IMPLEMENT HITCH
Implement Hitch Installation
1. Remove the mower deck from the tractor if neces-
sary. Refer to the appropriate Tractor Ownerās
Manual.
2. Lightly grease each tractor support arm (2) on the
tractor. Refer to Implement Hitch Installation
photo for location of tractor support arms.
3. Engage the hitch frame tube sockets on the tractor
support arms. Slide the implement hitch onto the
support arms approximately 3 in. (76 mm).
4. Install the hitch pin through the hole on the end of
each support arm to lock the hitch in place. Two (2)
hitch pins are included in the ownerās packet of ma-
terials.
Implement Hitch Installation
IMPORTANT: If the tractor body needs to be
raised, the PTO shield must be in the closed or
down position and the implement must be in the
lowered position. The only time the PTO shield
needs to be open or raised is when connecting or
disconnecting the driveline for the rotary broom,
snowblower, or debris blower.

5. Loosen the 3/4-10 jam nut on the end of the imple-
ment Hitch. Adjust the 3/4-10 x 2 in. hex bolt until
deck support arms are parallel with ground. Se-
curely tighten the 3/4-10 jam nut to prevent the bolt
from moving.
Implement Hitch Jam Nut Adjustment
IMPORTANT: This adjustment will need to be
made only once if the same tractor and hitch are
used together. If the hitch will be used on more than
one tractor, this adjustment will be required every
time the hitch is mounted on a different tractor.
