Placing Boom Articulating Arm on Boom Arm Rest
• Extend the dipper section approximately half
way out.
• Then pull the second (Lift) back toward the
operator lifting the arm about 3/4 (three-
fourths) of the way up.
• After this position is accomplished, pull the
first handle (Swing) back toward the operator
until the arm has swung over the rest located
on the ROPS near the top.
• Now by operating the second handle (Lift)
and/or the third handle (Dipper) lower the arm
onto the rest.
• There is a formed “V” plate on the dipper
section of the arm that fits onto the rest.

Before transporting the tractor on a public roadway
or boarding a trailer for transport, the tractor brake
pedals should be locked together. Locking the
pedals ensures that both wheels brake
simultaneously while stopping, especially when
making an emergency stop.
Use extreme caution and avoid hard applications of
the tractor brakes when towing heavy loads at road
speeds. Never tow the implement at speeds
greater than 20 MPH (32 kph). OPS-U- 0018
