Rear Frame Bracket Assembly & Installation
Before installing the Rear Frame Bracket, first remove the existing hitch and its hardware located at the rear end of
the mower and set it aside (Refer to Figure A). Next, remove the two bolts located on either side of the hitch kit that
was just removed.
To install the Rear Frame Bracket (Item #1), position the Rear Frame Bracket over the rear end of the mower aligning
all of the lower bolt holes of the Rear Frame Bracket to those on the mower’s rear end. Secure the Rear Frame
Bracket to the mower by replacing the existing hitch removed from earlier and using (4) 5/16”-18 x 1” Carriage Bolts
(Item #3) and (4) 5/16”-18 Ny-Flange Lock Nuts (Item #4). Refer to Figure B.

#3) and (4) 5/16”-18 Ny-Flange Lock Nuts (Item #4). Refer to Figure B.
