Detaching
To detach the attachment tool, proceed as follows:
1. Raise the boom slightly and extend it two to three
feet (600 to 900 mm) for better visibility. Lower
the boom until the attachment tool is approximate-
ly 12” (0.3 m) off the ground.
2. Tilt the carrier rearward as far as it will go. Once
the carrier is tilted back all the way, perform the
Mandatory Safety Shutdown Procedure (Safety
chapter, page 8).
3. With the engine off, leave the operator’s station
and manually raise the lock spring and flip the lock
plate up and outward at least 180° so it is in posi-
tion to re-lock onto the next attachment tool.
4. Tilt the Quick-attach
™
System forward to allow
the attachment tool to roll out, then lower the boom
so that the hook ears clear the hookup bar on the
attachment tool.
NOTE: One side of the lock plate has a bright red
decal to indicate the unlocked position.
5. If the attachment tool has auxiliary hydraulics, dis-
connect the hoses from the quick-disconnects on
the boom nose.
6. Start the engine and roll the Quick-attach
™
System
forward. Slowly back the machine until the attach-
ment tool is free from the boom nose.
SELF-LEVELING
The machine is equipped with a hydraulic self-leveling
feature. This feature is designed to keep the attachment
tool level while the boom is being raised.
