IMPORTANT
Never allow weight of tractor to be placed on
parking stands when mounting or dismounting
loader.
A. Position the loader on a hard level surface.
The more level the surface, the easier the loader is
to mount and dismount.
B. Raise loader, dump bucket over, and then
lower loader so that bucket cutting edge is approxi-
mately 1/2” off of surface.
C. Remove parking stands from their storage
positions in the boom crosstube as shown in Figure
2-8.
D. Position parking stands in attaching brackets
on inside of each loader arm and secure. Figure 2-9.
E. Dismounting procedures will be the reverse of
the mounting procedure.
F. Rollback bucket slightly while lowering loader
boom down until the parking stands make firm con-
tact with ground. Dump bucket until bucket touches
the surface.
NOTE
Driving the tractor forward slowly while position-
ing loader will allow parking stands to contact
ground firmly.

G. Retract loader lift cylinders
H. Slowly rollback bucket while driving slightly
forward with tractor. Doing this will allow mounting
brackets to guide loader as loader is being parked
off of tractor.
I. Rollback bucket completely. Make sure all loader
components clear tractor. Stop the tractor engine and
then work valve control lever/levers to relieve hydraulic
fluid pressure in lines. Refer to tractor operator manual
for additional information.
J. Disconnect loader hoses from quick couplers.
Start tractor and slowly back tractor away from loader.
