WING SECTION HYDRAULIC CYLINDER ATTACHMENT
Mount the 14" stroke Hydraulic Cylinder butt clevis to the upright lugs on the Center Section and the rod end to
lugs on wing. Make sure the ports of the Hydraulic Cylinder are facing upwards. Keep the ports capped until the
hoses are attached to the tractor and are ready to attach to the cylinder ports. Make certain that the Restrictor ,(A)
in FIGURE 9, is installed properly on the gland end of the Hydraulic Cylinders to prevent fast lowering of the wings.
Install the Transport Bars to retain the Wing Sections in the upright position for transport on roads and highways.
When in transport keep the Center Section as low to the ground as possible to increase stability but high enough
to prevent the Skid Shoes from dragging.
