ASSEMBLY

Attaching Quick Attach Buckets or Round Bale Spear

To avoid injury during installation of bucket or bale spear, do not allow bystanders within 10 feet of loader, bucket and bale spear.

1.Locate tractor and attachment on firm level ground. Lower boom to rest on ground.

2.Extend bucket cylinders slightly, while raising boom to three to five inches of ground clearance. Making sure loader quick attach bar is parallel to attachment, drive tractor ahead very slowly toward attachment. Continue driving tractor forward, positioning quick attach bar so it touches attachment just below attachment channel.

3.Activate bucket rollback while moving tractor slightly ahead so quick attach bar catches underneath channel of attachment. Continue to roll attachment back completely so latch pins engage in bracket ears.

4.Activate lift cylinder to raise attachment and extend bucket cylinders to tilt attachment at a slight downward angle so quick attachment mechanism is visible. Visually inspect mechanism to verify pins are engaged in ears on back of attachment.

NOTE: If bucket or bale spear is not securely attached, follow instructions for detaching, then repeat above procedure.
