Alamo A60, A72 Offset Adapter Hitch

ASSEMBLY

A60/A72 01/08 Assembly Section 3-8

ASSEMBLY

Offset Adapter Hitch - Extra Equipment

1. Fasten the Offset Adapter Hitch weldment to

the lift lugs using the Hitch Pin holes. Fasten

the Adjustable Leg to the left side lug if the

Mower is to offset to the left. The Mower will

make a cleaner cut behind the wheel tracks if it

is offset to the left. Reverse the Assembly for

right offset (Figure Asm-0010).

2. Install the Brace Bars. Fasten the chain end to

the rear mounting hole in the Gearbox Base

Plate. Adjust the Brace Bar so the Hitch

Assembly is nearly perpendicular.

3. Attach the Mower to the tractor. Install stabilizer

bars or adjust sway chains to prevent side sway

of the mower.

Stabilizer Bars or Sway Chains must be installed and adjusted tightly. Without these bars

or chains, serious damage to the Driveline can occur, and broken parts could cause bodily

injury to the operator or bystanders. Stabilizer Bars or Sway Chains are available at most

tractor dealerships.

4. Raise the mower to check clearance between the Driveline and Mower Deck. Set the lift stop on the

tractor to ascertain that the Driveline does not strike the deck.

For additional safety in transport, raise mower as high as possible without having driveline

hit deck and shorten check chains as much as possible to prevent inadvertent falling in

transport.
