Assembling the Blade
1. Lift and rotate the channel assembly (Fig. 2) so that the
holes align with the lower blade mounts.
2. Slide the rod through the holes and secure it with two
cotter pins (1 in.) (Fig. 2).
Note: If you have difficulty sliding the rod through the
holes, partially remove the upper rod and use a hammer to
drive the rod through. Then install the upper rod.
3. Bend the ends of the cotter pins to secure the rod.
6. Slide the blade channel assembly between the frame
mount and secure it with a bolt (3/4 x 3-3/4 in.) and
locknut (3/4 in.) (Fig. 4).
Note: Do not tighten the nut and bolt excessively, thereby
causing binding on the channel weldment as it pivots from
side to side.
7. Connect the index lever to the angle pin with a cotter
pin (1/8 x 1-1/2 in.) (Fig. 4).
8. Attach the index lever to the frame assembly with a bolt
(1/4 x 2 in.) and locknut (1/4 in.) (Fig. 4).
