You will have to cycle the bottems several times to get all the air out. To do this hook a hose to the valve next to the accumulator put your 55 in float lower the plow and drive forward. Once the bottems trip pressurize them and do it again till you have all the air out of the system. When you are done bleeding the system presurize it to say 2000lbs shut the valve and go plow. If the bottems trip build up pressure till they don't trip. Once you have the pressure where you want it you can take the hose off and plug the valve. We drug an 880 hyd.reset plow around for about 15 years and only had to raise the pressure a couple of times. We pulled our 6-16, 880 with an 1130 and later with a 1155. A true test for your 1155 is to feather the trottle back very slowly till it is at a dead idle with the plow in the ground. Then hit it and listen to that 540 V-8 wind back up. I would do that with the JD boys in the cab with me and ask them if they could do that with the green iron they ran. None of them would take me on and one of my friends still talks about it 27 years later.

Happy Plowing Merle

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
