SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
PREPERATION
19. Move the wheels to the tractor manufacturer’s widest recommended settings to increase stability.
20. For better stability, always use a tractor equipped with a wide front axle, never use a tractor equipped with a
tricycle type front axle.
21. Add rear ballast or rear weight to the tractor to compensate for the load and increase stability.
22. Add recommended rear tire liquid weight or rear wheel weights for increased stability.
23. Do not modify, alter, or permit anyone else to modify or alter the loader, any of its components, or any loader
function without first consulting a Mahindra dealer.
24. Assemble, remove, and reinstall the loader only as directed in this manual. Failure to do this could result in
serious personal injury or death.
25. The loader may shift during shipping and handling, making it unstable on the pallet. Support loader with an
overhead hoist or other suitable means prior to removing bands or attaching straps securing loader to pallet.
Failure to do so could result in accidental tip-over of the loader that could cause serious injury to you and/or
bystanders.
BEFORE OPERATION
26. Before starting the engine of your tractor, make sure all operating controls are in park lock or neutral position.
27. Be certain lights and safety markings, as provided by the tractor manufacturer, are clean and operating when
transporting the tractor/loader on public roads. Be certain that the Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) emblem is
visible. Check with local law enforcement for specific requirements.
OPERATION
28. Add wheel ballast and/or rear weight to counterbalance tractor/loader for stability at maximum loader capacity.
29. Additional counterweight requirements will vary with loader attachments and equipment application.
30. Move and turn the tractor at low speeds.
31. Carry loader boom at a low position during normal operation.
32. Never travel at high speeds with bucket loaded.
33. Use caution when operating the loader with a raised bucket or attachment.
34. Avoid driving over loose fill, rocks, holes, or anything that may be dangerous for loader operation or
movement.
35. Allow for the loader length when making turns.
36. Use caution when handling loose or unstable loads.
37. Gradually stop the loader boom when lowering or lifting loads.
38. When using remote hydraulic tractor valves on some tractors, the loader lift and dump cylinders will continue
moving unless the valve handle/handles are manually returned to neutral, or until relief pressure is reached at
the ends of piston strokes. Observe the bucket movement and maintain control with valve handle/handles.
39. Travel speed should be such that complete control and machine stability is maintained at all times. Where
possible, avoid operating near ditches, embankments, and holes. Reduce speed when turning, crossing
slopes, and on rough, slick or muddy surfaces.
40. A loader attachment should be transported in a low position at slow ground speeds. Make turns slowly and
use the tractor brakes cautiously. A loaded attachment in the raised position alters the center of gravity
location of the machine and increases the possibility of mishaps.
41. Be careful during loading, transporting, and stacking to minimize rolling bales and tractor tip over.
42. Do not use buckets, forks, or other attachments without bale retaining devices.
43. Operate the tractor and loader such that complete control and machine stability is maintained at all times.
44. When using a loader, be alert of bucket or attachment position at all times. Loader in raised position with
bucket or attachment rolled back can dump material onto tractor causing damage or injury to tractor and/or
operator.
LARGE HEAVY OBJECTS
45. Never use loader for handling large heavy objects, such as large round or rectangular bales, logs, and oil
drums unless loader is equipped with attachment that is designed to handle such objects.
46. Handling large heavy objects can be extremely dangerous due to danger of rolling the tractor over.
47. Handling large heavy objects can be extremely dangerous due to danger of upending the tractor.
48. Handling large heavy objects can be extremely dangerous due to danger of the object rolling or sliding down
the loader boom onto the operator.
5
49. If you must handle large heavy objects, protect yourself by using caution, moving slowly, and avoiding bumps
and rough ground.
50. If you must handle large heavy objects, protect yourself by never lifting load higher than necessary to clear
the ground.
51. If you must handle large heavy objects, protect yourself by adding rear ballast to the tractor to compensate for
weight of load.
52. If you must handle large heavy objects, protect yourself by never lifting large heavy objects that may roll or fall
on the operator.
53. Never lift any load from any point of the loader with a chain, rope, or cable unless loader is equipped with a
Factory approved attachment that was designed and built for this type of lifting. Always follow lifting
instructions included with these attachments.
54. Use only Factory bale probe or bale retaining devise handler attachment when handling round bales.
55. Do not handle large square bales without a retaining device handler attachment.
56. Do not use buckets, forks, or other attachments without bale retaining devices.
57. Do not use loader for handling large, heavy objects such as logs, tanks, etc.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SLOPES
58. Stay off of slopes too steep for safe operation.
59. Shift down before you start up or down a hill with a heavy load. Avoid "free wheeling."
60. Use extreme caution when operating on a slope.
61. Always operate up and down the slope, never across the slope.
ELECTRICAL
62. Avoid contact with overhead wires, power lines, and obstacles when loader bucket or attachment is raised.
63. Electrocution from power lines can occur with or without contact.
64. Check for underground utilities before digging below grade level.
65. Contact with overhead power lines can cause severe electrical burns or death from electrocution. Make sure
there is enough clearance between raised equipment and overhead power lines.
HYDRAULIC
66. Do not tamper with the relief valve setting. This will void warranty and could cause damage to loader and/or
tractor.
67. Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate the skin, causing serious
personal injury. Do not use HANDS to search for suspected leaks. If injured by escaping fluid, obtain medical
treatment immediately.
68. Visually check for hydraulic leaks and broken, missing, or malfunctioning parts. Never use your hand to check
for suspected leaks under pressure. Use a piece of cardboard or wood for this purpose. Escaping hydraulic
fluid or diesel fuel leaking under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate the skin and cause serious
infection or other personal injury. If injured by leaking fluid, seek medical attention immediately.
69. To prevent personal injury, relieve all pressure before disconnecting fluid lines.
70. Before applying hydraulic pressure, make sure all hydraulic connections are tight and components are in
good condition.
71. Be sure to purge all the air from the hydraulic system before attempting to raise or lower this machine.
72. When using remote hydraulic tractor valves on some tractors, the loader lift and dump cylinders will continue
moving unless the valve handle/handles are manually returned to neutral, or until relief pressure is reached at
the ends of piston strokes. Observe the bucket or attachment movement and maintain control with valve
handle/handles.
73. Raised loader or boom can fall due to hydraulic system failure.
74. To avoid serious injury or death: Block up or securely support loader and boom before working underneath.
75. To avoid serious injury or death: Purge all air from hydraulic system before attempting to raise or lower loader
or boom.
76. To avoid serious injury or death: Stand clear if lowering or raising loader or boom.
77. Do not use hand or skin to check for hydraulic leaks. Use cardboard or wood. Wear eye protection.
78. High pressure oil leaks can penetrate skin causing serious injury and gangrene. Consult a physician
immediately.
79. Lower the loader or boom and release hydraulic pressure before loosening fittings.
6
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
AFTER OPERATION
80. Before leaving the tractor seat, lower attachment or loader boom to ground, stop engine, lock parking brakes,
put all controls in neutral, relieve hydraulic pressure, and remove key before leaving operator's seat.
81. Before disconnecting hydraulic lines, relieve all hydraulic pressure.
82. Make sure all parked loaders on stands are on a hard level surface with all safety devices engaged to prevent
loader from falling and being damaged or injuring someone.
83. Always park loader with bucket attached to loader.
84. When a front loader is mounted on the tractor, enter and exit the operator’s seat only from left side of the
tractor.
85. Always park loader with a Factory attachment attached to the loader.
86. Special care should be taken to park or store attachments with points or sharp edges in a safe manner.
87. Make sure all parked loaders are on a hard level surface. Engage all safety devices to prevent loader from
falling and being damaged or injuring someone. Do not repair loader if it is not mounted on the tractor. Loss of
hydraulic fluid or removal of parts could cause loader to collapse resulting in injury.
REPAIR
88. Visually check for hydraulic leaks and broken, missing, or malfunctioning parts.
Make necessary repairs before operation.
89. To keep mounting kit hardware from loosening during loader operation, hardware must be torqued to
specifications noted in operator manual.
90. Always wear safety goggles when servicing or repairing the machine.
91. When servicing or replacing pins in cylinder ends, bucket, etc., always use a brass drift and hammer. Failure

3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Equip your tractor with a ROPS cab or frame for your protection. See your
tractor/ROPS Operator Manual for correct seat belt usage.
Read entire instructions before beginning to install the loader. Personal injury and machine damage may be
prevented if you read and understand these instructions and special safety messages.
When you are in the tractor seat looking forward, the RH and LH sides of the tractor and loader are the same as
your right hand and left hand.
3.1. TRACTOR PREPARATION
3.1.1. Tractor Front Tires
Use front tires of equal size and maintain equal pressure in each tire. The pressure of the front tractor tires must
be increased to the maximum approved pressure recommended by the tire manufacturer to compensate for
additional load placed on the tires with the Front End Loader. See your tractor Operator Manual. Adjust the front
tires to the widest recommended setting on adjustable models for maximum stability. Front end weights must NOT
be used while loader is on the tractor.
3.1.2. Tractor Rear Tires
Maintain equal pressure in each of the rear tires. Use the widest recommended rear wheel setting for maximum
stability.
3.1.3. Tractor Ballast
CAUTION: To help prevent rollover, use recommended rear tractor ballast and widest wheel
settings to maximize stability. See your tractor Operator Manual for recommendations
Front tractor weights must only be used when the loader is parked. Weights must be removed before remounting
loader or serious damage will occur to loader or tractor front axle due to excessive weight.
The use of adequate rear counterweight to counterbalance for maximum loader capacity is required for safe
loader operation. Weight added to the rear of the tractor provides better traction and easier, more efficient loader
operation.
IMPORTANT: Do not exceed the maximum load capacity of the tires on your tractor. See Tire and Wheel
Specifications in tractor Operator Manual for more information.
3.1.4. Remove all loader components from shipping packaging.
WARNING: To avoid serious injury or death: Read before cutting bands or removing attaching
straps. The loader may shift during shipping and handling, making it unstable on the pallet.
Support loader with an overhead hoist or other suitable means prior to removing bands or
attaching straps securing loader to pallet. Failure to do so could result in accidental tip-over of
the loader that could cause serious injury to you and/or bystanders.
CAUTION: Lift and support all loader components safely.
