specifications.

with your equipment.
7) Verify for adequate tightness of all fastening
devices. Refer to torque chart on page 25.
8) Operate the hydraulic system a few times, raising

trapped air in the system. Then check the oil level
in the tractor's hydraulic oil reservoir.

usually installed in a diagonal configuration to
prevent tipping during handling. They must be
installed on the side you wish to dump the load.

ration when using your Dump Trailer.
