OFFSET ADAPTER HITCH (EXTRA EQUIPMENT) (Figure Asm-R-0084)
Fasten the Offset Adapter Tube to the three-Point Lift Lugs using the hitch Pin Holes. Fasten the Adjustable
Leg to the right Lug to offset the Mower to the right. Fasten the Adjustable Leg to the left Lug to offset the
Mower to the Left. The Mower will cut cleaner behind the wheel tracks if it is offset to the left.
Install the Adapter Brace Bar to one gearbox mounting bolt. Fasten the Chain End to the Mainframe (hole in
left Stiffener). Adjust the Brace Bar so the Adapter is in a near perpendicular position.
Attach the Mower to the tractor. Attach Stabilizer Bars to prevent side sway of Mower.
Stabilizer Bars or Sway Chains must be installed and adjusted tightly. Without these bars or
chains, serious damage to the Driveline can occur, and broken parts could cause bodily injury to
the operator or bystanders. Stabilizer Bars or Sway Chains are available at most tractor
dealerships.
Raise the mower to check clearance between the Driveline and Mower Deck. Set the lift stop on the tractor to
ascertain that the Driveline does not strike the deck.
