The loader is a complex machine. The operator must read this manual before using the machine for the first time. Familiarise yourself with: — The safety instructions, — Hitching and unhitching the loader, — Hitching and unhitching work implements, — Full use of the controls. Subject to modifications...
— For full use of the MX loader, the tractor must be equipped with a structure to protect against falling objects. If this is not the case, limit the use of the MX loader (see the "LOADER USE LIMITS" section). Caution: the protective fitting must be in active position while working.

MX on the MX loader, will render the MX guarantee on all supplied items null and void. — Use only genuine MX spare parts. Do not carry out any modifications yourself or have anyone else do so on your MX loader and its implements (mechanical, electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic specifications) without seeking prior approval in writing from MX.
2. SAFETY STICKERS Safety stickers are affixed to the loaders. Make sure these stickers are clean and legible; replace them if damaged. Familiarise yourself with the safety instructions in the user manual before using or working on the loader. Follow the loader hitching and unhitching procedure given in the user manual. Use the anchoring points when handling the loader.
3. IDENTIFICATION PLATE The identification plate is located inside the loader’s right arm. The serial number and loader model shown on this plate must be quoted in any request for spare parts information or technical assistance. 4. COUNTERWEIGHT The stability of the tractor-loader unit can only be ensured with a counterweight installed on the rear of the tractor. This should ensure that 20% of the gross weight (tractor, loader, implement, maximum load and counterweight) bears on the rear axle of the tractor for optimum working safety.
Refer to the user manual for the tractor. 5.1.1 Front / rear control selector (optional) From the tractor’s original joystick, the user in the cab controls either the MX loader or the rear couplings.

6. LOADER UNHITCHING Watch the unhitching/hitching video at www.m-x.eu This operation must be carried out by the driver, who must leave the seat and ensure all manoeuvres are forbidden while he is working on the loader. The loader must always be hitched to an implement of at least 100 kg to unhitch it.
Page 17
— A gab (10 to 30 mm) should remain between the stand and the ground. 10...30 mm — On the right side, pull the unlocking handle downwards. The locking indicator is in the red zone. — Disconnect the hydraulics and the electrics. Loader with MACH System —...
Page 18
Loader without MACH System — Close the valve and disconnect the hydraulic couplings. — Install protective caps (clean) on the male and female couplings and stow the hoses on the loader. — Go back to the driving position and check that the locking indicators on the left and right hitching frames are in the red zone.
7. LOADER HITCHING Watch the unhitching/hitching video at www.m-x.eu — Check that no object is present to hamper the loader connection. — The bracket heads are provided with a ramp and a roller for raising the loader to the hitching. —...
Page 20
Loader without MACH System: — Remove the caps. — Connect the hydraulic couplings. — Open the valve. — Raise and lock the right and left parking stands. Check that each parking stand is correctly locked. — Checks to be carried out before starting work: put the tool in forced ground support (front wheels of the tractor raised) to check the correct hitching of the loader.
8. IMPLEMENT UNHITCHING This operation must be carried out by the driver, who must leave the seat and ensure all manoeuvres are forbidden while he is working on the loader. — Choose a level and solid surface. — Set down the implement horizontally 0.30 m above the ground.
Page 22
— Unlocked implement position. — Set the implement down on the ground by lightly dumping to release the implement carrier from the implement. Subject to modifications...
9. IMPLEMENT HITCHING This operation must be carried out by the driver, who must leave the seat and ensure all manoeuvres are forbidden while he is working on the loader. — Make sure that the locking pins are in hitching position (1). The springs are compressed.
Press the implement down on the ground (the tractor’s front wheels lift) to check correct locking. Operate each moving part fully, in each direction, to check the sealing of the hydraulic circuit and the correct routing of the hoses. 10. IMPLEMENT CARRIER MODELS 10.1 MX implement carrier 10.2 Euro implement carrier Subject to modifications...
11. LEVEL INDICATOR The level indicator enables implement positioning when the loader is lowering. It is on the left side of the loader. It can be adjusted according to the implement used. Indicator Bucket parallel to ground 12. SHOCK ELIMINATOR SYSTEM * Shocks are eliminated during movement or when stopping the loader quickly when lowering (*optional).
13. SAFETY WHILE LIFTING AND DUMPING * This device is essential for working when people are present near the load (*optional). Complies with standard EN 12525 + A2 2010; this equipment is compatible with the Shock Eliminator and the float detent position.
14. MAINTENANCE Drain the tractor’s hydraulic circuit regularly and change the filters following the manufacturer’s recommendation. Polluted oil stops lubricating, and wears all the hydraulic components (pumps, control valves, rams). Even clear oil can be overused. Maintenance operations must be performed by competent persons, authorised by the dealer. If this is not the case, these operations shall fall under the sole responsibility of the person carrying out the work.
Page 28
Every month, or more often with heavy use, check: — The condition of the loader’s pivot points. As required, replace wear bushes and/or the pins. Wear bushes must be replaced if they are less than 1 mm thick. — The level of the tractor’s hydraulic oil and the sealing of the hydraulic circuit. If you find any internal or external leaks on hydraulic components (rams, pipes, connectors, Mach, couplings, etc.), contact your dealer.
15. USAGE RECOMMENDATIONS — Each implement has been designed for a specific use and has its own resistance limits. — Land clearing and stump pulling are prohibited. This work must be done with specialized machinery and is not appropriate for the agricultural loader. —...
16. RECYCLING MX PRODUITS Hydraulic systems — At the end of their service life, MX products must be drained of hydraulic oil by an authorised service technician. — The hydraulic hoses must be removed before the equipment can be recycled.
