The hydraulic system is not filled with oil
and should be purged of air before transport-
ing and field operations. Carefully hitch the
VT Plus to the tractor and connect the hy-
draulic lift hoses. Check to make sure the
tractor hydraulic reservoir is full of the manu-
facturer's recommended oil. Slowly raise the
machine, and continue to hold the hydraulic
lever until all lift cylinders are fully extended.
With all cylinders fully extended remove the
1-3/8 X 10 transport lockouts (See Figure
4-3). Store transport lockouts as shown in
Figure 4-4. Lower and raise the unit to ver-
ify that all cylinders are working simulta-
neously throughout the stroke. If the cylin-
ders are not working evenly or together, fully
extend the lift cylinders and continue to hold
the lever to purge any remaining air. Do not
loosen any hoses or fittings. Recheck tractor
reservoir to make sure it is within operating
limits.

Always fully extend the cylinders and
hold the lever to ensure the cylinders are
rephased before starting any field operation.
This will keep all cylinders in time and frame
sections level when operating.
