WARNING
To prevent unexpected attachment release
from the Quick-Tach attachment, BE SURE to
properly secure the Quick-Tach mechanism
lock pins by rotating the latch lever all the way
to the left.
A field installed Quick-Tach attachment mechanism for
mounting a bucket or other attachment is available. A
single latch lever secures the attachment.
Attaching
1. Rotate the latch lever completely to the right (as
viewed from the operator’s compartment) to fully
retract the latch pins.
2. Start the loader engine and make sure the lift arm is
lowered and in contact with the loader frame.
3. Align the loader squarely with the back of the
attachment.
4. Roll the Quick-Tach mechanism forward until the
mating parts of the mechanism are in-line with and
slightly below the hooks on the back of the
attachment.
5. Slowly drive the loader forward and, at the same
time, roll the Quick-Tach mechanism back to
engage the hooks on the attachment.
6. Stop forward travel when the hooks are engaged but
continue to roll the Quick-Tach mechanism back to
pick the attachment up off the ground. Exercise the
MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN
PROCEDURE (page 10).
7. With the loader engine OFF, leave the operator’s
compartment, and swing the latch lever completely
to the left (as viewed from the operator’s
compartment) to fully engage the latch pins.
8. To check that the attachment is properly installed,
apply down pressure to the attachment prior to
operating.
Detaching
1. Roll the Quick-Tach mechanism backward until the
attachment is off the ground. Exercise the
MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN
PROCEDURE (page 10).
2. With the loader engine OFF, leave the operator’s
compartment and rotate the latch lever completely
to the right (as viewed from the operator’s
compartment) to fully retract the latch pins.
3. Start the loader engine and make sure that the lift
arm is lowered and in contact with the loader frame.
4. Roll the Quick-Tach mechanism forward and
slowly back the loader until the attachment is free
from the loader.
Self-Leveling
Skid loaders are provided with a hydraulic self-leveling
feature. This feature is designed to keep the attachment
level while the lift arm is being raised.
