Bush Hog Dealer.
Required parts are as follows:
RTG60 Shield number 50075506
RTG72 Shield number 50075093
RTG84 Shield number 50075507
Attchment will require six (6) 3/8” x 1” Grade 5 bolts and six (6) 3/8” Locknuts.
Serious Injury or Death could occur if not taking the time to secure the Tiller to pre-
vent the machine from falling or tipping while performing this procedure.

or roll over during this procedure.
