• For most vehicles, assemble the hitch extension
bracket to the holes in the hitch tube shown at the
top
of figure 16. Use two 1/4" x 1-3/4" hex bolts and
1/4" nylock hex nuts tightened only finger tight. Attach
the spreader hitch to your vehicle hitch. Check for
interference with the spreader directly behind and out
to both sides of the vehicle. Lift the spreader at each
position to make sure there is no interference with the
spreader's flow control. If there is interference with
the rear of the vehicle, assemble the hitch extension
bracket as shown at the
bottom
of figure 16.
Tighten
the bolts and nuts when finished.
