HELP! super dumb loader removal question

[freezmcnally]

I HAVE NEVER REMOVED MY LOADER BUT WOULD LIKE TO. I have a ck 3510se with the kl4030 loader. in the manual it just says 'release the pin and keeper' for the parking stand. all I see is the bolt holding the foot of the parking stand on. there is a slot on the underside, but if I push a screw driver in, something seems to be spring loaded but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to deploy these parking stands LOL

I have an LS, but it looks like the same foot -
it has to slide, don't remember if it's forward
or back, but the whole arm will slide against
the spring loaded part and then down

It appears to be a hairpin clip perhaps. Try to pull the clip. It may come out to release the stand or pulling may release the stand. You could also check You Tube for videos.

only vid I could find he just easily slid upwards.(4020 loader) these won't do that (4030 loader). I removed a cir clip and pulled a pin out of the bottom of the leg and the leg came off. but I thought it was supposed to be tool-less??. dumb design if I have to carry cir clip pliers and remove the leg completely and then reinstall it. The hole for that pin is round, so I don't think it will slide in any direction. in the slot was just a spring for the foot articulation. super weird. if anyone has the same loader I would be curious if the pinhole should be elongated or something.

The parking stands are spring loaded on the locks. Pull up on the parking stand foot to unlock them from the loader arms. When I remove my loader, I lower the parking stands & put the locking arm in the 3rd notch.

man, when I pulled every which way it never budged, but maybe because its new and hasn't been done yet. I will try that again. thanks for letting me know.

Yes, they will just pop down. You can use a small pry bar at the top by the foot. Once you do it, it will be easier thereafter. They stay up pretty tight so that they do not come down when operating the tractor / loader.

thanks guys. i got them down. i see now where they are spring loaded and you lift out of the slot. BUT the nut and bolt were too tight from the factory. once i loosened them they work as they should now. thanks for the replies. at least now i can remove my loader in literally 5 minutes!

It is alway nice when someone reports back on the final outcome (good or bad).

I have a video on removing your loader. Yours works the same way.
