ASSEMBLY
Hydraulic System Installation:
Escaping fluid under pressure can be nearly
invisible and have enough force to penetrate the
skin causing serious injury. Use a piece of
cardboard, rather than hands, to search for
suspected leaks. Wear protective gloves & safety
glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic
systems.
Do not raise the machine without the use of
hydraulics. This would introduce air into the
hydraulic cylinder. When the transport pin is
removed the frame would lower rapidly possibly
causing injury.
Tightening Procedure For JIC Swivel
Female Nuts
1. Check the flare and seat for defects.
2. Lubricate the connection.
3. Install the hoses without twists.
4. Hand tighten until connection bottoms.
5. Using 2 wrenches to prevent twisting, rotate the
swivel nut 1/3 turn.
6. For reassembly, follow the same procedure but
tighten only 1/6 turn.
Tightening Procedure For Swivel
O-ring Fittings
1. Lubricate o-ring and install the fitting until the metal
washer which backs up the o-ring contacts the face
of the boss.
2. Then orient the fitting by turning counterclockwise up
to 1 turn.
3. Tighten the lock nut using 50-60 foot pounds of
torque.

WARNING
CAUTION
Pulverizer with lift Hydraulic Fluid Capacity = 0.75
gallon
1. Install 90 Deg ORB x Male JIC Elbow Fitting into
cylinder rod end port and Restrictor into the cylinder
base port. Install 90 Deg JIC x Female JIC Swivel
Elbow Fitting onto Restrictor. See Figure 2-7.
2. Attach longer hose to Cylinder rod end Elbow Fitting
and the shorter hose to Cylinder base end Elbow
Fitting. Run hoses along the frame and down the
drawbar under the manual canister mount through
the hose loop and hose support towards the tractor.
3. Turn the O-Ring end of each Male ORB x Male JIC
Adapter Fitting into each Coupler. Install Adapter into
the end of each hose.
4. Secure hoses with tie straps.
5. Hook tractor to implement.
6. Ensure the Transport Lock Pin is in the storage
location on the frame. See Figure 3-1. Charge
Hydraulic system.
7. Bleed the air from the hydraulic system before
moving the machine. Bleed the air from the transport
system first. This can be done by partially raising and
lowering the machine slowly 5 or 6 times. Gradually
increase the length of stroke until the last two cycles
are the full stroke on the cylinder.
