Attachment quick coupler, E14-E48
WARNING
Risk of crushing.
Falling attachments could result in severe injury or
death.
Make sure the attachment bracket is properly
locked before starting work.
WARNING
Risk of crushing.
An unsecured attachment could fall and cause
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 is equipped with dual
automatic locking system. The hook for gripping the
attachment is fitted to its piston rod. The hydraulic
system's pressure acts on the lock cylinder's piston,
locking the attachment in place against the rear
bucket pin. This means that the hook adjusts itself
and provides gap-free locking.
When checking from the cab if the attachment quick
coupler is locked or unlocked, visually check that
the front lock device is fully engaged and then
slowly curl out the bucket/attachment and dipper
arm.
By means of a lifting device such as an eye and
hook, the machine can be used for lifting
operations. Since the lifting device is located on the
attachment quick coupler, it can be used without a
bucket. This improves visibility for the operator and
increases the maximum permissible load.
