    For the OmniRow system to function properly, its hydraulic tank line must connect to a low pressure return connection on the tractor that prohibits the tank pressure from exceeding 200 psi. A motor return connection is the ideal connection for the OmniRow system because it prevents the pressure from being reversed to the system.
