2.4.2 Hydraulic connections on the cart
Purpose of use:
The fork lift mast can be equipped with a hydraulic connection to the fork carriage to allow the connection of
ancillary hydraulic cylinders or hydraulic motors to the fork carriage. The tractor must be equipped with an
extra double action hydraulic installation or operation must be done via an extra valve block. See also
chapter 2.4.3.
Commissioning:
Make sure the mast and the fork carriage is in the lowest position. Loosen the chain (s) by slightly turning
the nuts on the chain tightener. Remove the bolt(s) in the hose roll and replace this (these) by M16x120
bolt(s) which fasten the hose roll and the bushes for the hose roll at the same time. Tighten securely. Place
the hoses on the roll. Mount the hydraulic connectors to the mounting plate on the fork carriage. Secure the
hoses to the forak carriage with hose clamps. Don’t tighten the hoses too tight.
Connect the hoses to a
double acting hydraulic connection. It is imperative here that the shortcuts are clean so that no dirt enters
the hydraulic system of the machine.
Manual:
Take care that the hydraulic hoses cannot become entangled. Take care that the operating handles cannot
become mutually entangled with other operating handles in order to prevent unintentional operating.
