ASSEMBLY
AXLE BRACE INSTALLATION
With the tractor on jack-stands, remove the existing hardware and the three point
links on the rear axle where the axle braces will be mounted. Use a hoist to raise the
axle braces to the correctly matching mounting holes on the rear axle and the main
frame. Use the existing hardware to attach the braces to the tractor.
NOTE : All
capscrews are threaded from the bottom up, except the inner rear capscrew. DO
NOT tighten the hardware at this time. Remove the capscrews one at a time and
apply a thread locking agent. Reinsert the capscrews and tighten / torque to values
noted in the torque chart located in the maintenance section of this manual.
Reattach the links to the three point hitch with the existing pins.
MAIN FRAME INSTALLATION
With an overhead hoist and / or jack-stands, raise one side of the frame up to the
correctly matching mounting holes. Install capscrews and all other hardware as shown
in main frame parts section to secure the sides of the main frame to the tractor casting,
DO NOT tighten at this time. Remove the capscrews one at a time and apply a thread
locking agent. Reinsert the capscrews and tighten / torque to values noted in the torque
chart located in the maintenance section of this manual. ( The front capscrews are
14mm X 1.5 pitch, Class 10.9. They should be torqued to 155 Ft.-Lbs. - Dry or
122 Ft.-Lbs. - Lubricated.)
KUBOTA RIGHT SIDE FUEL TANK
NOTE: THE FUEL TANK IS REPLACED ONLY ON BOOM UNITS.
Drain the right hand fuel tank. Remove the three hoses and the wire connection to
the fuel gauge. Remove and reuse the fuel gauge, the gasket and hardware. The
gasket has a unique hole pattern and is marked to match the fuel gauge. When taking
out the gauge, pull upward until the float reaches the top of the tank. Tip the gauge
toward the opposite end of the tank and remove the gauge. Save the gauge for later.
Remove the tank straps and the lower cross bar and discard. Drill two 1/2” holes
on the upper front plate according to the measurements shown in the parts section.
Drill two 1/2” holes on the lower rear plate according to the measurements in the parts
section.
To add the tank gauge to the Tiger tank, first place the gasket that you removed from
the original tank on the fuel gauge and match up the holes. Insert the float section of the
gauge into the top hole. Then tip the gauge so the long end of the gauge fits into the
long end of the tank. Secure the gauge with the existing hardware.
Add the barbed elbow to the top of the tank. Place the rear tank strap over the back
end of the tank. Insert the front tank strap into the holes on the top plate and hold in
place with the Tiger hardware. Insert the back end of the fuel tank on to the rear plate.
Slide the front end of the tank into the front tank straps. Place one piece of split hose on
the lower rear plate under the Tiger tank. Thread the Tank strap into the newly drilled
holes and add he hardware. Cut the other piece of split hose in half and add them to the
front tank strap corners under the tank. This keeps the straps from wearing holes in
the tank. Tighten the hardware and secure the fuel tank to the tractor.
Finally, attach the proper hoses to the corresponding holes and add the wires for the
fuel gauge. Refer to the parts section for hardware used and dimensions.
