REAR DOOR LOCKS
Located on the inside of the left and right hand rear drive shaft brackets
are the rear door locks. These locks should be locked up against rear door
frame when forage box is being unloaded toward the front. (LOCK BEFORE
LOADING). Door locks must be unlocked (down position) when forage box
is being unloaded toward the rear. (UNLOCK BEFORE LOADING).

open to allow rear door to swing free. Upon completion of unloading check
rear door to insure that door latches are securely in place for next load.
