SET-UP DIRECTIONS
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
• Use at least two people to uncrate & assemble
the unit. The cutter and its components are very
heavy.
UNCRATING
• Using a hammer and pry bar, separate the boards
of the crate starting with the top. Use caution to
not damage the equipment inside the crate.
• Always wear gloves and safety glasses when
disassembling the crate.
ASSEMBLY DIRECTIONS
1. Check that all parts are present before beginning
assembly. See page 13
2. Place 2” Coupler 15 over Hitch Bar 17 . Fasten
as shown using (2) 3/8-16 x 2” Bolts 9 , (4) 3/8
washers 5 , and (2) 3/8-16 lock nuts 3 .

Assembly A . Attach the Hitch Bar with (1) ¾-
10 x 4 ½” Bolt 11 , (2) ¾ Washers 6 , and (1)
¾-10 Lock Nut 4 . Fasten the hardware tightly
using one 1-1/8” wrench/socket (bolt) & one
1-1/16” wrench/socket (nut). The Hitch Bar
should be able to pivot up and down freely and
have no side to side play. If the Hitch Bar will
not pivot up and down, loosen the Nut slightly.

4. Run the Wire Harness along the top of the Hitch
Bar 17 18 and fasten using the supplied U-
bolts 14 . Be sure to leave enough slack at the
pivot locations so hitch can freely offset
without placing tension on the wire harness.
Dimensions given are just for reference. Actual
U-bolt locations may vary by tow vehicle.
