Mount Assembly on Tractor
Install the mounting assembly on the tractor as follows:
1. Place the hooked ends of the bagger mounting assembly over the shoulder
bolts on the mounting brackets previously installed on the tractor in Figure 1.
2. Install the two clevis pins (711-0332) and secure to the mounting brackets
with two click pins (914-0145) included with the mounting bracket kit.
3. Install the clevis pin (711-0309A) from hardware pack 689-00312 into the tractor's
hitch and the assembly's hitch support and secure with a hairpin clip (714-0117).
See Figure 6.
Note: The clevis pin can be fed down through the hitch support and secured
underneath with the hairpin clip, or it may be easier to feed the clevis pin up
through the hitch plate hole and secure with the hairpin clip on the topside.
4. Tighten all of the hardware on the mounting bracket assembly and hitch
support at this time.
