meter oil flow. The knob controls flow from 4 to 102

L/MIN (1 to 27 GPM). Turn the knob so the higher

vertical decal stripe, 2, is visible to increase the rate

of oil flow. Turn the knob so the lower vertical decal

stripe, 3, is visible to decrease the rate of oil flow.

WARNING

Before connecting or disconnecting hydraulic

hoses at the remote cylinders, relieve the

pressure in the circuit by first starting the engine

and then move the control switches fully forward

to the “float” position. Then stop the engine.

Make sure no one will be injured by moving

equipment when relieving pressure in the

system. Before disconnecting cylinders or

equipment, make sure the equipment or imple-

ment is supported securely.
Never work under equipment supported by a

hydraulic device because it may drop if the

control is actuated (even with the engine

stopped) or in the event of hose failure, etc.

always use a secure support for equipment

which must be serviced while in the raised

position. Make sure that oil contained within the

remote cylinders is clean and is of the correct

grade.
