6. Figure 34: Attach the hose support (1) on the upper
3-point right hitch (2) with two 3/8" NC x 1 1/4" bolts
(3) and 3/8" nylon insert locknuts (4).
NOTE: If there is already a shorter hose support of
the hydraulic rotation kit that is installed on the
snow blower, remove the hose support to replace it
with the hose support supplied in this kit.

7. Figure 35: Run the hoses (1) over the snow blower
with a large bend radius, without interfering with the
sharp edges or maintenance of the snow blower.
Secure in the two top holes of the hose support (2)
with two hose clamps (3), two 3/8" NC x 1-1/4" bolts
and nylon insert locknuts (4, 5). Do not over-tighten
to avoid damaging the hoses.
IMPORTANT: Tighten all hydraulic fittings to spec-
ifications shown in the Fitting Torque Chart at the
end of this manual.
NOTE : This is a suggested routing of the hoses. In
this way, there is less risk of the hoses being caught
in the rotation system of the chute. However, other
configurations are also possible. Make sure that
there is enough hose length so that the chute can
rotate to the maximum right and left without pulling
on the hoses.

8. Connect the hoses to the tractor, raise and lower the
snow blower, and rotate the chute to all positions
to confirm the hoses are long enough and do not
interfere with any component. Attach the hoses with
a nylon tie (6) halfway between the cylinder and the
hose support.
NOTE: If deflector movement is too fast, it is possi-
ble to replace the elbows by flow restrictors.
NOTE: Figure 36 - The hose support is equipped
with a hose storage slot. When disconnecting the
quick couplings from the tractor, install the dust
caps on the quick couplers (item 1). Insert the hos-
es with the dust caps into the top opening (item 2)
of the hose support and slide down into the slot.
