Hydraulic Hose Hookup
Great Plains hydraulic hoses are color coded to
help you hookup hoses to your tractor outlets.
Hoses that go to the same remote valve are
marked with the same color.
Refer to Figure 7
To distinguish hoses on the same hydraulic circuit,
refer to plastic hose holder. Hose under extended-
cylinder symbol feeds cylinder base ends. Hose
under retracted-cylinder symbol feeds cylinder
rod ends.
Lift Assist
Hydraulics for the optional lift assist can be
plumbed three different ways.
• Tractor remote valve drives lift assist alone
• Tractor remote valve drives lift assist and
three-point hitch
• Tractor hydraulic circuit for three-point hitch
drives lift assist and three-point hitch
To operate the lift assist on its on remote valve,
plug hydraulic hoses into valve outlets.
To plumb together the lift-assist and three-point
hydraulics, contact your tractor dealer for specific
instructions.
IMPORTANT: Before plumbing the lift assist
into your tractor three-point circuit, contact
your tractor dealer for detailed instructions.
Failure to properly plumb the hydraulics can
cause tractor damage.
