3.2.5 Install the right and left hand frame brackets (Items 14 and 15) loosely to the
mount weldment and the wheel channels of the Lazer Z frame. The flanges on
the side plates should face in towards the unit to provide the maximum tire
clearance.

wheel motor channel must be left uninstalled. Units with Serial Numbers above
440,000 will have a captured bolt in this position. See Figure 2.

16 whizlock nuts (Item 24). Make sure that the raised portion of the spring disk
washer faces the head of the bolt.
NOTE: On 52 and 60 inch units, the lower bolt on the wheel channel is best
installed by positioning the nut behind the hole using a deep socket and turning
the bolt through the hole into the nut.

Vac.
2) Install the 3/8-16 thin nyloc nut (Item 49) and a spring disk washer to the bolt
protruding from the wheel motor channel as shown.
