1. Perform this procedure on a hard, level surface only.
Position the vehicle directly behind the attachment to
be mounted.
2. Tilt the quick attach backward.
3. Extend the boom approximately 10 ft (3,05 m) and drive
the vehicle forward until the attachment pivot pins are
below and between the two hooks on the attachment.
4. Raise the boom until the attachment pivot pins have
seated fully in the hooks on the attachment.
5. Tilt the attachment up slightly. The quick attach link
should be tight up against the rear of the attachment,
and the holes in the link and the attachment should
be aligned.
6. Place the travel select lever in the (N) NEUTRAL
position, place the neutral lock lever in the (N)
NEUTRAL LOCK position, engage the parking brake
switch, unbuckle the seat belt and exit the vehicle
using both hand holds.
7. Lift the quick attach lever. Insert the quick attach pin
completely through the attachment and the quick
attach link. Be sure that the quick attach lock lever
has lowered and seated itself into the groove in the
quick attach pin.

operation.

Use a brass punch and rawhide hammer to remove
the rod end pin (3) from the quick attach assembly.
