WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
The implement is rear heavy if the hitch frame is not
assembled to the mainframe and will flip over backward.
Secure mainframe from flipping over before working around
it.
14. Remove hairpin cotter (#14) and pivot shaft (#1) from
hitch frame (#2).
15. Slide pivot hole “C” into pocket of Z-bracket (5B) and
then align hitch holes “G” with pivot tube hole “F”.
16. Insert pivot shaft (#1) through holes “G” & “F”. Secure

Rear Blade Assembly
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Components falling from the implement can injure a person.
Make certain all components are secured to the implement
before lifting it, and that the unit is properly supported on the
ground before removing lifting device. Always keep feet and
other extremities clear of areas where components can fall.
Refer to Figure 1-1:
1. Remove packaged components, mainframe (#3),
and parking stand (#4) from shipping crate.
2. Attach parking stand (#4) to mainframe (#3) with
3/8"-16 x 3" GR5 bolt (#12) and flange locknut (#13).
Draw locknut up snug, do not tighten .
3. Rotate parking stand (#4) down and secure with wire
snap locking pin (#15). Make certain wire snap is
caught over end of pin to keep pin from working out.
4. Remove hitch frame (#2) and moldboard (#7).
5. Remove bolt (#11), pivot cap (#6), and drive pivot cap
(#9) from pivot shaft (#8).
6. Remove paint from blade pivot shaft (#8) and wipe
grease from inside of pivot hole “E”.
7. Rotate mainframe (#3) counterclockwise until
mainframe is parallel with moldboard and
Z-bracket (#5A) clears pivot plate (#10).
8. Lower rear pivot hole “E” over pivot shaft (#8) until
mainframe is fully resting on pivot plate (#10).
9. Rotate mainframe until hole “A” in pivot plate (#10) is
aligned with hole “B” in mainframe. Make sure
Z-bracket (#5A) is caught under pivot plate (#10).
10. Clean excess grease and paint from around top of
blade pivot shaft (#8).
IMPORTANT: Remove paint from blade pivot shaft
and wipe grease from inside of mainframe pivot hole
to make certain pivot shaft will fit into pivot hole.
