Spread ends of bumper enough to fit slots onto bolts in

rear mounting holes in tractor frame.

The bumper has three mounting holes. The rear hole
provides the most clearance while the forward holes
provide a neater appearance. Use a hole that provides

enough clearance for hood to stay in raised position
when opened. Insert a hex bolt (C) through tractor frame
and into desired mounting hole on each side of bumper
and secure with a hex nut (D).

IMPORTANT: Before fully tightening nuts, be sure tractor
hood will stay in raised position when opened.
