ASSEMBLY
DRAFT BEAM MOUNTING
Pull the inboard cylinder piston rod down to the extreme extended position. Slide
the draft beam under the cylinder, and align clevis hole with draft beam hole nearest
to the tractor. Install pin and secure with R-clips.
Using inboard cylinder as a pivot point, slide draft beam under tractor and install
draft beam pin. Align hole in draft beam pin with holes in main frame boss and install
cap-screw, lock-washer and hex nut.
Install the fittings in the butt end of the outboard cylinder, as shown in the parts
section. These should be positioned to face the rod end of the cylinder. Next,
install the O-ring breather in the rod end of the cylinder.
Install the outboard cylinder in the hole in the draft beam as shown in the
diagram on the previous page. Install the pin into the draft beam and cylinder and
secure with R-clips.
DECK / MOTOR FEEDLINE
Install the hose with the 90 degree #20 flange on one end between the front side of
the motor to the bottom of the solenoid valve. Secure to motor with #20 flange kit.
Install the #20 flange adapter block to the back side of the motor and install swivel
fittings. Install the hose from the fittings on the back of the motor to the top of the
solenoid valve. Install split hoses around hydraulic hoses where they contact the
edge of the head, or any other edges that may rub hoses.
Be sure that all grease zerks are installed in the draft beam pin bosses. Grease
all areas of the draft beam according to the instructions in the maintenance section.
Re-check all fittings for tightness and be sure teflon tape has been used at all
connections.
Fill hydraulic tank with fluid as recommended in the maintenance section. BE
SURE TO OPEN THE BALL VALVES. Start the tractor and operate the inboard
cylinder through the entire stroke and the outboard cylinder through the bottom ¾
stroke repeatedly to clear the lines of air. DO NOT run outboard cylinder out to
full stroke until turnbuckle has been adjusted!
Check for oil leaks at all fittings and connections using a piece of paper or cardboard.
DO NOT USE HANDS TO CHECK FOR FLUID LEAKS!
Raise the tree point hitch and check the tractor internal hydraulics, fill to proper
level if needed.
