Backhoe Reattaching backhoe alignment problem MF 2410 TLB

[porjoh]

Hi - I am trying to reattach my backhoe but I cannot get the two lock pins to line up - about 1/8 inch off.
Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?
Thanks for your help

Had this issue at times.... check for dirt/mud on tractor mounts and on the hoe, very tight tolerances so it does not take much to cause an issue. If it is close, use a rubber mallet, sometimes that is all it takes. Angle if tractor compared to backhoe can also causes problems. Be sure both are level.... :thumbsup:

Use the stablizers to move it around to get it on. A bit if wiggling is ussualy all it needs.

Make sure the bottom pin cradle is clean, dirt will build up in them w\out the BH on.

Ditto for dirt in the "cradle" part-- it really doesn't take much at all to throw it just far enough out to have trouble getting those pins in!

Thanks guys for your help.
Happy new year!

You're welcome! ...So, was it dirt in the cradle(s)?

Yes plus the out riggers need to be about 6 inches off the ground to get things to line up properly.
Thanks
