Attaching the Tow Bar to the Push Bar
The Tow Bar can be installed for offsetting to the right or left depending on
which side of the Tow Vehicle you choose to mow. See section “Offset
Mowing” in Chapter 3 to determine how the Tow Bar should be installed for
your needs. The following steps describe installing the Offset Bracket to allow
offsetting to the right side of the Tow Vehicle.
1. Secure the Offset Bracket to the Push Bar in the configuration shown (for
right side offset) using the 4.5" long Clevis Pin, Washer, and Hair Pin (Figure
4).
2. Align the Tow Bar so it is pointed straight out from the Mower and install a
Clevis Pin, Washer, and Hair Pin in the Offset Bracket to lock the Tow Bar in
position.
3. Align the Tow Bar Extension with the Tow Bar and install a Clevis Pin,
Washer, and Hair Pin in the Tow Bar to lock the Tow Bar Extension in place
(Figure 5).
