Attachment Installation and Removal
Attachment Lock Pins
The mounting plate located at the front of the machine provides for the easy installation and
safe use of the wide variety of available attachments. This system is very easy to use, but
requires the proper use of the attachment lock pins. There are two positions for the attachment
lock pins, the unlocked position and the locked position.
Once the machine has picked up an attachment, shut off the engine and rotate the attachment
locks into the “locked” position (Item 1, Figure 3–19). As you rotate the lock pin, it will drop
downwards, securing the attachment to the machine. If the lock pin does not drop into the
locked position, start the engine and either raise or lower the attachment slightly until the lock
pins snap into place.
Figure 3–19 Attachment Locks in Locked Position
Until the attachment lock pins are fully in the locked position, the attachment has not
been safely secured to the machine. Do not stand near the attachment until it is fully
secured to the machine.
To release an attachment, rotate the attachment locks to the “unlocked” position (Item 1, Figure
3–20). The lock pins will automatically rise, releasing the attachment from the machine. If the
pins do not release the attachment or are very hard to rotate, start the engine and tilt the
attachment slightly forwards or backwards until the pins can be rotated.
