CROSSBAR REMOVAL
1. It is necessary to gain access to bottom side of cut-
ter for crossbar removal. See OWNER SERVICE,
page 18.
NOTE: You will need to use either the puller screw
(Item 6, Figure 16) or a small hydraulic jack to re-
move the crossbar.
2. To make crossbar removal easier, remove blades
as shown in Figure 17.

3. Remove cotter pin and castle nut from bottom of
crossbar, Figure 18.
4. Attach a clevis (1) to each end of crossbar, using
blade pins, spacers, keyhole plates, and blade pin
clips.
5. Position tube assembly (5) with threaded nut toward
crossbar for puller screw removal or down for hy-
draulic jack removal.
6. For removal with puller screw, attach tube (5) to
each clevis with bolts (2) and nuts (3). Place pad (4)
in nut and thread puller screw (6) into nut from bot-
tom. Tighten until pad is solid against gearbox shaft.
For best results, strike head of puller screw with a
hammer while tightening with a wrench.
7. For removal with a jack, attach tube to each clevis
with puller links (7), bolts (2), and nuts (3). Place
jack on tube with end of jack pressing against gear-
box shaft. Slowly apply force with jack.
NOTE: Hydraulic jack will not operate if tipped
more than 90-degrees. Use care to prevent bend-
ing crossbar during removal.
