ASSEMBLY
DEALER SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
Set up mower as received from factory with these instructions.
This mower is shipped partially assembled. Assembly will be easier if components are aligned and loosely
assembled before tightening hardware. Refer to bolt torque chart in Maintenance Section. All bolts are Grade 5
unless otherwise specified.
All references to location as right, left, front, rear, top and bottom is viewed facing the direction of forward travel
when the implement is properly attached to the operating power unit.
HITCH LINKAGE SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT! For shipping purposes, the mower
hitch floating links are connected with two bolts
apiece to a lower transport link (which is painted
black) and the lower links to be used during
operation are strapped to the floating links. Before
operation, the linkage must be re-configured to
flex upward. Failure to replace three-hole
transport link with two-hole lower link (painted
same color as unit) as described below before
operation could result in mower hitch failure.
1. Place the cutter on a solid level surface
resting on its skids.
2. Cut away strapping material holding lower
links on top of floating link.
3. Remove all hardware and bushings
connected to lower transport link. Discard
three-hole black transport link.
4. Attach two-hole lower link to deck and to
middle hole on floating links, using existing
hardware and bushings.
5. Place bushing between both arms above
lower link and install bolt through bushing and
fasten with locknut.
6. Repeat procedure on other link assembly.
7. Place bushing between both arms above
mower link and install 5/8” bolt through
bushing an fasten with 5/8” locknut.
Never work under the Implement, the framework, or any lifted
component unless the Implement is securely supported or blocked up
to prevent sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause serious
injury or even death.
