Mounting Pin and Mounting Backhoe
IMPORTANT

• Make sure both hoses are firmly connected before starting
the engine.
WARNING
• Do not move the joystick control lever to the swing position.
1. Start the engine.
2. Stand beside the rear wheel. Move the boom to fully raising
position and raise the backhoe by operating the stabilizers until
the mount bar on the backhoe main frame are slightly higher than
the tractor main frame support hooks.
NOTE

• If the support hooks are not parallel to the mount bars,
adjust with the stabilizers.
3. Move the tractor backward until the support hooks on the tractor
main frame are just beneath the mount bar on the backhoe main
frame.
4. Lower the mount bar onto the support hooks by operating the
stabilizer and boom control levers.
5. Move the boom slowly to the lowering position, and engage the
guide plates of the main frame to the bosses of sub frame. Then
raise the rear wheels slightly by operating the boom to the
lowering direction.
6. Shut off the engine. Reinstall the mounting pins, and insert the
slide bar of the mounting pins to the hole of the main frame.
IMPORTANT

• Be careful not to catch the hydraulic hoses between
backhoe frame and tractor while mounting the backhoe.
NOTE

• Move the tractor / loader / backhoe to an open area and cycle
all backhoe functions. This will check their operation and
flow oil back through the system, filtering it and refilling
each circuit. Check the hydraulic oil level before putting the
backhoe into full operation. See section "MAINTENANCE"
for oil type and correct level.
