6. Holding the adapter bracket and the deck adapter
together, position the deck adapter on the mower
deck. Keeping the edge of deck adapter as close as
possible to the offset in the adapter bracket, see if the
slot in the adapter bracket can be aligned with one
or two of the deflector holes in your mower deck's
discharge opening. If the bracket can not be located
correctly using existing holes, it will be necessary to
drill one or two 5/16" diameter holes in the deck. See
figure 13.
5. Position the adapter over the deck opening, and check
for fit of cutout as shown in figure 12. Trim cutout, if
necessary, to allow tilting of adapter, keeping the fit as
close as possible for best vacuum suction.
7. Assemble the adapter bracket to the deck using two
5/16" x 1-1/4" hex bolts, 5/16" flat washers and 5/16"
nylock nuts. See figure 14.
NOTE: It may be necessary to use extra 5/16" flat
washers to shim under the bracket next to the deck
surface. Ten extra washers have been furnished as
shims. See figure 14.

10. Assemble end of hose and a hose clamp over the
round opening of deck adapter and tighten clamp.
8. With deck adapter positioned correctly over the
discharge opening, use the adapter bracket as a
template and drill three 9/32" diameter holes in the top
of the deck adapter. See figure 15.
9. Bolt deck adapter to bracket using three 1/4" x 1"
bolts, nylon washers, 1/4" flat washers and 1/4" lock
nuts. Nylon washers should be against the inside of
the deck adapter. See figure 15.
