417-192A Weight Kit Installation
Tools Required:
• Lift or hoist with a capacity of at least 890 pounds
(403 kg). Two lift lines, each with a capacity of at
least 890 pounds (403 kg).
• Tractor for raising and unfolding the applicator.
• Basic hand tools.
1. Raise and unfold the applicator. Leave it hitched or
install parking stands.
2. Determine the mounting location. The weights are
installed front-to-back in the rear sub-frame. The
notched end of the stack is to the rear, with the
mounting plate to the right. Choose lateral
locations using the following criteria:
3. Locate one:
417-193S WEIGHT BRACKET ASSY 890#
Observe that a weight stack is not symmetrical. The
weight base has a long (outside) notch at the end
with the mounting plate .
4. As needed, orient the weight stack prior to line
attachment, so that it is in the correct orientation
when placed on the frame.
5. Connect hoist lines to the weight mounts .
6. With the long notch to rear, place the weight in the
rear sub-frame. Push it fully to the rear before
releasing the lines.
7. Repeat step 2 through step 5 for the other weight.
8. Select two:
806-015C U-BOLT 5/8-11 X 4 1/32 X 8
and four sets:
804-022C WASHER LOCK SPRING 5/8 PLT
Insert the a U-bolt
, from below the lift-assist tool
bar, through the weight stack mounting plate .
Place two washers
on each bolt
. Secure with
nuts
.
• One weight set on each side, and equal distance
from applicator center-line.
• Inside (between) lift-assist wheel assemblies.
• Clear of row unit mounts at mainframe rear.
Heavy Overhead Object Hazard:
Move only one weight stack at a time. Use an adequate hoist.
Use two or more lines, each rated for the full weight of a single
weight stack. Inspect lines for wear and damage. If the hoist
fails or tips, or a line fails, a weight could fall or swing,
causing serious injury or death. Do not stand to either side of
an elevated weight stack. Keep body parts away from gaps
between the stack and other machine parts. Remain behind
and out from under the elevated weight stack. Move the stack
slowly and carefully. Assume a line could fail, and that the
weights could swing down and to the side.
Machine Damage Risk:
Always install or remove both weights. When installed, always
use provided U-bolts to secure weights to tool bar. An
unsecured weight could tip sideways during a turn or on a
slope, causing machine damage.
