Mounting Deflector on Early Model Tractors
(Mfg. No. 1690433 and lower)
There are three possible variations in mounting the
deflector. Install the deflector as described in either step
1, 2 or 3.
1. If the tractor has side mounted headlights, use
hardware that secures the left headlight to the hood.
The hardware sent with kit is not needed. The
deflector will be positioned as shown in figure 25
(headlight not shown).
2. If the tractor does not have side mounted headlight,
but has mounting holes, install the deflector as
shown in figure 25. Use the two capscrews,
lockwashers and nuts from kit. Install capscrews
from outside. The two spacers sent with kit are not
needed.
3. If the tractor has neither side mounted headlights or
mounting holes, two 5/16 inch holes must be drilled.
To drill the holes and install the deflector, proceed as
follows:
a. Open the hood. Place the deflector in position as
shown in figure 25. Make sure clip on top edge of
deflector fully engages the hood. Slide deflector as
far as possible toward front of tractor. Mark
position of mounting holes and remove the
deflector.
