ASSEMBLY
OFFSET ADAPTER HITCH (EXTRA EQUIPMENT)
1. Fasten the Offset Adapter Hitch Weldment to the lift lugs using the Hitch Pin holes. Fasten the Adjustable
Leg to the left side lug if the Mower is to offset to the left. The Mower will make a cleaner cut behind the
wheel tracks if it is offset to the left. Reverse the Assembly for right offset.
2. Install the Brace Bars. Fasten the chain end to the rear mounting hole in the Gearbox Base Plate. Adjust
the Brace Bar so the Hitch Assembly is nearly perpendicular.
3. Attach the Mower to the tractor. Install stabilizer bars or adjust sway chains to prevent side sway of the
mower.
Stabilizer Bars or Sway Chains must be installed and adjusted tightly. Without these bars or
chains, serious damage to the Driveline can occur, and broken parts could cause bodily
injury to the operator or bystanders. Stabilizer Bars or Sway Chains are available at most
tractor dealerships.
4. Raise the mower to check clearance between the Driveline and Mower Deck. Set the lift stop on the tractor
to ascertain that the Driveline does not strike the deck.
For additional safety in transport, raise mower as high as possible without having driveline
hit deck and shorten check chains as much as possible to prevent inadvertent falling in
transport.
