Pin the strut assembly to the mounting lugs on the arm and cutter with the 1" bolts. The length of the strut from pinpoint to pinpoint should be set to according to what type of cutter is being attached. See chart for length of strut according to cutter being used.

NOTE: All cutters will have a strut mount lug welded to the cutter at the factory. If cutter is an older model and does not come with the welded mounted lug, a retro-fit weld on lug kit is available for purchase at your local dealer.The kit consist of lug, bolt & nut, a spray can paint, and installation instructions. Customer will be required to weld lug then drill a 17/32” hole through the tube and pin the safety bolt through it (the hole is already pre-drilled on the lug itself)
