Mounting Loader
Position loader uprights so midmounting tubes are tight against hinges until loader has
finished rotating so loader yoke cross-tube does not hit lower flange of front mounting
channel. Maintain gap between cut-outs in loader uprights and midmounting tubes until
loader yoke cross-tube contacts upper flange of front mounting channel (Figure Asm-L-
0032).
Be sure to use flex-lock nut to clamp hinge. Tighten flex-lock nut against hinge securely, but
to no more than 125 ft./lbs. of torque.
Mounting is basically reverse of dismounting.
1. Slowly drive tractor up to loader until hoses will
reach from loader to tractor. Engage tractor
brakes and shut off tractor engine.
2. Connect quick couplers between tractor and
loader, matching color coded bands.
Note: Make sure quick couplers are clean, and
make sure hinges are fully open.
3. Start tractor engine and release tractor brakes.
Slowly drive tractor ahead while activating lift
control lever to extend or retract lift cylinders,
positioning tractor so hinges hook midmounting
bracket tubes as loader side frame uprights
rotate.
Note: Maintain clearance between side frames
and tractor hood and front axle when mounting
loader.
4. Put tractor in neutral. Retract lift cylinders
bringing side frame channels up so front yoke
tube contacts front mounting top flange. Move
tractor ahead so front yoke tube engages in
front mounting bracket channel and loader side
frame uprights seat properly on midmounting
bracket tubes (with no gap between upright cut-
out and front of tube). Engage tractor brakes
and shut off tractor engine.
5. Clamp hinge around midmounting tube using 3/
4 washer and flex-lock nut.
6. Loop hoses through hose support bracket on
front mounting bracket.
7. Loop one rubber tie strap around hoses and hook on yoke to keep tension on hoses. Secure hoses to
loader right side frame using other rubber tie strap (Figure Asm-L-0033).
