Steps: (see illustration, section 5.1)

1. Raise the lift arms upward, keeping the bucket curled slightly until the

bottom of the bucket clears the side of the truck bed or trailer.

2. Once clear, drive the machine forward until the pivot point of the bucket

clears the bed side.

3. Tilt the bucket forward until all of the material has been released into the

bed and if necessary, quickly tilt and curl the bucket to loosen stubborn

material.

5.9 Fastening Attachments (see also section 5.1)

1. Make sure the locking levers on the quick attach mechanism are in their

respective unlocked positions. (fig. 5.10-1)

2. With the lift arms fully lowered, drive the machine to the attachment and

hook the top edge of the quick attach under the upper lip of the attachment.

3. Curl the quick attach slowly upward by moving the lift arm control joystick

to the left until the attachment is properly mated with the quick attach

mechanism. (Curl enough to lift the attachment off of the ground.)

4. Once the attachment is properly mated, move the two locking levers inward

and downward to lock the attachment in place.

Note: When fastening an attachment, always visually verify that the attachment is

locked in place prior to operation. (fig. 5.10-2, 5.10-3)

5. To physically verify that the attachment is properly locked in place, apply

light pressure to the attachment while rotating it against the ground.
