2-5 Lift Handle Installation
The various parts of the handle assembly P#(A0273)
must be attached to the container frame. PAGE 12
shows the orientation and location of the components.
Slide the lift handle into the slot in the handle mount
bracket P#(B1730) on the grass container. It may be
necessary to remove the handle grip P#(J0522) to allow
the handle to fit through the slot.
Before attaching the handle, hook one end of the spring
P#(J0176) into the hole on the underside of the handle.
Hook the other end of the spring into the open hole in
the handle mount bracket. Fasten the handle to the
grass container frame by using (1) 3/8”-16 x 2” HHCS
P#(K1208) and (2) 3/8”-16 flange nuts P#(K1215). At this
point the handle can pivot back and forth in the slot of
the handle mount bracket. With the handle in place,
fasten the ball joint P#(K1442) to the end of the latch rod
P#(A0260) (PAGE 8). Tighten to approximately half way
down the threads of the latch rod. Slide the ball joint into
the hole on the latch hook P#(B1529). Use (1) 5/16”-24
hex nut P#(K1444) and (1) 5/16” lock washer P#(K0043)
to fasten the ball joint to the latch hook. Attach the
opposite end of the latch rod into the handle. Fasten the
rod to the handle by using (1) 3/32” x 3/4” cotter pin
P#(K0094). Adjust the rod to allow the hook to close the
box door completely.
Refer to page 8 for exploded parts drawings and
photographs of the complete assembly.
2-6 Aluminum Grass Container
Installation
NOTE:
It is recommended that (3) people assist in
mounting the container.
With three people available, two can lower the container
onto the frame while the third person inserts the pivot
pins P#(K0172) through the holes. Insert the pins from
the outside to the inside. Secure with (1) 5/8” washer
P#(K0058) and (1) 5/32” x 2-5/8” hair pin clip P#(K0088)
per pivot pin. Refer to Figures 2-6a and 2-6b.
Reattach the bottom ends of the door opening linkages
to the main frame by using (1) Rue-Ring cotter pin
P#(K1437) per side.
To test the functionality of the dump mechanism, pull the
lift handle away from the unit, and lift upward (Page 9).
The door of the container should open and the box
should pivot clockwise towards the ground.

2-7 Dump Mechanism Adjustment
The linkage may be adjusted in two places, at the
adjusting screw P#(K1435) and the latch assembly
items. See page 10 for visual clarification. To change the
door closure tightness, screw the adjusting screw
(Figure 2-7) in or out. To adjust the latch, change the
length of the latch rod by screwing the latch adjusting
ball joint in or out. The latch hook pivot should be in the
middle of the slot in the latch hook pivot plate. Slide the
pivot back or forth and then re-tighten.
