C	Back	Boom Raise
D	To Right-Hand Side	Bucket/Attachment Dump

Mechanical Multi-Function Lever—Style C (Current Version, Loaders with a Diverter Valve in Bucket Hydraulic Circuit [Tractors Without a Third-Function Mid-Valve])

CAUTION: Prevent bodily injury or death. As soon as the button for third-function (if equipped) is released the multi-function lever goes back to its primary functions: dump to the right and rollback to the left.

NOTE: If the loader does not respond as expected to the multi-function lever movement:

• Check for correct hose connection and electrical connection. (See Identify Hose Connections in the Service section or Attach Loader in the Attaching and Detaching Loader section.)
• Check tractor hydraulic oil level. (See your tractor Operator’s Manual.)

Third-function needs the loader to be fitted with the required diverter valve. See your John Deere dealer for more information.

The multi-function lever with three-function is protected with a fuse.
