• Remove the nuts from the two bolts in each side of
the tractor, leaving the bolts in place. See figure 2.
• Attach the Mounting Brackets to the bolts using the
original nuts and two 3/8" flat washers. The brack-
ets should be turned so that the bends increase the
distance between the rear of the brackets. See
Figure 2.
NOTE: If no bolt and nut are present in a hole, use a
3/8" x 1-1/4" hex bolt, 3/8" lock washer and 3/8"
