PLS and FRS prior to starting the task to allow excess hydraulic oil to drain. Failure to
comply may result in damage to hydraulic reservoir or hydraulic system.

hydraulic pump or other failure which prevents operation of the hydraulic system.

slave hose. Remove return hose from PLS truck stowage box.
