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.

    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.

  4. IMPORTANT: If stud/handle (B) is adjusted too long, it may be damaged when bucket/attachment is detached.

    Adjust stud/handle length:

    1. With latch pin in down position, pull latch stud/handle (B) toward center.

    2. Adjust nuts until end of stud/handle is flush with plate (C).

    3. Tighten nuts.
