ATTACHING SWEEPER TO TRACTOR

(Figure 4)

Replace existing step on 2-way angle mount of tractor with shorter step supplied with sweeper. Remove cotter pin on end of step rod and slide out. Install shorter step and replace rod and cotter pin. Keep existing step for use with mower decks if desired.

Attach sweeper mount (2) to the holes in tractor mount- ing bracket (1) that allow the broom mount assembly to set in a level position.

Secure mount to tractor by rotating attaching pins (3) rearward to lock pins into place.

Connect the PTO sleeve and yoke to rectangular shaft of sweeper mount. Attach PTO to shaft on tractor.

Refer to instruction in SweepsterR manual and make sure the broom is level prior to operation.

nector (A) to ease installation. Disconnect the wiring harness from the tractor at this point when removing the broom from the tractor. Rear section of wiring har- ness may remain on tractor at all times.

Secure relay and connector to tractor frame using plas- tic wire ties through holes near seat hinge.

Attach T-tap securely to a purple wire, directly behind the ignition switch, inside the console. Connect the short black pigtail to the T-tap and install a 7.5 amp auto fuse into the slot. Route the black harness lead into the console through the hole near the seat hinge. Connect the pigtail to the black lead from harness.

Attach eyelet of green wire to negative post of battery. Attach eyelet of red wire with fuse holder to positive post of battery.

Route wires and secure them with wire ties so they are clear of all moving parts of the tractor.

When using the broom for de-thatching, bolt the caster wheel assemblies to each side of the broom head using existing bolts in the broom head. The broom's height can be adjusted by placing spacers on wheel forks above or below the fork housings.
