Float will allow for the loader to lower and rise as the attachment follows the ground contours. To disengage float, slightly pull control back towards the neutral position. The Allied by Farm King Remote Hydraulic Control can be locked in the neutral position to minimize unintentional movement.
Page 16
Operation - 2895 Loader Minimize turning angle and length of run between pile and trailer to increase loading efficiency. Also, place load evenly or centered in the attachment. Carry the load no higher than necessary to clear the terrain. Turn and brake slowly.
Page 17
Operation - 2895 Loader For back grading, either load the bucket and position the heel on the ground or position the bucket at 40° or less below level as shown. Place the valve in the float position and back up slowly. Important: Float position must be used to reduce down pressure, otherwise cylinder rod(s) and/or bucket damage could occur.

Operation - 2895 Loader WARNING Do not operate A Frame for bales without stabilizers. Handling bales and pallets: For safe handling of bales and pallets please follow procedures below: With a single spear, enter one of the ends of the bale and drive the spear horizontally into the center or slightly above center of the bale and fully penetrate the bale.
Page 19
Operation - 2895 Loader When loading bales onto a trailer, park trailer in close proximity to minimize turning angle and length of travel to increase loading efficiency. As you lift the bale using the regular loader, it is recommended to feather the valve to allow bucket cylinders to extend to keep bale at about a 20°...

Operation - 2895 Loader Grapple: The grapple is designed to safely prevent loads (bales, silage) from falling out of the bucket. (Refer to pictorial below for options listed) Travel at low speeds. Carry loads as low as possible. Avoid sharp WARNING turns and uneven terrain.
Page 21
Operation - 2895 Loader Prior to initial mounting, cycle loader cylinders to displace air. This CAUTION ensures the loader will remain in the storage position and operate consistently. Installing Loader: Position the tractor centrally and parallel to the loader uprights. Drive forward slowly until the loader hydraulic hoses can be coupled.
Page 22
Operation - 2895 Loader Shut tractor off and store parking stands within loader cross tube remembering to stand on the outside of the loader arms. Start CAUTION the tractor and continue to cycle loader and attachment to verify loader operation. 5.

Operation - 2895 Loader 2. Lower attachment level to the ground while engaging float position. Ensure attachment rests firmly on ground with minimal downward pressure. If required extend bucket cylinders to rotate upright rearward. At this stage the pin should have no pressure. Set tractor park brake and remove loader lock pins.
Page 24
Operation - 2895 Loader Verify attachment installation from tractor seat by lowering level CAUTION attachment to ground and retracting the lift cylinders. Installing Loader Attachments: Position tractor centrally within the bucket hooks. Dump Quick-tach slightly from vertical position. Slowly drive the tractor forward until the Quick-tach contacts the bucket.
Maintenance - 2895 Loader Maintenance Lubrication Lubricate loader bushings and pivots every eight hours of average operation with high-grade grease. For grease fitting locations see illustration below. Select grease based on the expected outside temperature range. Lithium, Molybdenum and synthetic greases are preferred. Use the tractor hour meter as a guide.
Page 26
Maintenance - 2895 Loader General Inspection: Lower attachment and loader to ground, place all controls in CAUTION neutral, stop engine, set parking brake and remove ignition key before inspecting, servicing, adjusting or repairing loader. Relieve hydraulic pressure before repairing, adjusting or disconnecting hydraulics components.
Page 27
Maintenance - 2895 Loader Mounting Kit: After the initial 2 weeks or 40 hours of loader operation, and 6-month intervals thereafter re-torque all mounting kit bolts. (See Bolt Torque Chart)
Page 28
Maintenance - 2895 Loader Hydraulics: Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate the skin, causing serious personal injury. Before repairing, adjusting, or disconnecting lines, be sure to relieve all pressure. Before applying pressure to the system, be sure all connections are tight and the lines, pipes, and hoses are not damaged.

Maintenance - 2895 Loader Shut tractor down and relieve oil pressure in system by moving WARNING the control valve spools in both directions before doing any maintenance. Maintenance involves yearly removal of valve spool end caps and cleaning all debris and corrosion.
Maintenance - 2895 Loader TSL General Note and Instructions The true self leveling system (TSL) utilizes mechanical linkages to maintain bucket level while raising and lowering. The pivot plate weldment, leveling tubes and linkages have been developed to ensure that the bucket remains at the same position throughout its range of motion.
