# Hydraulic Hose Fitting

1. Using link hoses, interconnect each of the tensioners on one side of the flange. Connect the hydraulic downline to an unconnected male connector. Ensure there is an unconnected female connection available after hose assembly.

2. Interconnect each of the tensioners on the other side of the flange. Ensure there is a unconnected male connector and an unconnected female connection available.

3. Connect the two sides of the flange together with the supplied cross-over link hose, the crossover link hose is identical to the link hoses but it is longer. Connect the cross-over link hose from the female connection on the first flange side to the free male connector on the second flange side.

   C | Cross-over link hose

If the hydraulic hose system is fitted correctly, there will be a single FEMALE unconnected connection on flange side 2. This is correct and safe. It is SAFE to pressurize an unconnected female connection. It is however UNSAFE to have an unconnected male connector. If you are left with an unconnected male connection, check the hydraulic link hose assembly and correct the error.
