SAFETY
Read and understand all the safety messages listed in this manual. For your safety and
the safety of others near the machine, learn how to control and operate the loader
properly. It is your responsibility to inform subsequent operators and owners of these
precautions.
General Safety Notes:
Improper use of the loader and tractor can cause serious injury or death.
Operate the loader while seated in the tractor seat only.
Keep the work area clear of other persons.
Never leave the tractor unattended while the attachment is raised. Always lower the
attachment to ground and shut tractor off before leaving the tractor seat.
Never work beneath a raised loader unless it is securely supported. The control
lever can be moved or a hydraulic leak could cause the loader to drop resulting in
serious injury or death. Refer to the Lift Lock Instructions Decal for proper use of the
lift locks.
Prior to use, check to ensure the attachment is properly locked to the quick-tach.
Verify from tractor seat by lowering the attachment to the ground and retracting the
lift cylinders.
Never operate loader with frayed or damaged hoses or leaking fittings. A burst
could cause the loader to drop suddenly and result in serious injury or death and
cause damage to the loader or tractor.
Keep tractor on solid ground when raising loader. Loose fill rocks and holes can be
dangerous for loader operation and movement.
If for some reason, you feel the tractor tipping, immediately lower the loader.
A pivoting front axle acts like a three-wheeled tractor until the stops hit the axle.
Space rear tires as recommended by the tractor manufacturer. Maximize width for
high lift applications and uneven terrain.
Add rear ballast as required to ensure 25% of gross vehicle weight is transferred to
the rear axle. Loader, attachment and payload must be included as weight.
Do not raise attachment to extreme heights while tractor is on an incline. Be alert for
terrain changes and adjust accordingly. Keep attachment at low travel height, no
more than one foot, as long as possible.
Allow for attachment and loader length when turning.
The tractor must be equipped with an approved Roll Over Protection Structure
(ROPS) and safety belts.
Use proper lighting and safety warnings when transporting equipment on public
roads and during darkness. The Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) emblem must be
visible. Check with your local Law Enforcement Agency for specific requirements.

PRE – OPERATION
WARNING The tractor must be equipped with an approved Roll
over Protection Structure (ROPS) and safety belts to help prevent personal injury
or death caused by tractor roll over.
CAUTION Maximum rated loader capacity may exceed tractor
rating. Load restrictions or reduction in hydraulic operating pressure may be
required for safe operation.
Rops: Do not exceed the manufacturer’s rating for maximum gross vehicle
weight. Refer to the Tractor Manual or the ROPS Serial Decal for rating. Do not
alter or modify the ROPS structure.
Tractor Tires: Space rear tires as recommended by the tractor manufacturer.
Tire inflation and capacity must meet or exceed additional weight of loader,
attachment and payload. Maximize width for high lift applications. Tread width
must not exceed maximum width as recommended in the Mounting Kit Listing.
WARNING Add rear ballast to help prevent personal injury or death
caused by tractor roll over.
Rear Ballast: Rear ballast is required to ensure 25% of gross vehicle weight is
transferred to the rear axle. Attachment and load must be included as weight.
Adequate rear weights are required to counterbalance maximum loader capacity
and safe loader operation. Weight can be added as rear tire liquid (calcium
solution), rear wheel weights, rear axle weights and/or three point hitch mounted
ballast or implement. Ballasting will vary with tractor and loader attachment.
Refer to the Tractor Manual for recommended ballasting.

OPERATION
General Operating Notes: The following section provides general
information that can be applied towards your specific application. Ensure that
you’ve read and understood this manual and your Tractor Manual. Observe all
safety precautions and follow local laws pertaining to the use of your loader and
tractor.
Hydraulics: Under normal conditions, operate the tractor’s engine at ½ throttle.
Note: In cold weather, tractors with load sense hydraulic systems require longer
warm-up periods for the loader to respond when valve is operated.
In cold weather, operate the tractor’s engine at idle speed until the hydraulic fluid
is warmed up. Slowly cycle the loader and attachment several times to further
warm the hydraulic fluid. High engine speed when the hydraulic fluid is cold will
cause the pump to wear prematurely and may cause the loader to operate
erratically.
The hydraulic hoses should be connected to
the loader valve such that pushing forward on
handles lowers the loader or dumps the
attachment. When using the Allied Remote
Hydraulic Control pushing forward should
lower the loader while pushing directly right
should dump the attachment.
The Allied Remote Hydraulic Control is
equipped with a momentary push button
switch and a lock. The push button is for
operating a third function when an electric
diverter is installed. The third function is
normally for operating a grapple. When the
button is depressed the valve ports are open
to the grapple cylinders. Shifting the joystick
to the left while button is depressed will close
the grapple and shifting to the right will open.
IMPORTANT: Always feather the grapple
when closing or opening to avoid
unnecessary shock loads on grapple
components.
WARNING
Keep grapple closed at all times when bucket
is empty and carry bucket low to the ground.
Avoid operating near power wires.

Allied Front-End Loader
All Buhler-Allied hydraulic valves are self-centering and return to neutral from all
positions except float. The float or detent spool is only to be used on the boom
circuit. This position allows the oil to freely flow through the valve so the lift
cylinders can extend or retract. It can be engaged by slightly pushing control
beyond full lower. Float will allow for the loader to lower and rise as the
attachment follows the ground contours. To disengage float, slightly pull control
back towards the neutral position. The Allied Remote Hydraulic Control can be
locked in the neutral position to minimize unintentional movement.
CAUTION Lower and dump heavy loads slowly by feathering.
Stop tractor movement gradually. Never drop a loaded attachment and “catch”
hydraulically. Stopping with such downward momentum may cause damage to
the loader or tractor.
When handling heavy loads be sure to raise and lower the loader slowly while
leveling the attachment as required. Feathering can assist in accurately
controlling operations by regulating oil flow through cylinders.
A third function hydraulic control is available for grapple or other hydraulic
applications. An optional divertor valve is connected to the loader attachment
spool and is operated via the Allied Remote Hydraulic Control momentary switch
and simultaneously engaging the bucket spool through dump or rollback.
Bucket:
When loading a bucket, approach straight
and enter the pile with a level bucket parallel
to the line of motion.
IMPORTANT: Attempting to turn while
loading may cause damage to the loader or
tractor.
Work controls to raise and rollback the bucket
simultaneously. The combined actions of lift
and bucket cylinders increases loading
efficiency and minimizes resistance to lift.
NOTE: On tractors with low hydraulic oil
flows, both functions may not be possible
- 12 - P4094
bühler
Allied Front-End Loader
Minimize turning angle and length of run
between pile and trailer to increase loading
efficiency. Also, place load evenly or
centered in the attachment.
WARNING Carry the load no
higher than necessary to clear the terrain.
Turn and brake slowly. Always be sure that
loading area is level and on solid ground. Do
not raise loader higher then required while
dumping. Immediately lower the loader to
ground if the tractor becomes unstable.
Leave material, which drifts over the bucket
sides for final cleanup.
Backfilling or Scraping:
For forward back filling, approach pile with a
level bucket. Utilize the float position to
minimize bucket cutting edge wear. Leave
dirt in bucket. Dumping on each pass
reduces efficiency.
NOTE: Use leveling rod for a guide to
ensure bucket is level.
Do not use bucket in dumped position for
forward grading. This will only impose
severe shock loading on the bucket cylinders
and it is difficult to maintain a level grade.
