ASSEMBLY

BEFORE YOU START TO ASSEMBLE THE GRASS CATCHER

If your drawbar looks like STYLE "A" (has the upper corner ribs), your tractor is ready - proceed with the grass catcher assembly.

If your drawbar looks like STYLE "B" (does not have the upper corner ribs), go to the PREPARATION section in this manual.
