Sideshifter Removal
1. Carefully remove forks from the sideshifter.
2. Remove the backrest from the sideshifter. For re-
assembly, tighten the cap screws to 195 Nm 
(1726 in lb).
Avoid high pressure fluids - escaping fluids under pres-
sure can penetrate the skin, causing serious injury. Re-
lieve pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines. 
Tighten all connections before applying pressure. 
Keep hands and body away from pin holes which eject 
fluids under high pressure. Use a piece of cardboard or 
paper to search for leaks. Do not use your hand.
Any fluid injected into the skin under high pressure 
should be considered a serious medical emergency 
despite an initial normal appearance of the skin. There 
is a delayed onset of pain, and serious tissue damage 
may occur. Medical attention should be sought imme-
diately from a specialist who has experience with this 
type of injury.
3. Make sure all hydraulic pressure has been re-
moved from the attachment hydraulic system, and 
disconnect the hoses from the cylinder. Tagout 
hoses for reassembly.
4. If servicing the hydraulic cylinder, loosen the seal 
carriers before removing the sideshifter. For reas-
sembly, tighten seal carriers to 165 Nm 
(1460 in lb).
5. Remove the lower mounting hooks and inspect for 
wear. Replace if past wear limit mark (refer to Fig-
ure 16964).
