Push the mounting pin through its hole firmly, and through the ball socket fully. If the pin is
at a slight angle through the holes, a soft-faced mallet may be used to tap the pin home.
Ensure that the pin comes all the way through the plates, and it’s lynch pin hole is
exposed.
Insert the lynch pin through the mounting pin hole, securing it to the Outfront.
Repeat for the other hand linkage arm.
Connect the PTO shaft to the tractor PTO output, close the shaft up fully, then extend to
the gearbox PTO input shaft. Pull back the collar, and slide the PTO onto the gearbox,
then release collar. Give the PTO shaft a pull, forwards and backwards on both yokes, to
ensure the PTO has fully engaged. Connect the anti-rotation chains to any suitable hard
points on the linkage arms and tractor unit. See figure 4.2.10 below.

Note that depending on the tractor unit, spacers may be required to be inserted on the pin,
either side of the ball socket. These will centralize the Outfront on the tractor unit and take
out any slack in the mounting system.
