Section VI. MAINTENANCE OF THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
4-14.
General
a.
The pneumatic rock (hill is equipped with a close
circuit hydraulic system that operates only when
hydraulic power is needled. A pressure regulated, vane-
type air motor powers a high capacity van type hydraulic
pump to supply hydraulic pressure, as required for
operating the feed tilt cylinder, boom lift cylinder, feed
swing cylinder, boom swing cylinder and feed extension
cylinder. The hydraulic cylinders are double acting and
self
locking when not in use.
b.
Individual control levers operate each cylinder
independently.

CAUTION
Before
disconnecting
hydraulic
hoses, lower the boom and rest it on
the ground. When disconnecting
hydraulic
hoses,
loosen
