Engine Compartment Access
Important: Do not raise the lift arm with
the engine cover raised.
To open the engine compartment, turn the
rear door latch and carefully lower the rear
door. Lift the engine cover. The side
panels are removed by turning the
butterfly bolts and pulling the panels out.
The side panels are easier to access if the
lift arm is raised and secured (page 17).
Note: The rear door may be stood on.
Tilting the ROPS Back
A manual hydraulic pump in the engine compartment is used to tilt the ROPS
back. The pump handle is stored on the right side of the compartment. A
manual lock mechanism engages to lock the ROPS in a rolled-back position.
To tilt the ROPS back, use the following procedure:
1. Remove the two anchor bolts at the front of the
ROPS.
2. Place the pump handle in the pump.
3. Tighten the needle valve.
4. Pump until the ROPS is tilted enough that the
lock mechanism underneath the right side of
the ROPS engages.
5. To lower the ROPS, return the lock
mechanism to the unlocked position. Loosen
the needle valve and the ROPS will slowly tilt
back down. Reinstall the anchor bolts, washers
and locknuts.
WARNING
loader with the ROPS removed or locked
back. Be sure the lock mechanism is
securely engaged when the ROPS is tilted
back. Be sure to reinstall the anchor bolts,
washers and locknuts before resuming
loader operation.
