Using Attachments

Important
If you are using an attachment with a serial
number of 200999999 or earlier, the manual for the
attachment may contain information specific to the use of
the attachment with other Dingo models, such as settings
for the flow divider control and speed selector lever and
the use of a counterweight on the traction unit. These
systems are built into the Dingo TX, and you should
ignore any references to them.

Connecting an Attachment
Important
Use only Toro-approved attachments.
Attachments can change the stability and the operating
characteristics of the traction unit. The warranty of the
traction unit may be voided if used with unapproved
attachments.
Important
Before installing the attachment, ensure
that the mount plates are free of any dirt or debris and that
the pins rotate freely. If the pins do not rotate freely,
grease them; refer to Greasing the Traction Unit, page 34.
1. Position the attachment on a level surface with enough
space behind it to accommodate the traction unit.
2. Start the engine.
3. Tilt the attachment mount plate forward.
4. Position mount plate into the upper lip of the
attachment receiver plate (Fig. 14).

5. Raise the loader arms while tilting back the mount
plate at the same time.
Important The attachment should be raised enough to
clear the ground, and the mount plate should be tilted all
the way back.
6. Stop the engine.
7. Engage the quick attach pins, ensuring that they are
fully seated in the mount plate (Fig. 15).
Important
If the pins do not rotate to the engaged
position, the mount plate is not fully aligned with the
holes in the attachment receiver plate. Check the receiver
plate and clean it if necessary.
