STEP 4: ATTACH CABLE PIVOT BAR

Attach the two lift cable pivot bars (K) to the diameter of 19mm x length of 118mm shaft on the tongue assembly. Install each pivot bar on top of shaft, use a diameter 8mm Teflon washer (D) between the two bars, then secure with a M8 nylock nut (M) . The cables and lock pins should be positioned facing the rear of rake. See figure 4.

STEP 6: ATTACH CLEVIS TO PIVOT BAR - Attach the clevis pin(I) on the end of lift rod (opposite end of lift handle). Then attach the clevis to the cable pivot bar from STEP 4, secure with diameter 6mm x 25mm clevis pin(I) into diameter 6mm hole. See figure 6.

Do not insert cotter pin until adjustment procedure in STEPS 11 to 13. Repeat STEPS 5 and 6 for second lifting rod.

STEP 7: ATTACH LIFT ARMS TO AXLE

Attach the lift arm(#5) to the wheel axle(#1) using M12 x 110mm hex bolt(A) and M12 nylock nut(G). See figure 7. Repeat on opposite side.

Usage Note: Note the lift arm offset in figure 7. Assembling lift arms with the offset towards inside will make a narrower space when raking. Narrow space is recommended when using Sweeper attachment.
