1)
The tightening torques for the threaded plugs are valid for the condition "dry" and "lightly oiled".
2)
The tightening torques for the threaded plugs are valid for the condition "dry" – inthe condition "lightly oiled", the tightening torques
for M10×1 are reduced to10Nm and for M12×1.5 to17Nm.
To connect the axial piston unit tothe hydraulic system:
1. Remove the protective plugs orthreaded plugs from the ports where the
connections should bemade according tothe hydraulic circuit diagram.
2. Make sure the sealing surfaces ofthehydraulic ports and functional surfaces are
not damaged.
3. Use only clean hydraulic lines orflush them before installation.
(Observechapter7.5 "Performing flushing cycle" onpage42 when you flush
out the entire system.)
4. Connect the lines inaccordance with the installation drawing and the machine
orsystem circuit diagram. Check that all ports are connected orplugged with
threaded plugs. With inside-reservoir installation, the housing oftheaxial
piston unit must befilled before fitting the lines and filling the reservoir with
hydraulicfluid.
5. Properly tighten the fittings (observe tightening torques!). Mark all properly
tightened fittings, e.g.with apermanent marker.
6. Check all pipes and hose lines and every combination ofconnecting pieces,
couplings orconnecting points with hoses orpipes toensure they are insafe
working condition.
