Mounting the Front Fender
•
Slide the front fender into place and attach to the goose-neck with (6) 3/8" x 1" SF nuts and (6) 3/8" SF nuts.
Mounting the Front Axle Assembly
•
Mount (2) wheels and tires to the hubs on the ball hitch tongue and axle assembly using the wheel nuts provided. Use a star pattern
to secure the wheel rim to the hub and tighten to SAE specifications. Once both wheels are secured to the front axle, raise the spring
loaded pin on the header transport main frame and engage the ball hitch on the front axle assembly.
NOTE: Ensure the ball is greased before attaching to the goose-neck frame.
•
Once the ball hitch has engaged the locking tube, lower the spring loaded pin into the hole located on the front axle assembly to
prevent the assembly from unlatching during transport.
Attaching the Adjustable and Upper Bar
•
Secure the upper bar channel support to the left side of the three cross frame chan-
nels on the main base frame using a 5/8" x 6" pin and a hair pin. Secure the upper
bar support arm to the vertical u-brackets located on the right side of the main base
frame using a 5/8" x 6" pin and hair pin. Connect the channel arm to the support
arm using a 5/8" x 6" pin and a hair pin. The support arms and channel arms can be
adjusted and pinned to obtain different heights and positions.
IMPORTANT: Ensure all three assemblies are positioned at the same location and
height to ensure proper fit for the upper bar.
•
Secure the upper bar slide bracket to each of the three channel arms using (2) 5/8" x 6"
pins and hair pins. Be sure to position all three slide brackets at the same position on
the channel arm. Position the upper bar on top of the three slide brackets and secure
using the upper bar clamps and (2) 1/2" SF nuts. The angle of the upper bar can be
adjusted by removing and repositioning the 5/8" x 6" hitch pins in the upper bar
adjustable brackets.
Attaching the Adjustable Header Mounts and Tie-Down Brackets
•
Place the adjustable header mounts and tie-down bracket assemblies on the out-
side left tube of the header transport main frame as shown. Position one adjustable header mount and tie-down bracket assembly
on each side of the center cross member. Ensure the handle holder on each of the adjustable header mounts points away from the
center of the main frame.
•
Secure the adjustable header mount to the outside tube using a 3/4" x 6 1/2" Stove Bolt and clamp handle assembly.
Note: Apply nickel anti-seize to the stove bolt.
•
Attach the Mac Don top mount to the lower header mount using (2) 3/4" x 12" pins and hair pins.
•
Secure the tie-down bracket to the outside tube using (2) 1/2" x 5-1/2" bolts and (2) 1/2" lock nuts. Do not over tighten the 1/2" bolts
on the top of the assembly, but allow the tie-down brackets to move freely along the outer tube.
Note: The tie-down bracket can be secured with the bolts either above or below the main frame tubing as long as the ratchet is
positioned with the strap directed upward.
•
Remove the 1/2" x 2-1/4" bolt from the ratchet and attach the ratchet to the tie-down bracket using that same bolt.
