I have a 165 with a quick disconnect loader. Does anyone have the official directions for installing and removing it?
Not sure of what model it is. Can someone asks tell me where to find the ID plate if the is one.
I know that newer units have a kind of kick stand built onto them that allows the unit to free stand and you drive the tractor under it and then secure it.
Mine has a cross beam under the engine/trans joint with a receiver on each side. The loader has a spring-loaded lever on the bottom of each leg that when lowered slides a pin down into a hole inside each receiver. There are also two support brackets mounted on the side of the front end that slides into "c" brackets are on the loader. These brackets are closed on the back.
Its seems to me that when removing/installing the loader I will need to hang or support it from above. Not what I'd consider quick. There must be a better way that I can't see.
How do others do it?
