BAGGER ADJUSTMENT (See Fig. 6 & 7)

For proper bag function and appearance, it may be nec- essary to adjust the bagger assembly. There should be 6mm (1/4")-9mm (3/8") gap between the bagger top and fender and the bagger top surface should be even with the top surface of the fender. To adjust bagger position:

HORIZONTAL ADJUSTMENT

•Slightly loosen the nuts securing the bagger RH and LH horizontal adjustment brackets. Loosen only enough so the brackets keep their position, but allow them to be moved.

•Move the brackets the amount forward or backward you wish the bag assembly to move. Retighten the nuts securely.

VERTICAL ADJUSTMENT

•Slightly loosen the nuts securing the vertical adjustment brackets. Loosen only enough so the brackets keep their position, but allow them to be moved.

•Move the brackets the amount up or down you wish the bag assembly to move. Retighten the nuts securely.

•Reinstall the bagger assembly and check the bagger to fender fit. If necessary, repeat the procedure until proper fit is attained.

•After proper fit is attained, remove bagger from trac- tor and install bagger latch (4) to tractor back plate as shown. Tighten securely.

•Install and carefully lower bagger to actuate latch.

•Measure distance between bagger and latch as shown.
