BLEEDING REMOTE CYLINDERS

When connecting a cylinder with trapped air (i.e.,

a new cylinder, one that has been out of service,

or one that has had the hoses disconnected), it

will be necessary to bleed the cylinder to remove

the air.

With the hoses connected to the remote control

valve couplers at the rear of the tractor, position

the cylinder with the hose end uppermost and

extend and retract the cylinder seven or eight

times using the remote control valve operating

lever. Check the hydraulic tank oil level before

and after operating the remote cylinder.

OPERATING

CONTINUOUS

FLOW

HYDRAULIC EQUIPMENT

Continuous flow hydraulic equipment (i.e.,

hydraulic motors) should be connected to the

right-side (color-code gray) remote control valve

couplers with the pressure hose connected to

the upper coupler and the return hose connected

to the lower coupler. These are indicated by a

hydraulic motor symbol at the couplers with

counterclockwise rotation on the upper coupler

and clockwise rotation shown on the lower

coupler.

NOTE: There is a “zero return” line, 1,

installed next to the implement valve on the

right-hand side. This line runs directly back

to the hydraulic reservoir and is intended to

be used as a hydraulic motor case drain line.
