58025 Hose Kit
Verification of Control Movements
1. Mount loader to tractor: Remove mount pins
from loader uprights. Align tractor with loader and
slowly drive tractor into loader. Shut off tractor.
2. Connect loader feedline hoses to tractor remote
hydraulic couplers. See Figure 12.
NOTE: At least 6" spacing should be maintained
between valve, bracket, or hoses and any tractor
control (brake pedals, accelerator, hand throttle,
or hydraulic levers).
3. Comply with all Safety Rules and start the tractor.
4. Mount loader to tractor by activating bucket cylin-
ders to raise or lower the loader uprights into the
loader mounts. Slowly advance tractor forward,
activating appropriate cylinders to engage loader
completely into mounts. Insert mounting pins to
secure loader.
5. Check that all hydraulic control lever positions
operate the loader movements correctly as
shown in Figure 15.
6. If loader movements do not respond correctly,
shut off tractor, relieve pressure, and reconnect
properly. Loader control movements must be cor-
rect before proceeding.
7. Once all loader functions are correct, start the
tractor and operate the loader to check for leaks.
Purge any remaining air from the hydraulic sys-
tem.
8. When hose routings and correct loader opera-
tions are verified, identify each circuit by placing a
matching colored band around the male and
female quick-disconnect coupler set. The colored
bands will make re-installation easier when the
loader is removed from the tractor.
9. Be sure that adequate slack is left in the hoses so
they can move as the loader moves through its
full range of motion.
10. Attach plastic tie straps every 20" around the
hoses to keep them tightly bound and away from
contact with the ground or other moving parts on
tractor.
11. Before operating the loader, make sure that the
Pre-Delivery, Delivery, and Pre-Operation Check-
lists in the Loader Operator’s Manual have been
completed.
