Product Manual

Note: The actuator can develop 1500 lbs of force. Watch to make sure that when the
actuator cylinder is being lowered for alignment that it does not come in contact with
the engine or other items that could be potentially damaged.

5. Stand back and activate the appropriate “up” switch. Raise the mower to its highest position
and stop. At this time securely tighten the 1/2” x 3” hex head bolts, lock washers and nuts
holding the upper actuator supports in place. This step insures that proper alignment of the
carrier arms has been achieved, which will allow the deck to raise and lower level from side to
side.
D. INSTALLATION OF THE LIFT CONTROL WIRING ASSEMBLY
1. Using the provided “U” bolts, securely fasten the lift control panel to the tow vehicle. On most
ATVs, the “U” bolts will allow easy installation on the rack.
2. There are two separate electrical cables extending from the lift control panel. There should be
a cable that contains battery clips and another cable that has a connector attached to the end.
Attach the connector side to the actuator connector. Attach the battery clips to the appropriate
terminals on the tow vehicle battery (red attaches to the positive terminal and black to the
negative terminal).
Note: Extra electrical cable length can be purchased (Extension Cable Part #235067) if
needed. In some applications it may be necessary to have extra length to reach the
battery or reposition the lift control panel.
3. Securely fasten the electrical cable that extends back to the actuator. Using the provided
plastic ties, fasten the cable to the upper actuator support, carrier arms and tongue. Excess
cord should be left at the point of the tongue and hitch pivot to allow for tongue adjustments.
Position the disconnect plug such that it can be easily disconnected when the mower is
removed from the rear of the tow vehicle.
