5000-034A ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Step 4: Attach the pivot arms to the mount brackets using 5/8” X 3” bolts, pivot
bushings, & 5/8” lock hex nuts. Use the model below to determine where the LH & RH
pivot arms get installed. Tighten this hardware.
Step 5: Install the push rods into the mount brackets then attach to the pivot arms with
the 5/8” shoulder bolts, washers, and ½” jam lock nuts.
Note: The washers are installed on each side of the “eye” of the push rod.
Now install the compression spring, spring bushing, and ¾” lock hex nuts. The 5000-
402 wedge will need installed between the compression spring and the mount bracket
between rows 1 & 2 and 2 & 3 to keep the spring from contacting the gathering chains.
Tighten the hardware from
Step 5 to the specification in the diagram below.
NOTE: Tightening the nut on the spring bushing more will result in added down
pressure. However, DO NOT tighten the nut on the spring bushing down so far that
spring compression limits pivot arm travel. This will cause the spring to break, especially
if spring is compression all off-season.
