Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic oper-
ation and allows loads or equipment components
to drop unexpectedly. When connecting equipment
or hoses or performing any hydraulic maintenance,
purge any air in hydraulic system by operating all
hydraulic functions several times. Do this before
putting into service or allowing anyone to
approach the equipment.
Attach the mower hydraulic hose to the tractor port.
Hydraulic quick coupler is not supplied.
NOTE: The mower hydraulic system should have been
filled at the factory. Always assume it is empty. Fully
purge air and fill the hydraulic system by raising and
lowering wings several times while hooked to a tractor
hydraulic supply. Keep all personnel away while raising
and lowering.
