Disengage the toggle clamp, tilt the deck to the travel position and re-engage the toggle clamp.
1. If toggle clamp will not engage in the over center position, the linkage needs to be shortened. If the toggle
clamp does not require a firm amount of pressure to engage over center the linkage needs to be length-
ened. Tilt the deck to the loading position and rotate the clevis clockwise to shorten, and counterclock-
wise to lengthen the linkage.
2. Repeat step 1 until the toggle clamp goes over center with a very firm amount of pressure.
3.
Tighten the jam nut against the clevis and install the cotter pin on to the clevis pin.
