Preparing Stored Loader for Mounting

If your loader has been completely collapsed for long-term storage, it is necessary to expand loader first, before it can be mounted on tractor. Follow instructions below to prepare loader for mounting.

1.Slowly drive tractor up to loader until hoses will reach from loader to control valve couplers.

2.Make sure quick couplers are clean. Connect quick couplers between tractor and loader. Match color coded bands when connection couplers.

3.Start tractor engine and release tractor brakes. Operate lift control to extend lift cylinders until side frame uprights will clear front axle. Make sure counterweighted hinges swing fully open. Proceed to instruction 1 in “Mounting Procedure” below.

NOTE: Tractor may have to be moved backward or forward while extending lift cylinders to maintain slack in hydraulic hoses.
