Global / euro not automatically latching

[johnsayen]

Hello

My new loader has the global / euro hitch system. If I understand correctly I believe it’s supposed to latch the bottom pins automatically when you tilt back the loader during the attachment process. Mine isn’t latching, I have to get out of the tractor and do it by hand. Not a big deal but I’m wondering what am I doing wrong? Maybe something needs to be adjusted?

it should latch automatically (at least the MF's do) unless you doing something wrong or something broken/tweaked.

What model of loader?

Mine the bucket has to be tilted all the way back, and held all the way back for a couple of seconds, to trigger the mechanism.

Do your pins move easily by hand? Only time I've had issues is if mud/manure/ice is in the pins and the springs can't overcome the extra friction. Clean pins and greased no issues.

540m loader and I’m trying to attach forks automatically. The pins move easily by hand.

Here’s my global on 540m loader . Is yours missing the curved piece of steel attached with 3 bolts? It pushes up on the rod to dislodge the little locking rod on outside of frame , happens about last 3” of curl back.

When you unlatch the unit are you compressing a spring and engaging a latch that is tripped when the new attachment swings all the way into position.

Paging @Hay Dude. I think he has Global on all or most of his tractors, too.

That’s what I am trying to do. It doesn’t trip when the new attachment swings into position. I’ll have to look to see if I’m missing the small trip plate pictured above.

The PUMA and NH when we unlatch them we pull the lever and it engages in a hook, we dump that attachment off pull up to the other catch the top hooks with the carriage still curled down quite a ways, then lift and curl back at that point the attachment bumps the latch on and the springs push the pins into place.
