5. Connecting the Lawn Mower to the loader
Attaching the attachment to the loader is quick and easy, but it must be done carefully. The attachment is
mounted to the loader boom by using the quick attach plate on the loader boom and the counterpart on the
attachment.
If the attachment is not locked to the loader, it may detach from the loader and cause a hazardous situation.
The loader must not be driven and the boom must never be lifted when the attachment has not been locked.
To prevent hazardous situations, always follow the coupling procedure shown below. Also remember the
safety instructions shown in Chapter 3. The attachment is mounted to the loader as follows:
Make sure that an unlocked attachment will not move or fall over. Do not stay in the
are between the attachment and the loader. Mount the attachment only on level
surface.
Never move or lift an attachment that has not been locked.

Step 1:

Lift the quick attach plate locking pins up and turn
them backwards into the slot so that they are
locked in the upper position.

If your loader is equipped with a hydraulic
attachment
locking system, see additional
instructions about the use of the locking system
from the relevant manuals.

Ensure that the hydraulic hoses (and the electric
harness, if applicable) are not in the way during
installation.
Step 2:

Turn the quick attach plate hydraulically to an
obliquely forward position.

Drive the loader onto the attachment. If your
loader is equipped with a telescopic boom, you
can utilise this.

Align the upper pins of the loader’s quick coupling
plate so that they are under the corresponding
brackets of the attachment.
