Need help with 758c subrame install

ACMan · Jun 26, 2012

Hi Folks,
Just received my 758c for my TC40A. I actually bought it from an out of state dealer who shipped it on a pallet. I received the BH operators manual but it does not show how to install the subframe or connect or disconnect. I've got two big ole bags of nuts and bolts, a half dozen or so steel parts but no clues. Also, want to make sure that all the subframe parts actaully made the trip but I cant do it without a parts list. Can someone direct me to the name or manual number for the subframe?

I really appreciate it.

I would separate the bolts, nuts and washers by size and style.

Perhaps the cnh web site will have a good enough parts break down that would help you line up the parts, perhaps googling a assembly manual?

I found a manual for my 1968 fasco/ford loader.

Hopefully a member here can send pics for theirs.

LOL. Yeah I did that. Was not much for me to do and I wanted to enjoy something since I just picked it up.

I have an email to the dealer hopefully he'll respond. The pallet it came in on was virtually destroyed. It was leaning over onto the bucket that was attached next to it. Big mess even broke the the bucket cylinder short hose fitting. Hopefully dealer will make a claim and replace that hose. Thats another big reason I'm looking to get a parts list. Want to make sure all parts came in.

The subframe has its own installation bulletin that the selling dealer should have provided, now you can get him to download and email it to you as part of your purchase. Should take himn all of about 2 minutes.

Thats what I thought. I guess we'll find out how good his support will be with this whole situation.

Thanks

Well I got the BH hooked up. Thanks to past posts and Gregkabob. Had to order some parts because the selling Dealer would not send them to me. He did however replace the 120" hose that broke in transit but I think thatys only because he's getting reimbursed by freight co. In any case got tire of dealing with them and ordered the missing bolt and 30" hose myself. Waiting on the bolt.

I have a question. There is a bracket on the left side of the BH frame where the long hose goes through the frame, right next to a support bracket. This bracket sticks up in a sort of step shape. I have yet to figure out the purpose of this bracket. My curiousity is killing me.

Can someone enlighten me?

Thanks

When you install the backhoe, set your 3 pt arms to the narrowest positions, or just let them float so that they fit inside the sub-frame. When you lift the backhoe into position, the bracket will lift the arms up and prevent them from interfering with the swing cylinders or hoses. You can barely see them in the picture below.
