This tractor is equipped with the
remote control valve of the double
acting type. However, this valve can
also be used in the single acting type
hydraulic cylinder.
1. Connect one end of the hydraulic
port to the single acting cylinder as
shown in the gure. The hydraulic
pressure is properly supplied to the
cylinder. However, when the hydrau-
lic pressure is released, the cylinder
is contracted only if there is outer
force, such as potential energy.

2. To contract the cylinder, operate
the lever to the opposite position of
the expansion. Then, the hydraulic
uid is supplied from the hydraulic
pump to the hydraulic port which
is not connected, and the pressure
rises as the port is blocked. How-
ever, this pressure is released as
the relief valve opens.

Put the detent valve operating
lever into the neutral position
when the hydraulic implement
is not in use. If the detent
valve is kept in the operating
position for an extended pe-
riod of time, the relief valve is
kept open and the temperature
of the hydraulic fluid rises,
leading to damage of various
hydraulic parts, such as the
oil seals and O-rings.

in operation, unnecessary
load is applied to the engine.
Therefore, the engine power
decreases significantly, and
noise and vibration by open
-
ing of the relief valve increase.
It is hard to start the engine
while the detent valve is in op
-
eration. This is especially true
in winter and exhaust gas in-
creases even after the engine
is started.
