Always stop the attachment by turning the auxiliary hydraulics control lever to its neutral position and before reaching into the mixing drum, shut down the loader engine first and release the residual pressure of the hydraulic system.

Coupling the attachment to the loader Coupling the attachment to the loader is quick and easy, but it must be done carefully. The attachment is fixed to the loader boom by using the quick attach plate and the counterpart on the attachment.
5.2. Connecting and disconnecting hydraulic couplings The default connector for hydraulic couplings is the multiconnector system. If you want to change the type of the hydraulic couplings of the attachment or the loader, contact your Avant dealer or service point for instructions or installation services.
12(20) Conventional quick couplings (alternative couplings for some loader models): Before connecting or disconnecting the standard quick couplings, the residual pressure must be released as shown above. If the pressure is not released, the fittings will not connect easily. To connect and disconnect the standard couplings, move the collar at the end of the female fitting.
