Installation
Connecting Hydraulics-242 Actuator
Hydraulic connections to the Series 242 Actuator are made through a manifold
that connects the ports of each end cap. The manifold has hydraulic pressure,
return, and drain ports stamped P, R, and D, respectively. These ports are
connected to matching ports located on a hydraulic service manifold (HSM).
Note When the Series 242 Actuator is installed in a load unit, the hydraulic
connections are made through a manifold.
Do not use inferior quality hydraulic fluids.
Using fluids other than those specified by MTS may cause component or
system failure or both.
Use Mobil DTE 25 or Shell Tellus 46 hydraulic fluid only.
