Picking up an attachment
Caution!
Personal injury or equipment damage hazards. An improperly connected
attachment can detach or fall unexpectedly.
• Before connecting an attachment, clear all personnel from the work
area.
• Make sure the attachment is mounted correctly and fully functional
before operating. Test the functionality with a short and rapid succession
of stick and bucket movements as close as possible to the ground.
• Never operate an attachment with a malfunctioning lock.
Important!
For system-specific reasons, the hydraulic quickhitch opens and closes with the
functions “Stabilizer blade”, “Auxiliary hydraulics”, “Boom swivel”, “3rd control cir-
cuit (option)” and “Rotate upper carriage”.
While connecting attachments, only use the function “Raise stabilizer blade”
to open or close!
