Quick Release Couplings

Connecting Quick Release Couplings

1 Remove any residual hydraulic pressure trapped in
the service line hose.

2 Wipe the two faces of the male and female couplings

and make sure they are clean.

3 Make sure that ball C in the female coupling is located

in one of its slots.

4 Fit the male coupling into the female coupling; To

ensure that the coupling is not accidentally released,
rotate sleeve E a quarter turn and make sure that the
locking ball C does not align with the slot D.

Disconnecting Quick Release Couplings

1 Remove any residual hydraulic pressure trapped in
the service line hose.

2 Align the slot D with ball C.

3 Pull back sleeve E to release the coupling.
