4. 2 SERVICE ACCESS
1. Lift Arm Support
For safety while performing regular service or
maintenance work, the loader is equipped with lift arm
support pins. The lift arm support pins when extended
prevent the lift arms from dropping if hydraulic pressure is
relieved or the hydraulic controls are accidentally cycled.
To operate the lift arm support, first remove any bucket or
attachment from the quick-tach; raise the lift arms to full
height. Raise the lift arm support handle (Fig. 4.2A) up and
push out toward lift arms to extend the lift arm supports.
(Fig. 4.2B) Slowly lower the lift arms down on to the pins.
To retract the lift arm supports, lift the lift arms off of the
pins before retracting pins.
2. Seat Removal
The seat assembly can be removed to provide access to the
controls, hydraulic and hydrostatic components. To
remove the seat assembly, remove the fasteners located at
the front of the seat. DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL
PLUG! Lift the seat assembly out of the machine. When
installing the seat, be sure the seat plate is locked in place
at the rear (Fig. 4.2C).
3. Battery Access
The battery is located in a compartment found behind the
operators seat (Fig. 4.2D). Remove the seat and remove
the bolt holding the battery cover in place. The battery
compartment is hinged with a prop rod to hold open.
Fully retract lift support
pins before raising or
lowering lift arms.
IMPORTANT
To avoid personal injury:
Do not leave lift arms up
unless the lift arm
supports are engaged.
