Securing attachments to work vehicles with suspension control

An attachment system for a work vehicle with a suspension, the attachment system comprising:

• an attachment having one or more legs to support the attachment relative to ground when not carried by the work vehicle;
• a mounting frame attached to the work vehicle at one or more vehicle attachment points, the mounting frame including at least one support extending one of forward of a leading end of the work vehicle and rearward of a trailing end of the work vehicle, such that at least one frame attachment point on the at least one support is disposed, respectively, one of forward of the leading end of the work vehicle and rearward of the trailing end of the work vehicle;
• a user interface configured to receive user commands for adjustment of the suspension;
• and
• a controller configured to cause the suspension to be raised and lowered relative to ground based upon the user commands received at the user interface;
• wherein, when the at least one frame attachment point is vertically aligned with a corresponding at least one attachment point on the attachment and a user command for lifting is received at the user interface, the controller causes the suspension to raise the mounting frame relative to ground by raising a chassis of the work vehicle, such that the mounting frame lifts the attachment.
