3. Tilt the ROPS/FOPS up and back, moving
the control handles out of the way. Tilt the
ROPS/FOPS back slowly, until locking
mechanism (B, Figure 88) locks the
ROPS/FOPS in the raised position.
Note: A gas-charged spring helps balance
the ROPS/FOPS as it tilts. A self-actuating
lock mechanism engages to lock the
ROPS/FOPS in the tilted position.
Lowering the ROPS/FOPS
1. Lift the ROPS/FOPS slightly while pulling
lock mechanism release (C, Figure 89)
toward the front.
2. Lower the ROPS/FOPS slowly onto the
chassis, moving the control handles out of
the way.
3. Secure the ROPS/FOPS in the lowered
position with anchor hardware (A, Figure
87). Torque to 43 Nm (32 lb.-ft.).
Lifting the Machine
Use the following procedure to raise the skid-steer loader so all four tires are off the
ground for service:
Do not rely on a jack or hoist to hold the machine
in the lifted position without additional blocking
and supports. Serious personal injury could result from improperly
lifting or blocking the machine.
1. Use suitable blocks (solid wood, hard plastic or metal) or jackstands to properly block
the machine so all four tires are raised off the ground.
2. Using a jack or hoist with a capacity greater than the fully-equipped weight of the
machine (with all attached options), lift the rear of the loader until the rear tires are off
the ground.
