Open centre hydraulics (optional)

The open centre hydraulics block is necessary if the tractor uses open
centre hydraulics and/or load sensing.
The valves (1) and (2) is factory set for open centre hydraulics, but if
closed centre hydraulics is used (also in combination with load sensing),
screw in the valve (clockwise).
Certain tractor models are able to use Load Sensing without connecting
an external sensing line. But if optimal sensing control pressure cannot
be obtained, an external sensing line needs to be connected (3). Please
consult your tractor dealer for correct setup and correct connection.

WARNING! Before operating the hydraulics, the valve should be
set according to the specific tractor model. If you are unsure of
the type of hydraulic system in your tractor, please contact your
tractor dealer.
