3. Drive the tractor forward slowly until the top edge of the male quick attach is under the top hook of the
female quick attach already on the blade assembly.
4. Raise the lift system until the male quick attach engages the female. Continue to raise the lift system until
the blade is off the ground and the female quick attaches are against the front of the male quick attaches.
