I wish I could stop over and help you. I would have that on in seconds.
Problem is, they will send a person out, put it on in seconds and you'd be there scratching your head in fear of ever taking it off again. Best way to learn is taking it on and off a couple times. If they are patient, they will let you do this with them present.
I see so many people leave their loaders attached because they fear taking them on and off.
I routinely take my loader on and off several times a year, so I am extremely familiar with it. Not to brag, but the fastest I ever got my loader on was 1:54. Most of the time used to slide the pins in and connect the hydraulic fittings.

Yeah once you understand how to do it, it takes less than 5 minutes. The first time I did it took me like 20 minutes.

No one has mentioned that once pins are out, that usually the bucket ‘tilt/dump’ function now moves the disconnected arms, as do the raise/lower cylinders; but in a different arc/direction.
Move things slowly and in very small increments, you’ll figure it out.

Looks like you just need to curl your bucket up and that will raise the rear into position. May need to back up the tractor a little first.
Well I didn't have to call the dealer, a buddy of mine stopped over and we were frogging around with it and some how we figured it out, after that we put it on the right way and now it works great. :drink: Thanks for the help guys. I'm going to put some more pictures up to.

- BX2370 60" MMM with bagger, BX5450 Front mount Blower, soft cab, 48" Brush hog, Several Gravely's, Lots of Land Rovers, Best wife EVER!!
Xterra,
I have a BX2370 and I have one suggestion: lose the 2x3” under the loader!! I admit that I still have to noodle around a bit when I remove my loader, sometimes it takes 3 minutes, sometimes 15 minutes.
I find a nice flat area works best.
To remove I place the bucket down flat and use down pressure to lift the front wheels off the ground. The pins will pull right out.
Now curl the bucket one way or the other while watching the loader arms. It takes some practice, but I have no qualms about putting on or taking off the loader for a 1 Hour job!
You’re gonna love that Machine, I have the same front Blower, the thing is a beast!
Cheers

Its the easiest loader to take on an off, but the worst if you dont do it right. For the first couple months after i bought my BX23s, every saturday i would take the loader off and put it back on several times, just to get familiar with it. Now i can do it in my sleep. Green and Red tractors dont got nuffin on the Orange...FACT.

Glad you got it sorted out. And stop posting pics of your new tractor. It makes me want to go out and buy one.
