Lift Arm Brace Installation
The lift arm brace (A) is intended
to keep service personnel safe
when it is necessary to work on
a machine with the lift arms in
the raised position. It is not safe
to rely on the hydraulic system
to hold the lift arms in the raised
position just as it is not safe to
crawl under a machine support-
ed only by a jack. The lift arm
brace is used to support the
weight of the lift arms much like
jack stands are used to mechan-
ically support vehicle weight.
To install the lift arm brace:
1.
Park the machine on level
ground in a safe area for
performing service work.
2.
Remove any attachments
that may be fastened to the
quick attach.
3.
Have an assistant remove
the retaining pins (B)
securing the lift arm brace
and removeit from the
machine.
4.
Make sure bystanders are
clear of the lift arms, then
raise them to the upper limit.
5.
Have an assistant Install the
brace around the cylinder
shaft as shown and reinstall
the pins to secure it to the
cylinder.
6.
Lower the lift arms slowly
until they come to rest on
the brace.
7.
It is now safe to shut the
engine off and exit the
machine.
To remove the lift arm brace:
1.
Start the machine and raise
the lift arms until they are
clear of the brace.
2.
Once clear, have an assis-
tant remove the brace from
the cylinder and stow it on
the machine with the pins.
3.
Once the brace has been
stowed and the assistant is
clear of the lift arms, lower
the arms to the ground and
shut the engine off to com-
plete the procedure.

B
