NOTE: With platform attached, latch pins should move freely through latch plate holes. If latch pins do not extend through the latch plates, make sure that the latching plates on the platform are properly adjusted.

8. Latch pins (A) should move freely through latch plate holes in header when multicoupler is latched. Latch plate (B) must make contact with bracket (C). Less clearance (D) should be maintained between bottom of plate and pin rather than top of plate (E) and pin. This may require latch plate to be flipped.

If adjustment is needed: Remove cap screws (F), flip plate (B) end for end, reinstall, and tighten cap screws to specifications:
