It walks through the tripod method for relieving pin pressure, disconnecting and capping hydraulic hoses, storing the pins safely, and reattaching the lift arms step by step. Most useful to RK24 owners doing this for the first time.
Posted by the BKT Outdoors channel, which appears to be an owner documenting hands-on tasks with their own RK24, though no background details are provided.
Lower the outriggers and boom to form a tripod, taking weight off the pins, then pull the linchpins and main pins, raise the backhoe slightly, and disconnect and cap the hydraulic hoses.
Take the lifting arms from their storage spot on the backhoe, attach the vertical bars to the top and bottom bars on each side, and secure with pins and linchpins, using a washer for support.
The pins are tight because too much weight is still on the backhoe. Adjust the outriggers and boom levers to lift the weight off until the pins are loose and easy to remove.
