Remove Front Weights - To prevent interference with the loader, remove all the front tractor weights. Front weight bracket extensions are NOT compatible with the loader. Remove all the front tractor weights.

Attach Ballast Box to John Deere 2025R Tractor with 3-Point Hitch - Engage the park brake or place the transmission in PARK. Shut off engine and remove ignition key. Attach the tractor draft links. Fasten with quick-lock pins (stored on the tractor draft links). Align the center link with the upper hole in the ballast box mounting straps and install the center link mounting hardware. Start the engine. Raise the ballast box and check for interference. If necessary, lower the ballast box to the ground and adjust the center link and lift links.

Attach John Deere 220R Loader - Start the engine. Drive forward and center JD 2025R tractor between the loader masts. Continue forward, aligning the loader masts with mounting frames. Engage the park brake or place the transmission in PARK. Shut off the engine. Relieve the hydraulic pressure. If equipped with a multicoupler, route the hose bundle into the hose guide.

Connect hydraulics - multicoupler: Raise the cover. Push in the red knob and rotate the handle upward. Multicoupler mating halves must align properly or damage to couplers can occur. Place the loader coupler, into the tractor coupler by aligning pins with holes. Rotate the handle downward to engage pins on 220R loader coupler. Continue to rotate the handle all the way down until a click is heard, locking couplers together. Connect hydraulics - quick couplers: Remove the protective cap from the hose and plug from the coupler. Push back the collar on the female coupler and insert the male coupler. Connect the cap and plug together. Repeat procedure for all the remaining hose connections.

Start the engine. If necessary, continue to drive forward keeping the bushing on the mounting frame in alignment with the notch in masts. Place the transmission in NEUTRAL. Make sure that masts are fully seated on mounting frames. Retract lift cylinders. Masts lower onto mounting frames and parking stand raises up below the weight bracket. Use a combination of extending bucket cylinders and retracting lift cylinders until the loader masts move back and latches lock over mounting frame bushings. Verify proper attachment, retract lift cylinders until the tractor wheels raise off the ground, then raise the 220R loader to lift the bucket from the ground.

Operating 270A Backhoe Hydraulic Thumb - The hydraulic thumb can be used to pick up objects and secure them between the thumb and bucket. To operate the thumb, pull out the knob on the thumb valve. The bucket cylinder and hydraulic cylinder are now linked together into one circuit and controlled by the bucket lever. When clamping on an object with the thumb, it is normal that the bucket or thumb moves separately of each other until one of them contacts the object. Upon contact, the bucket/thumb stops and the opposite bucket/thumb moves and clamps onto the object. It is normal that the bucket and 270A backhoe thumb do not move at the same rate of speed during operation. Place the backhoe thumb in the storage position when it is not in use. Activate the hydraulic thumb by pulling out the knob on the thumb valve. Curl out the bucket and hold until both bucket and backhoe thumb cylinders are fully retracted. Push the knob on the backhoe thumb valve down. Thumb cylinder is now out of the circuit and the bucket operates as normal.

Start engine and run at low idle. Back up tractor to within 8 inches of backhoe. Stop tractor engine and engage parking brake. Ensure swing lock pin is installed. Disconnect tractor power beyond hydraulic coupler behind tractor and connect to backhoe coupler tip. Connect backhoe hydraulic return line coupler to tractor coupler tip. Start tractor and set engine to low idle. Lower backhoe stabilizers to raise backhoe up so that the lower pins are above slots.

Back up tractor until backhoe pins contact tractor frame. Lower stabilizers until backhoe pins engages into frame slots. Lower backhoe boom until cross holes in mount frame and backhoe align. Install lock pin through 260B backhoe and mount frame from inside, and secure by inserting retainer pin into slot on frame. Repeat for other side. From the backhoe operator seat, bleed the hydraulic system by doing the following: Check to be sure that operating area is clear. Raise and lower both stabilizers. Raise and lower boom. Extend and retract dipperstick. Curl and dump bucket. Swing boom from side to side. Raise backhoe to transport position and install boom lock pin. Center backhoe and install swing lock pin.

Driveline Installation - Separate the 54" snow blower from the three point hitch. Remove paint from snowblower gearbox shaft and grease driveline sliding surfaces and yoke. Remove the bolts from the driveline yoke and connect the driveline to the gearbox. Make sure the driveline is well attached on the shaft while securing with the bolts and nuts. Tighten all bolts. Attach safety chain over the upper link to prevent the guard from spinning. If the snow blower is put in storing, install the other safety chain in the ring intended to support the driveline. If 54-inch snowblower is installed on 2025R tractor, connect the other driveline part to the tractor shaft. Make sure it is locked safely. Attach then the safety chain to appropriate places on the tractor.

Chain Tension Adjustment - The premature wear of the chain may be caused by tension being too tight. It is therefore important not to tighten chain to its maximum. To adjust the tension on the drive chain, loosen the bolt securing the idler sprocket to the snowblower housing. To tighten the chain, lower the bolt. Leave approximately 1/8" deflection in one span of the chain. Retighten securely the bolt holding the idler sprocket.

Attaching PTO Driveline - Shut off tractor engine. Raise tractor PTO shield, if equipped. Support driveline, cradling it in your hand. Pull collar back toward RC2048 Rotary Cutter. Align splines by rotating cutter driveline. Push driveline onto tractor PTO shaft until collar snaps into place. Pull back on shield to make sure driveline is locked. Do not pull back on collar, this will release latch. Lower tractor PTO shield, if equipped. Slip clutch components must be free to rotate when necessary. After thirty days or more, linings of slip clutch may draw moisture.

Linings may bond to metal parts causing slip clutch to be ineffective, resulting in machine damage. Slip clutch operational check. After the implement has been stored for thirty days or more perform the following operational check. Loosen bolts and lock nuts progressively until tension is relieved. To aid in determining slippage,
scribe/mark a line across clutch plate and Belleville Spring. With tractor at idle speed, engage tractor PTO drive 2 - 3 seconds. Clutch should slip without turning blades. Tighten bolts and lock nuts progressively, leaving a gap of 4mm between clutch plate and Belleville spring.
