Park Tractor with Loader Attached

Always park tractor equipped with loader and implement with the loader lowered to the ground and the implement in safe position (close grapple and store bale fork or pallet forks with tines pointed down, or against bale, building or other stable object).

To avoid personal injury due to residual pressure in the hydraulic accumulators, always relieve hydraulic pressure when parking the loader by engaging the FLOAT position.

If parking tractor and loader for an extended period, see Prepare Loader for Storage in Storage section.

Always park tractor with loader as follows:

  • Lower loader to the ground.
  • Engage float position.
  • Place transmission in PARK.
  • Shut off engine.
  • Remove ignition key.

Never leave tractor unattended while engine is still running or loader raised.
