Attach the Top Link using Pin and Hairpin. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Attach the Tongue Clevis using two 5/8” x 6” Capscrews and Nylock Nuts. 

 

 

 

 

WARNING:

 

Always wear protective eye goggles and use a magnifying 

 

 

 Glass or hold a piece of wood on suspected leaks.  Pinhole hydraulic leaks  

 

 

can penetrate skin.  Do not touch.

 

 

 

 

CAUTION:

 

Make sure a restrictor is installed in one of the hydraulic lines.   

 

 

Failure to use a restrictor will allow the machine to raise and lower rapidly  

 

 

and could result in damage to the machine and injury to bystanders. 

 

 

 

CAUTION: Operate the cylinder through the cycle a few times to  

 

 

 

expel air from the system. Failure to fully charge the hydraulic system  

 

 

could result in injury when the mower falls abruptly. 

 

 

Mount the Hydraulic Cylinder on the Carrier and install  two  ½” NPT Male x 3/8” JIC Male 

Elbows in the Hydraulic Cylinder.  

Note:

 Do not use Teflon tape, only use liquid type thread 

sealant.  Attach the 114” Hose with ½” NPT Male - 3/8” JIC Swivel ends to the front port of the 

Hydraulic Cylinder.  Attach the 122” Hose with ½” NPT Male – 3/8” JIC Swivel ends to the rear 

port of the Hydraulic Cylinder.  Install the Restrictor on one of the Hydraulic Hoses before 

installing a Hydraulic Coupler.  Route the Hydraulic Hoses through the loop on the side of Drive 

Shaft Support Weldment and then to the tractor.  Before attaching a Mower to the Mower Carrier 

operate the Hydraulic Cylinder several times to purge the air out of the system to prevent any 

sudden drop.
