12. Retract lift cylinders until mast saddles (D) rest on the bottom pins (E) on both sides.

13. As masts (A) are tilted back, the top mounting frame pin (C) opens latches (B) and then returns them to the LOCKED position. Parking stand (F) automatically raises to the stored position under the tractor during the procedure.

    Retract bucket cylinders, dump the bucket approximately 20°, and lower the boom to the ground.

14. Retract lift cylinders until the loader masts move back and latches (B) contact the top mounting frame pins (C), causing them to open.

15. Continue retracting lift cylinders until the parking stand (F) rises to the stored position and latches on both sides return to the LOCKED position.
