 

Move the tilt cylinder in until the quick coupler is at an angle of 30-45 degrees to the attachment frame 
on the tool (see illustration below). 

 

Hook the fingers at the front of the quick coupler onto the front attachment frame pin. 

 

Raise the attachment from the ground until it hangs freely. 

 

Move the tilt cylinder out, lowering the rear part of the quick coupler to the rear pin on the attachment. 

 

Disable the lock switch for the quick coupler. The light and the alarm both go off. 

 

Move the tilt cylinder to its end position, enabling pressure to build up and the H-cylinder to lock the 

attachment. At the same time any hydraulic and electric couplings in use are connected.
