A - Dust Plug

1. If possible, retract remote cylinder as much as possible to protect cylinder rod from damage.

2. CAUTION: Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all connections before applying pressure. Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard. Protect hands and body from high pressure fluids.

   If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately. Any fluid injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene may result. Doctors unfamiliar with this type of injury should reference a knowledgeable medical source. Such information is available from Deere & Company Medical Department in Moline, Illinois, U.S.A.

   With as much hydraulic pressure relieved as possible from hoses, pull hoses from couplers.

3. Make sure dust plugs (A) for receptacles and dust caps for hoses are clean, then install dust plugs.
