.
DANGER!
Do not operate this Equipment with hydraulic oil leaking. Oil is
expensive and its presence could present a hazard. Do not check for
leaks with your hand! Use a piece of heavy paper or cardboard. High-
pressure oil streams from breaks in the line could penetrate the skin
and cause tissue damage including gangrene. If oil does penetrate the
skin, have the injury treated immediately by a physician knowledge-
able and skilled in this procedure.
