Mounting Loader to Tractor
To avoid injury during installation of quick attach loader, an overhead hoist must be used for
initial mounting, do not permit bystanders within ten feet of loader. Parking stands are not
operational without bucket or heavy attachment mounted. Bale spear or pallet fork alone do
not provide enough weight.

arms and slowly raise loader with overhead
hoist until loader uprights are slightly higher
than mounts on the tractor. Make sure loader is
centered with the tractor.
2. Start tractor, release brakes, and drive tractor
forward until mounts are touching. Engage
brakes and shut off tractor.
3. With overhead hoist, lower loader until loader
upright mounted are seated in saddle of tractor
mounts. Connect hydraulic hoses to correct
ports. See Chart below.
4. Start tractor and extend lift cylinders, rotating
the loader upright until the lower connector pin
holes line up with holes in tractor mount. Shut
off tractor and engage brakes. Insert both lower
connection pins and safety lynch pins.
