serious injury or death.
Always ensure the attachment is properly secured
by pressing the front part of the attachment to the
ground until the machine is slightly lifted.
The attachment quick coupler consists of flat
mounting plates which are attached to the end of
dipper arm and bucket link. There are two hooks (E)
on the plate for the pins (B) on the bucket.
There is a lift hook (C) on the attachment quick
coupler (optional).
The attachment quick coupler is equipped with a
double-acting hydraulic cylinder. The quick
coupler’s lock wedge (D) is fitted to its piston rod.
Servo pressure acts on the piston of the lock
cylinder, locking the bucket in place against bucket
pin (B). This means that the lock wedge adjusts
itself and provides gap-free locking.
