5.1.3. Mounting the valve support bracket
The backhoe can be operated from two operating positions. The control valves are mounted to the loader so
that it can be operated by standing next to the loader, or the valve may be mounted on the loader boom to
be operated from the driver’s seat. To mount the valve on the loader boom, an assembly kit must be
mounted on the boom. The assembly kit can be left on the boom for easier attachment of the backhoe the
next time it is used.
To make it easier to mount the assembly kit, lift the
loader boom and mount the service support of the
loader boom. Take up the items shown in the
adjacent figure.
Use the service support of the
loader boom during installing of the
valve mounting bracket.
.
Remove the pin holding screw from the
upper end of the loader boom, shown
in the left figure.
Mount the holding bracket on the boom
and replace the removed screw with
the longer screw provided with the kit.
When the holding bracket is in its place, tighten the
screws on the right side of the bracket against the
laoder boom.
Do not overtighten the screws!
Fit the valve holder to the holding bracket as
shown in figure below.
