Attaching The Drum Unit - IBEX TS51C Assembly Manual

ASSEMBLY GUIDE

ATTACHING THE DRUM UNIT

Position the drum unit so that the center pivot holes line up when the arm assembly is pushed
down. If you are working by yourself, using a ratchet strap to pull down the spring loaded arm
will make this operation easier.
Figure 23 push the lower arm down to line up with drum unit
The centers must be lined up before driving the pin through the hole. Use a long screwdriver,
long punch, or a similar tool to line up the holes while attempting to drive the pin. Do not
force the pin through, as you can damage the plastic bushings. A little oil on the pin can help.
Use the top link to adjust the angle and adjust the height of the 3 point hitch to better line up
the holes. Use patience as the pin will not go through easily until it is lined up well. Try nudging
the drum unit to get all holes aligned at the same time.
Figure 24 holes are close to being aligned
Install the washer and nut on the pivot pin. The nut is a nylon locking nut and should not be
over-tightened. Insert a screwdriver in the hole in the pin if necessary to prevent it from
turning while securing the nut.
