CAUTION
• When starting the engine, always sit in the operator's seat.
• When getting off the tractor, make sure that PTO lever is off and range gear shift lever is in neutral. Then
set the parking brake.
• Keep hands, feet and body from between tractor and backhoe. Never allow any part of body under the
machine.
• When leaving the operator's seat, fully lower the boom to the ground.
• When removing the backhoe set the swing lock pin.
IMPORTANT

• When removing the backhoe, set the engine speed slightly above low idle.
• For removing the backhoe, locate the tractor / loader / backhoe on a flat and hard surface, preferably
concrete. If the ground surface is soft, place a board on the ground for the bucket and stabilizers.

2. Set the swing lock pin to prevent the pivoting of the boom before
removing the backhoe.

bucket and lower the boom until the back of bucket contacts the
ground.
