ASSEMBLY
6. Remove linch 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.
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-0026).
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.
Mounting Loader
Mounting is basically reverse of dismounting.
1. Slowly drive tractor into loader approximately 6” from loader mounts. Shut off tractor engine and set
parking brake.
2. Connect hydraulic hoses. Make sure couplers are clean before connecting together.
3. Start engine and release parking brake. Make sure lift cylinders are extended 6” to 8”. Stroke bucket
cylinders to raise or lower upright pin to clear each front mount pin saddle by approximately 1” (See Figure
Asm-L-0026).
4. Drive tractor forward until loader upright pins contact mount vertical stop surfaces just above the mount pin
saddles (See Figure Asm-L-0026). Extend bucket cylinders to FULLY seat both loader upright pins into
mount pin saddles and raise parking stands off ground. Retract lift cylinders, allowing tractor to move
forward. Continue until loader uprights have fully seated into back of mount tube saddles by retracting lift
cylinders to raise tractor front end (tires can be off ground).
5. Stop engine. Allow tractor front end to lower by relaxing ONLY lift cylinders with control lever.
6. Set parking braket. Insert two 1” hitch pins and linch pins.
7. Remove linch pins and clevis pins from parking stands, rotate stands into storage position and secure with
clevis pins and linch pins (See Figure Asm-L-0024).
Note: If front wheel spacings were changed while loader was off tractor, tire clearances must be checked and
possibly adjusted to ensure proper clearances.
