Assemble Mounting Brackets
1. Install 12 rubber pads (735-05938)
into adapter bracket (789-02278)
using the mounting holes shown

Check the bumper pads after each
season for excessive wear and replace as
necessary.
Install Bracket Assembly
on Tractor
NOTE:
When assembling this mounting assembly,
it is best to not fully tighten the bracket at this time. This will facilitate the mounting process in later
steps, which will then require fully tightening this mounting assembly.
Install mounting bracket assembly on tractor as follows:
1. Remove hitch bracket.
2. Place two flat washers
(736-0117) between
hitch bracket adapter
(789-02298) and the hitch
bracket removed in Step 1.
3. Install bracket assembly to
the tractor's lower frame
with two capscrews (710-
0376). See Figure 4.
4. Hang adapter bracket
assembly onto upper frame
tube and connect to hitch
bracket adapter (789-
02298) with two screws
(710-0376), two cup
washers (736-0242), and
two flange lock nuts (710-
04063). See Figure 5.
NOTE:
Make sure that the adapter
bracket is seated firmly on the
upper tube frame.
5. Tighten all of the hardware
installed at this time.
