Float Control
Dual joystick and hand/foot loaders use the left button on the right control handle
for shifting between normal mode and float mode. For T-Bar loaders push the
right control handle fully forward to detent the float control. This mode allows
the lowered lift arm to follow the ground contour while traveling over changing
ground conditions. For dual joystick and hand/foot loaders, press and hold the
button for three seconds or longer to detent, and press again to deactivate. For T-
bar loaders, pull the right control handle rearward to deactivate. The float mode
is automatically deactivated when the machine is shut off.
Attachment Mounting
The skid-steer loader is equipped with either the standard manual
All-Tach
®
hitch or optional Power-A-Tach
®
hitch for mounting a bucket or other
attachments (Figure 8).
All-Tach
®
Hitch
A manual latch lever engages the latch
pins. While standing outside the machine,
rotate the lever all the way to the left to
engage the latch pins. Rotate the lever (as
viewed from the front) all the way to the
right to disengage the latch pins. (Refer to
page 51 for more information.)
To prevent unexpected release of the attach-
ment from the hitch, be sure to secure the
latch pins by rotating the lever all the way to the hitch.
Power-A-Tach
®
System
A three-position momentary rocker switch is used to operate the Power-A-Tach
System hitch. The Power-A-Tach System is equipped with a warming circuit.
The warming circuit reduces the amount of time required to operate the hydraulic
cylinder. It is recommended to use this circuit when the temperature is below
32°F (0°C), see the Cold-Starting Procedure on page 48. Continuous use of the
warming circuit is recommended when the temperature is below 0° F (-18° C).
The hitch will not operate if the parking brake switch is activated or if the
restraint bar is in its vertical (open) position. (Refer to page 51 for more informa-
tion.)
To retract the hitch pins:
Press up and hold the switch until the pins are fully retracted on the Power-A-
Tach switch in the right instrument panel. The switch will return to neutral
(middle position) when released.
