Operation
Pre-Operation
The following pictorials indicate important precautions to be used during the operation of the
loader.
WARNING
The tractor must be equipped with an approved Roll
over Protection Structure (ROPS) and safety belts to help prevent
personal injury or death caused by tractor roll over.
CAUTION
Maximum rated loader capacity may exceed tractor
rating. Load restrictions or reduction in hydraulic operating
pressure may be required for safe operation. Torque all fittings
and hoses prior to operating loader. Ensure hoses do not rub or
pinch during loader operation. Ty-rap as required.
WARNING
Add rear ballast to help prevent personal injury or death
caused by tractor roll over.
Rops: Do not exceed the manufacturer’s rating for maximum gross vehicle weight. Refer to the
Tractor Manual or the ROPS Serial Decal for rating. Do not alter or modify the ROPS structure.
Tractor Tires: Space rear tires as recommended by the tractor manufacturer. Tire inflation and
capacity must meet or exceed additional weight of loader, attachment and payload. Maximize
width for high lift applications. Tread width must not exceed maximum width as recommended in
the Mounting Kit Listing.
Rear Ballast: Rear ballast is required to ensure 25% of gross vehicle weight is transferred to the
rear axle. Attachment and load must be included as weight. Adequate rear weights are required
to counterbalance maximum loader capacity and safe loader operation. Weight can be added as
rear tire liquid (calcium solution), rear wheel weights, rear axle weights and/or three point hitch
mounted ballast or implement. Ballasting will vary with tractor and loader attachment. Refer to
the Tractor Manual for recommended ballasting.
