IMPORTANT:
There are two holes in
the clevis pin. Be sure
to insert the hairpin
clip in the upper hole
to properly secure the
bracket assembly to the
hitch plate.
NOTE:
For some tractor
models, this clevis
pin is too large. Use a
smaller clevis pin in
its place with the same
hairpin clip.

mounting bracket holding the hitch plate.

that position until the grass collector is fully mounted
and assembled.

the mounting bracket assembly. See Fig. 3-5.
5. Position the hooked ends of the mounting bracket
assembly to the outside of the support brackets and
over the shoulder bolts just installed on both sides of
the tractor frame. See Fig. 3-7.
6. Reinsert the clevis pin through the aligned holes in
both the bracket assembly and the hitch plate and
secure with the hairpin clip removed earlier. See Fig.
3-8 for reference.
IMPORTANT: There are two holes in the clevis pin. Be
sure to insert the hairpin clip in the upper hole to properly
secure the bracket assembly to the hitch plate.
NOTE:
For some tractor models, this clevis pin is too
large. Use a smaller clevis pin (E in Fig. 2-2) in its place
with the same hairpin clip.
