ASSEMBLY

PULL TONGUE

Attach the tongue to the main frame using tongue

pull pins and spring pins. Attach the tongue jack and

the hose standard.

TRANSPORT LEVEL

For stability when raising or lowering the mulcher

during set-up, the transport mechanism should be

installed. Item 12 has to be rotated until the inner

block is against the mounting spring, item 2. The

1/2” x 5-1/2” bolt (item 13) passes on the opposite

side of the spring mount, sandwiching it between

the bolt and the inner block. Item 12 should not be

able to rotate.
By loosening the u-bolts on the tongue, the mount

assembly may be adjusted until the machine is level

in transport. For leveling in transport, see page 13.

AUTOMATIC TRANSPORT LOCK

Assemble hardware as shown.
