Crown RC5500:
Hydraulic lines

What is the best way to replace the two hydraulic lines on the left hand side?

TT mast, hoses are for a 154in lift height.

We have the cover off the lower part that covers the two hoses, there seems to be a hard line and a bigger hose in the way even after the cover is off.

Can we remove the two big M16 screws on the bottom to loosen the accessory guide wldt? that holds the hoses at the bottom of the mast near the drive motors.

Yeah mast hoses are never fun especially when replacing multiple. Helps when they make the new hoses the proper length too.

Yeah we removed the forks, chained the load backrest, and gave us enough slack. It was for both the side shift hoses. was a PITA to get them in and bend them around.

Thanks for the reply.

If you are planning on removing any hoses that are on the mast you will want to take weight off the mast chains and apply slack in the hoses otherwise you will not be able to get them back into the correct position.
I'm not 100% sure which hoses you are refering to but you can remove the M16 screws just remeber to have slack before removing, that should solve the issue.
