MODEL PF-448
ASSEMBLY – QUICK ATTACH

——————————————————

If your tractor loader has a bucket Quick Attach feature,

check with your dealer on the availability of adapter
brackets for your brand and model loader.

Measure the width of the front adapter on your loader

and locate the Quick Attach brackets on the main frame.
Locate these brackets so the main frame will be centered
on your loader.

Tighten the U-bolts that connect the brackets to the

main frame.

Parts drawing for the PF-448 is on page 21.

Install the two backstop weldments on the top crossbar.
