Connecting/disconnecting hydraulic lines

Keep the hydraulic lines such that they can man‐
age all movements when cornering etc. without
tensioning, kinking or rubbing. Before connecting
the hydraulic lines, make sure that their threaded
couplings are compatible with the sockets on the
towing vehicle. Do not use any tools when con‐
necting the hydraulic lines and do not climb on
any part of the vehicle.
Before coupling and decoupling the hydraulic
lines, the hydraulic system of the tractor/semi‐
trailer combination must be depressurised and
the trailer's tipper body should be fully lowered.
The hydraulic system of the tractor/semitrailer
combination is only depressurised if the control
lever in the cab is in the centre position (STOP)
and the power take-off is disengaged. A few
drops of hydraulic fluid may escape when sepa‐
rating the hydraulic connections. Observe the
national work safety and accident prevention reg‐
ulations as well as the environmental protection
regulations.
