Bleeding Air Out Of Reel Lift Circuit

If the reel does not go up or down evenly, it may

be necessary to bleed the slave cylinder. Complete

this procedure only when the swather drive is

disengaged and the swather is resting on the

ground. Lower the reel to the bottom of the cylinder

stroke. The reel cylinders have a center to center

collapsed length of 18”. Fully extended cylinder

length is 28”.

Cycle the reel to the top of the stroke, then lower the

reel until about 2” of cylinder rod remains exposed.

Shut the windrower down. Wait for 10 to 15 minutes

to allow the air bubbles in the oil to dissipate.

Loosen the bleed port cap on the slave cylinder

(far left hand cylinder). Air and oil will escape, and

the reel will settle. Tighten the bleed screw (cap)

and cycle the reel again. If needed, repeat this

procedure.

Because of expansion in hydraulic lines, it is normal for the slave cylinder to lag

slightly when lifting the reel

Single Reel Lift Circuit

When the operator opens the valve in the

windrower, oil is forced into the barrel end of the left

hand master cylinder, as the cylinder piston rises, oil

on the top side of the piston is forced out of the rod

end port, into the port on the slave cylinder.
