STEP 1 For a new loader installation, the mountings must be installed on the tractor first. Refer to the typical mounting kit shown in Figure 1. A detailed schematic of your specific kit is available—just call 1-800-570-8205 if the schematic was not included with your new loader.

STEP 2 The loader should have been dismounted (or assembled) on flat, level ground (see Figure 2).

STEP 3 Approach the loader as shown in Figure 3 and connect the hydraulics.

STEP 4 Once the hydraulics are functional, begin to slowly tip the bucket forward from its flat position, see Figure 4A. This will bring the upright masts of the loader towards the support shafts on the mountings (Fig. 4B). Figure 4C shows the mast completely seated on the support shaft. Once the mast is resting on the support shaft, the V-block will also be aligned with the tapered guide block. The lift cylinders can be used to rotate the upright mast and firmly seat the V-block against the guide block.

STEP 5 Using a 1-1/2” socket or end wrench, install and tighten the 1” retaining bolt that secures the V-block to the guide block. See Figure 5.

STEP 6 Raise the bucket off the ground so that the stand legs are hanging free. See Figure 6.

STEP 7 Return the stand legs to their stored position. See Figure 7.
