Operating Multifunction Control Lever (If Equipped)

CAUTION: Overheated hydraulic oil can cause personal injury and component malfunctions. To prevent hydraulic oil from overheating, DO NOT hold multifunction control lever in operating position for an extended period of time.

P15257-UN-11FEB08

A - Multifunction Control Lever

Lever controls lifting and lowering of the boom as well as tilting (dump) and rollback (curl) of the bucket.

Both two-function and three-function control levers use full forward detented position, for “FLOAT” operation.

Two-function control lever has a momentarily detented position (full right) used to fast dump the bucket.

Additional third-functions are controlled by handle-mounted switch.

1. NOTE: Roman numerals do not apply to this application.

   A - Control Lever—Neutral Position

   B - Front—Boom Lower

   C - Back—Boom Raise

   D - Left—Bucket Rollback (Curl)

   E - Right—Bucket Tilt (Dump)

   F - Two-Function Zone

   G - Slow Speed

   H - Fast Speed

   I - Detented “Float” Position

   J - Fast Dump Position (Two-Function Control Lever only)

   K - Third-Function Operations (See next page)

   A single function operates when control lever (A) is moved straight away from center, in one-of-four primary directions (front, back, left or right).
   • Front—Boom Lower (B)
     • Full-front (I) is a detented position used for “float” operations
   • Back—Boom Raise (C)
   • Left—Bucket Rollback (Curl) (D)
   • Right—Bucket Tilt (Dump) (E)
     • Two-Function Control Lever: Full-right (J) is a momentarily detented regenerative position where return oil is used to fast dump the bucket

2. Two functions operate simultaneously when lever is moved at 45° angles from primary directions, into a two-function zone (F). Two-function zones are: Boom Lower/Bucket Dump, Bucket Dump/Boom Raise, Boom Raise/Bucket Curl, Bucket Curl/Boom Lower.

3. When lever is released to spring-centered neutral position, mid-mount valve holds boom and bucket in position.

4. Cylinder operating speed depends on how far from center the control lever is moved. When lever is first moved from center, hydraulic functions operate slowly (G), then move progressively faster as lever is moved further away from center, out to fast speed operating position (H).

“Float”: Push lever full forward into detent, when “float” is desired. “Float” position (I) allows loader boom to move up and down freely, while traveling over rough ground. Manually return lever to neutral, when “float” is no longer needed.

Transport Lock

Locked

LV12595-UN-21APR05

Unlocked

A - Transport Lock

CAUTION: To prevent loader movement, engage control lever transport lock (A) before dismounting tractor. Control lever must be in center (neutral) position for lock to engage.

Transport lock does not lock out switch operated third-function hydraulics, which are active anytime the key is ON.

• Push IN—Lock
• Pull OUT—Unlock

NOTE: Lock is engaged when dashed line is in against body and lever does not move.

Third-Function (Electro-Hydraulic)

LV9662-UN-20AUG04

A - Switch

Switch (A) controls third-function hydraulics connected to three-function mid-mount valve. Third-function hydraulics are active anytime the key is ON.

• Top half pressed: Attachment retract/raise (grapple open)
• Bottom half pressed: Attachment extend/lower (grapple close)

NOTE: Front switch is not operational in this application.

Manually Operating Third-Function (Electro-Hydraulic) Valve Section

LV10323-UN-20SEP04

Mid-Mount Valve

A - Access Hole (Extend)

B - Access Hole (Retract)

Third-function (grapple) valve section can be manually operated, if an electrical malfunction occurs.

Insert a small diameter punch through access hole (A or B) and push spool to either extend or retract cylinders as needed to release load.
