MOUNTING THE CADDY
TO THE TRACTOR
1. Attach the tongue/pull hitch to the tractor's drawbar.
2. Attach the PTO shaft to the caddy and to the tractor's 540 RPM PTO,
making sure that these connections are very secure.
3. Check the PTO shaft with the tractor and caddy at it's most closed
position, the shaft should never be completely compressed. There
should be at lease 1” safety margin at this point.
4. Many PTO shafts become damaged due to tight turns while in transport
as well as extreme working angles.
5. Connect the hydraulic hose for lowering and raising the mower to a
single or double acting valve on the tractor.
6. Check for proper assembly and adjustment and make sure that all bolts
are tightened. Securely re-tighten after a few hours of operation as
bolts can loosen on new machinery. Check wheel bolts upon delivery
and periodically thereafter. Wheel bolts should be tightened at 85-95
ft/lbs torque.

8. Lubricate the machine completely.
ATTACHING THE MOWER TO THE CADDY
1. Position mower to allow clearance outside of wheel.
2. Attach the lift arms and re-tighten the clamping bolts
3. Attach upper link and adjust for proper mowing angles (follow mower
manufacturers guidelines)
4. Adjust the ratchet jack to place the mower at the recommended working
height (NOTE: if your mower requires a 3 pt lift cylinder, use of
cylinder stops will be required)
5. Connect hydraulic hose and check for proper operation
6. Attach the mower driveline to the PTO
