Collector Installation

Assemble Collector Hood

1.Install the inlet tube (B, Figure 42) to the collector back plate (A) and secure with the 5/16-18 x 3/4” bolts (C) and 5/16-18 nylock flange nuts (D).

2.Install the mount posts (E) on the back plate and loosely secure with the 3/8-16 x 1” bolts (F) and 3/8-16 nylock flange nuts (G).

NOTE: On the 3-bag collector back plate, install the eight (8) supplied hole plugs in the remaining mounting holes not used.

3.Install the collector onto the mount plate and secure with the hitch pins as shown in Figure 38. Again, this will insure that the holes are properly aligned for easy installation and removal.. Tighten the 3/8-16 x 1” bolts securing the posts to the back plate.

NOTE: It is recommended that the rear suspension be adjusted stiffer due to the added weight of the collection system (see operators manual for procedure).
