Coupling the attachments
Install the attachment to the attachment coupling plate as follows:
Step 1 :
• Lift up the two locking pins on both sides of the attachment coupling plate
and turn them backward so that they remain in the up position
• Make sure that the pins remain in the up position, otherwise you cannot
couple the attachment properly!
Step 2 :
• Turn the attachment coupling plate with the tilt movement so
that the upper edge of the plate leans forward.
• Drive the loader into the attachment
Step 3 :
• Lift the boom a little so that the attachment lifts off of the ground
• Pull the boom control lever to the left so that the lower edge
of the attachment coupling plate turns into the attachment
Step 4 :
• Lock the lockin pins manually or use the hydraulic locking.
•
Some attachments can be locked using the automatic return of the locking
pins. See operator’s manual of the attachment. If recommended, pull the boom
control lever more to the left so that attachment coupling plate turns more and
the brackets on the boom push the pins down in the holes of the attachment.
• Always make sure that both pins lock properly down in the holes of
the attachment!
Risk of dropping of an attachment - Make sure that the attachment is
properly connected on the attachment coupling plate. An attachment that
comes loose may tip over or fall on the loader, causing personal injuries.
Always ensure that both pins lock properly down in the holes of the
attachment. Never try to lock the locking pins by using the brackets on the
boom when the attachment is lifted over one meter from the ground. Do not
use the automatic locking with any attachment that has a moving linkage.
Check the locking of the pins before you drive with the loader, lift the loader
boom, or operate the attachment. Lock the locking pins manually if necessary.
Make sure that the attachment is locked to the loader
Hydraulic attachment coupling plate (option)
The hydraulic attachment coupling plate enables connecting and
disconnecting of the attachment from the driver’s seat. There
is a hydraulic cylinder on the attachment coupling plate which
moves the locking pins up and down. The electro-hydraulic
system works also when then engine is not running, as long as
the ignition switch is in “ON” position (current on). Control switch
is located at the control panel on the right (see page 24).
Risk of falling of attachment - Familiarize yourself with the controls of the loader. Avoid
dropping of the attachment. Operate the hydraulic coupling only when the attachment is close
to the ground. Always make sure that the locking pins are locked properly into the holes of the
attachments, also when using the hydraulic locking. Both pins must be locked.
Switch up:
Locking released
Switch down:
Locking position
Always read also the additional instructions for coupling and using
of the attachment in the Operator’s manual of the attachment.
Do not operate any attachment if you do not have its operator’s
manual available.
