fittingsintomotorports(seeHydraulicFittingInstallation
in the General Information section ofthis chapter). Make
sure that fittings are orientated correctly.
2. Remove cover from top of spindle that was placed to
prevent debris from entering spindle.
3. Make sure that O--ring is positioned to top of spindle
housing. Secure hydraulic motor to thecutting deck with

4. Remove caps or plugs from fittings and hoses.
IMPORTANT: When installing the hydraulic hoses,
make sure that hydraulic hosesare straight (not twisted)
before tightening the hoses to the motor fittings.
5. Lubricate and install new O--rings on motor fittings.
