SAFETY 1
Loader Mounting Kit (9/11/00)
INSTALLATION
During installation, the tractor engine should be
off, the key removed and the brakes locked. Do not
disconnect hydraulic lines until attachments are
removed or lowered to the ground and system
pressure is released by operating valve levers.
Never operate any hydraulic cylinders during any
phase of the installation process.
This Loader Mounting Kit is to be used only for
the loaders and tractors specified in the Loader
Mount Installation section of this manual. Any
other use or modification of this mounting kit may
result in serious injury or death.
Hydraulics must be connected as instructed in
this manual. Do not substitute parts, modify, or
connect in any other way.
After connecting hoses, check that all control
lever positions function as instructed in the Opera-
tor’s Manual. Do not put into service until control
lever and equipment movements are correct.
TRAINING
Safety instructions are important! Read all
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all
safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace-
ment manuals are available from dealer or, in the
United States and Canada, call 1-800-319-6637.)
Failure to follow instructions or safety rules can
result in serious injury or death.
If you do not understand any part of this manual
and need assistance, see your dealer.
Know your controls and how to stop engine and
attachment quickly in an emergency.
Keep hands and body away from pressurized
lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other
body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles.
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate
skin and will cause serious injury or death.
Make sure that all operating and service person-
nel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it
must be surgically removed as soon as possible by
a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gan-
grene, serious injury, or death will result. CON-
TACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID
ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.
Never allow children or untrained persons to
operate equipment.
PREPARATION
Check that all hardware is properly installed.
Always tighten to torque chart specifications
unless instructed otherwise in this manual.
Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic oper-
ation and allows loads or equipment components
to drop unexpectedly. When connecting equipment
or hoses or performing any hydraulic maintenance,
purge any air in hydraulic system by operating all
hydraulic functions several times. Do this before
putting into service or allowing anyone to
approach the equipment.
After connecting hoses, check that all control
lever positions function as instructed in the Opera-
tor’s Manual. Do not put into service until control
lever and equipment movements are correct.
Protective hose sleeves must cover all hydrau-
lic hoses and be secured onto metal hose fittings.
Replace hoses or sleeves if damaged or if protec-
tive sleeve cannot be properly positioned or
secured.
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.
(Safety Rules continued on next page)
Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out
by an operator’s single careless act.
In addition to the design and configuration of
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-
tion are dependent upon the awareness, concern,
judgement, and proper training of personnel
involved in the operation, transport, maintenance
and storage of equipment.
It has been said “The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be that
kind of operator.
