Mounting and Dismounting Attachment

Mounting Attachment to Loader

To avoid injury during installation of bucket or attachment, do not allow bystanders within 10
feet of loader, bucket or attachment.

1. Locate tractor and attachment on level ground. Lower boom to rest on the ground. Extend the bucket

cylinders slightly, while raising the boom to provide three to five inches of ground clearance. Drive the
tractor ahead slowly toward the attachment, aligning the loader quick attach device as shown.
Note:To help guide loader quick attach device into attachment, alignment reflective tape has been applied
to back of attachment as shown.

2. While driving the tractor ahead slowly to maintain contact with the attachment, activate the lift cylinders to

raise the loader until the quick attach engages under the attachment lip.

3. Activate bucket cylinders to retract, continuing to roll the attachment back completely.
4. Use instructions listed in MAINTENANCE SECTION of this manual to check all hose and tubing

connections to insure no leaks are present.

5. Start tractor, activate lift cylinders to raise attachment one or two feet off the ground and extend bucket

cylinders to tilt attachment at a slight downward angle, so quick attachment latch pins are visible. Visually
inspect the attachment mechanism to verify that the pins are engaged through the latch plate on the back
of the attachment.

Note: If the attachment is not securely attached, follow the instructions for detaching it and repeat the above
procedure.
