Coupling the hydraulic hose lines

All hydraulic hoses are equipped with handles. The handles have colour markings with a code number or a code letter. The markings are assigned to the respective hydraulic functions of the pressure line of a tractor control unit. Stickers are applied on the machine for the markings, which illustrate the respective hydraulic functions.

The tractor control unit is used with different types of actuation, depending on the hydraulic function:

If there not enough available tractor control units, multiple machine functions 2 can be assigned to one tractor control unit with the Comfort hydraulic system. The function selection is activated either via the machine software or via ComfortClick 1.

  1. Depressurise the hydraulic system between the tractor and the machine using the tractor control unit.
  2. Clean the hydraulic plugs.
IMPORTANT
Implement damage due to insufficient hydraulic oil return flow
On the tractor side, only use lines that correspond to the nominal width of red T of the implement or larger for the pressureless hydraulic oil return flow.
Select short return paths.
Connect the pressureless hydraulic oil return flow to the intended coupling before all of the other hydraulic connections.

If the implement has a leakage oil line:

couple the leakage oil line in the intended coupling.
Install the supplied coupling sleeve on the pressureless hydraulic oil return.
  1. First couple the red T hydraulic hose line with the corresponding hydraulic socket on the tractor.
  2. Couple the red 1 hydraulic hose line with the corresponding hydraulic socket on the tractor.
  3. Couple the remaining hydraulic hose lines 1 with the hydraulic sockets of the tractor according to the marking 2.

The hydraulic plugs lock perceptibly.

  1. Route the hydraulic hose lines with sufficient freedom of movement and without chafing points.
  2. To warm up the hydraulic oil for optimal regulation of the hydraulic system:

    Run the fan for about 5 minutes at 2.5001/min.
