Bobcat 743 controls

[uffda]

The illustration in the manual for the control levers show a long bolt and a short bolt on the right hand side. I am using a grapple, if both of these bolts are used, the control lever will not move for opening and closing the grapple. I took the short bolt out and it will move sideways now to control the grapple. Is this the way it should be? Is the short bolt suppose to be in there somehow?

The short bolt is installed when it is desirable to prevent operation of the auxiliary hydraulic function- for instance if you have a machine that will only be used with a standard bucket. As you have discovered, remove it to use a grapple etc.

Thanks so much, Wayne
