 Topic: HYDRAULIC HOSES
Posted: 08 Apr 2010 at 1:10pm |
|
I need new hoses for the clyinders to pick up the plows, do I just take them off and goto a hose place or does someone have them already made up. the "driver side" is leaking but I think I should replace both if not to much $$$. Also how do they come off? do I remove the clyinder to unscrew the hose? Really havent looked yet.

Best bet is to take your old hose in,depends what type of fitting on the end,release pressure on cyl.and unscrew hose.

Do you have a Farm and Fleet store close to you or a supply store that sells farm supplies if so they will have what you need to get. You should not have to take the cylindar off the plow. I would take the hose with me if I was doing it to be safe.

JC I hope that I can help you out!
There is a place in Zelienople, sp? that can do it! Not sure of the name, but it is on RT 19 going north, just before the bowling lanes! Take the old, they will match with new! Just about 1/2 mile south of the town! On th left going North, side road to say, can't think of the NAME!

Your local farm store like Farm and Fleet will have hoses made up. The problem is they won't have a swivel in them like hoses on the CA or WD's and they won't be rated at a high enough pressure. The lower pressure rating probably won't bother for the next 20 years. If you could find exact replacements, you will probably have to stop at the bank for a loan. We made hoses up were I used to work and they cost 2 to 3 times what Farm and Fleet got for the same length hose, it was just handier for some farmers to get what they wanted and be back to work.

I took the ones off of my CA to the local NAPA and he made me a set in about 10 minutes, and sold me a replacement swivel for the one that was buggered up.

Napa, Carquest or any reputable auto parts store can make them for a reasonable price. Simply remove the old hose and bring it in to get one made the right length and with the proper fittings.

Most hoses have the rating printed on the outside. The smaller the hose diameter the higher the rating. You probably need 3/8" hoses and any good brand 3/8" 2 wire hose will carry the 3500 PSI. If I knew the kind of fittings and the length I could ship you a set.JP

There is usually a fitting on one end that will turn while you hold the other side of it. Then on the other end of the hose, you just unscrew the hose and fitting out of the connection. You may want to consider spending a little more and putting quick disconnects on cylinder end, then you can disconnect it and use it for another use if the need arises. I did that on my WD and used them for the loader, or the rear lift.

Cylinders are self bleeding. Just operate to full out and full in for a few cycles. When I replace them, I install the swivel fittings on both ends to eliminate having to twist a hose to remove/install.

The hoses hoses I have have got from tractor supply/farm fleet etc. have not failed but did look like 20 year old hoses after a year out doors, I will spend more next time and hope they look good awhile.

Single braid or double braid hoses are available at many bulk dealers (farm stores), and same with fittings. also remember if you use any fittings they should be Sc 80 or better.
Normal plumbing fittings ells , couplings, pipe , is Sc 40 and only rated for 125 PSI.

Another thing I see is people useing galvanized pipeing. This is a NO-NO! The galvanizing flakes off and over time ruins the pump. Always use black pipe.
