Hello I live in Montana where its not unusual for the winter weather to reach -40, is it okay to leave my attachment with hydraulic hoses outside and exposed to the cold? If not what should I do to protect it? Thanks! :confused:

You don't need to protect it unless it is rubbing on something or too close to something hot. I would just try to get the oil warm before you push things too hard. The cold oil will add lots of backpressure. ISZ

Raising and maintaining the 3PH control lever (while engine warming up) to the top extreme will help warm up the hyd oil......the oil will be blowing over relief at the 3PH and add some heat

If you absolutely need cold weather hose, Gate has hose with a temp range of -70 to 212 degrees and anything in between.
