For instructions about use and how to connect or
disconnect the extra hydraulic couplings, see page
59.

The extra outlet is controlled with its own, 2
direction control lever on the right from the
driver's seat.

Release the lever to neutral position to stop the
attachment.

Test the operation of the attachment after each
time it is coupled to the loader. The quick
couplings can be coupled in a way that reverses
the function of the control lever.

Both the front and rear hydraulics can be
operated simultaneously.

Keep the couplings clean and use their
protective covers.
Rear lift device
A rear lift device makes it possible to mount and use
some attachments at the back of the loader. The rear
lift device is designed to be used when another
attachment is mounted on the loader boom to
maintain the balance of the loader. For example, a
sand spreader may be mounted to the rear lift device
when a snow plow or a snow blower is mounted to
the loader boom.
WARNING
Risk of loss of control - Heavy
attachment at the rear lift device
may cause the loader to tip
rearwards. Keep an attachment
mounted on the boom to
balance the weight at the rear lift
device.
Remove attachment from
the rear lift device before
uncoupling the attachment from
the loader boom. Follow the
manual of the rear lift device, and
the operator's manuals of
attachments.
The rear lift device includes hydraulic quick couplings
for rear mounted attachment. Also, if the attachment
control switch pack for rear mounted attachments is
installed, a socket for it is included.
Counterweight mounting plate for
rear lift device
When using the rear lift device, the counterweight
can be installed to the mounting plate. With the
mounting plate it is easy to attach the counterweight
to the rear lift device. Mounting plate also makes the
removal of the counterweight easy.
Reverse buzzer (option)
A reverse buzzer gives an audible signal whenever
reversing with the loader. This alarms others of an
approaching machine. Always ensure good visibility
from the driver's seat and look before you reverse
with the loader - the buzzer itself does not prevent
accidents.
