1995 Kubota B1750 with a B1640A loader

[Mimos4]

Hey everyone, I've got a little project with my 1995 Kubota B1750 and the B1640A loader.

I need to take the loader off, but I'm completely stumped on where the two support bars go.
Right now, they're hooked up to the bucket, but once I unhook the bucket, where do I put them to hold the whole thing up?

I don't want the bucket to drop on the ground
Also, I'm a little nervous about the bucket dropping. Are there any extra safety steps I should take?
Any help would be awesome. Thanks!

Don't let the cylinders hold the bucket. Always support it before pulling any pins. I'd take some pics of the hydraulic lines and support bar spots before removing it, it'll save you a ton of time when you're putting everything back together lol

The two support bars or stand bars are basically kickstands for the loader frame once you take it off the tractor. You want to be on level ground with plenty of space. What you can do is lower the bucket to the ground and curl it forward so the bottom is flat, then raise the loader arms just a bit. You'll see the stand bars near the lift cylinders. Pull their pins and rotate them down until they lock into place. Slowly lower the loader until the stand bars take the weight. Now you can disconnect the hoses and pull the pins holding the loader arms to the tractor.
