NOTE: Before performing any of the instructions throughout this manual, references to left,
right, front and rear of the tractor are from the operator's position, unless otherwise stated.
•
Before assembly, place the tractor on a firm, level surface, disengage the PTO, stop
the tractor engine and set the parking brake.
•
For convenience, pivot the seat forward and leave it in that position until the grass
collector is fully mounted and assembled.
700 Series Tractor Only
If you are assembling this bagger unit for use on any 700 series model tractor you will
need to install the tractor mounting brackets packed in your bagger kit. If you are
installing this bagger unit on any other tractor, disregard these steps and continue to
Assemble Mounting Brackets.
To install these brackets on a 700 series
model tractor, follow these steps:
1.
If not already installed by the
factory, install a shoulder bolt from
the 700 Series Mount Kit (689-
00086A) hardware pack on each
bracket, securing them with flange
lock nuts also included in the
hardware pack. Refer to Figure 1.
2.
If already installed in the brackets,
remove the clevis pins and cotter
pins, retain for later instructions.
Refer to Figure 1.
3.
Mount the 700 series tractor
mounting brackets to your tractor
using four self-tapping hex screws
included with your kit. See Figure 2.
Assemble Mounting
Brackets
To assemble the universal mounting
assembly, locate the rider hitch bracket
assembly (689-00304A) and the universal
support bracket (783-08129) and follow
these steps:
1.
Attach the two hitch side brackets
to the rear support bracket (rider
hitch bracket assembly 689-
00304A) using two carriage bolts
(710-0276) and wing knobs
(720-04122) from hardware
pack 689-02364. See Figure 3.
NOTE: The hooks on the side
brackets should point downwards
and the tabs on the rear plate point
upwards as shown in Figure 3.
2.
Flip over assembly and mount the
hitch support bracket to the
universal support bracket
(783-08129) using two carriage
bolts (710-0276) and wing knobs
(720-04122) from hardware pack
689-02364. See Figure 4 (1).

NOTE: It might be easier during the mounting stage to leave this hardware only finger tight
to facilitate lining up the hitch hole for the clevis pin. You will be instructed to tighten this
hardware later in this manual.
NOTE: The holes closest to the mounting
hooks are to be used for all 700 series model
tractors, see Figure 4 (1), while the
two holes closest to the cross mount are
for all other models, see Figure 4 (2). The
hitch support bracket will need to be
flipped to enable alignment of the proper
holes depending on the model of tractor
this bagger is being installed on.
Mounting Assembly on 700
Series Tractors
1.
Place the hooked ends of the
mounting assembly over the
shoulder bolts on the mounting
brackets previously installed on the
tractor and line up the hitch
support bracket center hole with
the hole on the tractor's hitch. See
Figure 5.
2.
Install the clevis pin (711-0309A)
from hardware pack 689-02364
into the tractor's hitch and secure
with a cotter pin (714-0117). See
Figure 6.
3.
Replace two previously removed
clevis pins through the mounting
assembly and secure to the 700
series mounting brackets installed
earlier with cotter pins provided in
the hardware pack. See Figure 6.
NOTE: The clevis pin can be fed down
through the hitch plate and secured
underneath with the cotter pin, or it may
be easier to feed the clevis pin up through the hitch plate hole and secure with the cotter pin
on the topside. Insert the cotter pin into the top hole, closest to the head of the pin. You may
need to push up on the pin to make the hole accessible.
IMPORTANT: If you decided to leave the hitch support only finger tight during the assembly
process, tighten all of the hardware securely at this time.
Mount Assembly on All Other Tractors
1.
Place the hooked ends of the
mounting assembly over the
shoulder bolts on the back of the
tractor frame and line up the hitch
support bracket center hole with
the hole on the tractor's hitch. See
Figure 7.
