areas before hooking-up to grapple.
2. Unhook wire retaining pins and pull lower hitch pins
from Kubota B mount hitch.
3. Rotate top of loader hitch forward and lower loader
arms down until upper hitch hooks are in-alignment
with the grapple’s upper hitch pins.
4. Drive tractor slowly forward until upper hitch pins on
the grapple make contact with B mount upper hitch
hooks.
5. Slowly raise loader arms up while rotating top of
B mount back until the grapple’s upper hitch pins are
fully seated in the B mount upper hooks and hitch pin
spacers are seated against B mount saddle plates.
6. Raise grapple 2"-3" (5-8 cm) off the ground and
insert lower hitch pins. Secure hitch pins with wire
retaining pins. Make sure wire retainers are caught
