Skid Steer Hook-Up
!
CAUTION!
Do not stand between the skid steer loader and implement
during hookup.
1. After assembling the backhoe to the skid steer hitch
plate, drive the skid steer slowly to the backhoe hitch
making sure the front hitch plate of the skid steer is
parallel with the hitch of the backhoe.
2. The top of the hitch plate of the skid steer should be
tilted slightly forward.
3. Place the top of the skid steer’s hitch plate under the
top angled bar of the hitch plate.
4. Slowly lift the skid steer’s hitch until the hitch of the
backhoe and the skid steer’s hitch have come
together.
5. Push the lock handles of the skid steer down so that
the pins go through the slots at the bottom of the
backhoe’s hitch and the handles lock down.
6. Connect hydraulic hoses on backhoe to the skid steer
loader.
!
WARNING!
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate skin. Wear
protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working
with hydraulic systems. Use a piece of cardboard or wood
rather than hands when searching for hydraulic leaks. If
hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin, it must be surgically
removed within a few hours by a doctor or gangrene may result.
