OPERATION Quick Coupler Operation Raise (Quick Coupler “A” Position) This is the position which will lift the bed, rear hitch attachment or apply pressure to quick coupler ”A”. This also allows return oil from Quick coupler ”B” to flow back into the valve and then out to the reservoir. This is a momentary position and when the lever is released it spring returns to the center off position. Connection Important Clean dirt from quick couplers before connecting.
PAGE 3
Important Check hydraulic oil level after installation of attachment. Check operation of attachment by cycling attachment several times to purge air from system, then recheck hydraulic oil level. Attachment cylinder will slightly affect transaxle oil level. Operation of vehicle with low oil level can damage pump, remote hydraulics, power steering and vehicle transaxle. Caution Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate skin and do serious damage.

Off Position Important If used with a hydraulic cylinder, holding the control lever in the lower position causes the oil flow to go over a relief valve which can damage the hydraulic system. This is the normal position for the control valve when it is not being used. This position allows the oil leaving the dump valve to flow through the remote hydraulic valve to the power steering circuit.

Trouble Shooting • Difficulty in connecting or disconnecting quick couplers. • Pressure not relieved (Quick coupler under pressure). • Engine running. • Remote hydraulic valve not placed in float. • Power steering hard. • Remote valve not in neutral or float position. • Remote hydraulic valve linkage out of adjustment. • Hydraulic oil level low. • Hydraulic oil hot. • Hydraulic leaks. • Fittings loose. • Fitting missing o–ring. • Attachment does not function. • Quick couplers not fully engaged.
