BLEEDING OF THE HYDRAULICS 1-7 4/8/04 1. Be sure tractor hydraulic reservoir is full. 2. With the marker(s) in field position, crack the hydraulic hose fitting(s) located at the base end of the cylinder(s). With your tractor at an idle speed, activate your tractor hydraulic valve until hydraulic oil seeps out around the hose ends. Tighten the hose end fittings and repeat this process with the hose end fitting(s) located at the rod end of the cylinder(s).
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 4/8/04 1-8 BREAKAWAY PROTECTION The marker arm (#2) is attached to the marker body (#1) with a 3/8" shear bolt. If excessive force is put on the marker during operation, the shear bolt will break, allowing the marker arm to swing away rather than cause damage to the marker. NOTE: The breakaway bolt is a 3/8"-16 x 2" long - grade 2 (G.P. # 802-266C). It is identified as a grade 2 by having no marks on the head.
1-9 TROUBLE SHOOTING 4/8/04 PROBLEM SOLUTION Hydraulic marker functioning improperly a. Check all hose fittings and connections for air and oil leaks. b. The chain on the folding marker should be slack when the marker is both fully extended and fully raised. c. Check tractor hydraulic oil level. d. Check all bolts and fasteners. e. If needle valve is plugged; open valve, cycle markers, and reset the needle valve. f. Double selector valve positioned for fold cylinders.
