3.After connecting hoses, check that all control lever positions function as instructed in this Operator’s Manual. Do not operate until control lever and equipment movements are correct.

PREPARATION

1.Check that all hardware is tight and properly installed. Always tighten to torque specifications as instructed in this manual.

2.Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic operation and allows loads or equipment components to drop unexpectedly.

3.Before operating or allowing anyone to approach the equipment, purge any air in the system by operating all hydraulic functions several times after connecting equipment, connecting hoses, or doing any hydraulic maintenance.

4.After connecting hoses, check that all control lever positions function as Instructed in this Operator’s Manual. Do not operate until control lever and equipment movements are correct.

5.Protective sleeves must be over hydraulic hoses and securely fastened onto metal hose fittings as described in this manual. Replace if damaged or if protective sleeve is not properly positioned or secured.

6.Make sure all hydraulic hoses, fittings and valves are in good condition and not leaking before starting power unit or using equipment. Check and route hoses carefully to prevent damage. Hoses must not be twisted, bent sharply, kinked, frayed, pinched, or come into contact with any moving parts. Operate moveable components through full operational range to check clearances. Replace any damaged hoses immediately.

7.Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing and head.

8.Avoid injury or death. Never work under a raised loader.

Always lower loader to the ground with bucket or loader attachment in full roll-back position. Operate valve levers to release any hydraulic pressure. If loader obstructs tractor maintenance, loader must be removed from tractor.
