Positioning the Beam
WARNING!
Take extra care when raising and

from any possible pinch points.

Remove any bolts or straps securing the beam and cylinder
to the bottom of the crate.

Remove the wood (if present) between the wedge and the
end plate by cutting the cable tie that secures it. Cut the
strap near the hose on the front of the cylinder that secures
it to the beam weld bracket. Be careful not to damage the
hose.
3.
Remove the vertical beam pin (see inset of Figure 3-5).
4.
Position the Beam and cylinder assembly in front the
reservoir assembly as shown in Figure 3-5 and secure it
with the pin and bowtie clip removed in step 3.
5.
Pivot the beam to the horizontal position until it locks into
place, being sure to avoid any possible pinch points. See
Figure 3-5.

The fender may be pre-assembled to the fender bracket
by a self-tapping screw, flat washer and lock nut at the factory.

Remove the self-tapping screws and the flat washers from
one side of the reservoir tank. See Figure 3-2.
