DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISCONNECT LINES OR REMOVE PLUGS IN THE CUSHION HITCH CIRCUIT UNTIL THE ENGINE HAS BEEN SHUT OFF FOR AT LEAST FIVE MINUTES. The five minute wait permits oil pressure in the accumulators to be relieved. The hissing sound can be heard at the selector lever while the system is being bled. If the engine is shut off when the machine is in cushion ride, the hitch will lower as the circuit is bled. DO NOT PLACE HANDS OR FEET AROUND HITCH COMPONENTS UNTIL THE HITCH IS COMPLETELY LOWERED. Failure to heed this warning can result in the sudden release of high pressure oil.
1. Drain hydraulic tank-capacity 25 U.S. Gal. (95 liters).2. Bleed air reservoirs (tractor and scraper). 3. Disconnect air lines from inversion valve (3).

Disconnect air lines to the apply side of the rotochamber and pressurize the apply side of the rotochamber with shop air.b. Disconnect the air line to the parking lock release mechanism on the lower side of the rotochamber. Apply shop air to the lock release mechanism and maintain the pressure.c. Relieve shop air pressure to the apply side of the rotochamber and the brakes will release.d. Relieve the pressure to the lock release mechanism, and reconnect all air brake lines. 10. Install horizontal hitch pin puller, tool (A) and remove front hitch pin. 11. Remove rear hitch pin using tool (B). 12. Move the tractor away from the scraper using a lift truck.
