SECTION 2 – HYDRAULIC SET-UP (32’-44’)
1. Hydraulic hoses and fittings for depth control cylinders can be found on following drawing.
– Rephasing cylinders require that oil from the rod end of first cylinder goes to base end of
second cylinder and so forth. Cylinders will not operate properly unless they are connected
correctly.
– 40’ and larger models require extension hoses and unions, shown on drawing below.
2. Special attention should be paid to routing of hydraulic hoses. Page 2-50 shows layout of hoses
for depth control cylinders.
A. It is best to start by routing the hose for the 6 x 10” cylinder. Make sure there is 60” of hose
ahead of hose holder. This is usually enough hose for safe and easy hook-up to tractor.
B. Route hose along hitch frame. Use plastic clamps provided. Do not tighten until routing is
complete.
– On hitch, and a portion of main frame, 2 clamps are placed on each bolt.
– Clamps are made to have the round surface point towards the surface that you are
mounting to. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
C. Leave plenty of slack by hitch pivot.
– The hitch pivot point will move up and down from transport position to field position. Hoses
must be loose enough to allow a full range of travel.
D. Continue to route hose for 6 x 10” cylinder along center section of chisel plow.
– Bolts welded to frame will help show correct routing.
– Route hose along top of frame by transport lock. Use nylon ties to hold hose in place once
all hoses have been routed.
E. Use care when stringing hose between center section and wing.
– Leave plenty of slack between points 1 and 2 (Page 2-50) as wing pivots up and
down during field operation. Hose must not stretch tight.
F. Hose must be routed so it will not be pinched when wing is folded into transport.
– Pull hose tight between points 2 and 3. This will prevent hose from contacting
transport lock.
G. On 40’ and larger models, a 3/4 x 60” hose is added to the 588” hose with a union.
– Two more bolt locations will guide routing along frame on the larger model.
H. Route hose up cylinder attach to 6 x 10” cylinder.
