MACHINE OPERATIONS AND CONTROLS 3.3.13 CHANGING THE BUCKET When the coupling pins are removed or installed, chips may come off; always use gloves, goggles and helmet. The change of the equipment must be carried out by two persons, who must decide together the words and si- gnals to use during operations. Do not use your fingers to center the holes, since they may be injured or even cut in case of sudden or uncon- trolled movements. The described procedures are valid also for the cou- pling of the mechanical constraints of the optional equi- pment. 1. Position the bucket on a level surface, directing it so that the flat part of its back rests on the ground. 2.
Remove the tie rod pin (1) and the arm connection pin (2). 3. Change the bucket, taking care to clean the pins, the bu- shings and the seals perfectly and to grease the pins sli- ghtly before reinstalling them. IMPORTANT Install first the arm connection pin, making sure that the seals are in good conditions. 4. Put back all the safety pins (3) and lubricate by means of the appropriate grease nipple. 127 DANGER
