Note: You must establish a configuration for the hydraulic system if the machine was not shipped with a bucket. Use ET in order to establish this configuration. Be sure that non-AVSpare work tools will not interfere with the position sensor. Interference may occur when the bucket is fully racked back and the bucket is fully tilted back. Damage to the position sensor may occur.
Electrohydraulic Bucket Controls

To set the lift kickout, raise the bucket to the desired position above the midway point. Then depress the top of the kickout set switch. The boom will return to the programmed position when the raise detent is activated and the boom is below the kickout position.
To set the lower kickout, lower the bucket to the desired position below the midway point. Then depress the top of the kickout set switch. The boom will return to the programmed position when the float detent is activated and the boom is at least
Note: If the boom is
To set the bucket kickout position, tilt the bucket to the desired digging angle and depress the bottom of the kickout set switch. The bucket will return to the programmed position when the tilt control lever is placed in the tilt back detent and the bucket is dumped beyond the kickout.
Pilot Hydraulic Bucket Controls
Note: On machines with pilot hydraulic bucket controls, the operator must perform one lift cycle in order to energize the electromagnetic detents. This feature prevents movement of the implement at start-up if the lift control has been accidentally moved to the detent.

Note: The operator must activate the bucket positioner and lift kickout by pressing the switch (2) that is located on the switch panel. Press the top of the switch in order to activate the bucket positioner and lift kickout. Press the bottom of the switch in order to deactivate the bucket positioner and lift kickout. On machines with pilot hydraulic bucket controls, a bucket/forks switch is used. This switch is used in order to toggle between two different kickout positions when you are changing from a bucket to a fork.
On machines with pilot hydraulic bucket controls, the kickouts and the positioner must be adjusted manually.
