SOLENOID BRAKE VALVE

Install a so lenoid valve on the mou nting bracket with the supplied hardware as shown
in the Parts Section in this manual. While installing the fittings to the brake valve, the
electical coil on the spool may have to be removed to make room. When reinstalling the
coil, it is important to use no more than 5 f t. lbs. (or 60in. lbs.) torque. WARNING: OVER
TORQUE TO THE COIL WILL RESULT IN HYDRAULIC FAILURE OF SPOOL. (ASM-C-
0025)
TEMPERATURE GAUGE MOUNTING (OPTIONAL)
Mount the temperature gauge where it is clearly visible to the operator. Attach the
green (-) wire from the negative post on the gauge to a grounded bolt on the tractor
frame. Remove paint if needed to make a good ground. Remove the pipe plug from the
side of the hydraulic reservoir and install the temperature sensor using thread sealing
tape. Run the white wire from the (s) sensor post of the gauge to the temperature sensor
on the hydraulic reservoir tank. (ASM-C-0051)

MAIN FRAME INSTALLATION

With an overhead hoist and / or jack-stands, raise one side of the frame up to the
correctly matching mounting holes. Install capscrews and all other hardware as shown in
main frame parts section to secure the sides of the main frame to the tractor casting, DO
NOT tighten at this time. Remove the cap screws one at a time and apply a thread locking
agent. Reinsert the capscrews and tighten / torque to values noted in the torque chart
located in the maintenance section of this manual. (ASM-C-0003)

AXLE BRACE MOUNTING

the matching mounting holes in the main fame and rear axle housin g. Note the right sid e
brace is installed on out side edge of the main frame and the lef t side brace is inst alled on
the inside edge of the main frame. Pictures below show right side brace installation.
Install the clamp plate with capscrews, washers and nuts as shown in the main frame
parts section. Apply Loc-Tite to the threads and torque to the values noted in the torque
