Gauge Wheel (Extra Equipment)
Mounting Holes have been provided for mounting
the Gauge Wheel to the Mainframe. Dual or Single
Wheels with laminated puncture proof or pneumatic
tires are optional. Assembly of the Hydraulic
Cylinder to the Gauge Wheel Beam must be in the
direction as shown in Figure Asm-0005. It is also
important to route the hydraulic Hose through the
Hose Retainers designed for this equipment.

Hydraulic System
The Hydraulic Cylinders are designed to be used in conjunction with your tractor's Hydraulic System. The
Cylinders and Hose are designed for maximum system pressure of 2500 PSI.
Keep Cylinders and Hose free from internal contamination. Never leave a disconnected
Hose end open. Use a sealant when attaching hydraulic Hose to Cylinder. Do not over
tighten fittings as this will break out the Cylinder Port Housings. When testing for a leaky
Hose or Connection use a piece of cardboard of wood to detect pinhole leaks - NOT YOUR
HAND. A high-pressure stream of escaping hydraulic fluid can penetrate skin and cause
serious infection or reaction, in addition to physical damage to internal flesh.
