Align right main frame leg against the ZT frame joint
and perpendicular to the frame. Fasten with (4) 3/8 x
2 x 2-1/2” U-blots from the inside out. Flatwashers
should be used over the slotted holes at the bottom
leg of each U-bolt. (Figure 4)

2-2 Preparing To Mount Grass Container
Remove the rue-ring cotter pins from the bottom
ends of the door opening linkages and disconnect
the linkages.
Remove hair pin clips, washers and pivot pins that
connect the mainframe to the grass container. The
parts may then be separated. Place the mainframe
onto the mainframe legs and fasten with (4) 3/8 x 1”
bolts and locknuts. (Figure 6)

2-3 Attaching The Lift Handle To The
Aluminum Grass Container.
The various parts of the handle assembly must be
attached to the container frame. Figure 7 shows the
orientation and location of the components. Slide the
lift handle into the slot in the bracket on the grass
container. It may be necessary to remove the handle
grip to allow the handle to fit through the slot.
Before attaching the handle, hook one end of the
spring into the hole on the underside of the handle.
Hook the other end of the spring into the open hole
in the bracket. Fasten the handle to the frame using
3/8-16 x 2” hex bolt and two 3/8” serated flanged hex
nuts. The handle must be able to move freely in the
slot in the bracket. If not, check the spacing of the
parts on the pivot point bolt. At this point the handle
can pivot back and forth in the slot, but the spring
pulls the handle in towards the grass container. With
the handle in place, fasten the ball joint, (Figure 9) to
the end of the rod. Tighten to approximately half way
down the threads of the rod. slide the ball joint into
the hole on the latch hook. Tighten nut on end of ball
joint. Attach opposite end into the latch handle
(Figure 7). Place a washer on the rod and use a cot-
ter pin to hold in place. Adjust rod to allow hook to
close the box completely.
Refer to Figures 7, 8, 9 and 10 for exploded parts
drawing and photogrtaphs of complete assembly.
