Hitch Installation
1. Attach the hitch weldment to the front of the frame
using hitch pins, shims, 1-8 hex lock nuts, and 1/2 x
2-1/4 grooved alloy pins (See Figure 3-3.)
NOTE
Use shims as required to eliminate slack in the hitch to
frame assembly.
2. Move the jack to the forward mounting tube and
rotate to parking position to support the front of the
hitch.
3. Insert a 3/4-10 x 7 hex head cap screw into the hose
holder tube on the right side of the hitch from the
bottom side so the threads point upward. Hold in
place with a 3/4 prevailing torque flange nut with the
flange pointing upward as well. Do not tighten this
cap screw, so the hose holder bracket may pivot
freely in this joint.
4. Slide the hose holder bracket over the screw and
secure with another 3/4 prevailing torque flange nut.
5. Install a 3/8-16 x 3-1/2 all-thread screw in the front of
the hose holder bracket and secure with a 3/8-16 hex
nut.
6. Slide the hose holder clamp over the 3/8" screw and
loosely start the wing nut on top of the clamp.
Hydraulic hoses will be routed through the clamp
after assembly.
IMPORTANT
The clamp has two sides, so that extend hoses can
be located on one side and retract hoses can be
located on the other side for reference.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT
The leveler tower must be installed so that the
narrow end of the tower is down and the reinforced
holes are to the rear of the machine.
7. Connect narrow end of the leveler tower to the
bottom hole of the hitch weldment using 1-1/4-7 x
9-1/2 hex head cap screw, split lock washer, and hex
nut.
8. Connect front end of leveler tube to the rear top hole
of the leveler tower using hitch pin, 1-1/4 flat
washers, 1-8 hex lock nut, and 1/2 x 2-1/4 grooved
alloy pin.
9. Connect rear end of leveler tube to the bottom hole of
the rockshaft assembly using hitch pin, 1-1/4 flat
washers, 1-8 hex lock nut, and 1/2 x 2-1/4 grooved
alloy pin.
10. Attach the hitch rod radius assembly to the top front
hole of the leveler tower using 1-1/4-7 x 8 hex head
cap screw, split lock washer, and hex nut.
11. Connect the remaining end of the hitch rod radius
assembly to the hitch weldment using 1-1/4-7 x 8 hex
head cap screw, split lock washer, and hex nut.
12. Attach hitch ring to the clevis hitch using 3/4-16 x
5-1/2 hex head cap screw and hex nut (as required).
13. Assemble hitch clevis assembly to the hitch
weldment using 1-8 x 7-1/2 hex head cap screws,
hitch bushings, flat washers, and hex lock nuts
through the top hole. Use 1-8 x 7-1/2 hex head cap
screw, safety chain assembly, flat washer, and hex
lock nut in the lower hole.
