tem
Fastening the bucket
1 Position the excavating equipment to the bucket to be installed
(Fig. A).
2 Align the tapered pins on the equipment carrier to the fitting
groove on the bucket (Fig. B).
3 Extend the dipper arm (Fig. C).
4 Once the tapered pin is located in the fitting groove the attach-
ment carrier automatically locks the bucket.
Removing the bucket
The bucket is removed outside the machine with the help of a me-
tal bar (1) (part of the on-board equipment), which is used to ope-
rate the releasing mechanism on the interlocking plate (4).
1 Position the quick release device under an angle of 90°.
2 Position the bucket 10 cm above the ground.
3 Position the bar (1) on the welded bolt (2) or (depending on the
machine type) in the opening (3) and pull the lever to unlock
the plate (4).
WARNING!
Check whether the attachment is properly locked and secu-
red by pressing it against the ground, so that the machine
slightly lifted.
WARNING!
Keep your feet out of the danger zone of the bucket. If the
attachment does not stand firmly without any additional
supports, it must be properly secured before unlocking,
thus to prevent others from being hurt.
