CAUTION: Escaping high-pressure fluid can penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting the system lines.

If an accident occurs, consult a doctor immediately. Any fluid that penetrates the skin must be surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene can result.

CAUTION: Avoid personal injury. Shut off engine, move SCV control levers and multi-function lever to neutral position and lock them before attaching implements to prevent implement movement.

CAUTION: Prior to connecting or separating hydraulic hoses, put the controls for selective control valve into neutral position and lock them to prevent implement movement and the risk of injury.

IMPORTANT: Hydraulic hoses can fail due to physical damage, kinks, age, and exposure. Check hoses regularly.

Any dirt, dust, or other foreign material can damage hydraulic system. Thoroughly clean hydraulic hoses and SCVs before connecting an implement to the tractor.

IMPORTANT: Steam cleaning or using a high pressure washer in the area around the SCV connections and electronics may damage equipment. In the case of high-pressure washers with a pressure of more than 6900 kPa (69 bar) (1000 psi), a min. distance of 200 mm (8 in.) to the connections must be maintained.

1. Engage park lock.

2. Lock out SCV controls:

   • Bring the SCV control lever into the neutral position and lock with the levers (A).
   • Turn locking ring (B) to the right to lock the multi-function lever (mechanical)¹.
   • Press lock button (C) for multi-function lever (electrical)¹.
   
   

3. Clean dust caps. Turn dust caps to the side to expose ports.

4. IMPORTANT: Be sure to correctly connect hydraulic hoses to couplers. If hose connections are reversed, machine will not respond to system controls as expected.

   Assignment of SCVs at rear

   Extend = lower port

   Retract = upper port

   NOTE: The SCV ports are identified by numbers I to III (D).

   Check if symbols (F) or (G) on the ports, indicating cylinder movement, match cylinder travel direction.

5. If a single-acting cylinder is connected to an SCV, connect hose into the bottom part of extend coupler (H). If double-acting cylinders are used, extend coupler (H) is located at the bottom and retract coupler (E) is located at the top.

6. Push hose(s) firmly into the coupler(s).

NOTE: SCVs are color-coded for easier identification. Hose identification kits are available from your John Deere™ dealer.
