Hydraulic systems

General info

Ensure that snap couplers are clean before connection!
After having operated the boom and the system has been filled with oil, check tractor's hydraulic oil level and top up if
necessary.
€
DANGER! Test of the hydraulic system should be done very cautiously. There may be air trapped in the system which
can cause violent movements of the boom.
€
DANGER! Hydraulic leaks: Never use your fingers to locate a leakage in any part of the hydraulic system. Due to high
pressure, hydraulic oil may penetrate the skin.
±
WARNING! Due to the variation in tractor hydraulic systems and capacities, care should be exercised when initially
operating the sprayer hydraulic cylinders. It is advisable to adjust the hydraulic flow control down to the minimum
rate before operating the system. Adjust/increase the flow control after the system is bled of any air, if necessary.

Requirements - tractor (SPB-HY)

Connection requirements are:
• One single acting hydraulic outlet for the lift function of the spray boom.
• One double acting hydraulic outlet for the folding function of the sprayer.
Ensure that snap couplers are clean before connection!
The hydraulic system requires an oil flow of approximately 0.8 GPM (3 liters) and a minimum pressure of 1,950 PSI (130 bar).

Requirements - tractor (SPB-HV)

Connection requirements are:
• One double acting hydraulic outlet for the lift and folding function of the sprayer.
The hydraulic hoses are marked with colored tie straps to indicate direction of oil flow. Red tie strap = pressure. Green tie
strap = Return to tank. The hoses must be hooked up to the correct outlet for the hydraulics to function properly (pressure
hose to pressure outlet, return hose to tank outlet).
Ensure that snap couplers are clean before connection!
The hydraulic system requires an oil flow of approximately 0.8 GPM (3 liters) and a minimum pressure of 1,950 PSI (130 bar).

Requirements - tractor (SPB-HZ)

Connection requirements are:
• One double acting hydraulic outlet for the lift, tilt and folding function of the sprayer.
The hydraulic hoses are marked with colored tie straps to indicate direction of oil flow. Red tie strap = pressure. Green tie
strap = Return to tank. The hoses must be hooked up to the correct outlet for the hydraulics to function properly (pressure
hose to pressure outlet, return hose to tank outlet).
Ensure that snap couplers are clean before connection!
The hydraulic system requires an oil flow of approximately 0.8 GPM (3 liters) and a minimum pressure of 1,950 PSI (130 bar).

Requirements - Ace 206 Hydraulic pump

Refer to Ace instruction manual for hydraulic requirements and setup for the Ace 206 hydraulic driven Centrifugal pump.
