About your Loop Hose Kit
This loop hose assembly is ideal for connecting supply and return couplers in a “loop” which is necessary to start the
hydraulic power unit when not coupled to any implement or application. If the loop hose kit isn’t installed and the
engine is attempted to be started the hydraulic system will be in a “dead head” state and damage could occur.
