To remove the carriage arm the lift and tilt cylinder will need to be disconnected, the hoses will not require disconnecting, the cylinders can be set aside with the hoses connected. Remove the roll pins from the carriage pin. The carriage arm is pinned to the back pivot plate and the tractor main- frame. The mounting frame to attach to the tractor will vary from tractor model, but the way the car- riage arm is pinned to will not.

Flatwashers will have to be used on these two lower bolts (See Figure 25). The pitch of the cutter bar will have to be readjusted, see pitch adjustment instructions in earlier pages (See Figure 4 & 26)
