the mower.
BE AWARE OF SAFETY ALERT WORDS
A Signal word designates a degree or level of hazard seriousness, signal words are:
DANGER: Indicates imminently hazardous practices. A situation that, if not avoided, will result
in death or severe injury. The signal word is limited to the most extreme situation, typically for
machine components that, for functional purposes, cannot be guarded.
WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in death
or severe injury, and includes hazards that are exposed when guards remove. Use warnings to
alert against unsafe practices.
CAUTION: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that may result in minor or moderate

suitable hearing protection such as earmuffs or earplugs.
•Operating equipment safety requires the full attention of the operator. Avoid wearing
radio headphones while operating machinery.
AVOID HIGH-PRESSURE FLUIDS HAZARD
•Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing severe injury.
•Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines or performing
work on the system.
•Ensure all hydraulic fluid connections are tight and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in
good condition before applying pressure to the system.

MOWER INSTALLATION
NOTE: The illustrations and instructions provided explain how to install a bucket
attachment on to a loader. Follow these same instructions if you are installing different
attachments such as a grapple, tiller, mower, etc. The attachment mounting frame for
the attachment has a top flange that is designed to receive the top edge of the Bob-Tach
and the lower part of the frame is designed to receive the Bob-Tach wedges.
IMPORTANT: Always inspect the loader’s Bob-Tach and the attachment mounting frame
before installation.
a. Pull the Bob-Tech levers up until they are fully raised (wedges fully raised). Refer to
Figure 1-8.
b. Enter the loader, start the engine, press the PRESS TO OPERATE LOADER button and
release the parking brake.
c. Lower the lift arms and tilt the Bob-Tach forward.
d. Drive the loader slowly forward until the top edge of the Bob-Tach is completely under
the top flange of the attachment mounting frame. Refer to Figure 1-9.
NOTE: Be sure the Bob-Tach levers do not hit the attachment.
e. Tilt the Bob-Tach backward until the attachment is
slightly off the ground. This will cause the attachment
mounting frame to fit up against the front of the Bob-
Tach. Refer to Figure 1-10.
FIGURE 1-1
NOTE: When leaving the operator’s seat to install an attachment, tilt the attachment until it is
slightly off the ground.

11
f. Stop the engine and exit the loader.
g. Push down on the Bob-Tach levers until they are fully engaged in the locked position
(wedges fully extended through the attachment mounting frame holes). Refer to Figure
1-11.
Both levers must contact the frame as shown when locked. Refer to Figure 1-12.
WARNING
AVOID INJURY OR DEATH The Bob-Tach wedges must extend through the holes in the
attachment mounting frame. Levers must be full down and locked. Failure to secure
wedges can allow attachment to come off.
h. The wedges must extend through the holes in the attachment mounting frame, securely
fastening the attachment to the Bob-Tach. Refer to Figure 1-13.

12
MOWER REMOVAL
NOTE: In muddy conditions or to prevent the attachment from freezing to the ground, put the
attachment on planks or blocks before removing the attachment from the loader.
a. Lower the lift arms and put the attachment flat on the ground. Lower or close the
hydraulic equipment.
b. Stop the engine and release auxiliary hydraulic pressure.
c. Exit the loader.
d. Disconnect auxiliary hydraulic hoses.
e. Pull the Bob-Tach levers up until they are fully raised (wedges fully raised). Refer to
Figure 1-14.
WARNING
Bob-Tach levers have spring tension. Hold lever tightly and release slowly. Failure to obey
warning can cause injury.
f. Enter the loader.
g. Start the engine, press the
PRESS TO OPERATE LOADER
button and release the parking
brake. 13
h. Tilt the Bob-Tach forward and drive the loader backward, away from the attachment.
Refer to Figure 1-15.

SECTION 2: DAILY INSPECTION
ATTACHMENT MOUNT FRAME
Inspect the Bob-Tach wedge mounts (item1), mounting flange (item2) and all welds on the
attachment mount for wear or damage each time the attachment is removed from the loader.
Refer to Figure 2-1.
Figure 2-1
MOWER INSPECTION
Check the following items every 25 hours of operation:
•Check blade for cracks or damage. Replace if necessary.
•Check blade mounting hardware for proper torque 350N.m (260 ft-lb).
•Check deck and shield. Repair if damaged or replace if necessary.
•Check for damaged or missing decals. Replace if necessary.
•Check for damaged or leaking hydraulic hoses or fittings. Replace if necessary.
•Clean debris, leaves, grass and flammable material from deck area and pulley covers.
•Lubricate all 7 grease points.
•Check blade belts for condition and wear. Adjust or replace as necessary.
•Check for loose, damaged, or missing nuts and bolts. Retighten or replace if necessary.
WARNING
AVOID INJURY OR DEATH
Never work on a machine with the attachment raised unless secured by an approved
support device. Failure to use an approved support device can cause the lift arms, boom,
or attachment to fall and cause serious injury or death. Diesel fuel or hydraulic fluid
under pressure can penetrate skin or eyes, causing serious injury or death.
Fluid leaks under pressure may not be visible. Use a piece of carboard or wood to find
leaks. Do not use your bare hand. Wear safety goggles. If fluid enters skin or eyes, get
immediate medical attention from a physician familiar with this injury.
