Adjusting QUIK-CHANGE™ Latch Plates (600-Style Carrier)
NOTE:
Latch pins have a feature that allows them to drop automatically when the bucket/attachment is detached. The dropped pins allow the operator to attach the bucket/attachment without getting off the tractor. This feature requires adjustment at initial setup.
1.
Position upper portion of latch plate so stud/handle (B) is centered in slot.
2.
Rotate lower portion of latch plate (A) away from bucket/attachment.
3.
Tighten hardware to specifications. Latch pins must move freely (up and down) after hardware has been tightened.

NOTE:
If bucket/attachment is loose after attached to loader or a large gap between latch pin and bucket/attachment exists; Loosen latch plate mounting hardware and rotate latch plate toward bucket/attachment to minimize the gap. Do not eliminate gap completely. No gap will prevent the latch pins from automatically engaging when the bucket/attachment is attached.
IMPORTANT:
If stud/handle (B) is adjusted too long, it may be damaged when bucket/attachment is detached.
4.
Adjust stud/handle length:
a.
With latch pin in down position, pull latch stud/handle (B) toward center.
b.
Adjust nuts until end of stud/handle is flush with plate (C).
c.
Tighten nuts.
