Rhino Mounts 1594 manual Dismounting the Loader

ASSEMBLY

Dismounting the Loader

1.Locate tractor and loader on firm level ground.

2.With bucket raised above ground, tilt bucket down approximately 30 degrees from level.

3.Lower boom by retracting lift cylinders to lift tractor front end (tires can be off ground).

4.Stop Engine. Allow tractor front end to lower by relaxing ONLY lift cylinders with control lever. This will remove pressure on hitch pins (See Figure Asm-L-0002).

NOTE: Do not relax bucket Cylinders.

5.Set parking brake. Rotate parking stands from storage position by removing lynch pins and clevis pins. Reinstall clevis pins and lynch pins when parking stands are in operation position (See Figure Asm-L-0001).

6.Remove lynch pins and 1” hitch pins from loader upright.

7.Start tractor engine and release brakes. Retract bucket cylinders to allow parking stands to contact ground.

It is important not to put excessive weight on parking stands with lift cylinder retraction. Damage may result.

8.Extend lift cylinders 6” to 8” to rotate top of loader uprights forward out of the mount, allowing tractor to be pushed rearward. Retract bucket cylinders until lower loader upright pins clear mount pin saddles and front tires (See Figure Asm-L-0003).

9.Move tractor rearward approximately 6”, being certain not to stretch hydraulic hoses.

10.Stop tractor engine and set parking brake. Relax lift cylinders and bucket cylinders by moving each control lever in both directions. Disconnect hydraulic hoses from tractor.

11.Start tractor engine and release brakes. Slowly back tractor out of loader.
