ATTACHING LOADER

IMPORTANT:
Never attempt loader attachment on grades which are not reasonably level.
1. Check to be sure that the surfaces of the mounts are free of obstructions.
(Fig 8-1)
2. Drive the tractor slowly and carefully in between the loader arms only far
enough to permit hook-up of the hydraulic system hoses. (Fig. 8-2)
3. Once all hoses have been properly coupled drive the tractor forward
checking to insure that the top pivot shaft on each loader upright clears the
top cradle on each mount tower. (Fig. 8-3)
4. Allow the top pivot shaft to settle into the cradle on the top of each mount
tower. After the uprights slide into the mount raise the loader slowly to
engage firmly into the mount cradles.
5. To lock the loader onto the mount, install the two 665421 – 1" diameter
mount pins into the uprights through the mount tightener and pin with hitch
pin. (Fig. 8-4) (Note: The left side mount pin will need to be inserted from
the inside of the upright due to muffler interference.) (The left side hood
panel will need to be temporarily removed to do so.)
6. To secure the loader to the mount tighten the 3/4" bolt at the back of the
mount tower. (Fig. 8-5) Re-check bolts after first three hours of use.
7. After both uprights are secured to the mounts, raise the loader still further
to disengage and store the loader stands in the torque tube of the loader
frame. (Fig 8-6)
8. Prior to operation, be certain to review all safety and operation
information contained within this manual. Check bolts on back of mount or
the first 3 hours of use, then check periodically during normal maintenance
procedure.
