Removal procedure

Show/hide table

Cylinders equipped with lock valves can remain pressurized for very long periods of time, even with the hoses removed. Failure to relieve pressure before removing a lock valve or disassembling a cylinder can result in personal injury or death. Ensure all pressure is relieved before removing a lock valve or disassembling a cylinder.

1. Release the hydraulic system pressure.

2. The removal procedure is identical for both left and right tilt cylinder.

3. Position the Tilt-Rotator in horizontal position.
