SAFETYSETUPOPERATIONMAINTENANCE
Attaching the Leg Assembly
1. To use the Trencher, the Leg Assemblies must
be installed next to the Boom (36), and the
Wheels and Axles (50) moved to the rear.
2. Move the Trencher to the work area (See
Starting the Engine on page 10).
3. Start the engine and use the Boom Controls to curl
the Bucket toward the Boom without touching the
ground. Moving the Bucket As sembly (32) down
to the ground will raise the Frame Assembly (90).
Lift the Tires just off the ground and stop.
4. Ensure the controls will not be touched or bumped,
and that the Trencher will remain motionless. Never
place any part of your body under the Trencher.
5. With the Tires (52) off the ground, remove the
Wheel and Axle (50) to the operator’s left and
replace with the left side Extension Leg (19) and
Leg Assembly (24). Direct the Extension Leg so
it turns toward the Bucket end of the Trencher.
Secure with Lock Pin No. 2 (82). Repeat procedure
for the right side. Raise Bucket As sembly again to
lower onto Leg Assembly, and turn Engine off.
6. Using a jack and jack stands (not included), raise
up the engine end of the Trencher and disconnect
from the Towing Hitch. Slide the Wheels and
Axles (50) into the engine end of the Frame (90).
Secure each Axle with Lock Pin No. 2 (82).
Purging the Cylinder
1. Remove all Safety Locking Pins (15),
disengage the Safety Latch (41) and
loosen Hydraulic Tank Fill Plug (11).
2. Press forward on the Boom Swing Lever
(located on Control Panel (9) until the Boom
stops moving, then pull back on it until it moves
in the other direction. Center the Boom.
3. Press forward on the Main Boom Lever
until the Main Boom is fully raised. Then,
press Forward on the Boom Extension
Lever until the Boom is fully extended.
4. Press forward on the Bucket Lever until
the Bucket is fully extended. Pull back
on the Lever to retract it fully.
5. Pull back on the Boom Extension Lever
until the Boom is pulled back all the way.
Pull back on the Main Boom Lever until
the Main Boom is lowered completely.
6. Adjust the Boom back to its rest position
and replace all locking devices.

Fluid level and refill as necessary.
