Angle
Figure 7b Fitting steel angle to tractor frame and hole locations for FW25-HL6.

If One Angle Per Side (Fig. 1)

If installing one angle per side, be sure the 4 inch leg is on top of the frame, and the 3 1/2 inch leg
is pointing down. Place an angle on each side and clamp tightly so each leg fits snug against the
tractor frame, top and side.
Cut out the angles to fit around any obstructions such as bolts, spring hangers, etc.
After clamping, go to "Drill Bolt Holes".

If Two Angles Per Side (Fig. 2)

If installing two angles per side, install the lower angle first — on each side. Be sure the lower
angle is positioned with the 4 inch leg pointing away from the tractor frame, and the 3 1/2 inch
leg is pointing down. Clamp the lower angle in place, aligned with the top edge of the tractor
frame.
Cut out the angles to fit around any obstructions such as bolts, spring hangers, etc.
After clamping, go to "Drill Bolt Holes". NOTE: The top angle in two angle installations will be
installed later.

Drill Bolt Holes

With the angles properly positioned and clamped, mark the angles for at least 8 bolt holes along
the side for the FW-30 & FW-45, 12 bolts for the FW-25HL6. First mark, then drill a pilot hole,
and then an 11/16 inch hole at the locations indicated in Figure 7. Also drill any additional holes
where you feel additional bolts may be needed.
Bolt the angles to the tractor frame using 5/8 inch SAE Grade 8 bolts, nuts and lock washers. We
recommend using Loctite® on the nuts.
