LB85-160 Plough Hydraulic Connections

[DrWazzock]

Its a variwidth plough.
Can anybody tell me which pipe or connection into the hydraulic sequencing memory block does what?
There are 4 hose connections on the "memory block" hydraulic thing. Two larger hoses and two not quite so large. There are tie wraps round them. 1 tiewrap on one hose, 2 tiewraps on another hose and 3 tie wraps on each of the two other hoses. Probably meant something to somebody but means nothing to me.
I have download the manuals but it doesnt give an explanation.
Thanks.

Are the two thicker ones the main turn over and the smaller ones for a press arm release

Yes, at a guess I would say the two thicker ones are for turnover and the two smaller ones are for furrow width adjustment ( opening closing the plough) but I wouldn't mind knowing for definite before I just plug it in and damage something. It doesn't have a press arm.

The tie wraps sounds like the plug in code ,1 and 2 into one spool bank top and bottom or which ever way they are set out ,,the two with 3 are a pair into another spool

Exactly this that's what my EG is

Thanks. Got it right eventually. LB 85 is a new plough to me. Tried it today. Perfect level job running straight as a die through heavy clay and sand. Wish we had bought one years ago. Renault Temis 130z pulling 5 furrows at 16” through some heavy cack with ease. At last something has gone right this year without much ado.

The two thinner pipes were furrow width adjustment and the thicker ones were turnover ram. The tie wraps must have made sense on the previous owners tractor but they made no sense on mine so took a bit of swapping about to get it working.
