Carefully move and align the quick attach coupler to
the bucket or attachment. The top of the quick attach
coupler must completely engage the attachment or
bucket hook, Figure 2.

plers (optional).

LOADER OPERATION
Do not allow bystanders in the area when oper-
ating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servic-
ing equipment.
The loader should be operated with the tractor engine
running at a safe RPM. Excessive speeds are danger-
ous, and may cause bucket spillage and unnecessary
strain on the tractor and loader.
