Could anyone tell me how it's done? I know it is supposed to be simple, but I was just curious the steps. I think I am going to take mine off to do some field work.

Prepare to Remove Loader:1. Level bucket and lower to ground.
2. Retract lift cylinders and relieve weight from front tires.
Remove loader:1. Release latch and pull out to maximum position. Repeat for the other side.
2. Extend lift cylinders. Masts will lift out of rear frames.
3. Raise masts high enough to clear front tires.
4. Apply parking brake and shut off engine.
5. Move control lever(s) back and forth a few times to relieve system pressure.
6. Disconnect hoses at couplers and install dust plugs.
To avoid hose damage, be sure hoses do not catch on tractor when reversing away from loader.
8. Slowly back away from loader.
