• To attach the blade to the channel assembly, align
the notched holes in the pivot plate with the notched
holes in the blade. Insert a 1/8" x 1-1/4" cotter pin (P)
down through the hole at the bend in the blade pivot
shaft. Spread the ends of the pin. From the left side
insert the blade pivot shaft, bend facing top of blade,
through the notched holes. Secure the shaft with
another 1/8" x 1-1/4" cotter pin (P) through the end
hole in the shaft. Spread the ends of the pin.
• Remove the plastic cap and one 3/8" hex nut from the
bolt in the blade adjust spring. Adjust the remaining
3/8" hex nut down approximately 1" onto the bolt
threads. Hook the spring over the spring mount rod.
Place the bolt up through the hole in the top edge of
the blade and reassemble the other 3/8" hex nut to
the bolt and tighten down against the top edge of the
blade. Replace the plastic cap over the end of the bolt
