Attaching the Out-Rigger™ Tow Bar to the TOW-BEHIND DR FIELD and BRUSH MOWER
WHEN ATTACHING THE TOW BAR AND CONTROL CABLES, YOU MUST FIRST DISCONNECT THE
SPARK PLUG WIRE(S), KEEPING IT AWAY FROM THE SPARK PLUG(S) TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL
STARTING OF THE ENGINE.
Tool Needed:
7/16" Wrench or Socket
1. Using a 7/16" Wrench or Socket, remove the three (3)
Bolts and Washers that retain the Black Pulley Cover
and remove the Cover (Figure 4).
2. Locate and remove the Tow Bar Retaining Pin and
Collar from the Pivot Pin on the front of the Mower
Deck (Figure 4).
3. Pull the Handle of the Tow Bar Locking Pin up so its
Cross Pin is above the Tow Bar and then twist the
Handle 90º so the Cross Pin rests on the Tow Bar
(Figure 5).
Adjusting Tip: Enlist the help of another person to hold
the Tow Bar level during the next step.
4. Place the Tow Bar over the Pivot Pin and install the
Collar and the Tow Bar Retaining Pin (Figure 5).
