provide any protection in the event of a roll-over and should not be considered as a Roll Over
Protective Structure.

2. Support the weight of the upper frame (item 1) while removing the hand nuts, washers and retaining
bolts (items 2, 3 & 4) from the pivot brackets. Refer to Fig 2.
3. Carefully lower the frame downwards until it rests on the stops.
4. Insert the retaining bolts in the lower hole and fully tighten the hand nuts to support the upperframe in its
lowered position.
5. To raise the frame, follow these instructions in reverse order.
WARNING: PREVENT ACCIDENTS - When in the raised position, both retaining bolt
assemblies (items 2, 3 & 4) must be installed and fully tightened to ensure full R.O.P.S protection.
