Skid Steer Hook-Up
Refer to Figure 1-3:
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
A crushing hazard exists while hooking-up and unhooking the
attachment. Do not allow anyone to stand between attachment
and power machine while approaching or backing away from
the attachment. Do not operate lift and/or tilt controls while
someone is near the power machine and/or attachment.
1. Drive the skid steer slowly to the Powered Rake
making sure the front hitch plate of the skid steer is
parallel with the Powered Rake hitch.
2. Tilt the top of the skid steer hitch plate slightly
forward.
3. Place the skid steer’s hitch plate top under the top
angled bar of the Powered Rake.
4. Slowly lift the skid steer’s hitch until the Powered
Rake’s hitch and the skid steer’s top angle bar have
come together.
5. Push lock handles of the skid steer down so that the
pins go through the bottom slots of the Powered
Rake’s hitch and the handles lock down.
6. Connect hydraulic hoses on Powered Rake to the
skid steer loader.

Hydraulic Hose Hook-up
Refer to Figure 1-5 on page 13:
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Make sure hydraulic hoses are properly routed without
twists to prevent becoming stretched, pinched, or kinked. A
damaged hose can burst and leak hydraulic fluid.

•
Hydraulic fluid under high pressure can penetrate the skin.
Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when
working with hydraulic systems. Use a piece of cardboard
or wood rather than hands when searching for hydraulic
leaks. If hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin or eyes, it
must be treated by a doctor familiar with this type of injury
within a few hours or gangrene may result. DO NOT
DELAY.
1. See your Skid Steer Operator’s Manual to determine
which coupler on your unit is under pressure when
unit is locked in continuous operation. If coupler (#4)
does not mate with your unit’s coupler that is under
pressure, then switch couplers (#3) and (#4) on
hydraulic lines (#2A & 2B).
2. Make certain both couplers (#3 & #4) are screwed on
tight.
3. Route hydraulic hoses (#2A & #2B) through the most
convenient path to access the skid steer power
equipment couplers.

4. Connect couplings (#3 & #4) to the skid steer high
pressure outlets.
5. Hydraulic hoses will be zip tied (#1) together after
installation of wiring harness (#10).
Continue with
“Electrical Control Harness
(Optional)” below.
NOTE: The preferred hose connections will allow
continues hydraulic flow for raking. Line (#2B) is the
pressure line for raking. Therefore, attach line (2B)
to the skid steer hydraulic line that is pressurized
when controls are locked for continuous operation
(continuous hydraulic flow).
NOTE: Refer to Figure 1-4 below for correct hose
routing when attaching the power rake to a Kubota
compact track loader or skid steer loader.
