Fork Adjustment
Refer to Figure 2-1:
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always adjust pallet forks an equal distance away from the
center and as far apart as the pallet will allow. This will
optimize load stability, protect against load shifting, and make
handling the load safer.
CAUTION
!
To avoid minor or moderate injury:
A pinching hazard exists when repositioning forks. Do not
place hands or fingers between carrying bars and forks.
1. Locate skid steer/tractor and pallet fork on a flat level
surface. Place transmission in park or set park brake.
2. Rotate dump cylinders to tilt front of forks slightly
lower at the front than at the back and lower loader
arms until forks are slightly above ground surface.
3. Place transmission in park, set park brake, shut
power equipment off and remove switch key.
4. Rotate locking handle (#1A) straight up.
5. Slide pallet fork (#1) to the optimized load carrying
width by pushing or pulling on the fork near the
carrying bars. Be sure to position locking pin (#1A)
directly over one of the five notches in the upper
carrying bar.
6. Lower locking handle (#1A) to seat locking pin in the
selected notch.
•
Check locking pin to be sure it has seated.
•
Check retaining hooks to be sure they are secured
behind upper and lower carrying bars.
7.
Repeat steps 1 to 6 for fork (#2). Make sure both
forks are an equal number of notches away from the
middle of the upper carrying bar.
Land Pride Center Logo Placement
Refer to Figure 2-2:
The Land Pride logo can be lowered or removed if an
opening is needed for accessing the skid steer cab or if
the loader’s center hydraulic cylinder interferes with the
Land Pride logo.
1. Remove whiz nuts (#3) and bolts (#2).
2. Move Land Pride Logo (#1) down to the four lower
mounting holes and reattach with existing
3/8"-16 x 1" GR5 hex flange bolts (#2) and whiz
nuts (#3). Tighten nuts to the correct torque. Remove
logo and store for safe keeping if lower location also
interferes.
NOTE:
Forks will adjust easier if glide surfaces are
kept lubricated. See
on page 17 for lubricating instructions.
