Preparing Tractor For Installation
1.
Park the tractor on a smooth, level surface.
4.
Set parking brake and block front tires to
keep the tractor from rolling.
5.
Remove step on right side of tractor.
2.
Disconnect the battery.
3.
Remove the brake actuator lever (1). The
brake actuator lever is located near the rear
axle. Bend the brake actuator lever on each
size 1” towards the center to allow enough
room for the undercarriage to fit. Reinstall

The Belly Blade will arrive on a pallet. Unwrap
and set the blade aside. Remove the undercarriage
assembly from the pallet (1).
NOTE:
To ease assembly, remove rear tires and
support the tractor safely.
7.
Check the inventory and ensure that all parts
are included with the Belly Blade Kit. If any parts
are missing, contact your dealer.
8.
If the rear tires are not removed, raise the back
of tractor, and place blocks safely underneath the
tractor tires or use an appropriate hoist. Keep
enough distance between the blocks, so the
undercarriage will fit.
IMPORTANT:
Raise the tractor high enough for
the undercarriage to fit under the rear axle when
installing the undercarriage.
9.
If the rear tires are removed, raise the back of the
tractor and use jack stands that are recommended
for your tractor to support the tractor safely. Keep
enough distance between the jack stands, so the
undercarriage will fit.
